The Schooling efllfs.

That this lie is q stage on which to
develop the human soul is scarcely to
be doubted. All our good things are
evolved from the conditions of human
life. The evolution of faculty: int
conduct and into character; the fixing
of principles in q mans life, 80 that
they become powers in him-these
things are accomplished by the school,
ing of life itself. No man inherits
activity, ontorpriSo, foresight, justice,
benevolence, the finer feelings. They
are developed in him by training; and
it is training for which the world is
specially adapted. It is q good grind
ing world. It is good sharp
ening world. 1t is not q restful
world altogether. It is a world that
wakes men up, and by ten thousand
necessities on every side compels them
to think, and to think far ahead to
forbear, and to deny themselves to
restrain self indulgence; to consider
others as we'll as themselves !; to COM
b1ne thoughts, and to systematize
them. It is world which is educat-
ing men into practical philosophy and
economy. The world, by its very ne
cessitles, engenders in men these vari-
GUS traits; and It is fair, since it does
so universally, to say that it was de.

A Warning to Young Ladies.

Colonel Thomas Turner, of Mount
Sterling, Ky., en- arriving at hotel in
Winchester, Tenn, recently, was con.
siderably surprised to be met by O
strange young lady, who threw her
arms around his neck and kissed him.
He had scarcely recovered from this
salutation when second young lady,
very handsome, evidently a sister OF
the first, also rushed after him and
greeted him in a similarly affsctionate
manner. Then tho blushing colonel
drew back, and wanted to know il
there were any more and what it oil
meant! The young ladies' took second
and closer look, gave little scream OF
dismay, and disappeared. They had
expected a long absent uncle, who
closely resemblcd Colonel Turner, and
now he is going from hotel to hotel
looking for young ladies' who are OK
pecting uncles.

A Curious Statement.

A correspondent of the Country Cen
tleman has discovered that, as a law Of
nature, every spotted dog has the end
of his tail white, and every spotted cat
the end of the tail black. He says he
has examined many dogs and cats in
France, England and America, and
always noticed the same result. Our
former Minister to Japan, Mr.. Harris,
first mentioned the fact concerning the
dog in letter published some years
since. He has looked at many paint
ings of dogs in the galleries of Paris
and elsewhere in regard to this, and
found even there the dogs spotted,
always in order, proving to him that
the artist had invariably copied after
nature.

Natures ScaYcnger.

The remark of Muspratt that iron is
Natures scavener has been justified by
recent studies, in which it las been
shown that scraps of iron thrown into
cisterns of water speedily destroy all
sewge contamination. Medlock has
proved, by q series of experiments,
that iron produces nitrous acid bv its
action on the heterogeneous organic
matter, which is tho most destructive
power nature has. He has found as a
general result that by allowing water
to be IN contact with a large surface of
iron, in about forty-eight hours eyery
trace of organic matter was either de-.
stroyed or rendered insoluble, in which
state it could be purified effectually by
filtration.

An American Lady Lecturer Mobbed ut
Halifax.
From the Albany Journal.

From the Albany Journal
If HALIFAX audiences habitually conduct
themselves in such brutal and outrage
Gus manner as one did last Monday nil ht,
they and tue authorities who permit it
disgrace q civilized community, and
should be removed to some deso]ate spot
in the far North. On that evening it had
been announced that Miss Mattio GAYLORD,
Of Melrose, Mass, young lady about
lecture entitled "Ocean to Ocean," in
Temperance Hall, and an audience Of
about one thousand apparently respectable
persons assembled, but during her lecture
Miss Gaylord was frequently interrupted
and compelled to sit down, jeered at,
hoQted and abused in tho most shameful
manner. A quantity of powder was pur.
posely exploded in the entry, creating a
panic in the hall, particularly in the gallery
portion Of it, but during the excitemen,
that ensued no one happened to be in
jured.
When Miss Gaylord cloeed her lecture
she' was followed to the box Office by q
mob of persons, who attacked the Office,
beat it in over her head, stole q gold
watch and other property valued at $500
from her, kicked her, and dragged her
from the room. She was carried to her
stopping place in q carriage, and was
found to be injured so badly that the
services Of physician were necessary,
The police were applied to stop the riot
Gus proceedings, but they refused. Late,
in the evening, Massachusetts newspaper
publisher, who happened to be present al
the meeting was assailed on the street by
party of roughe, who remarked that he
was "nothlng but Yankee"
They were persuaded, however, to let him
alone. A gentleman, who was present,
describes the scene as one of q most dis
graceful character from commencement to
end, and says that q portion of the audience
seemed to have perfect hatred for the
young lady, simply because she was q
Yankee. He thinks that about one-third
of the audience took part in the proceed
ings, and the remainder looked on with
out making any attempt to put stop to
their actions.

