The progress OF education in Japan within
The past few years has been no less crafty
ing than the new departure of that empire IN
many other ways calculated to lay the
foundation for broader and higher civilizs-
fion. 1t was fortunate for the empire that

The last statistics relative to education

President and Acting Minister of Educa-
tiOn OF Japan, to the United States
Commissioner of Education, are remark

Complete returns for 1874 show the whole
number OF colleges and schools to have been

while the whole number of pupils in attend

4G2,lls over the previous year. OF foreign
teachers in Japan there were - English, Is
American, 10 German, 81 French, and 2
Dutch, while Russia, Switzerland, and
China were represented by each. The most
gratifying feature of the progress OF eiuca-
lion, however, is the improvement in the
system of instruction, which was formerly
restricted 10 the narrOwest limits, and in the
main'embraced only the study of the heather
literature of China. Having finally come to

The following resolutions were unanf-
mously adopted At q regular meeting of
Emporia Grange, No. 61S, P. of e., April
9Th, 1876.
WHEREAS, It is q well known fact, that
we are almost entirely without munufac-
turtles In our midst. and that we all feel
the need ofthem to be self-sustainin9 and
independent people, and that we are
prejudiced against home made articles.
that are as good and perhaps better than
those OF foreign manufacture, for the same
money.
Resolved, That this Grange feels deep
interest in the establishing OF a wooden fac
tory, at the foot OF Commercial street,
Emporia, Kansas, and that we will use ali
means within our power, TO sustain the
mill, ii one il put In operation.
ReSOlUed, That we will encourage sheep
husbandry, by each and all OF US as soon
as possible, procuring flock OF sheen.
ReSotved, Further, that we will use our
influence to disabuse the minds of the
minus Of the people, in sending their
msney out Of the country, to pay for goods
that can be produced at home as cheapIy.
ResoI1ed, That we will patronize a6y
and all manufactures, that may come
among US for the purpose Of manufactur.
ing goods or implements, that we are buy
ing Of eastern manufactures, provided
they are as good for the same money.

Company.
Life insurance Is q matter we seldom re-
Ter to, though we do not fail to appreciate
It's importance. 1t is . duty to others,
which too many Of US neglect. The chief
value Of life insurance consists Of its re.
liability. The object OF it is to make a
certain provision for those who are de-
pendent upon US. and this certainly can
not be too carefully looked after. There
are some companies pre-eminently safe,
and none are safer and more reliable in
any respect than the celebrated New York
Mutual Life. Il is conducted upon the
