Madison, Aucust 1st. 1965. BAGS! CAliS BAGS! Manufactured by the Chicago Bag M.inufi nclorr, ilia. OliC ns Messrs. Edvtops: Excuse me for intruding upon your columns the following synopsis of my remarks before the Council, on the subject of the Agent and Loan Commissioners.

It is a favor that I should not have wished, not the parties implicated in those trans- actions, thought proper to spread themselves great length, end if we understand aright, no small expense before the public, in vindication of their acts and in abuse of those who fain would see the city finances administered honestly and economically. Respectfully, D. J. POWERS. Remarks of Aiders Powers, Before the Connell ta the Loan Swindle, rending a Kf solution to piy the Money over It the City Treasurer.

Mr. Mayor and Alderman This matter of investigation and arraignment of my personal friends for their indiscretions, or misdeeds, to say the least, a disagreeable task to me. is one that I have not sought; but being fairly pushed into it, as I have been, it is oue from which I will not shrink. In reply to the gentlemen who have pre-ceeded me, I will be as brief as possible, and more personal than is absolutely necessary. Alderman Van Slyke proposes to lay before the Council a fair and undeniable state ment of the truth, the whole truth and notli- ingbut the truth.

Such evidence as he will substantiate, by evidence, either of the rec- ord or attested by two or more witnesses. He next proceeds to assume that the report the loan Comaiis-ioners, "is in every word and figure true, and not easily susceptible misconstruction." That their acts were authority previously conferred. That they thereafter reported their doings to the Coun when that report was received, accepted and adopted. Further, that all the acts re ported and thus adopted, were approved, rat ified and confirmed by such adaption and area binding upon the Council as thou that created the commission! Mr. Mayor, I deny that the gentleman, Mr.

Van Sly has laid before ns a state ment of the trmh. I deny that he has told the whole truth, and don't believe him when he assei ts that he has. told nothing but the truth. For in the very next paragraph, where he refers to the report of the Loan Commissioners; even in the same breath, he proceeds to state what is not true, and to withhold what is true and to state everything but the truth, iu relation to that document. And that he doe so willfully and fraudulently, to screen himself, and others, from justly deserted censure, I have not a shadow of doubt.

When lie says that every word in that report is true, he knows that it is false. lie knows, that when they use the word dis count, as applied to the $777, allowed At- wood, on said bonds that the word used in the bill of sale, by said Atwood was commissions showing clearly, although denied by him, that they charged, and took pay, for selling said bonds which fact was deemed necessary to conceal, to justi- the high price charged by Van Slyke, for that 6atne work of selling the bonds, which seems after all he did not do himself. The gentleman also knows, that a large amount of interest had accrued on said 000 of bond', at the time they were sold, and before the money was paid on them by At- I wood no account of which is giren, either by him or the other commissioners, in said report or elsewhere. What became of the interest is an important question. The gentleman also knows, that further down where they speak of disposing of 000 of the bonds at par, that it is not true.

He knows that three of those bonds of each, were sold to him, Van Slykt under the cover of the name of Geo. A. Mason, for certain Hospital lots in the second ward. That he received said $3000 in bonds for those lots, which he did not a-k but a little over $2000 for in cash, of private individuals; and further, that he voted in the Council to buy these, his own lots, of himself in fact, at thisprice, though pretendedly in the name of Mason, to whom they were not sold, until the next day. See proceedings of the Couwil July 16; also see date of record of deeds from Van Slyke to Mason, July 17, and Mason to the city the same day This, in the language of that wonderful eommi-sioner's report, is a specimen of dis posing of bonds at par and oat of such disposals as these, they make np their state ment, that the bonds are sold at 80 per cent.

