the blind effort to secure an ability te
employ texts, has much for which to
answer in the warped mental habits and
tastes of this generation.
The readiness with which child ma
ture yields to personal influence, and
the eagerness with which he seeks
knowledge when vitalized, while con-
stantly repelled by the unsympathetic
medium Of the silent page, are indices
that point unerringly to the true meth
Cd Of primary teaching, though needed
by so few.

IN the first years of a child's school
work, texts are necessarily useless, ex-
cept as an exercise in reading has ceased
to be task. A reliance upon text
books for instruction engenders, there
fore, an unwise haste in acquiring the
art Of reading. so that the recognition Of
arbitrary signs and groupings OF eharac-
ters is made the burden of primary in
struction. x
Nothing in the laws of mind is more
certain than that knowledge is gained
and strength developed most readily on
lines of previous habits in thought
The violation Of this principle at the
threshold of school life, encouraged by

WORDS OF WIsDON-Never reproach
4 man with the faults Of his relatives.
The soul that suffers is stronger than
the soul that reioices.
People in love generally resolve first
and reason afterwards.
The man who cannot control himself
ought not to have the control of Others.
Dignity is expensive, and without otheI
good qualities, is not particularly protita'
BILE.
An able man shows his spirit by gentle
words aud resolute actions, he is neither
hot nor tmid.
Cities force growth, and make mcr
,alketive and entertaining, but they alsC
make them artificial.
Every time a man smies-but more Sc
when he laughs-it adds something to thi
/ fragment of life.
We love much more warmly by cher
ishing the intention of giving pleasure
than an hour afterwards when we hav'
given it.

A Coop DAUGHTER.-There are other
ministers of love more conspicuous than II
rood daughter, but none in which Il gentler

She is his morning sun and evening star
The grace, yivacity, and tenderness of her

A FINE THoUGHT.-We are told BY those
who know that there are stars so far dis

SPRINGFIELD GREENBACK MEET

SPRINGFIELD GREENBACk MEET
ING.
An enthusiastic Grecnback meeting was
held ar Springfield, Illinois. recently.
The speech OF Gen. l., \. Bates was an
excellent one; and deserved the applause
it received, The following Is an extract
from the Generals remarks as we find
| them in the journal
"a dcluslon generally prevailed that
gold and silver were alone money. one
may have no noncy-aside from Tho
intrinsic value OF the metal. 1t Was the
stamp and seal OF the government, not
the paper or metal OF themselves, Which
made it money. Hence the early dec
and among nations generally.
that foreign coin could not be- made Il
legal tender. The aphoriSm, money OF
the world is II sham, there is 10 such
thing. The history OF several nations
gives many instances where gold III bulk
was refused in exchange for money, Gu't
is not money. What the Government
stamps or s.alS as money Is money. The
representatives OF the people, IN cOn-
gress, are clothed with power 70 deter
mine what's money, and their declaration
is final, hence the necessity Tor sending
proper representatives TO congress. lie
insisted that silver should be rrmOuCtilcd
by the repeal OF ,he infamous act demon
et.zng silver. The resumption bill
should also be repealed; among other re;!-
sons, because there WASH gold enough IN
the country 10 resume with. The green
back was the best money yet devised; ii
was preferable 10 the national bank notes:
and there ought never 10 have been any
difference between the grpenb2cki and
| coin. Such was the idea OF old lhld
Stevens, who, with CoD.e> man Spaui-
ing, OF Buffalo, first introduced green
back legislation. The money power OPP
posed the scheme, and the senate, at
| such demand, inserted provision that
interest on public debt aud custom du-
ties should BE- paid in gold. In ut last,
after every parliamentary struggle, con
| senting to tins compromise as the rN-
igency called Tor funds to support the
| military, Mr.. Stevens with tears yielded,
and took occasion to announce that bv
| the amendment the government 50 DIS
| credited IL own money that difference
between it, lluc and gold was Thereby
created. The speaker further reviewed
| the history OF the grcenback, and argued
that if Thad Stevens bill had prevailed,
| there never would have been any differ.

the government demand notes Issued Ia
