The Supreme Court of Wisconsin has
decided that corporal punishment infict-
ed uron pupil by teacher in the pub
lie schools furnishes sufficient grounds
for an action for assault and battery. This
decision is alread bearing its Legitimate
fruit. In some schools unruly pupils bid
defiance to their teachers, and their
authority is thus successfully de6ed, and
Generalization steps in to take the place
of order. As we'll forbid policeman tc
use force to take culprit to the station
The decision is not founded in wisdom
While not advocating severe, or frequent
corporal punishment, there will be ex'
ceptional cases when it is not only de.
served, but imperative. A teacher worthy
of his position can be, and should b.
trusted to admieister wholesome dis
cipline according to the necessity of eacf
individual case, and should properly b.
held responsible for any abuse of his dis
ciplinary authority.

The card published by the faculty Of
the Medical College of Ohio, in reference
to the J. Scott Harrison case, is, the Gin
cinnati papers think, rather cool. Har-
rison, sfeading citizen of Ohio, SON of
one. of our Presidents, was buriad in
family vault. The next day his mutt
lated body was found in the dissecting
room of the Ohio Medical College. The
faculty apologize, it is true, for this ac-
cident, but declare that the real blame,
after ali, rests upon the public. The
cause of the outrage was the lack of
bodies for dissection. There are nearly
800 students at the college, and scarcely
halfa dozen fresh corpses TO be obtained
week. The deficiency, the faculty In
dignantly declare, must be remedied,
and ct once. Evidently the Harrison
affair has been misunderstood. There
was an outrage committed, but it was on
the students of the medical college, who
were refused their share Of subjects"

Dr. Asa Gray states upon the best evil
dence, it is now believed that the weep
ing willow "is native of China or ia
pan; and that, although it mayhave been
brought across the country to Persia
and Assyra, in comparatively modern
times, it was not there in the days of the
Captivity" This statement overturns the
popular idea that the Israelites hung
their harps on this species of willow.
DIR. Gray adds that 1.-THE trees referred
to in the noble Psalm, and which the
uninsplred translators have called will
lows, were probably poplars (Populus

CURRENT TOPICS.

Socialism has taken deep hold in
Germany, and is threatening the palace of
the Empire, which is really honey-combed
with that element. The late attempt on
the life of the Emperor has developed the
danger. The assassin Nobeling's act
was not mere individual matter. He is
the representative of class, desperate
and dangerous. The burdens imposed
upon the people by the wars of Germany
and by the maintenance of the vast mil.
itary establishment are driving the PEG.
pie to madness, and quickens the lorna
ton of socialist clubs, and provokes des
perate socialist enterprises.

the Imperial throne of Germany, four
attempts have been made upon his life
The first was June, 1s49, at Nieder-Ingel,

to take command of the Prussian forces
The next was in 1851, at Baden-Baden
by crazy student who charged him with
incapacity to effect the union of Germany
The third was only few weeks ago, and
the last was on the I'd inst, from all Of

This is not true. Democrats. as a rule,

but doubt Mr.. Hayes title to the Pres
