AnUia tf nil mm i-oi rnntions. wlncn. wouiu Incn. wouiu The Fart the Attorney General Played. Geo.

B. Smith stated on Thursday even- in in apology for the part he took in the fraudulent State canvass of 1855, that "there was not a lisp of the suspicion of fraud in the canvass," before, or for ten days after the canvass. A more prodigioas falsehood was never spoken as we sufficiently proved yesterday. We will now add a further fact, to show what part Mr. Smith played in that canvass, and that his attention was directly called to the fact of fraud before the canvass was completed.

In our account of the canvass pnb- ished the day it was concluded, the 17th of December 1855, we find the following Mr. J. 27. Knowlton produced affidavits, SHOWING THAT THE WAUPACA FALLS RETURN WAS NOT THE OF FICIAL RETURN. THE ATTORNEY GENERAL REFUSED TO LOOK Al THEM.

He was asked however, if the Waupaca Falls return included all the votes Dolled in the countv. and admitted that it did not. Mr. Knowlton ha 1 affidavits showing that there was fraud in the canvass. Fifty wit nesses of the fact stated in the above extract could now be presented if necessary.

Geo. B. Smith, the Attorney General, and one of the canvassers was notified of the fact he ws Aslced to look at tbe affidavits and he refused. Now he comes before a Madison audience and with brazen effrontery pleads that he was ignorant that there was fraud in the canvass when it was made, and that no lisp of even a suspicion of fraud in the canvass was heard untiiy ten days after it vm ad." Ta a man who will thus out rage the truth honest Is he worthy of con fidence and respect Is he the fit represent ative of the people of Madison, that he should be chosen as our local member in the As sembly If so, proclaim it to the world by hia alont Inn It not. if honest men are in the majority here, if there is no public sen timent here to endorse lying, ballot-box stuffing, and pilfering from the public Treas ury, vote for IIibam C.

Bull, a man whose valuable services hitherto in that capacity were admitted by the Argus, when no politi cal exigencies closed its columns to the admission of the truth. Gen. null's Record. We explained, on yesterday, the situation of aSkirs at the time Gen. Bull opposed an investigation into the Land Grant frauds.

His course, in that respect was, at the time, iu accordance with the unanimous wish of his constituents. The Argus warmly approved it at the time. His vote against the investigation was on March 1st, 1857 the Argus of March 9th, of the tame year, used the following language respecting his course as a member of the Senate "But now tl at the session has expired, and his acts are before his constituents, OUR POLITICAL DIFFERENCES cannot prevent our paying him the DESERVED COMPLIMENT of having been an UPRIGHT, attentive, and VALUABLE REPSESENTA-TIVE OF MADISON INTERESTS AND DANE Co. He deserves the thanks of his constituency, and we will be the last to deny him the credit tf hating been a prudent and HONEST LEGISLATOR." Now the political differences" of the Argus prevent it from paying him this de-terved compliment," and it meanly attempts to depreciate Gen. Bull's capacity as a legislator and endeavors to impeach his hona ty.

It spoke its opinion then now it is lying in order to promote Geo. B. Smith's election. For the Daily 8Ute Journal. The Patriot says, when speaking of the merits of the various candidates, on the Democratic ticket, vote for Lucius Faik-child, who is eminently fitted for the office for which he is a candidate.

This we pronounce unscrupulously false, as we know he has no knowledge of and possesses no ability to discharge the most ordinary duties of the important office of Clerk of the Court. This is an office requiring not only legal I ut practical ability and experience, and an inexperienced incumbent, without a legal, practical knowledge of the delicate and important duties of the office, would dei ange and hinder the administration of justice, and give but sorry evidence of the want of intelligence of our otherwise staid and discriminating people. Electors of Dane County, If you desire to do right, if you wish to repudiate nominations forced upon you, and that too of candidates whose only recommendation is a readiness to take any office which offers, whether Jit or desert' ing ot the same, then for once and now, dis card all party feeling, and vote for Myeon T. Baily, who has age, and legal character and ability to do, as he has done, ample justice to that office, and keep a clear conscience. Dane.

What the Patriot Really Thinks of Mb. Washburn. At the close of Mr. Washburn's first terra in Congress the Patriot spoke of hi in as follows DISGUISE IT AS WE MAY, Mr. Wash burn is a working member, has never forgot the business interests of his constituents, and.

notwithstanding his politics, is highly popu lar. The Patriot is now attempting to dis guise it." REMEMBER, That the "Forty" have been down on Judge Vilas whenever he has been a candidate for office, or offered to be, since the State Convention of 1853, when he was a delegate to the State Convention, and advocated the nomination of Col. Fairclrild against Wm. A. Bars tow.

ruh tt Rt AU nf not less than TWENTY MILLIONS! The Honest Opinion of the Argus. WliaJ It said wlieu Political difference did not prevent It from paying liiiu a le-served Compliment READ! The Argue is attempting to depreciate Gen. Bull's capacity as a Regulator and speaks of him as a very pleasant man, without the ability to do any good. This kind of talk can do no harm In this community, where Gen. Bull is so well known, and where his ability and tact as a member of the Legislature are so fresh in the recollection of the people.

