State Teachers Association.

We published a week or two since, at length,
the official notification of the meeting of the above
association. Our readers will bear in mind that
it meets at Racine on Wednesday next. Every
sion both profitable and interesting. The merit
of our schools depends upon the excellence of the
teachers, therefore this movement lays at the We
ry base of our free school system. 1t should be
attended and encouraged then by all who have
the interest of our schools at heart.

rY-The West Bend tragedy, as detailed in our
paper to-day, will no doubt enlist the attention
of our readers. From first to last it is brutal al
most beyond precedent. What can be done to
prevent such state of affairs, will no doubt be
the question in every mouth, and the answers
will no doubt be as varied and numerous as those
who answer. In accounting for such a state of
things or suggesting the remedy we should be
brief Such things are the result of lack of in
telligence morality, and discipline on the part of
those engaged in them. The remedy then is in
the means which will disseminate morality and
intelligence and induce correct habits of thought.
If to re-estabhsh hanging as state Institution
will advance the people in morality and intelli-
gence, and tend to soften their brutal passions,
then let us have hanging restored. If to observe
the fugitive law religiously and bend ourselves
TO all its brutal requirements with studied con-
science and answering fidelity will do any thing
for the cause of morals, let us debase ourselves
without delay.
For our part we do not see the correctives in
startled society from time to time in all ages, UNI
der all systems of laws, and will probably CONT
nue. to until human passions shall come fairly
under the control of human reason. They prevail
where capital punishment is in vogue and where
slavery is the law, and it is folly to look for re-
medy to such sources.
1t does not become reasonable and thinking
men to be alarmed for the ultimate efficacy Of
correct principles in consequence of these oat-
breaks, but palliating and guarding against them
as best we may, let us hold on to principles that
are correct, with an abiding confidence that they
win eventually overcome the evils suffered and
complained of.

THE END OF THE TRAGEDY.
De Bar murdered by the Mob.

From the Sentne,2 A. NJ.
We regret exceedingly that we are obi
ged TO lay before our readers the sickening
record of another mob murder. Debar is
dead by the hands of the infnriated people!
The following are the facts in general, Of
which We defer particulars till tomorrow:
On the opening of the court, the Grand Jury
was charged briefly but ably and with great
earnestness,b by Judge Larabee. They retired and
were absent about two hours, during which time
more than one attempt was made by the crowd
to break through the guard and seize the prison.
er. The Grand Jury brought in an indictment
for murder in the first degree. Debar, on being
arraigned, plead not gully (by advice of counsels
although he had confessed his crime).-
The Judge directed him to be remanded to Jail
to await his trial
. The Sheriff and assistants started with the
prisoner, surrounded by the military They had
scarcely got out ofthe door, when a rush was made
by the mob, drunk with rage The military gave
way at once, the officers were overpowered, and
DeBar struck senseless by blow on the head
from stoned The maddened mob beat his sense
less body with clubs, jumped on him, tied rope
to his heels, dragged him thus amidst yelling
like that OF very demons through the streets, and
hing him by the heels to tree about half mile
distant where the body yet hung at p. NJ.
svhen our informant left We will have no time
for contents upon this fearful tragedy.

tg- Kane, United States Judge for the Eas
tern District of Pennsylvania, has recently made
decision which excites the attention as we'll as
occasions the establishment of the country 1t is
this in effect: That bringing slaves into Penn
syivania do IS not make them free The scope
of this decision will be understood 1t is simply
making slavery thoroughly national institution
to be extended into the free states at the pleasure
of the shareholders. And this too, is an entirely
new step in slavery aggression, not only as mar
ked and distinct, but more important than
the repeal of the Missouri compromise, for this
repeats all slavery prohibitions for the whole
country. The doctrine heretofore recognized and
we'll established has been, that slavery is the crea-
turc alone of positive, municipal law and the
moment slave passes from under the law which
creates that condition, he ceases to be a slave.
This too is the common sense view of the case.
for Virginia has no more right to dictate that
man shall be slave in Pennsylvania because he
is in Virginia, than Pennsylvania has right to
dictate that horse shall be a voter in Virginia.
because he may be allowed to vote in Pennsvl
vania. The law of the world written and un-
written is that freedom is the normal cond:tio-
of the race, and slavery the exception occasioned
by the necessities of temporarily evil conditions
But this decision reverses all this 1t declares
slavery to be the natural condition and freedom
the exception. Hereafter freedom not slavery
is to be established by statute laws, and the north
and not the south, it appears, has got the "pecu-
liar y institution. Do we comprehend our dan
ger7 We fear there is not law national or state
enacting freedom. We believe there is something
about it in the declaration of independence, but
that IS understood to be mere rhetorical -four
lsh, and at present, under this decision we are
all slaves waiting only for some big ruffain to
take us by the collar. Something should be done
speedily. We must have our "free papers, with
out delay This is no exaggeration-it is the in
evitabe conclusion of Kane's decision, and if
that decision is to stand the freedom of the whole
people is yet to be wrought out
Judge Kane is to be thanked for thus stripping
the issue of all disguise. The President at Wash
lngton, openly and undisguisedly labors to re-
move all difficulties in the way of making Kan
sas slave state, while his Judge proclaims the
law of slavery to be the law of God and the land.
Can the people-can voters be longer blind to
their position and duty The future liberties of
the people of this nation depend upon their &C
ton during the next two years.

Our Hunker brethren, with nice sense Of the
fitness of things, met at the house of the county
Coroner, in county convention, on Monday last
The purpose of the melancholy gathering was to
galvanize life enough into the dead body Of Hun
kerism to enable it to go through the necessary
motions to get up state ticket to be knocked
fiat at this falls election. To do it, delegates to
the State Convention at Madison were appoint
ed as follows:
From the Eastern Assembly District-W. S.
Strong and C. Muntzenberger.
From the Western-J. C. M'Kisson, Dudley
Cass.
On the fundamental principles of hunkerism
to wit: Barstow or no Barstow, this delegation,
we think, is little mixed. The delegates from
this city, the Governor can rely upon-one being
attached to him by hooks of steal-of school lands
and the other by the equally potent influence of
lager beer. From the western district, one of
the delegates year ago was a bitter opponent
of the Governor, but as he has turned since then
acomplete summersett on general principles, and
two or three of them since our acquaintance with
him, we can't pretend now to answer for him.
OF the other we know nothing. On the whole
it looks as if Barstow might be trihe ahead in
the delegation from this county.
But the delegation as understand it, was
got up less with reference to the Office of Cover
nor than that of Secretary of State. Our Post
Master it is understood is a candidate for this
latter office, to further which interest the delega-
ton we are told is united. 1t is likely to car
ry this point they will be prepared to sell out on
Governor to the highest bidder, of which Guber-
material candidates would do well to make a note.
1t pains us to say it, but truth requires it, that
the harmony we read of as prevailing elsewhere
among our bunker brethren, does not prevail
here. The Know Nothing element and various
other elements, have got mixed up with them
and contortions, grumbling, and once in while
considerable swearing, is the result. Things are
not working well with them, and the prospect is
not favorable for change for the better.
