servant entirely unreliable. It is pity
the people OF Michigan did not select an
able and competent man to represent
them in the Senate OF the United States.

affairs were rather oderous and were not
calculated tn Improve the prospects of
the party that permitted them to take
place. But it appears from the kilograms
that the era Of investigations is not yet
closed. The Democrats announce that
it is their intention to devote much of
their time to ferreting out matters and
things. OF course as the administration
has nothing to conceal, for it has always
been noted for purity and economy, it has
nothing to fear and will doubtless lend
its aid to promote searching investiga.
ton into all its doings. The innocent
never fear inquiry; on the contrary,
court and delight in it. 80 there is nc
doubt that when the Democratic Con
gress meets, that Grant and his Cabine,
will meet it half way and throw wide "
doors leading to the secret 'ecesses Vi

followed by scarlet fever, later by smallpox.
and some years after by typhoid fever, to say
nothing of catarrh, fits and numerous absces-

Mrs. Horace Mann, whose experience i.
certainly worth something on this subject
writes as follows to the Herald of Health:
do not share in the fears expressed by
President Eliot, Of a demoralizing influence
from the coeducation of the sexes. Expert
ence has amply proved that such fears are
groundless. Young men and women have
long been educated together in country high
schools, in academies and normal schools,
and of late in colleges, and the result has
been satisfactory-a healthy stimulus, a
great enjoyment, and productive of mutual
self-respect. But agree with him that
Harvard College is not the place to try it in
at present, for several reasons-the tradition
al prejudice, the want of proper arrange
ments, tie very low moral character OF the
college community but think the history
of Anti"ch College, where the system was
carried out under grea. advantages, is suf-
ficient testimony to the success and good
effects OF coeducation as well as to the posi-
bility of harmonious persistent study for
women.
The only feature of it that was ever OBJ
ieciionable in my eyes has been the gather
ing of young girls into the preparatory
school, where they should enter at the age
of twelve 1t is unfortunate enough to be
obliged to send young boys away from home,

In the trimming of children from the very
first, by precept and by thri e powerful ex-
ample, the principle of h ,nor should be
strengthened. They should be taught never
to listen to conversation not meant for them.
never to speak unkindly of any one, never
to trespass on another's ri ghts. Sometimes
this white flower of honor rows spontaneous
ly from strange soils. but oftener it needs
cultivation. 1t would be curious to study
the different standards of honor among DIFF
ierent classes of people if it were not rather
apart from the purpose Of this article. Thus
among school-boys certain things are regard
ed as dishonorable, and whoever infrinces
upon their unwritten code is peedily sent to
coventry. In the army there is wel-un-
derstood though not specially described the
ory of honor, and whoever tres passes against
it, is in army parlance guilty Of conduct un-
becoming ian officer and a ge ntlez:an." In
business and in society, wherever people are
brought into contact, there rre strong, in
tangible rules which cannot afely be broken
through, which are stronger because intan
gible, and which depend for their mainte-
nance almost entirely upon the sentiment Of
manly honor.-Harpers B s,ar.
