But the editor of the Union does not waste
all his wrath upon the Senate. The House OF
Representatives is equally distasteful to him.
His yirtuous soul is vexed because the newly

This Institute promises to be one of the
grandest and noblcst institutions of the kind

organized and adopted plan which will meet
with hearty approval and earnest support
from all. This Company knowing from the
past that to raise funds by appeals to the
charitable public is slow and uncertain work
ottentimes resulting in total failure, have
adopted their present method for accomplish
ing this much desired result. Their plan is
to issue stock at one dollar per share. each

bestowed among the stockholders. Every

at the time OF purchase, but will also receive
a present at the distribution, there being no

An Important Decision in Wisconsin.

A most important decision was lately rem
dered by Judge Pulling, Of the Dodge circuit
in the trial OF the county seat case decided
that declarations OF intentions to become citizens
Of the United States, made before deDuty Clerks
Of Court mere illegal. As at least nine-tenths
of all such declarations in this State have
been made before deputy clerks, it will be seen
at once that consequences of great magnitude
are involved. The case, for it involves the
right OF full y third Of the electors of this
State to vote, and we venture the opinion
that, if the decision is sustained there has not
sheen legally impaneled jury in the State for
IeFeral years. Judge Pulling is a much better
aWyer thana man who never read a page in a
law book; but we will venture the predicfinn
that his decision will not be sustained. II is
not good sense, if it is the law, that DENNY
clerk cannot perform any official act thai ths
principal can. We advise our foreign citizens

REcoNsTRUcTIoN.-Cong has passed
supplementary reconstruction bill which is
SO plain, that it will need no stanberian plat
itudes to tell us what it means. The bill as
passed is that of the Senate, which we pub
lished last week with some verbal amend
ments. 1t declares the State Governments es-
tablished in the rebel states by Mr.. johnson,
illegal, and their officers, subject in all re-
spects, to the Military Commanders OF the re-
spectiye districts. 1t gives commanding Off
GERS in their respective districts power to sus-
pend or remove all officers under those pre-
tended State Governments, and to appoint
Others in their places, only subject to the APP
proval Of the General of the army. For fur
ther particulars we refer to the bill which we
published last week.