Two years ago he represented this district in the Senate, and it was during that term, that more was accomplished to advance our local iuterests than had been done in years before; and had he been in the Senate last winter, our intertsts would not have been in such neril. Ilia viirilant eve would have foreseen tbe onslaught which was made up on us, and bis great popularity and shrewd management would have arrested it at once. But owing to the entirewant of capacity, connected with the sxeat odium attached to tbe r.liarftpter of hia successor, the enemies of the town came very near effecting its ru in. Gen. Bull is a man of most decided ability.

He does not claim to make loud and long speeches, 6imply for the sake hearing the sound of his own voice, but he has a happy faoulty of expressing bis views in a clear, logical manner, and with force and effect. Tbis he fully demonstrated in his Senatorial career, and in proof of al we have said, we have only to refer to the files of the Argus. In that paper of March 9, 1857, published on the day of the close of the session of the Legislature of that year. we find the following complimentary notice of Gen. Bull Read it and see how it com pares with the present tone of that paper.

Tbis article was written when the General's acts were fresh in the minds of the editors and wlien there was no political reason for speaking other than their honest sentiments Here is the article Gkn. Bull. We warmlv opposed the election of this gentleman to the State Sen ate. and would have rejoiced in his defeat, But now tliat the session has expired, and hit acts are before his constituents, OUR POLITICAL DIFFERENCES CANNOT PREVENT OUR PAYING HIM THE DESERVED COMPLEMENT OF HAV ING BEEN AN UPRIGHT, ACTIVE, AND VALUABLE REPRESENTATIVE OF MADISON INTERESTS AND OF DANE COUNTY. lie has evidently not been actuated by any desire to make political capital, but has devoted himself to the measures of impor tance to our local advancement.

Me deserves tht. thanks of his constituency, and we will be the last to deny him tlte credit of hating been a prudent and honest legislator. Geo. It. as a Statesman.

Some time last summer, Geo. B. as Mayor directed Mr. Conley, the Chief of the Police, to enforce the ordinance prohibiting hogs from running at large. Handbills to that effect were speedily posted up, and those fragrant frequenters of our thoroughfares were in danger of being driven into pound But Geo.

B. soon discovered that the meas ure was very unpopular in the shanty dis tricts of the 1st and 4th wards, and there noon countermanded the orderj and sent old Thomas MoGlynn to visit all the shanties and inform the Irishmen that he bad noth ing to do with tbe matter; that Mr. Conley acted without his knowledge, and that he had directed him not to enforce the ordi nance. We have these facts from an Irishman who saw Tom. McGlynn while he was out on his mission.

Such is a specimen of Geo, political maneuvering. The Irishman are all satisfied that he will enforce the ordinance immediately af ter election. Just now he wants their votes, Gen. Hull and the Land Grant Investiga lion. nen me urosse railroad company were apparently going to work in good faith to fulfil their obligations, while the com pany still had credit abroad, and the people of the State very generally were opposed to doing anything to impair that credit and stop the work upon the road, Gen.

Bull op posed an investigation. the Senators who voted with him on this subject at the time, were Cook, of Sheboygan, Bean, then of Jefferson, Hanchett, of the Pinery dis trict, Kimball, of Marquette, and Wheeler, of Winnebago, all of whom favored and voted for the investigation last winter, because the company had then shown itself faithless to its pledges, and by its reckless management had lost all credit both at home and abroad. Gen. Bull openly took ground in favor of investigation last fall a ad had he been in the Senate last winter would, unlike Andrew Proudfit, have beea one of the foremost to urge a full and impartial investigation of the whole subject.

A grand jury his fellow-citi zens, summoned in the usual manner, irre spective of party, after hearing the evidence, INDICTED GbOKGE B.

Pinney, now the candidate on the demo- cratic ticket for District Attorney, was de cided by Judge Cothren to be technically insufficient, and on that technicality Geo. B.

Smith escaped a trial. We readily admit that many innocent men have been indicted by grand juries; but in nocent men are not generally anxious to es cape trial, by taking advantage of a flaw in an indictment. They usually prefer to go to trial, and establish their innocence. Such does not seem to have been the desire of Geo. B.

Toward all mankind Us has exhibit ed abundant mercies, and upon us has showered iuaamerabla blessings.

