Many of the subscribers to the Tni bone are in arrears from one to near five years. We do dis like the business ol dunning, but necessity compels us to ask for our dues We have done our best to ike tli Tribune interesting to its readers, and think we have a right to receive in return a remuneration for our labors. About the firs? ol October, we shall be compelled to raise between three and lbr bundled dollars, to meet our liabilities. and would feel truly grateful To those in arrears, either for papers. aJv ertising.

or job-work, for the small amounts due Irom them, thail we have them TAX! On Monday evening next, a School Meeting will be held at the Court Room, when a vote will be taken to RAISE A TAX the inhabitants of District 1, for the purpose of building a School House. 1: is hoped that every Tax payer in the District will he present. Public Land attention of the reader is called to President's this paper, for Public I and Sales at several Land offices in this State. A large amount of valuable Lands are offered tn the tracts advertised. JvDictAL returns are yet incomplete.

Judge Whiten is undoubtedly elected Chief Justice. For Associates, the vote very cloce Irtv ecn C.awford 'trorg and SinT We ask the attention of our readers to the article on our first page from the JVri'S. setting forth seme of the abuses now heaped upon (in Scott, followed bv the views of distinguished men relative to his character, previous to his having become a i undulate for the Presidency Wc would ask our opponents what Gen Scott 1 as done to produce this change in their ews of his character as 1 a man. a general, and a patriot? Then, i language was too weak to express their gratitude and admiration for his fidelitv to our whole country. Now, no vocabulary is sufficiently extensive to contain words of verulence strong enough to express their disapprobat un of his whole past history.

What has caused this change which is daily proclaimed through every channel of slander and defamation our broad land, from Judge Douglass down to the lowest political demagogue of the day The answer is plain. It is the same that brought down such gross slanders upon the heads of Gen, Harrison and Jen. because his political friends have thought proper to testify their confidence and gratitude by placing him in nomination for the Presidency For this one act, his political adversaries have renounced every favorable opinion of his out every record of his every obligation for Ins services, and are now pouring upon his head vials of wrath and unmitigated persecution Justice, truth, gratitude, honor, are all forgotton and every means calculated to lower him in the estimation of his countrymen brought to bear against him. I'ut we rejoice that the seven principles of Locofocoisui (the five loaves and two fishes) ar not sufficient to dethrone justice, or deprive truth of its empire. There is a calm, sober, thinking mind throughout the land sitting in judgement upon Gen Scott and his slanderers, and on the second of November next, a verdict will be re ndered, sustaining the opinions expressed iu by gone years and reversing those of his present villitiers.

Consist! Y- tie following is a fair specimen of fiec-tnde arguments. To say tiiat Mr. Carpenter originated it, would, perhaps, be giving him more credit than even his political friends about here would allow. He proved to the satisfaction, however, of his audience the three following propositions 1. The Whigs are in favor of a high protective tariff, like that of 1812.

2. The revenue under a high tariff is much than under a low tariff. 3. The reason why the wlugs favor a high tariff is, that they may have the control of a larger amount of revenue to expend in (Jalphin claims, Now if this is not conclusive, we do not know what is. The Calphins, by the way, we would inform Mr.

have deserted their "good the whigs, and are consistently supporting Pierce and King. isco.nsi.n Daily Journal is a welcome visitor to our table. David Atwood, former editor of the Wisconsin Express, and more recently connected with the Palladium, is the proprietor and editor of the Journal, and we most heartily wish him success. That a good whig paper is needed at Madison, is apparent to all. and wo have no hesitation in saying that the Journal will be such.

The Daily is of a fair size, well executed materials being entirely new enters with spirit into the cause of the noble Scott for the Presidency. Let the Whigs of the State, and more especially of Dane County, sustain the Journal, and they need not be aslumed of their Organ at the Capital. We are glad to notice the return of our townsman Wm. Lawton, who has recently been on a visit to England. Mr.

L. crossed the Atlantic in a sail vessel, and made the trip from Liverpool to Mineral Point in 28 days, including two days that he remained in New York. lie showed us some beautiful specimens of Australian copper, which almost gave us the Australian fever. Lieut. May, who fought under Scott, and was twice wounded in Mexico? is doing good service for his old commander in New York, Pennsylvania, and the New England States.

The support of one such man is worth more than that of a dozen of Polk pets, who were appointed to office for political purposes. i'kper at Hazel Green. A man named Charles Kilgore inflicted a mortal wound upon William Spottswood. a few days since, while in a drunken frolic He also wounded another man who interfered. Killgore is in jail at Lancaster.

