QUEEN VICTORIA AND THE CEN.
TENNlAl..

The TACT Thai no European potsntate
was present to grace the opening ser.
vices Of our CsntsnniL Exhibition. 10
not such . great blow to our national
pride. rs at nrss blush II might appear.
Although the greater part Of Europe is
nominally at psscc, the fires Of war are
s~moulderiug and liable TO break out at
any moment. The Eastern, or Turkish.
Question. il again looming up in tremsn.
dous proportions, and any day may see
the continent embroiled in . bitter
struggle In which Russia and the other
powers will b forced 10 engage to pro-
tect their interests on the Mediterranean.
This being the case. every nation which
has Q direct interest in this old.time
question. 10 jealously watching its
neishb0r. and steadily preparing itself
for the conflict which is inevitable in
the not very distant future. Emperors
and Kings have but little time just now
to devote to pleasure excursions. ssps-
cially when they involve trip across
the broad Atlantic; and We cannot rsa-
sonsbly expect . visit from any Of the
mouarchs Who are accustomed 10 per.
sonally supsrintsnd the working Of thsir
government.
II is possible, however. that Queen
Victoria might be induced to attend the
Exhibition. Since the death Of the
Prince Consort that lady has lived . re-
tired life. meditating. u 10 said. upon
the virtues Of her departed husband. and
leaving the cares Of Government almost
entirely in the hands Of her Ministry.
The notion advanced that abe 10 out Of
her head 10 absurd. A lunatic Queen
would have been discovered before this
time by the entire world; and England
would never permit herself to BE- ruled
over by an insane woman. Even u the
people were contsnted. the Prince Of
Wales would not Be; for he il essentially
selfish In all his actions. and would
wrsst the crown from his mothers head.
and the scepter from her hand. without
q moments hesitation. could he do IL

Victoria 10 simply heart. broken. Her
absence from Europe at this time would
10 no harm to her country. and the
pleasures Of tho voyage. and the excite
ment Of the scenes through which abe
would pass. might prove Of incalculabls
benefit to her health. which has un.
doubtsdly tesn seriously impaired by
her long sslf-enforesd retirement from
the world.
The New York Sun makes q suggss-
ton to the Centennial Commissioners
which. II carried promptly into sIscu-
lion. might possibly induce Her Majesty
to pay US a visit. The proposition is to
erect q memorial. in the Centennial
buildings or grounds, to the late Prince
Consort. II this wersdono, tits believed.
by prominent Englishmen, that the
Queen would come forth from her ssclu.

GENERAL NOTES.

The late cold snap. in the opinion Of
an old citizen with whom W converssd
yesterday. says the Genoa Nsus Of Sat.
urday. has proven the salvation Of the
ranches on the valley bottom. Within .
week the river has fallen two feet. But
for the intervention Of the late cold
weather. in the opinion Of many. the
valley would have been swept clean, and
the destruction OF property would have
amounted to . total humiliation Of sv.
cry farming value within the scope Of
the swollen food.
The Sacramento Record. Union states
that . few nights since the conductor Of
q freight train discovered on reaching
Truskse that there were two chickens
q hen and q rooster-roosting upon n
% the trucks Of q boz car. and resting ar
quietly As though they were thoroughly
accustomed to railroad travel. II was
thought they had boarded the train at
Auburn. They were dscspi.atsd.
The Humboldt Register rays: From
parties who arrived from Cornucopia on
Saturday last. We learn that the road
leading from here to that place 10 in
spendid condition. and the bridge across
the owyhee is all right. It il the intsn-
ton Of the merchants Of Cornueopia to
ship most OF their freight from this
place during the coming season.
Tux Sirtr State says: "a week ago
the prospects OF . good fruit crop in
Humboldt county were never better; to-
day the prospects we're never worse. The
cold weather Of last week nipped cher.
riss, peaches. aprieots and apples; in
fact. each and every kind Of fruit gen.

FAIL PL0WING.