A Remarkable Running Race at Pros
pect Park.

4 Remarkable Running Race at Pros
pect Park.
The New York Herald furnishes the
following: "Thos second day of the
fall Meeting of the Prospect Park Fair
Ground Association was one of the
most remarkable events in the annals
of the American turf. The most prom
inent sporting men declared that never
was such racing on any other course in
the world. The first race was for q
purse of 8, 900, one milo and three
quarters. For this were enter
ed Coffee's lightning colt Chicka.
dilly, Utica, Benjamin, and Mart
Jordan. Benjamin aud Mart Jordan
made dead heat, and the trial be-
tween them for the prize was passed
over until other events on the card
came of, when they were called upon
to decide the matter, and they had
another run. The judges again de-
clared the affair q dead heat. The
third heat was declared dead, and the
horses were obliged to contend again,
BENJAMIN finally won. It was the best
and most closely contested race that
ever took place in this country. Time,
Bill, 1921, BIG, 3:193.
The second race, for purse of $500,
all ages, two-mile heats. The follow
ing were entered: Village Blacksmith,
Warlike, Maid of Orange, Lizzie Lu-
cas-, Gerold aud Mildew. In the first
heat it was supposed dead heat had
been made By Mildew, Warlike and
Village Blacksmith, with Lizzie Lucas
about neck behind. The judges,
however, finally decided the heat won
by Mildew in 8:z3 IL. Village Black
smith won the second heat by length,
from Warlike, thus winning the heat
and the race by distancing the winner,
as, under the rule, all other horses had
to 20 the stable.
For the third race, a selling race for
all ages, and one half mile, purse of
$500, the following ran: Wheatley,
Hattie O'Neil, Camden, and liverpool.
The first was q dead heat between Hat
tie O'Neil and Wheatley, in 1:134.
They ran the dead heat of, Wheatley
winning very easily by three lengths,
in 2:25.
This is the first time, says the Her
aid, in the history of racing of two
horses making three dead heats in a
dash race.

The Source III Power.
By LIZZIE DorEN.
Tho noblest'lesson taught by llfo
To every great heroic soul,
Who seeks to conquer i'll tho strife,
Is Belf-cOntrol.
Truth grants no sccpter to the hand
Where pride and passion hold the sway;
He who with honor would command,
Must first obey.
An honest doubt is often tho seed
OF truth, that bright cclls tial flower,
And weakness, through some noble deed,
Is changed to power.
The bravo Of heart, the pure in mind,
Will dare to sec tho truth ar'ght;
While coward souls, pcrvcrsc and bind,
Will shun tho light.
Still would the sun A. brightly slime;
And truth. by all the world opposed,
Is still divine.
Tho servlle reverence of the past,
Which marks tho worship OF to-day,
Must pass.away.
And strength q mind ,aaa breadth OF thought
And inspiration from above.
Shall be by earnest spirits sought,
In truth aud love.
A voice, whose word at power sublime
Transcends the might ofhunIan law,
Shall in tho truths appointed time
The world o'erawe.
Then Tyranny, which oft uufurled
Her bl0ud-stained banner to tue sky"
Shall from her throne OF power be hurled,
And, helpless, die.
The world is sick and sore ut heart.
With patient hope deferred too long,
Ard seeks Tor one who knows the art,
To make her strong.
The man who dares to think. to live
True to his souls divinest light,
Will to the world an Impulse give
For truth and right.
The cross may meet his noblest deeds,
The faggot blaze At every word;
Yet DER tho angry strife Of creeds
He will be heard.
Thus through the fire and through the food
All bruised, and SCARED, and battle-worn,
Baptized in sweat, and tears, and blood,
Great souls are born.
That which is crucified to-day,
The distant future shall adore,
And Truths, which Error seeks to slay,
Live evermOre.
Great souls e'er set their standard high,
And tolllng on through storm and night,
They wake the nations with their cry
For Light |" more Light!'
The world will learn, when wiser grown,
This lesson comes with every hour,
That Right is Might, and Truth alone
The source Of power.

