TINES RIVER.
BY 10 w1SrEReRzEx.

In the beauty of the morning
Nv sweet hopes were borne away
By the darkly-howing river,
While l stood to watch and pray.
For awhile they rode so proudly,
Cleaning in the mOrn's glad light.
Then The waters rose to grasp them
Rose 10 crush them, by their might.
Now the. waver-they are sinking:
Seei they plunge beneath the wave
While giftiy-sweeping current
Hurls them to their ocean grave.
Need we weep If Times deep river
Bears our hopes beneath It's tide?
In eternity's forever
We shall find them by onr side.

IusIness Prospects GrOWIng Brighter
and Brighter.

The New York Public of Thursday pre-
Sents report upon the bank clearings OF
the principal cities for the first week in
June that shows that the business situa'
ton Of the country is not only steadily
improving, but really gaining very pro-
nounced and unmistakabIe momentum
in the way Of buoyancy. We quote as
follows:
Exchanges for the first week OF June
are particularly noteworthy in this, that
outside OF New York they exceed those
vi any other week this year, ortor several
years past. The exchanges here, though
1ti.I per cent larger than those OF the cor.
responding week last year, were not
swollen by any excess OF speculation on
the stock Exchange, Tor the sales Of stock
were larger during the tirSt week OF June
last year. The gain in other cities, how.
ever, begins to be surprisingly large. At
Milwaukee it is nearly 80 per cent; at
Chicago and Louisville it is over 40 per
cent; at Boston, Philadelphia and san
Francisco about ~ per cent, and there are
hut two cities in the entire list that do not
share in the increase.
The ratio OF increase outside Of New
York 10 per cent has not been eQuslled
before this year. Returns for the first
week OF each month are always especially
significant As to the condition OF business
at the minor commercial centres and in
the manufacturing regions, and the re-
ports here given are, therefore, the more
encouraging. They unquestlonably indi-
cate very vigorous improvement in the
volume OF business throughout the coun.
Try. and, though the increase Is generally
greater at the chief commercial than at
the manufacturing centres, the ordinary
course Of events would bring special in
crease first 10 the cities mainly employed
IN the delivery and marketing OF bounti-
iul crops. The revival OF manufactures
though less rapid, is certain as long a
prosperous agriculture supplies broad
and solid basis"
The New York Post OF Thursday evening
taking the above as text, makes the follow
ingcomments on it: The above, and theac
companying figures which we have no
room for, confirm the prevailing impres
sion about the improvement in genera
trade. Not only is the volume of bust
ness larger, but it is known that the profit
on business are larger. Unless excessive
speculation in and out OF Wall street pre-
vents, it may, We think, be safely calcu
lated that the autumn trade, which in {
wholesale way will begin next month, viii

SlTrRDAY MORNING, JUNE u, 1879.


TUE Washington City school committee
have been making what appears to be a
thorough investigation Of the molus ope'
sandi Of conducting the exercises Of the
schools Of that city. The committee re-
port as the result Of their investigations
that "more attention is paid to the ma
chinery OF education than to its vitality
that teachers are burdCned with statistical
requirements, by efforts to present toe
high percentages, by too numerous writ
ten examinations, by attempts to teach
too many studies, aud bv compulsory OBJ
servance Of inhexible timetables, anC
their recommendations by way OF remedy
are in sum and substance; "No new
textbooks, fewer studies, more oral in.
structon By teachers, less show.worE
more Of the practical, less Of the theoreti
ral." This is condensed good sense, and
We hope the school board will be able tC
bringit into practical effect in the revised
course OF study.
