Intermittent Fever

Is so common in the country as scarcely
to need comment. The causes which
produce it are such as cold, irregular
living, over exertion, low spirits, night
air, exposure to miasmatic exhalations,
&c. In large cities where edge tools
and agricultural implements are manu-
featured, the grinder protects his lungs
from the injurious effects Of the dust
flying oil the grindstone by wearing a
rcspirator. The coal miner ere he de-
sends the shaft provides himself with a
safety lamp to guard against fre.damp.
Now 1t Is equally necessary for those
who are brought in contact with any Of
the causes leading to intermittent fever,
to provide themselves with that well
known and highly esteemed remedy
againstit, the home stomach bitters.

THE SCHOOLS.

At recent meeting in Boston Of the
school committees and superintendent
of Norfolk county, one speaker said one
result Of the teaching in our common
schools was the inability TO think. Our
schools are all wrong. question OF
a young lady in the high school, ana II
she has no quotation from book on the
end of her tongue, she replies that she
does not know. Another member said
it Is how to teach that primary teach
ers want to understand, rather than what
to teach. That is the main idea. lie
would have pupils taught by topics rather
than from page to page. The quality OF a
teacher Is regulated by the freedom
which Is allowed. to him or her.
Col. Parker, OF Quincy, attacked the A,
BIC method. which Is opposed to the
science OF education. Our method OF
teaching by text books, also, from page
to page, Is false. A science Is taught bv
steps. The first two years Of primary
education are the most important; and II
that Is wrong, there IS no teacher In the
universe who can eradicate the vitiation
the child has received. The schools with
teachers OF ignorance Is common. slow

The MEMBERS or WHICH III SAYS MAY

st. Louis Dispaioh: In his conference
with Mai. Walsh, OF the dominion Po-
lice, concerning an interview with the
commissioners from the United States,
the indignan. Sioux chci stated some
very plain truths about the American
government and It's manner OF dealing
with the Indians, but consented TO the
meeting merely to obligc the police. and
not that lie expected anything would
come OF il. The result is now known.
A meeting took place on the 18th. Ihe
commission met the Indian chief face 10

terms. Sitting Bull was decidedly aycrse
TO any compromise, and the conference
was abruptly broken OIL
a few days prior to the meeting, a
party OF Nez Perces, consisting of about
fifty men, forty women and q large mum.
Der Of children, who escaped from the
Snake Greek battle, arrived IN sad
and destitute condition, many Of them
having been severely wounded in the
arms and legs. Their arrival created
great excitement among the Sioux, who
for time refused 70 see the commissions
ers at all, but finally were persuaded to
do so. The personal appearance of Sit
ting Bull and Spotted Eagle at the con-
terence IS thus described by corrcspon-
dent OF the New York Herald.
