Their accounts have been found to bo correct in every particular. Get Wiiat You Pay for. —In buying Saleratus, as other things, see that you get what you pay for, viz.: 16 ounces when you pay for a pound. If you always buy D. B. DeLand it Co.’s Best Chemical Saleratus , you will never be deceived, but always get full weight and the lest goods. jgjT’The public schools in this village were again apened after a vacation of two weeks, on Monday last. There are over one hundred scholars in attendance at the Grammar school whicn is conducted in the Town Hall by Mr. M, T. Curry, as sisted by Miss A, E. Kane. I=grAs expected the President has re turned the District of Columbia suffrage bill to Congress with his voto attached. Ho appears to be acting more like the “Pharaoh” than the “Moses” of the color ed men. Closing Out. —By reference to our new advertisements, it will be seen that Wheel er & Cos, are offering their immense stock of goods AT COST. These goods, it must be remembered, are not an old stock which has been laying on the shelves for years, but have lately been selected with the greatest care from the best eastern market. They were bought at the lowest wholesale price, and are now offered at cost. Do not fail to call. Accident —Monday afternoon a party of boys were coasting on north Main street when a couple of sleds came in collision, and the boy who was on the foremost sled had both bones of his leg broken. Dr. Page was called £o attend the case, and everything that medical skill could do was done to relieve the suffering of the boy. Racine Journal. Good Templars. —The Good Templars are in a flourishing condition in this city. They have already an organization of little short of three hundred members, which number is being increased every week.— We hope they may continue in the good work until their influence is felt in our midst, and intemperance may be driven from our land.— Mineral Point Tribune The “Singer” Sewing Machine.—Else where in this issue will be found an ad vertisement of the celebrated “Singer” sewing machine. Good judges, those who want machines which will do what they claim to do, and persons'who have worked a variety of machines, alwaysTprcfer the Singer, and in many instances would not accept any other as a gift. These machines are on exhibition and for sale at this offi ce. Call and soe them work before pur chasing any other. jgpr-W. W. Allen, Assistant Surgeon of the sth Wis. Reg. sends the following to be placed on the roll of honor of Wis consin soldiers: “Upon the sth day of April, 1865, the sth Wisconsin Regiment being engaged at Sailor Creek, Va., Cos. A flanked the enemy after a desperate strug gle, and captured Gen. Ewel and staff’, which caused the enemy to fall back, and being pursued by our army, was the di rect cause of Lee’s surrender so soon, he having lost one of his best generals and corps. School Examination.—A school teacher preparing for an examination of his school, selected a class of pupils, and wrote down the questions, and answers to the questions he would put to them on examination da}'. The day came, and the pupils also, except one. They took their seats as designed, and all went glibly on till tho question for the absentee, when the teacher asked : “In whom do you believe?” The pupil who sat next to the vacant seat, without noticing whose question it was, answered, “Napoleon Bonaparte.” “No,” exclaimed the teacher, “In whom do you believe ?” “Napoleon Bonaparte.” Here the teacher began to smell a rat, and hastily said,“You believe in the Holy Ghost, do you not?’' “No,” said the pupil, amid the roars of ' uncontrollable laughter, “the hoy that be lieves in the Holy Ghost hasn’t come to ' school to day. He’s at home, sick a bed.” DODGEVILLE, WIS., THURSDAY, J-A3STXJARY 10, 1867. (Communicated.) Nuisance. It is a fact that the crowd of boys and young—or those who are called such — who prowl around the village on almost every evening of the week, has become a regular nuisance and a pest. Is there no means of quelling this semi-riot that is of nightly occurrence ? Is there no sense of decency left in tho minds of certain young bloods of Dodgevilie that they must haunt the doors of the cells of the jail ? For shame young men I Leave off fre quenting this and other kindred places. Remember that “birds of a feather will flock together.” If you would avoid the intide of a jail, don’t hang around the out tide. We hope the new sheriff' will take the matter in hand and sec that there are no more such nightly orgies held about the Court House. SPY. Getting Sick of the Negro. The St. Louis Democrat in an article under this head makes the following very sensible remarks: “Why do you say so much about the negro ?” ask some people. The tongue touches the tooth that aches. An evil, a wrong, an injustice, always will clamor until it gets righted. All national troubles inevitably center about some na tional injustice. So the French aristocracy used to wonder why the canaille would shout for “bread.” So the English aris tocrat grujnblcs at reform movements, and wonders what on earth the working people want of the ballot. Even so ninety years ago John Bull gruffly demanded why those Americans persisted in making such a fuss about a tax on tea. Injustice always seems a little thing to those who profit by it, and a very great thing to those who suffer. To terminate national troubles, there ia just one si re method —to do equal and ex act justice tt all. Wisconsin Editorial Association. — The proceedings of this association at Janesville last June are just published in a pamphlet of sixty-eight pages. In addi tion to the record of proceedings, the book contains many interesting facts relating to the Wisconsin press. There arc now one hundred and fourteen newspapers and periodicals published in the state. The annual fees paid in to the association last year amounted to $44,00, and tho sub scriptions to SBI,OO. The association is in debt $ll,OO— due Atwood & Rublee for printing. At the Janesville meeting, twenty-nine honorary members were elect ed, fifteen of whom are residents of Chica go, and nine of Janesville. The next an nual session of the association —being the eleventh, will be held at Sparta, at which time Gen. Atwood is to deliver an address. Big.