Goddess Schools.

Where most of all our schools fail is in
moral instruction. The charge that they
are goddess schools is to great extent
just and true. Go into the neighborhood of
any of them when the boys are at play about
the doors, and one might doubt whether the
scholars knew the name of Jehovah except
to swear by. The profanity is shocking,
such as is heard nowhere else on the face of
the earth. There is not Mohammedan or
heather land where the moral culture, &C
cording to their standard, is so low, or where
such ntterances would be permitted by the
civil authorities. The other day an Irish
man passing a group of school boys and
overhearing their language, said-"This is
what comes of Professionalism
We wish it was confined to protestant
children; but unfortunately it is MOTTO the
children of any church or any sect or class
within church. 1t is time, however, that
all should give the subject attention, and
that school committees should feel that the
limit Of their Office is not simply to appoint
teachers of sufficient literary qualifications,
but men and women are needed of moral
power in the schools and that teachers
should feel that the end of their duties is not
to hear pupils recite, or to whip them when
they disobey the rules, but in its fullness il
is to fit them for good society, and the du-
ties of coming years, and train them TO vir-
tue in what of life remains. -Neacbia-yport

A Trick Of the Turf.

Readers who are not familiar with racing
practices, and who read with ineredulous
amazement the records of q speed 80 marve-
lleus as that of Dexter and Ethan Allen, the
.unrivalled trotters, will feel their wonder
abate, perhaps, when they are told OF the
astratagem by which this seeming miracle Is
accom- plished.i tsrele@a aq
The fact is, that the space got over ~ nth the
brief time announced by the trothng cham
pions, is not at al the, actual measure OF
their fair and individual powers. On some
of these occasions each of the trotters has a
running horse harnessed by his side to the
shaft fthe sulky, apparently for the mere
sake Of encouragement, but the arrangement
of the hitching apparatus is SO ingeniously
contriyed, that the runner is, in reality, able
to lift or help the trotter along by the supe-
rior rapidity of his gait, and thus increase
the actual speed of the latter considerably.
The time of Ethan Allen, in his successful
raceagainst Dexter the other day, was thus
increased, it is supposed, by several Sec
onds.
This is, of course, done openly and with
knowledge and consent of all parties, and so
far as the result of the race is concerned, is
as fair for one horse as the other. Bot it
certainly creates false estimate of the real
rate Of speed capable of being attained by
an unasSisted trotter.-N. 7. Erenaag Post.

Incidents of Travel.

The late journey of the President to North
Carolina afforded opportunity for instruction
and amusement, as one or two incidents il
Illustrative of the condition of the south, rel
ated by one of the distinguished party, will
exemplify. At Chapel Hill, n. c., mem
Der of the cabinet accompanied by Col.
Moore, the Presidents private secretary,
were enjoying an evening walk, when they
encountered hitherto bondman, who thus
accosted them =
Gentlemen, excuse me, but / am looking
for Gen. Sickles; viii you please tell me
where to find him 2" " Is.
ave are strangers here" replied one of
the party, "and cannot direct YOU But YOU
can easily learn by asking some resident"
wen, I'll tell you how it is, boss" said
the seeker after knowledge, 81 live in: the
country, and have been planting corn, and
the crows. they pub it all up. An you see
we amt allowed to cary no. firearms, here,
an | can't shoot the crows. Now, l want to
see Gen. Sickles an git an order to shoot de
crows" - - 3 --F
You are right, my friend said the cabi-
net ministers. 'Y on have no right to shoot
the crows without an order The crows are
under the care of congress, and they pull up
your corn by virtue of legal enactment. But
Gen. Sickles is greater than congress, and
he can give you permission to shoot them. y
And the man departed in search of militia
ry authority to grow corn.
AT Richmond two members of the cabinet
hired colored hackman to drive them
about the city, in order that they might see
the notable places. One of them is a friend
of Gen. Hobart, who was confined in Libby
Prison, and he wanted to see the holf
through which he made his escape. The
hackman was bright, intelligent man, ane
greatly aided the sight-seekers in the graft
tication of their curiosity. He showed them
various objects of interest, and at last cam.
to the house occupied by the president ofthe
'late so-called confederate states

The man was right. He innocently loca

to place it, but he is probably quite uncon
scious of the trouble his auditors have sine
had concerning the men who have charge o

merely sxcupulated the President from an
interference in the matter of securing bail

WASHINGTON CORRESPONDENTS.