And this is the statement, that the City Fi nancier claims "is every word true, and no thing but the truth; all of which, he can prove by the records or two or more witnesses." The above swindling transaction can undoubtedly be proved, by much better evidence, both by record and witnesses. And those same Hospital lots, which the city has no use for, could not now be sold for over $1600 to $1800 still, this is disposing of bonds at par." But to pass on Said Commissioner's report, immediately alter reciting the sale of the 93 bonds to Atwood reads as ''The by arrangement, to be paid at such times as the Treasurer of the city shall require, to meet orders drawn on him for appropriations." Now, Mr. Mayor, I charge that this part of the report, is wholly untrue, for it is an easily established fact, irm the very bill of sale of Atwood that the money was to be paid as follows $23,623 in hand on the Cth ol August, in thirty, and the remaining $25,000 in ninety days, without any interest whatever dthongh the bonds were drawing from the 1st day of July, and maturing an interest to the amount of about $1800 for the city to mv during the same time. Such the real and true arrangement, made with At wood for the payment of the monies, But the foregoing ambiguous paragraph in the report, was drawn to cover another ar rangement altogether, and to bund the eyes tf a portion of this Council, and the citizens Madison. It was to cover a certain se cret and swindling arrangement, concocted hy the City Financier to give him the control said money, or most of until next year, without any adequate compensation therefor to the city.

This paragraph in the report we claim is entirely ambiguous, and undoubt- I intended to be so, for the purpose before stated. Still the gentleman tells us, that the riwrt is not ambiguous, nor easily susccpti-U of misconstruction, ilr. Mayor, I claim of by said the by by and anj to to the See in appeal to the council record for a proof of foregoing facts. The statement ot settlement with said an- slyke, coupled wilh an agreement to retain money, I have before stated, teas never tuhnitiedia any intclligiblewoy to this Covn ror was never seen nor heard of by me, my colleague, except in a verbal way, at first Investigating Committee meeting. finally made its first visible appearance on paper, here this evening.

We pronounce it a snpplement, to help out a bad And reason why we did not refer to it in our report, was the best in the world; simply because we did not know anything about it, even though we called on the Clerk and Loau Commissioners, at the Committee Meeting--, all the papers, still this one was never shown us until now. The gentleman has contrived to become city financier, the chairman of the build ing committee, and for some time at least, not still, the book keeper and clerk of the city Treasurer. In which triplicate capaci he undoubtedly would have done brown, in the way of starting new banks, city capital and diverse other nice thing- for himself and friends; but for the -tunate persecution of a certain minority, who' are that tiny cannot appreciate the utility of the gentk- inans management. But, Mr. Mayor, and gentlemen, I am trespassing further upon your time, than I inten ded, and must forbear; hut did time permit.

would ask no easier task than to track the gentleman into many additional crooked places and to show the folly, to use no worse phrase, of many of his acts, and even from the very first organization of this City Council. And in return I challenge him, oi any other of my colleagues here to track me into a specnlation to the amount of a single cent, that I have made, or tried to make, in any similar manner. But, Mr. Mayor, I do not wisJi nor will 1 further follow, the bad exumple of my opponents by indulging in personalities. 1 onlv ask councilmen to adopt the Le-fora us, and thereby place the city money in the treasury where it bel ngs.

This gentlemen, is our botinden duty, and if we do it, the city and our constituents will hold us blameless. But if we do not do this simple act of justice, cnlhd upon as we are and petitioned by so large a class of our bet citizens, the 'responsibility and consequences will be upou our own head For one, I shall vote tor the resolutions and others can do as they please. But we mut all remember that, there is a tribunal where quibbles, nor fine talk, nor long prosy written speeches will not avail us it is the tribunal of an awakened public opinion, and an awakened conscience. Mr. Mayor: In what I have said, I disclaim nll'personal ill-will, or malice.

I don't entertain a particle of either, towards any gentleman present, or absent all I wish, is simply to sec justice done in the matter nothing more. Fit O.n Fts and Opinions from Various Source. F.om the New York Tribune. Wasiusgto.v, Dec. 21.

His friends are desirous he should receive the mission to Prussia or Russia, and a formal movement to that effect has been proposed without his intervention, and said to be signed by various members Neither ot the mcumbei ts missions has signified any desire to be relieved. Gov.

rooinati was quite satisfied with Berlin at last accounts, and Mr. Seymour is not a resigning man. It is now understood that the special ob ject of Gov. Wise's visit to Wheatland was to protest earnestly ngiin-t Senator appointment in the Cabinet. No particular rea-on is assigned for this hostility, but it may be remembered that Mr.

