FEMALE EDUCATION.

1t is not an easy matter to make SEN
sible speech about female education, but
Earl Granville succeeded in doing it two
weeks ago at the annual distribution Of
prizes in a North London school for
girls. lie remarked that objections
were very often made against giving a
high-cl education to women. 1t was
said that it might turn young ladies into
pedants an d into blue-stockings He
would certainly admit that he had met
some very disagreeable specimens of
womankind, who readily deserved those
terms, but they were ladies who had
some slight smattering knowledge, and
who had not really received sound and
first rate education. Had not young
men, however, occasionally been found
to be pedantic and conceited in the ex-
RENE? Anolher objection was that
women were being taken out Of their
sphere; but was it perfectly clear that a
thorough moral, intellectual and relig-
ious education must spoil women for
their own peculiar sphere, for their du-
ties as daughters, wives, mothers, and
members of the community? The times
were past when a great literary charac-
ter could assert that it was easier for a
coquette to marry than highly in
structed woman, would know how to
appreciate those members of the oppo-
site sex who fitted themselves by study
and industry to become really useful
members of the community 10 which
they belong.

DEATH BY HANGING PAINLESS.

All the evidence goes TO show that
death By hanging is painless, and there
is positively no fact or well founded
opinion to the contrary. If this be the
case, then, what is the explana ion Of it?
Simply this: That in every form Of
strangulation the blood vessels of the
neck are compressed, as well as the air
passages. A large part of the blood is
returned from the head by the external
jugular veins, which are very near the
surface, and in which the current can be
checked by slight pressure. Most of the
blood from the brain itself comes back
through the internal jugulars, which lie
near. but a little outside of the carotid
arteries. The walls of veins are lax and
Welding, so as to be easily compressed,
while those of the arteries are firm and
elastic, and it requires considerable
force to approximate them. Pressure,
then, which is sufficient to close the
jugular veins only crowds the carotids
a little farther inward, and the blood is
still poured through them into the brain,
whence it cannot escape. When this
pumping process is going on at the rate
of seventy strokes minute, it is easy to
understand how the engagement ofthe
vessels of the brain in very brief time
reaches degree which causes insensi-
biIity. To explain why this congestion
causes inconsistencies would involve
technical discussion which would
here be out of place. 1t must suffice to
saw that it does; so that, as the cerebral
congestion in hanged person brings on
insensibility within minute, while the
physical agony of suffering does not
begin until later, it follows that the vic
tim does not feel any of the pangs OF
asphyxia. He first becomes insensible,
with accompanying pleasurable feelings
from cerebral congestion, and then is
choked to death while unconscious

THE BOSE OF EDEN.

Fair Eve knelt close by the guarde;
gate, in the glow of the Eastern spring
She saw the flash Of the angels swort
and the sheen of the angels wing;
She thought, as she held her sobbinl
breath, she could hear the happy sigh
OF the tiny riyulets that fed the moses
Of Paradise;
She knew how the birds we're fluttering
among the clustered flowers
And gorgeous blooms and arching tree:
that shadowed Eden's bowers,
And she cried aloud in an agony Of wild
remorseful prayer:
"Give me one bud, but one, but one from
the thousand that blossom there!"
He turned as he heard her piteous voice
in his grave, angelic grace,
And he looked with a wistful tenderness:
on the beautiful woman's face;
And because it was so beautiful and
because she could not see
How fair were the pure white cyclamen
crushed dying at her knee;
And because he knew this punishment
through the weary years must burn,
That through all things weetand good on
earth her heart would forEden yearn.
He gathered a rich, red rose, that grew
where the four great rivers met,
And flung it TO the frail, fatal hands that
clasped imploring yet.
And though for many cycle past that
rose in dust has lain,
With her who bore it on her breast,
when she passed from life and pain,
There is never a daughter of Eve but
once, ere the tale of her days is done,
She will know the scent of the Eden
rose, Just once, beneath the sun.
And whatever else she may win or lose,
endure or do, or dare,
She will never forget the enchantment
it gave to the common air;
For the world may give her content or
joy, fame, sorrow or sacrifice,
But the hour that brought the scent Of
the rose, she lived it in Paradise.

lump size. The design of the company
is to illustrate practically the advantages
OF using, both for manufacturing and
domestic purposes, the hard, clean coal
of the United States in preference to The
soft, bituminous coal of Europe, where
anthracite is not found and is almost
unknown.
Twelve hundred and si1tynine Com
munists, who had earned indulgence by
"con.ritiOn, submission, and diligence,
have been allowed remission or commu-
tation of punishment in honor Of the

