In one of the villages ofKentucky re-
Gently Baptist minister and young
Presbyterian clergyman preached in
the same house, "night about" both
being present at each meeting. One
evening the Presbyterian, after dis
course on baptism. proceeded to bap-
tize several babies The little candi-
dates made general outcry, which of
course, was noticed by the Baptist man.
Next day a number of converts Of the
latter were to be immersed in the river
near by. At the appointed time a
large concourse assembled on the banks,
the Presbyterian being one of the num-
ber, and standing close by the waters
edge. After the candidates had been
immersed the Baptist took hold OF his
Presbyterian colleague and said; Now,
sir, l will immerse you" The latter
amazed, demurred. Come along, I'm
in hurry replied the damp divine,
and dragged his brother into the water.
Alarmed and indignant the young Cal
vanist declared at the top Of his voice
that he ''did not believe in immersion,
was opposed to it, and would not sub
init to it,'-The audience wero much
excited at the scene The Baptist re-
leased bis hold and said; Young man,
! will not immerse you to-day but if
ever again, ] see you baptizing little

of their cries and kicks, as / saw you
do last night, | will dip you into the

Is
Europeans are surprised, we are told
at the precocity Of American children
boys and girls, ,aud the variety of theiI
attainmenls at All early age We take
no pleasure III hearing these reports.
Our patriotic pride is now and then
pleased by thcm-we feel slightly
American eagle-ish perhaps, butme Oft
ener reminded Of the thin, pale f;rced
little children, especially little girls,
whom we pass on their way to school
with books under their aims
Our children like eur women, are
made to know too much, and are allow.
ed to play too little The sooner
American mothers begin to take pride
in the development Of the limbs, the
muscles, the solid flesh Of their little
boys and girls The better for the coun-
try. When we meet q mother who is
proud other children, il is because they
are "intelligent, they learn 50 fast,P
they are cat the head of their classes" +"
they are "ambitious, Fathers pore
over the weekly reports sent from dis
tant schools, and are pleased at the
progress oftheir boys in such variety
of studicsis they do not notice the
cold" look of their young faces, when
they come home for vacation, that lack
of the round 'fulness Of youth, which
American schoolboys nearly always ex-
hibit. A precocious child is always
sad object to us
Precocity promises nothing-exper-
ience teaches US that 1t is merely a
premature development which inter-
feres with physical health, and in the
end defeats the very hopes it has crea-
ted Robust health on the other hand,
rosy cheeks and plump ones, full limbs,
lungs which make the air ring with
laughter and shouts, and now and then
with screams, are all promises offuture
manhood and future womanhood, which
nature will keep as sacredly as she does
her other promises" !"
From strong children, unless art with
its bungling and impertinent interfer-
ence forces her to change her plans, ma
ture will produce strong men and
strong women--men who can labor for
their families and their country as
strong men only can labor-women
who can assist their husbands as none
but strong women can. We have heard
enough Of prococity, we have heard
enough Of variety Of studies, wo have
heard enough of ambition, and prof.
Ciencyj we heard too much Of this su-
psriority Of American children.
Nochild ought to know more at eight
years old thanit can learn at its mothers
knee. The new object teaching and
the plan Of mingling study with play,
has rapidly developed in this country
into hot house pressing system. Our
schools for older children are as bad as
those for the younger, and our colleges
are no better. Precooious children, pre-
COcious girls, precocious young men,
precocious women, are too common in
this country We take no pride in
thermometers take too much pride in
them, 80 do fathers. The country needs
health, vigor, freshness in its youth
not precocity.

1t strengthens the debiltated system.
1t puritles and enrlches the blood, and expels
from the system the corruption which scrofula

1t dlssolves the mucus or phlcgm which stops

QUApRUPLE CRYSTAL STABBIyd.-
About eight o'clock, Saturday morning,
says tho San Francisco Times of Non.
day, q desperate attempt at robbery
and murder was perpetrsted in a Chi.
nese pawn shop on Dupont street, KEEP,
by Fang Chung. The proprietor had
left his place Of business, for q few mo-
ments, in charge of his daughter-s
girl about ten years of age. Soon after
he left a Chinaman entered, and was
proceeding to help himself to such arti.
c,es Of value as he could fnd. The girl
demonstrated with him, and then at.
tempted to give an alarm thereupon
the Chiuaman drew u large butche,
knife and stabbed her in the breast.
She screamed, when the savage stabbed
her sgsiu. She then clasped the knife
in both her hands, when it was j0rked
away, nearly sevsring the fingers. The
thief, bafied and in danger Of being
captured, made another luuge OF the
child, when the frightened girl again
caught the knife in her mutilated hands.
She then tried to escape, when he
stabbed her in the back and mado his
escape, leaving the knife behind him.
As soon as the alarm was given, officer
Woodruff was called, but as yet not a
trace Of the villain has been found.
The child, though severely cut, is likely
to survive, and says that she can reeog-
nize the %would-be assassin.

According to announcement, Mr.. G..
G.. Hubbard addressed our citizens last
Saturday evening, in the Senate Cham
Der, on the subject Of Postal Telegraphy.
He stated that the principle Of it was
tho same rs tho penny post, which had
proved a perfect success wherever it had
been put in practice. Two telegraph
systems were in operation in tie world,
the postal and the corporate. The form
err was in operation on the continent Of
Europe, the latter 10 the British Domin-
ions and the United States. The results
of the two established their comparative
merits. On the continent of Europe the
telegraph is used by all classes Of the
people in England and the United
States it is used by but a very small
portion. On the continent, whom the
high priced system was in use, the tel
egraph was used only by the bankers,
brokers and spectators. Since tho
adoption Of the cheap postal system,
the telegraph business has increased
over eight hundred per cent, and ono
half Of it is of a social and mercantile
character. As we experienced this same
favorable result from the adoption Of q
cheap postal System, there is every rea-
son to believe that we will also expert
ence it from the adoption Of the cheap
postal telegraph system, rs the continent
Of Europe has done. England has be-.
come so satisfied Of this fact, that,
against her prejudices, she adopts the
postal telegraph system next year. As
in Europe, so in this country, the tcle-
graph would become the familiar
of communication for all classes Of peo-
pie for all purposes, to the great saving
Of time and the manifest advantage Of
the whole county. Mr.. Hubbard elab-
GRATED his subject for about an hour,
but we have not room to follow him
through all the phases Of it which he
discussed /; but he handled them all in
a manner that convinced his listeners.
