EDUCATION or GIRLS. The subject of
physical education is beginning to attract at
tentlon' The following remarks are from the
boston Courier, written by the editor after
having attended a school festival in Paneuil
Hall
but there was one thing we noticed which
did throw little shadow over our thoughts.
We stood on the platform, very near the boys
and girls, as they passed by to receive
bouquet at the hands of the Mayor, We
could not help observing that not one girl in
ten had the air and look of good health.
There were very many lovely countenances-
lovely with an expression of intellect and
goodness-hut they were ike fair flowers
resting upon fragile stalk. Narrow chests,
round shoulders, meager forms, pallid cheeks
were far too common. There was a general
want IN their movements of the buoyant vi
vacity of youth and childhood. The heat of
the day and nervous exhaustion of the occa-
SION were to be taken into account, and due
allowance should be made for them, But
TINS was not the first time that we were fore
ed to the conclusion that here in Boston. in
the education of girls. the body is lamentably
neglected. And it is a very great and serious
neglect, the consequence of which will not
end with the sufferers themselves. OF what
nse Is 1t to learn all sorts of things during
the HFsI sixteen years OF life, and to stuff the
brain with all kinds of knowledge, if the

to be blown out by puff of wind or extn-
guished by a dash of rain.
of the destiny of women were to be put
under glass and looked at, like flower, it
would be of little consequence; but woman
must take her part in performing the duties
and sustaining the burdens of life. These
young medical scholars, in due time, will mar
ry men whose lot it is to earn their bread by
some kind of toll, in which their wives must
needs aid them. To this service they will
bring an intelligent capacity and a conscien-
tious purpose; but how far will these go
without health and the cheerful spirits which
health gives A sickly wife is no helpmate,
but hndermate. If we neglect the body, it
will have its revenge. And are we not doing
this Are we not throwing our whole edu-
cauonal force upon the brain ? Is not a
healthy city-born and bred woman getting to
be as rare as a black SWAMI And is it not
time to reform this altogether? Is it not time
to think something of the casket as well as

DUTCH SETTLEMENT IN BoRNEo-The
Hague journals state that company has sub
mitted to the Dutch government a PROPOSE
ton for establishing an agricultural settlement
on large scale on the northwest coast of Bor-
neo. The object of the company is to rein
force the European element in the Indian Ar
chipelago, and to spread the Christian relig-
ION SO as to arrive at the extinction of canni-
ballsm at Borneo and Sumatra. The settle
ment, besides, would counterbalance that Of
oaraWak, and enable the projects OF the Eng
fish government and of the adventures of
that nation to be opposed. The capital to be
raised is 100000 forms, to be increased, if
necessary, to 5000, 1000 forms. At the out
set, 1t Is proposed to employ Dajac, Chinese,
Javanese, and Malais laborers, but afterwards
to procure Europeans. The company intends
to establish Its headquarters at Amsterdam,
and to have three directors.

CHANGE AT NIAGARA FALLs.-Another
change has occurred at Niagara Falls. The
road to determination Point" has fallen away.
The Hamilton (Ca.] Spectator. says Tier
mination Point may yet exist, but no mortal
being can visit it. 1t never could be seen
from the shore end of the cavernous tunnel
one eide rock, the other water, and the floor
a composition of both-which led thither.
And the path to it is now cut off. The road
along which one used to grope has fallen
away. One can still walk about a yard un-
der the cataract, but then the hardest and
most courageous must pause, no further foot
hold being afforded, and another step would
lead one to an intimate acquaintance which
1t is here forbidden US to know. Ere long,
doubtless, now that tie stratum of soft rock
below has fallen and been pounded into clay,
the upper mass will fell. And then another
step will have been taken in the slow and te-
dious course in which Niagara has eaten it's
own way back from Queenstown, and is, if
biologists say true, to wear itself away some-
where above Chippewa.
