Here's a Warning.

Girard, in Philadelphia Ledger.
 A century and third has passed since the Hessians made their last foray in New Jersey. Such was the terror inspired by those armed liber- tines and robbers that in some parts of the State it is still a common thing to frighten children with the threat.
 "The Hessians will catch you"
 A Philadelphia judge sent an editor to jail for six months for calling a candidate for office a Benedict Ar hold. Would a court convict for call ing a man 8 Hcssian or Tory or Cop perhead?
 No, thank you, have no intention whatever of putting the question to a practical test. I merely suggest the thing to recall what a fearful and last ing odium clnGs to those who, by wan ton creulty in war, or by treachery and treason, bring hardships not spe- cifed in the human code book

NOTHING TO MAGNIFIcENcR
How the First Legislature Met at
Madison-The Change

The converting, last week, of the
Wisconsin legislature in the paIatial
new state capitol serves to recall the
circumstances under which the first leg
islative session at Madison was held
and seeker for the c0rious delves in
to history and produces the following:
The capitol, a structure not much
larger than the present assembly cham
Der, was still far from completed. 1t
was poorly and. il was freely charged,
corruptly constructed. The floor of
representative hall was laid with green
oak boards, full of ice, which under the
heat of the single stove in the chamber
shrunk until one could thrust his hand
between them. In the raw February
days the room became so cold that the
ink froze in the wells, and had to be
thawed out before work could proceed.
The basement which was entirely open,
had been chosen as a winters home by
an enterprising drove of hogs.
Scarcely less satisfactory than the
capitol were living conditions in Madi
son. Food was high in price and poor
in quality, and at that the town could
care for but fifty guests. The garnet
of the American hotel was marked into
lodging places by cracks in the floor,
while the Madison house, the only other
hotel, crowded six visitors into room
