'lNFLUENCE OF n NEWSPAPEE.-A SCHOOL
feather who has been engaged long time in
his profession, and witnessed the influence of
a newspaper upon the minds of family of
children, writes to the editor of the Ogdcns-
burg Sentinel as follows:
have found it to be universal fact, with
out exception, that those scholars of both
sexes, and of all ages, who have had access to
newspapers ut home, when compared with
those who have not, are:
=. L.. Better readers, cxcellng in pronunciation
and emphasis, and consequently read more
,understandingly.
=. They are better spoilers, and define
words with greater ease and accuracy
3. They obtain II practical knowledge of
geography in almost half the time it requires
Others as the newspaper has made them
familiar with the location of the important
places, nations, their governments, and doings
on the globe.
4. They IRE better grammarians, for hav-
ing become SO familiar with every variety Of
style, in the newspaper, from the common
place advertisements to the finished and
classical Grafton of the statesman, they more
readily comprehend the meaning of the text,
and consequently analyzc its construction
with accuracy.
5. They write better compositions, using
better language containing more thoughts,
more clearly and commercially expressed.
6. Those young men who have for years
been readers of the newspapers, are always
taking the lead in the debating society, ex-
hibiting more extensive knowledge upon IL
greater variety of subjects, and expressing
their views with greater lluency, clearness
and correctness in their use Of language.

The safest place in u rail road train, when
in motion, has been, says the Baltimore Amer
lean, mooted point often discussed by tray
oilers In a case on trial in the New York
Courts for damages for injuries resulting
from collision, the Rail Road Company put
in as defence that the plaintiff was in the
baggage car smoking, contrary to the posted
regulations Of the Company, that they did
not profess to carry passengers safely in that
car, on account of its exposed situation, and
that if plaintiff had remained in the passenger
car, as he ought to have done, he would have
been uninjured. In answer to t!,is it was
shown by the plaintiffs attorney, by the sta
tistics of rail road accidents in England and
France, that the baggage car is us safe as any
in the train, and that the most unsafe cars are
those in the middle of the train. !

VIEWS OF. GEN. PIERCE ON PUBLIC Policy.
"A Boston correspondent of the New York
Tribune states that Gen. Pierce has ANNOUNCE
ed views of policy by no means discreditablc
to him, and has signifcd his desire and deter
mination to administer the Government upon
national rather than partizan grounds. The
same Writer adds:
aUpon one thing Of importance he has cx-
pressed decided views; these are, that the tariff
question should be taken out Of party politics
md be settled upon Il satisfactory basis, by
the yielding of extreme views upon all sides.
The Senatorial Committee on the Revenue
Frauds, appointed at the last session, consist
ing of Gen. James, Gen. Shields, and Mr.
Bright, have lately been here, and of course
visited the President elect. That committee
will not report in favor of any revision of the
tariff ut this session. 1t is not unlikely, how
ever, that Mr. Pierce will, in his inaugural add
dress, intimate the opinions we have here
ascribcd to him, and forcshadow the policy
indicated by the declarations to which we
lave alluded" .--.r
