THE NEXT CoNGREsS, The names of some
Of the ablcSt men in the Democratic party will
be missed from the roll OF the next House.
They have gone down under that tidal wave. p"
At the October election, the Democrats lost
all their prominent Pennsylvania members ex-
ccpt Randall. In Ohio, Gen. Morgan was
defeated, and in Indiana, MesSrs. Voorhees,
and Kerr. In New York, Sunset" Cox is
defeated, and Gen. Slocum, one Of their best
men, did not make the race. His successor in
his Brooklyn district is Gen. s. l.. WoOdford,
Fernando Wood, James Brooks and Clarkst n
n Potter are the only conspicuous Democrats
elected from New York. In Maryland. ex-
Governor Swan, in Kentucky Mr.. Beck, and in
Illinois s. S. Marshall were successful Aside
from these we recognize few names of eStab-
Iished reputation. Not only numerically but
intellectually the Democrats will make poor
showing in the next House The opposite is
the case with the Republicans All their ex-
perienced parliamentary leaders have been
sent back, and they will be reinforced by many
new names of great promise.

A REPENTANT SPIRITUALIsT.-Th Rev.
Samuel Watson, of Tennessee, a Methodist
minister, has got into trouble through writing
and publishing hin, a. "heTstca Thd bOSk S, under the
The Memphis Conference of the Methodist
Church, having examined the work, find it to
be defence of Spritualism. The reverend
author has been compelled to apologize for his
literary effort and to agree TO withdraw it from
circulation as far as possible. 1t contains
numerous letters from citizens of Tennessee,
long since dead. and is no doubt amusing
reading. The action of the Conference will
make every person anxious TO purchase copy,
and hence it may after all be fortunate for the
author that he has been hauled over the Goals.
1t is curious fact that the world is never so
anxious 10 read book as when it has been
pronounced unfit for perusal

Too MANY STUDIES AT a TIME-There is s
great deal Of truth in the following, which VIC
find in the y. y. Yrijune:
An irate Philadclphian father doesn't ap-
prove of the present system Of schoOl-teaching.
He declares it is far below that in vogue thirty
years ago, and that it is making candidates for
the insane asylum and piling up heap of
misery in many forms. He desires that there
should be reasonable fOgging in schools
beginning with the teachers. One thing which
especially rouses his wrath is the way in which
tired parents are forced to teach their sleepy
children, during the evening, the lessons which
they go to school the next day merely to recte.
He demurs, and with reason, at doing the
mental drudgery for which he literally pays
others who are purposey fitted for it. 1t is
not alone from Philadelphia that this remOn-
strance comes. In all our cities, parents are
complaining bitterly of the studying at home
TO which their children are forced on pain OF
falling below their classes. No father wants to
teach school during all his leisure hours and
no child should be compelled to spend so much
of the day in brain-work. Fewer studies and
sufficient time for the mcmorlzinE Of lessons at
the desk. 1t is the great fault Of our schoo
system that it demands that children should
occupy themselves with more studies at one
time than they are able intelligently to master
The superficial cramming in vogue anC
mawkish sentimentalism about the switch arr
among the school humbugs of the day. And i
we may Judge from the complaint OF th'
schools that come up from every quarter, thos
: of 30 years ago were in many points superior t
the schools of to-day The reckless extrava
gance in books and other material is crying
evil of the system.

country, we will rejoice and be glad in that VIC
live in land of pure religion, Of liberty and

land whose moral sentiment beats 50 strongly

songs Of rapture in the most blessed fact of all,
God reigns and is our trust. How strikingy
was this manifested after the great Boston fire
Of few weeks ago While yet the shoulder
ing ruins were sending clouds of smoke over
the fire stricken city, the heart of the country
was stirred with emotions of sympathy and
with thoughts Of relief. Messages flashed to
Boston from committees appointed to help.
The steam-sped trains poured in supplies.
Then stood up in Boston a throng of heroic
sufferers, and with tender hearts and tremu-
lOuS voices, as their eyes went over the sceno
of their buried treasure and Frustrated busi-

sounds of brothery sympathy and aid, that
