classification Of Pupils.
In the proper classification Of q
school, what shold receive our first
consideration |? I'll >
In an article published some time
ago, the classifying of bright pupils
by themselves was, / believe, advo-
Gated. as
Should aptness receive our first con-
alteration? and are there not other
matters of even greater importance to
the first considered?
Constitutional characteristics should
receive the first thought. Mind and
body are closely connected, and
health should be first considered.
Many pupils who have quick, strong
minds Lave not the requisite physical
endurance to carry out-ths full de-
sires of The mind ; hence IN the strug
gle for supremacy both body and
mind r often seriously injured.
1t is generally much better and
safer to regulate theprogress OF quick,
bright pupils. by. classifying them
with pupils whose judgment may be
more deliberate, and whose mental
powers may not shine SO brightly. 1t
would he beneficial to both; to the
first by restraining them, and pre-
venting the too rapid development of
the mind and body. To the second
class, by stimulating them to increas-
ed atiyity, quickening by contact
their reasoning powers, and rousing
in them a generous spirit Of emula-
ion. So a
The slow thinker are frequently
the deepest, and it certainly would
net benefit such to place them by
themselves, and make them think
that they are regarded as the ''dull''
class Of the school.
Activity and brilliancy o. mind are
too often mistaken for depth and
strength. The mistake 10 often not
seen until injury Is effected.
Age, as with pupils who have been
deprived Of early school privileges,
must receive some consideration /; for
with all minds Of any ability, each
year serves to strengthen them by the
addition Of facts gathered in the light
OF experience, and better fits them
for the reception of other knowledge.
The entire nature of each pupil
should receive careful consideration,
80 as to classify the school ia work
to the best advantage, as well as to
preserve and promote the physical
and mental vigor of each pupil, the
delicately-organized, quick, nervous
pupil a be properly restrained, and
the mind Of the slow thinking pupil
quickened by contact in classes.
II, however, the physical organiza-
ton Of a pupil be found equal or su.
perior in power and endurance to the
active mind within, such pupil should
be permitted to pass on and leave be.
hind his more deliberat fellow-stu.

Under no circumstances should
bright pupils be classified by them

and endurance of bodily powers,
otherwise physical powers and vigor

Madame Bonaparte's Jewels.

The Orphans Court yesterday re-
quested Mr.. Joseph III. Gale, jeweler,
on Baltimore street, near Calvert, to
appraise the jewels Of the late Mad
anne Patterson-Bonaparte. The jewels
comprise a rare collection OF dia-
monds, rubies, pearls, emeralds and
gold ornaments, and are remarkable
for their original value in themselves
and for their present value rs relics
of former days and historical asso-
Citations. Their original value was
probably $4,000, but their present
intrinsic value is about $40, 900, moi,
taking into account the value which
might attach to them from their as
sociations.
The most valuable article among
the COLLECTION is a necklace of dia
monds, emei aids, rubies and pearl
of handsome design and workman
ship. The pendant is a large soil
taire diamond, and the setting of all
the stones is extremely quaint. Th S
necklace was the gift of a nobieman.
Its present value is $4,000 or there
abouts. A crown of a~methysts and
pearls, fully three inches wide, is
valued at about $500. There are
several antique pearl necklaces worth
from $50 to $500 each. Two hand
some stones, known as antique, are
set for pendants. One is transparent
and the other is similar to q came
liam.
A black enameled bracelet made in
Paris and set with American 81 80
gold pieces is quite q novelty. 1t is
worth 500. Another bracelet is
made of six S. gold pieces and Il
French coin linked together with
gold. A third bracelet is most cuI'-.
Gus and unique. 1t is maize of gol"
wire taken from the wrist of a skek-
ton in Pompeii. The three watches
mc very old, and their intrinsic v'lue
is not over $40 each. Two are open
faced watches, while the third Is a.
small hunting-case, set with pearls
around the edges OF the outer cases
One of the open-faced watches Is
blue enameled, and WIS given to
Madame Bonaparte by her grand
father. 1t is supposed TO be nearly
800 years old. In addition to nu-
merous vinaigrettCs, two memorial
rings and one antique cameo ring,
there arc seven rich and valuable
head ornaments Of pearls and gar
nets.-Baltimore Bulletin.

-nu the retention of laws
under the operation of which it will
be possible for an executive to in
flu nee the choice OF a sufficiency of
Representatives and Senators to hold
the balance Of power in Congress, so
as 10 enable HIM to determine what
laws shall be passed, the amount of
taA alton, the objects for which appro-
pr!Ations shall be made, the size and
employment Of armies and that he
may even secure reelection or escape
impeachment.
This is what il contemplated Ivy
this veto, and all classes Of citizens
ought to become aware of its meta
rious designs. Against such en-.
croachments the Democracy is array
ed and it needs nc prophet to fortell
who wilf~be victorious. The history
of our race has been q continuous
fight for liberty and the current of its
successive triumphs over despotism
cannot be arrested now.
BY this veto appeal is taken to the
masses. That they will ultimately
pronounce wisely and executive justly
is certain. This veto necessarily in
creases the intensity and bitterness OF
the struggle, but freedom of election
and impartial trial by jury will never
be surrendered in this country.

islation.

For years, Indifference in regard
to what was said in Congress has
been a lamentable feature of public
sentiment. Anxiety enough as to
results, and the character Of the votes
cast to reach them, has been mani
tested; but long since, people ceased
to expect enlightenment from Con-
gressional debate. Universal almost
as such condition of thought has been,
it overcome the country gradually.
1t sprarg from incorporate and in
cendiary Republican speeches, and
became more and more intensified as
the nation beheld with regret what
seem ed to be at first designed to
cement union finally degenerate into
crusade against liberty until the entire
machinery of q triumphant party was
directed to the attainment of ends,
that lie beyond the domain Of con-
sfltutlonal authority.
With the new Congress, a more at
tractivc style Of oratory has been in
augurated by the Democracy, and
desire for what is said is beginning to
be manifested. The calm, clear, con-
vincine and even brilliant speeches
of Blackburn and Carlisle in the
House, and Of Davis, voorhees, and
Bayard In the Senate have shed q
food of light on the conflict for free
elections waged between the Demo.
cratic and Republican parties. After
perusing them no right minded man
can listen with patience and without
disgust to the pe%tulant clamors of
such disclaimers as Blaine, Conkling
and Edmunds. In the
Il .foU t&tbL5 1BG .G
Senator Davis did but utter a truism
when he declared that the people Of
this country were in no mood for the
continuance of sectional luminosity
but will most honor the statesman,
who avoiding past issues, shall con-
tribute most to their stock of consti
iutional knowledge. Mr.. Carlisle by
