LINCOLN AND DOUGLAS DEBATES.
Our advertising columns this morning will
Inform our readers that the joint debates be-
tween Lincoln and Douglas in 1855, have been
published in Ohio as campaign document,
and that the volume containing them is for
sale 1T yery low rate.
We need not SAT- word to prove that Mr..
Lincoln's friends in tho Northwest ought to
give this volume wide circulation. It con
tains perhaps, the most iorcible statement oi
Mr.: Douglas political opinions, and a COM
plete aud triumphant exposition Of their dan
ger and unsoundness. 1t sets forth with great
clearuees tue fundamental doctrines Of the Re-
publican party, and has the proof, in Mr. Doug
las itnpoteut assaults upon them: Of their nc
ccssity and beaeiccnce-
II is no mean compliment to Mr. Lincoln
that the Republicans Of Ohio have reproduced
these debates in their present form. Lis
friends III Illinois will be grateful FOR this mark
Of the estimation in which Old Ale is held By
his co-workers Of another Stale
# our State Central Committee will allow
us VIC will suggest that proposition be made
to the Democratic Committee to order jointly q
larye edition Of the debates for circulation in

efficacy Of the Douglas dog1nas, they will not

Our attentive correspondent at Madison
sends us tue bill. by virtue Of which. if it be-
comes law, all laws for the collection Of debts
or tue enforcement Of contract ID Wisconsin,
are repealed. The bill was ordered to third
reading in .l4c Assembly, in the precise shape
in which we print it below; it was then sen.
10 select committee to be perfected:
4 BiN for an act relating to Executions on Final
Judgment
The People of the State Of Wisconsin repre-
scented in Senate aud Assembly do enact US
follows:

ment of tue Court.

We are not clear that tho path in State legls

In the midst Of much opposition frou, various
sources, our school continues 10 flourish. and is,
we trust, accomplishing IN some measure that
for which 1t was instituted. Many of the chill
dren hare left US for other schools. or TO wander
in idleness and rice about our streets; Jet we
feel assured that the lessons Of morality, econ.
omy and Industry they have been taught, will
eventually lead many Of them in the path Of
virtue and religion. We have evidence Of facts
that show that not only many Of our children
reform themselves, but are the means OF doing
good to their parents and to the neighbo1hOod
IN which they live.
Our Temperance Society continues TO exert q
good influence. Two Of our boys were the
means of getting their intemperate fathers to
sign the pledge, and that efectually. Another
| went to visit his wreiched mother in Bridcwetl,
aud there pleaded until she was compelled to
make a row, upon her knees, that she would
| forescz abandon liquor The same boy was
sent by his father TO purchase some whisky, but
he would not 60. The father insisted and he
produced his temperance card, aud said,
'.Father, will die first"
Three Of our boys started prayer meeting.
| They invited the neghbor's children and read q
chapter from the Bible, and sung the hymns
they had learned ut school.
We might give other striking incidents, but
enough is sud to encourage US in industrial
school efforts to benefit the class Of society
| among whom cur labors are spent. The Sab.
bath School is Us large as the house will permit
Mr. E. 5. Ws1ner is still Superintendent. We
