Names of Colleges.

A large number of our colleges have re-
ceived their names from prominent men who
have literally endowed them. A great
many bear the name Of the town or State in
which they are situated. We have looked
up the following Of some Of tie most promi-
nent Of our country:
Harvard College was named after John
Harvard, who, in 1888, left to the college
ERE and library Of over 400 books.
Williams College after Colonel Ephriam
Williams, a soldier of the French war.
Dartmouth 'ollees after Lord Dartmouth,
who subscribed q large amount, and " a.
president Of the first board Of trustees.
Brown University received its name from
Hon. Nicholas Brown, who was graduate Of
the college, went into business, became very
wealthy, and endowed the college very
largely.
Columbia College was called Kings Col
lege till the close Of the war for indepen-
dence, when it received the name Of
Columbia.
Bowdoln College was named after Coy
ernor Bowdoin Of Maine.
Yale College after Elihu Yale, who made
very liberal donations to the college.
Colby University, formerly Waterville
College, was named after Mr.. Gardener @ OIL
by Of Boston, who gave $50, 900 to the col
lege in 1866.
Dickinson College received it's name from
Hon. John Dickinson He made o very
liberal donation to the college, and was pres-
dent Of the board Of trustees for . number
of years.

Somstimes the remark 4 made lhAt Q sub

BY chemical action, in ell the batteries, have
first 10 be smelted by means OF the heat Of
coal, ami ia the different induction machines,
such as Wilds's, for the production Of cleo.
tricity, the driving power Is deriy ID from
coal. A letter from Prof. Tyndall now be-
fore him (the lecturer) said that be saw No
prospect OF any other large source Of heat
and power besides coal, and when that q
gone we cannot hold our own against othe-
nations. He (Prof Tyndal) had stated over
and over again in his lectures, that the future
prospects Of Great Britain are more In the
hands of its coal owners han in the hands
Of It's statesmen. When coal Is gone, the
heat Of the sun an& the motion OF the tides
are the principal sources Of power remain
ing.
Few. said Mr.. Jeyons, have attempted ia
form sn opinion as to The full meaning OF
the falling off Of our supply Of coal. The
increase OF national wealth depends upon
the increase in the consumption Of coal, 50
that when the latter declines, the national
life win be shortened. Then the progress Of
the nation will gradually cease, employment
viii become scarce, and migration will sci
in TO a larger extent There IL Q possibility
that Great Britain will be thus stopped 10
100 years from this date, but many other ma
tions, especially the United States, viii fee
no such check. Yet in 80 or 100 years Goa
will have become even more Indispensable
than it is now. What shall We do Shall
we lay tax upon coal Shall we stop I'll

He did not see that we bad any right t.
DO either Of these things. Mr.. John Stuart
Mill, the great political economist Of the age
says, that while thinking OF the loss Of coal
we ought TO connect with it the fact Of thu
national debt. Surprising coihery pro-
prietor to be heavily in debt. and to possess
the knowledge that in the course OF years
his mines would be exhausted, he would q
once begin to capitalize. The British natioL
ought to do the same and try and pay of
its debt in the days of prosperity. MIR
JevOns thought this course should be taker
also; better still that the population OF tn
country should be thoroughly educated &
understand these and other vital questions
and to get rid Of those laws and other causes
which now produce pauperism thus d
thought the public would be better prepared
than at present for the days Of trouble. II
must not be forgotten that Mr.. Jevons' con.
clusions are stoutly disputed by many hIgi
authorities. Mr.. Jevons over-estimates on

Thus in twelve years the consumption Of
coal has advanced Tapidiy, and IN all direc-
tons il Is easy to see how that consumption
tends 20 increase. Small engines, among
ether things, are daily creeping more into
use, and lie thocght it likely that the CIV
was not far distant when nearly every house
Nould have its own little gas engine to work
{ sewing machine, or TO assist in other house
hold matters. In agriculture there 10 a grow
Jog demand for steam power, which is also
ssnted Tor hydraulic purposes, for the water
therein used II commonly pumped up by
steam. No engines give the full amount OF
mechanical power contained in burning coal
but even the economizing Of coal, strange to
say, tends to increase the consumption, foI
steam power becomes cheaper the less coal
rue ergIne consumes, thus Increasing the de-
nsnd Tor machine power. In common fire
crates vast amount Of heat is wasted, and
sots up the chimney without doing any good
81 all this waste be hoped to see stopped to
very great extent.
Upon examination Of the government re.
turns il is seen that trade tends 70 increase
in geometrical and not in arlthmetlcal pro-
Fession, and the increase in the consump-
ton Of coal follows the same law, which ap-
Try. The yearly increase in the consumption
Of coal shows q tendency 10 follow tnis law,
at which rate Of progression the store Of Goa
ID the United Kingdom, instead Of lasting
SOC years, Is likely 10 be used up in small
l.~ction cf that time. Like the problem Of
the nails in the horses shoe in the arith-
Notebook, figures mount up in q most sur.
prisiug manner under the system Of geomet
ricai progression.
The quantity Of coal sent out from Eng.
and fer several centuries has steadily fol.
Owed this law. In another twelve years
therefore, the annual demand for British
coal 10 likely to reach ,000, 100000 tons, a

Lonc months back, and WIS much ridiculed
for giving such high figures. He did no,
believe that the coal fields Of Great Britain
could produce 1000, 000,0 600 tons wear
and il this be the fact, industry and trade
cannot progress here in the future as IN the
pat. Temporary depressions make a diff
ference in the produce, and 1868 might
shoW falling of IN the coal trade in the
same way as in 1855 compared with 1854
but such disturbing Influences are only tran.
sent. lie did not doubt that there is eoal
al greater depth than 1900 feet, but the
supply OF It will be scanty, and the cost Of
raising i very heavy.
Lord Russell once sent circular letter Ia
the corsuls TO send home figures about the
supply Of coal in different foreign countries.
The totals are here given as accurately a
possible:

Steadily, yet slowly, says the Americdn
Artisan, is the advancing state Of mechanical
progress tending to higher step of perfec-
ton. The days of slip shod work are nearly
passed, and the demise Of nshobby work, =
especially in machinery, may be confidently
predicted as being close at hand. The de-
mechanical products, but for the very best
that the artisan is capable Of presenting in
the market; the reliable machines, good me-
chanical appliances and the best quality OF
manufactured goods are now eagerly sought
and willingly paid for. Ii needs but little
observation to convince any person that the
demand for cheapened goods, when chcaf
ness involves an inferior quality, 10 the ak
ception rather than the rule. This demand
for superior products began first with want
of better tools, and has now become 20 ex-
tended that it ramifes among all classes Of
manufactures and the great aim OF the ar
tisan is now two fold--frst, to cheaper pro-
ceases and, second, to produce better arti-
cles by the cheapened processes.
To cheaper product two methods are re-
sorted to, one Of which 10 to accelerate the
operations necessary to its manufacture, and
the other to substitute cheaper material in
SONS Of its component parts. The latter Is
hazardous, lnasmuch NJ ID deteriorates its
vaide and is liable to soon bring il into dis
repute, and consequent loss BY diminution
Of sales would be the result As this might
prove fatal to the manufacturer, ii IL seldom
resorted to, aud the demand for cheapsning
il generally met by attempts 10 aceelefats or
dispense with some operations, either by the
use OF better tools or OF automatic working
machines, which may be profitably substi-
tuted, dispensing with hand labor. These
are the only means which, generally speak
ing, can be employed with success. We
would advise al mechanics to act upon these
Suggestions. The ted IL layt ., and there h

ances.

by which mother may curse her child, and
that is by Reglecting its moral education. Ma
