EDUCATION IN WISCONSIN,
Chicago Republican has an elaborate ar
ticle upon the educational system of Wis
consin. 1t says:
IN gencrol we NAV say with truth the
pubic schools Of Wisconsin are prospe-
rous in high degree; taxes are literally
voted, good class of buildings is found,
and better class is being erected and
well furnished with all the paraphernalia
necessary in schools of the grade; an in
creased and continually increasing de-
mand for better qualified teachers; great
interest is taken in education by the
people; associations for the mutual i'm
proyemeut Of teachers are springing up;
the best method of teaching and disci-
pline are sought after; tho great princi-
pie that common schools are the only
sure support of free government is gen
orally acknowledged the press and PEG
pie are convinced of their utility, ard they
now demand that the system be improved
harmonized aud fully developed until it
meets the demand of the ago.
There are IL academies in this state,
having 90 teachers and 1900 students;
9 colleges, having So professors and L.
439 students; also, 22s private schools
having 5000 pupils.
In the number of nominal schools for
training teachers, Wisconsin takes the
lead of all the states in the Union, six
having been projectsd-one in each Con-
grsssional districtin the state. The state
has magnificent fund, amounting in
money and lands 100000 of former
now aysilabIe) to about $1,000 .ooo.-
With this fund the state should take the
lead, not only in the number of these
schools, but in excellence"

several Seriously injured |,

On Sunday last there was murder
GUS row at Bailey's old place, near Sleep
er's mill, in the town of Hartland, in
this county.
The facts, as we gather them from
several sources, are substantially as fol.
lows:
A party of six Irishmen, Peter Shan
non, Pat. Stafford, Jas. Murphy, Peter
Mshon, and two others, were hauling
hay, and had liquor with them, and
drank until they became intoxicated and
quarrelsome.
On their way home, they stopped at a
saloon, at the place named above. Dick
E lwards and the two Rimy brothers
were at the saloon. Shannon's party
here got up row because one OF the
men in the saloon, who was a fiddler,
would not play particular tune, which
some of them wished to hear, and angry
words were passed between the parties.
Soon after, dog belonging to Pat.
Stafford, began to fight with dog be
longing to the house, and one Of the Ri
my's undertook to part them.
This was the signal for fight between
the men, in which Shannons party we're
terribly whipped. Shannon was killed,
bis skull being broken in and au arm
twice broken. JAS. Murphy was shot in
the groin, and severely wounded. Pat
Stafford and Peter Mahon were each
badly bruised. The three men at the
saloon were not badly hurt. We are in.
formed that the attacking party were
mainly the same persons who were en-
gagged in the fight at Ellsworth two years
ago. Mr.. Shannon leaves wife aud
six children, and property enough to
keep them from want.
This unfortunate affair is another OF
the results of whiskey drinking. Where
the responsibility secondariIy rests will
be determined by judicial investigation.