Eog saw a beautiful specimen of this fruit at Mr. Wm. Corbel's a few days since. One of them, which we measured, was four inches long and about three inches through. Mr- Corbet has several of a smaller size, which he raided the past season.

The Kilmistes. Family who performed here on Monday and Tuesday evenings to admiring houses, will give another entertainment this (Thursday) evening, at the Court House. It is worth the price of admission to see Petite aide perform. first number of the Sheboygan Falls Free press, by J. A.

ng may it remain so. under obligations to lion. Henry Dodge for several valuable Public Documents He will please accept our thanks. Protection and Free The public were treated to a rich entertainment a few evenings since, at which Mr. Carpenter, of the Madison Argus, one of the reties of the Democratic County Convention, confused his hearers and contradicted himself in attempting to argue the Taritf Mr.

arpenter gave the people to understand that he was a free-trade man himself; but that the great party of which he was a mem, ber. yielding to the prejudice of the people and the progress of age, had not yet as a party, settled down upon that principle. He admitted that me question was a sectional one entirely that hile the mass cf the people in some portions of our country were universally in favor of protection to their industry, those of other sections were as generally opposed to any restrictions of trade. Now this is true so far as the democratic party is concerned, we know; but every intelligent man knows that the hig party throughout the country, North, East, South and West, adopts the American principle of rewarding and encouraging the arts and manufactures on our own soil. This, with them is no principle to be bounded by rivers or State lines, for they hold the policy to benefit mutually the miner, the mechanic, the farmer and the manufacturer.

higs of Wisconsin, Georgia, and of Pennsylvania, nnie in their earnest endeav. ors to secure the triumph of this policy while the following call for a democratic meeting to be held at Reading shows the double game hich is now attempted for a second time, and by which the miners of Pennsylvania were defrauded in 1844 1818. Mere it is literally of the Union and the disciples of Jefferson and Jacksonadvocates of protection to Agriculture, Commerce, and Manufactures all who go for the common brotherhood of ths North and the ono come ratify the nomination of the patriots, Pierce and Now this word protection used as a rallying cry in Pennsylvania, is, cut west, according to Mr. Carpenter, a vile creation of the It the poor to support the Hut how, Mr. C.

did not explain to our satisfaction. If protection is such a talisman in Pennsylvania, if it is so important to the interests of the people of that State, as both rich and poor believe, why will not the same policy conduce to the interests of Wisconsin and of all the great sisterhood of states We have mines of lead, iron and zinc Illinois has the same, with coal so have lowa and Missouri, and in fact no state is destitute in this respect. Now, we can not see why the same policy, acknowledged to operate so much to the ad vantage of the w'orkinoclasses in the older States, may not operate as well here and elsew here. Protection, it is true stimulates manufactures and the building of factories and workshops, and the con. struction of machinery gives employment and good wages to a multitude of men who had previously been compelled to farm labor at -S8 or 810 per month.

Protection also stimu- lates mining operations creating a demand for iron, lead and zinc, hich demand can only be supplied by the labor cf citizens of this country. Protection, also, by withdrawing laborers from the overstocked farms in most portions of the land, to work at the various branches of manufactures, and mining, creates the demand for all the production of the farmer, which alone can insure him good prices and a sure market. 'Those who refer the producer to Europe for a market for their grain and other produce do not seem to have made very close calculations. If these I politicians had grain to sell they would not! like to look forward to a famine as the only chance of improving the price and demand of the article. They would, perhaps, look at the actual figures, showing how much dependence may be placed upon the stale of European markets.

The figures below show the slate of the case for three years, the first year the year of the famine in and Scotland. The value of the bread- I stuffs exported was In 1819 £68,701,931 1850 526,041,373 1851 hat the prospect is for the coming season, every one can figure for himself. So much for the foreign market to which Mr. Carpenter and the free-traders generally commend us. We sell more to the little State of Massachusetts alone, than we export of breadstutfs to Europe.

As long ago as 1842, this State consumed products of other States to the amount of? 42,000,000. Now-, by encouraging and supporting a policy which would make consumers of our own citizens, how long would it be ere the mere pittance of which last year found its way to a European market, would find stomachs for its consumption by the very doors of the producer And we hold, that this steady home market would more than compensate for the trifling variation in price, which the free traders would fain have us believe a necessary consequence of protection. This seems to have been the opinion of Andrew Jackson as expressed in his celebrated Coleman letter, from which the following is an extract: from agriculture in the United States six hundred thousand men, women and children, and you will at once give a market Jor more than all Europe now furnishes us Alas for the party which claims Andrew Jackson lor one of its founders and patronssadly has it degenerated in these days.

by Wm. E. Robinson, a countryman of mine, in which he lays before the public a series of tacts, which he says have transpired year after year, from 177 down to 1851, showing that the father of Franklin Pierce, stood in a conspicuous attitude among the people of New Hampshire, and in almost every instance voted against Religious Liberty in whose footsteps, Mr. Robinson says, his son. Frank Pierce, has followed, ever since he became known as a New Hampshire politician.

