SLATE-AMER1cAN AND FOREIGN. Ameri-
can Journal of Mining, remarks that " the use oi
American slate, as material for roofing, is compare
lively OF recent date. Formerly the quarries Of
Wales supplied the demand OF the United States,
which almost ceased with the introduction Of fiat
and tin roofs. In Great Britain however,
and, to great degree, upon the Continent,
slate has always preserved its pre-eminence as
q safe, cheap, durable and ornamental material
for roofing. In our own country, the revival Of
architectural taste, the fashion of French and
Gothic roots, and the high price Of imported tin,
have been instrumental in reviving and augment
ing the demand for slate. Wales cannot even
supply the British Kingdom; and we are thrown
back upon our own resources, which are, fortu-
nately, ample. The business Of quarrying slate
for roofing purposes, which was begun some years
ago in the United States with considerable zeal,
has suffered various vlcisstudes incident to the in
experience and lack Of judgment of the early en-
trepreneurs; but after many failures, degree oil
success has been achieved which places this in-
dustry on sound business footing Our best
roofing states are as good as those Of any other
country, and are furnished at price which rem
ders them, especially when durability is consid-
cred, cheaper, as well rs better in many other
respects, than shingles or tin. AS for pleasing,
ornamental effect, nothing can compare with q
roof of tasteiully arranged purple and green Yer
mont states.

COMPUI sorry EDUCATION.

In recent article on education in Europe, we
incidentally mentioned that this subject Of COM
pulsory education was attracting great attention
everywhere at this present time. This question
was brought before the French Senate on the 22d
of July. It was advocated strongly by M. CHEvA-
11ER. who said that there would be but two objec-
tions to the system:
First. that it would be IN interference with pa
rental authority; the second, that it would be eI-
pensive. On the first point-after noticing en-
passant that compulsion already exists to some
extent in France, inasmuch rs the law OF
manufaetories, enacts that up to the age OF
twelve they shall be constrained to attend
.school-the distinguished senator oontended that
Ms regards parents who do their duty 10 their
br the reason that they would provide instruction
vi their own accord; and that as to those who did
not discharge their duty the State had certainly
the right to compel them, for the reason that chill
dren without instruction would not grow up into
laborious, industrious and mora men, sueh q as
Cheyslier did not deny that 1t would be consider
able: but, he added ''there is no comparison as
regards the production Of wealth, between o
population which has received instruction and be-
tween one deprived Of it-between one remaining
in what Royer Colard calls the happy ignorance
Of the brute, and one whose intellectual faculties
have been developed by education, however sim
pie and restricted. One produces little, the other
PRODUCES much; one, when it has produced, may
and does make savings, that s capital, out Of its
earning; the other has not the same chance oi
doing so."
II the French should adopt good compulsory
educational system from Prussia they would have
something worth more to them than thousand
such inventions as the needle gun. Prussia has
