The Emotions In Education.

One large department OF psychology
is made up of the classification, detini-
ton, and analysis of the emotions. The
applications of complete theory Of
emotion are numerous, and the sys-
tematic expansion must be such as to
cope with all these applications We
here narrow the subject to what is in
dispensable for the play Of motives In
education.
First of all, it is necessary to take note
of the large region Of sociability, COM
prising the social emotions and affec-
tions. Next is the department of anti
social feeling-anger, malevolence, and
lust of domination. Taking both the
sources and the qualifications of these
two leading groups, we cover perhaps
three-fourths of all the sensibility that
rises above the senses proper. They do
not indeed exhaust the fountains OF
emotions, but they leave no other that
can rank as of first-class importance, ex-
cept through derivation from them and
the senses together. lsh m
The region of fine art comprises q
large compass OF. pleasurable feeling,
with corresponding susceptibilities to
pain; some of this is sensation proper,
being the pleasures of the two higher
senses; some is due to associations with
the interests of all the senses (beauty OF

pears to be derived from the two great
sources above described.
The intellect generally is source OF
various qualifications and also of suffer-
ings that are necessarily mixed up with
our intellectual education. Both the
delights of attained knowledge and
the pains of intellectual labor have to
be carefully counted with by every in.
structor.
The pleasures of action or activity are

tional service, and therefore demand spe.

With oaths and yells the men hurried
down the road.
We ran out. Yakob lay on the floor
white and CHASTITY. My mother raised
his head.
"He is dying" she said.
"Why did he throw his life away for
the old shanty ?" cried Sue, impatiently.
Yakob shook his head. "Not de
house."
The same thoughtcame to us both. We
pushed the door open. On the bed lay
pallid skeleton of man--our brave,
handsome Charley
For more than month Yakob had
hidden him there, afraid to trust even
his mother with the secret.
If the faithful German had died fol

THE MODERN COUR.E OF TRU

They met amid the bathrooms glare,
And only this had either noted.
That he was dark aud she WAS fair.
When breathless In the waltz they noated.
But in thai instant Cupid hung

She thought that Hybia tipped his tongue
Although he only praise the weather.
To him her spirit seemed divine,
Though still she talked but commonplace;
Her accents breathed the tunefnl Nine,
Her face and figure all the Gracss.
His coat her critic eye approved;
He owned perfection In her bodice;
And il to her god he moved,
To him no less she SWAN goddess.

And when they sat in tender speech,

Value of Government signal Service.
The system of danger signals, adopted
by the United States Government, has
proved of great benefit to shipping. All
along the coasts are stations, at which
plainly visible signals are displayed, to
warn ship Captains of approaching
storms The reports OF observers at the
stations are required to give all instances
in which vessels have remained in port
on account of official warnings given. In
these cases danger is avoided, and sta
tistics show that disasters to shipping
have been considerably fewer since the
introduction of the cautionary signals.
The agricultural interests of the coun-
try also have been greatly benefited by
the daily bulletins sent to every farming
district in the land by the Weather De-
partment. These bulletins are made
from telegraphic reports received at APP
pointed centers of distribution, where
they are at once printed, placed in en-
velopes, and addressed to designated
postoffices in the district to be supplied.
Each Postmaster receiving bulletin
has the order Of the Postmaster General
to display it instantly in frame fur
nished for the purpose. on. ae ,.s,a
The bulletins reach the different
offices, and are displayed in the frames,
on an average, at IL o'clock in the morn
ing, making about ten hours from the
time the report first left the chief signal
officers until it appeared placarded at
every center of the farming populations,
and became accessible TO all classes even
in the most distant parts of the country.
The information given on these bulle-
tins has been founo especially valuable
to those farmers who take an interest in
the study OF meteorology, or the science
of weather, and the facts announced are
so plain that any intelligent person may
profit by them. For instance, each
bulletin now announces, for its particu-
lar district, what winds in each month
| nave Deeu IOuuQ HObI likely anu Wudt
least likely to be followed by rain. At
tention given to this one simple piece of
information will result in increasing the
gains and reducing the losses of harvest
ing.
Warnings of expected rises or falls in
the great rivers are made with equal
regularity, telegraphed, bulletined in
frames, and also published by the news
papers, at the different river cities.
These daily reports give the depths OF
water at different points in the rivers
courses, and thus make it easy for river
shipping to be moored safely in antici-
patton of low water, when Ignorance
might lead to the grounding of the boats
ON sand-bars or mud-banks. The no.
tees of the probable heights which
freshets may reach are followed by
preparations upon the levees" and
river banks, to guard against overhows.

Beside lonely mountain path
Within n messy wood
That crowned the Wild, wind-beaten ohns'
lurking robber stood.
His foreign garb, his gloomy eye,
His cheek OF swarthy stain,
bespoke him one who might have been
A pirate on the main.
Or bandit from the far-oh hills
OF Cuba, or Of Spain.