the following dispatch Wednesday:
UNITED STATES STEAMER JUNArA,l
ST. JOINS, N. F., Sept. 10.
The Hon. G. IT. Robeson, Secretary Ct
the Navy, Warrington, ID. C.
The Juniata arrived to day. Met
the Tigress at Uppernavik and coaled
her. She sailed August IL for Little
ton Island. The Tigress met the Juni-
ata's steam launch, Lieut.. belong, off
Tessnisak, who had been to Cape York
in the launch, and returned to Disco.
Met the Tigress again and coaled her.
Commander Green reports that the
camp of the Po]aris was found
August IA, off Littleton island,
latitude Is degrees q minutes
north, longitude 70 degrees 46 min .
tltes west. The crew of the Polaris
were all we'll. Had gone south two
months before in two boats made from
the ship. The Polaris sank one month
later. The Tigress kept a careful
lookout going north and coming south.
There were 10 signs. Stopped at all
settlements for news. The crew of the
Polaris are probably on board of a
whaler from Cape York. The Tig:ess
left Disco August Is. for the Labrador
coast, to continue the search as long as
coal and season will permit.

The above dispatch was received
from Commander Braine, commanding
the Juniata. Littleton Island referred
to. IS about 60 miles north of North
cumberland Island, where the party
rescued from the Polaris supposed
they had left her. It is q little south
of the life boat depot of 1853. The
probability is that the Tyson party
we're mistaken rs to the locality of
their separation from the Polaris, and
that it was really Littleton Island in
stead of Northumberland Island. It is
hardly possible that, after separation,
the Polaris in her disabled condition
succeeded in any way IN reaching a
point 60 miles further north. It is
understood orders were sent to Com
mander Braine to continue the search
for the crew of the Polaris.

BRUssRLs, August 8, 1873.
MY DEAR G.:-I have some photo
graphs of England which I think may
interest you: have been pretty we'll
over it-north, east, west, and partially
through the south. The whole coun.
try is thickly covered with fire woods
and dotted with superb trees; the
hedge-rows, green and furnishing,
covered with wild roses; the grain
fields, absolutely covered with the
small scarlet poppy, give landscape ef-
fects equally novel and changing. I
can conceive no more delightful scene
than drive along an English road;
level, smooth and soft, so as not to be
muddy, nor yet hurt your horses feet;
Indigenous on each side, large elms or
beeches shading it mile after mile, the
hedge itself redolent with the bloom of
the eglantine and the wild rose, while
the turf is thickly dotted with scarlet
peoples. On one side of the carriage.
way is another road for horseback
travellers, say ten feet wide; on the
other foot-path-all as neat and clean
as drive in the Capitol Square.
The law of the road in England diff
fers from the Virginian. Riding or
driving you turn to the left; walking
you 90 to the right. With us, you
know, we universally take the right.
THE PEOPLE.
I do not see in the towns any marked

crowd IN London or Richmond would
hardly show any noticeable difference
except OH occasional uniform or livery
in the former, and the English crowd
is more polite and quiet. The coach
man is the only typical Englishman I
have seen. Large head, big jaws,
square face, eyes inclined to pop, he
is as much like his congenor-the bull
dog-as an animal in red~collared and
cuffed coat and Kerseymere tights and
top-boots can be like one in his natural
attire. The English coachman gentle
mans coachman) never speaks. He
sits imperturbably on his box, his
shoulders square, his left hand holding
the reins, the right rein between his
two middle fingers; his whip in his
right, at an angle of about fifty de-
grees, two fingers of it resting lightly
on his rein; face clean and shaver.
He takes no notice of things above or
below. Orders are communicated to
him through Jemes, who sits by him,
and who opens the carriage door, and
hops up and down when bid. But the
coachman never moves. As he passes
hia brother dignity on another hOx. he
salutes with his whip, never moving an
eye or a muscle. The salute is gentle
lowering of the end of the whip. When
he has discharged his duty, he drives
to the coach-house, hands the reins to
his minion-the helper-dismounts,
and re.ires, while his horses are wash
ed scraped, and rubbed. A mighty
man ia he have seen no finer sipht in
