The City Of New York forbids her
common-school teachers to infict cor
poreal punishment, and cxpels the i'll
corrigibles from the schools. As re-
suit, the teachers are worn to distrac-
ton, in their efforts to preserve order;
the streets are full of vagrants; and
Cardinal McClosky, Bishop Potter, and
Parson Beecher thunder simultaneously
against the want of moral training in
the school-room.- A. ID. MAYO, in Na-
tional journal of Education.

But the amount of interest stated in the IepOrt is
less than it will bel the future; and in the foregoing
division probably smaller amount should be
charged against the first six months and greater
amount against the last two months than is done,
because that the bonds sold by the company last
April were sold without the July coupon attached.
According TO this division, however, the average
net earning of the first six months were $295,554,
and of the last two only $243, $40.
The mystery of the late movement in Wabash
stock to-day received an explanation. The COM
pany made its report of the result of its August
business showing net earnings for the month of
$235, 1881, which IS an increase over August
of 1877 of $50, ,OSS. The total net earnings
of eight months arc S7S5,909, or an increase Of
Sl4796l over the earnings of the eight months of
1871 Eight months proportion of the cOmpanVs
first charges, as admitted, amount TO 81 100000.
In the meantime the interest due last May on the
second mortgages remains unpaid and we are III
formed that Western creditors yet without pay
ment for supplies furnished last year. For the irst
seven months the company reported its net earn
ings only about % per cent of the gross but for
August the net earnings are reported as nearly 40
per cent of the gross.
The stock market to-day opened dull or heavy,
aud so continued for the greater part of the day,
But toward the close there was sudden revival Of
activity IN the granger stocks and prices closed at
about the best OF the day. Out of total of 10000
