"All is lost. All is not lost. The
niR remairg.' Thus spoke Daniel
Webster-parapbrasing Milton
some years ago-Thus we speak
now.
The democracy have been beaten
in a preliminary skirmish. The
battle is yet to be fought. Our
presidents are elected in November
not in October.
The news from Ohio and Indiana
is dlscouraging. 1t is not and can
not be disheartenlng. Hancock won
the battle of Gettysburg and saved
the union on the third day. Let
the party whose standard bearer he
Is take heed of his experience. He
did not despair then. He does not
despair now. Neither should, nci
ther must we.
Three weeks are left of the cam
paign. In the meantime we should
work as no party ever worked be-
fore.
The republicans have much
harder struggle before them. They
must fight along the whole line of
battle and must win everywhere.
They must carry Ohio. They must
carry Indiana. They must carry
Maine. They must carry New
York. II they fail IN q single IN
stance, they are beaten.
Let us put our trust in provi
denco, and labor increasingly in
our righteous cause, until the day
of election. Let us determine to
rebuke the fraud of 1876. Let us
resolve to restore to the country
It's constitutional form Of govern
ment. Let us hold to our purpose
to prevent the election of dishon.
est man to the presidency. Let
us carry New York, Indiana, New
Jersey and Connecticut.
We shall yet win.

IT has been said, with some ap.
pearance OF truth, that in point OF
principle there is little difference
between the republican and demo-

about the same thing, If so, look

candidates. Garfield, admitted to
be a bribe. .taker, periurer and
Hancock, admitted by the republ''

NOVEL APPLICATION OF BEER.

The last mail from Montevideo states
that a fire broke out on the 9th ult. in
Schenzer's extensive German brewery and
bierhaus in that city. All available sup
plies of water having been exhausted, and
the flames still progressing, the fire bri-
gade asked and received permission Of the
proprietor to make use of the large stock
of beer on the premises in'order to continue
their operations. The President of the
Republic, Colonel Latorre, the Minister of
the Interior, and a number of officers assis-
ted at the ~contiagration, which was not
extinguished until it had cost the life of
one man by sufocation and more or
less severe injuries to many others, in adj
dition to the loSs-which some of the re-
porters appear to have considered the most
cruel of all-of som 10000 gallons of beer

OVERWORKED SCHOOL BOYS.

Professor Treichler has delivered a lee
ture before the German Association of Ma
t~ura!ists and Physicians which contains q
fact of some interest to teachers. He says
that headache in schools decidedly increas-
es, until in some schools, and notably In
Nuremberg, one-third of the scholars suffer
from it. He believes that the cause is
over Intellectual exertiou, caused partly
by the adoption of too many Subjects. but
principally by the tendency to demand
nighl-work. The brain is then freshly
taxed when its cells are exhausted. We
begin to hear the same complaint in Eng
land, especially from London schools, and
are tempted to believe that in some Of
them an imperceptible but steady increase
in the amount of night-work demanded
has been going on, which is passingia safe
limit. 1t does not hurt the quick, and
it does not hurt the stupid, but it does burt
the boys and girls who want to fnlfil all
demands, and have not quite the quickness,
to do it. The usual quantity, Of Latin, for
example, to be learned at night has within.
the last thirty years more than doubled,
while the pressure from parerts3npohsthe
children, to learn it all has inereasedin
nearly the same proportion. IL The Tinoreas.-
ed crowding of schools explains much, but
it does not explain this headaches wbichis
not suffered by the boys in proportion to,
their i'll health.- Spectator. T.. 'gtae -

transformations are little known, and
he thinks instruction should be given
in village schools on such subjects,
and hat the walls should be hung
with diagrams illustrative of these
matters. Poor schoolmasters, always
leaving out something which ought
to be known, and laughed at when
they introduce the "ologies" into their
course of instruction. Let those who
know English village children fancy
their being treated to long disgust
tons on difficult branches Of natural
history, which even to the learned are
"not quite known according to Mr..
Buckmaster's own confession. By
taking off a little of the roughness Of
untutored nature rural schools may
help to make the minders of stock less
cruel, and somewhat more thought
full for them and if the schools do this
it is as much as can be expected from
them.

From a telegram it appears that
Jul own Government has been asked
by that of Great Britain to aid in
looking for the "AtalantG" by institu-
ting a search along the coast Of Green
land. If it is true hat this request
has been made there is little doubt
that it will be responded to with
hearty sympathy; but it is difficult
to understand what hope there can be
of finding the vessel near the shores
Of Greenland, as the surface current
through Bafin's Bay and Davis's Strait
flows to the south. A letter to the
Times says that if the vessel seen bot
tom upwards by the lamar were
really copper sheathed, as it was sta
ted to be, there is every reason to
fear the worst, as merchant vessels use
yellow metal, and only in the Navy
is copper used.

appears that the evidence against him
