RELIGIOUS AND EDUCATIONAL.

Corporal punishment is to be inflicted
in the public schools of Baltimore here
after only when absolutely necessary, and
by or in presence of the principal
The grasshoppers have driven 745
Methodist Church members and 1886 Sun
day-school scholars and eight teachers out
of South Kansas within the past year.
Two churches and three parsonages have
been lost to the church through the same
plague.
DIR. Ryerson, of Ontario, places our
public schools, both for completeness and
comprehensiveness of system and the
grandeur of our educational edifices,
ahead of all the world, except those Of
Leipsfc, in Saxony; but he adds that
what we accomplish is still very far from
being equal to the appropriations we ex-
pend.
The Eramiaer and Chroniels, speaking
of the one-sermon a-Sunday plan, says
that the average sermon is not 50 rich IL
putriment as to put the nearer in peril Of
mental dyspepsia; and, in view of the fact
that no two audiences are made up Of the
same persons, is 81 convinced that the sec

The Centennial Committee in Mime
sofa recommend the establishment OF a
frst-class academy, and that pastors in the
State deliver one or more addresses on the
subject of the Baptist centennial educa-
tional movement before the next Baptist
State Convention shall assemble, and that
each of the associations give one full session
to the consideration Of the centennial
movement, and appoint one of its men,
hers to present the views and action OF
the association TO the next State Conyen-
ton.
School Superintendent George, of
Kalamazoo, Mich, says: There is a
class of teachers, am sorry to say, who
look upon their work as a mere make
shift that enables them to keep body and
soul together Their labors are performed
without thought of the high duties belong
ing to their calling. Teaching, as a science,
they know nothing about; they are ac-
quainted with the art merely to the extent
Of turning off the work OF the day, the
week, and the term, anxious principally
for the close Of each, and deeming all out

culture. or preparation for classes even, as
unpaid for and unnecessary"
A correspondent Of the EramtHer, from
Massachusetts. says: :" In this State, the
paradise of Baptist clergymen,' as a dis
tant minister called it the other day, We
had in October, according to the minutes
of the State Convention, 231 pastors.
Against forty-one of these names stands
1872, against fifty-four stands 1873, and
against fifty-nine stands 1874. At least
twenty-five have resigned since October
This shows all the evils of the itinerancy
without any Of its unquestiOned advan-
tages. The Methodist clergymen Of the
State now have longer pastOrates on the
average than the Baptists. 1t surely
would be to the advantage Of many Of our
churches, if their history has lesson, to
hire a pastor for three years, or two, and
on the understanding that the relation was
then to he surely dissolved without a
word from either side save tender good

When drop of rain falls on the sea
it descends with gradually diminishing
velocity, and with increasing size, to a
distance Of several inches. Prof. Rev
nolds demonstrates this with colored
water. Each drop sends down one or
more vortex rings. The actual size of
these rings depends on the size and speed
of the drops. Such transposition of
water from one place to another must tend
to destroy wave motion.

Torches for the Cooling Moth.

For number of years my attention has
been called to the ravages Of the codling
moth among our apples. So numerous
and widespread have they become that
wOrmy apples are now the rule and sound
ones the exception. Various remedies
have been suggested and practiced, such
as hay bands and wooden cloths around
the trees, cans of sweetened water sus.
pended from the limbs Of the trees, etc.
The hay bands in most cases have
proved a positive injury, as they or cloth
would be put on and allowed to remain
during the entire season, thus furnishing
the best possible breeding place for the
worms. The cans catch some moths, but
are not used by enough orchardists to have
any appreciate effect on the number of
sound apples.
Those who have picked up their wind
falls early in the season and fed them to
hogs or cattle, also those who have let
hogs or sheep run in their orchards, have
succeeded in realizing a fair crop of rea-
sonably sound apples. But the number
of persons who have their orchards in a
shape to let the sheep and swine roam at
will among them is comparatively small.
principally because they have not proper
fence around their orchards.
Last March moved into house that
had been used as a storehouse for apples
the previous fall and winter. About the
LIST TO the 18th of April the moths little
brown fellows), about one-half of an inch
long, became so numerous that they COW
cred the windows and at night flew into
the chimneys of our lamps and around so
as to be quite annoying. Acting on this
hint l took a torch, made similar to
torches used in torchlight professions,
and placed it in my small orchard several
nights just after the apples had set. The
result was that gathered sounder lot of
apples last fall than l had for number of
years
The coming season l am going to place
torches at intervals of, say, six rods apart,
over my orchard. l believe if this was
generally practiced the coming season
III ga lpqight get rid of this great enemy
to the apple. l am aware that some sa-
wants claim that the codling moth is not
attracted by light. l know they are.
Carbon oil has become so cheap that the
cost of applying it as remedy is very
triffing@C. ". Root, in Prairie Farmer.

PATENT MEDICINES. That there are
some good patent medicines no intelligent
man dare for q moment deny; and pre-
eminent is the great California hero medi-
cine, VINEGAR BITTERs, discovered by
DR.. J. WALKER, a prominent physician OF
san Francisco. This medicine, although
called Bitters, is not TO be claSsed among
the vile fancy drinks recommended and
sold over the bar by rum tenders, but is a
combination of pure herbalistic extracts
known to possess sterling medicinal quail
ties, and is compounded without the use
in any shape of spirits. Its action upon
the internal system is not stimulating to
the extent that alcoholic poison is, but it
at once attacks blood impurities, and by
removing the original cause destroys the
germs of disease and invites returning
health. Its action upon the stomach and
| liver renders it an almost certain specific
in the most stubborn cases of dyspepsia,
and in truth imparts new life and vigor
to the whole system. 1t is one of the
best medicines ever invented. %

cred by Hon. f.. Barksdale, of the

Springs Reporter and the annual
poem by +. l.. Ross, Esq, of the

To the Owners of Real Estate.

The following, from the Holly
Springs South, is equally applicable
in Madison county:
Your property has been assessed
for taxation for the ensuing four
years, but the valuation placed up
on it is still under the control OF
the Assessor, and will be under the
Board of Supervisors until, and in
Guiding their July meetings. No
owner of real estate should let this
opportunity pass to prevent injus-
tice from being done ir its valuation.
Real estate is great y depressed in
it's market value and is almost un-
productive, and fair, uniform as
sessment must be secured or owners
will suffer. Where the owners have
not attended to this matter in per
son, we dare say, as general rule,
the old assessment has been adopt
ed, and as a general rule, too, this
valuation is manifcstly too high.
After the July Term, your day in
court will have passed.
