pondent OF q paper of Manchester,
England, reports that there never has
been such rush for America as is now
made from Germany. The railroads to
Hamburg and Bremen are represented
as crowded by emigrants longing to en-
bark for the promised land. The great
majority of these are said to be skilled
mechanics and artisans. who will bring
their education, talents, industry and
money to enrich the United States
Without doubt most of these will go to
the West and Northwest; but We trust
that some of them, nt least, will be in.
duced to seek the fairest field for their
industry and mechanical capacity; which
is to be found in the South. If means
could be employed to divert but one
tenth of this life.giving stream of Ger
man immigration to our section, it would
be sufficient for the present. because
such are the numberless advantages
offered throughout the South to settlers,
that they would be quickly made known
to the populations Of Europe. who would
soon follow in multitudes.

Friday night, the Hon. Horace Greeley
said:
MIR. CHAIRMAN AND GENTLEMEN: 1
profess no claims to the society of collie
giate men. To be sure, Amherst has
made me doctor of laws, and of such
the world certainly stands in great need.
At least, the laws need doctoring, and
some OF the lawmakers. too. as you all
know. This appointment is recent
one, and I accept the trust. There is
no pay connected with it, but there is
honor. And it is we'll to honor those
who honor scholarship. At Amherst's
suggestion, then. shall try and doctor
the laws. and all good men will did me
in 30 doing. Your President proposes
to aid in the education OF the South.
What their needs are we all know, and
how much less than their means. Uni
versal education il principle-nay
more, a duty. All men vote, and all
women are apparently likely to, al
though I wish it understood I am not
endorsing the movement. Education is
as necessary as police or soldiers. Co.
vernment should not merely be the
means of keeping one mans hand out
of another mans pooket-it sometimes
does not succeed in that-its aims should
be larger; it should rather put means
into mems pockets. Government should
be fatherly, benefcent protector of the
people. I think, with Hamilton and
De Witt Clinton, that the duty of 60
vernment should not be merely to rein.
force the hangman and thief-taker. Ho-
nor everything that honors intelligence.
Colleges are the great fountains from
which spring all educated people. Edu-
cation is the support Of journalism
which is not the echo of courts and ca
binets, nor fostered by official patronage.
An illiterate people could not support
our institutions. Those are founded ia
the sohool-room. When that falls into
disrepute, despotism is not far off. Ho-
nor to everything that diffuses intelli-
gence; honor to everything that dissent
mates education. Honor them as foun-
dations OF free institutions and the life
of free people.

Essay By MAJOR WooDwARD.-Trom
the st. Louis Republican, Of the 29th Of
May, we clip with pleasure the following
paragraph:
Major T. W. Woodward, of South
Carolina, read an essay on the influence
of forests upon rainfall. The subject
was treated in pleasing and entertain
ing style; evidently written by one who
had lived country life, and was fami-
liar with nature in all her aspects. It
was received with applause. The essay
ist showed that trees and forests have a
very perceptible influence in attracting,
retaining and promoting moisture. and
that their destruction was the principal
cause Of recent frequent droughts. He
said that every tree that was felled was
so much taken from the wealth of the
country.
"Oom. Murray expressed his high ap.
probation Of the essay, and fully cor
roborsted it's statements. He moved
that the thanks of the meeting be award
ed the essayiat. Th6motion was carried
with enthusiasm"

near the region of my heart. picked
myself up slowly and confronted that
awful property-man. It was he. and not
q cannon ball. who had knocked me
down. s'You're nice sort of ouss. to
go chucking the properties about like
that. !" he exclaimed, as he picked up the
helmet and strobe away. Fortunately
for me, my friend had 30 much to attend
to that he hadn't time to knock me down
again. Otherwise I think he would have
done so; for he was very angry, stood
about six feet two inches, and was very
powerfully built. As soon as the COM
pany had resumed the costume of the
nineteenth century, they all hurried to
the different hotels to which they were
assigned-some to snatch on hours sleep
bsfore dinner, others to write letters,
and others. again, to lounge about and
smoke. I retired to my room to see if
any of my ribs were broken.
I had been 30 intently studying the
fat boy, that it was some time before my
attention was attracted to his immediate
neighborhood. At his left hand, sat
rather petite-looking young lady. nine
teen years old. with full beard aud
moustache; and next to her, sat little
lady Of eight and twenty years of nge,
aud thirty-two inches in height, in q
child's high chair. She is married to
one of the employees of the circus, who
is an ordinary sized man, and, strange
as il may appear. they say that she rules
him with an iron rod, by constantly
threatening to get divorce from him.
OF course, as she brings him o consider
nble annual income by exhibiting her
self. this is about the last thing he would
wish her to do. She gave US taste of
her quality during dinner. The funny
clown came in late, and on taking his
seat opposite the party, said, "Well, my
'smnll by degress and beautifully less.
Row are you all this hot day?" 'Sir. -
exclaimed the little woman, firing up in
an instant, II will thank you to treat me
as lady; you deserve to have your ears
we'll boxed. II my husband was here,
you wouldn't dare to address me sol'
My experience of circus has con-
vinced me of one thing-that from the
proprietor down to the lowest eupe and
stableman, each and every person con-
nected with one lead very hard life
and earn every penny they get; and
their short nights. their long journeys
in hot sun, over candy, dusty roads,
their PROFESSIONS in midday glare,
their thoroughly broken day, must be
exceedingly e1hausting to the system
There is, too, a considerable mental
strain in going through horseback act
in the ring. while the physical e1ertion
of the acrobats, gymnasts and leapers
must be something tremendous. And
yet, though some of them look worn,
they are all as CHEEKY and merry together
as possible.
