alton, beneficial to their mental powers
Persons wishing to join the Club have to

NATURE.
,er, Aug. 4tb, 1858.

Mr.. EDIToR:-On reading the Herald
this morning my attention was attracted
by an article under the head of "a peep
into Badgerdom," which [ had read over
and over again. Iassure you it made a
pleasing impression upon my mind, and
|"Mellie," its gentle writer, must excuse any
batteries may indulge in. But yester-
day | had strayed abroad with my dearest
friend through Natures green, and [
thought on reading "Melle," she had
learned all about my fambles and only
pretended to write from distant Bunker
Hill! As | look abroad upon the delicate
and numerous works of God, in thus sirew-
ing my path through life with flowers,
thought those the happiest moments of
my life. While robbing The prairie of its
rich beauty by plucking flowers on every
side, | was led to ask, "why do flowers
thus appear!" The trees appeared to
speak ami every prairie breeze to say Sod
makes all things WE'LL" Nv ardent love
for Nature makes this world to me rural
heaven, Paradise of delights. All things
reveal our transit through life, from shore
to shore. They tell me as they bloom
and fade that we too must pass away
these bodies, while brighter glory shall
appear. All things bloom, then fade and
die; so must we, and then shall there be a
union ofall that on earth was good and
beautiful, to live forever.

LAGER BEER PLENTY-AIAD DOGS.

Our Town is dull--that is a fact. Mer-
chants, farmers, all grumble at this, that,
the other,-neyertheless, good joke is as
well relished among us as anywhere else.
The consideration of more practical, seri-
Gus and business matters lis, however, more
general than joking Our new assessment
law coues in for its fall share of abuse; no
law ever enacted caused more swearing
perhaps no law ever required more hard
to kill it.
Last spring, our Board of Trustees re-
solved to grant no liquor licenses. Conse-
quently, spirituous liquors have been sold
Iii as small quantities as usual among us.
Lager Beer, which is not spiiituous nor
intoxicating, according to the oaths of six
ty dutchmen in New York, and which tes-
tinony Doesticks has since affirmed, is reg
nlarly consumed in large quantities. The
Board have just provided means by
which liquor can be had IL a lawful way
in Platteville. They appointed three ga
gents" last week to sell medicinal liquors
within the corporate limits; also, to sell
neechanical liquor too, | presume, for |
heard one Of the powder mill coopers in
curing Of one Of the agents for Irish whis-
key, saying he wanted it "to hoop powder
kegs"
The mad dog fever is renewed; several
days ago, some OF the boys noticed small
dog acting strangely. He was pursued but
safely ran the gauntlets of shot guns, pls-
tolls, sticks and stones showered from a
dozen hands. He was finally killed after
having been seen to bite number of 9th
err dogs and several head OF cattle aud
swine. The Board have since revived the
dog law, which, if as rgidly enforced as
the hog law, will ensure the safety of eve
ry dog in Platteville with privileges of the
town for the next sixty days. A.

OPENING OF THE LANCASTER INSTITUTE
NEXT WEEK.

Tie new Institute edifce for a High
School in Lancaster is completed and will
be ready for opening on Wednesday next,
being the 18th of August. A part of the
movable furniture-tables, bell, chairs,
window blinds and a few other fixtures
most of them rather ornamental than use
full, are yet to supply; but all these are
either ordered or will be furnished very
soon, as the purpose is to never tire till
every necessary article required for first
rate school is supplied. The upper and
lower rooms, including the apartment for
recitations, are amply furnished with
black boards, seats and desks--the latter
patterned after the most approved order of
school room furniture. Seats and desks
are provided for over 100 students, leaving
room for more if wanted The ceilings are
high, rooms large, well lighted and veutil-
lated. The building is arranged and fur
nished according to the best designs Of ex
pericnced school room architects, so that no
defects exist, requiring future corrections
The Principal, Mr.. S. PAGE, has just re-
turned from the East with a supply of APP
paratus, including Outline Maps Charts,
&C.; also, Planetarium for Illustrating
the motions of planets, and other instru
meuts to aid in giving oral instruction in
Astronomy; Geographical Onery, Globes
revolving and hemisphere, for Geogra
ply; blocks, diagrams and various geomet-
rical figures for beginners in Mathematics,
besides numerous other articles approved
ard in use among the foremost schools in
New England for the several branches of
primary learning.
The land, building and furniture of Ian
easter Institute have all been furnished at
the expense Of a few individuals who are
deeply interested in educating their own
children near home, considering ii cheap
er and better to build and support school
in Lancaster than to send them abroad to
distant schools. The proprieters thus be-
come personally interested in he success,
welfare and credit OF school, scholars and
Teachers. The Institute is free to all, in
village aud country-tnition and board
being the only expense; not only so, but
9 holars are solicited of those who are
friendly or not friendly to the school, and
from village and country, males and fe-

thy, there will be watehtul care, as well

Wisconsin Her stay Law"

To the editors of the New York Tribune:
Sir:-Our newsStay Law, $50 called),
about which the Eastern Press is making
such fuss stand some of our own editors too,
who 90 not understand its provlsons),ls
simply an act restoring the practice in
foreclosure suits to The condition it WAS in
before the recent enactment of the ssCode
10 our State. This "Code" contained a
most unrighteous provision, by which a
mortgage could be forecosed, and man
sold out of his house and home lrredeem
able in SIX weeks from the maturity Of
the mortgage Ia system OF "bu,chery,"
which was reished by none but "sharpers'
and s.six- percent. -a-month men, every
fair and honest man acknowledging II to
be an outrage upon society.
The present act gives one year to fore
close a mortgage and bar forever mortga-
cor sequity of redemption, and is tar less
liberal to the debtor than the statutes OF
most of the Eastern States, in which three
years are required for the same purpose
Meantime, pending the action OF fore
closure. both before and after judgement,
the same rate Of interest Is allowed as
that provided in the original contract,
which may be as high as twelve per cent.
The great hue and cry that ''oad faith to
creditors has been "enacted into law" here
is sheer humbug, as it relates to the fore
ci,,,ure act, or any other statute for the
collection of debts in Wisconsin. Our
capitalists, who are honest, find no fault
with the law, nor do any Of our citizens,
except numerous class OF ''slx-per-cent-
a. month usurers, whose presence and sharp
practice is curse 10 the State. The
late law is indeed an courage upon their
0Jewisb propensites, and i, is hence that
they alone have raised the clamor, which,
on inspection of the law, now just pub,
|lished will be heard no more we trust.
There can be no better field for the
safe and profitable investment Of capital
than Wisconsin. The writer has had the
management for several years of consider
able Eastern capital, for purposes of loan
iac and investment, and finds no faux
with the securities he has taken. the
promplness with which the payments are
made, nor with The facilities which the
law affords him for the enforcing payment
when that becomes necessary, and those
for whom he is acting are equally salts
fled.
You may tell your Eastern friends, then
that the collection laws OF Wisconsin are
as good or better than their o D, and all
that any honest creditor could desire.
