TWENTY free and enlightened cit
liens of Wisconsin have evolved
from their inner CONSCIOUSNESS plan
by which they hope to Danish pow
erty forever from the face of this
great and glorious country. They
have sent a petition to Congress ask
ing that the Treasurer Of the United
States he instructed to pay to each
and every man, woman. and ch'd
residing in the United Stated the
sum of $40 per week, payable every
Saturday night at the most conven-
lent postoifice. 70 meet this outlay
they wish the Secretary to be author
lied to issue bonds; provided, how
ever, that the issue shall under no
circumstances exceed $4,000, 100000
annually Verify, this is a good
scheme, yet Senator Howe, who pre-
scented the petition, was not entirely
certain that it was. a wise measure.

lT seems that the danger of a rup-
ture in the Cabinet over the whisky
ring prosecutions is not yet over.
The pressure of the friends Of the
victims upon the President and
against Bristow is said to be as
great as ever. Stated in few words
the fact is, President Grant cannot
afford to fly in the face of the public
sentiment of the country in this
matter, even if he feels like doing
so and, furthermore, he should I'M
deystand that the politicians swarm
ing at Washington, with axes to
grind, are not the men to whose adj
vice he should give heed in such a
matter rs this. The popular feeling
of the country at large is with Blis-
tow in this whisky business, and
with the sentiment, "Lot no guilty
man escape" We shall not believe,
as yet, that President Grant will &c
back on himself.

ENGLAND has great occasion to
be greattul for its Privy Council, or
court Of last resort. The arrogance
and meanness sometimes found in
the Established Church received q
merited rebuke from that tribunal
not long ago. \ higoted vicar re-
fused to let Methodist Clergyman
call himself REV" on his own daugh-
ters tombstone. The lower courts
sustained the vicar, but the Priyy
Council rebulVed him. The right q
appeal, even If it has some disadvan-
tases. is, on tie whole, eainently
beneficial.

on the frontier in the course OF a
few weeks. The Associated Press
agent at Omaha says he has official
authority for the statement that the
Sioux, Cheyennes, and Arrapahoes
have been and are yet making ex-
tensive preparations for an outbreak.
They have been purchasing large
quantities of ammunition and arms
wherever they could get them, going
as far south as the Indian Territory
for this purpose. Most of the war
riors have left the agencies, and a
descent on the frontier settlements
may be looked for at any time. Adj
vices from Washington are to the
effect that the War Department is
making arrangements to proceed
against Sitting Bull, who is one of
the troublesome chiefs.

il the more Objectionable feature of
the Potter law are repealed, and the
statute for the regulation of the rail

and less burdensome to the railway

THE Democratic candidate for
Governor of New Hamshire-Daniel
Marcy-is q pretty specimen. He
was in Congress in 1864, when he
made a violent speech against Pres
ident Lincoln and the conduct Of the
war, saying among other things,
that "the wicked, disloyal Abolition
party who sustain the President in
his infractions on the Constitution
are Joint heirs with him to the in
heritance Of eternal infamy."

The Tribune OF the same date con-

The Tribune OF the same date con-
tains the following announcement:
The Chicago & Northwestern and
the Chicago 81 st. Paul Railways
have just issued the following tariff
from this city to Milwaukee: First
class, Is cents per 100 pounds;
second-class, II cents; third-class,
10; fourth-class, I cents; grain IN
car loads, 5 cents; -four, 10 cents
per barrel. These rates will go into
effect Monday.
The distance from Milwaukee to
Chicago is IS miles. The following
are the rates permitted to be charged
by the Milwaukee d st. Paul rail-
road under the Potter law from Nc
Farland first station east Of Madi-
sony to Milwaukee, distance 80 miles:
First-class, 10 cents per 100 lbs;
sccond-class, 4 | cents; third-class, "a
cents /; fourth class, 20 cents; grain
in car loads, If cents /; -four, 30 bar
rels or more, 26 cents per barrel.
Query: If Potter law rates on
the Wisconsin lines of roads, owned
by those corporations, are crushing
them into bankruptcy" what are
their voluntary rates on their inter
State lines doing!
A great deal of sympathy is ex-
pressed by "Steel Rail- and others,
for the poor, deluded Hollanders
and others who were induced, before
the days of the Potter law, to pur-
chase at 65 to 10 cents on the dollar
the first mortgage bonds OF these
corporations, and it may be inter-
esting for them to know how the
sufferers by the Potter law are get
ting along, and how soon they are
likely to become objects Of charity,
and at the same time utter words of
comfort and consolation to those
whose estate pride is SO sensitive
in regard to the credit of our State
abroad. The New York finance re-
port Of February 2, reports the fol-
lowing bids for the bonds the NJ. IL

The Milwaukee & st. Paul rail
road also own lines of roads in Min
nesota, Iowa and Illinois, and the
bonds Of their company secured by
liens on their road in Wisconsin, are
in better request, and bring higher
prices, than on their roads in the
other States. In fact but few secu-
rites are offered in the New York
market that command as high a price
as the bounds of both those corpor-
ations. They bring better prices
and are in more active demand than
they were before the enactment Of
the Potter law. JUSTICE.
