HOW MR.. SEWARD DID NOT
DRAW A REVOLVER
ON TOOMBS,

Not long ago gentleman was
telling me a Senatorial anecdote of
and dating back to the ante-beIIum
days. Mr.. Seward had made a
speech Something about the teIe-
graph, when Mr.. Toombs, of Geor-
gia, arose to reply, and made a speech
full Of personal abuse of Seward.
He wrought himself up into a rage,
and dashed about in the most ag-
gressive manner. He finished and
took his seat. AS Mr.. Seward rose
from his chair every eye was bent
upon him with the greatest anxiety.
With calm, measured steps he
walked toward Mr.. Toombs. It was
noticed that his right hand was I'M
derneath the rear pocket of his coat.
There was apprehension that he was
concealinga pistol, and Mr.. Toombs
friends crowded around him.
When Mr.. Seward reached him he
drew out his hand, and opening his
snuf-box politely invited his adver-
sary to take a pinch Of snuff. ''My
Cod" said Mr.. Toombs, "Mr.
Seward, have you no feelings?"
"Take a pinch of snuff; it will
soothe your agitation" He then
returned to his seat, and. without
any allusion to Mr.. Toombs or his
speech, made an able argument in
favor of his measure, which carried,
as GOODNESS and self-possesion will
always win the victory over hot tenn
per and passionate invective.-

WATERFOWL DAIRY
MARKET.

The Association metal their sales
rooms on the Both ult. The ques-
ton Of shipping cheese to London
was brought up and quite thorough
ly discussed. Letters were read
from D. lei. Burrell & Co., Little
Falls, N. Y, agents for Corderoy &
Co., London and from III. Dousman,
Of Waterville, who has shipped to
Chas. Cusack & Co., Liverpool.
y. Ii. BurrelI & Co., stated that the
London market required a firm, rich,
fine-grained cheese, well colored, of a
fine orange shade, with the cream all
in. That in shipping, the boxes
should be cut down so as the cover
should rest on the cheese solidly;
also scale boards at top and bottom
of the cheese, Mr.. Dousman stated
that the agent Of the Grand Trunk
Line would ship cheese to Liverpool
from Milwaukee for one cent per
pound In gold. Il was ascertained
that cheese could be shipped by the
Union Star Line to New York, in
ventilated cars, from any point south
Of Fond du Lac for one cent per
pound.
After some consultation on the par
of those members presented, one car
load Of cheese, 400 boxes was made
up to be consigned to D. I'll. Burrell
& Co., New York, for the London
market, one carload to Davis &
Sutton, New York, and two carloads
to A. & I. w, Leggett, New York.
The cheese shipped to New York
three weeks since sold for y cents.

on the road. A spirit Of unity and
encouragement prevailed among the

They have a 'Iive Indian" in
London, and they are making the

Chippewa persuasion; and, going
about in what the London newspa-
pers call his ''native garb,'' he at
tracts considerable attention. But
he is a thoroughly modified, and, we
may say, civilized savage, and his
business in England is to collect mon
ey for setting up an Industrial
School among his people. He takes
kindly to the fashionable life of a
London lion, and lately attended a
garden party given by Mrs. TAFT at
Lambeth Palace. His noble name is

TWENTIETH ANNUAL SESSION OF
THE WISCONSIN TEACHERS
ASSOCIATION.

The Association convened pursuant to
notice in the Assembly Chamber at Madi-
son, on the evening of the 9th inst.
The exercises were opened by lecture
from J. H. Toombly D. D.
On Wednesday morning the exercises
were opened by singing, followed by an
address from President Samuel Shaw.
This address contained sound and practi-
cal thoughts, logically connected, and
clothed IN the raiment of classic finish
seldom equaled. Next in order was the
appointment Of committees, after which
the proposed amendment to tho Censtitu-
ton was fully discussed, and finally ia
bled under tie weight Of speeches made
by Professors Graham and Albee. The
amendment purported to make ladies eli
gible to membership on the payment Of
annual dues Of fifty cents each.
The distribution Of educational intelli-
gence by two minute verbal reports, was
Of rare interest. Here it may be well to
notice, that Mr. Barnes of Racine supple
mented the report for that city by saying
~'The Racine Board of Education is
among the most progressive and best in
The State"
A well written essay was then read by
Hiss NJ. A Terry on the subject of Wo-
mans Wages for Teaching. This essay
contained some able arguments on the
equal compensation of male and female
teachers. On this subject discussion
followed by Supt. North of Waukesha
and Miss Ella Stewart. Both sides were
ably sustained, Miss Stewart is a young
lady of fine attainments; and proved her
self equal to the task Of sustaining nearly
every proposition she made in the course
of a lengthy and eloquent argument.
According to the programme, the gen.
.eral meeting was divided into two sec
tions,--the High School section which
met in the Senate Chamber, and the In
ermediate and Primary section in the
@Assembiy Chamber in the chair Of tn,
former was Prof Parker of Janesville, il
the latter, Prof. Graham of Oshkosh. Mrs
H. Z. G. Avery Of Whitewater read III
essay on "The Child" This essay wa
one of rare merit, showing the most &C
curate and practical thought,-breadth o
comprehension and culture, which must
prove of inestimable value to those wh'
had the good fortune to hear it.
The kindergarten was then discussed
by J. @. Emery and A. Earthman. This
subject was thoroughly canvassed BY
these gentlemen, who maintained, in sub
stance, that Nature in all her works, EN-
ploys her own agencies and that th'
Kindergarten being based on this princi
pie, must subserYe the desired object O.

