administration in Ohio for one year is
saving to the tax payers of the State
Of sl,639, 900. Reduction in tax lcvies

MEDIcAL.-We notice that new copartnel ship
is announced this week between DR.. A. Farr, Of
this city and DR.. William Fl. Saunders formerly
Cf Lawrence, Kansas. Nothing need be said in
this community as to The ability and skill Of the
senior member of this firm. AS physician and
surgeon he has few superiors in the state.
DR.. Saunders who comes among us a stranger
is graduate of the literary and medical depart
ments of Michigan University. He obtained his
diploma as ''M. D.. in the year 1864 and has ever
since that time been actively engaged in the
practice of his profession He has given special
attention to surgery in which branch he is said to
be proficient. For time he was employed in
connection with his practice to deliver lectures
on chemistry in the University of Kansas located
at Lawrence.
In the celebrated Ruth poisoning case tried in
the year 1869 the Doctor selected by the state
to make the necessary chemical analyses which
were intricate and difficult, and upon the correct
ness of which the whole case rested. Some of our
| readers may have noticed his testimony as PRINT
ed in the report of that case in the newspapers.
The Doctor acquired considerable notorety for
this skillful analysis in the ABOVE case, which
demonstrated that he was a thoroughly scientific
man. We have no doubt as 10 the success of the
new firm and cheerfully commend them as wor-
thy the confidence of the public.

CHRISTMAS.

Before another Issue of the
LEGRAPH Christmas will
have come and gone. So we
embrace the present occasion to wish
the readers Of the TELEGRAPH and
all the people q Merry Christmas.
As there is time for every pur-
pose under the sun, there is time
to be merry, and Christmas seems to
be suitable time. The seveaal
churches will meet at their respective
places of warship for religious exer-
cises in accordance with their respec-
tive beliefs. The giving of presents.
and especially to the young, is an
important part of merry-making,
and those who deal in articles for
Christmas presents have laid in a
full supply to meet the demands of
their customers. And as the coming
Christmas is the forerunner of the
first of our National Centennial by
only few days, it is right that the
people ahould be joyful on Chritmas.
Right to bejoyful and to make merry.
All hearts are the better for being
sometimes joyful, and sad hearts are
sometimes made better by being
made joyful. Who, in Kenosha, in
their merry-making, will make a sad
heart joyful? Who will lift the sad
ness and woe from the afflicted and
those who mourn, and bling gladness
and Joy to those who need to be
comforted and made to rejoice? Who?
Who will rescue the truant and make
them to be faithful to duty2 Who?
Who will reclaim the vicious and
enable them to practice virtue?
Who? Who will do some
of these good works in their merry
making? Who? The harvest in
all these respects is fully ripe and
there is work for many laborers.
And the laborer is worthy Of his hire.
Who Hill labor, and who will receive
his reward?

NEW SUBSCRIBERS

We should like to commence the Cen
tenpial year with large number Of new
subscribers for the TELEGRAPH-with a
largely increased subscription list.
We hear many commentators Of the
TELEGRAPH. All express themselves
gleased and satisfied. And itgives us
pleasure and satisfaction when we hear
and receive concentrations of the TEL
EGRAPH aud know that It's patrons are
pleased and satisfied. 1t gives us en-
couragement to increase our efforts to
improve the TELEGRAPH and to make it
better paper. The encouragement 0
an increased circulation is highly desira-
bic and necessary to enable us to accom-
Dilsh our purpose as we desire. And
we hope and trust TO receive new sub
scrlbers and increase our circulation
commensurate with our efforts to i'm
prove the paper and the necessity for
increased patronage. SO let new sub
scrlOers come IN. Tue more and faster
theyccme the better.