Toucey was the Chairman of the Ilou-e Committeo which reported on tlm Cilley duel, and held different opinions then from now. Under his remonstrance and collateral intlnences brought to bear on the same point, it is apposed that a compromise may be made on Mr. Clifford, as the New England man.

The ca-e was not quite within the provisions of the general law, and the question was, whether it was one of tho-e special cases where Congres should grant relief. The petitioners for relief belonged to Massachusetts, and, seemingly tor this reson, the South made a desperate fight upon it attempting to stave olfaction by filibustering; but it was im nso, for the 'bill was reported to the Hou-e and passed.

Madison, Aug. 1st, 1S55. tt ot, In The In ft ire ihe I D. if. if explanation.

Still the gentleman the hardihood to claim that this blind paragraph refers to and sanctions the private arrangement entered into between himself and tht balance of the Comviissioners. without a thadoi0 of authority oa their party mi that its adoption on the part of the Council, privat-e arrangement was also adopted although it never tea shown to, or read to Council, nor teen nor heard of by me or any other of the Council, so far as I can learn, except a few who were privy to the ar rangement. Still the gentleman claims that this blind adoption of that portion of the report, tha the Council approved, ratified confirmed said private arrannement made it nniung upon tie Council- Thi- say the least, is a palpable absurdity. This private arrangement with Van Slyke keep and use the money of the city foi several months, if it was anything, was a con tract; and as a contract, must inevitably have been void for want of authority on part the loan Commissoners to make it. the resolution under which they were appointed, in proceedings of May 16, and ordinance No.

20. The shallow pretence that the Council sanctioned it by adopting the Commission ers' report, when it was never read to them, nor understood at all; nor even een by the Council until now, is to absurd to call for reputation. Mr. Mayor, I have no doubt but what it is a supplement, brought in at thin late day, to patch np this miserable business, and give it some litile show propriety So much Mr. Mayor, for this remarkable Commissioners' report, that the city Finan cier was going to prove every word and fig ure of true.

In dismissing it, I declare that my opinion, it is a issue of errors and deception, intended (beyound doubt) in con nection with the aforesaid private arrange ment, with the city Financise, to mislead and defraud the city. Mr. Mayor, 1 give these opinions, and make these deductions open and above board, and am willing to be re sponsible for them now and at all times, in the Council or out of it; and those who feel agrieved thereby, are welcome to make the most of them. The appeal of the gentleman to his asso- ciates for confirmation of his assertions and statements is cool to say the least, and pe haps fully satisfactory to him, perhaps hi windy assertions, and this kind of proof will be equally convincing and satisfactory to others; time will show, Mr. Mayor A few words further, in refer ence to the gentleman's (VanslykeV) remarks.

He makes a gi-e tt tie il of ado about onr as- serting in the minority report, that he cliatg- ed the city $2500, and after a world of words. duly italicised, he proves that it was only $2400 and expenses. We admit the correc tion, Mr. Mayor, and still think the truth bad enough, when taken iu connection with th additional amount deducted by Alwood as commissions; and more especiall when the fact is recollected that, Milwaukee has always negotiated hr bonds withoutany charge therefor, except the exchange on the money. Mr.

Marshall assures ns, that he has negotiated over $100,000 for Milwaukee on these terms, and considered it' ample com pensation. The Council and the public, will compare the two instances, and draw their own conclusion as to whether the specially olicited letters of New York brokers and professional shavers should be taken as our proper guide of compensation in such cases; or whether we might not, more properly, look to a neighboring city, like Milwaukee, for a rule ot compensation. The matter speaks for itself, and cannot well be misunderstood by honest and faiihful public men, who really have the interest of the city at heart, and not their own. sTho gentleman, pettifoggs at great length, the right of the loan Commissioners to pay their agent, Mr. Mayor, we do not deny the right of the Commissioners to settle with their agent in any proper, open handed way, within the limits of their authority but the appropriating of the money to pay any such sum allowed, we claim was the business of the Council, according to the terms of the charter, Sec.

