But such nonsense as We have
quoted is usually written by sons
northern fanatic, whom kind for
tune has far removed from these
sad scenes of outraged wqmaphond;
bit when the dark shadow falls upon
their own hearthstones, then they
join the mobs, and help more blood
to cry out from the branches. But
while this be true, we believe it to be
wrong. We know the arguments

take life by violence without ourselves
becoming breakers of she law; and
worse men when we come out of a

Mulkey of Polk county was elected
president, to succeed Prof. WIN.

After reading of the report of the

mittee for the past year, the election
of president for the ensuing year was
considered. Though numerous applica-
tions were on file for the position.
Hon. B. +. Mulkey, of Monmouth,

Mulkey is at present state senator
from Polk County and well known all
over the northern part of the state
and a teacher in the state normal
