hornets nest, in which the stately of
the attacking party has 10 contend
against the power and number OF the

pathetic, appealing strongly to the inter

scribner For August


The publishers of SCRIBNER call atten-
tion to the series of articles by Col.
Waring, now being published in that
magazine, under the title of "a Farmers
Vacation" These papers are claimed to
be among the most amusing as well as
practically valuable illustrated articles
which have appeared for some time past.
Col. Warning is we'll known as an en-
Rineer and q farmer, as well as a grace
full and entertaining writer. In his re-
cent European travels he was naturally
attracted not only by picturesque phases,
--quasnt scenes and quaint people-but
also by various agricultural custom and
devices. His article in the August
number describes the pretty isle of
Guernsey, and tells great deal that is
of interest about the famous so-called
Alderney Cow, which is here sat home. !"
"a MILDLY in Manila" is a rollickfng
little illustrated sketch, which. reads
very like familiar letter TO some old
''cham' at home. Albert Rhodes's
paper, "Along the Seine" is timely
through its summer quality. George W.
Cable, of New Orleans, has q story en-
titled MADAME Delicieuse, Which is
thought by some to be his best work. 1t
will have very foreign smack to Nor
them readers, but they will find it none
3 the less graphic, witty and charming for
that. DIR. Holland, in this number of
''Sevenoaks," celebrates a wedding in
that rural neighborhood. Then there is
d solid essay by G, f. Magoun,. on
Education and Free Thought, also
"a Word of Encouragement for Timid
Lfnguists, 1.-THE Stone Period of the
Antilles Containing some matters not
hitherto made public, " An Eng1ewood

.declination by Prof. -Bacus Of the
charge of the State Normal School.
The Nashville Banner now says:az.a
We regret to announce that Prof.
Gates, last evening, declined to ac-
cept the Superintendency Of the
State Normal School, and the more
so because he impressed the commit.
: tee as being an active,E energetic
gentleman, we'll calculated TO build
up The institution and give it an inn
petus that would be lasting. He
came with excellent recommends
tions. The fact that he had been in.
strumeutal In making the institution
at Albany, New York, Of which he is
still the Superintendent, q decided
success, was a guarantee Of what he
might accomplish for the Stale Nor
NAL School. -
i The Board Of Trnst sesifed to run
the Montgomery Bell Trainings School,
the Normal School and q Collegiate
Department beside. He claimed
that 20 run all these departments
and to fill all the chairs with accept
able instructors, an expenditure of
$4,000 per annum would be requir-
ed. He could not therefore leopard
ize his reputation in running an in
stitution which could not be made q
success simply for wars Of money.
Twelve thousand dollars per annum
would be inadequate. DC was on this
account, therefore, that be declined
the position of Superintendent. go
The Board of Trust now believe
they will have to be cohtent with
running simply the training aEd Nor
NAL Schools. and will make an effort
TO obtain an experienced educator
for those departments, with the nee
essary corps of teachers.
IL ID so late in the season that 1t
will now be somewhat difficult TO Sc
cure the man desired. most educators
having already engaged their ser
vices, but the Board OF thrust are de
termined 10 obtain no other than the
most competent material to be had
and in this they are right. The sue
cess Of the institution, as a matter o.
course. depends largely upon Tho
person whom they shall elevate x
Lhe head Of affairs.
