positions and in public life. And he il
a man of good habits No one need fea1
that Isaac L. Johnson, as Assemblyman
will do descredit to his constituent, by
any uncomcly exhibition of himself at
any saloon in Madison where intoxicating
liquors are sold or even free, as it was re.
ported ofsome members of the Legislature
at its last session. The times call for the
election to office of men of good habits as
we'll as of good abilities, and in Isaac l..
johnson the people are sure of both. He
will make an able member of the Legisla-
ture, and will do credit to himself nd
his constituents. He has been nominated
without any solicitation or even expecta-
ton on his part, but being nominated, he
desires and expects the support of his
friends and the Republican party. And,
if his Republican friends do their duty
now and on election day, he will be
elected by some hundred majority.
T. V. Mcguire OF Paris now holds the of
flee OF County Superintendent Of Schools
by appointment of Governor Fairchild
Holding the office by che Governors ap
pointment, and seeming to be the most
suitable person in the county to hole the
office, the Republican Convention being
first held, first nominated him, and then
the Democrats nominated hun. Being
nominated by both parties, if both par.
ties support him in good faith, as no
doubt they will, there can be no doubt
of his election. Holding the office by
the Governors appointment, and being
qualified for the office, and receiving the
support of all parties, and being elected
without opposition, he ought to make a
good and efficient Superintendent And
we trust that he and the people-residents
and officers of School Districts-will act
unitedly, tremendously and efficiently
for the best interest OF our Public
Schools, for the promotion of Education
and for the General Welfare.

MARINE DISASTERS. The Propeller r.
G. Coburn of the Superior line, from
Duluth with cargo of wheat, -four,
silver ore, and sandrles, with twenty to
Thirty passengers, and crew Of about
thirty, foundered on Saturday night the
I4th, on Lake Huron. AS the propeller
was going down after daylight Sunday
morning part of the crew and passen-
gers took the boats and part remained
on the hurricane deck which separated
from the steamer as she went down. The
boats and wreck soon separated, and
about the middle of the afternoon the
bark Robert Gaskin bore down on one Of
the boats containing ten persons, took
them on board, and transferred them to
the Keweenaw Monday morning.
The Wisconsin of the goth says:
The propeller Brooklyn arrived at De-
troit Thursday afternoon, and reports
that two more boats, containing eighteen
persons from the lost steamer r. G..
Coburn, nave been picked up by pas
sing vessel and transferred to propeller,
and taken to Mackinaw. There ale
about twenty persons still missing. The
commander, Gilbert Demont, of Detroit,
and State Agent Smith and wife, also Of
Detroit, were undoubtedly drowned, as
also were all the women on board.
A dispatch from Kiucardine, Ont,
Saturday, says:
"Portions Of the wrecked cargo of the
propeller Coburn are coming ashore
Two bodies were picked up on the
backbone a mulatto, the other young
man dressed in grey suit" ,ason0
| The schooner r.. p. Mason, which ran
ashore on the southwest side of Crane
Island, on the 9th, was pulled off by the
wrecking tug Leviathan on Saturday
evening l4th. After she was afoat vio-
lent gale set in from the southwest, caus-
ing a heavy sea, and it was deemed adj
visable to make an effort to reach Little
Traverse Bay for shelter. But before
this could be accomplished, the Mason
rolled over and five of the crew were
lost, as follows: Capt. Thomas DAZZLE,
Martin Hanson, and two men known as
Hans and Louis, on the schooner Mason,
and VIM. Beebe, fireman on the Levia.

COMMUNICATION FROM T. ROBINSON
We publish to day a communication
from F. Robinson, Democratic candidate
for Assemblyman, in relation to himself
as candidate, and can apprehension Of
some voters Of this county that Kenosha
City entertains purpose of saddling
upon the county by unjust legislation it's
Indebtedness" Before seeing Mr.. Rob
inson's communication, or ever thinking
of such communication having an exis-
tence, we had written what we say Of the
Democratic candidates, and had said
that we did not think Mr.. Robin
son or his party desired to
SADDLE" the City Debt on the
county Having said so ourself, we
deemed it right to let Mr.. Robinson say
so if he wanted to. IF there is any in
tention of " saddling the City Debt on
the county it has not come to our knowl-
edge And, if it should ever come to our
knowledge, we shall oppose it. For,
however unjust the mourning of the City
Debt may have been, and the paying OF
it by the City may be, we hold that one
injustice, or even two, cannot justify an
other. So, if the city has justly or un
justly incurred debt, and has justly OF
unjustly to pay it, we hold that, even II
it could be done, which we deem impos
sible, it would be unjust to make the
county pay it. And wherever and when.
ever we see injustice we intend to oppose

AN URGENT CALL FROM MICH.
IGAN.

On the 18th. inst. Gov Baldwin of
Michigan, issued a proclamation to the
people of the State, saying that while
they had been contributing literally for
the relief for the sorely afflicted in Chi
cago, large sections of their own State
were being devastated by the same terri
ble scourgc of fire, running over several
counties, reducing thriving cities, towns
and villages to ashes, rendering thous-
ands houseless and homeless, and &C
knoWledging contributions from other
States, but saying that reliance must be
placed mainly on the people of their own
commonwealth, and called for liberal
contributions of money, clothing and
bedding, to be forwarded to one OF two
committees appointed to receive them.
On the Gath. an appeal to the people
of the United States comes from the
Michigan State Relief Committee in be-
half of the sufferers by fire in their State
Michigan has suffered severely and calls
loudly for help. And as the sections
most needing aid are not accessible by
railroad and navigation will soon be
closed what is done needs to be done
speedily.

Generally one good reason is enough.
There are two good reasons why Mr. McAff-
erty should receive a generous patronage
He is an Elocutionist ofsuperior abilities
and will give an equivalent for what he
receives. He is one Of the sufferers
by the Chicago fire, and has just claim
on the patronage and benevolence of the
people. And,as the people of Kenosha have
responded nobly to the claims of humanfy
and beDevOlence in contributing for the
relief of the sufferers by fire, we hope and
trust they will now respond nobly, and
give Mr., McAfferty q full house and a
generous patronage. ct is more blessed
to give than to receive" On the present
occasion the blessing to those who give
