OUR MADISON CORRESPONDENCE
MADISON, January 80, 1871.

aADISON, January 81, 1871.
Nothing of an extraordinary nature
has thus far occurred during the present
session Of the Legislature, to attract more
than the ordinary amount Of attention.
Among the many bills introduced during
the present session, is one, which has
been passed by the Senate, to repeal
chapter 1873, of the laws of 1870. This
law provides the payment of bounty
for the destruction Of lynxes, wolves and
wild cats, and was, of course, adopted
with view 10 benefit wool growers and
others, suffering from the depredations
of these animals. in counties where they
were prevalent. But the war has been
extended into the wilder portions Of the
state, where it is almost unpopulated, and
large numbers Of these animals have been
killed, and the bounty drawn under this
Law. In some portions Of the state, it is
stated by persons who have given this
matter attention that when the den Of a
she wolf is discovered, means are taken
to secure the Young without destroying
| the mother, as she is considered more
valuable to raise another litter. A very
large amount of money has been paid out
of the Treasury under the provisions of
| this law, averaging from $50 to 500 per
day. 1t is time this US less expenditure
Of the public funds were ended. The
wool growing interest, in my humble
opinion, will find means to protect them
selves against the depredations of these
animals, without the aid of the legislature
and the repeal of this law is desired by
all sober thinking people.
On Tuesday morning last, resolution
was offered in the Assembly, by MIR.
Thorn, of Fond du Lac, to inquire into
the propriety Of proceeding with con-
struction of the Insane Hospital at Csh-
kosh. Quite a lively discussion took
place between Messrs Thorn and Keenan,
in favor, and by MesSrs Merrill, Curtis,
Maxon and Judd against the resolution.
On being put to vote the resolution was
lost. The object Of the introduction of
this resolution. was mainly for the pur
pose of creating dissatisfaction with the
location Of the Hospital at Oshkosh -
Fond du Lac citizens desired the location
Of the asylum at their city, but failed,
and are jealous Of the good fortune of
their neighbor.
The following members were appoint
ed as the committee for the re appoint
ment Of the state into Assembly, Sena-
torial and congressional districts, viz:
Senators Cameron, GriswoId, Strong.
Foster, Belden, Burchard and Huebsch-
mann, and Assemblymen Field, Merrill,
.]elfers, Bowen, Ayers, McDill. Chase,
Fay, Maxon, Mcintosh and Barnard.
The resolutions and eulogies delivered
the 25th inst, on the death of Judge
Paine, by members Of the bar from all
parts of the state, were very impressive
ana appropriate. The appointment of
Judge ". ?. Lyon Of Racine, as Asso-
ciate Justice of the Supreme court seems
to give universal satisfaction. He is said
to be one Of the best read lawyers in the
state. He has been Judge of the LIST
circuit for number Of years, and hy his
appointment to the Supreme Bench, his
circuit lose valuable Judge. More anon.

The Manitowoc tribune. [volume] (Manitowoc, Wis.) 1866-1878, 1871-02-02
A RAYoF LIGHT FROM YE1E PAST
From the New York Tribune.

The theologicians who insist that
our Government rests upon an i'm
piled assumption or recognition Of
the Divine authority Of the chris
tan religion, and who seek to
make that recognition palpable by
an amendment to the Constitution,
will find a hard nut to crack in
the following provision of the trea-
ty Of Tripoli, made under the adj
ministration of Washington in 1896
when the fundamental principles
of the GOVERNMENT and the ideas
and purposes ofits founders were
yet fresh in the minds of the peo-
pie:
As the Government OF the United States is not in
any sense founded on the Christian religion: as it
has in itself character of ennity against the
laws, religion, tranquility of Musselmen (aIussel-
mans: and rs the said States never have entered
! into any or hostility against any Mohammedan
nation it Is declared by the parties that pretext
arising from religious opinions shall produce
any Interruption of the harmony existing between
thetwo countries.
To this declaration, which bears
the stamp of the Senate's approval
is appended the name of George
Washington, who, thought himself
christian, held that his religious
faith entitled him to no privileges
as a citizen that were not common
to all others, of whatever religious
telief. The declaration, moreover
for naught that appears, received
the assent of the whole American
people, as embodying an essential
and fundamental principle Of the
Government. It would seem to
have been well understood at that
day that, while the Government
was christian IN spirit, IN that it
recognized and proposed to vindi-
cate and maintain the equal rights
of men as set forth in the New les
lamont, it was at the same time not
Christian in any theological or dog
NAUTICAL sense, nor as comforting
any special rights or privileges
upon Christians as such. The
more the subject is agitated the
clearer viii this historical fact be-
come, and the more ready will all
good citizens be to acquiesce in a
principle which cannot be discard
ed without leading US directly and
inevitably back to a union of
Church and State.
The Government of the United
States, while it neither makes nor
eSacts any religious profession, is
yet Christian in spirit in proportion
as It seeks to establish justice. !"
to promote 'sthe general welfare, !"
aud to s'sccure the blessings of
liberty to ourselves and our posteri
ty; and it is needless that it
should be Christian in any other
sense. Nay, to make it Christian
in a degmatic and exclusive sense
would be to open the door to as
sumptions and practices incompati-
bic with the growth of Humanity

ITEMS oP PRoGREss IN 1S70.-The
South produced in 1870 1000, 600 bales
of cotton, against 100000 in 1869. but
it is supposed that the increased pro
ducts will bring no more money. At all
events, it will cheaper cotton goods
which viii be good thing.for the mass
of the people.
The country produced 1000, 600, 900
bushels of corn in 1870, at the rate of
% bushels per acre, against % bushels

corn products are worth as much as
our cotton products are at14 cents PEI

We produced about 500, 100000 Of
gold aud silver in 1870 and exported
slightly less than that amount. leaving
our imports of srecie as clean. It is
supposed that we have $500, coo, 00C

and the equal rights of the people,
and injurious if not fatal, to the
church itself.
Let those who imagine that a
nation can be made Christian by
Incorporating the letter of chris
tan creed into its Constitution re.
member the lessons of history.
The worst despotisms that have
ever cursed the world were admin
istered in the name and assumed
authority oe God. Even the reb-
els of our Southern States, when
they ssseceded" from the Union, in
corporated into their new Consti-
tuition, framed for the sustenance
and perpetuation of Slavery the
most solemn professions of rever-
ece foEGod and allegiance to his
laws. They ostentatiouHy chal-
lenged the attention Of the world
on this very ground, Boosting that
their Constitution was more re-
igious than that framed by Wash
ington and franklin and Jefferson ;
but no solennity of profession, no
ardor Of boasting, could avail to
hide the Atheism implied in the
profane and audacious attempt to
keep race forever in bondage.
Let us not, in the very hour of our
rejoicing over the downfall of the
civil authority Of the Church in the
Roman States, countenance the
attempt to remove the barriers
erected by our fathers against a
union of Church and State in this
Republic.

DEAR SIR: / am by birth an

American citizen. [ have thought fit
for the last five years to vote an
anti-English ticket, for the reason
that | considered the question Of
Protection of more Importance to
the American people than any 9th
er. I take it to mean self-presery-
alton, which is the first law Of ma
ture. We can look to no other
country for Protection to our in
dustry, and [ have naturally set
tied into the conviction that what
is good for us IN this connection IS
not very beneficial to that despot-
ism which rules my native country
with rod of iron of its own manu-
features of course.
I will be glad to distribute any
