SALT THAI WOULD BE ATTIo.-Beauty is
everywhere, you can't escape her. She travels
with light aud sunbeams, and renders pretty
every nook aud corner of this sphere of ours.
BY the wayslde of decay she rests her airy feet
awhile to dispel the shadow of death by her
smile. Ruined cities OF the mighty past are ivy
twned by her fairy fingers, the lghtningrveu
tree is clothed by her in soft greenness, the
wreck at the bottom Of the great deep is
spangled by her with brilliant parti-colored
shells. She plants scented flower upon the
very peak ofa bleak mountain, and softens the
drear aspect OF deserts by oasis spots. Shes q
winsome maiden, and kind one. Why, but
yesterday we passed, upon an open lot, the
body of defunct "tabby" (some ancient spin
steI's pet that yielded up the ghost before the
clubs of naughty boys), and right from under
the throat where the new once dwelt, a little
white and blue wild flower was just peepiug
above the ground. Tabby hadn't visible friends
to deck her bones with roses, but Invisible
Beauty took their place. The vertebral column
of dead Tabby's back almost seemed to curve in
gratitude at the favor. Wasn't 1t nicely done?
The American Pharmaceutical Association
is holding triple sessions daily on Tenth street.
All their talk is oily. They discuss the uses and
prices of castor oil, sweet oil, petroleum oil,
olive oil, linseed oil, neatsfoot oil, lard oil, and
every other kind of oil.
Protective associations are all the rage
Even our hard-shelled oysermen have formed
one. As they adopt red tape and rules of order
they must, OF course make show, and conse-
quently have rented pier on the river front.
That's all right, though.
The man who got off Joke said it was no
easy place on which to locate. One of the
points gave him much discomfort, besides
marking his breeches with an ugly mud-stroke,
caused by the uplifting of another fellows foot.
When is lawyer useless? When he is
practising at the wrong bar. None OF
Philadelphas legal lights, however, do that
sort of thing, though Brown does smile incredu-
lously at the ayerment.

ing to RAISE money on the same. AS the building
goes up the pocket goes down.
The Baltimore gasdtters kindly request that
those of the same fraternity in this place should
not go there to work, as they are striking. We
guess our men won't go.

sM-AN old Dutch farmer, just ar
rived at the dignit y of justice of the
peace, had his first marriage case
He dished it up in this way, He said
to the man:
B "Vell. you wants to be marrit, do
You? 'Yell You loves dis woman
so goot as any woman you ever see"
"Yes, answered the man.
Then TO the woman.
"Vell, do you love dis man so bet
ter as no man you ever see?n
The Lady hesitsted, and he repeat
ed.
well, veil, do you ike him so veil
az to be his wife ?
''Oh certainly" she answered, with
a kind of litter.
SWELL, dat is all any reasonable
man expect. So you are msrrit, |
pronounce You wife and man"
The man asked the justice what was
to pay.
''Ah, noting at ali--noting at ALL
you bees welcome to it, if It will do
you any goot."

Let the Boy fight, Madam.

We are not mother ourselves, but
we know whereof we speak. Never
tell your little boy "not to fight"
Now do not stare at the paper in
such establishment and horror dear
madam--we do not suppose you train
up your curly-headed frst-born to
be prize.fighter, nor do we advise
you not to inculoate peaceful notions
in the boys head or not to encourage
an animicable disposition. We sim
ply ask you not to issue the command
in general terms, without qualification
mot to fight"
We would remind you, in the first
place, madam, that such o command
is certain to lead the conscientious
boy into double the number of fights
which belongs, by the natural law Of
of masculine childhood, to any one
boy. A conscientious child, for in
stance, goes among his fellows with
a firm determination to obey his
mother. He accordingly bears the
impositions which are continually
occurring among boys; his school
mates soon learns that he does this
and take advantage of the fact, at,
tributing it usually, to cowardice.-
Human nature is not adamant, madam
even in your model boy. He endures
as much as he can for your sake and
then resorts to his fists. Now if
from the first he had stood manfully
up to his rights, as nothing but full
permission to defend them would e2 :
able him to do, he would have escap>
ed the imposition and consequently
the contest.
For boy to defend his rights, and
what he considers his honor, is both
natural and praisoworthy. 1t is
a wrong for a mother to compel him
to do 80 with the feeling that hs is
mourning parental displeasure. 1t
unnerves him, ifhe have a conscience
and intends to do what is right. He
feels an unavoidable necessity of do,
ing wrong.
Nothing is more common in the
management of children than for pa
rents to tell them mot to fight. -
Nothing can be more absurd. "But,
says the mother, The will be sure
enough to fight as much as is neces-
t y, whatever / tell him" Very
true, and if you make it a crime for
him to protect his rights, he will in
the end fight more than 10 necessary
Tell him honestly just what you
mean. Tell him to fight like tiger
if The choice is between fighting and
running away. Tell him to protect
his childish honor and bis rights, as
as you would have him protect his
manhood. You may then cultivate
habits Of peacefulness, and to avoid
such companions as delight in fight
ing and bullying for their own sake
Advise your boy in this way, madam,
and our word for it, You will have a
peaceful, manly, independent child.

