between corrupt, republican aud an up

them both" Things ARE Frightening

Mn. RICE, Mayor Of Boston, by an un-
fortunate dullness Of apprehension,
missed Cabinet-oflico the other day.
While showing the President through the
Jubilee rink, Ulysses remarked: "This
would make good barn; wish l had it,
Rice couldn't see the point-not by those
lamps-and consequently neglected to
present the barn to his covetous visitor.
Otherwise, he might have succeeded the
extinct Borie.alis.

IT gratifying to know, from Grants
own lips, as the people Of Boston did on
tho 10th, that Massachusetts, has done so
much for his support, and that her pin
ciplcs did so much to give him whatever
political position he has attained. Not
another State would care to DO thus
l,onored, but it will be new to most poo
pie that Massachusetts, has principles.

A Defaulter.

The people Of the county will be sur
prised to hear that Geo. H. Otis, late Clerk
Of the Board of Supervisors, of this coun-
~ is defaulter to the sum of $4453,O2.
at the time Of settlement with the County
Board, the accounts showed the above
amount in the Clerks hands. On the ad-
iournment of the board Otis went to Min
eral Point, where he said he had the money,
promised to get it, bring it out, and delv-
er it oyer to his successor. On his return
he reported that he had loaned the money,
but had the securities for it, and would see
the matter Strengthened in few days.
He taen went to Madison, and as no steps
were being taken to settle up, the affair
soon leaked out The sureties became
alarmed and sent to Madison for him. He
camedown, and promised to pay the money
over Immediately. He went to Mineral
Point, but on returning he produced no
,neney and being: closely pressed, he had
to acknow ledge that he.had not the money,
could not get it, and consequently could
not pay it over. That he had never lent
it, and had nothing to show for it. That
he had deliberately lied to his successor
and the members Of the board. He then
retired, packed his, trunks, and streaked
off between two days, and that probably is
the last the people of Iowa county will
have to do with Major George II. Otis.
He may be arrested, tried and convicted OF
embezzlement, and sent to state prison but
we don't know. The County Board held
special meeting on Monday last. The
attorneys for the surct,es of Otis for both
terms were present. The sureties for the
last term refuse to pay the whole of the
delalcation, and the sureties of the first
term claim that they were released on Otis
settlement with the Board at the end of the
first term. The County Board authorized
the District Attorney to commence suit
against the sareties for the recovery of the
dedication.
The county will probably not lose any
thing but the cost of the suit to recover
the MONEY, as the sureties are ample.
We had faith in Geo.. II. Otis, we be-
lieved him an honest man, we worked as
hard for his reelection as any man in the
county; and were disappointed when he
was defeated. But he was not the man
we gave him credit for being, and now we
are only sorry he was not defeated the
first and second time. He has betrayed
the trust of his best friends; cheated and
swindled those who had the utmost con-
fidence in him, and were willing to put
their own property in jeopardy for his
benefit. We have no more confidence in
him, and not quite assmuch in mankind in

Wisconsin Chief Justice.

The State Journal of the 2sth ult. con-
tanned call requesting Judge Dixon to
become candidate for reelection, and
says he was reelected last spring for
the short term by large majority. He
has been on the Supreme Bench for ten
years, and has given general satisfaction
to the people. He is an able and expert
enced jurist, man of the strictest integ.
rity, and as judge impartial and fearless.
He ought to be reelected without opposi-
ton, and we think there will be no serious
effort made against him."
The call. which was accepted, was signed
by the 10 Republican Senators, and Ga
Republicans of the Assembly. The cleo.
ton occurs in April, and is for the full
term of six years.

Governor Fairchild.

Governor Fairchild's last annual mes
sage is receiving the highest commenda-
ton from the press, and fair men Of all
parties throughout the State. Wisconsin
never had a Governor who had more wor-
thily filled the executive chair than he.
He is ardently attached to the State which
has heaped 50 many honors upon him !;
and his untiring zeal in her behalf and her
public institutions and improvements,
show that the public confidence has not
been misplaced. No local pride or sec
tional hostility or jealousy finds place in
his bosom. He is Governor of the whole
State, and every public measure or enter
prise which interests any section or local
ty, finds words of encouragement from
him. Our benevolent and educational in
stitutions are all sources Of State pride to
him, and we rejoice in their progress. A
hospital in Milwaukee which relieves the
needy a school in Racine, which educates
the youth Of the State; railroad in the
northwestern part Of the State which as
sists in developing its resources the Fox
and Wisconsin Rivers improvement, run.
ming through the whole State. and of the
most momentous Importance to it; and
every other public measure-all alike find
a steadfast friend in our Governor AS
before remarked, no local jealousies find a
place in his official action. 1t is this de-
votion to all parts of the State. alike, and
to all Of the State enterprises, which makes
him 50 popular with the people, and which
so richly enltle him to the unbounded
confidence reposed in him. We can wish
our people no better than to wish that they
may always have Governor so devotedly
attached to every measure which will ad.
vance the public interest as Governor
