Gen. BIRNBY seems to have given the
subject of church property-what ought
properly and fairly to be taxed and what
exempted-vsry careful consideration. His
opinion, a synopsis of which will be found
elsewhere, shows great deal of discrimi-
nation. In the main we do not see what
reasonable objection there can be to his
decision

ALL the predictions to the contrary not
withstanding, business still continues dull
and shows no symptoms of the reaction
which it was expected would take place
The money article in the New York Tri-

"of the city, As whole, presents very little
elf any improvement over that Of several
"weoks or even months past. The activity
anticipated, hoped for, and in some in
"stances, where tho wish was father to the
Thought announced for the fall trade, has

THE Philadelphia Star, very practical little
paper, has some very sensible remarks upon
the discomforts Of summer resorts which we
commend to the genial landlords-an landlords
are genisl-of these establishments :S'There Is
nothing for which sojourners at the sea shore,
or, indeed, at any of the fashionable resorts,
languish so much as fruit. There may be en-
joyments at these weRrisoms homes Of fashion,
and there may be those who are capable Of ap-
precisTing them, but we think them more than
counterbalsnced in favor of the can't getaways
by the tempting, refreshing, ripe fruits always
within their reach in our markets during the
hot months. And then the vegetables. What
q deprivation to fail to see them at all meals.
Who ever saw real Pennsylvania tomato with
its beautiful blood-red flesh, as solid as beef
steak, at Q fashionable watering place, or 9
crisp radish, or Q tender beet, or beans that
were not seemingly strung upon hempen
strings, or potatoes that were not dark and
watery, or corn that was not weasenedis And
then the butter, like the patriarch's foeks,
striped, streaked and speckled,' and old
enough and strong enough TO Vindicate itself;
and the eeefstesks, thin, dry and lestheTy the
milk as blue as q clear sky at midday; coffee
as thick and muddy as the schuyIkill after the
last storm. And last, but not least, the flies,
those sbominable pests, the sbominstion of all
who do not fancy them intermixed with soups
and gravies, or inextricably fastened by foot
and wing TO the oily butter. After all, give US
quiet home ufe."

managed so ds to subserve the in
terests of the institution. In 8
word, his idea is to give all
the minor positions in the departments to
students, at low rates of salary, who could
be graduated every four OF five years, and
sent out to fight the battle of life educated
men. He maintains that the great majority
of the positions in the Departments require
no skill whatever to I'LL them; that in many
cases length of service is Of no value what
ever, q green boy from school being as COM
petent to perform large portion of the
work as the veteran who has been squarter
of century in the Office. We do not know
to what extent this assertion is true; we
mention It only to show that this subject is
in the thought of large number of think
ing men, and may be much nearer accom-
plishment than is supposed.
But we did not start out to discuss the
arguments for and against university, but
to suggest that our leading citizens should,
in some way, endeavor to supplement the
work of the National Teachers Association.
That body appointed committee, whose
duty it shall be to lay the matter before
Congress next December. It is composed
of the following eminent gentlemen: DR..
J. W. Hoyt Madison, Wis; DR.. Andrew
D. White, president of Cornell University;
DR.. Mark Hopkins, ex-president of Will
liams' College; Hon. ]. P. Wickersham,
Superintendent Public Instruction, Harris
burg, Pa; DR.. George P. Harris, president

State University of La; Alexander Hogg,
president of State Agricultural and Mechani-
cal College of Ala; Prof. Joseph Henry,
secretary of the Smithsonian Institute; Hon.
2. Richards, Washington city.
1t seems to US that it is possible to aid
these gentlemen in some substantial way
when the time comes; we are not prepared
to say exactly how, but the question is at
least worthy of consideration. We shall
be glad to print whatever communications
may be sent US Crowded they be of rea-
sonable lengthy upon the subject.

TIE assertion is frequently made In discussing
the Beecher question that all the Western Jour-
malls condemn Mr.. Beecher, while nearly all the
Eastern papers scquit him. This is, Of course,
not true. The following, from the later Ocean,
gives about the average sentiment OF the Western
press: THAT Mr.. BeeoheT has been exceedingly
weak and foolish, all admit. That he has been
guilty Is charged we do not believe. Subsequent
developments may change this conviction, but
carefully following tho whole case, viewing his
letters In tho light Of his eXplanstions, and es-
pecially taking into consideration the probabili
