PESTALOZZI: HIS LIFE. WORK AND INFLU-
ENCE. BY Hermann krusi. \. NJ. $40 Cloth.
Beveled edges. Illustrated 81 25. Cincinnati !.
wilson, Lilnk.e u Co.
The author of this book is at present
Instructor in Philosophy of Education at
the OSwego Normal and Training School,
and is son of Pestolozzi's first associate.
The subject of this work, Henry Pest
olozzi, was born at Zurich, Switzerland in
the year l'46. He was left an orphan at
the age of 6 years, by his fathers death.
His mother withdrew herself from all
society and devoted herself to the educa-
ton of her children. Henry decided to be
minister but after trying that he found
he was not calculated for that profession.
tie happened to see and read work on
the subject of Education and this lead his
thoughts and ideas in that direction He
was of very benevolent and charitable
disposition, and he wished to do people
good. Like all persons of this character
he was poor manager-didn't seem 70
have any financial ability, and was as a
consequence usually in some trouble or
other. But during all this time he was
laboring to mitigate the sufferings of the
poor. Hence, we find him in 17,5 at
the head of an Industrial School for The
Poor, in which it was his idea to give
not only theoretical but practical edu.
cation to those who were prevented by
poverty from attending the schools and
universities then in existence. This
school lasted . years when it had to be
given up for want of funds. But
though cast down he was not de.
stroyed. His unfailing faith and good
nature served to buoy him up and give
him courage. He kept studying and
writing upon his favoritc theme and met
with the varied success usual to all an
thors. Some of his books had large sales
While others were not as successful. He
wrote one work Leonard and Gertrude y
which was of such high order of merit
that the Government Of Berne gave him
Cold Medal, but such was his financial
condition that he was obliged to sell the
medal to obtain the necessaries of life
Pestalozzi, was teacher in the true |
sense of the word lie was the originator
OF Object Teaching in its best meaning
While he did not disparage book educa- |
lion and scholastic learning he seemed to
have holy Indignation for system of
education which gave person that only,
his great idea being to combine book
and practical learning to produce per
feet culture.
This is a work of great value to all and
to teachers. 1t contains MANY
imely hints on the subject of imparting
Instruction, and we would advise every
eacher in lama County to procure
opy and study 1t and practice its hints
nd theories. 1t is handsome book for
he library and is well worth the price.

The NET PoIF.L LAW.

Since the press all over the country
have been going foS' the Senate Com

the rates on third-class matter, some OF
the committee have tired TO explain the
matter by saying that The amendment was
inserted to relieve The mail carriers in the

The Democratic party has full control

times continue rs hard as ever. Give Us
the State" shouted the demag0gueS at
the last election, land you will have
plenty of work" With idle men seeking
employment these pledges had great
weight.
Work was what they wanted, and if
the Democratic party could give it to
them they were ready to support it. To-
day, these dupcs stand in ilcncss, CON
WINGED that even Democratic supremacy
cannot remove hard times, or the causes
which produce them.
1t is popular idea that the party in
power is responsible for hard times, when,
in fact it has no more influence over bust
ness arrangements than it has over the
movement of the tides If we seek to
correct these arrangements we must look

a WORLDS PEACE CoNGREss. In
carefully prepared statistical paper On the
Errors Of Ndtyn CtrN;gotioR, the Re
puJiic Nogaziae for April, published 1T
Washington, shows that the Great. Pow
crS are carrying larger armies to-day than
at any former period in the worlds his
tory. 1t is also shown that rs a direct
result of war and standing armies nation
al Indebtedness has increased far beyond
that Of any former period. Ten govern
ments, namely: France, Great Britain,
United States, Italy, Spain, Austria, Rus
STA, Germany, Turkey, and India, owe
twenty thousand million dollars, an
amount which, to be transported in gold
from New York to London, would require
a vessel to make over thirty voyages
across the Atlantic, carrying one thousand
tons of gold at each trip. And this cnor-
NOUS debt-burden has been increased ten
per cent. in the last two years.
With these national precedcnts before
them, OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES, states,
cities, counties, and towns--have ADOPT
ed the pcrnicious practice Of borrowing
money, especially in the United States,
and often for purposes Of questionable I
propriety, until government and municip- |
al taA-burdens have become matters cf !
the gravest import.
In view OF these facts, and in order to
reach and strike at the fountain head, the .
Rspu5ttc urges II general movement .
among the nations for the suppression of .
the wal spirit and the inauguration of an
International Peace Policy, and suggests
the assembling of Worlds Peace Con-
gress in Washington in June, 1876. There
appears to be no insuperable barrier to
such movement, and if once Inaugural
ted and carried out in good faith, the re-
suit could not fail bf permanent benefit
TO the entire world, In the advancement
toward higher andhappier civilization.
