Mawtson, Sc-ptcmber Summer visitors have departed, the State Fair is ended, conventions are terminated, and party strife scarcely yet begun, so that the capital city is somewhat monotonous. The dropping autumn leaves in the parks are disturbed only by the rakers, who ruthlessly gather them up and consign them lo the wasteheaps and marshes and along the i lake shore.

The unexpected death of George B. Smith, on tbe morningof the 19th, was the leading event last week. Throughout tbe State tbe deceased i was known as an able lawyer, and active Di mocratic politician. Here he was known and esteemed as a get dal gentleman, and valuable citi- Z( and kind-hearted ftieml and neighbor. 1 have yet to hear the first resident speak of him in other terms; however they differed with him on questions of politics, or whatever they thought, of some of his acts as a politician.

His funeral on Monday was attended by a vast multitude, many having come from Chicago, Milwaukee and other distant points to swell the procession of mouruet s. Tho si lection of James G. Jenkins to fill the blank in tho Democratic State ticket occasioned by withdrawal, is gem-rallly accorded to be as respectable as could be for under the circumstances. Mr. Jenkins is reputed to be a lawyer of fair abilities, a man of good personal character, and a Democrat of that in I -SGI, asserted that there was no power under the Constitution to coerce a rebellious State back into the Union; who, in istil.

declared the war for tho preservation of the Union a failure; who still adhere to the States lights heresy, who sustain the Southern biigadiets at Congress, in their efforts to remove all safe-gaurds from the ballot, and leave it to bo freely violated by hot guns, bludgeons and fraud; who in 1 f-77, pandered to the. soft-money theory, in the hope of eaU hiug votes, and who in are us positive in favor of tho Republican lltiam ial doctrine as Republicans ar themselves. Mr. has been a I)- mocrat when that party was a part) traitors, and would doubtless continue to he a Democrat it again it should undertake lehellion as is not impossible if the Southern rs succeed through the help of Democrats like Jenkins at the north, in getting full control of live Government, as they had in 18(10. That Mr.

name was never mentioned in connection with the Gubernatorial convention (though ho was there iu person, and took special pains Lo let his presence be known to the delegates), is conclusive evidence that tie is not such a man as would ho suggested fur the position if there were the least probability of bis election. All State departments are just now I usily occupied compiling the several pi rts required to be mr.de for the fiscal year which closes with this month. TJio expense of (his work aggregates to the State a considerable sum, which is supposed to 1 compensated by the information to tin- people relative to the trauaction of State business. Which might be etter sustained it Unpeople could he induced to give (ho documents more careful examination than they generally do, when copies I aro furnished them. Asa rule the official reports of tire several depart- ments arc creditable documents, and contain a fund of information concerning matters, of public interest that every tax payer at least cim-ht to comprehend In advance it is sale to promise that tho forthcoming reports will show tho administration for the past year to have been commendable for efficiency and prudent economy.

With pleasure I note the ronominatiou by of Win. A. Jones for County School I Superintendent. Of course his re- election is foregone, for it is uot possible that our political opponents can present a candidate of comparative merit, T.tnesa and our neighbor, the Democrat practically and sensibly admits. Rev.

Benson is iu attendance upon the Conference, at La Crosse, this week. The church here, I understand, desires his return to the charge, but many church people think it not unlikely that he will be appointed Presiding Elder, to succeed Dr. Huntley, who has been elected President of Lawrence University. Asa P. Mr.

Benson would unquestionably honor the district. Asa pastor his merit is already established and recognized here, as everywhere ho has labored. VV. 11 B. A NOT A RLE feature of tbe platforms of the New York and Wis cousin Democrats is the true ring of ttie hard money plank in eachanother vindication of Republican wisdom and honesty.

While the latter party has sturdily adhered to true principals on financial questions, the former have yielded to every impulse, drifted with every change of the popular current, swayed with every passing breeze of flat whim, hoping to gain some temporary advantage which they could make permanent. The steady presentation of a my raid of incontrovertible arguments by the Republicans has at length had its effect and convinced that further support of nl ackism is impolitic the Democracy of both states hastens to record against itself one more add to tho list one more instance where tho Republicans were and they were wrong. Xnrs. -i- The Wisci-nsiti Prohibitionists met in Oshkosh, Thursday last, and put tho foliowing ticket in the field: Govet nor, W. R.

Bloomfield, of Raeine; Lieutenant Governor, J. 11. of Stevens Point; Secretary of State, O. 11. Prowl, of Beaver Dam; State Treasurer, Rev.

W. T. Mill a-, Emerald Grove; Superintendent of Public Instruction, 1). W. Uiiftllan, of Trempealeau; Attorney General, Jas.

Freeman, of Oshkosh. The platform adopted is the sumo as that of the National Ptohibition party, which met at Clevland, May IT, UTC. Tin: ravages of the epidemic at mphis are abating somewhat, but the Board of Health has deemed it necessary to i-sue a circular warning absentees against returning to the city. In this circular the board state that the diminution in the imm- Der of new eases and of deaths is duo simply to the fact of tho small unacclimated population now remaining in the city. The new cases for the last week numbered eighty, making the whole number thus far The death reported for the week were thiriy-one, making the total mortality IG.

The two-cent postal-card is coming, and will soon be in circulation. It has two stamps, one at each end, and spaces for two messages. Tho sender who desires information valuable to himself occupies one of the spaces, and return correspondent the other. One stamp is cancelled at the otlice from which it is originally sent, and the other at the return office. if it the many assurances given by the Democratic press that Jenkins is the best, man that could have been placed at the head of the Democratic ticket, the people become more and more astonished that the party leaders were to long in finding out his great merits.

A host of prominent names were canvassed in the late convention with reference to the Gubernatorial nomination, but that of Jenkins was not among them, though be was present and made himself prominent I his much speaking. It took a long time to discover his greatness; but the Democrats insist ho is great. General Grant, who was treated with great cordiality by tbe of San Francisco, left that city for the Yosemite valley yesterday. During October he will extend his travels to Oregon, Nevada and Coloredo. and lie in Chicago at the meeting of the Society of the Army of the Tennessee, November 5 ami G.

The New York Tribune of Saturday last publishes a full statement Mrs. Chisholm, giving in d-tail the facts and circumstances of the brutal murder at De Kalb, Mississippi, of her husband and children, nu the 20th day of April, 1577, one lof the perpetrators of which has 1 lately been acquitted by the mock verdict of an intimidated jury. The recital fills an entire page of the and is so circumstantial in its stat-ments as to carry with it conviction of its truth. It is enough to stir up tin- indignation of the most indifferent and phlegmatic to fever heat against the barbarous assassins that then controlled and now control the political and social affairs of that benighted region.
