State Journal of this city, yester-

state journal OF this city, yester-
day, and will explain itself:
Upon the request Of several
gentlemen who were delegates
to the Convention which framed
the Constitution of the State Of
Wisconsin, that a reunion of the
members, officers, and attaches OF
that body is hereby appointed to
be held at the Capitol at Madison
on Friday, the 1st day Of Febru-
airy, 1873, at which the Surviving
participants in the work of pre-
pairing that instruments are re-
questcd to attend. An invitation is
cordially extended to the members
and officers Of the first Constitu-
tional Convention to honor the
occasion by their presence
The call is signed BY NJ. l..
Martin, President, and i. +. KEEL
logg, Secretary of the Convention
Of 1916.
Already large numbers Of old
citizens Of the State have ex-
pressed a determination to be
present to take part in the cere-
monies Of the reunion.
On February 9th, 9th, 7th and
Sth, the State A gricultural and
Horticultural societies are TO hold
u joint convention. Interesting
papers are to be read and an in
strnctiye time is anticipated.
There are no prospects Of a very
long session OF the Legislature
this year.
The best Of feeling prevails
here in regard to the coalition
Of the Democrats and Green
hackers in the Assembly. 1'he
curses of those who were on hand
to take the positions, and who
expected the Republicans 70 ret
control of the Assembly, were
not loud but deep when they
learned that their hopes had been
doomed to disappointment. It is
believed that the Democrats and
Grecnbackcrs will act in concert
upon most Of the important
to be brought before
the Legislature this winter.
There appears to be at least
one good feature about the Leg
islature and that is that in its
present standing there is but
little danger Of any partizan leg
islation being enacted.

About Selling Out.


Our Republican friends feel very
sore over the fact that the Democrats
and Greenbackers have gained control
OF the Assembly. A great cry Is made
about the Democrats selling ont to u
handful of GrecnbackerS, for the pur-
pose OF obtaining control Of thc spoilS.
Two years ago, when the Itcpubli-
cans had things all their own way, they
passed the Infamous apportionment act
by which they thought they had Sc
cured the legislature to themselves
for all time. TO have their nice laid
plans "gang aglee" nj this early date,
is not ut I'LL calculated to make
them good natured, and they can be
pardoned for drawing on their vocab-
ulary OF slang for the purpose Of
throwing il unfortunately nj the
heads Of all who contributed to their
defeat. The infamy Of the apportion-
mont net can be better understood
when it is remembered that the Senate
and Assembly districts Of Tho state
were 50 "rc.formed' that it would
require u democratic majority OF
twenty-five thousand Of the popular
vote TO give that party u majority in
the legislature. II is no wonder that
Republicans feel chagrined over the
result Of the organization Of the AS
SembIy How the representatives. Of
two parties could unite upon single
question wherein the sacrifice Of the
principles OF neither Was called for
for the purpose Of keeping u third
party from securing partisan lcglsa-
ton is incomprchcpsible to them.
The election Of Mr. Barrows, Green
hacker, to the speakcrsllip, was not Il
sell out on the part or the Democrats.
Mr.. Barrows was i lifelong advocate
Of democratic principles, and an up
right representative Of the party. He
was not elected on account Of his |
financial views, for they have us
little to do with the position rSpcak-
81, ~ honesty has to do with the aver
age republican politician; but n coali- |
ton between the Democrats and |
Greenbaekers was necessary To pre-
vent the Assembly from being hand |
cd over bodily to the Republicans.
Where the snrfendering up of prln-
clplo is concerned, we are az little in
favor Of compromises as anyone.
Truth cannot DO joined to error, neith-
al can false financial policy be made
To larmoni2e with true ono. But
we are equally opposed to the setting
up Of an issue where one should not |
exist. Where two parties are diampt-
really opposed 70 each other both in
their principles and practices, it is i'm
possible for them to unite III carrying
out \ single measure; but whcro Il
third party exists for the avowed |
Of accomplishing reform in Il
particular direction, ii can readily
be seen that there IS no dshunor 10
the party which seeks its aid in The |
carrying out of greater and more
necessary reforms We have no
patience With tllo false cry which
seeks To discourage compromises +"
which have for their object tie over
throw Of such abuses rs have been
hcapcd upon us from time to tirno hy /
q radical legislature.

THE PUBLIC DEBT.

The debt statement for September will show
n reduction of So, 1885, ,534 in the amount of
debt less cash in the Treasury. 1t would have
shown a much larger reduction, had not about
So, ,OOO, 900 been paid during the month on
account of pensions, while expenditures by
the executive departments for other purposes
were unusually large. These heavy drafts, it
appears have further exhausted the currency
balance, notwithstanding the free use Of sill
yer coin wherever it was convenient in place
of legal tenders. AS the legal-tender balance
September 1 was 1922 III 81, and it has
been reduced to 81 1872, 594 September 80,
the currency payments must have exceeded all
the receipts from domestic taxes and all the
disbursements of silver dollars. Payments of
the latter kind must have been comparatively
small notwithstanding the great desire o. the
Treasury officials to get the new dollar into
circulation, it evidently is found so lncOn-
venient in use that creditors of the Govern
ment receive 1t with reluctance, and 1t Is
found difficult to use it in the larger part OF
nayments The condition of the Treasury, not
less than the persistency of the premium on
cold gives increased reason to regret that'
instead of awkward and mainly unsuccessful
aefnrts In oet silver coin into circulation, the
Treasury did not begin as early as Septemb Der
IN relieve the drain upon its currency bal
once and to make effective preparations for
resumption by free payments of gold for
ordinary expenses. The various contradictory
orders respecting silver dollars have dimin-
isbed public confidence in Mr.. Sherman's
clearness of vision and OF Judgment have
| slightly increased, on the whole, the hopes of
FL. ,f, ion, hs,xr
rather hindered than helped preparations for
that greattask and, meanwhile, have resulted
| in precisely the same depletion of the gold
| balance in the Treasury. through receipts OF
silver instead of gold for duties, as If the
same amount of gold had been paid out d.
rectly in place of legal-tenders to pensioners,
salar1ed officers and other creditors of the
Government. IL the Treasury will now take
occasion to recuperate its unusually reduced
currency balance, by means of free payments
of gold in October, the Secretary will surely
find befoTe the month ends that S5,000,O0O
! of gold will go further to strengthen public
confidence in the success of resumption than
SlOOOO,O0O of silver, which quickly flows
back into the Treasury in place of gold.
The most favorable feature of the custom
! ary monthly reports is the continued increase
of the trade balance in favor of this country.
Returns for the month of August, just re-
ceived, show that the exports of merchandise
in that month were extraordinarily large
The amount. in specie value, was $59,0S9,-
4s5, an increase of $16,370,O0O over the
merchandise exports of August last year and
at the same time imports amounted to only
S3G, S93,26j in August, 1878, decrease OF
2.255, 900 in comparison with last year