In some cases fall blowing is advisable.
If You have stiff, clay soil, that has had
crop upon it this season, and you want
to seed it down to grass next spring, or
otherwise cultivate it, if plowed this fall
in ridges, by turning two back burrows
together, throwing them up as high as
ten or twelve inches deep will effect, the
frosts of winter will pulverize the soil,
and mush improve it. We do not re-
commend blowing sward land IN this
manner, as it makes it too grassy to cult
vate easily the next season. Nor would
it be advisable to plow lands in sod this
fall that you design to cultivate next sea
son to corn or potatoes; it is better to
pillow such lands next spring, and plant
Immediately after blowing. 1t will do
very well to pillow either sward or other
lands in October or November, if in good
condition, and SOW them to oats the next
spring very early; and you will have more
time in the spring to devote to other
work. In such cases as soon as the land
is dry, harrow it well, then sow your eats
and grass seeds, then harrow again, and
finish with the roller. A farmer who
does not own good, heavy, iron ,ollel
should buy one before he seeds down any
land to grass-Fdrnoer'S Friend.

EDUCATIONAL DEPARTMENT.
Edited by J. W. JOHNSON, Co. Supt
School Visitation.

There is no one subject that is so fire.
quently forgotten as this. 1t is supposed
that parents can find out enough concern
Ing the work done in the school by inquir-
ing of their children; aud generally,
when John and Katie are satisfied, all is
well with the indulgent parent. Children's
judgment are not taken in the most com
mon affairs Of life; no one thinks that
they are possessed of the requisite amount
of training to deal with material things;
but all, at least, act as if on the point of
the welfare of the school their youthful
minds are capable to decide. Thus the
schools of this city go on from day to
day. The citizens pay the money to sup
port them. They send their children
morning after morning, while they them
selves have no idea of what they are
doing or how they are advancing in their
studies. 1t is wonder the schools are
even as good as they are; it is wonder
that The teacher does the work as well as
he does, since there is none to watch him.
1t is surprising that the create st interest
Of the people would be 50 neglected, that
the parent does not see that the child is
being taught those things, and treated in
such manner as to develop the strongest
and purest manhood or womanhood
There is no doubt but if our teachers
expected some parent to come in and in
vestigate their work every day, that they
would be melted to better work, and we
know that the pupils would be more dill
gent and orderly.
Teachers need sympathy and assists
They would like to have this great chasm
oil indifference brld scd; they would be
glad to welcome the parents of their
pupils in the school room, and to cosfcr
with them about their childrens success.
This is surely the crying need of the
public schools of to-day There is too
much money grasping, 100 much activity
in business to allow the people to exam
inc into the prospects of the coming gen.
Grafton. There is no lack in the furnish
ing of the necessary clothing or comforts
Of life, but there is a great lack in the
attention paid to the storing of the
youthful minds with useful knowledge

a comparison appears in this issue be-
tween the schools OF Oskaloosa and Rock
Island. We are glad to have this COM
parison, and are thankful to Bro. Kemble
for sending it, as it enables our people to
see how the work is done elsewhere. In
explanation of our system of marking
hardness we desire to say that in Oskaloosa
pupils are marked tardy if they are not
in their seats when the silence bell taps
at o'clock. As fact, the majority of
tardinesses are for very few minutes,
and were we to call the roll after the pre-
liminaIies, we could reduce our number
more than half. Since We are SO particu-
lar on this point, we report an unusual
number of tardinesses, considering our
number enrolled. There is another matter
that aids in making hardness, the location
of our school houses, and many pupils
have so far to go that in bad weather it
is almost impossible to be punctual. This
is not written for an apology, but to draw
attention to the fact that the regulations
governing hardness must be the same or
else comparison amounts to nothing.
From personal knowledge We know that
great differences exist in different cities
and in some cities the penalty for tardi-
ness is so severe that the pupil prefers to
be absent; hence, we find scarcely any tardi-
ness, but greater number of absences
accruing each month. We weuld be
pleased to hear from Bro. kemble on
the manner of governing this matter in
Rock Island, telling how it happens that
1000 pupils only made thirty tardinesses
in schoel-month and we hope he will
give us the number of absences made by
mem bers of the school in the same time.