A shadowing bough he raised
Glared forth, az crouching tiger Siares'

Long, long he watched, and listened long )
There came no traveller by; fH
The rlifiaD growled harsher curse,
And gloomier grew his eye;
While DER the sultry heaven began
A leadep haze 10 spread, ItI
And, past his noon, the summer sun
A DINNER beam 10 shed;
And ON that mountain summit fell
silence deep and dread.
Then ceased the bristling pine to sigh,
Still hung the birchen spray,
The air that wrapped those massey chns
Was motionless as they.
Mute was the cricket in his cleft,
But mountain torrents round
Sent hollow muFmurs from their glens
Like voices underground
change caune DER the robbers cheek,
He shudcered at the sound.
Twas vain to ask what fearful thought
Convulsed his brow with pain.
:" The dead talk not" he said, at length,
And turned TO watch again.
Skyward ne looked. A lurid cloud
Hung low and blackening there,
And through its skirts the sunshine came
A strange, malignant glare;
His ample chest drew in with toll l
The hot and sitting air.
His ear haa caught distant sound,
But not the tramp Of steed;
A roar as Of mountain stream
Swol'n into sudden speed,
The gathered vapors in the west
Before the rushing blast,
Like living monsters Of the air,
Black serpent-ike and vast,
Writhe, roll, and, sweeping DER the sun,
A frightful shadow cast.
Hark to that nearer. mightier crash
AS If giant crowd,
Trampling the oaks with iron foot,
Had issued from the cloud!
While fragments OF discovered rock
Game laundering from on high,
And eastward from their eyrie cliffs
The shrieking eagles iy,
And, To- the expected traveller comes
Squirting his charger by.
To that wild warning of the air
The assassin lends no heed.
He lifts his pistol to his eye,
He notes the horseman's speed.
Firm is his hand aud sure his aim,
But, ere the fash is given,
Its eddies filed with woods uptorn
And spray from torrents driven,
The whirlwind sweeps the crashing wood,
The giant frs are riven.
Riven and rent from splintering cliffs,
That rise like down in air,
Al once the forests rocky floor
Lies to the tempest bare;
Rider and steed and robber whirled
Der precipices vast,
'Mong trunks aud boughs and shattered crae
MIangled and crushed, are cast;
The catamount and eagle made
That morn grim repast!

tween US, that, at some convenient time, We
would have a sum of coupons to divide,
amounting to $4,000 each, more or less, ac-
cording to circumstances, and that Neagle
should have share of them, and Kimpton
would see that Chamberlain got his share,
while was to distribute the share to Scott
and Neagle. We did not inquire how Kimp-
ton became possessed of them, but we could
not doubt that he cut them off of bonds pass
ing through his hands, and the financial
board did not doubt it. When the final de-
tails of the division were discussed, Kimpton
avoided a division of onl $4,000, so, as
he said, the amount might not be large
enough to attract attention, but sent me the
coupons and left it to my discretion as to the
precise amount that should be divided, and,
as I believe, to his own discretion as to the
amount he would retain for himself and
Chamberlain.

the recovery of $450,000 in coupons, the
amount it was charged that had funded,
Governor Scott sent me $4,000 cash to assist
me in defending the suit. The amount was
obtained from him by Neagle, whom 1 en-

AGE FOR LEGAL MARRIAeEs.-There is
considerable variation, in the different Euro
pean States, of the age at which legal mar
rriage can be contracted. In Austria, the age
of discretion for both sexes is fourteen. In
Hungary, each religious sect makes it's own
regulations, marriages being regarded as an
entirely ecclesiastical affair. Russians can
contract marriages at the age of eighteen in
the case of males, and sixteen in that OF ie-
males. The Italian law fixes the age at
eighteen and fifteen years respectively. In
Turkey there is no general law. The French
and Belgian codes allow marriages Of young
men at eighteen and girls at fifteen years, but
powers of dispensation in special cases are re-
served. In Greece, Spain and Portugal, par
ties of fourteen and twelve can contract a
binding marriage, but in the latter country
the consent of the parents is necessary if the
parties are under twenty-one. According to
the amended paragraph Of the new German
civil marriage bill, the state of wedlock can
not be entered upon under twenty and six
teen respectively, though the existing laws OF
Prussia and Saxony permitted marriages at
earlier periods There is much dissimilarity
in the Swiss laws, every canton having To-
cal regulation of its own. In some of them
the consent of the parent is necessary up to
the age of twenty-five. The influence Of cli-
mate upon the temperament and constitution
is observable in the earlier age at which mar
riage is allowed in the Southern nations,
where maturity is reached at much earlier
period, than among the Northern people.

THE PIRATE.FISHERMAN.

The fsh-market of Havana is said to be
the finest structure of its kind in the world.
1t also interests the traveller by its romantic
association with the story of Marti, a reform
ed pirate and smuggler, who built it and the
"Tacon Theatre"
During the administration of Tacon, from
1884 to 1888, smuggling and piracy had
grown so bold in and about Cuba as to defy
the Spanish navy sent to suppress the out
laws Their leader was man named Marti,
and for his person, dead or alive, the Cover
nor.General offered large reward.
One dark night man was watching the
sentineIs pacing in front of the Governors
palace, Havana. As they turned their backs
and separated for moment, the man sprang,
unobserved, through the entrance. He passed
up the broad stairs, saluted in an imperious
style the guard there stationed, and passed
into the Governor. Generals room. The Gov
ernor, engaged in writing, looked up as the
man coolly cast aside bis cloak, exclaiming-
"Who enters unannounced~
"One who has information of the pirates
"What of them ?" said Tacon, earnestly.
zone moment-I must not sacrifice N.Y.
SELF"
"You have naught to fear. Even if you
be one of them, you will be pardoned.
"Will you pardon and reward me if I re-
veal the lurking-plac of the pirates, and
put Marti into your hands :"
"Ipledge you my word Of honor" said Ia
con.
"Your Excellency, am Marti."
The cool scoundrel then entered into an
arrangement with the Governor for the betray-
al of all the smugglers and pirates. Under
his guidance, the Spanish vessels sailed to the
outlaws hiding places, and captured those
who were not slain.
When Marti returned to to'Havana, be was
offered the pardon, which he accepted
and money, which he declined. In lieu
of the reward, he asked the monopoly Of
selling fish in Havana. 1t was granted, and
he erected magnificent stone market. When
be became master of enormous wealth, lie
built theatre and named if after the Cover
nor. General who had pardoned the scoundrel.
