Mr. BgEcHER says that one-half of
the human family are eaters, not pro-
ducers. Speaking of immigration, he
saws there is no fear SO long as our i'll
stitutons have the assimulating pow
e., and when the lion eats the kid he
does not turn into kid, but the latter
turns into lion. When the children Of
immigrants get through the public
schools they are all Americans. The
greatest needed revival is not of reli-
gion. of temperance or of commerce,
but of common schools.
