TILDEN AND STATE SOVEREIGNTY

There can be no question that Tilden
entertains views Identical with those
held by President Buchanan on the sub
ject of coereing a sovereign state to obey
the laws of the Union. He held that it
was unconstitutional to prevent by force
state from seeding from the Union.
We have indubitable proof that Tlden
held to a doctrine so dangerous to the
national peace and tranquility before the
war, and even since the war.
Judge Underwood, WHO'S we'll known
in the North as well as at the South,
gives the following precise information
as to the sentiments of Gov. Tilden near
the close of the war:
I have known Tilden for twenty years;
I known he holds the opinion that the
war was unconstitutional; heard him
declare, in conversation with myself
near the close of the war, THAT EVERY
MAN OF THE UNITED STATES AR
MY THAT MARCHED ACROSS
SOUTHERN SOIL WAS A TRESPAS-
SER, AND LIABLE TO A SUIT FOR
DAMAGES.
This is the doctrine held by Ben Hill
of Georgia; Tucker, of Virginia; Eaton,
of Connecticut, and Wade Hampton, of
South Carolina. Now the people should
ask themselves, do they desire to elect
a president of the United States with
such sentiments2 Are the Wisconsin
soldiers, who SO calamity volunteered
to defend the national capital against
the attacks of the Confederate armies,
and while marching upon the Sacred
soil of Virginia, TO be regarded as tres
passers who can be sued for damages i?
This woI1ld be putting a new phase up
on the success of the Dememooraefc par
ty at the coming election, and we do not
think Tilden will get many votes among
those who fully appreciate the enormous
wickedness of such a doctrine. We
thoroughly believe that Tilden's unoues-
toned strength in the southern states is
In great measure due to the conceded
fact that he held doctrines against the
constitutional right to coerce the south
into submission very similar to those adj
vocated by John @. Calhoun. Even the
soft-money confederates on this account
ioyfully accept Tilden, as they deem
state sovereignty far more important
than the currency question.
JUST MIssED.-The Oshkosh North
western says that a singular circumstance
and narrow escape, happened near
| Waukitn last Friday, which is worthy of
mention. Mr.. G. A. Bulls was engaged
| IN stoning a well ON the farm of Nj.
Dade. He had laid the stone up three
or four feet when he was attacked by a
| severe nauseating sensation In the stor,-
ach, with an inclination to vomit He
called for the bucket to be lowered and
he was hauled to the surface. No sooner
| had he stepped out of the bucket and
commenced vomiting than the wall cav
ed IN with a loud thug and filled nearly
to the top. The well was thirty-fiye
feet deep, and had Bulls remained a
| moment longer in it he would have been
buried alive. In a minute his sickness
vanished, and the fact of SO slight a cir
cumstance saving his life is somewhat
remarkable.

Hydrophobia,

"In 1850 the Nicholas railroad, from
ST. Petersburg to Moseow-about 900
miles-was finished, and a number OF
Russian Generals put their heads
together to get a profitable contract out
of the governments. Tne acheme they
hit on was to keep the rolling stock OF
the road In repair for ten years. Fhe
minister of public works, who was in
the ring, made a contract with them by
which it was agreed to pay them eight
cents Tor every mile a passenger car
went over the road. four cents q mile
for each freight Car. and SO on. The
document, having been properly drawn,
was carried by the minister to the EN-

A Beautiful Sentiment,

The following beautiful sentiment was
recently utteredby Judge John l.. L.
Sneed, of a Western Court:
"The idea THAI the judicial officer is
supposed TO be vested with ermine,
though fabulous and mythical, is yet
more eloquent in its signiiicance. We
are told tAat the little creature called
ermine is so sensitive to its own cleanli-
ness that 1t becomes paralyzed and
powerless at the slightest Touch OF detile-
ment upon its snow-white lur. When
the hunters are pursuing it, they spread
with mire the pass leading to its haunts,
to which they then draw it, knowing
that it will submit tY be captured rather
than deiile Itself. And a like sensibiIi
ty should belong to him who comes tt
exercise the august functions oljudge.'
