WIsCoNSlN.-We perceive that the people of
Wisconsin are beginning to turn their attention
to the subject of general instruction. Among
the means for educational purposes, in addition
to the sixteenth section of each township as pro-
vided by the organiclaw of the Northwest Ter
ritory, Wisconsin has a gratuity from the Gene
raj Government of two townships of land, for
the establishment and support of State Univer-
sity. 1t has also county tax for educational
purposes, which will, in few years, yield
large sum. These means are considered sufIi-
Gent for the support of the University with
branch in each county of the Territory, and
common school in each neighborhood of half
dozen inhabitants, for nearly or quite six months
in the year. These liberal provisions have here
tofore been suffered to lie neglected, and thus
far there is nothing like system of public in
struction established in Wisconsin. In abiding
to this prospective movement, and in reference
to past neglect, the Cincinnati Gazette saws
ssIt is melancholy to read statements of this
kind. The hope of the Republic rests upon the
proper education Of those who are now children;
and yet we behold one State squandering the
means which were provided for that purpose by
the virtue and the patriotism of the past, and
another neglecGng TO make use of them We
beg leave to suggest to all concerned in the man
agement of these noble endowments, that such
conduct is criminal. And to our friends in Wis
consin, wdo have undertaken to circulate among
the people the petitions to which we have al
luded, webid God speed. Cast your eyes upon
the faulty stewardship Of Ohio-then put your
hands to the plough. and look not back'