— While Peter Bauer was boring a well on what is known as “the Survey,” situated about three miles west of this vil lage, the drill struck a sheet of mineral. On boring through it was found to be one foot thick. The drill then struck rock, which was penetrated and found to be about eight inches. It again struck a sheet of mineral, and at last accounts the drill was going through a sheet of solid mineral, already having penetrated it three feet. There is considerable speculation as to the extent of this sheet, some claiming it to be a flat opening of vast extent, while others think it is only a small perpendicu lar crevice. It is however at a much greater depth than any of the diggings in the vicinity, and may prove a source of great wealth. the advent of the Christmas holidays the choir of the M. E. Church of this village have been enjoying an almost uninterrupted feast. Their singing has attracted such universal attention, that in vitations to suppers and evening parties from our best citizens have followed in quick succession. Last week a very large party consisting of the choir and their friends, were handsomely entertained at Mr. Joseph George’s. Last evening they enjoyed the hospitality of Col. Stephens, at which time the worthy Colonel and his estimable lady received the thanks of all present for the handsome manner in which they were entertained. Harness Shop —T. W. Murphy, late of Philadelphia, has just opened anew har ness shop in Mineral Point. It is situated on High street, opposite Fred Moellers. His work has been exhibited at many ag ricultural and mechanical fairs in the Eastern States and Canadas, and has al most invariably been awarded the first premium- Call and examine his work and judge for yourself. Racine Journal says that an old man whose name he did not learn, one of j those homeless, houseless wanderers that drift around the world, was found last Saturday morning near the White Sheaf, lying on the ground with only an old piece of carpet thrown over him. He was picked up, and taken into the house, and proper restoratives given to restore him to conaciousnesa. He said that he came from Chicago, had no money and no friends, and had lain down completely ex hausted and overcome with the cold. His hands and feet were so badly frozen, that It is feared they will have to he amputated. DEVOTED TO THE INTERESTS OB' THE PEOPLE. “Am I Not This to Thee ?” A fairy dream that came With evanescent light, Across thy heart of flam* One early autnmn night— Am I not this to thee ? A pearl cast at thy feet, And worn by thee—an hour, Then left where wild waves beat The playthiDgof their power— Am I not this to thee 7 A lone and languid rose, That in thy smile might bloom, Bnt on the distance throws Vainly its faint perfume— Am I not this to tbee 7 A sad and timid star That lured thy gaze a while, Now shining on afar, Forgotten by thy smile— Am I not thiss to thee? A sal/-reniembered strain That once entranced thine ear, Whose music thou again Will tome times sigh to hear, Ain I not this to thee 7 fy~Our readers; in this immediate neighborhood'are generally pretty well in formed as to the kind of weather which we have had during the last few months, but as the rest of mankind may net be as well posted wc wish to inform them that thus far the present winter has been very fine and unusually mild, and while snow has fallen to an unprecedented depth east,west, north, and'south of us, we have been miss ed altogether, as the ground has been al most bare; and now we are fast approach ing the middle of January, and have not yet had a day’s sleighing this winter ; a fact which staggers the recollection of that much quoted and usually prophetic gentle man “the oldest inhabitant.” Qualified for a Backwoods Editor.— A Mr. Gorham takes the place in the Sha wano Journal , of D. A. Pulcifer, who is a member of the Legislature. A P. S. ad ded to this announcement in that paper says: “Gorham isn’t the fighting editor, but is heavy on oysters and sardines.” One of the editors of the same paper, whether the new one or the old one, com plains that his shirt was stolen. lie had gone to bed to have it washed, and the thief took it from the line where it was hung to dry. It had a plaited bosom. Meeting of the Village Board of Trustees. Dobgkville, Monday Evening,) January 7, 1867. j Present—Joseph Lean, President. W. Harris, W Munday, W. 11. Hocking, F. IV.

PATENTED JULY 11th, 1865. IT ISA PERFECT SUCCESS—THE VERY BEST IN THE MARKET. It is a well known fact that oue-half the heat pro duced from the burning of fuel passes rapidly out of the chimney, and is a total loss to the consumer. If this escape c >uld bo checked wholly or in part, the amount of fuel used to attaiu a certain tempera ture would be much less. This object has been fully attained by this new invention. It saves from ODe* third to one-half the fuel. It radiates double tha amount of heat of any cylinder of equal size. It is a spark-arrestor.