objects of clemency, AS Of them receiv

In presence of a large and brilliant
assembly of the scientific and fashionable
society of Paris Mr. Henry N Stanley, the
African explorer, was on Friday evening
last presented with q grand gold medal
of the French Geographical Society.
The ceremony took place in the Amphi-
theatre of the Sorbonne, under the
presidency of Vice Admiral Baron de Ia
Ronciere lie Naury, Senator. Marshal
Mac cMahon, President of the Republic,
was represented by Commandant Baron
LLangsdorf, and amongst those present
were NJ de Lesseps, NJ Broch, formerly
Minister of Marine of Norway, and
Madame Canrboert, wife of the Marshal
On his entrance to the hall Mr. Stanley
was received with loud cheers. After
NJ William Auber had read a report on
the prizes awarded by the society, the
President presented the grand gold
medal 10 Mr. Stanley in recognition Of
the services rendered by him to science
and humanity. In doing so the Presi-
dent, who spoke in good English. said
it was duty of which he was proud to
be commissioned by the Geographical
Society to deliver TO Mr. Stanley their
gold medal, the highest award of their
association. In returning thanks Mr.
Stanley expressed hope that he would
soon see the time when Central Africa
would be as well known as Senegal or
Algeria LOUIS.

TURNIP GROWING.

As this subject has attracted some
attention lately in this column, we give
below the experience of "Aqucoln"
correspondent in the Ohio Farmer. He
saws:
To a crop of turnips the ground
ue-1s to be only moderately rich, but
it nust be rery fine. You can not do
too much in the way of rolling, bar
rowing and dragging, and the more
compact the soil is the better, so you
have two inches of fine, mellow soil
for the turnip to start in. I have
grown good crop by burning of wheat
stubble, and eultivating and harrow
ing the surface until mellow, and
prefer this to plowing the land. Ihave
never tried superphosphate or bone
dust for turnips, but / should think
that these manures would be exactly
suited to the crop, and l expect to try
them this year. In pu,verizing land
for tnrnips, and to cover the seed, there
is nothing so good as a plank drag; is
grinds up the clods and leaves a mel
low surface, and in covering the seed
it presses the earth on it so as to make
it germinats readily.
it requires considerable care to SOW
;urnip seed just right; nearly every
oI.e puts it on too thick. Some mix
with ashes or dust, but can SOW bet
ter oIear. use only the thumb and
fore finger, and SOW about six feet wide
cast to every other step. The best
time 20 SOW is the first ten days in Au-
gust, bat if / have large crop to SOW,
begin as early as the middle of July;
these early sown turnips, however, are
nat 20 sweet and nice for the table as
the later crop. There is one rule Of
the utmost Importance in sowing tnr-
nips. and attribute my success to its
observance more than to all other
eau-es. and that is-al'cays soa0 as SO0l
gtter rain ds.the ground cIn be aCorked.
F.on long experience | am sure that
there are more failures in turnip grow
img frou the almost universal practice
of sowing just before rain than from
all c Cther causes combined. On sandy
soils this may be different. as all my
experience has been on a clay soil.
A ,uruip must start to grow at once,
or It will either be destroyed by the
garden flea or choked with weeds.
When we SOW before q rain a crust
forms, or If the rain is a heavy one the
IaI d runs together and settles down
hard and compact, and invariably .
crop of weeds will start with the tur-
nips; but if the seed is sown after .
rain the weeds do not start with the
turnips, and the plants gro " SO rapidly
as to escape the fly. / have tried drill
ling turnips and can grow a larger crop
than by broadcasting, but they must
be thinned and cultivated, and l can
grow them cheaper to broadcast them
/ do not know how large a crop oftur-
nips could be grown on an acre, but ]
believe that with every foot of soil oe-
cupied, and the fall good one, on
thousand bushels could be grown
I have grown five hundred bushels, and
have for years averaged three hundred
bushels to the acre. There Is no var
iety better than the purple top strap
leaf, it is Of quick growth, very hardy,
and will outsell any other in the mar
ket.

My limbs relaxed; my senses almos

muscular exertion might bring on tor
ments to which I was then insensible;
and yet had no feeling of pain; perhaps
some merciful paralysis had cut me of

"And so you were. You'd have been
a dead man by this, but just in the nick

was pretty nearly done; but l caught
sight of you against the gliding, and then
you gave a sort of moan, and says l.:
There's death here if | can't think of
something in minute And then l
recollected that I'd heard the workmen
chaps whistle three times, like this, when
they wanted the rope lowered, and l
piped away, and then the rope stopped
and began to come down. l shouted to
you to hold on and keep your heart up;
but don't think you heard me, for when
your face came in sight it was white like
death. and your eyes closed-but you
still holding on--till, as say, you came
within three feet of the floor, and then
you gave a quiver and fell, and caught
you in my arms, for you were in dead
faint. But what were you about to let
them draw you up like that ?"
Then / told him of my gymnastic
feats.
"Oh, then, 1 suppose You shook the
rope. That's the signal 10 pull up, and
up they pulled, and they never knew
what sort of load they were hauling

Between the dusk and the day light,
When the shadows longest grow,
There comes a silence on all things
It's the hour when one speaks low
We sit in the parlor together,
And heavily ON the air
Floats the familiar fragrance.
OF the heliotrope in your hair.
And in the kindly twilight
l see your dark eyes shine;
l feel the touch Of your garments,
Ofyour soft white hand in mine.
And one might see in the parlor,
When the day is almost done,
On the wall two tremulous shadows
Of faces melt into one.
