First in Peace.

"Let us have peace" are the closing
words of General Grants letter of accept
ance. He who was one of the first t
take up the sword and who welded it Will
the greatest success, now calls for peace
Yes, peace is what we all want, north OF
south, east or west. We all echo the
words Of our beloved standard bearer "Let
us have peace" The north has had enough
war, and God knows the, south has, and
the only question now is what course, what
policy, and what men will ensure the per-
manent peace of this war cursed people.
The election of General Grant will establish
permanent, lasting and honorable peace,
not only in name, but in sentiment, in feel
ing and in action. A coward can no more
make peace than he can prosecute war.
The one is the work of hero as much as
the other, and in Gen. Grant we have one
who can do both, and ere the term of our
next President has expired, the American
people will say of him as they did of Wash
ington, "First IN war, first in peace, and
first in the hearts of his countrymen."

like all societies, it has its evil doors, con-

by returning to our charge the Rev. Jas.

Teachers Association.

The following letter has been received
fby our County Superintendent, and is
published for the benefit of teachers, and
others interested:
MILWAUKEE, June 1st, 1868.
| SAMUEL PARKS, ESQ, Co. Sup't.
Dear Sir: The annual meeting of the
Wisconsin State Teachers Association,
will be held in this city from the 22d to
the 25th of July. 1t has been the custom
to entertain the ladies attending the meet
ing of the Association free of expense, and
| it is the desire of the teachers of this city
to continue the time honored custom. In
large city like Milwaukee, the teachers
have buta limited acquaintance with the
parents of their pupils, and 1t is difficult
matter to obtain sufficient number OF
places. We desire to know how many
teachers intend to be present from your
district We ask therefore, that you will
be kind enough to give general notice
throughout your district, that all who in
tend to attend the meeting of the associ-
alton are requested to send their names
and residences to you, so that you can
forward the list before the 10th of july
We will provide for all ladies whose names
are received from a county or city Super
intendent on or before July 10th 1868.
The trains arriving on Tuesday and Wed!
nesday will be met by one of the ,princi
pals of our public schools, who will assign
places to the teachers so that they can
take the omnibus at the depot, and go di-
rectly to the place assigned, and thus
avoid the trouble and annoyance Of being
obliged to go to some central point and
there wait an hour or two before having a
place provided. 1t would greatly assist us
if the teachers would mention the names
of such acquaintance as they may have in.
the city. BY SO doing, we will frequently
be able to assign places so that they can
be with friends, rather than with entire.
strangers, and thus make the visit more
agreeable to the teachers. Hoping that
you will assist Us in this matter, and that
the association meeting may bepleasant to
all, we remain yours truly,

BG@Since the nominations, the political
world rests easy. Republicans are conf.
dent, the Democrats are in a dsparaging
mood, at loss to find candidate suitable
to their peculiar views of the late unpeas
antness. They hold their grand pow-wow
on the 4th, at New York, and start Out
with numberless list of candidates. As
the best bully for the field, we offer Nor
rissey as one possessing the greater share
Of ill-gotten gains, and one that can afford
to shell out literally for the benighted
cause.
