LORD STANLEY ON EDUCATIoN.

From the NJ y. Tribune. . ......
The noble address delivered by Lord Stanley,
on occasion of taking his seat as Lord Rector of
the University of Glasgow, deserves more notice
than il is likely to receive from the impatient,
impetuous minds of our people. Alarge audience
listened with untiagging interest to the reading
of it, in the City Hall, where the inaugural cere-
monies were held. The interest may be in part
accounted for by the fact that the hearers were
mainly University men, and that the speaker was
a Lord But the substance of the address, un-
tainted by either of these considerations, was
sound, and earnest, and good for all people-for
our people, as well as the Queens-tor republi-
cans as well as royalists. Coming from man
who had enjoyed the advantages OF the best
education, and tasted the fruits OF the highest
culture--a man OF affairs too, and q man OF the
World-its most remarkable feature is its deep
sincerity, its digni6ed and almost pathetic
humility. Lord Stanley treats OF education as
tho matter of profound human concern that 1t
is-as a matter that more than all touches
character personal integrity intrinsic value of
work the welfare of the mind. This aspect of
the subject is one that we should more deepiy
consider than we do. Education Is commended
as a ready means of obtaining reputation or
position: but the education that is pursued for
that end will fail of bestowing It's GROWING
blessing, which is mental power and peace. III
is lauded as qualification Tor pracIlcal aiIalrs,
an available and indisputable chest OF tools Tor
the merchant, the engineer, the artisan, even
the farmer whose harvest will be the richer Tor
the pains expended on the soil; but the education
thatis sought in this spirit will be loose, careless,
promiscuous, incomplete, inaccuracies mass OF
miscellaneous half knowledge that dissipates
and emasculates the mind Incidence is bad,
but SO is haste. Limitation is dangerous, but so
is tumble. Pedantry is an evil, but so is vague
ness and confusion If methodical training
tends to stiffness of intellect, absence of all
trainings tends TO windiness and conceit, 10 the
easy writing which is the most Improbable
reading TO faclle talking which is a perilling
snare TO swift theorzing which is imposition,
and to hurried thinking which is simply nc

Judgment, is TO put minds be they large OF

SHAM RECOMMENDATIONs mo- OFrICE

From the n. y. Times.
- We have been told that of the twenty-one
Senators who had endorsed General Piles appli-
cation for the mission TO Brazil, no less than fue
voted against his confirmation; and now an Ohio
Congressman, to whom had been forwarded

is said to have received soon after ''confdentian
letters from no less than twenty-five of the three
hundred endorsers, informing him that their can
didale was not fit for the place" to which they
themselves had recommended her.
Could there be more shameful commentary
on the whole system of giving recommendations
to office? While twenty-five out of three hun
dred indorsers retracted their words, how many
of the remaining two hundred and seventy-fVe
were sincere in their action? The difference
was probably this, that while the former had
some compunctions of conscience, the latter
were too careless TO give the matter any thought
at all. How many OF these Senators who voted
against Mr.. Ashley's confirmation had previously
encouraged him by word or by signature! How
many of those huge bound volumes" of in
dorsements which are or have been on file ut
Washington are anything but shams If the
names were all checked and graded like the
secret business directories OF mercantile credit,
what proportion of them would be responsible

The whole system of appointment has come to
De fraud and disgrace. But while, on the

WASHRTRNF

From the ~ y. WOrld
The EUening Post has at last awakened to the
reality of the acts of Mr. Washburne, which the
World published day or two after he was
driven out of the State Department, and touches
the critical point of the whole affair. which is
the responsibility of Grant. Did any President
ever before conceive or tolerate the idea of pros
tituting the State Department to feed the vanity
of a personal favorite? Would or could any
body but Grant have been capable of sending to
the Senate nomination for that office. upon
trade that the nominee should decline the COM
mission
Grant to dispI9ce Wnsbburpe ot once and with
him all that WashbuIne put in place" But
that would include displacement of Grant
himself!

