&N 1t affords us m uch pleasure to be ablf

~ 1t affords US much pleasure to be able
to state that Messrs. Henry Ely and Edward
u. Evans intend opening Select School in
this place as soon as they have obtained a
sufficient number of pupils to justify them in
so doing 1t is unnecessary for US to say
anything in their praise. They are both
professional teachers, and devote all their
time and attention to the delightful task of
teaching the young idea how to shoot. -
They merit patronage. We have prepared
and will publish next week an article giving
an account of the examination at the Union
School this week. We have not room for its
publication in the present number of our
paper.

A Close PRIsoSER.-A curious cir
cumstance occurred near Amboy,
Washington County, last fall. A Mr..
Wilson was threshing grain, and by
some oversight large stack Of straw
was piled upon hog, which at that
time weighed near 300 pounds. Hav-
ing occasion to remove the stack two
months afterwards, the porker was
found still alive, though reduced to q
perfect skeleton. He had eaten about
one yard square of his rather close
prison house, Sixty days with no food

rather singular instance of endur-
ance.- Sigourney Dem.

,e safe to predict that it will be pru

Instead of matters assuming more

Iron the Milwaukee Nsws

Six years ago, young man just en-
tering life, under the influence Of rum
committed crime against society, was
tried in this city, convicted and sent
to Waupun, where he served out his
time behind the prison bars. Before
his trial, fair young girl had .prom,s-
ed to hitch fortunes with him, but
cruel was the blow to her. But she
loved him. All through the long six
years did she wait for the day Of bis
release. With true woman's heart
she believed him nnocent-innocen
at least before God, and like the mag.
net, she held on her steady way, her
heart pointing over to the future
Long we're the years to him. Slowly
passed the hours. Seconds we're min
utcs, minutes hours, hours days, days
weeks, weeks months, months years,
and years were like ages. Every toll
ing of the prison bell struck to his
heart and every sunset took another
thread from his skein. Nor were
the hours less weary to her. Hope.
that blessed angel sat leside her by
day, and reposed upon her pillow at
night. Some laughed at her holy love
who sneered SO meanly at her lover,
prisoner, miles away. Others might
laugh-she wept. Others might point
to man in prison garb, toiling away
from morn tall night, but with one star
to guide him on. She saw but the
honest soul that might be saved-or
lost and woman that she was. nerved
herself to bear their gibcs and jeers.
Blessed words came to him in his
lonely cell-words OF love-of hope
of kindness-stronger grew the heart
OF HIM who had truly his better angel
watching over his unbroken future
Each word from her lightened the
hours as they slowly went by, and lar
ger grew the day on which liberty was
to come. Men visited him, and with
careless word or speaking eye, threw
into his cell maddening thought on
which his soul must fee and trem5-
lingly sink to the darkest corner of its
living temple. Then..a letter from her
would dash away the dark curtains,
and beckon him on to spot Of sun
shine outside and beyond his present
reach. So passed the years. Friends
died and he wept over them. The sin
