TIE ST. LOUIS SCHOOL QUESTION.

The Times Of this city short time ego pub
lished to the world that, ewing to hard times,
the pastors Of tho different churches had con-
cluded to close their schools and hand their
children over to the city TO be educated. The
statement was 80 extrsvagant We paid NO at

But we find that the statement has been copied
into other psPsfs o. the ,ss sss Msa, sno

Our pastors have not the remotest idea of
closing their schools. It is true, the burden Of
maintaining them has been greatly argumen-
ted during the past few years, but they are
patient and content TO wait for the good time
coming. The fact is, our Catholic schools

well add here the two following items taken
from the same Issue of the WafchmS1 (last
week's):
The male department Of st. PAtrick's schools,
taught by the Christian Brothers, will be CON-
ducted next year by the Brothers as free
school, NO charge being made for pupils except
for books. To properly salary the eeaoherg,
festivals and other means oEraising funds Will
be resorted to. In the latter part Of April, Ss
wc have already announced, the frat OF these
festivals will be given, and 1t 10 to be hoped
that its success will be all that could be de-

The Cathedral schools opened last Mondsy,
with an attendance of seventy pupils. Three
Sisters from the Convent ofMercy, Twenty
third and Morgan, are in charge. They will
depend upon the voluntary contributions OF
the parishioners for their support, and, in ed-
dition to their school duties, will visit the 6Ok

works of Mercy which full within the scope Of
their order. There seems to be . general tom

The Need Of the Age.

No system of education is compile until
it concerns Itself for the entire body, and
all the parts of human life-a character
high, erect, broad-shouldered, symmetrical,
swift; not the mind as I said. but the man.
Our familiar phrase, ""whole-souled," ex-
presses the aim of learning as well as any.
You want to rear men fit for all spots and
cases, prompt and busy in affairs, gentle
among little children, seif-reliant in danger,
genial in company, sharp in iury-box,
tenacious at town-meeting, unseducible in
crowd, tender at a sick-bed. not likely TO
jump into the first boat at shipwreck, afec-
tiorate and respectful at home, obliging in
travelling party, shrewd and just in the
market, reverent and pnnctual at church.
not going about, as Robert Hall said, with
an air of perpetual apology for the unpar-
donable presumption Of being in the world"
nor yet forever suppiicating the worlds spe-
cial consideration; brave in action, patient
in suffering, believing and cheering every
where, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord.
This is the manhood that our age and
country are asking Of its educators-well
built and vital, manifold and harmonious,
full Of wisdom. FIJI Of energy, fri of faith.

Agricultural Notes.


There are now over one million sheep in
Colorado.
Scabs, ticks, grub the the head, catarrh
sheep sooner than those kept in good or
der.
Sheep Husbandry in the South, says that
in 1866 San Antonio received but 100000
pounds of wool, which was sent through
Galveston In 1877 she received ?, 10000
pounds.
Sheep fed upon dry upland pasture are
beyond all question, the best for the table,
though for the farmers profit, the luxuriant
grass of the fields pushes them more rail-
idly.
Keep no more stock than you can keep
well, cultivate no more land than you can
keep in prime order, undertake no more
work Than you can accomplish, and you
will succeed better than most farmers do,
who are got governed by these rules.
Mutionis the favorite meat of the Eng
lish people Of all classes, TO a much greater
extent than in this country, yet with US the
consumption is gradually increasing, and
perhaps fully as fast as the increase and i'm
provement of the fine breeds of sheep.
As hogs are allowed to run loose out west,
The farmers have almost universally adopt
ed the plan of putting rings in the noses of
their swine These preventthem from root
ing, and experience has shown that hogs
fatten much more rapidly with than without
them.
The down from the s'cat tail'' flag, which
grows in rarshy localities, is found 10 be
healing to wounds, particularly burns and
scalds. The vesicles are punctured and a
layer of the down applied and lett until it
drops oil. The plant is common and the
remedy can be easily tested.
Statistics now published give the estima-
ted number Of sheep in Europe in 1876,
I94,o26, 276 head. OF these 46,4sz, coo
were in Russia, 29.4e5,ooo in England,
25,o35, ia in France, 2, 900 in Spain,

There is no power of love SO
hard to get and keep as kind
voice. A kind hand is deaf and
dumb. 1t may be rough in flesh
and blood, yet do the work of a
soft heart, and do it with soft
touch. But there is no one
thing that love SO much needs
as a sweet voice to tell what if
means and feels; and it is hard
to get and keep it in the right
tone. One must start in youth,
and be on the watch night and
day, at work and play, to get
and keep voice that speaks at
all times the thoughts of a kind
heart. But this is the time when
a sharp voice is most apt to be
got. You often hear boys and
girls say words at play with
quick, sharp tone, as if it were
the snap of whip. When one
of them gets vexed you will
hear a voice that sounds as if it
were made up of a snarl,
whine, ssand assbark. Such
voice often speaks worse than
the heart feels. 1t shows more
ill-will in the tone than in the
words. 1t is often in nlirth that
one gets voice or a tone that
is sharp, and sticks to him
through life, and stirs up ill-will
and grief, and falls like a drop
of gall on the sweet joys at
home. Such as these get a
sharp home-voice for use, and
keep their best voice for those
they meet elsewhere, just as
they would save their best cakes
and pies for asests and all their
sour food orheir own board.
would say to all boys and girls:
use your own guest-voice at
home Watch it day by day, as
pearl of great price, for it will
be worth more to you in days
to come than the best pearl hid
in the sea. A kind voice is a
joy like lark's song to hearth
and home. It is to the heart
what light is to the eye. 1t is
light that sings aswell as shines.
Tram it to sweet tones now, and
it will keep in tune through life.

what is being done in that coun-
ty in the way OF the production
of sugar and syrup. Therei no
doubt that sugar culture is the
most profitable that can be ena
gagged in where it can be sue

The sugar and syrup crops
in Victoria county this fall will
be considerable in quantity as
well as splendid in its quality.
From about eight acres of the
Louisiana ribbon cane planted
BY the Messrs. Carsner, more
than sixty barrels, or about
twenty-seven hundred gallons
of excellent syrup will be made,
besides a number OF barrels OF
sugar. Mr.. Louis Jecker has
