Of its medical springs, situated about
five miles from the city at Manitou.

out from the side Of the mountains
just wide enough for q pony to travel,

above the clouds we finally reach the
top, a mass Of broken rock, and at such
an altitude that the pulse increases
from 10 at the base to 125. A peculiar
feeling comes over you, and you will
think as many a one has before how
can ever get down, but after resting
a while you can remount your pony
and commence the down grade, away
above the tree line. You must net
look down too much until you reach

The State Republican ticket deserves
the support Of every Republican at
next Tuesdays election. The people Of
this county have special reasons for
supporting it strongly, inasmuch as an
important place on the ticket is given
to KenOsha county man. 1t is good
thing to be represented in thes State
government. 1t is an honor to the
county to hold the Office Of Secretary of
State. To fail to endorse the ticket
would be to vote against the honor the
State convention has sought to confer
upon us in the nomination Of Mr.. Tim
me. We have no fears but that Mr.
Timme will carry his party in the coun
ty. There have been too frequent in
stances of the estimation in which he
is held by the voters of the county
Every party should unite on his name
at least, and send him to the Capital
with rousing support.

D. A. MAHONEY,
HOW I SPEND MY FRTDA Y
AFTERNOONS.

HOW I SPEND MY FRIDAY
AFTERNOONS.
Every teacher, whether in charge Of
q common school or one of higher
grade, should spend at least two hours
every week on the subject of universal
culture. The mind of the child is like
an unpublished gem, and it's instructor
should act as a lapidary in polishing
and bringing out it's true value. The
rough corners need to be knocked off,
and many q finishing touch applied be-
fore honest, blunt and supplemented
childhood comes upon the stage of
manly action.
Many persons can remember the time
when they wandered, as boys and girls,
barefooted and needless, up to the very
gates of manhood and womanhood,
without any one to point out to them
the thousand and one little requisites
which are so needful to us all who have
any desire to become useful members
of society. 1t is very humiliating for
us to feel obliged to cultivate, at the
age of twenty or thirty, that which
should have been taught us at ten or
In my academy there are in attend
ance those who are preparing them
selves for teaching, while others are
pursuing common course. I devote
every Friday afternoon to the follow
ing subjects: For about two hours
hearing declarations, recitations, es-
says and the like; criticising the style,
the manner of delivery, the positions
on the stage, the tone of voice, and in
fact all the points of imperfection that
are noticeable. Generally appoint
two or three critics from among the
pupils themselves, to induce them to
cultivate the faculty Of perception and
discrimination. Then the subject of
correspondence is taken up il all it's
branches, as letter writing, how to
direct envelopes and address persons of
title, notes Of invitation, Of acceptance,
Of declination, letters Of a business and
social nature. Frequently the whole
school address me letters on the above
subjects, which are corrected, criticised
and returned. At first some ars of a
comical nature. One boy handed in
the following: "PrOf.---, Ma wants
you to come to supper to night" Now
he can write as correct and polite an
invitation as any one. A short time is
then spent on etiquette in general. |
How to appear in company, etc, etc. |
The last hour is spent in discussion
upon the most important topics of the
day, in religion, science, and politics.
This find is the most interesting part
Of the week to the scholars. They look
forward to it with pleasure, and mani |
fest strong desire to excel each other |
in becoming polished members of socie-
ty. Perfect order is observed during
the exercises, and this manner of clos
ing the exercises of the week is one
cause of my success in teaching.

the proposed amendments as one PROPOSE
ton, or against all Of them, anu any ballot
which fails to carry out this intent, should
be discarded by The Inspectors
1t is more in harmony with my own idea
of right TO give 10 each voter The power 10
express his view upon each proposition sepa
rately, for il may be than some electors will
favor one proposition and oppose another;
viii favor biennial sessions Of the Lcgisla-
ture without an increased compensation
This view it seems to me is in harmony with
Section ! of Article II of the Constitution,
which provides that if more than one amend
ment be submitted they shall be submitted
in such manner that the people may vote for
or against such an amendment separately.
However, the Legislature, in 1869, by chap
ter 1856 of the laws of 1869, when submitting
to vote ofLhe people proposed amendments
to Sections and 3 of Article of the Con-
stitutien, declared the form Of the ballot as
follows; "For the amendments to the Con-
stitution;' 'For the amendments to the
Constitution Mo-" making it impossible al
that time, as think ii does in the present
instance, for the voter to vote for one pro.
position and against another. That Legisla.
ture made said ballot part of the general
ballot and directed that it should be depos.
tied in the same box, thus apparently ignor.
ing the idea of separate vote on each
amendment, or that the ballot for or against
amendments should be separate from the
general ballot. This is the only instance
since the adoption of the Constitution where
two amendments have been submitted to Q
vote of the people at one election, and those
amendments were adopted. Hence think
it is safe to hold that at this election ther,
can be but two forms of ballots as expressed
in Section 2--one in favor of all the proposed
amendments and the other against all 0
them; and also that there should be but on
separate box for the ballots on the amend
ments 10 the Constitution.
Yours respectfully,
ALEX. WILSON, Attorney General.

Below is a letter from President
Chaplin, of Beloit college, on the politi-
cal situation
BELoIT, October oath, 1851.
DEAR SIR:
l have the honor to acknowledge the
receipt OF your favor Of the nth inst.
exceedingly deprecate the starting
of an Independent Temperance ticket
for the pending election in our State,
as a measure, in my view, fraught on
" with mischief to both the cause Of
temperance and the political welfare of
our commonwealth and our nation.
Nearly every vote given for the tenn
perance ticket will be one taken from
the Republican party, and will contrib
ute so far to pass the rule Of the State
over to the Democratic party, which
makes the drinking saloons the centers
Of influence, and which has been,
through all its history, the determined
opponent of all measures designed to
restrict the sale and use Of intoxicat.
ing liquors, to say nothing Of its ruin
GUS policy in other matters. They who
have at heart the moral elevation of
our people and the sound administra-
ton Of our public affairs, may well
pause before assuming the risk Of such
consequences from a measure of such
doubtful expediency.
Very truly yours,
A. j.. CHAPLIN.
