The abominable Fugitive Slave Bill. We, whose names are appended, feeling ashamed of the action of the Federal Government in passing the above bill, and justly indignant at snch an outrage upon tho rights of Man, unite in calling a public meeting to bo held at the Methodist Church, this evening, Friday October 10, at 7 For tho purpose of giving emphatic expression of our sentiments in relation to its character and design. (Signed,) Samuel Y. Brande, J. R.

Phelps, John Gridley, C. Briggs, Asa Lewis, Wallace Mygatt, and 70 other citizens. 7all Daniel Stevens, Esq. of Pleasant Prairie, exhibited in our office, several ears of com, which looked to us pretty large. One was full 13 inches in length another 12, and 8 in.

in circumference at the butt. Four others were about 12 in. in length and large in proportion, and these he says, were not much more than a fair average of the yield of the field from which he took them. The com was from Bto 12 rowed, of the common yellow kind, and was raised from seed brought by Mr. Stevens from Canada, where he procured it from two different fields.

Both kinds of seed were ol the 8 rowed species, and produced jointly this 8, 10, and 12 rowed kind. Dojys among the There has recently been, in this neighborhood, a terrible destruction of sheep by dogs. On the farm of Jlr. A. near town, in one night, thirteen of thechoicestkind of sheep, valued at 600 dollars, were destroyed.

A tew nights after, on the same farm, a number more were destroyed, and altogether witliin a small circle and within a short time as many as 90 sheep have been killed. Two dogs were detected in the offence and promptly slain. arc told that wool-growers are continually suffering from this cause, and that in this neighborhood some have sold off then sheep because they find it impossible to keep them. 1 his ought to be remedied for it is of importance to body that Fanners be protected and encouraged in diversifying their labors. If dogs are at all necessary, there are certainly about a thousand more about this city, than can by any possibility be of use.

We suggest whether it would not be good policy for the next Legislature to impose a tax on these animals. It would have the effect, we think, to rid the country of the surplus dog population. Andrew E. Elmore, Of Mukwonego, Waukesha was nominated by the democratic convention at Rochester, on the 34th ballot, as the candidate for Congresa. His competitors were Boyd, James, Holliday, Randall.

His main competitor was Gen. Boyd, who got 10 votes to 12 for Elmore. We confess to some surprise at this result. Personally, we like Mr. Elmore.

He has stood with us on ultra ground since we have known him, but we never knew him as a member of the democratic party, and therefore are surprised at his choice by a democratic convention. Mr. Elmore, if we are not misinformed, never belonged to any party but the whig party, has for several years occupied a perfectly independent position, and at the last Presidential election, voted for Gerrit Smith. All this is by no means objectionable to us, but it is certainly good ground for surprise at his nomination. Want of time compels us to reserve further comment.

The OPERATION OF THS FUGITIVE BILL. Fiom every section of the country we hear of the workings of this law. The first case under it occurred in N. Y. City.

A colored man by the name of Hamlet was taken up, sworn to by i a son and another relative of the claimant, and I was on his way to bondage in charge of the Uni- I ted Marshal, before his family, who resided at Williamsburg, knew of his absence. pense to the people, SIOO. We are glad to add that his price, SBOO, was promptly raised, as soon as the facts became generally known, and he was restored to freedom. The slaves who were confined at Harrisburg, for an alleged riot, were taken under the fugitive act and remanded to slavery. We learn that an attempt was made at Detroit to arrest a claimed fugitive.

The populace resisted and the Marshal called a couple of companies of soldiers, who escorted the fugitive to the Police Office and then to jail where he was remanded for ten days, to procure, as he says he can, from Cincinnati, proof of his being a free man. We hear rumors of a case at Chicago, but nothing definite has reached us. All over the country we hear of great excitement among all classes of people. The negroes are rushing from all quarters to Canada. We may look cut for some cases near home.

This is an extraordinary state of affairs, and will bear more comment when we have more time. Fuuuy Enough. It makes us laugh just to think of it. To see these venerable old hunkers, who hate free soilers as they do the devil, supporting a man for Congress in this district, who voted for Gerrit Smith for President, at the last election, because Van Buren was not free soiler enough to suit him. It suits us exactly.

We like Gerrit Smith first rate, and wo are not without hope that this same democracy will put him forward as their choice for President next term. Just think of that veteran democrat across the waynailing up his flag: For Congressman, GERRIT SMITH friend, A. E. Elmore. It is funny.

Ha! ha! ha! He! he! he! Ho! ho! ho! We are a progressive democracy and we are delighted to know it. Give us your hand, brothers; got a leetle ahead of us but we try and keep along. Assembly district convention to send a delegate to the Rochester Congressional Convention, was held at tavern on Monday last. Josiah Bond was appointed such delegate. The Madison was adopted, and a resolution in addition, cordially endorsing the course of the Hon.

