Fairbank’s Scales.—lt is a significant
fact, which the public will appreciate, that
whenever new scales are put upon the market,
as large numbers have been from time to time
during the last thirty years, it seems to be the
first and chief aim of the makers to show that
they are the same as Fairbanks,’ or like them,
or are improvements npon them, or have ta
ken premiums over them, thus recognizing t! ■
latter as the standard fur excellence, andshow
ingthe etrong hold they have upon the public
confidence. It is a Will known fact that
while mc-j.t. of this* l scab s have, r.ft< r moie or
lets trial, passed mainly out of use, Fair
banks’ have gone steadily forward, increasing
in j nblic favor year after year, and are now
much more generally used than al! others, not
| only in thia country, but wherever American
' commerce Las been carried. This could not
be so if they were not all that is claimed for
them in respect to their durability, as w< 11 as
convenience and accuracy.— Chicago Tribune.
Patriotic R< solutions. —At the m eting
of the St. Croix Valley Baptist Association,
in this city last week, the following resolu
tions were passed:
Whereas. Ti e extreme South is in open re
bellion against the government of the United
States ; Laving audaciously declared its inde
pendence of the same. Laving siirreptioua y
seized Federal forts, ships, munitions and mo
ney, Laving moreover contemptuously abne
gated the Declaration of Independence by
treating it as a tissue, of rliltei ing generrl ’-
ties, having wickedb attacked the flag of the
Union, when peacefully floating over our own
forts and ships, and having likewise sacrili
giously trampled in the dust the Constitution,
the citadel of our hones and li?>erties, as well
as the gift of our beloved Washington and his
compeers to these States: And. W/t reas. In
times like these, it is the duty of every Chris
tian citizen to declare his position, then fore.
Resolved. That as an ecclesiastical body, we
hereby proclaim our loyalty to the Constitu
tion, believing it to contain more of the jus
tice and good will of tlie Gospel of the Sos of
God than any other similar national instru
ment under the sun ; and our loyalty to the
government «f the United States, auainst the
equity and justice of which the reb< Is them
selv. s have not ventured to make a declaration
of grievances/although a decent respect for
the opinions of mankind required them to
do so.
2d. That we denounc° Secession as Treason,
based solely and only on the wicked, heit'ien
ish, and Heaven-daring sysi-.m of African
Slavery, and that its leaders are rebels and de
serve the rebel’s fate.
3d, That the present deplorable war in
which we are involved, is not cbargoabl ■ t >
the North ; and it is with intensost shame and
indignation that we learn that the Southern
Baptist cr.nvent'on charges its origin in con
travention of all transpiring facts to the ever
1 loyal North. A faithful history of the times
’ fix the base stigma upon the
1 i we now publicly and religiously
. pledge our payors, our fortunes, aur lives.
< and oui sacird honor, to the maintenance of
i the L mon and Constitution, and whither nev
er the Stars and Stripes, the l-> T .d emblem of
our nation’s greatness and glory Hh a ]] go thith
er we will go. Thus far it hath ’ed us to vic.
tory—its career must eventuate, under the
blessing of God,, in millennial glory.
Personal. —John F. Marsh, late Postmas
ter at this place, has been drumming up for
volunteers in this city, to fill the ranks of the
Prescott (Wis.) Guards, for tlie war. Mr.
Marsh will probably go with the Prescott
Company into active service ; he served du
ring the Mexican war, and will be an import
ant aid to the Prescott boys.— Hastings Jnde
pendant.
Hurrah for Marsh!—Mr. Mabsh will
have an Ice Cream Stand on the Fair Grounds
on Thursday, and respectfully invites lhe
Prescott Guards to partake of Ice Cream, af
ter dinner is disposed of, in the following or
der :
Ist, Commissioned Officers.
2d, Non-Commissioned Officers.
3d, Privates-—in squads of ten nacn.
Mr. Marsh will furnish ice and water for
die occasion.
THE PBESCOTT JOURNAL, WEDNESDAY, JUNE W, 1861.
The Prescott Guards. —This company
now numbers nearly,one hundred, and before
leaving will doubtless be filled up to the max
imum number. They are actively engaged
in drilling, and Capt. Dill Iffis received word
that they will be ordered into campat Madi
son, the last of this week or the first nf neit.
The county, of course, is proud to have them
go, but many familiar faces will be mowed af
ter their departure.
Last fall, on the receipt of the Prize Ban
ner by this county, we wrote—
Peace bath l.er victories, and the land
Which honors thus her sons of toil,
Shall never want a willing hand
To guard or till her fruitful soil.
The call to arms has come Conner than was
thought but the response has been prompt
and cheerful. We doubt whether there is an
other agricultural locality in the whole North
which has sent out more soldiers in propor
tion to the number of the population, than
this. Honor to the soldier boys. They ought
to have a grand supper before they leave.—
W 1 o will stir about getting up one ? The
following is a list of the members of the com
pany :

Mail Matters —Mail matters in this
county are assuming a better shape. Already
the daily mail from here to Hudson goes
through River Falls, and a tri-weekly route
from here to Eau Claire will soon be let, pas
sing through Trimbelleand Ferry.
The La Crorse Republican copies an article
from this paper on a daily mail up Lake St.
Cr<; r nJ a ’.ls :
“ The citizens of Prescott, Hudson, Siill
watir, and St, Croix Falls should get up
s' ort an ! wi ll signed petitions in favor of this
daily St Croix n ail, and have the same en
dorsed by the Pirstmaster of ca h place res
p. i tivcl”, and we will co-operate in T.a Crosse
with our St Croix fr-enc's xnort lu artily. The
Postmasters of I.aCaoss-, Madison, Milwau
kee, and Chicago will doubtless approve of it,
and our Coiigri ft-ioual t. lends will probably
give it their aid. If cur St. Croix \ alley
friends will had off they can command onr
Lest services.
Store at the County Seat.—N S. Dun
bar Las established a store at the County
Seat. It will be a great accommodation to
the people in that i-cction.

Departed friends! Good bye—no—we mean
we congratulate you, that is we wish you
well yes,—no use in talking, we can’t express
our feelings.
The Dr. called on us the day after this lit
tle episode in his existence, and (we may be
mistaken.) but we thought we detected him
humming that old hymn to Hymen, beginning
•• Let fools spurn Hymen s gentle hours.
We who improve his golden hours,
By sweet experience know ;
That marriage rightly undeistood,” etc., etc.,
from which we inferred that as Biigham
Young told A Ward, he liked it as far mhe
had got. Nuff sed.