3, chap. 7. It is to clear to need any argument from me. The gentleman next refers at length, to the duties of the Treasurer, and by a new refer ence to that ambiguous bogus claim in the Commissioner's report, finds ample authority for holding on to the city money, so long as he can get a majority in the Council to sus tain him, no how that majority is got no matter how numerously and respectably signed petitions are sent in from the citizens, requesting him to pay over, like an honest man and faithful officer. He next descants npon the statement made up from the books of the city Treasurer By which he assumes to show that there is no such sum in his hands, as is alleged by the minority report.

In this connection it might be proper to state, that said city treas urer's books have been kept bv 8 iid Van and what kind of ballance he can make them show, we will not undertake to say. But this much we have before said, ami still do say, that the record i of the Council do show that of the special fund aris ing from said loan, and set apart by resolutions introduced by said city Financier him self on. the20th.of August, for building the school houses, city hall, and paying interest, that about of said money, still remains in the hands of said Van-Sly ke, or the Dane Co. Bmk, over and above all that has been paid out, on said building projects. And we challenge the gentleman, or any of his confederates, to show to the contrary except or same outside prac tice, unauthorized by the Council.

No gentlemen, special pleading nor brazen denial will not avail in this matter the record is too plain, and straight, to admit of escapiug the just indignation of honest men, and an outraged public; even though you may escape any criminal pursecution. The talk about an interest account is all gammon, gentlemen, asyoo all well know. It being a device gotten np quite recently, to give the matter a more favorable Hppearance. The Dane County bank has never advanced the city a single dollar, by any authority ot this Council, as is there attempted to be shown. Not dollar have we ever borrowed or asked to borrow of said Bank hence my such pretended advances are all gratuitous, and fictitious in fact, simply gotten up the the cil, or the It the tor the if ty, on I MADISON.

WIS. Mlurdar Erenlnff, ec. 27, 1 830. The Consfqaentn Falsehood. "We publish to-day gome farther extracts from southern papers respecting the apprehended outbreaks among the slaves.

There seems to be, throughout the Southern State, a uneasy, excited, and dangerous disposition among the servile class, resulting from the falsehoods put in circulation by the leaders of the sham Democracy, respecting the principles and aims of the Republican party. The latter has been uniformly denounced as an abolition party. It has been pro-cliiuned on tiie stump, at the polls, everywhere, that the advocates of Fremont's election desired to i iterferf with Slavery in the States. The slave population have heard these assertions. Thev have been taught in this manner to look npon Fremont as their deliverer; to think that in the north a great party has been organized, on principles of strict justice and abstract right, determined to deli ver them from bondage.

This belief, so encouraged, has led them to hope that by an uprising they may precipitate events, and hasten the movements of their northern friends. Fremont, they imagine to be a great captain, at the head of a powerful army, about to hasten to their relief; and this idea has taken such strong possession of their minds that they can smile under the stinging strokes of the driver's lah, that every blow is heard by "Fremont and hi men." This state of things is manifestly the result of the wholesale falsehoods circulated South and North respecting the Republicans. Whatever difficulties and outrages may ensue as a consequence to the slavery propaganda is clearly traceable to their own infamous and unblushing conduct. We see in it the hand of Nemesis, and can feel but little pity for those who have called down such a curse upon their own heads, by reviling and blundering others. Tht Loan Commission.

Aurora Leigh, Mrs. E. B. Browning's new Poem has just appeared. It is pronounced worthy of its gifted authoress, who perhaps more than any woman, living or dead, is entitled to rank among the genuine masters of song.

The New York Tribune says of her new work: A poem of love and art and Italy; the of a woman's genius and a woman's heart, traced through all the seasons of a chequered life, from her suddenly-blighted Spring on to the happy golden honrs in which the harvest-moon of love and fame stands steadfast and serene above her and this poem, the ripest result of years of such devotion to the poetic art as has been always rare, and is now perhaps, more rare than ever; and this history in the deepest and if not in the ordinary and superficial sense, an autobiography ot the only Lnghsh-woman who has ever won for herself an unquestionable place among the greater poets, the Teacher who Instruct mankind From just a shadow on a charnel wall To flud man's ver. ib stature out Erect, sublime" such is the new gift which Mrs. Browning bri g4 tons out of the treasury of her rich mind and heart. To trace a woman's unfolding life, from the close-shut bud up to the fulUweet flower to tell the story ot a woman soul tnrougb all the struggle of long years between the proud aspiring intellect and the humble lov ing heart on to the perfect peace or their na al reconciliation to follow the subtle, secret cou se of a true woman's love through all the IuIm rinth of her will to do this, and to do it with the nrm hand and the clear eye ot a genuine ariist, was Mrs. Browning's lofty aim to have achieved it in the composition of "Aurora Leigh" is nobly to have won a right to all the poor written praise of critics, and the richer unspoken praise ot all who hive eyes to see and hearts to understand the sweet miracles of poetry.

