FAIRBURG, Oct. H.-Governor Oglesby, Deca-
tur:-At Potosi pole has been raised with two
butternuts on the top. An armed force of
Democrats and Republicans has collected, one
party TO take IL down, the other opposing. The
matter is serious. Both agree to await your de.
ciston. Shall they come down or remain?

DECATUR. ILL.,, Oct. 15.-Hay & Mason, Phil
lips d Mcdowell, Fairburg, Ill.:=My opinion is
that the Democrats acted very silly In raising q
pole OF such character as to make their party
odious, and that the Republicans are acting
very silly in getting mad and resorting to ex-
treme measures about IL. Let no gun be fired,
no man be hurt. The Republicans must deslst
and go home quietly. The Democrats must do
the same.
The Democrats ought to take down the pole,
assure the Republicans that they do not
mean, by this symbol, what II once meant In
this way peace can be restored, the Republicans
be brought 10 reason, and the Democrats can
have their butternuts.
