Physical Education.

The Importance of a larger amount of
physical education, and of less time de-
voted to purely mental training, is well
emphasized by Mr.. Edwin Chadwick, in
his papers contributed to the recent Blue
Books on Education:
Mr. Chadwick states that the present
practice of long hours of teaching is a
wide cause of enervation and predisposi-
ton to disease, and induces also habits of
listlessness and dawdling. The half-tme
system is found to. give nearly, if not
quite, as good education as the whole
time, and common sense tells us that a
boy who acquired the same amount of
knowledge in half the time of another
boy, must have obtained proportionate-
ly superior habit of mental activity. It
is this alertness, combined with the bodi-
ly aptitudes created by drill, that gives
the comparatively stunted boys of the
town 3 preference over the strong, robust
lads from the coast. Good schoolmas-
tiers say that about three hours day are
as long as bright, voluntary attention
Oh the part Of children can be secured
and that in that period may be taught as
much as they can receive; all beyond
the profitable limit is waste. Hence it is
urged that PAL Of the present long school
hours be devoted to gymuastic exercises
or drill, as part Of the system Of e2uca-
ton, or that the half time system be more
adopted. Drill is very strongly recon
mended by many eminent men, who give
their testimony in these papers. 1t i'm
proves the health, the carriage, the man
ners, even the character; sharpens the
attention, gives habits of obedience,
promptncss, regularity and self-restraint.
" | should consider "a youth of double
value" says Mr.. Whitworth, "who has
had the training of the nature of drill ;
he attends to commands he keeps every
thing he has to do with in a high state of
cleanliness; defects are corrected, and
special qualifications brought out" owe
find the drilled men very superior. SAYS
Mr. Fairbain, "They are constantly in
readiness for the protection of the coun-
try" writes Lieut.. Gen Shaw Kennedy.
Men are frequently required" says Mr..
II. Rawlinson, c. H., "fto use their
strength in concert, for which they must
have confidence in one another. ] have
frequently seen trained men weed out
unskillod men where heavy lifting has
been required, because they dared not
risk the danger arising from unskilcd
strength"

The interests now lmperiled ia the South
west are, in the eye Of statesman, far
more important than the safety of Wash
ington. If the rebellion should be sue
cessful, we should never continue the
national capital on the frontier where it
would be constantly liable TO menace and
the worst that would result from its fall
now (aside from tho loss of prestige)
would be the loss of MARYLAND, whose
Southern sympnthies cause il to gravitate
toward the Slaveholding Confederacy.-
But !be success Of the rebels in Missouri
would, in case the rebellion is successful.
entail the loss Of cur whole magnificent
western domain, extending from the
right bank of the Mississippi to the coast
Of the Pacific.
The State Of Missouri is the key TO an
embryo empire. It's detection to tho
Confederates would lose us all the fruits
of Jeiierson's craftsmanship in the Lou
isana purchase, all the rich territorial
fruits Of the Mexican war, and the whole
Of Oregon, for a mere strip Of which wo
were ready to 60 10 war with England
fifteen years ago, when the popular cry
was "lilty-four forty or fight" 1t would
end tho great political controversy re-
specting the non-extension Of slavery,
BY giving up to the enemy every foot of
the territory so long in dispute. 1t would
complete the circle Of the national quar-
rel on the slavery question, by bringing
it around to tho point where it COM
menced in 1919, and cause the success
Of the South in the admission Of Missouri
as a slave State to eliminate in the greater
success Of its withdrawal, carrying with
it all the territory which rendered that
famous controversy 50 important. -New

A SERMON FOR THE TIMES.

Rev. II. L. u. Pratt, of st. Mary's
Church, Staten Island, New York, re-
Gently preached from the following text I:
GENESIS xiii. 3, Diet there be no strife, |
pray thee, between me and thee, nor between
my herdsmen and thy herdsmen, for we be
brethren. is not the whole world before thee2
Separate thyself pray thee from me.
The reverend gentleman, in truthful
and able language, sets forth the causes
and origin oe the present difficulties os
arising from the uncharitableness, self
righteousness and unfraternal conduct of
majority of the Northern people, and
proceeds:
1t is, in short, the fanatical outpour-
ings Of the pulpit, the press, the poIiti-
cal speakers, and the lecture rooms, which
have made such widespread mischief be-
tween the two portions of the common
country. 1t is this misdireotcd interest
which teaches so many to mind not their
own affairs, but ever TO be reaching forth
and meddling with tho things Of others.
Busy bodies" whom St-Paul clnssed
among the worst troubles Of society,"
1t is this exercise Of zeal, not temper
ed by discretion nor patience, which has
famed the fame Of discord, and ombit-
tered the hearts Of brethren.
What is to be the result Of these intes-
tine troubles2 How shall the cloud that
threatens our tranquility be removed p
u is the special object of this days SER
vice to seek Gods succor and grace to
provide way Of deliyerance. We have
seen how vain is the help Of man" in