A few days ago couple Of Bos-
ton runners entered restaurant in
Portland and ordered a dinner.
One was pleased to order plate Of
baked beans. When he came To
settle he asked the price, and was
informed that forty cents would be
satisfactory. The runner was as
founded, and exclaimed, "Isn't that
an outrageous price for a plate Of
beans p The man of grub got
mad, and said that was the price and
that it must be paid. The runner
re-uttered the same exclamation of
astonishment several times and paid
the scot. On going out of the door
he turned and yelled it again, but
the bean man was silent. The next
day the restaurant-keeper received a
dispatch and paid the telegraph boy
forty cents. Judge, if you can, Of
his utter disgust, when, upon open
ing it, he read, 'Isn't that an out

COMMENCEMENT AT WILLoUGHBY.

COMMENCEMENT AT WILLOUGHBY.
THE exercises of commencement week
opened on Monday. x <
The Baccalaureate Address richly de-
serves more than can be said Of it here.
The recognized excellence of President
Lee as an educator gave warrant of a
practical and superior discourse but a
happy surprise was expressed on every
hand that so young man should deal
with the eubtleties of mind and thought
with such mastery. The address was
characterized throughout by an admirable
clearness and simplicity yet fully meeting
the demands of nice metaphysical dis
tinction and logical sequence of ideas.
The subject was Education in that broad
sense which places the man above the
scholar, showing that the perfect culture
will have'more regard to being than at
tanning, and place more significance upon
what the scholar as than what he hos.
The only shadow Of the day was that
cast on all, and especially the students, in
consequence of Pres. Lees retiring from
his post for further study, all felt and
strongly expressed the loss HIS success
has been such as to make his stay seem al
most necessary to the continued prospect
ty Of the College"
'CHANGE OF PRINCIPAL.-Prof L. O.
Lee, who during the past year has been
the wide awake, energetic and able Prin-
cipal Of the Willoughby College, has
closed his engagement with the Trustees
of that Institute and will soon go east to
study theology. We understand that
Prof. Kirk will succeed him as the
head Of the school. In parting with Prof
Lee the people Of WillOughby will expe
rience no little regret. Observation-Disclosures
has been one of marked ability and sue

qualification, known by the community to
be an excellent and thorough instructor,
he has won the confidence and good will

SPEECHES.

After the adjournment Colonel Hinton, of
Norfolk, apparently the fayorite orator of
the Convention, was called out, and made
speech Of stirring eloquence, which was re-
cefved with great applause. ..as -.
Judge Guild was next called for, and re-
sponded. His remarks were in the main
based upon the announcement in the morn
ing papers that the. venerable University of
Harvard had conferred upon Ulysses S.
Grant the title of LII. d. Ulysses, the.
silent gift-tsker, q doctor OF law. Doctor
Grant; the last title prevails. What were
his qualifications for this title? The speaker
had during the war corresponded with Gen
eral Grant for SIX months, ard although that
correspondence did not throw much light
upon hisiknowledge of law, it did show that
he did not knew how to write decent Eng
lisb. II must he then yielding on the part
Of old Harvard to the uian.worshiping spirit
of tie agc, and it shows hoH sadly the
times are out Of joint. In speaking Of
his correspondence with Grant, Judge
Ould remarked incidentally that he was pre-
pared to show, by the most indubitable evi-
deDce, that General Grant, and he alone, was
responsible for the interruption Of the ex.
change of prisoners during the last year of
the war, whereby thousands of Confederate
and Federal soldiers were Deedlessly incar.
ceratcd for months. ~ r ~ n I:
After Judge Ould concluded, Mr.. Gilman,
of Richmond, and Mr.. w. vi. Berry;o Bed.
ford, were called upon and spoke after
which the crowd dispersed. 4
