We are often annoyed, and sometimes
disguised, with the miserable spelling of
preachers, doctors, and others who ought
to know better Even school teachers
often miss it. The late Superintendent
of the public schools of Dayton, must
have been beautiful specimen in this
line. A reporter of the Cincinnati Times
recently interviewed one of the school
board of that city, and gathered the fol-
lowing:
In July, 1871, the male principals in
our public schools were all displaced has
tily, and for no especial reasons. (War-
rem Higley was elected Superintendent,
at salary of $4,000 per annum.) be-
came member of the Board of Educa-
ton in April following. The first thing
which attracted my attention to the
questionable qualifications of the Super
intendent, was his original style of Or
biography. In his reports to the Board,
in written orders to the schools, and
sometimes in lists of words which he sent
to teachers for examination in spelling,
he would spell the commonest words in
way that excited general laughter of
the teachers. For instance:
Comparison.
Privilege.
Recon.
Believe.
Ventilation.
| Bilious.
Resusitate.
Here is a note in Mr.. Higley's own
handwriting (giving us paper) IN when
he spells manuscript manuscript, and dis
cretion discreSsion Collections of this
kind were made by different teachers
who would compete with each other in
the number and variety of their speci-
mems Col. Parker, his assistant, now in
Europe, told me he had fifty-nine; one
lady principal had forty. Such things
did no good to his reputation or that OF

Washington despa hes say that the est-
mates of most of the departm nts are male
up. Those of tue navy are between two and
three millions less than last year, and those
of the war departure 1t about the same. The
estimates of the interior department are 81.
100000 more than last year OF this in-
crease over a million and quarter is due to
deficiencies and increased expenditures of the
Indian service, and is owing chiefly to the
humane policy of feeding instead of fighting
the Indians. The postofh .e departm mt will
not require as much by many thousands for
the extension of the mail service as last
year. The amount of official stamps used by
all the departments will considerably over
run the appropriations. OF the total ap-
preparation of one million eight thousand
dollars for all the departments, considerably
over million has been issued. Toe estl-
| mates for the pension list show decrease of
| halt million. The maximum point of ex-
penditures on this account appears to have
been passed. The list is chiefly diminishing
by minors coming of age. The report will

County one-fourth of the entire Tx Of the

Railroad Accidents.

The number of passengers killed 70 the
great accidents which attract the attention
of the public to the dangers attendant on
railroad travel IS great indeed, but it is after
all in the steadily growing list of deaths Of
employees that the most useless horrors OF
railroad experience are limited at.
The running off the track and the collision,
though the former is generally needless and
the latter always avodable, do not kill SO
great portion of railroad victims as people
commonly imagine. The two most frequent
causes OF death in this State are the bridges
and the stupid arrangement for coupling
cars. Any one who has watched the pa pers
since last fall when law Was passed intend
ed to cure the wrong construction of bridges
must have noticed the sickening frequency
of the heading =" Brakeman Killed.
Why is it that if the bridges on the Gen.
trail and our other roads are SO constructed
that forgetful brakeman can bump bis
brains out in any half doz, n miles that de-
vice for warning him cannot be adopted. 1t
would be an easy matter to fix things SO that
before reaching the beams of bridge a
warning fringe should strike the end fingered
man and so remind him to seek ga fety. A
de- lives in our State might have been
saved this year by such an arrang ement.
The passenger trains are beginning to
have the appearance of not being constructed
for the express purpose of disposlng of as
many hands and arms and lives as POSSIBLE.
The coupling on most of these is SO done at
to be no longer a system of sure murder.
Still many passenger cars have yet the old
fashioned link and pm, and OF course sooner
or later such Car catches it's victim
The freight cars. SO far as come under our
observation, all have this man trap vice in
full working order as yet. The result is not
only death to many worthy laborer who,
with all his care and dread Of ''conplipg. !"
is ground into shapeless mass, but the
driving OF many careful hands to other aud
safer employment. 1t is also a continuous
teaching of men that it is right to take the
chances > as to their: own lives. and SO they
come to be willing to take like chances when
on them depend the lives of others.
It is hardly possib e that human ingenuity,
the inventive genius, of this century, has DOT
devised or cannot devise a means Tor making
the simple operation oil fastening a couple OF
freight cars together safe operation. When
this is done the railroad corporation that re-
tains the present murderous system is guilty
Of MURDER or would be so it it had soul
and punishable body. 80 -fsa -
The men who. have charge of these great
works should see to it that their epployes
are made as safe as the wit of this age can
make them; that they be taught care and
Irace-ce, AID that safety results from their
