1t appears, from q Northern contemporary, that
the anxiety of parents to secure the rapid progress
of their children while at School, has led to the
adoption, in many Of the Northern Cities of "for
cling" process, altogether beyond the capacity of
majority of the pupils, and believed to be very in
furious to their physical we'll being Not content
with the severe tasks of the secular weeks. the
same rigid rule Is extended to Sunday, not only
without reason, but In opposition to every estab.
lished principle of jud'cious culture. correspon-
dent gives the following of the Sunday reg.

BETWEEN SIXTY AND SEVENTY HORSES BURNED.
About IL O'Clock on Saturday night, fire broke
ont in the extensive stables of the Brooklyn City Kan
road Company, situated on Thrty-sixth street. near
Fourth avenue, opposite the entrance To GREENWOOD
Cemetery. The private watchman employed by the
Company saw two men prowing around the building
lust before the fire broke out and gave chase to them
but did rot succeed in catching them. His attention
was Gale TO the fire while he was in pursuit OF the
men and he returned to e1tinguish the flames. lie
discovered fire issuing from tbre places, and the
flames had obtained such Roadway as to render 1t
impossible to extinguish them. The buildings were
frame. Thev were erected by Messrs. Whitson X
Oakley. and were formerly occupied as stage stables
by them When the Brooklyn City Railroad Com
pany went into operation they were purchased by
them and have been occupied by them since. The
budince were entirely destroyed and all efforts on the
part the Fire Department were unavailiag. But one
engine arrived on the ground in time to get at work.
The stables contained quantity Of hay, straw and
feed as well as 167 horses All efforts to save the
horses were nearly hopeless; as fast as they were
token out of danger they rushed back again into the
stables. Between sixty and seventy horses were
burned to DEATH and the remainder saved with much
difficulty. The horses destroyed would average IN
value about $l25 each. They were all employed on
the Greenwood line Of cars, and were considered the
most valuable Of any the roads, The total loss Isl
on horses, $780, on stables s., 600; on contents,
81 ,OCO total 1000. The entire loss is covered by
Insurance, the principal part of which is in the Mon
tauk Insurance Company, the Fulton and Phenix
Companies. The Company intended to have erected
new range of stables this Fall ard will now proceed to
do 90 inmed ately. A cite has been selected on Third
avenue and brick stables will be put up. The rear Of
the stables joined woodpe, and it was at this place
that the fire was discovered. The peraon who was
seen to run away from the building was dressed like
sailor, ard the Waterman pursued him thinking he
bad been stealing None of the other vehicles
were destroyed as they were kept outside upon the
tracks. In consequence Of this fire there was great
walt of accommo dation this line yesterday, but
few cars being run.
