mr.. BCeCher'S Plea for E4tinw win,
" the X nafe.

( avow myself as an advocate for the rights of
the knife. Now, custom has reduced it to the
mere function Of cutting up ones food. That
done, it is laid down and fork serves every 9TH
or purpose. By practice one gains unexpected
dexterity In using fork for purposes to
which 1t is i'll adapted. The Chinese, in like
manner. make awkward chop sticks rarely ser-
viceable, by practice little short of legerdemain;
but is that good reason for tho
use OF chop sticks A fork, a.
now made, is untitled to pierce any morsel
upon ita tines, and yet they are sharp enough to
atiiict the tongue Il carelessly used. They are
spit 80 ~ to be useless for liquids, and yet they
are used ~ II they were spoons. The fork COM
pels the manipulation to poke and push and nile
up the food material, which teIds to fail back
and apart: h 10 made to pursue the dainty It'd
sides, around the plate in hopeless chase, and
atlength bit Of bread is called in ~ an auxili-
~, and thus while the elim-legged fork in one
hand y chasing slim liquid mouthful, q
wad OF bread IN the other goes moppng and
soppng around to form corner, and between
the two is At length accomplished what is called
genteel feeding Meanwhile, q broad knife il
lifted for the very function which the fork re-
fuses ana tho wad Of bread i'll performs. The
reasons for refusing the knife as an active feed
ing implement are worthy Of the awkward prac-
uce. 1T is liable to cut the mouth" no more
than fork is to stick into lip or tongue
II men ate with razors there would be
some reason for avoidance. But table
kniyes arc blunt edged. 1t is even difficult
to make them cut when ono tries, and il they
are properly used the back OF the blade will be
turned TO the mouth. We do not object to the
fork, but demand q restoration Of the knife
from bAnishment. We do not desire to enforce
its use, but such liberation as shall leave each
one free to use the knife for conveying food to
the mouth when it is most convenient, and the
fork when that III preferred. Equal rights We
demand for black aud white, for home-born or
immigrant for rich and poor, for men and wo-
men, and for knives and forks.-Ne,o York

QUIZ QUESTS PROM THE BLACK SHALLOW THEY
-t LOOK AND WHAT THEY BRING.
On Tuesday some $50 Mennonitss, from tho
Russian provinces near the Black Sea, arrived by
the Schiller, OF tho Eagle line, At New York. As
some 200 Of the last invoice from Poland were yet
in Castle Garden there was quite respectable
gathering Of these peaceful men. They were all
Germans. but having lived all their lives in Rus
sia their German had q curious Ruseian flavor,
which did not at all improve the harsh Teutonio
sounds. They were dressed in their primitive
homespun garments, which were usually Of coarse
wool and Of tho most primitive fashion.
Their leaders said that LOCO moro were OK
pected BY the Teutonia, which is now due. Over
2, 900 are already in this country and as thore
are come 40, 0OOin Russia, we may expect large
addition to this number. They all want to avoid
military duty, which conflicts with their relig-
ious belief, and expect to pass their days peace
fully in the Western Territories Of America
They are not afraid OF the Indians, and will fight
s,ifiiciently if necessary, to save their scalps.
Tho $50 who arrived yesterday Will leave to-day
for Kansas and DAkota. w .-
Wolhynia, whore great many Of theee Men,
nonites came from, must be remarkably cheap
place to live, A reporter asked the emigrsnts
to tell him the prices Of their various articles OF
wear, and fromttheir answers it would appear
that handsome" suit Of clothes, tit for Sunday
wear, can be bought there for el5. The hats
which they wore cost about eighty cents, the
boots from ss to -. -
Farm laborers in those Russian provinces near
the Black Sea are only paid forty rubles per
year, about s2. so a month, and no wonder that
they expect to improve their condition by COM
ing to this country. Ono Of tho men with whom
the reporter conyersed had been in this country
before. He WAS unable to live on tho starvation
wages Of Poland, and has now returned to this
country determined never to leave 1t again,
Some Of the Msnnonites bring . good deal Of
money, many as much as IL 900 or $4,000, but
great many are poor. They all seem to be full
of homo and anYiOuA THAR Oayv hOrnAu
They have been four weeks on the way, having
tarried ten days in Hamburg, and their rather
hsgeard faces testify to the hsrdships Of the
long journey.

Rev. DR.. Barnas Searn, agent OF the Peabody
fund, was present at . teachers' meeting in
Stanton, Va, last week, and in the course Of
remarks there made said tha. he did not believe
that mixed schools would ever he enforced.
He did not believe it could be done. He denied
that Congress had the physical power to enforce
mixed schools, laying aside the want Of copsti-
tutional power. Such . system cannot be iin-
posed OH State. A State has the power to
abolish it's system Of public schools any day.
Moreover, the State can refuse to raise the mon
ey necessary for the support Of the system.
Then what becomes of the schools? They dis
appear at once. Some persons, through ,falae
views, may bo in favor OF seating the two races
side by side on the same benches, but ca4 Con-
gress compel both races to attend? No, it can
not. Some philanthropsts,i in urging the mixed
school system, are in earnest in their efforts to
benefit an ignorant race but the question
is, will 1t benefit them Among the Represen-
tatves Of twelve states whom he met In Wash
ington he only found one who was in favor Of
mixed schools, and he was from South Carolina
The great majority Of those fsvoring tho civil
rights bill desire only that the colored race shall
have equal educational facilities with the whites.
Many OF the Senators who voted for 1t were
hoping all the time 1t would be defeated, and
