contrary system of cen tralization ex
lists which finds its proper para llel in the
French department. Everything is done by
the State, nothing by the town. Even the
lowest municipal officer is made by the GEN.
tral authority. These facts are brought out
forcibly and clearly bv Judge Tourgee, ard
the effect they have upon the recently en-
franchised Southern voter in depriving him
of independence and the practical political
knowledge, self-reliance and political COM
nonsense and aptitude for public affairs,
which the town meeting and the local self
government of our little Northern commu-
mites teach and enforce and make second
nature, and the injury done by that depri-
vation to the nation and to our scheme of
policy are set forth with .vigor and caador
and honesty of purpose. AS the title of the
book indicates, we have put upon the South
the burden imposed upon Israel by the
Egyptian task-master. We have set them to
making bricks without straw. We expect
the freedmen to gain by intuition that polit-
ical knowledge and self reliance and wise
governmental sense which we only acquired
through long, and stormy and perilous years
and we do not permit them to profit by
our experience. We ask them to emulate
US, and we withhold from them the condi-
tions under which we were successful.
These are the didactics of Judge Tour
gees latest book. "Bricks without Straw
is something more than political treatise,
however. Most emphatically novel with a
purpose, it is as we'll an admirably told tale.
Sometimes slovenly written, it never fails in
picturesqueness, and is strongly dramatic
throughout. We hear less Of the Invisible
Empire than we did in "a FOOLS Errand,"
for another phase of the reconstruction
period is presented. The night-rder gives
place to that quite as effective though
less rude political instrument the tissue
ballot. The road-agent disappears and in
his stead we have the confidence man. The
highwayman has become the sneak-thief.
Yet the story is quite as stirring, is told with
as much art, and the actors in the drama
pictured with force and discrimination.

determined and unscrupulous minority
hold by fraud the rights they wrested by
force hom the majority; and the tender
love-tale which runs like silver thread
through the sombre woof of the work will
enchain the attention of the careless who
read for amusement only.
The work is written, for the most part,
in that vein Of grave irony which marked
"a FOOLS Errand," and like that remarka-
BILE book, is characterized by absence of Wit
operation, by just and even generous recog-
milton of the nohler traits and finer qualities
of the Southern people and keen but kindly
analysis of the Southern character. 1t is a
work that interests as well as edifies, a seed
book that will stimulate thought and give
birth to action. Whatever may be said of
the remedies it prescribes heed will be Civ
en- to the menacing evils it depicts.

New YORK Tribune: Yesterday morning
when most of the Democratic newspapers
were engaged in hiding away the election
returns from Ohio and Indiana in their
smallest type and painfully endeavoring to
''talk about something else," one of them,
published in New Haven, had the assurance
to publish an extra that blossomed with
roosters and was "broken out all over" will
headlines in large type announcing Demo-
cratic victories. 1t was difficult to find any
thing to crow over, in the news, but that
seemed to make no difference. The editer
was as cheerful as the young doctor who
was asked about a confinement case.
'Well," said he, "the child is dead, and so
is the mother, but think l can pull the old
man through" I"

In the Boston Herald of Sept. IA, read tie
following advertisement:
VXTANTEp:-A chance to work in some well estab-

Now, as has been aforetime observed by Mr..
Weller, you generally find every advertisement
in paper promptly answered by a card in the
next column of the same issue. Where you
find the appeal of man for situation as
salesman, you frequently find beside it the in
quiry of man who is looking for a salesman.
If one man has horse to sell there is usually
some man who wants to buy horse. And so

THE GERMAN PUBLIC ScHooL.-The
rapid progress which the children make
in school hours. justifies the govern
ment in shortening the school day. In
sumner the primary schools open al
seven in The morning. They are dis
missed for the day half an hour after
the American child begins his studies.
The older the class. the more hours are
required, until for the very oldest the
number OF hours in the school day %
about equal TO our own. But where
the day shortens, the term lrngthens.
Two hours and half of daily study
will hurt no common child of seven
years, which is the minimum age for
admission, though he be kept at il the
year round. Consequently the prima-
ries have but q few weeks vacation,
two, if we remember rightly, in the
whole year, and that Is not for their
own sake, but for the sake Of their
teachers. The older the scholars the
longer the school days and the longer
vacation which reaches its utmost length
with university students.
A German common school has about
rs high grade as an American high
school. The recitations showed mas
terry Of the subject. The scholars were
all under sixteen, but in addition 70 all
that our common schools teach, knew
the rudIments Of two languages besides
their mother tongue, English and
French. They were proficient in al
zebra and geometry and the elements
OF chemistry. The latter science turned
them into enthusiasts. One boy actu-
