The Education of Interpreters.

The recommendation of President
Grant that interpreters be educated at
the national expense in the Chinese and
japanese languages to such an extent as
may be necessary to transact our grow
ing business with those countries, is one
that merits attention.
Our knowledge of their institutions and
language is extremely limited, although
we have large and constantly increasing
comercial intercourse with both, which
involves the transaction Of consular du
ties requiring exact information and read
iness n language and usages. These du
ties can be but very imperfectly perform.
ed unless through the service of compe
tent interpreters, and it is notorious thai
such are very rarely found.
Fortunately. too, this very desirable
object may be attained without special
tax upon the Government or people
There is in the Treasury ofthe United
States a balance of an indemnity func
which was paid by the Chinese Govern
ment in accordance with the conditions o
the Convention of 1858. 1t was for loss
es sustained by American citizens in pre-
vious uu friendly manifestations of atteD
ton by irate Chinese citizens, The in
demnity exceeding the losses, the balanc,
was several times rendered to the Chimes
Government, and uniformly refused. Thi
balance amounts now to 100000 ant
will produce an income of $4,000 pc
annum--a sum amply sufficient to accom-
PHI h the desired result. There is no rea
son why it should not be so used, unles
some overastute lawyers afflicted wit
measles or befogged with contradictor
precedents should interpose objection.
How the end can best be accomplshe
is a question that should receive early al
tention from Congress, Several method
suggest themselves. One is, as there ar
in nearly all the States colleges establish
through the generosity Of the Fedora
Government, additional aid might be Civ
Ell to such as could best maintain an er
dowed professorship of Chinese and JaE
anese. Or as Presidents Buchanan an
Lincoln recommended, an American co
lege might be established in China. A
any rate, commerce and diplomacy r'
quire, and circumstances favor, the in
mediate and practical adoption of tn
Presidents very excellent recommends

y Kansas paper revives amusingly
how Gen. Sherman failed as conspicuous
Iy in law as he succeeded brilliantly in
the war. In the early "jayhawking' days
the General made slender livelihood in
Calhoun county, and once, when he had
prepared himself most eaborately,it is re-
lated that "long; lank, lean genius"
eaving his OK team, came before the
court as his competitor. The general sum-
ned up grandly, quoting freely from an
immense pile Of books placed carefully be-
lore him, and citing the English common
Jaw to prove his point. The "bull-whaak-
1r" followed him and ridiculed his prece-
ients and secuted at his books He said
t was an insult to the court to read from
he common law of England" and de-
;lared that "if We were compelled to take
my of that aristocratic British law" he
wanted "the very best her majesty had,
md none of her common law" This was
;nough ; the Justices face was set and the
general lost his case. 1t was the last he
yer tried in Kansas.
