mOuthed and foul handed.R Then,
stretching himself up to his full stature
and stepping backward from his desk, he
said, with a stamp that shook the dust
out Of the carpet, This ia blasphemy
against the Holy Ghost Of Intelligence
Enthusiasm, he further explained, was
an essential clement in this controversy.
We have had religious enthusiasm OF pa
triotisp, and why not enthusiasm OF edu-
cation. One might as we'll try to march
a triumphal procession through a rat
hole as to attempt to squeeze into any one
Institution all the elements Of an educa-
ton. The forge that made the scythe was
not the grindstOne that put the edge on it,
There is physical education and there ia
intellectual education, and there is spirit
ual education; but you cannot conine
them all to one institution. Neverthc-
less, children ought to be taught some
thing Of themselves as we'll as Of geogra-
ghy and grammar. "While We teach
them about the hills and valleys and gulf
streams Of geography, We should also
teach them about the hills and valleys
and gulf streams here" he said, slapping
his hand on his breast,
The press Of the laid, he said, was COM
ing over to the position OF excluding the
Bible from the common schools. They
would help swell this enthusiasm that was
as essential to the success Of the measure
as fermentation was to make wine. Edu-
cation was essential to the best welfare Of
the State. A nation uneducated was like
an iron mountain OF unwrough t ore.
Again, speaking OF the necessity OF
abolishing all distinction US to class or
caste, Mr., BeeCher said that, like differ
ent kernels Of corn, they all must be
ground into one meal, then mixed into
one dough. After that one might make
buiscuit OF some, bread Of others, and
cake OF others, Us necessity demanded,
but as long as they were in the common
schools they must all be one IlOur-one
dough. [Laughter,l
Speaking OF the necessity Of having the
school houses comfortable, hesaid that it
Is considered q crime to poison n single
child, but irritate them in school room
and poison them by the hundred, and the
law is silent, The school houses are
mere crucibles to test the endurance Of
the children. 1t Is a shame to make jails
and call them schools, to make holes and
call them'halls, [Applause.l
Mr.. BeeCher believed in compulsory
education. TWAS the birthright Of every
child, and no parent had u right to de-
priye them Of Il, And II any mercenary
father or mercenary mother attempted
to, the State should interfere. Applause,
Education was necessary to virtue and
good citizenship, and the State should hold
the shieldO It's protection over II, fash.
ing light as from the sun into every dark
place Of Ignorance, until every child Of
poverty and degradation should be rich
In all the elements Of a true education,
rich in himself, and rich toward God and
and his fellOw.inen.

SroCKs.-There was n run on the Up.
Town Savings Bank to-day, and rumor
has II that tho concern has taken Ndvan-
tagc OF the 90 days clause. The great
event Of the day In Wall street was the
announcement from Washington that the
Supreme Court OF the United States had
decided in favor Of the Union Pacific
railroad on the appeal from the Court Of
Claims. Later ndvices stated that the
decision was unanimous. The effect Of
this decision upon the securities Of the
company was very marked. The highest
prices Of the day were made at the close,
when there was considerable animation
and excitement in the dealings. The
stock rose per cent, from 74t to cot.
The bonds were also up. Pacific Mail
sympathiled with Union Pacific in cOnse.

traordinary state Of feeling which it re-
yeals in society. A staff captain, one
Karpoff, was indicted for tho willful
murder Of rural magistrate named
Kozinenko. He had gono to the village
where tho Judge was stationed, placed
himself on tfioroad wherethe judgc'scar-
riago must pass, and deliberately shot
him without warning, Mt tho risk of kill
ing tho secretary by his side instead.
Tic wounded man got out, Karpoif
fired again, rolled with his victim into II
