weather and the bad state of the roads, a
large concourse of people from various
parts of the county assembled at Chlopek' 8
Hall to do honor to the day.
About noon, large procession formed at
the Hall, under the direction of WENzEI
CHLoUPEK, Esq. Marshal of the Day, and,
headed by the Kossuth Band, marched
along the Green Bay road to the Town Hall,
and then returned AS soon as the
audience had entered the spacious Hall,
which was beautifully decorated, the Presi-
dent of the day, Mr.. VIM. EAToUGH, called
the assemblage to order-N. NELSON,
Esq, acting as Secretary-and in a few
brief remarks introduced JOHN ROBINSON,
Esq, of Kossuth, who read the Declaration
of independence in good style. After
which, HENRY SIBREE, ESQ.,, of Manito-
woo, was introduced as the orator in Eng
lish. He spoke extemporaneously, and his
effort is said to have been historical, elo-
quent, and every way suitable for the oc-
casion. The large audience listened to him
attentively, and warmly applauded him
throughout. Capt. ADoLPH WHITMAN
then delivered an oration in German,
which was we'll received and is highly
spoken of by those who understood it.
CHARLES SALAK, Esq, then addressed the
meeting in the Bohemian language, and
was greeted with applause by those present
who understood his language. This con-
cluded the speaking.
Patriotic airs we're played by the Band
between the speeches; and after vote of
thanks to the several speakers, those who
desired proceeded to the dining room,
where was spread one of the most substan-
tial boards of admirably cooked edibles that
ever was partaken of in this section of
country.
Immediately thereafter, the dancing hall
opened and the light tripping of nimble
feet to the exhilerating strains of soft music
continued till broad daylight on the morn
ing of the 5th.
The large hall was crowded to its utmost
capacity, yet everything was orderly and
peaceable. The management of the whole
celebration reflects great credit upon all
those who got it up, and gave, We are told,
universal satisfaction.

DEATH OF Ex-Gov. KING.-Ex- Govern
or JOHN A. KING, of New York, died at
his residence on Long Island on the 7th.-
In his death the country loses another Of
the statesmen of the old school-men whose
views of public policy were based on the
firm ground of the constitution, and who
could not bring themselves to acquiesce in
the idea Of modern political Jesuits that
the end justifes the means. Governor
KING was in politics whig and since the
dissolution Of that party, has taken no act
i've part in politics, though he has been by
no means disinterested looker-on in the
struggle which has driven the nation from
the republicanism Of its better days.

AN UGLY VARMINT. old French
man while hunting week ago last We'd
nesday three miles north of Two Rivers,
came across large lynx. The hunter s
dog freed him, alter which the old gentle
man peppered him with the contents of
both barrels Of his gun, which brought him
to the ground. He was then captured, not,
however, without severe struggle. The
body was brought to the Pilot Office on
Saturday, and throughout the day was vis-
tied by many persons, among them old
hunters, all of whom pronounced it the
largest animal Of the species they had ever
seen. The body was five feet long, and
when alive must have stood three feet high.
We regret that we could not have it pre-.
served for the benefit of Col. UTLEY, of the
Racine Journal.

GONE AND DID IT-According to figures
made by our School Superintendent, there
were sixty seven school teachers married in
this county during the past year-ffy-four
females, and thirteen males. Our school
ma ans must have more than ordinary at
fractions about them. Some old maids that
we know of should learn the art of teach
ing, or we fear they will never have an op-
portunity of teaching their own children.

