HOGS HEAD AND Rum.
Mn. EDITOR

Mn. EDITOR:
TO see men trying to navigate our streets with
one, two or three sheets in the wind is not Who'll
ly an uncommon thing. But sometimes there
circumstances connected with it that make the
practice of drinking appear in very unfavorabe
light. To-day, as 1 passing along Main st,
a stranger crossed the street before me, and went
into dram shor. lie appeared to be pretty well
strapped In his hands he had hogs head, and
q small one too, and in his pocket what appeared
to be a bottle of rum. A strange bringing togcth-
CT, hogs head and rum. Probably he had spent
enough for rum to buy a ham instead of head !;
and how much better it would have been for him.
his wife, children, neghbors, and the community
in which he resides Then he might have gone
to blcs, his faithful wife and children, and they
would have welcomed him with JOY, and domestic
happiness would have smiled around his cheerful
freside, and plenty sat laughing at his bountcous
board inviting to the rich repast morning, noon,
and evening. But now he will 60 to his home,
probably, to meet an anxious, careworn wife, rag
ed, ignorant children, and he himself beast, and
on his table, instead of ham, there will sit hogs
head But the man that sold him the rum, will
probably have ham; he can afford it as long as
there are so many poor drunkards buying head
And there are some of our citizens who turn the
corner of a certain street. certain times in day,
and 60 into a certain shop, and come out again
with certain pleasant, agreeable smile on their
countenancc, and wiping their mouths in certain
comfortable way that, fear, will have to do as
this stranger is doing-carry home head instead of

We hope, Mr.. Editor, that soon we shall have

KENosHA AND BELoIT RAILRoAD.-We
are glad to learn that the people in the seye-
raj towns in this county, are generally fayo-
rable to the railroad enterprise, from this place
west Petitions to the Legislature, asking
for the passage Of an act, authorizing the
county to lend its credit in aid of the build
ing of the road, have been quite extensively
signed. This construction of the road would
greatly add to the value of real estate; and
if the land owners are satisfied that the road
would be paying one, they will run no ha-
gard in lending the credit of the county to
aid its building.

REsCINDING REsOLUTIoNs-Thc Wash
ington County Blade, Pierce and King pa
per, holds the following decisive and truthful
language, in respect to the resembling rcsolu-
tons in the Senate, and the movers Of the
reckless maneuver:
"Resolutions are now before our Legislature
to rescind the instructions to our Senators
and Representatives. in Congress in relation
to the application of the Wilnot Proviso in
the organization of New Territories. The
subject has been under consideration since
the commencement of The Session, and we
rejoice to say, will probably be defeated.
We cannot believe that the democracy Of
Wisconsin viii deliberately sacrifice their in
tegrity and work their own overthrow for the
benefit of few yoraciaus office seekers, who
would not hesitate to cut their Threats for
personal advancement, and some of whom
were first and foremost in procuring the pas
sage of these instructions. We hope Presi-
dent Pierce may rightly appreciate the ex
tremev dsinterested motives Of these latter
gentlemen, and give them the reward their
disinterestedness deserves.
1t s said that motives of policy will prevent
the passage Of the resembling resolutions
With us considerations Of right would weigh
heavier in the scale than policy, but if it is
only prevented, we will not grumble at the
motives 1t will be enough to know that
the integrity of the democracy is preserved"

BISHOP IVES.

A letter formally resigning the office of
Bishop of North Carolina has been address
sed by Bishop Ives to the Episcopal Dioces-
an Convention of that State. In his letter
of resignation, he briefly sets forth the reas-
ons which have induced him to embrace the
Catholic faith. The Bishop states that his
mind had long been exercised and harrassed
in respect to his position; that he abandon
ed the reading of Catholic books and sought
relief in travel; but nevertheless his Dispute

Tampertrg with the school Law.


