yesterday elected General William Malone
a senator in the Congress OF the United
States to take the place Of Colonel Robert
E. Withers, whose term expires on the 4th
Of March, 1881. Both halls were denseiy
crowded with visitors. The speaking was
decidedly animated; but there was no great
excttement-it being foregone conclusion
that the Joint vote Of the Republicans and
Readiusters would be more than sufficient
to overcome the strength of the regular
Conservatives. The proceedings in detail

MATTERS are approaching a crisis in
Chippewa county. A recent letter
from Chippewa Falls to the Milwaukee
Sentinel states that considerable ex-
element prevails in regard to judicial
affairs in that county, and that petit
lions are being widely circulated ask
ing the Legislature to place it in some
other Circuit, that a change in the Cir
cult Judge for that county may thus
be effected; that movement is opposed
by others who favor petition asking
Judge Barron to resign and another
favoring the appointment of Lieuten-
ant Governor Bingham in case Barron 5
resignation can be secured. which Is
not at all probable as Judge Barron Is
not one of those fellows who resign an
office unless it is to accept another one
which he prefers; the letter says that
the Board of County Supervisors IL al
so in favor of a change. as court ex-
penses in that county were over S24,-
600 during the past year. In addi-
ton to the alleged judicial excitement
over there the Chippewa Herald, which
has for years been growing sleek and
fat on big jobs of county printing, has
just come to the conclusion that taxes
are toe high and takes deleful view
of affairs as administered in that
county.

THE DEAF AND DUMB IN6rITU.
TION.

In Miss Eddy's faithful service, COM
menced with the organization of the
school in 1858, is found the means for
the dumb to speak--that priceless
power which alone, through its facili-
ty, enables the dumb to interchange
views sufficiently to broaden his ma
ture to something like the character
of his hearing brother. The process
of teaching articalation to the deaf de-
ponds upon the power of the teacher
to show to the child's eye, the position
of the lips, tongue, teeth, fauces and
larynx so far as possible, and then to
teach the pupil by actual manipula-
ton of the parts, to put the vocal or
cans in the position of the model. FL
naly the pupil is encouraged in his eff
forts by the look of intelligence given
by his teacher, signifying that she I'M
derstands him by speech. This process
is continued and is followed by loud
reading by each pupil, while each 9TH
CIR pupil of the class IN required to ut
ter the same language being guided by
sight alone, and the vocal drill culmi-
mates in declamations and reading in
the chapel that excels the utterance of
many school pupils of the same age.
A late writer has characterized the
acquisition of speech by the deaf. as
the glory of instruction of the deaf,
and any fair minded person, who real
ICES something of the superiority of
speech over all other means of com.
munication combined, as requisite
for enlarging thought, will view the
Delavan school with the firm convic-
ton that the work of real instruction
when possible, is worth all the effort
that the State makes for it, and the
noble teacher who has struggled, now
for more than fourteen years to MAIN
tain this feature of the work, is en-
titled to the cordial support of all in-
telligent persons, rather than the per-
sonal discouragements which have
met her almost continuously during
that time.

SCHOOL FOR DEPENDENT CHILL
DREN.

In his recent annual message Gov.
Smith states that there ale now in the
Industrial School for Boys about one
hundred boys who were sent there,
not because they had committed any
crime or because they had become in
corrigible, but solely because they had
no homes and there were no other
place for them except the poor house.
The Governor throws this class of
boys upon the mercy of the Legisla-
ture and the munifcence of eX-Gov.
Washburn, recommending the trans
formation of ''Edgewood' home, near
Madison, into State institution SINH
lar to one already in successful opera
ton in the State of Michigan, for their
benefit. Upon this recommendation a
joint special legislative committee
was appointed to confer with Gov.
Washburn relative to a transfer of
his Edgewood property to the State
for School for Dependent Children.
1t will be remembered that Gov. Wash
burn one year ago rendered to the
State his handsome house and grounds
as bequest to be converted into an
Industrial School for Girls, but in this
