Americana are fond of boasting Of
their free school system, bnt an off,
cial report from Gen. Andrews, our
Minister in Sweden, shows that
Scandinavian children attend school
far moro generally than those of the
United States. Folk or common
soils are established in Sweden by
gov lnment authority in each sochen
IA tract of from six to twelve miles
in extent. Writing, arithmetic, his
tory, geography, grammar, geome-
try, linear drawing, singing, horti-
culture, gymnastics, catechism and
biblical history, are taught Military
tactics are also taught TO boys. In
Sweden in 1868 there were 679, 1873
children between the ages of FIVE and
fifteen years. OF these 528, GAG at
tended the common schools, while
1851 were being educated 1T other
schools, also under government au.
thority, or taughtsat home. Thus
ninety-seven per cent. of all the
| children in the kingdom wore re-
| ceiving an education. In Norway
there must be school for every
neigh borhood where there are thirty
children. While thus providing for
the masses, the higher grade of the
schools and universities of Scandina
/ via are we'll supported by tho gov.
ernment, and largely attended.

The readers of the COURIER will
remember a short item we printed
recently about ono Quinn having
boon found dead near Iowa City, sup.
posed TO have been killed by his frol-
icsome comrades. The Iowa City
Republican states that on Saturday
asst Ian Irishman named Daniel
Quinn was found murdered on the
Dubuque road, near G. H. Horrick's
Just north Of the city. The first inn
preston was that he had been killed
by some men who were with him,
and they were arrested and held until
tho coroners inquest was passed upon
the case. Here it was shown that
Quinn had worked for a Mr.. Sullivan.
living some four miles north Of town,
about seven years. On Friday he
and . son of Sullivan camo to town
with load Of hay, and when they
had disposed Of their hay they went
to loading up at the saloons, and
must have run fearful round of
drinking. They finally started for
home very drunk. Quinn sitting on
the hind part of tho hay rack and
Sullivan driving, and another wagon
behind with inmates in . similar con-
dition. II wasagrecd, BY thejury and
we doubt not correctly, that he fell
off his wagon and was killed by the
team behind running on to him, and
the arrested men were discharged
But Quinn was murdered all the
same. Those who dealt to him the
fatal stuff that destroyed his ability
to caro- for himself have the blood of
poor Quinn upon their heads, and
will be held for it at the bar Of God,
and should be at that ofmen, as fully

Suicide.

: 4 Z L
WocIip from the Hdwkeye Of this
day, the startling intelligence Of the
death, BY his own hand, of Judge o.
g. Wightman, Of Burlingttn. Tho
deceased was we'll and favorably
Known By very many Of our citizens.
The cause which led to this terrible
end, the Hapkeye says, was that
dreadful neutrality-suspicious. which
had Of late years become his master.
We give the account Of the c,roum.
stances attending his death in the
language of that paper;
.'About ten o'clock Sunday morn
ing, the people were startled with
the report that Judge o. c. Wight.
man had committed suicide in his
Office. It seems that he left his res.
idence. on the corner OF Fifth AMI
Court streets, Saturday morning,
taking with him q basket, which he
left at the meat market of Mr.. Fish,
back, on Jefferson street. 1t is not
known at what time he closed his
Office, locking himself in, but it was
probably between ten and two o'clk
on Saturday, as q meeting of the
Agricultural Society was to have
been held at bis office at the latter
hour, and the door was found locked
at that time. An evening paper was
thrown under the door about Eve
o'clock in the evening in such q way
Gas it was found the next morning)
as to show that the door was not
opened after that hour. So it is
probable the deed was committed
some time during the day.
His absence was not particularly
noticed by his family, if we are cor
rectly informed, until Sunday morn
ing, when . neighbor went to look
for him. Going to Wightman's Of
fee, and finding the door locked, he
looked in and saw his hat lying on
q table. The door being forced open,
his iteless body was found suspended
by strong comfort which he was
accustomed to wear. Over u door
which opens into small room ad.
joining his Office he had placed a
short poker, around which he tied
the comfort, and also around bis aeck
and had thus choked himself 70 death
Ibis knees almost touching the
floor. The body was taken down, an
inquest held, and the funeral, unde,
the direction of the "Old Settlers,