The Chicago Journal publishes letter
from Washington, dated July 9Th, from
which we make the following extracts
The effort of the two Moguls, Mr.. Sumner, in
the senate, and Mr.. Stevens, in the house, to linz
il the present session TO the enactment of an
amendatory reconstruction act meets with strong
opposition. Every one is surprised that either
of these men, who have blown their horns so ex-
tensively and so loudly, the oneIin favor OF uni
Yersal saffrage in the loyal states by a"short cut
policy, the other for a confscation Of the large
landed estates Of leading and wealthy rebels,
should now be the foremost ones to limit the SEES
sion to certain business, and to exclude the con-
sideration of the very subjects, the res gest@ of
the rebellion, rs they believe, and which they
sert is the duty Of congress to enact without de-
lay.
The correspondent then proceeds to q
just castigatien of the radical portion of his
party, and says 5..s
Outside of this junta of fanatics and polit-
ical fools, such as Ashley, Boutwell,. Butler, and
Ingersoll, Of Illinois, and few other insignif-
cant followers, the almost universal sentiment of
congress is against impeachment. First, howev-
derogatory party measures may have been
the acts of the President, they deny that they
such grevous political sins criminal in their ma
tnre as to warrant the impeachment. Second
that the object of the radical party can be far
moro easily obtained by restrictive legislation
the presidential powers than it can by any semi
revolutionary proceeding; that the former course
is expected by the country, and will be acquiesc-
ed in, while the latter would surely create reac-
ton in public sentiment, and persecution would,
out of mere sympathy, gather about him great
party of friends Third, that the great mass of
the people are opposed to it, and that congress
has no right to prejudice the opinion of the Am
erican people, or to manufacture vicious public
sentiment among the people and, fourth, that
such trial would result in no good-that it
would fail in its purpose and cover with shame
those engaged in it, while, than all, it would
delay other and far more important measures,
such as revision of the tariff, the revenue and
Indian affairs. The impeachment scheme may,
therefore, be considered monster humbug, po-
litical abortion, clustering threat, thoroughly
discountenanced by every sensible And
one thing is remarkable it has never had a
friend with one or two exeeptions1 save those
who heretofore have been rfre-eating democrats
thus exemplifying the old saying that new con-
verts always the most ultra, and go to ex-
trayagant lengths to prove their devotion.
Ehe letter closes with long reference to
the Surratt trial, and says "The defence
have forty-six witnesses to examine SO it
is evident the trial will be prolonged full
month yet"

How SOME THINGS ARE DOVE IN Boston.
A western man gives an interesting ae.
count of his experience at Boston hotel un-
der the anti-liquor law:
Guest arrives at his favorite hotel, and
applies at the bar in the basement behind
which stands, as usual, suave attendant
for glass of whisky. s
"Can sell you nothing to drink at this bar,
you mean to say can't get nothing
to drink"
"Perhaps you had better apply at the lunch
counter, opposite, sir" .a.rea
The guest, rather annoyed, crosses the
room and repeats his request.
s"We can only give you lunch, sir. Have
q sandwich ?" = fas
The truth beginning to dawn upon the
bewildered occidental, he assents and orders
a sandwich obtains his whisky or whatever
drink his fancy prefers, with that modest
Wand enjoys his perpendicular drink, and
probably leaves his sandwich untouched, to
be sold to dozen customers like himself in
succession, each, however, paying an extra
FIVE cents for the slice of meat, bread and
butter, as a tribute to the majesty of the law
