CONDITIONS OF PEACE - FRENCH
POLITICS.
PARIS, February I9.-The official
declaration Of the result of the cleo
ton for the Assembly was made on
Friday before the Hotel de Vile.
Thiers, Favre, VinOy, Cochin, Picard
and Simon were elected. New elec-
tions will be held in Paris on the first
and fifth of March. The COn5erva-
tives are preparing a carefully selected
list of candidates.
The mayor of the eleventh arOndis-
ment made a speech expressing the
hope, as it was unCe stCOi among the
Deputies elected, that France should
remain a Republic.
This was received with cries Of
Long live the Republic ~" Down
with Orleanists." 1t is announced
that Gambetta has been elected to
represent Strasburg in the Assembly.
The Palais Royal has been designated
as the future residence Of President
Thiers, and WOrkmen are busily en-
gagged putting il in order for his recep-
ton.
The appointment of Theirs as Chief
Executive Of the nation was well re-
ceived in Paris, and the journals gen
erally approved the election OF GreVy
for the Presidency of the Assembly.
ROchefOrt's and Pyatt's journals alone
find fault with these appointments.
TrOchu will go to Bordeaux, resign
his executive functions and take his
seat in the Assembly.
Letters have been received from
several deputies new at Bordeaux
declaring that they desire peace, but
if the conditions are eXOrbitant, they
will do their duty.
France has reason to believe that
Bismarck has communicated to FRvre
the German terms of peace, and Favre
has laid them before his colleagues.
French newspapers everywhere,
repel the idea Of making any cOnces-
sion of territory. The La Libsrte
says a durable peace on such cOndi-
tions is impossible.

BORDEAUX, February 19.-The con-

overstep his privileges as a prisoner,
and abstain from any interference in
politics in any form, either in protests
or prOclamatiOns. Orders have been
given 10 watch him closely.

THE will of God is a path leading
straight TO God. The will of man,
which once ran parallel with il, is
now another path, not only different
from it, but, in our present state, de
rectly contrary to it: it leads from
God. IL, therefore, we walk in the
one, we must necessarily quit the
other. We cannot walk I'm both. In
deed, a man of faint heart and feeble
hands may 60 in two ways, one after
the other; but he cannot walk in two
ways at the same time-fOllOw his
own will, and follow the will of God;
he must choose the one, or the other;
denying Gods will to follow his own,
OF denying himself to follow the will
of God.

1t is doubtful if the invention Of the
sewing machine has helped those who
sew for a living 10 any great extent.
Some of the lace men have a rascally
way of dealing with their collar
hands. If, for instance, they wish to
get up new style they give the first
to some nimble- fingered but not sharp
witted operator, and tell her that they
will set the price when the work Is
done. The result is the more the poor

INTERMEDIATES DEPARTMENT
SECOND PRIMARY DEPARTMENT.

The greatest obstacle to the perfect success
of our schools experienced by ourteachers, as
shown by their records, is from the irreguIari-
ty in attendance, and hardness of the schol-
airs. We have never heard any complaints of
inetticiency on the part of our teachers, but on
the other hand, from those who know whereof
they speak, we have heard only words of COM
mendatiOn. But how many of those who have
children in the schools are prepared to say
that the teachers are competent and discharg-
ing their duties faithfully? Not one in fifty,
for they never visit the schools to see how
they are conducted; and they may be assured
that children will share in the uncencern of
their parents, and manifest it in being irregu-
lar, tardy and dilatory, and to the injury of
themselves and the whole school. 1t is one of
the greatest discouragements to teachers to
know that their success is continually oh
structed by the parents over whom they have
no control. Teachers must have the co-opera-
ton of the parents. This fact seems to have
escaped the attention of the parents of this
town more completely than in any town of
which we have any knowledge. There has
been no visitors, or but one or tive, in our
schools during this term. Is it not time that
the fathers and mothers of the rising genera
ton should awake to a sense of their RESPONSE
bllitiesg Do they ever know their children
are IN school? We venture TO say that the
parents of one boy at least who is in the habit
of playing truant imagine that he is in school
every day. Perhaps the tardy marks often
result from the scholars playing by the way.
If the parents would VISIT the schools occa-
sionally and see the records made by their
young hopefuls, they might be persuaded to
look after them little more attentively,

EDITORS NEws: It is TO be feared that your
correspondent ..U. Bette,'' forgot the Tenth
Commandment when he reached the beautiful
lands Of the Kaw Reserve, on his recent visit,
and looked with such longing eyes at the rich
soil. Wien he became so pathetic over the
waste Of good land there why did he not think
Of the millions of acres of equally productive
lands held Is spectators in a state of nature:
The Kaw Indian has just as good title to the
soil of his reserve as Uncle Sam can give to any
white man. The Government has no more
right to annul the title it has given the Kaws
TO their lands, and remove them without their
consent, than it has to annul the patents by
which white spectators hold their ''beautiful
prairies." What if the Indians don't choose
TO cultivate their reserves whose business is
it: When white people get their titles to land
they use their own pleasure about improving
IL, and thank no one for meddiing with their
affairs. If Uncle Samuel agreed to feed these
Indians, he should live up to his agreement.
And we see no necessity for so much growing
about a few acres, owned by the poor, degrad-
ed, despised Indian, not being improved, when
there are so many millions owned by white
men, in the same condition. NEosHo.
