sas question is out of the Senate, for the
present. We hope the House viii soon

ten and fraud; evil spirits Of the north and
south are so mixed up that the devil him.
self could not strike a balance between
them, and the sooner some drain is opened
the better. If the LeconptOn constitution
will dry it up, pass it; If the Topeka con.
s.itutien will do the same, pass it-anythins
to rid the country Of the question, and the
rascals that keep up agitation, even though
it be temporary. The talk about legality ant
fairness, connected with Kansas politics, i,
the sheersst humbug Of the day, and ever,

the celebrated Glasgow teacher, says:
The separation has been found injurious.
It Is impossible to raise the girls as high,
intellectually, without the boys as with Them;
aud it is impossible to raise boys morally as
high without girls. The girls morally
elevate the boys, and the boys intellectually
elevate the girls. But more than this, girls
themselves are morally elevated by the pre-
sencs Of boys. and the boys are intellectually
elevated by the presence Of girls. Boys
brought up with girls are made more
positively intellectual by the ssoftenieg in
