Mount Union COllsge---Its Finances
and Last Years Work.

The public exercises Of the winter
term OF Mount Union College, having
Just terminated, were largely attended,
and Of a very interesting character, The
public examinations OF the classes re-
Elected credit upon the Professors and
the students. The Literary Societies
gave a public performance Of unusual
excellence, consisting Of oratiOns, peri
odicals, c~OllOQuies and a discussion.
This session has eAcelled any former
winter term in the History of this Insti-
tuition, as respects not only the number,
but also the general department and
grade Of the scholarship Of the students.
Having been first organized in 1916, as a
small seminary, with six pupils and One
teacher, it was in 1855 regularly charter
ed as a college, with a responsible Board
of Trustees and a Faculty Of experienced
teachers; and now il presents the follow
ing actual attendance and summary Of
its last years work: In the Classical and
Scientific Department, Seniors, 50; Ju-
niOrs, 50; S~OphOmores, So; Freshmen,
222; In Normal or Teachers Depart
Tnent, 234; Commercial Department. 2S3;
In Musical Department, 255; In Fine Art
Department, AZ. The College already
possesses, in good title, an unencumber-
ed net property of S24S,64S, with an in
como (iOr The year 1870 OfSls,0ls.
The proposed plan Of securing by
donation an Endowment Of $500, 600,
having lately received an addition Of
$4,000, can, ana probably will, on
appropriate efforts, be completed by
some two years more. The college
buildings are new and cOmmodious,
and apartments nave just been
completed to provide good, cheap and
pleasant boarding accommodations for a
daily attendance of GOO students. Mount
Union is a highly pleasant, healthy and
moral village, within two miles Of ALI
ance depot, situated on one of the great
railways from the Atlantic 10 the Pacific
coast, and so connected with other rail-
roads as to render the location OF the
college very desirable. The College
Sessions are the Spring, Summer, Fall
and Winter Terms, which begin about
the first OF March, and the middle Of
E,Gy, August and November, respective

The impression is steadily gaining
ground among the shrewd diplomatists
at the capital that We need something
more han money to heal M the sore
injuries hat Great Britain gave us du-
ring our war through her Alabama. The
something more than money takes the
shape Of Canada and British Columbia.
and 1t may yet occur that the withdrawal
OF he British flag from the American
Continent may become the ultimStum Of.

The efforts of Mr.. MCCARTHY, the repre-
sentative of the Salina Salt Works, to
reduce the duties on salt 33 per cent, go
as to escape the vengeance of swlndled
people hereafter comes entirely too late.
There was never valid excuse for the
imposition. 1t was piece of protection
for the sake of protection By which the
government was cheated out of it's rev
enues, and the public plumber Of their
earnlngs in the mere interest of monop-
oily Every dollar the Treasury has re
ceived from this duty has cost the people
fifty dollars. II the interest can 1--we on
33 per cent. less protection it can i've
without any, end it will III any event
take some years for the people to make
up on free salt what has already been
taken from them by lniquitnus legisla
ton. The public sentence on the salt and
coal monopolies has already gone forth,
and the duties should be absolutely re
pealed. Strict justice would require that
the extortions levied on community by
ihese interests should also be reached in
some way, and the money restored TO he
victims who have so long suffered from
boundless rapacii y Chicago Post.

EFFICACY OF ONIoNs--A writer says
HWe are troubled often with severe
coughs, the result of col long standing
which may turn to consumption or pre-.
mature death. Hard coughs cause sleep
less nights, by constant irritation in the
throat, and strong effect to throw of
offensive matter feom the lungs. The
remedy l propose has.been tried by me-
and recommended by me with good re
salts, which Is simply to take into the
stomach before retiring for the night d
piece of raw onion, after chewing. This
eseulcnt in an unconkea state is very
heating, and collecting water from the
lungs 2no throat, causes immediate re
lief to the patient"

HABITS OF STUDY.-Rev. Charles
Brigham, of Ann Arbor, has an article il
the Herald of Health on this topic which
contains good deal of sound sense The
following is an extract:
1t is not proved either by school
statistics or by health statistics that there
is " too much" study in the civilized
nations; certainly the general intelligence
of many people has not reached the point
Of redundance in knowledge. The fault
Is more in the methods and habits o.
study than in its quantity Ministers are
sometim % called hard students" and
are pitied because they have to spend s.,
much time over their sermons. But not
one minister in ten who breaksd down pre-
maturely Is disabled because he has done
too much or worked too hard, but only
because he had worked in the wrong
way. The amount of study does not ia
the mischief-it wearies and kills only
because it is badly adjusted. Some will
study straight on for two, four, six OF
eight hours, with no relief reading in
cessantly, writing necessarily, hardly
stopping for food. Six or eight hours d
day are not excessive in quantity, but six
or eight consecutive hours are sure sell
destruction. Few constitutions can stand
that strain, even If all the rest of the
waking hours bespent upon the play
ground, and solid bar of sleep be put
between the days. It is never pleasant
to hear student say that he does all his
work at a" single sitting : that he locks
h mseli in his room after breakfast and
stays there until his late dinner, when
his work is donc for the day. Iftbe man
who does that, month after month, and
year after year, escapes organic malady
and Keeps his mind clear to old age, it is .
clear miracle, special Providence. Such
stat ements we find in the biographies OF
great men, but they are usually exaggerat-
eel and misleading Too many consecutive
hours of study rejust as bad for the
strong man as for the school boy One
viii keep a brighter mind and mnre
capacious and retentiye, too who breaks
away and walks in tie garden at the end
of each hour, then one who plods on
without rest through the long day.
