1t is quite astonishing to hear
the postmasters ego over Horace
Greeley since his nomination.
They have suddenly found out
that Horace is a rascal, a thief, a
fool, an idiot, an ignoramus, a
blasphemer and everything that
is bad. Of course they have no
fear that he will be elected, or
that they will lose their nice fat
offices. Oh, my no? They only
shout for Grant because he is a
statesman, a christian, a Good
TempIer and an honest man =
That's all. It isn't because they
want to remain in the govern
ment service another four years,
as many foolish people suppose.

of secession, who would have given up the
contest to the south, as he repeatedly ad-
vised in his Tribune, who would have
abandoned the slaves to all the cruelties
their masters were capable of inf1ict-
ing, who opposed Lincoln with all the in

the head of the democratic party. Those
that have always been antagonistic to the
principles of our government. that have
taken for their creed that human slavery
and secession was right. and that the late
war was monstrous wrong. have now a
chance to vote for confusion, anarchy, ter
ror and despotism to their hearts content.
But in order for republican to support
the Greeley ticket, he will of necessity
be called upon to forget all the great and
noble issues of the late war with the reb-
els. He must sever every endearing tie
that is associated with that war. He must
forget his dead father, brother, or friend,
in fact when he is asked to vote for Gree
ley he is required to bury and forget every
thing that has been done by the American
people for the last ten years. For of such
is the kingdom of II. G.

GRANT AND GREELEY.-If we look to the
personal fitness, we find Grant the superb
or of Greeley. If we look for the assuran' Q
of steady and prudent administration, we
find it in Grant and not in Greeley. If
we lock to the elements which constitute
their support and shape the tendency of
their rule, we find behind Grant those
which have saved the country, and behind
Greeley those which have sought to des--
troy it. we look to the consequences
they presage, we find Grants election ma
king secure all that we have won, and CIV
ing the best promise of all that we desire,
while Greeley's would bring the enemies
of the nation to power and threaten the
gravest periIs. Can candid reasoning men
hesitate which to choose ?-Albany Erer-
ing Journal.

NoxIouS WEEDs.--We have been de-
sired to call the attention of farmers and
those in authority, TO the fact that noxious
weeds are steadily on the increase in this
county almost in every old fence corner
can be seen heavy crop Of burdock,
snapdragon, or the Canada thistle. These
nuisances will spread all over the county
in few years if something cannot be
done to put stop to their growth. There
is a stringent law against allowing these
noxious weeds to grow, and 1t should be
rigidly enforced. Everyone allowing them
to grow on his premises is subject to g
fine if the authorities should do their duty
in this respect.

STRANGE FIRE. About Q o'clock on
Wednesday morning last, barn belong
ing to Matthew Rogers, of this village, was
accidentally discovered to be on fire, by
some women who were watching with the
sick. The fire had already burst out
through the sides and roof before it was
discovered. The alarm was given but the
citizens being at that hour of the night
fast asleep, it was some time before any
person reached the scene, and when they
did the fire was under such Roadway that
not hingcould be done to save the building.
Some stacks of hay around it was saved,
and there being no other buildings near ii
no other damage was done. The barn
contained about Ave tons of hay, some ba
con and farm implements.
No solution can be given to the mystery
of the origin of the fire unless it was cca.
stoned by lightning. In the evening pre-
vious there had been heavy wind and
rain storm with little thunder, but no
one was conscious of hearing any thunder
after 10 o'clock at night. No incend;arism
is suspected, and the origin of the fire re-
mains a mystery. The value Of the barn
and it's contents would not exceed $500
on which there was no insurance.

pas- Some Dodgeville or Mineral Point
Democrat has written letter to Peck in
which he tries to make the said Peck be-
lleve that we have nearly all gone over to
the Democratic party, and adds: "what
is true of Dodgeville and Iowa county, is
true ia all other places" ,tt
Every citizen of this place knows better
than to make such statements. No man
in his senses is going to believe the con-
tents of that letter. If the writer's con-
Guiding remarks be true, we feel perfectly
safe and have no cause whatever for fear.
We are going to roll up mighty ma
jority for the party that has brought the
nation through her most grievous troubles.
Here in Dodgeville what Greeley gains
from one party Grant will gain from the
other. That is about the true size of it.

~ The M. E. S. S. of this village held
their annual picnic on Thursday of last
week. About 2 o'clock the procession
started from the church and marched
through our principal streets, each class
of scholars being led by their teachers, and
it was truly a beautiful sight. Though
we did not count them we should think
there was over five hundred nicely dressed
children. After the marching they re-
paired to the lot in the rear of the church
and under large tent prepared for the occa-
sion, they partook Of the good things their
mothers and sisters had provided for them.
The afternoon was taken up with sing
ing and speech making. Rev.. James
Sims, from Mazomanie, and Rev. William
Sturges, from Hazel green, made short
and spicy addresses. Everybody seemed
to be DESTROYS to make it happy time fol
the children.

Fey We have repeatedly urged through
these columns the necessity of the people
of Dodgeville taking some steps in order
to defend their property against the fire
monster. We have heard some talk of it,
but up to the present time nothing has
been done. 1t occurs to Us, and we think
it will to most of our citizens. that fires
are oc curing oftener at the present time
than formerly, ard there is greater ne
cessity for an organization being formed
now than ever before, and that necessity
will increase as our buildings get older
and our country becomes more thickly set.
tied. Our citizens have been seriously
alarmed several times during the past year
by the awful cry of fire, and though they
rush to.:he scene Of disaster yet nothing
can be done, because we have not the
wherewith to do. .s.eef .ss.
We urge the people Of our village once
more to do something in this matter before
it is too late. A company should be
formed and some measures taken that we
might at least make a fair pretence Of saw
ing our property from destruction sew
eral large cisterns should be built; hooks
ladders, hose, buckets, etc, should be pro.
vided, and building or buildings should
be erected for the purpose Of taking care
of the property, &c.
If the property holders would take the
matter in hand, organize fire company,
elect officers, and start the enterprise in a
proper manner, they would confer great
blessing on the village of Dodgeville. We
have had sufficient fires lately to know
that our property is not exempt from the
ravages of fire, and the sooner this thing
is attended to the better and safer it will
be-. ..

A ScoUNDsEL AND SwrNDLER.-A reward
of 800 is offered BY q. Pitts, Esq, OF
Warren, ILL.,, for the arrest and conviction
of George Burdine, who swindled him In
the following bold manner:
Mr.. Pitts was about starting west-had
made every preparation, had six horses
two wagons, and other equipments. Geo.
Burdine represented that he had been
west, and persuaded NJ. P. that it would
be greatly to his advantage to sell his en-
tire outfit and procure another which he
represented would be more suitable. He
afterwards agreed to buy Mr.. P's horses
and wagons, paying him the money down.
The bargain was closed and they went to
Darlington on Saturday to get the money
from the bank. Burdine delayed Until
the bank was closed, but to save another
trip he offered Mr.. P. government bond
for 81 900 with the understanding that he,
Mr.. P, was to give Burdine's wife $3.50
when he got the bond changed on Monday
The bond vas handed over and Burdine
started for Shullsburg on Saturday even-
ing. On Monday, Mr.. P, on presenting
the bond at the bank was informed that it
was not government bond at all, but .
worthless railroad bond. He immediately
took an officer and started in search of
but ct last accounts had not
found him. E.
Geo. Burdine is described as a man
about 5 feet 9 or 10 inches high weighs
about $50 or 100 pounds; has very full
ACE, rather red likes whisky wears chin
and dark blue coat.