Tuesday the 22d day of June, 1868
will bring together, in convention at
Milwaukee, the editors and publish
ers of Wisconsin and Minnesota. The
beneficial results of the annual meet
ings and excursions of the press are
manifold. The recollections of the de-
lightful reunion of the editorial fra
ternity of these two north western
States, at St. Paul aud Minneapolis,
in June, 1867, justify high expecta>
tions OF pleasant meeting in the
commercial metropolis of Wisconsin
The annual address will DO delivered

WATERFOWL Democrat. The poem {
will be delivered by Hon. A. M.
Thompson, editor of the GAINESVILLE
Gazette.
The arrangements for the twelfth
anniversary Of the Wisconsin Edi-e
tors and Publishers Association,
which is the senior press association
of the United States, are such as will
combine the greatest amount of good
and pleasure TO all who may partici-
pate in the deliberations and festivi-
ties of the week. In the choice of
proffered courtesies from various
sources it is deemed advisable to inn
prove an opportunity, that has been
kindly rendered, to become more in
timately acquainted with the great
commercial, manufacturing, agriculs
tural an industrial interests and re,
sources of the northwestern States,
in whose behalf we labor, by visit
to the three prominent cities of Mil

terchange of views, by the represent

s~Is the recent debate in the
British Parliament on the Irish
church establishment, Mr. BRIGaT
said that six hundred thousand Prot
estantsin ireland had two Irish Arch
bishops and twelve Bishops, with an
income of twelve millions. In a
large part of the province, the num-
Der OF persons belonging to the es-
tablished church hardly sufices to
keep up the forms Of service. Yet
tho property of all is taxed for it's
support.
The same arguments used against
the Irish church establishment apply
to The Presbyterian establishment in
Scotland, and to the Episcopal church
In England. The whole system of a
union OF church and state is likely,
at 40 distant day, to disappear
throughout the British realm. The
case Of Ireland differs only in degree
from that of England and Scotland

editor is a very able man, and almost
a patriot. The noxious air of tho

proceeded to ordain one Of the cler--

be sent to America with two newly
ordained preachers. Wesley was
convinced that the right to confer
ordination, though conceded by Gus.
tom to the Bishops, really belonged
to all ordained clergymen. He was
extremely averse to depart from
ecclesiastical custom, and only did
SO under the plainest demand of i'm

Episcopal ordination of the clergy of
Methodism. A second General Com

DIR. Willard Parker, well known de
the medical profession in this coun--
Try, gave, in a recent lecture. very
decided testimony against the use of
tobacco. He said the use Of the weed
is particularly injurious to men
OF sedentary habits and indoor life.
Such should never smoke. The odor
infects their clothing, study, and
books so that they live and breath
in a noxious atmosphere of tobacco.
Those who spend most of their time
in the open air are not in such con-
slant peril. The poison is slow but
in the second or the third decade
It's virus becomes manifest. The
words OF the wise man, because sen.
tence against An evil work is not ex.
ecuted speedily, therefore the heart
OF the sons Of men is fully set in them
to do evil" are strikingIy applicable
to those who indulge this pernicious
habit. Tho speaker had, for years,
been himself "a smoker, and urged up
on his auditory to give up the use of
tobacco. He said that in all his pro
feesional practice no had never known

and healthy. TO all out ward ap-
pearanee they seemed strong but let

power was greatly enfecbled. The

TROUBLE AT BEEF SLouaH.4Wep
see by the papers from the north
western part of the State that there
is danger of trouble about the Beef
Slough Boom. The Chippewa Times
reports much excitement at the Falls 2
and at Eau Claire. The Beef slough
company demanded its logs at one of
the upper booms, and finally about
a million logs were turned loose for
their benefit.
