General Atwood.


The Mauston Star, in recent article
reviewing the claims of the several candi-
dates for Governor of Wisconsin, pays the
following well deserved compliment to
General Atwood, senior editor of the State
Journal
"There is no man in the State for whom
the Republican party of Wisconsin has
reason to entertain profounder feelings Oh
gratitude than to Mr.. Atwood. Through
all the vexatious vicissitudes of party dis
sensions; through all the fiery ordeals the
party has undergone, in peace and war;
through every gigantic political trial that
the editor of an official State paper is bur.
dened with in more years of service than
the party is of age, General Atwood has
stood invariably firm as granite for what
he has conceived to be right; and the re-
suit has shown that in every instance he
has been right. We do not recollect an
instance in all the history of the party,
(and we have known him and read him
constantly all the while,) in which his
Judgment has been in error, nor the rectl-
tude of his arguments shown fallacious:
Of powerful abilities, both as writer and
speaker. affable and truly dignified, with
the gift of con0incing when he reasons;
versatile, far-seeing. cautious, he has been
a grand guide indeed and the Republi-
cans are few who have not come to know
his worth, or to recognize him as tow
er of strength, and a safe anchor to tie to.
In regard to integrity, ability, and every
requisite for proper Executive, we GER
tainly believe he has not superior in the
State" Ui.t4.5 i

Hon. Anthony Van Wyck.

The Waukesha Freeman strongly urges
this gentleman for the Governorship, and
says: jig.
"There appears to be some earnest cleo
tioneering for Fairchild, Thompson and
Gen. Atwood. None of them, however,
appear to stand as good chance for the
nomination as Mr.. Van Wyck Some of
the ablest papers in the State are urging
HIM forward, and we are very sanguine
of his nomination. We know of no man
whose character is as irreproachable, who
is as free from political rings and low par
tizan trckeries, and who is as competent
and honest, as Mr.. Van Wyck. The people
of Wisconsin demand the best man in the
State for their chief executive, one who is
fearless to do right, and one whose ability
and honesty comport with the dignity and
intelligence of the people. His nomination
would reflect honor upon the State, and
his election would be certain"

A County4Superintendent of Schools is
to be nominated at the Convention next
Wednesday. 1t is understood that the
present efficient incumbent Samuel Parks,
Esq, would accept denomination. We
hear of no other Republican candidate.
Mr.. P. has made the best Superintendent
we have ever had in the county, and we
do not think that the interests of the
county wouldabe advanced by change at
this time.
"a Memberrof Assembly for the north
ern district is.also to be nominated. We
hear Of no other name likely to DE present
ed to the Convention but that of Hon.
VIM. E. Rowe, of Arena. He made a
good member last winter, and would make
better enc next.

SsgH The Prescott Journal urges the
claims of Hon. W. j. Copp, Of Pierce
county. for the nomination of Lieutenant
Governor, September LIST. Mr.. G. is one
of the heavy men of the 9th district, and
if that section is to have the honor of fur
nishing the next Lieutenant Governor, we
hope lie aciU be the man. He g is well
known as man of high character and ac-
knowledged ability, an experienced legis-
lator, and a good parlimentarian. His
years. of service, in both branches Of the
legislature render him eminently fit to
discharge the duties of presiding officer of
the Senate with credit to himself and that
honorable body. One of the pioneers of
the Republican party in the Northwest, he
has ever been among the representative
men of the 9th district, and if long and
faithful service is esteemed of any value,
then is he fairly entitled to some reward
at the hands of his friends" s.

RECONSTRUCTION.


The work of restoring State Gov
ernmeuts loyal to the Union, Of pro-
tecting and fostering free labor, and
providing means for paying the IN
terest on the public debt, hasreceived
ample attention from Congress-
Although our efforts have not met
with the success, in all particulars,
that might have been desired, yet
on the whole they have been more
successful than could have been reas-
onably anticipated. Seven States
which passed ordinances of secession
have been fully restored to their
places in the Union. The eigth,
Georgia. held an election, at which
she ratified her Constitution, repab-
lican in form, elected Governor,
members of Congress, State Legls-
lature, and all other officers required.
The Governor was duly installed,
and the legislature met and perform
ed all the acts therein required OF
them by the reconstruction acts of
Congress. Subsequently, however,
in violation of the Constitution which
they had Just ratified-as since de-
cided By the Supreme Court Of the
State-they unseated the colored
members Of the Legislature, and adj
mitted to seats some members who
arc disqualified by the third clause
IN the 14th Amendment to the
Constitution, an article which they
themselves had contributed to ratify.
/ Under these circumstances, | would
submit to you whether it would not
be wise, without delay, to enact a
/ law authorizing the Governor OF
| Georgia to convene the members
/ originally elected, requiring each
member to take the oath prescribed
I by the Reconstruction act, and none
70 be admitted who are Ineligible
under the third clause of the 14th
Amendment.
At the March term, Congress by
Joint resolution authorized the Fix
eoutive to order an election in The
States of Virginia, Mississippi and
Texas, to submit to them the consti-
tutions which each had previously
framed and submitted-tbe consti
tuition either entire or in separate
parts TO be voted upon at the dlscre
ton of the Executive. Under thit
authority elections were called il
Virginia The election took plact
on the 9th of July, 1869. The Gov
ernor and Lieutenant Governor
elected, have been installed. Th'
legislature met and did all required
/ by this resolution and by all the re
construction acts of Congress, al,
absiained from all doubtful authority
/ / recommend that her Senators an
Representatives be recognized, anC
that the State be fully restored TO III
place in the family OF States. Elec
tons were called in Mississippi ant
I Texas, to commence on the 30lh Q
/ November, 1869, aud to last tive
days in Mississippi and four days il
/ Texas. The elections have taker
place, the result is not known. 1t
TO be hoped that the acts Of th'
Legislatures of these States, wher
they meet, will be such as to receive
j your approval and thus close tn,
work OF reconstruction.