hoped for venison in the Collectors office of the

The arrant mutton of an appraisership. II is not
dscreditable to the digestion OF Dana that his
gastric Juices refused TO work on the imposture.

he resents the ill-treatment as promptly and as

is concerned, it is to be noted that he has con-

was coming to Washington to tender to him q
courteous resignation of the place. And now he
has humiiatcd benefactor by offering him this
position in the face of the knowledge that it
cannot be accepted without sacrifice of per-
sonal dignity and self-respect by the man to

Mr.. Gre eey. The conduct of President Grant
will excite a very different emotion.

TEMPERANCE AMONG THE FREEDMEN.-

spoke Of the freedmen in Texas as being re-
markable for their abstinence from intoxica
ting drinks. He thinks there is not more thar
one in eight who touch the accursed thing
Since his visit to this city he says he has seen
more intoxicated persons than he has seen in
Galveston for long time. 1t is a rare
thing to see solored man the worse for
liquor. This is remarkable when we take in
to the account the fact that there is "free rum
there-no law prohibiting the sale and open
shops at every corner of the streets. The
freedmen,very many of them since their liberia.
tion from bondage have acquired considerable
property, from one to ten thousand dollars
each. They perfectly understand their rights
and conduct themselves accordingly. 1t mus
be confessed that they have made great prog
gress during the past few years.
After the lecture there was happy re-
union of the friends of Mr. Ruby at the house
of Mr.. Charles Eastman who provided an ex.
cellsnt supper for his invited guests. This
was got up in honor of Mr.. Ruby who is about
to leave his native city again and go to the fa1
South for the benefit of his race.

Ross, of Kansas, Is not ''the man of Ross
whose virtues were celebrated in the old poem.
On the contrary, there were many unpleasant
rurnors concerning him few months ago, and
whatever his virtues may be the weight of his
general character is not sufficient to give them
such prominence. 1t will be seen by our dis
patches that he has finally committed himself
to the line of conduct towards which he has
been for sometime tending. He makes the
tremendous announcement that he shall no

Am Attempt to Restore Life 10 an Exc
cueed Murderer.

The Philadelphia Press gives an interesting
account of the efforts of scientific men to re-
suscitate the body Of Gerald Eaton, who was
hung week before last for the murder of q
brother of Heenan, the pugilist:
Arrangements were made by the friends OF
the condemned to have an effort made to re-
suscitate the body. Accordingly, a committee
appointed for the purpose were in waiting at
the prison at the time Of the execution, and the
body, wrapped in Blankets was brought to the
University. The drop was four feet; the cord
around the neck was q small one. He hung
by the mock thirty minutes, and there were
signs of life only four minutes after the drop.
Ten minutes after being cut down he was
placed upon the table in the amphitheatre,
the time elapsing from the execution being
forty -four minutes. Six ounces of whiskey
were injected into the bowels, and one gal
lon of pure oxygen gas was forced into the
lungs, and a powerful galvanic battery applied
to the medulla 0blongata and the pit of the
stomach. At the same time the tongue was
withdrawn from the mouth and the body turn
ed from side to side after the method of Mar
shall Hall, for artificial respiration. In four or
five minutes marked change occurred in the
countenance; the chest gradually expanded
the eyes opened, one arm was drawn up, and
bymeans OF a steth0scope, contracti0ns and d.
lations of the heart were distinctly heard. So
evident were the signs of life that his friends
exulted over the fact that he really lived. An
other gallon of oxygen was introduced into the
lungs and the battery was charged so that the
current passed the entire length of the spine
and the artificial respiration continued. For o
few minutes the signs of life increased, but in
short time disappeared. Nitrous oxide gas
was injected into the lungs by an artificial
opening into the trachea, made by Professor
Duffee, but all to no purpose and at the expi-
ration of Que hour and twenty-five minutes,
the experiment ceased and the body was hand
ed over to the friends