lite importation oi sugar year amounted $21,000,000, -on which duties amounted to $7,200,000. This was a premium upon the production ol 120,000,000 of pounds furnished to the general consumptioujiy Louisiana and Texas, the value of whoso crop was probably not more than or nearly the exact amount paid by the people- each year for the protection of the staple.

The Secretary ot the Interior objected to the large amount ol money to be expended on this object, and stopped proceedings. Mr. Mason hereupon resigned.

THEXECRO EXCITEMENT IN STEWART COCN'TT, TENNL3SEE. An intelligent gentleman, a cit'zen of Stewart County, yesterday informed us that most of the reports in regard to the negro disturbances iu that county, are entirely fab ulous. Be that but seven negroes have been executed in the county four at Dover and three at the forge and nil by a verdict of a committee of responsible citizens, rendered after a calm and careful investigation ol all the circumstances. Five white men. whose complicity with the insurrectionary movements ot'the sLives was established beyond the posMhility of a doubt.

Were severely whipped and driven out of the county. Our informant also says the excitement has abated and entirely ceased, but the ci.izeli-have adopted iieces-ary measures for protec- iion, and are constantly watchful of suspicious white men and unruly slaves, lie says that i here is no truth hatever in the report that the people were abandoning their homes and removing their slaves to other counties. Aa.thviUe Gazette, 18th. What the B'chm nd Enquirer thinks: Every day develapes some freh scheme of revolt among the slaves of the Western and more Southern States. To those already-reported in our columns, we have to add another prepared plan of in-urrection just detected and dele ited in South Carolina.

at lhe same time in so many separ ate localities the-e discoverie suggest the suspicion of a very general spirit of insubor-din uion among lhe negro population. Why should tbi- State alone be exempt from the danger which impended over nearly the entire Southern community. It is not so. In Montgomery county, and in the vicinity ol William-burg, fact- have come to light which warrant the apprehension of an out-break, andju-tif) thecople in. the most summary measures of suppression.

It is a remarkable circumstance in all the-e scheme -i of me litated insurrection that Christmas was selected as i lie day of their accomplishment. Now observing so widespread a spirit icvt It among the slaves, that the sime in-vtl liary cau-es ope we in lull vigor in tl -Stale, and seeing, indeed, that indications of intesde I outbreak have been detected in more counties than one in irgihia, we venture, at the hazard of even exciting apprehension, to inquire if it. is not. the duty of the authorities and ot the people to provide every nece-sary precaution against any demonstration of violence among our own negroes? Shall we not be admonished timely discoveries in. other States? Or, shall we neglect our own security until we.

too, are exposed to extreme alarm, if to actual' peril. WHAT ACTION IT KECOMMEXD8. The military in Virginia is in utter dil ipidation. Out of the cities we have no organized tnems of protection against a sudden emergency. Every consideration, then, siigge-ts the necessity of adopting immediate measures of prevention.

Obvioii-ly the be-t thing to be done under the circumstances, is to appoint patrols for the counties, and to stimulate lhe police of the towns to more rigor and vigilance. It is especially important that the counties should be thoroughly patrolled, so a. to interrupt extensive communications among the shves, and to prevent them from a--embhng in larire numbers. Perhaps, between this and Christmas the Country Conns may not have mi opportuni ty to uteiRi to-Uie matter, but the magis trates ot any district have power to appoint itrols, and th-y should do it without del iv. default of their action, private gentlemen iy concert mea-iires for the discovery and suppression of any meditated outbreak.
