EDUCATION IN IRELAND.

! The Governors of the Queen
University in Ireland recently helt
their annual meeting, at which
~boisterous debate arose on the prin
ciples of mixed education. The Ex
press says the controversy was
doubtless prompted by a belief that ,
revision of the Irish University svs-
tenn will be undertaken by the Brit
lsh Parliament in the course of its
next session. Several plans have al
ready been preached. There is Mr..
Facets scheme for throwing open
Dublin University, secularizing the
college funds, and developing the
system of % resident membership.
so as gradually to bring a considera-
BILE Roman Catholic element into the
governing body. There is another
plan for detaching the Dublin Uni
versity altogether from Trinity Col
lege. which now is practically iden-
teal with it, so that the University
may be able to embrace any number
of affiliated colleges perhaps includ
ing those which now constitutes the
Queens University. What measure
Gladstone Will eventually adopt it is
difficult to imagine. At present he
is fettered by no pledge beyond the
admission that Irish Catholics edu-
in colleges of their own NAV
claim access to ~academical de
grees, and to Il share of academical
endowment. 1t will require no or
craftsmanship to construct a
measure that viii please all-or, at
any rate, the majority-and one ca
pable of future expansion. 1t is idle
to imagine that any measure a be
more palatable both to an ultramon-
priesthood and to partisans OF
mixed education: but We cannot ina
CINE why it is not possible to devise
4 scheme which Will enable Irishmen
Of all creeds to obtain academical de
grees without any violence to denom-
national scrupies, OF any consider
able disturbance Of existing institu-

WHERE THE NICKHL CONES FROM.

Few people are aware that the
nickel, from which our smaller coins
are made, comes from a single mine,
which is the only one in the country
that IS now being worked. This
mine is situated in Lancaster county,
IA. 1t has been worked for sew
enteen years, and developed to a
depth OF 200 feet. The length of this
lode is between 1000 and 5000 feet,
and 1t produces from 400 to 600 tons
per month, employing in the work
ing OF the mine a force of 175 men.
In the arts, nickel is rapidly grow
ing INTO favor as a substitute for
silver IN plating steel. iron and other
metals. It's commercial demand is
rapidly increasing, and as it is much
cheaper than silver. it will undoubt-
edly be adopted in the manufacture of
many articles as a substitute for
that more precious metal. One
mine. the Minelamotte tract, Mis-
souri,, was worked from 1850 to 1886.
The ore was the sulphuret, associ-
ated with lead and copper. About
$4,000 was realized from the
vein. Groupings of nickel ore are
found also in Madison, Iron, and
Wayne counties, Missouri. The
refined metal is worth So per
pound.

Ii there ever was a v0man with

her a woman-not satisfied with hay

mined torub intothis community the
shame of having acquitted her, and
now proposes to insult public opiu-

best way to treat her would be to let
her severely alone; but wedo not be-
lieve this course will be adopted,
and it is safe to say that Mrs. Fair
will have an overlooking house, and
will be able to coin her ~notoriety in
to dollars. Worse than she are the
creatures whom she calls her friends,
and who are aiding and abetting her
in this outrage on common deccncy.
We wish there was some way in
which she and they, together with
the Woodruff women and all their
crowd. could be taken to some sol
itary island in the middle of the
ocean, and left there to prey on one
another. As it is, they are doing in
calculable injury to public morality.

those great agents of progress and

mouth-never was there q mouth more
worthy Of trust! The lips are mobile in
the sense Of generosity and tenderness,
but are not less expressive of courage,
self-reliance and firmness. 1t is mouth
to be trusted forever. A decisive chin
completes the perfect oval Of face
which is shaded by soft gray hair, worn
long and thrown back from the temples.
The face is smooth shaven, and roseate
complexion indicates the healthy old
age of well-spent life. The morning
we saw him he had been in the senate
until four o'clock, and had taken no
rest, but he looked as fresh and strong
as boy from his morning bath. This,
too, is only the day but one after his
nomination to the Vice Presidency, and
he is as serene as q summer sky. His
voice is round and full, with an organ
