Interesting from y. S. Consuls in China
Liberal and Humane Course of the Vice
roy-Chinese Commerce.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 23.-The U. S. Consul at
Tientsin, China, i'll despatch to the Depart
ment of State, reports that two English ply
sicians have had remarkable success in their
practice in the royal family, leading to an i'm
mense practice among the common people.
The Viceroy has established a free dispensa-
ry and placed one Of the doctors at its head.
The whole expense is borne by the Viceroy.
He has also noticed favorably Miss Howard,
M. D., an American lady who holds high
rank among the physicians of Picking. The
liberal and humane course by the foremost
man in the Empire will do much to break
down the preiudices of people. This is only
one illustration of the enterprise and progress
sive spirit of the Viceroy.
The U. S. Consul at Foo Chow in dispatch
to the Department of State, dated Aug. 30,
1879, after abiding to the difficulty Of obtain
ing the facts in regard to the Chinese COM
merce, says there has been little direct trade
with the United States from China since the
destruction of our commerce by the rebel
cruisers.
The few American goods that find their way
to Foo Chow come by the way of Hong Kong
in native vessels. OF the exports of tea from
Foo Chow about 100000 poonds go to Eu-
rope and about 100000 to the United States.
There has been a decrease of expectations of
tea to the United States since 1871, owing to
the popularity of japanese teas in the United
States, and the increasing trade with Japan
and its greater proxi nifty to this country.
The Increase of Commerce with Ameri-
ca-The Cholera.
Mr. Bingham, United States Minister to
Japan, in a recent despatch to the Department
of State, dated Sept. 20, 1879, gives much in
teresting and valuable information regarding
that Empire. During the past year the inn
ports from the United States amounted to 3d.
100000, and the exports to the United States
81, 100000. The tonnage of American ship
ping is greater than that of all the European
countries combined, excepting Great Britain.
The commerce of the United States with japan
is increasing.
The statistics Of the cholera, which has pre-
vailed there during the season, are startling

ST. CRoIx COUNTY TEACHERS AS
ISOLATION AT NEW RICHMOND
FEB. 8, 1878.

The Association was called to order
by the President, w. E. Barker, at
o'clock.
After appointing Mr.. Whitcomt
Secretary pro tenn. the Association
listened to Mr.. Chas. Goodwin who pre-
scented an article on Common Fractions.
The question brought some vigorous
discussion and the final conclusion was
that it is more important to teach the
principles first than to teach simply
hoaO to get results.
A paper on how to teach the Geog.
raphy of Wisconsin, by Mr.. Wright.
was well received. He takes the com.
mon sense method of beginning at
home and then gradually taking up the
State.
Our very efficient County Supt. Miss
Clapp. gave us some valuable hints on
teaching language. She says "Homeo'
pathic doses of theory and Allopatbic
doses of practice" The main object
being to make pupils think.
A talk on the present condition OF
our schools followed, in which many
took part. The general feeling be
ing that there ought to be more per
feet plan of conducting the work in
our district school. There is lack Of
foundation. caused by not having 6
common basis OF operation.
The next meeting is to be held al
Baldwin in three weeks from the
present meeting. After examining the
Question Box Miss Shaw read tht
Critics report. All are earnest IL
their work and strong desire was
manifest to meet soon in the Norma
building if we could obtain permits

AN APT ILLUSTRATION.

About a year ago Messrs. Nicodemus
and Conover published a sectional
map of Wisconsin which is doubtless
Il very valuable one. A few weeks ago
Prof. Nieodenus died. A bill was in
| troduced in the Senate authorizing the
State authorities to purchase 700 cop
| les of this map, ostensibly for public
use. The bill was opposed by num-
| Der of the Senators, one of whom ex-
pressed his opposition in effect as fol-
| lows: II should vote for the bill if
the whole amount was to be given to
Mrs. Nicodemus, but | have learned
that fifteen hundred dollars of the
amount will go to pay three notes, and
for that reason | shall vote against
the BILL How logical that reasoning
is. 1t does not require very extern
sive stretch of the imagination to OBJ
serve that the Senator i'll question, up
on certain condition would have IA
vored the bill, without any considera-
ton whatever as to the necessity or
even propriety of the purchase, but to
give Mrs. Nicodemus few hundred
dollars from the State treasury; we
say gire because the Senator did not
recognize any necessity for the pur-
chase, for if be had he would have
voted for the bill without any refer
ence whatever to whom the purchase
money would have gone. The Legis-
latufe, prompted by this pernicious
sentiment that in certain cases some
thing should be given for nothing to
"help OUT somebody, has voted away
thousands of dollars of the peoples
money which has been contributed in
many instances by those who do not
enjoy the ordinary comforts of life.
The Calkins claims, the Martin claims,
the purchase of Moses Strong's cabi-
net and instruments. and ether appro-
priations of less note which may be
seen by reference to the session laws,
constitutes appropriations of thous-
ands of dollars of questionable ma
ture and against which taxpayers
should Indignantly protest. If those
Legislators who are crying that the af-
fairs of all offices should be conducted
upon purely business principles would
govern their actions as Legislators up
IN q husiness basis and from a business
standpoint as they would judiciously
conduct their own private affairs they
would exhibit a consistency truly
touching to behold.

REV. HENRY WARD BEECHEER
raised the dust Sunday. He preached
ON ciphers, Chinese immigration and
Mormonism. He deplored corruption
in politics and said if Louisiana had
been left alone she surely would have
given majority that no returning
board could have wiped out. He did
Mt say for which candidate. The au-
dience applauded by stamping so Wig
orously that they raised the dust. He
was opposed to keeping out the Chi
nese, and said the hand of an execu.
tive who would sign the bill recently
passed should be paralyzed. The gov.
eminent should show more firmness
toward the Mormons and stamp out
polygamy forever.

THE death of Thomas Lord, the ag-
ed millionaire of New York, whose
marriage with the blooming Mrs.
Hicks caused such sensation in up
per social circles more than year ago,
may create legal quarrel of some IN
terest. At the time of the marriage
it was stated that Mrs. Hicks, to APP
pease the opposition of the sons of
Mr.. Lord, gave up her claim to any
share in her husband s wealth. But
it is altogether likely that there will
be contest over the disposition of
the property.