Col. Miller, Senator from Rock County,
is endeavoring to amend the School Law
perhaps intentionally for the better, but we
fear for tha worse. There were attempts
made in the Legislature last winter to alter
the school law, which if they had been sue
eessful, would have very much embarrassed
the progress of the schools. We are sorry
to see so respectable paper as the'Janesville
Gazette proposing amendments to the school
law, which are entirely antagonistic to the
principle of Free schools The Gazette pro-
poses to exempt certain class of property
holders from taxation, by amending the law
as follows:
LET the division of the public money be
made as 1t now is, up n the whole number
of child. en- in the district, and let the county
tan be collected as is now done upon all the
property of the district and the school house
tax be levied as at present Then let those
who choose, waive their rights to the use of
the District School bv an exemption from
further tax for its support, This would,
OF course, lessen the number of children
in attendance, to some extent diminish
the cost of support, and give to those who
use the school, better faculties for instruction
by enabling the teacher to give more atten-
ton to each pupil. Such plan would ex-
clude no one arbitrarily from school, but leave
choice of attendance or an appropriation
of the avails of the exemption to secure in
struction elsewhere"
Should an amendment so unwise as this
prevail, the number of children now atten-
ding school in the state, would be diminish
ed at least one fourth and per haps one-third.
A large proportion of school districts would
not be able to support good schools, and ma
ny Of them not any school, if they were not
allowed to tax all the property within the
limits Of the district Bnt this is not all
In Wisconsin we profess to have adopted the
free school system. This system is based
upon the principle that property has a duty
to perform in the matte of education. And
inasmuch as property is indebted for its safe
ty and protection to the blessings of general
education, it is therefore just to tax property
in order to furnish the means of free educa-
ton to the rising general. on. Any require
ment of property less than this, stops short
the free schools.

WHAT RAILROADS Do.-The village of
Whitewater, Walworth Co., prior to the com
pletion of the Milwaukee and Mississippi
road to that place, was a quiet inland town,
doing moderate business with the popula-
ton in its immediate vicinity. But since the
construction of the railroad to that place, it
has assumed an entirely new aspect in bust
ness matters, During the past four months,
there have been brought into that town, $50,
900 bushels of grain, 5000 bbls. offour and
one million pounds of pork. Upwards Of
fifty new buildings, it is estimated, will be
put up in the spring; and among them, two
large warehouses. There has been large
rise in real estate all along the line of the
road

the question at issue is settled beyond all contro

related. An incident was mentioned where orc
man, in attempting to deposit his 18th vote, was
overcome by "native modesty," and passed his
vote in on pole, keeping himself out of sight of
the Inspector. "What name z" said the Clerk

Difference in favor OF Lake Shore,
milwaukee and BeIoit Railroad.

4 bill to charter a rail road from Milwaukee to
Bcloit, by way of Rochester, Racine Co., was in
troduccd in the Assembly last week. The Madi-
correspondent of the Milwaukee Sentinel
says, this new PROJECT becomes thing of ncces-
sity, if Milwaukee wishes to secure and retain the
trade Of the Rock River Valley"
This railroad schcmeiis intended TO connect with
road chartered recently by the Legislature of III
inois, running from Rockton (ncar BeIoit) in a
southwestern direction by way of Frceport to Sa-
vannah, on the Mississippi river.

Fox River Improvement.

1t appears from the special message of Gov.
tarwell, sent to the Legislature, that the whole
amount expended on this improvent so far,
is s300,459, and the cost of completing the
work is estimated at s310,564. Questions
OF grave Importance now arise as to what
disposition shall be made of the matter
The funds are pretty much expended, and
the work not half completed. The state has
probably already incurred public debt, and if
the work is allowed to 90 on under the SUI
pervlslon Of the state officers, large state
liability will be incurred On the other hand,
if the work stops, much injustice will be done
to the inhabitants on the line of the propos-
ed Improvements and all that has thus far been
done will be unavailable. From present ap-
pearances it would seem, that whatever tone
of policy the state may adopt, much disas-
er and embarrassment must follow.
a Madison correspondent Of the Water
town Chronicle writes as follows:
The Eox and Wisconsin River IMPROVE
ment swindle bids fair to be hauled over the
Goals; and the prospect is, that it will, if
stripped naked and fairly exposed, reveal a
pretty state of things-probably the most
stupendous swindle that has ever been at
tempted, and one from which we will only
be saved, if at all, by the staunch action Of
an honest and straight forward Governor, CO.
operating with corresponding integrity in
the Legislature. We shall know and hear
more of this matter before the next session
is over, and all who are not partly blind and
mad, will have a chance to realize the differ
ence between honest men in high places,
and tine-serying political rogues