Seed time and harvest came and are gone, and the fat earth hath yielded its great harvests and its fruits, every tree and every plant bearing seed after its kind. His bow has keen still in the clouds. His avenging rod has been withheld, and the postilenee that walketli in dark ness, and the destruction that wasteth at noonday, have passed by us. In science and art, and in Intellectual development, the whole earth has been astonished at con tinued and startling snccesses and achievements. All trades, business avocations, professions and pursuits, have met every where with the success they have deserved.

In all things commendable and useful, and of good report, we have met the ap proving smile of our Father who is in Heaven. "The works of the Lord are great, sought oat of all them that have pleasure therein. "His work is honorable and glorious, and His righteousness enduretb forever. "He hath made His wonderful works to be remembered the Lord is gracious and full of com passion. "He bath given meat onto themthat fear Him He will ever be mindful of His covenant.

"The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wis dom; a good understanding have all they that do his commandments; His praise endureth forever." For all his bounties and mercies, and loving kindness and care, we owe the homage of grateful humble and obedient hearts. Following a venerable and wisely instituted custom, I therefore do hereby appoint, Thursday, tbe 25th Day ot November next, as a day-of Thanksgiving and Prayer and Praise. And I commend that day to tne observance or the good people of this state, en joining mem to aostain cnereon trom all sec ular avocatiens and employments, excepting only works or necessity ana mercy. In Testimony Whbrkof, I have hereunto sub scribed my name, and caused the Great l. s.

Seal of the State of Wisconsin to be af fixed. Done at Madison, this 27th day of Oetober, in the year of our Lord, one thousand eight hundred and nfty-eight. By the Governor, ALEX. W. RANDALL.

J. D. Rcggles, Ass't Sec'y of State. The Last Week I The present should be a busy week with Republicans. The unfinished work ehould be closed up systematically, so that nothing shall remain for Monday or Tuesday but to render the verdict of GUILTY against the Pro-Slavery Administration.

Assuming mat tne is now com pleted, nothing is wanting bnt THREE MEN with THREE TEAMS in EACH SCHOOL DISTRICT to bring every Republican voter to the polls. One other thing There are "Ballot Box Stuffers" here well as in Kansas. See, therefore, that tbe balloting beaini with clean Boxes. Remember, friends, that the Sbam De raocracy always vote. IF IT SHOULD riAiix, otu buiJi iu VUliSJ a your motto be "Any rain but the reign of Dough Faces The Corruptionists are They Not a single man connected with the i-4tuu OTttuc corrupuuu ur xouu una uteu i nominated by the Republican party for any office within the gift of the people the pre sent year.

No man tainted with corruption bonds, occupied a seat in cither of the three Republican Congressional Conventions, or in the Republican State Convention. New let us see how it stands with our op ponents in this respect Bbriah Bkowx, a 52,000 man, is running for Congress in the 1st District. Jackson Hadlby, a $220,000 man, is the regular nominee for the State Senate in Mil waukee. IT. T.

Sanders, a $3,000 man, is tbe dem ocratic candidate for Assemblyman from Ra cine. G. B. Smith, an $8,000 man, is running in this district. Isaac Woodlb, a $20,000 man, is the dem ocratio nominee in Janesville.

In the convention which nominated Bk- eiah Beowk, corruption bonds were repre sented as follows Jackson Hadley, a 1220,000 man, Byron Kilbourn, 75,000 man, Charles E. Jenkins, a 25,000 man, Thomas Falvey, 20,000 man, H. T. Sanders, a 5,000 man, M. Schoeffler, 5,000 man, Total, $335,000 In the convention which nominated Chas.

Dunn, the hardly less con-spicions. Among its were Wm. Pitt Dewey, $10,000 man, Geo. B. Smith, a 8,000 man, Meses M.

Strong, a 25,000 man, W. J. Gibson, 38,000 man, D. Reymert, a. 1,000 man, Is there any doubt as to which party is the party of fraud and corruption? The Re publicans who fell before the corrupting influences of 1856, have all been dropped the corrupted Democrats are not only brought out for offices of the highest trust, but shape the whole policies of their party.

A 20,000 Man Nominated. The Democracy of Janesville have nominated Isaac Woodle, for the Assembly. Mr. Woodle is a $20,000 in La Crosse bonds, and therefore qualified to run on the regular Democratic ticket for the Assembly this year. "We want to carry the Legislature and get control of the railroads and State Government.

Geo, B. Smith got only $8,000 in the dis tribution of La Crosse bonds in 1856. What show wonld Madison have in the Legislature in comparison with Janesville the one with a $20,000 representative, and the other with only an $3,000. Iet the People Remember, That in addition to decided ability Bull has great popularity with men of all parties, which will render him doubly effective in promoting his measures in the Legis lature. No amount of ability could overcome the odium that attaches to tbe character of his opponent, Gk.