Chas. Durkee, our representative in Congress. This action, as far as it goes is highly gratifying. The Madison platform embodies true free soil doctrine, as does the course of our representative, true free soil practice. A press of advertisements, curtails our space so much that we arc compelled to omit many things we designed to say in this number.

We shall either enlarge our paper or ensmall our advertisements, as we, as well probably as our readers, want more room. steamer Kate Fleming burst both her boilers, at bar, on the Ohio river, between Louisville and Cairo. Seven persons were killed and a number wounded. Meetings have been called all over the state of Massachusetts in opposition to the fugitive slave law. A large meeting of the citizens of Milwaukee unanimously recommended Mr.

Starr for re-appointment as Post Master of that city, from which place he has just been ejected by the action of the Senate. Durkee arrived at home on Monday last, in good health and spirits. Gen. Dodge passed up to Milwaukee on the boat, a few days since. He designs to visit our city soon, going from here to his home in lowa county.

None of representatives in either house, has more honestly and faithfully reflected the popular sentiment than Gov. Dodge, and we much doubt whether our state can do better than return him to the post he has thus tar honored. Governor Doty has returned to his constituents. It is not yet known whether he will be a candidate for re-election. The following is the Census of the different towns in Kenosha county, as furnished to us by the Deputy Marshal, VV.

Mygatt, Esq. Kenosha, 3508 Wheatland, 1190 Salem, 1125 Bristol, 1125 Pleasant Prairie, 959 Paris, 956 Brighton, 875 Pike, 677 Southport, 363 Whole nnmbcr, 10778 Poo much credit can hardly be awarded to Mr. Mygatt for the attention, labor and care which he has bestowed in order to have the census returns in all particulars correct. If all the Marshals have done their duty as faithfully as we have reason to believe he has, the statistics in this matter will be reliable. 17 We intended to have briefly reviewed in last Democrat, but we have not time to say all we wished.

We will say, though, that after the Cass men have again and again adopted every principle advocated by Free Soilers, it is rather singular that they should denounce these Free Soilers as unprincipled, deluded, The Democrat claims that there is no cause for disaffection among democrats, states that there is perfect union, and yet denounces the principles on which alone union is claimed to have been effected, and denounces the men who first advocated those principles. This shows a disorganizing spirit which deserves rebuke. 1 he Fugitive will be seen by a notice in another column, a meeting of our citizens is requested for the purpose of obtaining an expression of opinion relative to this late law of Congress. In our opinion, the occasion calls for prompt and energetic action, for never was there a more inhuman and unjust law enacted by any power. It is a burning shame and a foul disgrace, that this republic in this enlightened day should enact laws, which the most heathenish and barbarous nation of earth would reject with disgust and disdain.

If we are not entirely without self respect, we shall rise as one man, and promptly expunge this foul blot from our national escutcheon. I his law has one good feature. It makes no distinction of color; the words, black, white, slave, no where occur in it. It is only necessary that a man-hunter shall trump up a couple of affidavits, on which he can procure a warrant, and with this wajrant go where he pleases and seize whom he pleases, and the whole force of the United States is at his service, and every GOOD citizen is commanded under pains and penalties, to bear a hand to bear the person claimed to any remote part of the union. No matter if you are free and always have been.

Trial by Jury is abrogated, the habeas corpus is suspended, your own oath is to be heard nor taken under any circumstances, but on these affidavits which any scoundrel may trump up you can be hurried to South Carolina, and there far from friends, from all who can aid, assist, or defend you, in the hands of enemies, be put through a mock trial and consigned forever to the rice swamps dank and And who do you suppose pays for this beautiful illustration of humanity and republicanism. One would naturally suppose that the man stealer who had secured your body, might afford to do it. By no means, but the national treasury, filled up by the toil of freemen of the north, is taxed for this purpose. We have no patience to continue tho subject. Thank God, however, the vile thing is having tho effect it should have.

From tho east, the west, the north, and the south, is rising a sound of indignation, which will soon swell into a hurricane of consuming wrath. Cunning scoundrels, who thought you had settled forever the slavery agitation you have overreached yourselves. Settled! You have lulled the breeze and raised the whirlwind. The country will soon rock as with an earthquake to its very extremes, and tho rotten institutions of the land will tumb.o about tho ears of those who seek to sustain them. Let our city speak.

