mans injuries were the result of an &C.

there is no longer doubt that the man

Educational.

Rec.ut visits to several Of the schools
have impressed Us with the idea that
there is, in some cases too little def
nitenes. in the work done by the teach
or. There is too much generalizing.-
Some Of the teachers begin recitation
without knowing where it will end
They seem to have no well-de6ned pur-
qoee, beyond that of occupying the
time allotted to = given class. Some Of
them are ted by the pupils through an
entire exercise.
A little boy starts for school on a
summer morning, and is allured from
che path by the beauty of rose, which
il blooming just over the fence. A
honey bee culling sweets, is startled
1ts4 his work, and, buzzing for an in'
slant, 1ses away to the forest. The
boy follows him eagerly, but soon stops
to gaze at the many colors OF a
gaudy butterfly, whose golden
wings are glittering in the sun
light. Az the thing Of beauty hides
itself among the alder blossoms, cntranc-
ing sounds fall upon the car Of the
truant, and he dashes along under the
dense umbrage, until he spies the FOAM
ing waters Of cascade as it leaps from
rock to rock, down into a deep gorge
throug Oh which it winds its way to some
deeper and more ;lcntstrcam. He laves
his feet in its waters gathers few peb-
bles from its bed and plucks some Of the
crosses which grow upon it's banks
Hiseuriosity satisfied, and feeling Of
weariness coming over him, he thinks
Of the school and eagerly sets out upon
his return. His haste is too impetuous.
He had wandered without making a
note Of distance, or Of direction, and
seon awakes to the consciousness Of
being lost in the woods.

Th00lksxiVlo1.

To- day has been designated BY the
National Executive, aud BY nearly al
Of the Governors as one for thanks
giving aud praise. 1t has been done
partly in compliance with the demands
Of Colonial custom, but chiefly be-
cause Of the reverence and humility
which Christian people feel when con-
semplnting the vicissitudes which have
characterized an epoch described by the
completion Of Earth's journey around
the sun.
This Nation vas born Of the idea
that God would prosper those who,
wisely employing the means which He
has provided, put their trust in Him.
This gave rise to degree OF individ-
ual;sm in religion, which the Old World
had never experienced, and resulted
here in the complete emancipation Of
the Church, from civil control. Our
Constitution, although framed in subor-
dination to all recognized Christian
truth, contains no clause by the opera
ton Of which men are to be restrained
in the enjoyment oftheir religious creed.
worship, to be valuable, must be, in
one se,se, roluntary. 1t must neither
be enforced aox enjoined by any civil
code. 1t is this freedom to do. that
,nakes US responsible for our acts. Il
man, who, being under daress, violates
civil law, does not thereby incur any
penalty, and so he whose religious con-
victions are subordinated to the behests
of State Church, although he violates
its canons, will not be held to have CON-
n'itted treason against the Government
Of God.
Tor Ahis reason, in America, Chris
ti.nity and crceds are not established
by law, but depend upon the unlimited
freedom of the conscience and
the viii. So it is with the
Thanksgiving. No law provides
for its observance. Let it once be
made by statute, National Holiday,
and its power as a religious agency
will be completely destroyed. The
value Of Thanksgiving is found in its
epontoacity. In our observance Of it
We should avoid even thinking that it
il 4 custom. Our sense of gratitude
for life, and all its attendant blessings
should be so absorbing rs to exclude
the idea that We are engaged in form
al exercise, which is perpetua.ed as an
expression Of regard for the simple pie
~ Of our ancestors. Every one has
something for which to be thankful.
If any have suffered, they cannot but
feel grateful that they have escaped
even greater calamities. If the chas-
Jennings Of the rod in the hand Of our
Father, have seemed grievous, let Us
draw nearer to him in the future, and
thereby lessen the severity Of the strokes.
An Observation-Disclosures for past favors
will do much toward fitting US to accept
resignedly whatever the future may be-
stow, and let Us remember that we can
not be truly thankful if We harbor one
sakmd feeling toward our ueighbor.

PUBLICATION has been made Of the
particulars Of the alleged plot Of Laura
Fair and u restaurant waiter, Frank, to
poison Judge Dwinelle and the counsel
for the people, Alex Campbell. Tho plot
was formed before the second trial and
was revealed by Frank. He said Mrs.
Fair tried to induce him to put poison
in a docanter in Dwincllo's house, or a
milk can at the door. About the same
time woman went to his house dis
guised and told his wife not to leave
the can out. The matter has been
concealed from the public, but was in
vestig.tcd by Chief Crowley, police,
Judge Dwinelle and all tho counsel in
the case. Some thought Fair was in
sane. but she had plan Of Dwinclle's
house. Mrs. Fair remains in San
Francisco, the place Of her intended
murder. People are much incensed at
her proposition to give public lectures.
