"TAR on DE HEEL."-The Cleveland Plain
dealer, on the authority of Il Southern friend,
tells us how the saying, "Dar's bigger got
tar on his heel is used among the slaves
on plantations. He recently visited a PLAN
tation near Memphis, Tennessee. and at
night, when the darkeys' work was done they
assembled to pitch coppers. Thecents began
to disappear in a very mysterious manner
The most rigid examination revealed no clue
to them. The stock of copper haddwndled
fearfuliy, when light seemed to break on
one OF the darkeys, and he yelled, ''Dars IA
nigger got tar on his heelS!' Great confii-
sion followed the announcement, and the
darkeys commenced search n each other
violently on the ground. AT one time tuen v
aarkevs were seated on the ground. " lille
twenty morn had their legs in the airlooking
at their heels. The miscreant was at last
discovered. The black wretch, who sought
TO bring time honord game into diSrepnte.
was at last disceverd. An old negro, who
was to lote TO indulge in games. aed who had
before been (hked Caesars wite)abuve sus-
picion, had coyerd his heels with tar Under
the pretense of seeing fair play. this elderly
eoford persan had made himself cons spicnonS
among the PLAYERS. Volunteering himself as
Judge on all disputed points. and The wi biIe
the sly old coon was treating sn the copper.
Shey stuck, of course, and when his heels
were turnee mp, they revealed IA right smart
chance" of cents.

EDUCATION AMONG THE JAPANEsE.-At the
last meeting of the New York chronological
Society, Mr.. Ewbank presented the report of
the interview of the Committee with theJa-
panese. They learned that in Japan reading
and writing are almos. universal, and that
there is large Japanese literature; the cen
sorship having been established only about
fifty years ago. Their books are very cheap,
and illustrated books have been common for
ages. Trades do not descend from father to
son; men follow what profession they choose.
Wind power is not used all, water power bnt
little, and animal power only TO very small
extent, except in agricultural operations
Almost everything is done by man power
Vaccination has only recently been intro
duced. The Committee saw an illustrated
book on the quarrying and smelling of cop
per- one of a series of industrial hand books,
with which they were very much struck
They say that it conveys the knowledge it
treats of in fewer words than are used in
our prefaces or introductions, and that the
illustrations are so full and plain that the or
dinary English readers can be at no loss as
to any particular.
Fourteen pages are occupied by outline pic
lures, slightly shadedand colored, represent
ing all the details and operations from quar-
