R. Brooks, accompanying him, were assaulted in
Monroe County, Arkansas, on the 24th instant.
Kinds was killed and Brookswounded. The Dem
ocrat, Republican paper, has a dispatch attrib-

q Democratic paper, has dispatch representing
that Kinds had split the Radical party, and at;
tributes his death to Radical opponents, # indeed
the report be true. 1t says, further, 'The effort
to fix the assassination on the Democrats will be
fruitless, because they had more to gain by Kinds
living than dead. '-,,,. 4.. -. .-.. ......... .,

- A new and not unimportant reform is abou
to be introduced in German schools, VIZ: the abo
ltion of all afternoon classes. It was principally
during the past summer months that the expert
ment was almost forced uponthe authorities. Tht
results are on all sides reported to have been more
than brilliant. The forenoon classes are somewhat
but not much, longer than formerly, but it is said
that the pupils show an eagerness and vigor ii
those short morning hours which have never beer
known before, and their progress is quite in keep
ing with their keen and energetic assidaity: Tht
most curious point about the matter, says the Pal
Mall Gazette, seems to be the fully authenticated
fact that the schools having hitherto only closee
experimentally earlier or later, according to the
wishesof the respective head-masters, the progress
shown by the various schools stands in an inverse
ratio to the duration of the classes in othel
words the less hours beyond the four or five of the
morning in school, the more did the boys get on
with their work
