The SECESSION MOVEMENT.
The sovereign state of South Caro-
lima, by the united action of her peo-
pie has severed the bonds which, for
eighty-four years, has united her with
her sister States of the Confederacy.
The representatives of the people, in
convention assembled, have declared
that all further connection between
them and the citizens of the other
States of the Union, ought to be and is
dissolved. To make her secession a
reality, and not scare crow-as poll
ticians have endeavored to impress up
on the people-she has already taken
possession of two government armed
forts, and her Palmetto flag floats over
afew weeks since the Stars and Stripes
proudly waved in apparent security.
II is sad to dwell upon this subject.
Where il Wiz whether South Car
o5lna viii be joined 10y her erneighboring
states, ana our glorious Union broken
into iragments-God only knows.
EMENT. We would be
ungrateful did we not acknowledge our
warm thanks for the many acts of kind
ness extended to the PILOT office dur
the past two weeks. To enumerate
them all would be superhuous, but we
cannot forbear to mention the substan-
tial favors conferred upon US by Messrs
Guy Miles Of Misnicot, and John b.
BprkS Of ROckland. May they always
have an abundance of this worlds
goods.
Some wretch, fearing neither the
law nor the military power of Gen,
Smith, has been purloining wood from

and the scoundrel who would steal it
from a printer should be horned out of
respectable society.

will quickly ensue. He does not sit up

estimable young lady.

discovery that this is not leap year. a

she found she could not divide 1886 in
to four equal parts.

She was one Of the first settlers of Man
itowoc and for some years conducted a
little grocery store on the south side.
1t doesn't make any difference whe-
ther Milwaukee has hydrophobia or
not, let the worthless dogs which chew
bones and ozark at the moon be killed
anyway, and let the hydrophoba scare
be encouraged until this is done.