I also see in the Mineral Democrat of Sept 15, over the signatuie of Franklin Pierce, an indirect denial ot the charges made against him by Robinson. He (Pierce) says in a letter to John E. Warren, of Cooperstow N. that he was an advoacte for the call of a Convention which assembled in November, ISSU, and the most prominent object in his mind was to strike out the unjust and odious provisions contained in the Constitution, commonly called the religious and property qualification tests, from our fundamental law. Now, Gentlemen.

I am inclined to he opinion that there something rotten in Denmark, or Frank Pierce or some of his numerous friends, who can at any time have access to he records, would lay belore the public a certified copy of the votes cast at the various elections, upon the subject of prohibiting Catholics from holding olfice in that State, on account of their Religious opinions. Assertion is very good, accompanied with good evidence, but without it is worth nothing at all. Mr. Tierce friends assert that he has always stood at the head of the Democratic party in New Hampshire, and that he and his party have always opposed the odious clause above alluded If such is the fact, why not, in the name of common sense, and the honor of the great Democratic party lay the tacts and figures before the people in such a way as to show that Win. E.

Robinson and others have lied, and that G. M. Dallas and 1001 others ot the Democratic party, stand acquitted of iking ialse to the American people That there is a gieat anxiety among my countrymen to know the truth on this subject, cannot be denied. Thej know Gen. character is a part of the history of their adopted home.

Quite different with them in relation to Gen. Tierce; for they never knew, or a majority of them, that there was such a man until after his nomination for the Presidency They were then informed by Geo. M. Dallas that Mr. Tierce was a great Statesman, and was not guilty of the charges that have slice that time been made by Robinson and others.

This certainly looks to me something like preparing for war in time of peace, or that Ex-Vice President Dallas was trying to erect a battery in advance behind which to shield Mr Tierce from charges that he knew might justly be brought against him. from Geo. M. Dallas, even down to Mr. Carpenter, the great orator of the Democratic Mass Meeting held at Mineral Point on the 18th, has been asserted, both publicly and privately, tha tVV m.E.

Robinson and others, were that Franklin Pierce was not guilty of the charge, in consequence of which 1 have searched every Democratic paper and document within my grasp, but searched in vain, for a refutation of Mr. Robinsons statements. Now, Gentlemen of the Tribune, this is the first time that I have ever called upon a Whig Editor to make a demand of a Democratic Editor; but this subject requires investigation, a id no honest man can fear the result of an impartial trialtherefore il Franklin Tierce has pursued the upright course which his political friends say he has, why not let facts that can be relied upon, be laid belore the people, in place of be.re assertion? Now for the demand I wish you to ask of the Democrat, and I ask it not as a boon, but a right the sovereign people have to enquire into the pub lie character of public men. Be pleased, therefore, to demand of the Editor of the Mineral Point Democrat, a correct transcript of the votes cast upon the Religious Test question, as fully as Mr. Robinson Las done; and I am authorized to pledge the sac red honor of thirty of my countrymen for the true and faithful payment of alt that the copy of the records shall cost, in Gold and Silver coin.

Provided it proves Mr. Robinson's statements incorrect. ith due respect, in behalf of myself and countrymen, 1 am, gentlemen. Yours, ERIN GOBRAUGH. lowa County, Sept.

Ternpory altars were erected in the streets, before which the affrighted populace continually prostrated themselves. Several shocks were also felt at Saltadoro, though with less damage that at Santiago, which city is almost entirely The severest shock occurred about half past three in the morning, and with the intense darkness which prevailed, added to the horrors of the scene.

(p. 446-7.) I appreciate as much as any man living the many political rights and privi- i leges which I. in common with the people of the Lnited States, am now enjoying, and it is my honest impression, that WE DO BUT SQUANDER THOSE PRIVILEGES in conferring them upon persons who choose to come and claim them He knew that a great portion of those who come among us fiorn foreign countries consist frequently of the WORST PART OF THE POPULATION OF THOSE COINTRIES.
