VENGEANCE UPON A MULE.

Old Silas was very revengeful man:
Now, Silas owned 4 mule, and one day
the mule raised his hind legs and smo,e
Silas, whereupon the old man sat upon
the barn floor and wept. Suddenly he
smiled, and seizing grain sack he filled
il with sand and rocks, and tied leather
apron around it. Then he hung il down
from the beam right behind the mule.
A shuddcr passed over the animal, bu:
he nerved himself and let fy. He sent
the bag to the roof, but the recoil struck
him with surprise, not only once but
two or three times. The mule was as
tonished, shockedl He wasn't used to
being kicked back. Old Silas laughed
until tears ran down his cheeks. The
mule kicked again and the bag kicked
back. They kept up the contest all day,
and towards evening the mule showed
signs Of weakening, but old Silas was
not satisfied yet. He went to bed, and
during the night he heard the mule bray
ing for mercy, but his heart was hard
cned. When he went tn the stable in
the morning the sand bag was as fresh
as ever, but the mule had laid down in de-
spair and was dead-died Of a broken
heart.

THE WORTH OF A FRIEND.
nv .. $. g.


How of when through life's gloomy hours,
Troubles unnumbered do appear,
Then with what longing eyes We look,
To see if some kind friend 10 near,
Our troubled hearts 20 calm and cheer,
Aud make all things look bright.
When pains distract our wasting frames,
And nature seemeth 10 look drear,
While murky clouds shut out from view.
The face Of friends by nature dear,
Who In the distance do appear,
As angels sent from Heaven.
when dwelling In some foreign land,
Without . gentle voice TO cheer,
There you must live In solitude,
Because no loving friend comes near,
And sheds the sympathizing tear,
Az he was wont 20 do
Man knaweth not the priceless worth,
Ofhim who doth with constant care,
Watch Ger him through the silent night,
Al, yes. Il 10 my friend that's near,
For now his loving voice hear,
Speaking In soothing tones.
when on the bed Of death he lies,
And death alas. Is drawing near,
No enc 10 smooth his weary couch,
o! then he'll wish friend was near,
Ills moaning tones he then would hear.
And bring to him relief.
The worth Of friends cannot bc told,
Till sickness doth your vi;ais tear,
And you arc left alone 10 die.
The worth Of friends you'll then see clear.
but, alas! no friend L. coming here.
Priendless you must die.
But there 10 n Friend in Heaven,
Who Il lowering ever near,
While distress aud sorrow o'crhang,
lie, In sweetest accents, soft and clear.
Whispers I'm your friend most dear.
can comfort thee when faint.
You shai. ne'cr want human friend,
I do sweet consolation bear,
And when thy days on earth are spent.
To your bedside will appear,
And convey your spirit whcre
You will never need friend.

WHAT IS IT A SIGN OFF

A querist, who signs himself esprit.
ualist, writes that he is somewhat super
sti,ious, and that the other day he upset
the dinncr-table, with all the dishes on.
He wants to know what it is 4 sign Of.
We shall answer him to the best Of our
ability.
II his wife comes in before he has the
dishes picked up, it's a sign that he's
going to travel around for a week or more
with his head looking like a mop Of a
slaughter-house.
II the table was upset before he had
his dinner, it's sign that he won't have
the nightmare.
II the baby was on the floor it's sign
that he knows how many laps there are
around his bedroom, and how much
soothing syrup young one will hold
without stopping over.
II he isn't an editor, and there was
anything but crackers and cheese on the
spread, it's sign that he'll know how
much 4 new carpet will cost.
1t depends altogether upon what she
hit him with, whether he had better take
lessons in the deaf and dumb language,
or wait and see how long it will take his
jaw to get as good rs new.
And last, but by no means least, we
say il may be a sign that he was drunk.

fS-1'he reason why certain foolish
men take more pleasure in low and SEN
sual pursuits than in the higher pursuits
which afford a scrcner IL less exciting

