How, TO- Teach Political Economy
-
In the LYceun Institute. {

Political Economy is one OF the rsost import
ant branches of study, because it covers the
most practical relations of life. How to obtain
subsistence for the body and the means of COM
fort for tho household is the first question thai
concerns the mass OF men, and ought TO be thos
first question with every young person. No ona'
ought to consider his father rich enough to-
| raise him above the necessity OF applying tho
first efforts OF his early MANHOOD to the purposes
OF obtaining living.
The Lyceum method can be fully understood
| by single illustration. Suppose we are en-.
tering upon the topic Of Labor as an elemeht.of
\ production. The Professor gives lecture
chiefly for the purpose OF showing the class
how to Investigate it fer themselves. He then
assigns tho leading authors to the memhaCs or
the class; to one, Adam Smiths Wealth, or
Nations, to- another, Says Work, to another, Siss-
mondi, to a fourth, Senator Tracey, to q, ffths
j. S. Mills Work, To- sixth, ThorntoM. on I.a-
bor, TO q seventh, Carey, to the eighth, List. to
| the ninth, the Work. by Horace Greeley, and
so on through the whole class Probably shree
days should be given to preparation, far the
| recitation. Each one is requiretgtp c0,naense
into as brief compass as posalble tJao most
important views and facts given by his author,
and deliver his SYNOPSIS either 0ga!ly OF FROM
manuscript to the class Three.,tays are given
to the preparation, and the recitation occupies
half a day; the same topic tc,be conaaaued an
til thoroughly mastered by ths class. Most OF
all, the students are urged TO have, opinions OF
their own.
So, also, when the s,46Iect OF Money and
Banking comes up, it Is investigated IN the
same way. The authors,are distributed to IKE
! class, and all views that have. been urged arp
brought under consideration. The professor
, introduces it with q lecture in which he az
| plains the functiou Of money, the difaoent
kinds of money, such as spetalic, mixed and
paper, the nature Of baking, the experience
, of nations with the different curreneiss, &c.,
thus enabling The students to search ehe an
: thors TO the best advantage. After thfee days
preparation, with several other studies on
q hand, and hall days recitation, the class viii
find all the leg that hangs between the subject
:, and the vision Of the people dispelled, and the
: comfort OF o lifetime of intelligence on this
subject, SO dark to nearly all tho people, is se-
s cured.
@ So of every other topic in this science. In
addition, 1t is seen that the students have

GENERAL HlIiEvErs

The Emma mine swindlc has been
finally fully exposed. II has been proved,
beyond doubt, that General Schenck. our
American minister to England, lent the
use Of his name TO the scheme, = scheme
which deceived many innocent people,
and which has caused bite. cxecratlon
OF Gen. schenck and his partners in de-
ception by the English public. This
being the case, Radical papers.
notably the Chicago Tribune, call
upon President Grant to recall
General Schenck from position
which he has disgraced. But the Pre,i-
dent will probably not heed the call OF
his party organs, call they ever 90 loudly.
1t requires something more than sus.
pected OF proven dishonesty TO induce
Grant to remove his Office holders.
General Schcnck is tolerably safe yet.

Sometimes lovers will have their trials
On Sunday May the 23rd, James Jou
ney, lad of about twenty summers, was
to be made happy by leading off as hi
own lovely bride, Miss Sue A., daughter
of Jno S. Love of Loves Branch; a
young maid of eleven or twelve summers,
but being informed that the lovely one
who desired to be his companion through
life, would that day be guarded by armed
men, all James could do was to ride up
and down the branch with a sad counte-
nance looking towards the residence Of
his loved one, and long for friends enough
to capture the prisoner. Several days
have elapsed-Miss Sue is still guarded
and poor James is without wife.
A great deal of smut has been discover
ed in the wheat fields on Loves Branch
The recent rains have brought up good
stand of weeds and grass on the grounds
in cultivation, and several of our farmers
being out of corn, are compelled to feed
their stock on weeds and grass, or wheat,
in order that they may be enabled to draw
the pillow to kill them out.

Kettle Bend, curses the dog-law, and
and everybody who is in favor OF it.
Cotton and corn that has been worked,