The Grand Jury System,

| OuT OouTC cIOSeu lCS IdDOTlOuS
session of one week last Saturday. The
most interesting feature of that term, was,
IN my opinion, the transaction of the Grand
jury, who, as [ am informed, came very
near finding true bills against two of our
County Supervisors, and would have fully
succeeded, had it not been for the recanting
of one of the witnesses, who swore to sew
eral facts on the first day of his examina-
ton and took it all back the next. On
which of these two days did the man COM
init perjury? [ am sorry that the Grand
jury did not succeed, but still hope it will
have some effect on our electors. so that
hereafter they will vote for men of known
integrity and not 60 the democratic ticket
blind, as has been the case with the major
ity of our people. l hope also that it will
be at least warning to those two supervis-
ors and induce them to allow the accounts
| brought before them only when they find
| that they are correct, and not wait until
sufficient has been added to pay them a
good percentage. hope further that this
giving the advertising of the delinquent
taxllsrs to the German paper, with yearly
expense OF hundreds of dollars to the coun-
ty, will be put stop to- in short, that
money will not buy appropriations from
the county fund IS any further. [ might say
more on this subject, but hoping that the
above may have the desired effect, forbear
for the present. Last Weeks Tribune.
If any evidence was wanting that the
present Grand Jury system was farce and
humbug, the above should supply it.
Men who are themselves fit subjects for the
State Prison get on grand jury, and for
a petty spite against their more honest
neighbors, who can not defend themselves
before the secret inquisition, trump up
some false charge against them, summon
witnesses, spend the peoples money, and
then the charge dies away in smoke. In
the meantime, every man liz town is aware
that the charge has been made, and how
ever innocent the accused may be, his rep
utation is injured for the time being. But
he has no redress. He must grin and bear
it. The grand jury is King.
In the case referred to in the Tribune, if
we are correctly informed, the facts are as
follows: The County Board of Supervis-
ors refused to allow the account of certain
person which it thought was wrong. This
person, to avenge himself upon the Board,
goes before the grand jury and makes an
information. The grand jury goes to work,
and summons before them every man in
town or county who ever had conversation
or business with the Board, and after five
days labor bring forth what-not an indict-
mo hrf ~ Xlo,-
Board is proved innocent, but the SANDER
has travelled far and near, and there is no
redress for them. But what of that? Their
enemies gained the point they were after
They did not expect to prove anything, but
made tool of the grand jury to assist
them in spreading the libel.
The States of Michigan and Vermont
have wisely abolished the nefarious system.
Good men. everywhere pray fer its de-
struction throughout the land.

AHUMBUe.-In the Daily Wisconsin, of
the 9th we find long article purporting to
be history of the location, business &C..
of Manitowoc, written by penny-a-liner
named REED, who visited here two or three
weeks ago, and left with pile of green
backs fooled out of the pockets of our citi-
zens. The article alluded to is full of blum
ders, commissions and omissions. Among
the latter, he says Manitowoc contains three
churches-The Presbyterian, Episcopal and
Methodist-and fails to mention that we
have Catholic, German Lutheran, Bap-
tist, German Methodist, and Norwegian
Lutheran. He gives us credit for three,
when we should have eight. We have not
time to point out other blunders, and will
conclude by saying the author is what We
took him to be-a light-fngered fanatic,
who cares more for dollars than for truth
and honesty, and who goes on the principle

MARINE.-Several vessels have laid up
and repaired and repainted in our port dur.
ing the last couple of weeks. The schoon-
er Sea Gem, Capt. ALBRIGHT, has received
new coat of paint throughout, making
her look like gem indeed, and she is now
undoubtedly the handsomest craft of her
size that floats on the lakes.
The new vessels now building here are
all progressing finely. The new steamer
Manitoacoc will soon be ready to LAUNCH,
judging from the busy manner in which
they are at work on her. The new three
masted vessel of JOHNSON & GooDENow
is also nearly ready to launch and the new
barges Planet and Dduid Smoke will be
ready ere many days to 60 forth and coin
money for their owners. The barges have
each one mast, after the fashion of the lake
propellors, which can be used in fair wealth
er, Or in getting into port should any acei-
dent happen to the towing craft. The
Smoke, although large craft and capable
of carrying large load, draws but about
twenty -four inches of water, light. The
Planet draws about seven feet, but on about
eleven feet she will be able to carry a tre-
mendous load.
A New VESSEL Capt. BURMEIsTER,
who, it will be remembered, lost the little
schooner Byron last Spring, by collision
on the Lake, has contracted with Captain
HERBRIDGE, Of Depere, for the building of
new vessel, TO be out by the Goth of Au-
gust. Her dimensions are 45 feet keel, 13
feet beam, and AZ feet hold Capt. B. in

hope his business will be large enough to
make up for his Spring loss in short time.

 For restoring hair upon bald heads (from whatever cause it may have fallen outl and forcing growth of hair upon the face. it has no equal. It will force the beard te grow up- on the smoothest face in from five to eight weeks, or hair upon bald heads in from two 10 three months. A few ignorant practitioners have asserted that there is nothing that will force or hasten the growth of the hair or beard. Their assertions arc false as thousands of liv- ing witnesses (from their own experienced can bear witness. But many will say, how are to distinguish the genuine from the spurious! It certainly is difficult, as nine-tentbs of the different Preparations advertised for the hair and beard are entirely worthless, and you al- ready may have thrown away large amounts in their purchase.