they are foolish, just as il is said that the

FROM THE STATE CAPITAL.
MADISON, March s, 1851,

| MADISON, March s, 1851.
To THE EDITORS OF THE PILOT:
| There being no mail communication, what
ever, with Manitowoc, save by way of Chi
cago, and very irregular at that, am sure
that your readers will make liberal allowance
for the death Of news in this necessary brief
letter. The only question agitating the leg
| islature thus far this week is that of the SEN
| atorial succession and other equally as inn
portant matters must be held in allegiance
| till it shall have been determined who is to
rule the Republican ''narce," Boss Sawyer
or Boss Eldred. The first named declared
quite publicly several days before the death
of Senator Carpenter that Angus Cameron
must succeed the lamented N1ilwaukeean but
Boss Eldred, smarting under the Cameron
| recommendation of confirmation Of Collector
Hall of Milwaukee, ''hooked up" as the
phrase is, with Dave Vance and started
boom for Dixon, and at midnight it looked
as if Dixon might be the winner of the sena-
,orial perSimmons.
The senatorial caucps was called to order
at 2 so yesterday afternoon by Senator Wood
man, chairman of the legislative caucus COM
mittee, and on motion Senator Scott was
called on to preside. The name of Angus
Cameron, E. w. Reyes. L. s. Dixon, G. c.
Hazelton and C. G. Williams were presented
to the caucus in glowing teru5, and from
that time till nearly midnight, excepting an
intermission for supper, the ninety-two Re-
publcans assembled, balloted, but all in
vain, the final ballot number twenty-eight,)
resulting thus: Cameron, 80; keyes, 20;
Dixon, IS; Hazelton, 7; Williams, 2; Bing-
ham, /. However the true strength of the
Cameron forces was but thirty-five and of
keyes about ten less. After the announce
ment of the vote upon the last ballot, an adj
journment till this afternoon was effected.
One thing, at least, is apparent, and that is
that the different factions of anti-C Cameron
men greatly outnumber the F'maehinists,''
and the best OF feeling prevails among them.
They say that if the nomination should be
made in caucus they will unite upon some
candidate acceptable to all parties. Senator
Price hopes that the Dixon men vii unite
with the friends of Mr.. Reyes in favor OF
some good man and it is possible that this
may be brought about. 1t looks to me, how
ever, as If no nomination would Re made in
caucus, but that they will let the whole mat
ter 60 before the joint convention and give
tbs Democrats an opportunity to help elect
70 the United States Senate Who
will creditably represent Ca A''Ssfss sse's
monwealth. PAYEY.

THE following is the cabinet selected
by President Garfield: Secretary OF
State, James Blaine of Maine; Secretary
of the Treasury, William Window of
Minnesota; Secretary OF War, Robert
Lincoln of Illinois; Secretary of the In
terror, S. J. Kirkwood of Iowa; Secre-
tary of the Navy, William II. Hunt of
Louisiana; Postmaster General, Thomas
l.. James of New York; AttorneyGen-
eral, Wayne McVeagh of Pennsylvania.
The men were evidently selected with a
view to give representation to the differ
ent factions of the republican party,
rather than because of any qualifications
of the men for tie positions they occu-
by. Blaine was q candidate for presi-
dent; so was Window. Their claims
secured them place in the administra-
ion of their successful rival. Lincoln
was Grant man and the Grant cohorts
are given the war department.. McVeagh
is a p;ciitician of the Ohio stripe and he
might be said to represent Garfield
Hunt is sop thrown to the sonthefn
republicans, and James is perhaps <. ven
to Conkling and New York. 1t is an ex-
cellent piece of patchwork and very
weak cabinet.

COUNTY JUDGE.

Before another edition of the Pilot
reaches the majority of our readers, the
nominee of the democratic convention
viii be practically chosen. That he should
be man with a good knowledge of law,
honest and competent, no person of in
telligence will deny. 1t would be dis
grace to the county, a parody on judicial
elections to choose a man who has not
even the qualifications necessary to make
good justice of the peace. A good deal
depends upon the Office, and the credit
of the county and of the local democratic
party is at stake. No man, barely able
to read and write should be chosen to q
position in which judgment, legal kpowl-
edge and scholarship are requisite. The
teacher of district school must in some
degree be qualified to discharge the du-
ties devolving upon him. Should not
the same rule be applicable to candidate
for county judge? Let not the county
be brought into disrepute by disgrace
full nomination.

PREsIDNT HAYES has vetoed the three
per cent. refunding bill. His action in
this matter is in the interests of bond
holders and national banks. The reduc-
ton in the rate of interest naturally pro-
voked the hostility of bond holders to
the new funding arrangement. They
have opposed every bill which created
q bond of a lower rate of interest than
those bore in which the debt was funded.
The zoos were the highest. When a
bond bearing six per cent. interest was
issued note of alarm was sounded that
| funding could not be successful on &C
| count of the reduction. The reduction
to Al and per cent, brought repeti-
| ton of the cry, but the bills were signed
| by the executive and bond-holders and
national banks readily accommodated
themselves to the new order of things
Possibly bond bearing 3 per cent.
could not be foated. But if A. per cents.
are at premium it would seem that 3
per cents. should sell at par. In any
event the president should allow the law
to be tested and not interpose his veto
at the solicitation Of the wealthy people
of the country. An extra session will be
rendered necessary by this action of the
president. On whom will the blame fall?
