WIND or MUSCLE READING.

We gave the other day some account
of MIR. Browns curious mind-readmg.
We were willing to attribute it to some
subtle sympathy Of mind with mind, some
power of the brair to reach beyond itself,
without the aid OF the senses And We
supposed that this furnished the key to
some Of the unexplained mysteries OF the
spir itualists, and WAS kindred with clair
voyancc. somnambulism, &c. For we
hold that the sound mind should err
neither to credulity nor Incredibly and
that it is Is great IN error to believe
nothing as to beliere everything; hence
We are willing to conceAe that there an

oursslf witnessed, explainable BY N

THE NORMAL SCHOOLS AND PRO

Two weeks since, in pursuance Of our
undoubted right to control our own COL
umns, and of the right Of An American
citizen to discuss any public question. we
proceeded to consider the subject Of Nor
NAL Schools in this State. Our readers
will bear us witness that the editorial was
a calm and temperate review Of the mat
tiers in issue, full of citations and facts,
and containing no abuse Of any one.
Soon after it appeared, Hon. Thomas
Simpson, Of winona, for whom We have
always entertained kindly and respectful
feelings, wrote to know II we would pub
lish . letter from the Principal OF the
Winona Normal School, Prof Phelps, IN
defence of the system We answered
him that we would do so with great
pleasure. We supposed that Prof. Phelps
was . gentleman: and that he would mol

kind enough to offer him to emit the foul
est personal abuse Of curself. But ~
were mistaken. Instead Of discussing thu

striking point.
The following statistics of taxation arc
obtained from reliable sources, and show
the comparative rate in the four princi-
pal governments Of Europe and in the
United States for the year 1870, that be-
inr the date Of our lait census. The rate
per capita IN the United States includes
State, county and municipal taxes, and
the same is included in the figures for
the other nations 50 far Is they have any

THE COMING MAN.. HALL FOX ALL
AND ALL FOR HALL.

HIP. Hall, of the st. Paul DlsPdtcn
has been working hard to get up TIDAL
wave for Louis E. Fisher for Governor;
and 10 now the Pine County Meas comes
out in favor of Hall se-y-.-.
So say we all Of us. Hall is progress
sive: Hall is reformer Hall belongs to
the present generation. Give US dali !
Hall first, last and all the time. Hall is
a man of extraordinary energy and abili-
tv; Hall will discount Fisher every time.
Hall is a Liberal and an Anti Aonopolist,
and at the same time popular with the
old Democrats.
What say you, brethren of the press;
shall it be Hall Stir up the puddle and
star. a tida! wave. Hall against the
world!
We want our readers to write US let
tiers in favor of Hall from all parts of the
State, and if they don't, we will write
them ourself.
Here is the editorial we refer to:
The next thing in the world of least
interest to us, is who will be the Gov
| ernor. The last two legislatures have
convinced us that the Governor is next

him. but still the people are not happy

ture, one that will clip and trim of every
thing that is useless, every thing that Is

Louis E. Fisher has been nomin

so, to save their lives at least, they built
houses high upon the cliffs, where they
could store food and hide away till the
raiders left. But one Summer the invaders
did not go back to their mountains as the
people expected, but brought their families
with them and settled down. So driven
from their homes and lands, starving in
their little inches on the high cliffs, they
could only steal away during the night,
and wander across the cherries uplands.

such flight seems terrible, and the mind
hesitates to picture the suffering of the sad
fugitives.
AT the christone they halted and probably
found friends, for the rocks and caves are
full of the nests of these human wrens and
swallows. Here they collected, erected
stone Notifications and watch towers, dug
reservoirs in the rocks to hold a supply Of
water, which IN all cases is precarious in
this latitude, and once more stood at bay.
Their foes came, and for one long month
fought and were beaten back, and returned
day after day to the attack as merciless
and inevitable as the tide. Meanwhile the
families of the defenders were evacuating
and moving south, and bravely did their
protectors shield them till they were all
safely hundred miles away. The beseig-
ers were beaten back and went away. But
the narrative tells us that the hollows of
the rocks were filled to the brim with the
mingled blood of conquerors and the con-
quered, and red veins of it ran down into
the canon. 1t was such victory as they
could not afford to gain again, and they
were glad when the long fight was over to

VIOLETS.
BY EUGENE.

The season has come when the violets bloom
With fragrance rare on the Spring day
air.
They spangle the sod DER Winters tomb,
And stay the mourner's falling tear
They slept deep beneath a white snowy
wreath,
Through the Winter days, when the sun S
dim rays
Scarcely touched the earth, and the icy
breath
OF the Winter-king reigned through the
dreary days.
But Winter has tled-for a season is dead
And Spring has come, like wanderer
home;
And the violet raiseth its tiny head,
Beneath the blue sky's vaulted dome.
Flowers more fair, are seen everywhere,
In green shaded hooks by dancing brooks;
But none with a perfume half so rare
AS the violet small, with its modest looks.
The bright bloom of the sky it caught from
on high
When it first raised it's head from its
noisome bed:
And it loves to bloom where the willows
sigh
Above its modest and dropping head.
Thou fairest flower, thy shaded bower
Is the sweetest place on the worlds wide
face;
Thou art shielded alike from the Spring
day shower
And the suns burning beams as they fall
apace.
