Prof. AgassiZ's Illness.

BOSTON, Dec. IL,
Prof. Agassizs friends now entertain the
gravest fear as to the result. Paralysis
seems imminent and Dr. Brown-Scquard,
who had been summoned from New York
expecting to return Sunday night, felt con-
strained to delay his departure and still re-
mains at the bedside of his friend and pa
tient. DR.. Wyman of Cambridge has also
been in attendance, and these gentle
men freely admit Prof. Agassiz's danger,
and have prepared his friends for the pos
sible issue of the disease. When asked If
the case was alarming, one of the ply
scans replied that he feared something
worse than death. The base of the brain
is seriously weakened, and paralysis is of
the whole muscular system is feared. The
professor is still conscious and his intelec-
tual faculties retain their clearness. What
his most intimate friends fear is that if
death does not speedily take place he may
be doomed to a prolonged and
wretched existence as hopeless
paralytic. One of his immediate scientific
associates expressed this fear, and said that
he could far easier see Agassiz die than see
him drag out such miserable existence,
Prof Agassiz was at his museum, about a
quarter of mile from his house, on Satur-
day morning, and went to work in room
so warm as to create profusc perspiralion.
lie was soon after taken i'll, and had to be
taken home by one of his assistants. From
that time he grew rapidly worse Dr.
Brown-Sequard remains constantly at the
professors house.

people take very little interest in the public

above all others, should have been present
at the examinations of the past two days.
and asccrtained, personally, whether their
attacks upon our school system have any
foundation in fact but they were not pres
emit and we suppose they will continue
their attacks without knowledge" of the
real services of their teachers or the value
of our graded school system. 1t is to be
hoped that those who are so quick to cnti-
else will take the opportunity to visit the
various school rooms during the next term
and see each one for himself, for, they
can be assured they will receive cordial
welcome from the teachers, and aided in
any investigation of the merits of the
schools they may desire to make.
The examinations We're concluded on
Friday morning in Arithmetic, German,
Latin, Astronomy and French - all of
which indicated thorough progress of the
pupils and the methods of the teacher The
class in Principal Latina was taken in charge
by Rev. DR.. Harris, who conducted the ex-
animation entirely Independent of the
teacher, Mr.. Dana. The answers were in
the main prompt aud intelligent, eyidenc-
ing that the pupils were well grounded in
the principles and elements of the language.
The class in Astronomy was under the
charge of Mss Mary Burnham, the pre-
ceptress of the High School. The meth.
dds of the teacher in instruction were
shown to be intelligent and thorough, and
the explanations of the topics by the pupils
were of character that indicated full
understanding of the subject.
The classes in German and French APP
peared well and gave ample testimony
of the excellent qualifications of Miss
Gronweg as a teacher of modern languages
and the pupils showed plainly their pro
gress in the mastery of the two languages
Correct and accurate maps of the Stat,

DETRoIT, Mich. Dec.

DETROIT, Mich, Dec. L.
y horrible story of outrage has been
made public in the town of Warren, about
twelve miles from Detroit. A year and u
half ago one Charles Louis Alton was EN-.
ploycd to teach in a Roman Catholic school
at Warren also to act as sexton of the
church. During this period Alton outraged
the persons of no less that eighteen school
girls, none Of whom were over fourteen
years old 1t appears the crimes were all
committed in the church, which adions
the school house, and that the licnd sue
cecded in terrifying his victims into silence
fer over year. The neighborhood is set
tied by llollanders, generally uneduca,cd,
and the children were all of that national
ity. Alton has escaped.
