The Outside Passenger.

The night was so gloomy and threatning
that | was not only surprised, but actual
ly amazed that any person but men should
endeavor 10 get on until the prospects
frightened. ........
For more than an hour we had been
talking about the Western ccuotry, its
hardship IS and dangers, and wondering it
as much exposure and general 'roughlng
it in the bush" might not warrant success
anv,chere, even at home; and then Dave
came up to his feet, performed the mar
riage ceremony between the top button
and the opposite button-hole of his coat
appels, settled his cap down closely to his
alert ears and remarked: -.....
Times up, gentlemen; and if any one
of you are going in my barge he better

Children's Quick apprehension.

GRowN persons are apt put lower
estimate than is Just on the understanding
of children; they rate them by what they
know, and children know very little, but
their capacity ct comprehension is very
great; hence the continued wonder OF
those who are upacoustomed to them at
the .".o!d fashioned ways" Of some lone
little one who has had no playfellows,
and at the odd mixture of folly and Wis
dom in its sayings. A continual battle
goes on in childs mind between what
it knows and what it comprehends. Its
answers are foolish from partial ignorance
and wise from extreme quickness of apr
prehension. The great art Of education
is SO train this last faculty as neither to
depress or over-exert it. The matured
mediocrity of many an infant prodigy,
proves both the degree of expansion to
which it is possible to force child's in
tellect, and the boundary which nature
has set the success of such false culture

Mixed Schools i'm Newark, N. j.
How they Work.

A short time since the Republican announced
that in Newark the Board of Education had
decided to admit colored children into the
white schools. In view of the agitation of
the mixed school question in this city, the re-
suit thus Tar OF the experiment in Newark will
interest all OF our citizens concerned for the
welfare of public schools. The Newark
Erening Courier sums up the result thus far as
follows:
More than two months have elapsed since
the Board of Education decided that the col
ored children of the city may take their seats
in any OF our public schools, and it is now
time, perhaps, to inquire to what extent they
have awaited themselves of the right thus ac-
knowledged.
1t will be remembered that it was fire.
quently stated during the many months in
which the Commissioners had under con-
sideration the perplexed question of opening
the doors OF the schools to blacks and whites
alike, that the colored citizens, as a class,
desired separate schools for their children.
That this is true, it is even now impossible to
definitely decide, but certain it is that as vet
no very general influx of colored children into
the schools has taken place. In the Thir-
teenth ward, where, as Commissioner Jenkin-
son said, there are three hundred children of
this class OF the school age, there are not half
dozen in the school, while in the Spruce
street school, in the same section of the city,
there are found only about the same number
In the Ninth ward school there are about a
dozen, and in the Tenth ward perhaps four
teen, but in no other are there to be seen as
many as six colored faces. Besides the schools
named, only the Second ward, Third ward,
and West Newark have any.
In all there are about forty colored children
in the so-callcd white schools. There is little
reason to doubt, however, that as the novelty
OF the thing wears off, and colored parents
see that their children can sit upon the same
school bench with the paler youths of the city,
without being subjected to rude treatment,
they will grasp at the advantages offered.
Thus far the department of the white toward
the colored children has been excellent.
There is certainly no good reason why it
should be otherwise, for the latter have in all
instances conducted themselves admirably
and won the respect Of all with whom they
are associated. In the matter of Intelligence
and aptitude they compare favorably with
the whites, although they are not quite as
Far advanced in their studies, fact wholly
attributable TO their previous lack of oppor-
tunitics.
The proposed stampede Of indignant white
children has not taken place. True, two fam
lilies in the aristocratic Ninth ward withdrew
their sons and daughters from the school, and
one gentleman in the Third ward has done
likewise. Possibly two or three other pa
rents in the city should be numbered in the
same category. But the decrease is not per-
ceptible. No great excitement exists or has
existed,

A Chapter On Gold.

Baron Humboldt said that before Columbus
struck the New World, Q492,) the amount OF
gold and silver dug annually amounted to
only $250, 200; and that the gross amount OF
gold and silver in use in the world was $l75, =
100000, about one-twelfth of our national
debt. How valuable was dollar in those
days? Why, it would buy ten bushels OF
wheat and pay for ten days labor.
Well, the Spaniards overrun Mexico and
South America, and before 1862 one thousand
new mines were discovered in Europe and
Asia. In 1545 the annual yield of gold and
silver had increased from $3.50, 900 to 1850,
$3.50, 100000.
In 1900 the stock on hand was estimated at
$3.50, 200, 900.
In 100 it had reached 81 1886, 000,000
In 1900 it had reached 81 900, 000, 900.
From 1910 to 1899 there was not much
mining a good deal of gold and silver were
used in the arts, and, through "wear and
tear" the worlds stock of gold and silver de-
creased to 81 ,565, 900, geo.
From 1900 to 1913, before California, the
worlds supply Of gold and silver, through
mines in Russia and North and South Amer
lea, increased to a, 095, OO0, 900.
In 1913 came California. Australia fol-
lowed, and in 1853 the years yield was
SiVO,SUU,OuO. SldIlStiCo BLOW tiHJ lHc WOTlu
annual yield of gold and oliver, since 1913,
has been $3.50 900, 900; 80 that, in 1870, the
amount of gold and silver in the world in
money and the arts amounted to 81 900, 900,
600.
Still the gold and silver is increasing.
Nevada is opening up rich mines. Colorado
richer, and one hundred mines are being
worked in Utah alone.
There is also lead enough in Utah to sup
ply the world, while California, Idaho, and
Montana are supplying gold in unusual guam
titles. The "Comstock Lode" supplies three
tons of silver per week, the Meadow VAL
lev" at Phoebe, three tons per week, worth
$32, 900 per ton,) and Mr.. Webster says there
are still 1000 mworked copper, tin, bismuth,
silver, and lead mines within $50 miles of
Salt Lake City.
America alone yielded in gold and silver in
1870, 800 200, 900; and it was estimated that
in 1871 the annual increase reached $780,

A Candid Opinion.

We like General Grant; but we care fal
more for Republican ascendency than for any
mans personal fortunes. 1t is in our view
OF great Importance that the opposition shall
be kept out of power, while it is of compara-
lively small moment that A or b should
tenant the White House. For a Democratic
national triumph means a restoration to
power of those who deserted their seats in
Congress and their places under the last
Democratic President to plunge the country
INTO the Red Sea of secession and rebellion
Though you paint an inch thick, to this COM
plexion you must come at last. The brain.
the heart, the soul, of the present Demo,
cratic party is the rebel element of the
South, with its Northern allies and svmpo-
thiZers. 1t is rebel at the core to-day
hardly able to reconcile the defeats of leo
Johnston, Bragg, Hood, and Price. and
the consequent downfall of its beloved Con-
federacy, with its traditional faith in Divine
Providence. 1t would hail the election of a
Democratic President in 1872 as virtual re-
versal of the Appomattox surrender. 1t
would come into power with the hate. the
chagrin, the wrath, the modification, of ten
bitter years, to impel and guide its steps.
It would devote itself to taking off or reduc-
ing tax after tax until the Treasury was de.
prived of the means of paying interest on the
national debt, and would hail the tidings of
national bankruptcy with unalloyed gladness
and unconcealed exultation. Whatever chas-
tisement may be deserved by our national
sins, we must hope that this disgrace and hui
initiation will be spared us.
The above is from the 15ib,me-obyiously
