WELL SAID.-The Springfield Re.
publican, in an editorial on "Moral
Teaching in Public Schools, " comments
upon the decline of the old.fashioned
academies, says: "Much of the char
acter. forming of the best American
days, especially the best New England
days, was due to the admirable rural
Academies, which the High Schools
have largely supplanted and ruined.
The Principals Of these Academies had
long leases Of incumbency-often for a
generation; and the unity for spirit
that was guaranteed, the clan feeling OF
being under one chief, and he usually
a man of real intellectual and moral
force, induced a pride and encouraged
a tone that were not without salutary
effect upon the life records Of the mem
bers. The present generation is taught
in a great many more directions than
its predecessors, but its teachers have
not half the opportunity-often, alas
not half the capacity or ambition-of
their forerunners, to form the moral
character of the children"

The Army AND JUDICIARY Bills

looks as though the sagacity of Wal.
lace and McMahon, two of the coolest
heads and best equipped minds, legally,
in the Democratic party, had put the
Judicial Bill into such shape that tho
malignity and ingenuity Of the Stall
warts will be alike powerless TO justify
the President in veoting it. Tho Leg

equally unobiectionable in form and
spirit The Army Bill, as harmless as
tho Declaration Of Independence itself,
is hung up in the Senate, in order that

OF an excuse for vetoing either of these

The death OF Prince Louis Napoleon
dashes to the ground the long cherish.
cd hopes of the Imperial party of
France. From the ialloi Sedan they
have looked forward 10 the time when
the son of Louis Napoleon would as
ceud the throne OF his father. TO this
end all their intrigues against the Re-
public were directed In order that
his name might be kept before the
public the Prince was persuaded to
Join the expedition against the Zulus
in South Africa, at whose hands he has
met with miserable death. His
grandfather began his career as a
soldier Of fortune and ended il in exile.
HIS father closed life of adventure
some of which was far from credible in
disaster and defeat. The last OF this
line of imperial adventures begins and
ends his career in tho wilds of South
Africa. There is tragic similarity in
the fate of all three OF them.
