boys to practicing the violin so many hours day
and studying harmony 1 told him to form for
them singing class under the care OF good
teacher, that they might learn to use their vocal
organs, to form good tone, and to read music =.
after they became old enough, to let them Join q
choral society, where, for two hours, once a week
they could assist in singing good music; and,
above all, to afford them every opportunity Of
OF hearing good music Of every kind. This gen.

COMPRESSED peat in London, and
indeed in almost all the towns of co :
siderable size throughout Great Britain,
is rapidly coming into use. On one of
the most important railroad lines, too,
compressed peat has for some time past
been used, and with entire satisfaction,
the fact appearing, from the engineers
report, that twenty-one pounds of peat
will raise steam for a mile of transit,
while the number of pounds OF coal
required to do the same work is twenty
six. Its cost is less than one-half that
of coal.
THE metric system seems to be max
ing progress in this country. In the
Marine Hospital service it has proved
an unqualified success, and the Medical
Journal states that nearly all visiting
lists, call-books and dose-books, as well
as works on Materia Medica, are now
being printed with metric equivalents,
while in many medical colleges it is now
hardly possible for students to learn, or !
the instructor to impart, such branches
as histology, physiology, chemistry,
ETC., without introducing the metric
system.
