VTHIS Institution, permanently located at the Capt.
tai of Wisconsin, has been established for the pur
pose of qualifying young and middle aged men for the
practical duties of life.
The impression which has for long time prevailed
that in tie large cities only to be found good Bust
ness Colleges is erroneous We have at great expense
secured and furnished the most suit of
occupied for this purpose in the West, and de-
termined present better at smaller cost to
the student, than be found elsewhere. Young men
should at least pay visit to this College before decid
ing to attend any other.
Observe the advantages Of attending this College:
A student qualities himself in few months either
for honorable and lucrative employment or to conduct
his own business systematically.
Board, tuition and books will cost him from $50 to
500 less in Madison than in the large cities.
He avoids the amusements and vices of large city,
thereby saving from $50 to $75 more and what is Of
far greater value, preserving the purity Of his moral
character.
He obtains better accommodations much nearer the
college.
He gets as good instruction at smaller cost for
scholarship and books and receives much attcn-
ton both in and out of the college.

STRONG Strength of char,
acter consists of two things-power of will
and power of self,restraint. 1t requires two
things, therefore, for its existence-strong Q
feelings and strong command over them
Now, it is here we make the great mistake !:
we mistake strong feelings for strong charac.
ter. A man who beats all before him, be.
fore whose frown dOmestes tremble, and
whose bursts of fury make children of the
household quake-because he has his will
Obeyed, and his own way in all things we call
him strong man. The truth is, be is the
weak man; it is his passions that are strong;
he, mastered by them, is weak You must
measure the strength of man by the power
of the feelings be subdues, not by the power
Of those which subdue him. And hence
composure is very often the highest result of
strength. Did we never see man receive
fragrant insult, and only grow little pale,
and then reply quietly? That is a man
spiritually strong Or did we never see man
in anguish stand as if carved of solid rock,
mastering himself? Or bearing a hopeless
daily trial, remain silent, and never tell the
world what cankered his home peace That
is strength. He, who with strong possions
remains chaste he who keenly sensitive, with
many powers of indignation in him, can be
provoked, and yet restrain himself, and for>
give-these are the strong men, the spiritual
heroes.-ReU. f. W Robertson.

LIttls Things ID The Garden.

In. planting the family garden, all the stan-
dard vegetables will suggest themselves as
things necessary to be provided for; but very
much of the comfort afforded by the garden
consists of the Numerous little Injuries it
affords = things which in themselves can
hardly be considered as food, but which add
to the attraction of the table, by rendering
other food more palatable. Those who are
fond of pickles will in time provide for cu>
cumbers, martynias, peppers, green musk
melons, refugee beans, and all those things
which are used for picking, not forgetting
the spicy nasturtium., Parsely is valued by
most people as a Aavoring herb, and it is
very handy to dress dish Of cold meat, The
seeds are very slow in germinsting, and as a
consequence should be soWed early. Major
am, savery and thyme are the popular favor
ings for soups and stufipgs, and when cut in
flower and carefully dried, and then rubbed
up and put into an air rtight-box or bottle,
may be had in greater perfection than any
that can be bought at the stores The first
two are ANNALS Sow the seeds in drills
foot apart, and thjn or transplant to 6 inches
in the rows. Thyme IS small, shru6by per.
ennial, which may be raised from seed, or
prOpagated by dividing old plants, There
are very few who know what an excellent
favor a pinch Of spearmint gives to soup, or
it would be more generally grown. In the
older parts the country it isfound natural
lied in wet places; but it will do perfectly
well in the garden, and then we always know
where to find it, as once established, it will
remain for years. Sage is always in demand
in the family for culinary or medical uses,
and can be had in the garden with but little
trouble. Seeds soWn this spring will. have a
fair cutting by autumn 1t is very readily
raised from cuttings of old plants. Slip off
the young shoots which start this spring
from near the base of the plant, and set them
in sandy soil, and put over them aframe Gov
cred with common muslin they will thus
be kept moist and shady, and will strike
root readily. --.5 - l-..- .t.i .

A CURE FOR BAD TRANMER. "A school
master, after giving. one of his scholars a
sound drubbing for speaking bad grammer,
sent him to Che other end Of the room to in,
form another boy that he wished to speak to
him, at the same time, promising to repeat
the dose it he spoke to him ungrammatieally.
The youngster, quite satisfied with what he
had got, determined to be exact, and thus he
addressed his fellow-pupil: "There is conl>
mon substantive, Of the masculine gender,
singular number, nOminative case, and in a
angry mood, that sits perched upon the em,
lnenee at the other side Of the room wishes to
artlculate few sentences to you in the pres

A BAvARIAN Israelite, writing to the Is.
raelite Indeed, has a statement on the pro
cess Of the restoration of the Jews to Pales-
tine, which is worthy Of note. He says:
" The gathering of the Jews is now begins
ming to take place. Not only many single
families imungrate to Palestine, but there
have been formed a number of societies in
almost every land on this continent, to pre-.
pare an immigration on a large scale, proyi.
ded with all possible means, money, implies
ments and tools, Of every .kind, ITO commence
the cultivation of a long desolated land, at
once, and with the utmost vigor. There are
men Of considerable wealth, among them, and
not one without some means, enough at least
to defray the expenses oefhe Journey; and to
purchase a lot Of ground I am happy to
state that anl one of the leading members
of society forming here in Bavaria, which
numbers already over nine hundred heads Of
families, besides a number of young people
who would not form an allegiance with the
other sex until settled in the Holy Land, upon
the soil of their rightful heritage" He adds:
"The Gentiles hereabouts-that is the petty
German Protestant Kingdoms and principai-
ities-are even more astir about Palestine
than the Jews"

SCENE IN THE SENATE. - Jim Lane, of
Kansas, about whose position there was some
doubt, recently stood up in his place in the
Senate, and boldly proclaimed his intention
to sustain the Presidents policy. This dec
laration called forth all the venom of that
leader of the mad radicals, Ben Wade, of
Ohio, who is thus reported.
Wade said in reply: Who is your Presi1
dent, that every man must bow to his opin-
ions! If you please, sir, We all know him.
He is no stranger to this body. We have
measured him, sir; we know his height, his
length, his breadth and capacity, all about
him; and you set him up as a paragon and
declare you are going to wear his collar. Is
that the idea, that you are going to be his
apologist and defender in whatever he may
propose? Three millions of people, sir, are
exposed to outrage and plunder from those
worse than savages, their former masters,
murdered, we are told, every day, their lives
taken away, their humanity trampled under
foot; and when Congress, under the Cousti-
tuition of the United States, is endeavoring
to tender them some protection, how are we
met? Sir every attempt OF your Moses has
been to trample them down, make their con-
dition worse and throw every obstruction in
the way Of everything proposed by Congress
Lane in reply said, ! wear collar in
dieted for treason by prO-slavery grand
jury, hunted from State to State by a writ
found on that indictment, hundred thous,
and dollars for my head. Jim Lane wear
collar? Great God Mr.. President, where
ever he is known that charge is denied as
false by both friend and enemy.
Wade, " l wish it was"
Lane appealed to Wade to withdraw the
serious charges he had against the President.
He (Lane) would not defend the Presidents
speech of the 22d of February, as it was
made under excitement. Doolittle, of Wis
consin, said he had striven to prevent col
lision between Congress and the Executive,
and was sorry to see such a disposition
among some of his friends towards the Exc
cutive, as though he was unworthy of their
confidence. The Bill contains proposition,
upons which the men in whom we had un.
doubted confidence, differ,