Let every human being whose heart and head are in the right place be on hand at tho proposed meeting, and assist to wipe this blot from their own brow and the brow of our common country. A Letter, from the Hon. C. Durkee to the Editor of the Free Democrat, informs us that The Swamp Land bill which was passed and made law at the recent session of Congress, brings into the possession of this State 1,259,000 acres of that description of land. Whether these lands are to become an addition to our magnificent fund for Public Schools, or to be employed for other purpose of general utility, they are an important acquisition to our young State; and it devolves upon the people to see that it be not entrusted so the care of political gamblers.

A young A friend tells us, that in his travels through the county, in the town of Brighton, he found a mother onfy 13 years of age. This beats most of the census stories we have read. ETBeriah Brown, of the Madison Democrat, thinks our neighbor over the way has but needs a mood deal of spurring to make him show it. VV do not know how much spurring our neighbor has had, but the impression is that he has been showing his ever since he has been connected with the press. Durkee is making preparations to visit his constituents throughout the district.

His appointments will be announced in a day or two. We wish Mr. Elmore could be persuaded to go with him, that the people migh; have a fair opportunity to contrast their merits, but wo apprehend he is too shrewd to give his opponent any such advantage. Congress passed three very good measures a bill admitting California, a bill abolishing flogging in the navy, and a joint resolution to adjourn. The Rochester convention which nominated Elmore, passed a resolution denouncing the fugitive slave bill, and instructing the nominee if elected, to go for its repeal.

We suppose our neighbor over the way will call this another free soil hnmbug, started for disunion purposes. The sama convention also passed a resolution recommending Benton for the Presidency. This ia another Free Soil heresy. CT The Free Soilers in Racine county have nominated a straight ticket throughout. They passed the following resolutions Whereas, Charles Durkee has, by his manly, straight-forward course while in Congress, given evidence of being an honest, able, and fearless exponent of Free men Therefore, Resolved, That men, and members of the Free Democratic party of the Unionpledge him our united and unwavering support in the coming canvass for Representative to Congress from the first Congressional District of the State of Wisconsin, believing, and having reason to believe, that he will fairly represent the opinions of the Free men, not only of this Congressional District, but of the whole Union.

Resolved, That we, as a party, and as true Democrats, are now, and ever will be, in favor of a union with any and all classes of men who will agree to, and will labor for, the principles of Democracy, as expounded by Thomas Jefferson and other great founders of our government. Resolv That we, as free men, believe the Creator of the world designed that every man bo the inheritor of a portion of the earth and that it is as much the inalienable right of man so to inherit the to inhale the air or enjoy the light of the snn. Resolved, That as a party, we believe it to be the duty of every man to labor for the independence of himself and his race; and that we believe the surest way to achieve the independence of man, is to secure to all a right to the soil, and by enacting the necessary Land Limitation laws. Resolved, That as meu, we look with horror upon the action of Congress on the fugitive Slave bill, the Texas question, and other of the proslavery measures, of the traitors to man and to our National Union; and that we, as men, pledge ourselves to show our contempt for such iniquitous laws on the first opportunity, and on all proper occasions to aid man in attempting to escape from oppression, and to recover his natural rights. Resolved, That as a party, we are bound by no factions, cliques, or combinations; and that as, a party, we look upon the rights of the individual as paramount to all others, and tiiat therefore we believe fully in the doctrine, that men are created Free and ET Workmen are engaged in laying down the ties on each end of the railroad to Waukesha.

The Directors are pushing forward the work as fast as possible. A EETTEB. The following letter found its way accidentally into the hands of the editor of the Wisconsin Democrat, who published it. It furnishes a very accurate idea of the character of the individual who wrote it, as also of my dear to whom it isaddressed. Was ever such a precious piece of scoundrelism before written up.

These two worthies, it will be recollected, have been guarding the State Treasury for a year or two, to prevent the funds from being stolen. Secretary Barstow and the balance must ieel flattered at the prospect of being bought up by Co. Wonder if they most ready to leave the state. The bids alluded to, it will be understood were the bids for printing for the current year: Smith. that I may not see you before leaving, I prepare the enclosed bid as aspecimen of whit I think had best be done in the bluff line, in case no satisfactory arrangement can be made.

The bids come oil' on the 6th of Saturday, I believe. I have figured I through this bid, and money can be made on it. For the laws and journals I would go down to 1 18c again, and put the difference into the folding. 1 Thus, it a volume will make 500,000 ems, the difference of 2 or 5 cts. per 1000 ems, to hands, is but a trifle.

Now, as 1 here are to be 4000 laws, of say 100 sheets, if a bid can be made at from 20 to 50 cents per 100 it will fetch out. We can him all tho folding we wanton laws at 5 cents per 100. By putting in these items where they will tell on actual calculations you can make it figure suppose you bid off at 12 cents composition and press work. Wyman, Brown and the Express all want to unite on tho incidental; in that case the differeucc made by so much division must be added to the bid and the Stale must pay it. I have got Ream to agree to inform us all about the bids privately up to the hour ofclosing, and you will do well to see him.