PATIENCE There is no kind vo-
cation, no degree, neither spiritual
nor temporal, no estate and condition
in life, which can lack this excellent
virtue, Christian patience. For, as
it is sometimes day, and sometimes
night, other whiles cold and frosty
winter, other whites pleasant and
lusty summer, and other whites
springtide. so the life of man and
woman is mingled Of sweet and sour
things. It hath commodities and
pleasures, and it hath griefs and dis
pleasure. There be things that de-,
light and refresh us, and there be
many things which modest, sting and
vex us. For who 10 there living,
either temporal or spiritual, which can
truly report that ne hath had contin~
ual health and prosperity, without
any storm of adversely? Where's
fore patience is necessary unto all
sorts of men.

Convention.

The Semi Annual Meeting of the Milwaukee
District Convention, held with the congregational
Church of this city, was opened last Tuesday
evening with sermon by the Moderator Rev.
Mr.. Scofeld, of Hartford. Mr. scofeld, took for
his text the second chapter of Ruth, 16h and 18th
verses. The theme of his discussion was the
are not the words OF childish expression, but an
expression of the strongest faith and love-just
such faith and love as anjmates every true CHRIS
tan heart. All pure religion is based upon these
cardinal virtues; and as consequence, all chris
tians bear the same family likeness and all resem
bic their Master-all living on the same plane
The reason why the unity of churches has not
been brought about is the fact that the hearts
of all christians are in harmony but their heads
are hot-their hearts are alike bnt tn cir heads
differ. True christian unity should be harmony
oflabor and oneness of purpose. There may be
harmony without oneness, and there may be one
ness without harmony. In this unity there
should be no presbyterians, congregationaliscs
baptists methodists, but all should unite in the
great work of outstanding the world, saving
the souls of men, honoring and clarifying God.
The Convention was in session Wednesday.
During the morning session, the subjects of wor
ship in the public schools and state institutions
ofcharity was discussed'what is The ground
for christian citizens to take on this question =
Inter Denominational Cooperation was also un-
der consideration. In the afternoon : How NAV
the churches aid the Sunday School !? Methods
of labor for those outside of the churches. How
to promote the christian activities of the younger
Oc coli
was devoted to the discussion of revvas-the
work for the winter. The Convention closed it's
Ilabors this morning by devotional Getting.

to convince them that there is no
foundation for their belief. And one
OF the surest means of securing this
result is the exercise of more care IN
the selection of teachers. The
teacher can exercise influence over
his scholars only according to what
is in himself. He cannot lift them
to any higher eminenee than that
which he has himself attained. The
stream cannot rise higher than it's
source. This is an unquestionea
fact and yet it is often overlooked.
We are too often satisfied with good
intellectual instruction, and forget
that moral fruit Is best. The after
life of the scholars should reflect
honor upon the teacher by display
ing, though at great distance, the
results of school training. In such
a case the teacher sees his own bet
ter traits reproduced in many who
caught from him the inspiration to al
nobler life. TT.
From the fifth annual report of the
Bureau of Education We CLEAN the fol-
g
lowing facts; During the year, there has
been an increase of 10000 pupils in at
tendance upon the public schools. In the
81 states and IL territories the public
school income increased 81, 232 600. The
whole number of pupils in The schools
was 100000. The average daily at
tendance was 100000. The number of
persons between 6 and Is years of age
was 1O,500,000 The total income for
1871 was $82.000,00O. The Total expen-
SEES for The same time was $74 600, 600.
The highest salaries were paid in the
Cherokee Nation, 1925 per month be-
ing paid 10 males and 5000 yer month TO
females. In the District OF Columbia
$113 per month were paid to males and
$75 per, month 20 females. During the
year 563 degrees were conferred ON O.
men. 40 900 Students were in he col
leges and scientific schools, and %, 900
in the preparatory schools.
Fifteen pupils were recently expell ed
from Princeton College. The secret
Literary Societies Of the College had
became so str@ng as to be considered
detrimental to the best interests of the
institution. Accordingly the faculty
requested the tudents to withdraw trnm
these Societies or make them open, and
upon their refusal to 90 so, fifteen OF
them--mos: OF them members of the
higher classes--were expelled.
