the deduction in each case may amount to.

Accident In.ur nce--A singular Case.

s-Insurance against casualtyis like no other form
of insurance, in that it can be reinforced by no
caution Of the insured. A man may exercise ex-
ira guardianship of his property but of his life
and person none. And this constitutes the chief
argument in favor of this and rapidly ex-
tending branch of insurance. recent most ein-
gular case at PEORIA comes 80 strkingly in point
that 1t is worth narration, indeed it is as
item OF news. A resident that place, Mr.. Peter
Fisher, few days ago came to painful and sim
gular death, from cause that baff1ed all rome
dies. A post norton examination revealed the
fact that deceased, while on picnic, was fatally
bitten in the back of the neck by poisonous in
sect. Six months ago Mr. Fisher insured in the
Travellers Insurance Company, of Hartford un-
der general accident policy which covers ''poi-
sonous wounds" Without waiting the authori-
zed period of 60 days, the agents of the Company
have paid $1,000 to the afflicted widow of deoeas-
ed. Thus small outlay providently stored in
sure place has in the hour of need and trial come
in with substantial aid. 1t is to the credit of the
Company, the pioneer institution OF its class in
this country, that lis promptness in this instance
is noted.
We clip the above fr ON the Chicago Tribune,
but we have case in point, nearer home.

An Effort Wanted.-The amou

An Effort Wanted.-The amount of the
Normal School Fund Income, under the control
of the State Normal Board, is not less than $780,
600, SO we are informed. This will permit of the
establishment of three State Normal Institutions
on the plan proposed by the Normal BOARD, in
their circular. A meeting of this Board will be
held i'll Madison the first week in September, to
consider the bids which may then be ON hand,
and to determine the question of location. No
bid covering, in money or it's equivalent, less
sum than $40 600 will be considered, There
will of course be quite strife for the locations.
Milwaukee, GAINESVILLE, Whitewater, Racine,
Fond du Lac, Geneva, &c, are to be in the field
with liberal proposals. We trust Kenosna will
also be on hand, for certainly, in view of the Pc
cuniary, moral, social and literary advantages
that must result to any point fotunate enough to
secure the prize, our citizens can afford tc
make liberal bid. 1t is matter that should
be attended to at once. There is no time to de-
lay. Whatever is done must be done quickly.
We hope somebody who has the leisure, or il
able TO make it, will take the matter in hand
and see what can be done.

Protection VS. Free Trade.-Don't fail to
read the continuation of Capt. Wards article on
our fourth page. His argument against the
Free Trade theory cannot be successfully an
swered. AS Free Trade is to be made promi,
nent plank in the democratic platform this fall
it's well for the people to post themselves al
to the arguments on both sides of the question
1t there is ever to be time in the history Of
this country when all it's resources should be de-
veloped TO their fullest extent, that time has
arrived. With public debt of three thousand
millions of dollars, that must be paid to the last
dollar, principal and interest, it seems to us
that we heed something fine spun theo-
ries of Free Trade and direct taxation, to aid
US in meeting our enormous national obliga
tions. The capabilities of the country and oui
people can never be fully developed until every
branch of industry is open. We shall never be
able to pay off our debt by raising wheat ant
corn to send to European market--not if we
all lived to be as old as Methuselab.

tlal ticket with Mr.. Lincoln, and be-
cause Mr.. johnson retains the sane
Cabinet Ministers, with one exception
and he is only non est because of an
arrangement made by Mr.. Lincoln
This cogent argument is worthy of re-
f'ctl"n; let every one read it:
And sfter succeeding to the chair
made vacant by the foul act of the as
sassln, was not his first act notice to
the C'binst officials of his predecessor
that he desired Q continuance of their
services? Andhave they not continued
each with his accustomed portfolio,
with solitary exception, and that
change was made IN pursuance of Oh
arrangement made by his predecessor"
According to this sapient minister
the foregoing are the Sniy reasons why
the nasses should support his Chief.
Suppose now, just for argument sake,
MIR. johnson should displace this as
tute reasoner, then he would of course
say friends, you must array yourselves
against him, he has forfeited all claim
to our support Nov, if the Chief
Magistrate is dependent upon this san
dy work for respect and support, he
certainly is deserving of commiseration.
Mr.. II seems to be impressed with the
idea that the Cabinet is President,

mere respect for Mr.. Lincoln. But
the masses know that Andrew johnson
