school Government.

One Of the most difficult things to find
among teachers is the ability to govern
properly a school, Examiners generally
consider literary qualifications of more
Importance than governing power. and an.
nually certify teachers who are deficient
in this essential. Children are sent to
school to be governed as we'll as taught ;
therefore, teachers should be employed
who can both govern and teach. There
seems to be a diversity Of opinion among
teachers, asto what constitutes good gov,
ernmeut, and the means that should be
employed to secure it. Some contend
that fear should be the controlling ele.
ment. Others that the rod should never
be used. Our most enlightened teacher,
are Of the opinion that corporal punish-
meat should be inflicted only as a last re-
sort. All recognize the necessity of force
in the government of a nation why not
then in the school?
1t is, l think. Impossible for every

sr) to get along without using the rod to
some extent. Scholars who are hardened
by the evil deeds Of years. and who, if
not corrected, would bring discord into
tie school, should be co npelled. by cor,
poral punishment, to yield obedience to
just laws. Punishment should be infic-
ted in sorrow, rather than in anger.
Children are quick to discern the spirit Of
an act. If the hand Of the teacher is
guided BY passion, the child perceive: It,

Compulsory Education.

Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, in a recent
lecture on this subject favored the most
advanced State of popular intelligence :
He held it to be the important element
Of military, as it was the German school
house that carried the day against France,
and it was the superior intelligence of the
people of the North that won in the war
with the South. Brains always command
the highest compensation and the noblest
satisfaction. He denied that all men are
alike-they are equal before the law,
but they were no more alike than trees iu
an orchard some of (which bear fruit largely
every year, while others bear only a little,
once in two, three, or five years, and SO
on.
Touching compulsory education, he held
that the State clearly has the right to en-.
force secular education. Religious sects
must hold of their hands they had pro-
duced more %strifes, discords, and blood
shed than anything else besides in this
world; therefore, when be saw a priest
enter the school as an educator, he would
ask him he same as a priest or as a cit
lien. If he answered as a priest, then he
should be told to go; but if he answered |:
Il come as a citizen, although wearing
the pricstly garb," then he should. be told
to come. Religious and moral teaching
must be left to the church and the house.
hold-best done, he believed in the latter
but that must not be neglected, for they
were all important and finally, on that
subject, he held that every citizen should
go to the ballot.box through the school.
house.
lie believed compulsory education to
be true craftsmanship under every form
OF government.
The lecture was thorough, and caused
from first to last an intense interest in the
speaker and his utterances.

The course OF money was very erratic
ts-day, changes in price being both
frequent and wide. Early in the day
there was an ample supply and bor-
rowers on call were accommodated at
S per cent, but later the rate was ad-
vanced to per cent, and during the
street dealings in the afternoon there
was some little business at per cent.
For time this rate was bid and it

Sheep In Orchards.

J. Higgins stated at late meeting Of
the Alton Horticultural Society, that
he had long been in the practice of
turning sheep into his apple orchards
and as long as they have green
pasture they will not touch the bark Of
the trees, but they are carefully watch
ed. He has one old sheep only that
knows how good apple bark is. When
there is snow on the ground, the sheep
will OF course eat the bark. But the
only time when the presence OF the
sheep is needed, is in summer when the
wormy fruit is propping. We know q
farmer in Western New York who
turns his sheep in his large orchard
during the day, and into another field
at night; they never touch the trees,
and he finds the codling moth growing
scarcer each successive year.

LONG BRANCH RACES

LONG BRANCH, August 26.-This il
the second day of the extra meeting o1
the Monmouth Park Association. The
weather is somewhat cooler, than the
few preceding days, but towards noon
the sun shone splendidly, making ii
uncomfortably warm. The attendance
on the race course was equal 10 the
first day, and included the elite OF the
Branch. The number OF carriages fill
led with magnificently attired ladies
appeared exceedingly in excess Of any
previous day OF the races. There were
many excursionists from New York
and Philadelphia, by the extra trains.
There were three events on the pro-
gramme, the interest being centered in
the race for the Cottagers' cup. The
first race was for the Cottagers' cup, a
valuable piece of plate, with 5000 adj
ded, for three year olds, ,iwinners exclude
ed; the second horse to receive SlOO,
distance one mile and half. 1t was
contested for by Warlike, Stonehed ge
and Whisper. The race was won by
Stonehedge, with Warlike second and
Whisper last. Time 3:44t.
The second race was selling race
for all ages for a purse OF $500, winner
to be sold for $1,000, distance one
mile and a quarter. There were
eight entries. Business was the
iavorire in the pools. A good start
was made from the I pole, Hattie
