NEW TERRITORIES "A bill has been
introduced into the Senate Of the United
States to divide the state of Texas and
to make Of its surplus area two new ter
ritories, for which the names of Jeffer-
son and Matagorda are suggested. The
bill contemplates the division of the pres
ent State into three parts-the portion
east of the San Antonio and Trinity riv-
ers, containing, by the census of 1860
about two hundred and thirty thousand
Inhabitants, to be called the territory of
Jefferson; that portion between those
rivers and the Colorado river to consti-
tute the State of Texas, which space, in
1860, contained about two hundred aad
fifty thousand inhabitants, black and
white; and all west Of the western bound
airy line Of that State, embracing, by the
census Of 1860, about one hundred and
fifteen thousand inhabitants, to be de-
nominated the territory of Matagorda.
The present State embraces an area of
237, 500 square miles of territory, or sJl{li-
Gent to make four States larger than
Wisconsin, or three States of nearly &c.,
900 square miles each.

EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT !
MADISON, Wis, Feb IA, $780,
1o the Honorable. the Legislature.
FOR the purpose Of avoiding the many
evils arising from private and local leg
islation, respectfully suggest for your
consideration an amendment to the Con-
stitutlon of this State which shall pro-
hibit the Legislature from enacting any
special or private laws in the following
enumerated cause:
1st. For changing the names of persons or consti-
tuting one person the heir at-law of another.
I'd. For laying out opening and altering highways,
except in of State roads extending into more
than county and military roads to aid in the
construction Of which lands may be granted by Con-
gress.
Sd. For authorizing persons to keep ferries across
streams, at points wholly within the State,
4th For authorizing the sale of real or per-
sona property OF minors or others, under DISABLE
ity.
9th. For locating changing any county seat
9th For assessment or collection of taxes.
1th Granting corporate powers and privileges ex-
cept to cities
6th For authorizing the apportionment of any
part of the school fund.
9th. For incorporating any town or village, or
amending the charter thereof.
And to provide on all the above men
toned subjects the law shall be general
and of uniform operation throughout the
State.
1t needs no argument to show that
special laws on these subjects are seldom
| necessary. Under general laws, towns
and villages can be incorporated, man
ufacturing and other corporations form
ed, taxes assessed and collected, the
school fund apportioned, and county
seats changed upon a vote Of the peo-
pie. In all cases relating to changes of
| names, constituting one person the heir
at law of another, laying out Of roads,
licensing of ferries, authorizing the sale
Of lands Of minors and others under dis
ability, ample powers are now conferred
by law under courts and boards of su-
pervIsors, which are manifestly more
competent 30 legislate upon matters so
purely private and local, and can act
upon them more cautiously and consid-
erately and more in accordance with the
sentiment OF the community.
Such an amendment would save the
State great item OF expense, and reduce
the legislation of the State at least two
thirds. The Legislature thus released
from load of profitIess labor would be
left free to deal only with matters of
general concern, and to give them the
fullest considerations

The Committee on Public Expendi-
lures recently called tor a report of all
the money expended ON the public build,
ings in Washington since the foundation
of the government to the end of the last
fiscal year, and received for answer that
the amount was $43, 726, $50. This is an
argument against the removal of the cap
ital west, which IS very potent now and
will be until our public debt is less by
many millions than it is at present. When
our debt is paid and the nation is richer
and our population larger it will do to
talk of casting aside the buildings that
have been erected at such an enormous
expense, and building new ones some
where near the center of population

GENTLEMEN =


GENTLEMEN -
Since the year 1854, from which the
Republicans date their existence. the
people of the village of Manitowoc have
chung faithfully to that party, and though
surrounded by surging ocean of oppos,
ing clements, they have stuck unfater-
ing to its principles and fought its battles
VIGOROUSLY.
For what they have done and still are
dong under increasing difficulties, thew
never have claimed any favors or even
an acknowledgment. With the idea thai
the Republican party is that &C pro
gress, political honesty and general vel
fare. our people have adhered to it with
out the least selfish considerations. but
only those for the welfare of the greatest
majority.
In this sense, and only in this sense, W.
now address ourselves for the first time
to the Republican Representatives of the
people of Wisconsin. We DO not ask q
them one dollar in money from the treas
ury, not one acre of land from the publ,
domain, we ask nothing but our rights a.

Changed.

changed.
We apprehend the fact is not generally
known that Congress. at its last session,
passed an act changing the time for cleo
ting congressman to the second Tuesday
in October-all the States voting on the
same day. \ proposition is before our
State legislature to change the time for
our fall elections to the same day, thus
saving the necessity for taoo elections. 1t
cannot take effect next fall. as it will re
quire constitutional amendment, but our
next Congressman will have to be chosen
in October
The following is the law of Congress,
recited in resolution to amend the State
constitution.
WHEREAS, The Congress of the Uni
ted States has passed the following: "a

much OF the law relative the election of Pres-
dent and EicePresiden of the United States and de-
clarng the officer who shall President in

tatives in Congress from this State,
