liam Stafford, accidentally shot Mr.. David Rea, in
Shelby township, Ia. The circumstances are these
Mr. Rea, the day previous, had been into the woods
and killed three wild turkeys On going home,
he related his good success to Mr.. S., and told him
the vicinity in which he killed them The next
morning about daylight, they both repaired to the
place-nelther knowing the design of the other Mr.
Rea got upon the ground first, concealed himself BY
the side of log, and commenced squalling, in imi-
tation of the turkey, by blowing through an nstru-
ment made for that purpose. Mr. s. being short
dlstapce off, heard him, and looking in the direction
oil the noise, saw Mr.. Rea's head rising above the
log. Surprising it 10 be turkey, he took deliberate
ann, and shot him in the head, producing instant

abominable compromises of the last Congress, which
they endorse. We enough of their spirit, in the

There was too much of genuine democracy in that
convention, for any string of ''National' resolutions
to neutralize, however long it might be; and though
the resolutions may stand. and the bunker newspa-

ELEMENTARY STUDIES IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS
The Newburyport Herald states the fact, that of
one hundred applicants for admission to the English
High School in that city, at the recent examination,
only forty admitted and remarks upon the fol-
y of negecting the solid substratum of elementary
studies, for supersructure too heavy for what is I'M
der 1t. The necessary consequence must be a cave
in at some time. In the Report of the annual ex-
animation of the Boston schools, for 1916, the evil
is significantly pointed out by the chairman of the
committee, Mr.. John Goldman, who says:
In many, we believe in most of the schools, not
one slate that examined, was without mistakes.
and upon an average, throughout the city, not more
than half the words proposed, were spelled correct
| ly. Such result is dlscreditabe There surely
can be no good scholarship where this primary ele-
ment in education is neglected or deficient We
would recommend increased attention on the part of
the teachers to this branch of instruction, as it is Of
| far more importance than the snowy accomplish
| ments lii drawing, and experiments in philosophy
which are sometimes exhibited proofs of the pro-
gress Of a school.
Whist, then, is the cause, it will be asked of the
deficiencies complained Of We believe it to be this
that too much is attempted in the present course
| OF instruction. The schools are departing too much
Hou THEIR oFl5hd character OF grammar and writing
schools, while the capacities Of the pupils, and the
time that they are privileged to attend schools, re-
main the same
We fear that those who are most earnest in the
demand for continued progress, will condemn this
avowal as narrow and illiheral, and as showing a
disposition to go backward in the career of improve
ment. 1t may be SO, but we cannot believe that any
real advantage is gained in the cause of education
by so multiplying the subjects of study TO the minds
of children, that in order to acquire any knowledge
OF them all, their instruction in all must be superb
clal. Thorough instruction in and thorough knowl
edge of, reading, grammar, spelling, writing, and
arithmetic, will make better scholars and better
members of society, than partial acquaintance with
the other branches of course of Instruction if il
IS to be gained by any neglect of those which we
have first mentioned.
of course, history and geography must not be ne.
elected, and there is time enough to study them bu
they are not subjects Of primary elementary impor
lance IN education. We would have more time de-
voted to the elementary branches we have enumera
ted, and the consequence would be- that pupils VIII,
are thoroughly instructed in them would enter upor
the higher course Of education with greater ease, anc
lar greater power Of progress and Improvement
A child cannot be expected to study history to adj
vantage, to whom reading is an effort. 1t will be o.
little advantage TO him to investigate the geography
and peculartes of foreign countries, until he has
learned to speak his own language with purity and
correctness.

massachusetts in Ruins,

The editor Of the North Adams Transcript saws that
Massachusetts is in ruins that she is in sackcloh that
her honor droopeth, and that the sum Of her glory is
ecipsed This is doefu picture to draw of the Old
Bay State and it would be most startling and lament
able one, if there was single word of it true. But it
is merely freak Of the Wing imagination it is one of
those pictures ofthe night, which who have supped
upon Michigan pork and Vermont cheese, are apt TO
behold while nightmare sits stradded on their necks
and fills their hearts with baseess terrors 1t is really
nothing than the toleul shape which Wing cha
grin has taken in view their merted expulsion from
the government of the State, and in the assurance Of
their continuance in "opposton.''
Massachusetts is nat in sackcloth; although the bell
weathers of Whiggery say So The dear old lady
wears handsome robe of green and russell, spanged
with beautiful flowers, and the smile upon her face
might revive the dropping spirits of a Hunker Wing,
ii he had any Of beauty in his abject soul Her
honor droopeh not, although Daniel Webster soug
betray and prostitute her the slave power of the
Sa.,ii. and 4hanah -HaiIei uaung I.unt {,
Essex, and Augerhole Byrns, sought to offer her up
upon the altar Of Mammon.
And the sun of Massachusetts is not eclpsed, al
though G. N Briggs has been constrained to hang ou
his sign once in Pitsfeld, and has betaken him
seto writing last wills and tesaments instead of at
tachng his signature enactnens passed by the votes
Of Hunker Wings.
is generally believed that the ruin of States is gra-
duative and not Immediately that the dropping of the
State "honor, and the eclipse of Irrational Suns are
preceded by causes which have their origin either in
the cupabe ignorance dishonesty of those, to whom
confded the direction Of State affairs and the future
destinies Of the people The Wings have governed
Massachusetts, almost since she was a State. To
the Wings entrusted the establishment and con-
sodation OF institutions and it certainly reflects
