and to scribble for the edifcation of the
readers Of the paper we have come to
love as a dear friend. has always been
a pleasure which we now forgo with
much of regret. not to say sorrow, as
we step over the Threshold of the
sanctum and pass from our little world
of journalism to mingle with the jost-
ling, ever busy throng with whom the
'pen'' and the "pencil" are only i'm
plements for figuring up profits and
losses, in the great ledger Of life. But
the world is tull of good fellows, with
':riLht smart" sprinkling of bastards,
and we shall find the good, wholesoul-
ed ones, albeit we encounter the tares
in the not unwelcome search. The
causes whlch have impelled us to the
step we have taken, are of little mo-
ment; suffice it to say that the press
ing business Of our position as a gov
eminent official has had almost wholly
to do with it. To do justice to the posi-
ton we occupy was to neglect and de

Fined $50.O0.-H. W. Lord,
Justice Of the peace, is having lively
times in court business lately-several
cases Of importance having been
brought before him. One case in
particular. \ fellow by the name of
Thomas Sweeney, a rough character
formerly of Stevens Point, got into a
bcastly state Of intoxication, became
very abusive in his language to some
Of our more respectable citizens and
making threats to shoot, AM in one
case pointed a cocIed revolver in the
face Of Henry Belanger for which
last offence he was arrested. The court
saw fit to impose a fine Of 5000 and
costs, and in default of payment he
was sent to jail. We are glad to see
Shat the proper officers of this city are
determined to deal promptly and
severely with this class of roughs, it
VII have a tendency to hold in check
their former wild and disgracefal
course. Mr. Lord says he intends TO
follow out this course OF dealing with
such cases aud will increase the penal
ties for every new offence if the first
desc does not satisfy the cqlprits.

about twelve from Plover, few from

country. The boys formed in process

and then to Writer'S hall where the
anniversary exercises were had. The
prellninaries over with Gen. john 4
Kellogg was introduced and delivered

many new thoughts and the General
illustrated his points so we'll and at
times SO eloquently as caused frequent

satisfaction. The band rendered some
excellent music. At Music Hall il

Grants foreign tour, first and last,

This is the most notable OF the
flaming scandals to which the at
tention Of the people of the United
States is just now invited. The
second is the spectacle OF the mem
bers of Hsyes's cabinet scattered
broadcast over the whole United
States and log-rolling for Garfield.
These fellows are all really nothing
but special attorneys, from Carl
Schurz to Dick Thompson. They
know that the American people
are now making up the record OF
the fraud Of 1876. They are part of
that fraud. One and all. they are
intriguing for merciful verdict at

not leave them naked and defence.

of scorn to point at forever. The
whole thing is scandalous aud I'M
precedented. Its very enormity
will cause it to react, like boom
erang. The American people have
not lost all sense Of the proprieties.
They have been insulted, but their
resentment will be certain and
scathipg. They are in the mood of
retiring the whole kit OF office
holders and insolent bureaucrats,
and of permitting them to learn, in
the private station, something of
the self.respect and good conduct
which ought to characterize all
American officials.

CHICO, Cal, July 29.h.-This
forenoon about II o'clock, Second

caused by the appearance of
young prostitute, named Mary
Fink, dressed only in her chemise.

to see the girl. He was shown to
her room where she was in bed.
Without word he drew
knife and plunged it into
her side and o second
time into her abdomen. The girl
struggled to get away, and receiv
ed three more cuts on the hand aud
arm, but finally escaped to the

low her, but was arrested. When

assigned by him for the deed was
hat the girl had robbed him.

IckIinE OF HaDC0ck's FOrahc0m.
Ing Letter.
NEW YORK, July 30th.-The E1-
press says it was rumored to-day
that General Hancock's letter of
acceptance was to be issued this
evening, but this afternoon it was
definitely learned that his letter
will not be furnished to-day. 1t Is
believed that the issuance of the
letter only awaits the arrival of
copies Of Mr.. English's. so that
both can be issued simultaneously.
The Express reports this afternoon
that General Hancock's letter has
been ready and in print for several
days. 1t is understood to be short.
From persons believed to have a
general knowledge of its substance
it is gathered that it's chief points
are:
First, that the Presidents duties
are chiefly executive, and that the
President must obey the Constitu.
ton as the supreme law of the
land. and obey and enforce the
laws of Congress, whose duty it Is
to repeal laws when 1t is found that
they have bscome obnoxious.
Second, that the political results
of the war must be accepted and
upheld in good faith and the Con.
stitutional amendments and the
laws enacted in pursuance thereof,
must be fully respected.
Third, that the broadest Demo-
cratic ground will be taken on the
Chinese question, with the declara-
tion that, while Columbia 10 the
asylum and home of the oppressed
of all lands, she will not tolerate
the enslavement of labor in any
form, whether by foreign or local
contract.
Fourth, that the duty of the
President to make recommends
tions to Congress is to be construed
in no narrow, but in a thoroughly
national sense; and, as local inter.
ests may conflict, the duty Of re-
conciling matters over which the
sections may dispute, belongs to
Congress, the law-making power.
