port OF the Tennessee Bureau OF Agricul-
ture is Just out. 1t states that the raVages
from rust threatened to be very disastrous
to wheat, but that in the past few days the
prospect has improved to some extent, ana

been cut of. yet the increased acreage VIII
make the yield probably about three iourths
OF an average crop. The fruit crop ID more
abundant than for several years, and tne
corn, tobacco, and other crops are reported
as doing well. One fifth OF the tobacco
crop has already been set out, . I OBJ! 10

How Much Virginia Spends for Liquor
Mr.. MASSEY made speech last Monday
at Charlottesville, in which he maintained,
says the Jetersonian, that ct the Richmond
Dispatch had done great injustice to the
people Of Virginia in stating that Slo,ooo''
600 are annually wasted by them in the
consumption OF spirituous liquors, and in
arguing from this statement that the people
are able to pay, and that while they thus
throw away their means they are estopped
from pleading their inability to pay" And
he argued to show that not more than
$4,000, 900 worth Of liquor is consumed in
the State.
We shall not comment upon the sad spec
tacle of preacher acting the demagogue
for the sake Of Office, but will content our
selves with quoting what DR.. RUFFNER, Su-
perintendent Of Public Instruction, said on
this point in his first annual report, and re-
peated in his third. Mr.. MASSEY processes
great love for the public schools. We turn
him over to the tender mercies OF the head
OF that excellent and popular department
OF the State Government. We quote from
DR.. RUFFSER's report as follows: l'ss
.sThe annual consumption in Virginia
OF alcoholic liquors alone must be near
S19.000,00O. The sales OF liquors in the
United States during the fiscal year ending
June 80, 1871, it has been calculated by Ed
ward Young, the chief OF the Bureau OF
Statistics, amounted to 5000, 100000. This
total is raade up as follows !: G0,000,000 gal
Ions OF whiskey (at SO a gallon, retasE,
$3.50, 0O0, 600; 100000 gallons OF imported
spirits at $40 gallon, $4,000, 900; 10.70e,-
600 gallons Of imported wine at 50 gallon,
So, 800, 900; $500, 900 barrels OF ale, beer,
and porter at $40 barrel, Sl3O, 200, 900.
Native brandies, wines, and cordials, I'D un-
known quantities, have been consumed, in.
yolying, it is estimated, an expenditure OF
S3i,506,0 900. These figures, although not so
large as some that haze been lbtiSted, yet
give total that should astonish the con-.
sumers Of ardent. spirits. They give an, an
nuai consumption Of about sixteen dollars,
worth OF spirits to every man, woman, and
child In the United States. III the Virginia
people be average consumers the amount
expended In Virginia is $la, 1000 per.

One Cause Of Insanity.

DIR. Walker Kempster, OF Oshkosh,
Wis, superintendent of the insane asy-
lum located there, recently read paper
before the Popular Science Society, OF
Milwaukee, in which he took the ground
that the increase of insanity Is largely
due to the manner in which the minds
of children are injured by the common
school method of teaching. He in
Weighs against the unnaturl attempt to
fill the minds of young persons with the
lessons of the textbooks, and dwells
with emphasis upon the injurious effects
of loading the memory only, without
the control and development of the
nobler faculties. The bad effect of the
present system, he thinks, is especially
noticeable on the health of young girls.
In some schools the more advanced
pupils have to begin their studies at an
early hour, and, with very brief inter
walls, are obliged to spend the day and
evening in mastering their tasks. DIR.
Kempster thinks that this inevitably
produces morbid condition of both
mind and body.
"The first aim of education,' he con-
tinues, SHOULD be to promote physical
health, for without this there can be no
healthy development of the mind. The
next aim should be to exercise and train
the mind i'll such manner as to bring
forth it's best powers. Recreation, hi
larity, and activity are essential to Wig
orous mental condition, and there should
be no ong-continued exercise OF the re-
Elective powers. The great object should
be to prepare the young for the useful
duties of life; and much greater num-
Der of hours should be devoted to phys
zeal and industrial exercises and recrea-
ton than to mental training" The SUI
perintendent of the Boston public
schools takes the same view of the mat
ter, and, in report just issued, Prof.
Elliot makes the suggestion that studies
should be simplified so that costly, and
often difficult, textbooks should be
done away with in great measure. He
believes that the system now in vogue is
too intricate and too high for the masses
of children, because they can never
make any practical use of much they
try to learn. The plan he favors would
be to teach the pupils reading, writing,
geography and arithmetic WELL and, if
any of them evinced a desire or aptitude
for other studies, it would be well then
to let them have such instruction In ma
ture years from experienced professors
in high schools, but from these he would
eliminate every science of which the
pupils at best get but a "smattering."
For instruction in languages, astronomy,
chemistry, mechanics, natural
philosophy, and similar matters, he
would have American youth seek such
colleges or universities as can impart
knowledge thereof, both theo
retical and practical.-ChicdgO TriJ-

Our Foreign Commerce.

From the monthly statement of the

Secretary of the Treasury, the excess of
exports over imports of merchandise
appears to have been as follows: Month

ended Sept. 30, 1878, S2O,527 ,267; nine
months ended Sept. 30, 1877, $54, AGO.
1874; nine months ended Sept. 30, 1873,
$2O9, 13O,4S7. The excess of imports
over exports of gold and silver (coin
and bullion) appears to have been as
follows: Month ended Sept. 30, 1877,
$756,771; month ended Sept. 30, 1878,
s923,7O3. The excess of exports over
imports of gold and silver (coin and

Sept. 80, 1877, amountedto $24, 706.780,

Beware of Cheap Excitants,

And use, if you need a tonic stimulant and al
terative, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. The
liquors of commerce, even when they are not
adulterated, fail to produce more than tempo
rary exhilaration, usually followed by de-
pressing reaction, anything but beneficial to a
weakly constitution. Not only do the potent
botanic ingredients combined with the alco-
holic of Hostetters Stomach Bitters minister to
the health and vigor of those who use it, but
the bass-pure old rye, the finest and most
salubrious liquor distilled-is no mean promo

to preserve their vegetable constituents from

their remedial value. Few medicinal prepare

A Tennessee Tragedy.

A terrible tragedy was enacted IN
front of the residence of John ~.
Gleaves, at Mount Joliet, Wilson coun-
ty, last night, resulting in the death of
Constable Warpool and John Cloyd, the
former white, the latter colored. Dur
ing a difficulty in the morning about
packing cotton, Cloyd shot and wounded
Winfield McWhorter In the evening
McWhorter's friends procured warrant
for the arrest of Cloyd, and Constable
Frank Warpool was deputized by a
magistrate to arrest him. Warpool
summoned John Osborn, DR.. Raymer
and James McWhorter to help arrest
him. They started in pursuit of Cloyd,
and, arriving at the house of John Will
