WEEKLY, sEMI-WEEKLY and DAILY

THE WEEKLY SUN IS TOO WIDELY
4 known to require any extended re.
commendatiOn but the reasons which
have already given it fifty thousand sub.
scribers, and which will, we hope, give it
many thousands more, are briefly as
follows:
1t is a first-rate newspaper, All the
news of the day will be found in it, con.
densed when unimportant, at full length
when of moment, and always presented
in clear, Ineligible and interesting
manner.
1t is a first-rate family paper, full of en-
tertaiuing and instructive reading of eve
ry kind, but continuing nothing that can
offend the most delicate and scrupuious
taste.
1t is a first-rate story paper. The best
tales and romances of current literature
are carefully selected and legibly printed
in its pages.
1t is a iirst-rate agricultural paper
The most fresh and instructive articles on
agricultural topics regularly appear in
this department.
1t is an Independent political paper, be-
longing to no party and wearing no col
lar. 1t fights for principle, and for the
election of the best men to office. 1t es-
pecially devOtes its energies to the expo
sure OF the great corruptions that now
weaken and disgrace our country, and
threaten to undermine republican institu-
tions altogether. 1t has no fear of knaves,
and asks no favors from their supporters
1t reports the fashions for the ladies
and the markets for the men, especially
the cattle markets, to which 1t pays par
ticniar attention.
Finally, it is the cheapest paper pub
lished. One dollar year will secure it
for any subscriber. 1t is not necessary to

Festival in Iceland,

Iceland has in contemplation next
year to celebrate the thousandth year
since the settlement of the island 1874.
AS early rs $50 a Dane named Garbar
was drifted from Scotland in the
stormy weather northwarls to an un-
known coast. He wintered in the
country and called it Garbarsholm.-
Shortly thereafter a Norwegian, Ma
dod, was also drifted there. In 1863
the island was visited by another Nor
wegian, Floke, who remained for a
year there and named it Island. In
golf, driven into exile on account of
cruelties perpetrated by the Norwe-
gian King Hagar .Haarsager, proceeded
in 1874 with his foster brother to Ice
land, and there founded the earliest
settlements. These were near the
place where Reikiayik, the capital of
the Island, now stands. Others fol-
lowed the two brothers, end the island
was soon inhabited. From Iceland,
Greenland, as is known, was discover
ed, aud from it hardy Morse seamen,
about the year 1000, reached that part
of the coast of the American continent
now forming Massachusetts. 1t is,
consequently not without some his
torical justification that the celebrated
Norwegian violinist, Ole Bull, has
been collecting subscriptions at con-
certs among his countrymen to erect a
monument to the Norwegian. Left
Erikson, the first discoverer of Ameri-
ca, as the latter touched American
ground from four to five hundred
years before Columbus, and there are

MYSTERY.

Wonder if oak and maple,
Willow and elm and all,
Are stirred at heat by the coming
OF the day their leaves must fall.
Do they think of the yellow whirlwind,
Or know of the crimson spray
That shall be when chill November
Bears all their leaves away?
Perhaps-beside the water
The willow bends, serene
AS when her young leaves glistened
In mist of golden green.
But the brave old oak is flushing
Ioa Wine-red, dark and deep,
And maple and elm are blushing
The blush of child asleep.
eff die we must" the leaflets
Seem one by one to say,
awe will wear the colors of gladness
Until we pass away.
No eyes shall see us faltcr:
And before we lay it down,
Wen wear, in the sight of all the earth,
The years most kindly CROWN"
So, trees of the stately forest,
And trees by the trodden way,
You are kindling into glory
This soft autumnal day.
And we who gaze remember
That more than all the rest,
10 hearts and trees together
May come through the ripening frost.

u The Committee of Immigration
appointed by the Irish Catholic Benev-
client Union, which held its annual con-
vention in st. Louis last week, held a
meeting before leaving the city, and
organized by the election of Judge Den
mis- Dwyer, of Ohio, president, and NJ.
Glennan, of Norfolk, Va, secretary.
A general plan of operation was agreed
to, the principal features Of which are
that Secretary Glennan shall cores
pond with all local and State societies
belonging to the Irish Catholic Benev-
olent Union, requesting them to APP
point all or as many as possible of the
parish priests i n Ireland, informing
them of the objects of the Irish Catho-
lie Benevolent Union, and urging them
to influence those seeking homes in this
coantry to place themselves under the
protection of the Union. 1t is not the
intention Of the National Board, how
ever, to solicit or encourage immigra-
ton, but simply to protect and aid all
those who determine of their own &C
dord to leave their country for Amer
lea. The establishment of depots and
Offices at the various seaports conjoint-
ly with the German Catholic Board or
ganized for the same object was dis
cusscd, and will probably be carried
out.

tortured spirit of George Russ,

exit in the numerously attended

himself at one fell swoop of the

sudden distinction Which comes to

The following resolution was unani
mously adopted by that "disorganized,
noisy, wrangling mob" which recently
meet IN the town Of Hammond.
Resobed. THAT, the exemption from
taxation of the lands of the West Wisconsin
Railway Company encourages that COM
pany to demand exorbitant prices for their
lands, thereby delaying the settlement and
development of the country, and imposing
all the burdens of taxation for roads.
schools, and other purposes upon the few
settlers. We therefore demand that the So
called law which provides for the exemp.
ton o: these lands from tax alton, (the con-
stitutionality Of which is strongly denied)
shall be repealed, and the lands assessed
and taxed.
That was singular "mob," Bro.
Taylor. You should remember that our
Republican friends in Trempeleau,
Buffolo, Jackson, Clark, Eau Claire,
Dunn and Pepin counties, have all
passed similar resolutions. Were they
sane? or insane? Were they drunk?
Or was Bro. Taylor "little sprung"
when he was in the midst OF that "mob!"
How is this, friends?

believe this change would add in-
terest to our schools, and thus raise the
grade Of scholarship in the state.
If student once gets well interest
ed in any branch / believe that he can
be more cas- lily interested, in any other
branch. Who ever saw an intelligent
boy that was not interested in philoso-
ply, or bright or even dull girl not
fond of botany? If these are begun
early in life, it will train the mind for
industry in scholarship, and active
thought, l always discourage those
from studying geography, who arc
young, and yet have wasted few
terms upon some given text book. Also
history, unless of a fair age. An
earlier change from arithmetic to alge.
bra | deem advisable, as the latter
helps to explain the former. If tho
pupil is quite familiar with one gram
mar do not let him learn another au.
thor, unless he is Of mature age. 1t
will confuse him.
In general, the mind must be led,
not driven to cultivation. Gold is
precious, but a stalk of corn could not
take its food from soil Of gold dust.
SO the human mind can never be fore
ed into a healthful vigorous action on
an uncongcnial topic. The proper OBJ
jects to call forth its activity are placed
all around us, from the tiny flower to
the burning suns that send Pickering
beam to tell the story Of their condition.
In contemplating what God intended
we should, our minds gain strength and
grow like plant in its proper soil.
