question, bu. Mr.. Hayes seems to have
decidedly the advantage In the 6ght, for
if no confirmation u had of the new ap-
pointments he can make others after the
adjournment, and thus prevent Conk-
ling's friends from keeping .hc cmcca.
In addition 10 this the President seems
disposed to take advantage Of his oppo-
nents by threatening not TO make any
nomination for the German mission un-
til his New York appointments have
been acted on. Thus all Senators who
have friends applying for this appoint
ment will vote TO sustain the New York
appointments. Taking everything into
consideration, We are inclined to believe
that the administration will whip DR.
Conkling out in this fight.

we presume, fneansvefy much the same
thing rs educating q boy 10 be a father.
"A boy is. educated To be father by pre-
pairing him 10 earn a living in some
honest calling; or, in other words, To
support a family in comfort, and behave
well in oil respects as the head Of
family. But such an education has 10
havein view the calling he will probably
pursue, and not any vague thing called
his fullest development" IL a boy is
going TO be a mechanical engineer, il is
not educating him 10 be father to
occupy large portion of his time in hiE
learning years with music and the clas-
sizes. He would doubtless, as father, be
the better Of music and the classics, just
rs every hotel waiter would be the better
Of university education and foreign
travel; but in education, as in other
things, the limitations of human lifes sof
human capacity, and Of the labor market,
have 10 be taken into account. So, also,
in educating woman to rear children
and manage a household, you educate
her for the calling which eighty per cent.
Of her sex follow. 1t may be a small or
mean calling, as most callings are, full
Of drudgery and containing little chance
for the "fullest development" but II is
tremendous fact from which there is
no escape. The truth is that the passion
for Development and impatience of
inevitable daily duties is one of the
greatest causes of the social troubles
through which we are passing 1t is at
the bottom Of the kearney insanity. If
one Sits his rawlings, one finds that, in
so far as he represents anything, he rep
resents the widespread desire 10 abandon
dull labor and begin Developing" His
way of accomplishing his object is TO sit
down and issue "city scrip" for the sup
ply Of his wants, which is, of course,
childish but wiser and more intelligent
people than he arc touched by this mad
ness. The best cure for il is the thorough
indoctrination Of the young with the
belief that the prime object Of education
is preparation, not for an ideal sphere,
but for the duties which, in all proba-
bility the pupil will have to perform,
however lowly they may be; and no
worse injury can be done to young
person than by sneering at them as
something unworthy of his or her highest
powers.