WOK WEELLYTOV THE LEGISLATURE the class ot men nominal wmm wvu4v4Ckjr A Letter from Mr. Maratou. Madibon, Oct. 30th, 1858. Messrs.

Editors I have noticed, in several issues ol tbe Argus, insinuations! that Judos Vilas had been connected, during his residence in Vei- mont, with a fraud upon the ballot-box "ballot-box stuffing, "votes on tissue pa per," but while confined to insinuations iu so low and degraded a sheet as the Argus has become, under its present editors, 1 could not regard it worthy of notice. But I am imformed, from a very reliable source, that at Westport, a day or two since, Haelow S. Orton, his opponent iu this Assembly canvass, made direct charges of this sort orminut the in a rjublic meeting. 1 confess my surprise at such rashness on the part of Mr. Orton.

I knew all about the matter, at the time, and was intimately acquainted with the whole traaction. There was a fraud committed at a poll, at one time, when Judge Vilas was a candidate, but there never was a particle of proof or belief, that he was a party to it, or connected with it. On the contrary, the better opinion was, that it was committed on the opposite side, and to defeat his election. The canvassers so decided, and gave him the certificate of election. He, however, was so conscientious in the matter, that he would not claim a seat under it, unless it was ascertained to the satisfaction of all parties, how the fact was and he immediately after election, issued to the public a card to that effect, and offered his opponent the privilege of another poll, which he declined.

No man stood higher in tbe btate when he left it, than Judge Vilas, for probity and integrity. To show the estimate in which he was held by men of all parties, it is only necessary to state tbe fact, which occurred but a short period before he left, while be was a member of the State Senate. The Senate consisted of thirty members, twenty-three of whom were Whig, and seven (himself one of the latter) were Democrats. In the absence of the Lieut. Governor, Judge Vilas was unanimously elected President pro tern, of the Senate a testimonial of re spect to a political opponent rarely to be found on record.

Your ob't servvnt, J. T. MARSTON. Republicans Remember! That II. 0.

Bull waa elected Senator in 1856, in a district of 400 or 500 democratia majority. To whom was he indebted for bis eleotion but democrats Remember That H. A. Tenney, the same year, was elected to the Assembly in a district of 200 or 300 democratic majority. Wh but democrats elected him And, Remember That that was the year that all your local measures were carried through tbe Legislature triumphantly the Capital extension, the main edifice of the University, and nil Remember that Tenney only lacked a few votes of an election last year.

How many democratic votes do you suppose he got then? Remember that Tenney, last year, received 38 majority it the First IFard, when Buchanan had 140 majority in 1856. Who but democrats produced this result And also Remember that Cross had only 40 majority in this ward last year, thus reducing Buchanan 100 and electing the real second Jackson, Gov. Randall I Xow, then, is it a hardship for you to vote for tbe candidates of the Democrats, who have produced these results these great results Is it not rather, just and righteous that you should go to the polls and support cordially Hon. L. P.

Vilas for the Assem-bly. A RANDALL DEMOCRAT. The Victory in Iowa! IOWA TO HER SISTER STATEES, GREETING At this present writing, it is demonstrated, beyond doubt, that Iowa has elected the whole Republican State ticket, and that she is Republican 'n every department, for the first time, having A REPUBLICAN SECRETARY OF STATE A REPUBLICAN AUDITOR OF STATE A REPUBLICAN STATE TREASURER' A REPUBLICAN ATTORNEY GENE RAL, A REPUBLICAN REGISTER OF LAND OFFICE A REPUBLICAN COMMISSIONER OF D. DEPARTMENT, and TWO REPUBLICAN CONGRESSMEN. The contest in this, the 1st Congressional District, is close between Col.

Curtis ard Mr. Trimble; but tbe majority of the former will not be less, we think, than 500 votes. Vandever, in the 2d District, has about 2,000 majority. The majority of the Re publican State ticket will be not far from 2,500. Nearly all the Judicial Districts in the State have gone Republican.

In view of the gross misrepresentations and falsehoods that have been circulated thick as the flies in Egypt, against the State Administration, the victory is the most brilliant ever achieved in Iowa, proving that her people are nnchangably Republican. De Moines Citizen. Timely Hits. Frcm the Louhvllle Journal. It is a remarkable circumstance, that while a renegade Federalist occupies the executive chair, two renetrade Whm fra Georgia control, with dictatorial power, all the policy of the Government.

The tri jm-irate of Buchanan, Toombs, and Stephens is one of the curiosities of American politics. The Democr its at the Eastwn-1 1 been holding glorification meetings because they were not entirely overpowered week before last. These triumphs are likA of old In which troops of furies marched. The Washington Phian has discovered "a strange political phenomenon whib that "a large class of naturalized rtiti. have gone over to the Republicans 1" The leaves fall from the trunk of Da- mocracy in October, and in NnvpmW sap wilf begin to eetfle down.
