regard to our public schools. The cum
bersomeness, the unwieldiness,2 of laws
often prevents the good which they are
designed to accomplish. When nature
produces a skeleton of more than ordi-
nary size and clumsiness, we do not
laugh or wonder, provided she clothes 1T
proportionately and gives it proper
place; but were she to bring forth
frame to furnish which the earth itself
could not provide materials, we should
call it monster and her a fool. Let
us be as wise as she. But most of the
responsibility of SO many failures In
teaching does not lie at the door Of our
legislative halls. 1t reaches back into
social life, nay, into family life. Every
school district, every community, every
family, every parent bears a share OF
this responsibility and no individual,
male or female, can plead ignorance, in
ability, or want of interest to such an
extent as to clear himself or herself of
guilt in the matter. | propose in the
forthcoming series of papers to point out
some specific causes of failure in teach
inc. at NARCIssUs.

CASH AND CURRENCY.

France has nearly paid the largest
war indemnity imposed en- nation in
modern times. Germany exacted of her
seven times more than the Allies re-
quired after Waterloo. 1t seemed as
though the nation, already crushed by
defeat and impoverished by war, would
be utterly unable to meet such an enor-
nous demand on her resources. But
the debt has been paid, and the most re-
markablc thing about it is the prompt
ness with which the demand has been
met, the alacrity and enthusiasm with
which the money was subscribed, and
the fact that the nation seems to be
richer to-day than she was three years
ago. According to carefully collected
statistics of M. Bonnet, the value of
coined precious metals before the war
was two hundred millions sterling, and
it is the same to-day. And while her
business is brisk and prosperous, and
her credit is perfectly sound, Germany
has been agitated by a severe financial
crisis. These facts show the reserved
financial strength of the country, and
the confidence of her thrifty people in
her ability and determination to pay
her indebtedness. Frenchmen believe
in France, if in nothing else, and their
patriotic confidence makes her rich.
The paper issue of the Bank of France
was about four hundred million dollars

efore the war, while it has only hun.

before the war, while it has only a hum
dred and fifty million of specie in its
vaults. Yet, there has not been any
depreciation in the value of currency
This is partly owing to the fact that the |
extra issue was for great nationalpu1-
pose and not to stimulate speculation,
and also to the perfect confidence of the
people in the resources and integrity of
the Government. France has always
required larger specie basis for fnan-
cial operations than England, and yet in
England the currency is at par, while in
this country, with from twenty to sixty
millions of specie in the Treasury all
the time, gold commands premium of
from fifteen to twenty per cent. How
is it that in France, in the midst of her
desolatlon and in the throes of revo-
luton, with certain war staring them
in the face, currency is at par, while in
this country, the richest in the world
and at peace with all mankind. curren-
cy is from fifteen to twenty FER cent be-
low par? This question is important,
and deserves the attention of economists
and fnanciers. Perhaps one reason of
this depreciation in currency is the fact
/ hot NJ fhar
and hence are a nation of debtors, while
France sells more than she buys. But
this fails to account for discrepancy
so marked as exists between gold and
greenbacks. One reason undoubtedly is
that we borrow SO largely in foreign mar
kets to build railroads and make cher
public improvements. We are a naion
of borrowers. Stocks and bonds of al
most every railroad and canal in this
country are held abroad, and the gold Of
the country is continually drained off tt
pay dividens. This goes far to account
for the discrepancy, but leaves a larg
margin still to be explained. And i
would be well for Secretary Richardson
to set himself to solve the problem
There would seem to be no good reason
why our currency should not be tn
equivalent of gold, and pass for its nom
inal value in the markets of the world

turns the grindstone, and while in the
act was caught by the coupling of the
shafts, thrown around it and caught by
the belt which he was placing on the

time who, seeing the accident. hurried
to stop the machinery, but before this
could be done, the boy was literally torn
to pieces.-A more sickening sight we
have never seen. The head was entirely
severed from the body, the legs and
arms cut off in two or three different
places and the bowels torn completely

PALAoE-CARs FOR ENGLAND.-The
first consignment of cars to England has
been shipped from Montreal by the DOM
inion line of steamers. 1t consists of
three parlor-cars and three sleepers,
which were built in the company's shops
at Detroit, and so constructed as to be
perfectly ready to be built on their ar
rival in cases by sections, the stills and
long timbers strapped together. on ar
irving at Liverpool, they will be convey
ed to the Midland Company's shops at
Derby, and there built under the super
vision of Mr.. A. B. Pullam and Mr..
Longstreet, mechanical superintendent
OF the Pullman Company. who will take
out corps of men from the Detroit
shops. Everything is ready except the
wheels. The English roads use larger
wheel than can be procured here, and
hence the necessity for procuring them
in England.

SUMMER VISITORS.

The number of persons who annually
leave the cities for the quiet and pleas
ure of the country, during the heated
and unhealthy term is greatly on the
increase. There is scarcely a village In
the state where visitors are not found
among friends, or in the places to them
most agreeable. We welcome them
among us, and only wish that we were
better and more generally prepared to
receive them. We have attractions in
this part of Vermont that do, and will
continue to call many among us. Our
scenery is unsurpassed for beauty and
picturesqueness the hills and the
mountains are truly ..green the val
leys are rich in verdure the streams
are beautiful and pleasing; the forests
are cool and refreshing. If one is de-
lighted with the grandeur and majesty

charming streams and lakes, with their
pleasing environs, let him come into this
part of Vermont and visit Lake Caspian,
Lake Willoughby, Lake Memphremagog
and Belle Water; if he wishes to go

let him come to our hills and among our

can be accommodated. Many private

farmers, can find room and provide ex

be mutually advantageous to the visitol
and the people. They desire to ge
away from business for season, ane
are willing to pay well for the accom-

ceive. We are willing to provide thes
things at reasonable rates. This is tn
way it ought to be, for they grow wealth,

Resolutions of Respect to the Memory
Of'the late Hon. WIN. ID. Bowie,

At a meeting Of the Board of Directors of the
Baltimore and Potomac Railroad Company, held
on the Sd day of September, 1878, the following
preamble and resolutions were unanim ously
adopted:
Whereas, it has been the will of the All-wise
Disposer Of human events to take from among
us our late respected friend and colleague, Col
WILLIAM d. BOWIE, who for several years past
has been our fellow laborer in managing the
affairs of this company; therefore,
ResolUed, That while we desire to acquiesce
without complaint in this dispensation of Di-
vine Providence, we cannot but lament the loss
we have sustained by his removal both as indi-
viduals and as members of this corporation.
ResolOed, That we would express in this man.
ner our high estimation of his amiable qualit es
as man, and of his valuable services so long
and willingly rendered as Director of the Bal
timore and Potomac Railroad Company, of
which eregret we must henceforth be deprived.
ResolOed, That the proceedings of this meet
ing be published as a deserved testimony to the
worth of one who has passed away from our
midst in the maturity of his years and -nseful-
ness, and that our cordial sympathies, in their
bereavement, be communicated to his immedi-
ate family. S. LITTLE, Secretary.

Thursday morning of last week, directly