If there is no other incidental bid in, as is likely, $2,00 per 1000 all the way through and the rest in proportion, will answer. I shall write you from all the places 1 stop at, for the Argus, so that you can keep track of my whereabouts. I have told the others what my plan is; they must combine with us or take work at a loss if they get it. You are authorized to sign my name to any papers necessary, the same as if I was here. We must get a good bid on the incidental, even if we have to buy up Barstow and the balance.

Shall be absent from 4to 8 weeks. will be well to keep a little shady with Holt and if you have to, make an independent bid; but I think it best to use name, or yours. Please look this over this close, and let the demagogues know the Argus is on hand every time. A. The Fugitive Slave Bill.

Everywhere throughout the northern states we see it announced the colored population are terror-struck by the passage of Slave Capturing bill. The bill is indefinitely retroactive in its character. The child brought on by its fugitive slave mother, may now, a man, be eaptured and returned to slavery. The slave girl, escaped a score of years since and married here, may be swept off with all her brood, to the slave-market. These things may not often happen it is enough to know that they will sometimes happen.

The case of Hamlet, is that of a man who had resided some years here, who had married a wife and had children here, and who was carried off, at mid-day, from them without hearing and without trial. In that case, it is evident that the ez-parte statements of the two interested witnesses against the captive were such as could have been rebutted by evidence or the conclusions derived from the estimony, have been met by legal considerations. They swore that he was once tho slave of their relative. But that he was not permitted to go that he was not taken to a free State by his master and so emancipated under the operation of State law (as in this State), that he was not manumitted by his real owner, these men could not swear, and these things the captive should have had an opportunity to prove. Above all, he should have been permitted to prove his identity, against the oaths of his prove their perjury and he could.

As the law extends indefinitely baek it will soon become as common a speculation to buy up claims against fugitives, as it is to buy old debts, revolutionary claims and rights, or the unlocatcd bounty lands of soldiers. Professional sharks will address themselves to some one who has lost a slave, any time these ten years back, buy out his claim, and armed with a certificate, will come North and prowl about fortheir prey. They fix their eye upon their man, make oath, capture and iron the victim and carry him Suppose they get wrong does any suppose they would care any more than if they had entered the wrong quarter-section under a bounty claim, if they could only keep possession by hard-swearing? Does any one suppose that one of these men, once owner of a right to some negro in a free State, would ever quit content without getting possession of some negro in the free States. What wouid he care whether the man was a fugitive or a born freeman? It is the general conviction in the minds of all such men that negroes in the free States are runaways, and that even if not they ought to be in slavery. From Boston to Pitsburgh there is a strange murmur of affright since the passage of this law feeling of indignation too, and a talk of resistance.

But fear seems to predominate; and citizens, peaceful and uncharged with crime, are fleeing from our own and sister States, to the Colonies of a Monarchy. Why? Because Millard Fillmore, a citizen of New York, (a quondam abolitionist when office was to be got by it) has made his State a hunting ground and offered the three hundred thousand colored people of the North as a quarry to the sportsmen of the South. Boston, Oct. 2. Excitemknt in Massachusetts.

excitement prevails in various parts of this State, in consequence of the passage of the Fugitive Slave bill, and it is rumored that slave catchers I are present at Worchester and Springfield, both of places are said to contain large numbers of runaway slaves. At Springfield, last night, meetings of blacksand whites were held. Inflammatory speeches were made against the law, and a determination expressed that not a single fugitive should be taken out of Springfield, law or no law. The fugitives were earnestly recommended to arm themselves. Hard and bloody work is expected there, if efforts are made to arrest the negroes.

Milwaukee Sentinel. New Postmaster. We perceive in the New York Tribune, that Simeon King has been appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate, as Post Master of this City. This is the first occasion on which this office has been made a Presidential appointment, and the President it appears, has chosen to send in a new name in preference to continuing the present incumbent, Mr. Mansfield.

Whilst the new appointment will undoubtedly be popular, it is but just to say that the present officer, in the discharge of his duties, has been faithful and obliging. Sweet We were shown by our friend, Thomas Howland, a sweet potato of his own raising, weighing about two pounds. He had several acres of ground in sweet potatoes and would have raised a handsome crop, had net some scalawags surreptitiously and feloniously resurrected them prematurely and cairied them off. He has shown what may be done in that line, and we trust our agricultural and horticultural friends generally, will profit by it.

They are unerring indications that the vital functions of nature have been interrupted in their healthful action, and that serious evils must inevitably follow, unless the system be again set right by the timely use of proper remedies.
