NJ Guizot had accordingly felt surprise
at The language used by the president in h .

claim in reply Tor France an entire indeI en-.

commercial reasons which had indt col
France to recognize the Independence Of
Texas in 1888, and rendered her anxious ~

erations had been Of a still greater weight.
There were at present, he said, three pow
erful nations intent on aggrandizing be youd
measure ,heii erritories-England, Russia
and the United States.
France was now extending her domin-
ions. In Africa she had made a conquest
it was her honor and interest 10 preserve,
but the bounds Of which size would not
overstep. 1t was OF the highest import
ance to France that those three nations
should balance each others power, and that
none OF them should obtain a prepondera-
ting Influence. She was consequently in
tcrestcd in protecting the independence
OF the American States.

Union Academy.

HVHE undersigned is permanently established
Il as Teacher of Children and Youth, at Union
Academy, about three and half miles west of
Face,te. He is graduate, and has had nearly FIVE
years experience in teaching; more than three Of
which, he has spent in the house which he now
occupies; always giving special attention to the
best means of developing and instructing the
youthful mind.

struction, constant effort will be made to impart

sary branches, such as Arithmetic, English, Latin
and Greek Grammurs, and other stucies prepara-
tory to liberal course-as experience has proved,
that while pursuing these, the intellectual char
is mainly formed. Every pupil is required to
make thorough and rigid analysis Of each book
as he proceeds; to state in his own words his view
Of the subject in hand, that his misapprehensions
may be corrected, and thus to discipline aid
strengthen his own mind.
It will be the constant aim Of the Instructor to
prepare his pupils for the practical duties of life,
not only BY teaching them to think for themselves
on all subjects, but by Introducing frequent exer.
discs, drawn from the various business transac.
tions of the world.
Young gentlemen wishing to qualify themselves
for teaching, will receive instruction. with special
reference to that object.
The location of this Institution offers peculiar
advantages. Situated in a most healthy neigh
borhood, removed from the corrupting influences of
town. and village, and surrounded by highly re-
spectacle families, with whom board may be OBJ.
tained, this school must insure the moral, as
well as the intellectual advancement of its pupils.
TERMS-For the elementary branches: Reading,
Writing, Arithmetic, English Grammar, Geo.
graphy, &C., per session, Of five and half
months, $5 90
Fer the higher branches: including Latin.
Greek, French, the various branches Of
Mathematics, DC, &c. &l5 90
Boarding. including washing, fuel, and lights,
can be obtained at 81 IS to 81 so per week..

MoNoPoLY OF LAND We have always
been in favor of the government selling land
at the lowest cash value to actual settlers.
The principle operates like building a house
on one lot to improve the adjoining two.
Avoid engrossing land in the hands Of
few. It leads to bad consequences. The
author of PAM he, recently published in
England states, the soil of that country,
which in the year 1875 belonged TO abou,
100000 proprietors, in 1915, was owned by
about $4,000 and that there is every rea.
son to believe that the process Of accumu.
latng in the hands Of few, has been going
on with equal rapidity from 1915 to the
present time. This fact, taken in connex-
ion with the misery Of the great body OF
the population Of the country, proves the
truth Of Goldsmith's assertion
III fares that land, to Fastening ills prev
Where wealth accommodates and men decay.n
