Things are not, after al, 80 bad as
they might be in Texas, notwithstand-
ing the periodical jeremiads of the
Democratic press. The record of the
two years, during which Governor
Davis has been at the head of affairs,
shows condition Of progress and i'm
provement which would be creditable
to States more favoably situated,
We have the authority ofthe Houston
Union for saying that during the pc
Rod mentioned, two thousand free
schools have been put in operation,
over SIX hundred miles of railroad
have been constructed, rl1ffanism has
been ssernly dealt with, and the i'm
migration has been larger than in any
six preceding years. But this is
not all Private enterprises have
fourished to degree never known be-
fore, and large amount of capital
has been drawn into the State to
assist in their development. If all
this be tue result of despotism under
a Republican Governor the Texans
won't be sorry to have it continued.

cothe have employed teacher of mu-
sic in the Public Schools at salary
Of $50 month, and command him
to walk into the colored schools and
tune up his vocal organ in the same
key that he strikes IN the white schools
That's business. We have no teach
er IN our schools, but it is to be hop
ed that some arrangements will be
made to have vocal music taught in
our schools. Scholars who wish to
study music, and there is q great
number of them, are compelled to
take their lessons ont of school, and
it constantly interrupts and seriously
interferes, with order and discip-
line. Besides, there is lamentable
deficiency in this accomplishment
among the young people, notwith-
standing Mr.. Neal has done much to-
ward improving those who have been
under his immediate charge for the

be made more general ronton

He stared at her; but she beckoned
him SO impatiently to obey, that, after
a seconds hesitation, he did So
guessing, in part, at least, the cause
of her anxiety. Perhaps he was not

himself. At all events. he whipped up
his horses with laudable zeal, and, in

Driving past the large works,
where the sound of machinery
had, for the present, stopped, and
past the deserted offices (of which
Hugh's was one), they came to the
opening of the principal descent into
the mine. 1t was not here, however,
that significant and terrible scene
was enacting. Farther away, to the
right, a new shaft had been lately
sunk, and entirely new excavations
understanding which, as Marga-
ret well remembered, Hugh had been
full of eager interest and hope. Sew
eral older-engineers had opposed the
move; but he had carried everything
before him with the company and al
ready the most favorable results had
been anticipated. He had brought
home trir1mphantly several rich spec
linens of ore, and spoke gayly of the
chagrin of those who had prophesied
utter failure for the project. Now
was this to be the end7
It certainly looked so. Around
the fatal spot was gathered crowd
of many men and not a few women;
the former looking as men only look
in the face-o some terrible tragedy;
the latter, for the most part, wailing
loudly, or sobbing dry sobs with that
restraint of grief which is more terri
BILE to behold than its widest aban-
donment- Margaret alighted here,
and made her way through the throng
to where the superintendent was
standing, just at the mouth of the
opening.
"Mr. Beresford, she said, touch
ing his arm, sis it true that Hugh is
In there7"
''Good Heavens, Miss Cb,>:chill!"
said Mr. Beresford, turning round
with start. 'Is it possible go are
heres My dear young lady, this will

looking at him with her pale, set face
''Tell me the truth at once. I must
know"
"Well, then-yes, he is thereI" he
said, desperately. 'Now, for Gods
sake, come away! Thisi is no placeior
you!"
She paid no heed to his adjuration.
She only caught his arm, and asked
another question through his white /
lips.

A resolution in the Illinois Legis-
lature relative to school books and
their lack of uniformity, and the fre-
quent changes made of them at the
caprice of teachers, or. something
worse, In the interests of publishers,
excites attention. Parents and guard
ians, says an exchange, have endured
expense and pupils annoyance, all
of which tends to ineficiency and
hinders the progress OF scholars, un-
til forbearance has no longer been
virtuous. The resolution requires
the preparation of law providing
for series of school books for use In
public schools and strikes at serious
wrong of long standing. No more
honestly founded complaint exists
than that arising from the present
system. School books hardly get in
to the hands of pupils before some
speculating agent obtains the ear of
the school directors, and straightway,
before the chubby fingers of scholars
have left their peculiar imprint upon
its covers, orders issue changing the
book to some other of questionable
value.

The UsurY Laws.

The rural mind moves slowly, but
when it knows it knows, and it is NOT
subject thereafter to be blown about
by every wind of doctrine. The
common belief for hundreds of years
has been that the usurious man was a
wicked man, and we can hardly ex-
pect everybody to jump instantly to
the opposite conclusion, however un-
questioned it has long been by philo-
sophicai writer's. The petitions sent
to Albany Tor the abolition of the
usury laws came from cities where
men deal largely in money, and are
constant borrowers and lenders in the
way of trade. They know that any
laws against the free interchange Of
money create exorbitant rates of IN
terest and do not prevent them.
The lender charges for the risk of
offending the law in addition to the
current market value of the commod-
ity. But the farmer, who, if he ever
borrows, borrows on bond and mort
gage, and finds it hard to meet the
constant payment OF interest which
goes on year after year with unvary
ing regularity and difficulty, thinks
the law protects him from paying q
higher rate. He does not know that
it is not the law, but, the worth of
money, thatgoveEns his loan, and that
he could not borrow at all if it were
otherwise. But it is not worth while
to be impatient at en- ignorance which
can only be corrected in time, but
which, when once corrected, will
never return again. Usury is one of
those evils which have grown with
clViilZatlon, and which do not dIsap-
pear at the first loud protest. Where
there was one who, twenty-five years
ago, had a doubt upon the propriety
Of laws against it, there are now
thousands who laugh and scoff at an
old abuse. 1t viii disappear

seem as incredible as that a compare

with his hands was a serf,
