This paragraph on secondary education
from the Boston Advertiser is worth con-
sidcration: ''Educaton is more impor-
tant than instruction, for the aim of edu
cation is character, while the purpose of
instruction is knowledge; and character
is better, as well as stronger, than knowl-
edge The subject thus alluded to marks
the great difference between the Boston
Latin School and such establishments as
Eton and Rugby and the few good acade-
mics of New England. These can edu-
cate, while the American public high
school can do very little beyond instruc-
and will explain why our public schools,
particularly those of the secondary grade,
are more than Eton and Rugby in need
of superior teachers-teachers who not
only know much and do much, but also
are much and know we'll and do well.
No fault is found here with the teachers
of the Boston Latin School. On the con-
trary, they deserve confidence and re-
spect, and if need be praise. But the
general experience may be stated to be,
that the best appointed countries, such
as England, France, Germany and the
United States, have six, and perhaps
twelve or twenty good university profess
sors to one good secondary school teach
er Yet good high school or academy
teacher should be held in the same esteem
. as distinguished college or university
professor. 1t is to be regretted that SO
few young men of character and high
scholarship devote the whole of their life
to secondary instruction"

A Nine-cent Dinner.

How to Cook Nine-Ccnt Dinner was
q subject sufficiently attractive to draw
nearly five hundred persons, mostly la
dies, last evening to Franklin Institute.
Suspended above the platform, in full
view Of the audience. was gigantic bill
of-fair which read as follows: "A nine
cent dinner for twenty-five persons.
Pea-soop, Is cents Irish stew, 20 cents;
curly potatoes, cents: pork and beans,
32 cents; veal croquettes, 25 cents; cold
slaw, 10 cents maccaroni, Is cents; rice
pudding, 26 cents; apple dumplings, 80
cents coffee and milk, % cents"
The platform presented an unusual
scene. On the right was a stand covered
with pots, pans kettles and numerous
other kitchen utensils. Next was table
upon which to prepare the ingredients
for the dinner, while on the left was a
sun-dial gas stove, already to, receive the
dishes for cooking. Francis Wells open
cd the exhibition by explaining that a
nine-cent dinner was given on March Sd
at the New Century Cooking School, No.
1112 Girard Street, to twenty-five per-
sons, and it was the object of the man
agement to practically demonstrate just
how such dinner could be prepared SO
economically. Mrs. Rorer, the tutor at
the school, was then introduced, and she
appeared prettily attired in a dark dress
covered with dainty white apron and
wearing picturesque headdress of the
Martha Washington style. She explain
ed the manner of cooking the different
articles at considerable length. h.-Ptladel-

White
Sewing
Machine

1t is an acknowledged fact that the
White Sewing Machine now stands pre-
eminent among frst-class machines, for
it's simplicity and light-running qualities.
1t is a mechanical fact that the White
Sewing Machine is made from the best
material and of excellent workmanship,
and all it's wearing parts are adjustable,

1t is an undisputed fact that the dura-
bility of the White Sewing Machine is
sustained by q written warranty for five
years.
1t is a progressive fact that the White
embodies the most practical and useful
improvements of other sewing machines,
together with advantages peculiarly it's

WASHINGTON.

Washington, 2S.-Mahone's speech
was far less sensational than his
first effort The democrats did moi
interrupt him, apparently having Sc
agreed. AT $50, he was warmed up
thoroughly. and defended Riddle
berger and asserted that Johnston
was elected because he had no re-
cord, and could again be elected on
the same ground. The interest flag
ged about o'clock. This speech
evidently strengthened the determi-
nation of the democrats to fight.
They consider it an attack on the
entire democracy, especially on the
south. They say they viii never al
low the election of Riddleberger.
The feeling is very bitter, and even
if Riddleberger should be with
drawn, it is doubtful if the demo-
Gratis would cease filibustering.

OvERFLOwED.
Condition of she Overlooked
Railroad Sections.

Omaha, Neb., 2S.-The situation in
| the inundated district on the Platte
River is much better than anyone
had reason to expect. The telegraph
repairers went to work early yeSter-
day morning and succeeded In get
ting up the fallen wires between
Fremont and Columbus this after
noon, by which through commune
cation along the Union Pacific was
resumed. Dispatches received
at the Unien Pacific headquarters
give the condition of the track at
the old washout, three miles west of
Fremont. The new track which was
finished last Thursday, was mostly
washed away, many of the timbers
being floated clear into Fremont.
Further west stretch of nearly six
miles is so badly washed that it will
have to be almost entirely re-
built. at North Bend, there is
a serious and extensive washout
From North Bend to Columbus the
track is in fair shape. The pile
bridge, just east of Loup River
bridge, was partially swept away,
and on both sides of Loup River
there are extensive WashOuts. a
gang of nearly 100 bridge repairers
are working hard at Loup River pile
bridge, and large gangs of track re-
pairers are working from each end of
the flooded portion of the road, the
water subsiding yesterday, so they
push right along. BY the end of
this week, at the farthest, trains will
be running over the eastern division
as usual. To-day they were started
west by way OF the Kansas City
road to st. Joe, and from there over
the st. Joe and Western to Grand
Island, on the Union Pacific main
line, beyond the flooded section.
The Burlington and Missouri road,
over which the Union Pacific has
been running trains is in bad shape,
owing to high water having rend-
cred two or three bridges unsafe,
and several Union Pacific trains are
now delayed on that road, but ex-
pect to get in tomorrow. The
Burlington and Missouri road ran
no trains to-day between Omaha
and Lincoln on account of high
water on the track and the inse-
curity of the Platte River bridge.
The Union Pacific bridge over the
Missouri River was considerably
shaken by the breaking of the ice
gorge yesterday afternoon. 1t was
tested this morning thoroughly and
found to be all right, after which
trains were allowed to pass over as
usual. AS yet no reliable reports
have been received of the loss OF
human lives either in the Loup or
Platte Valley, but great many
cattle, hogs, ETC., must have persisted,
as they were seen floating down
with the flood. Some farm
houses were destroyed here and
there, but the occupants all es-
capped. Some, however. had a close
call. The Missouri River is re-
ported to have risen twenty-five feet
at Yankton yesterday, owing to an
ice gorge, and it is expected that this
will raise the river considerably here
tonight. Elkhorn River is rising
and gorging at the Union Pacific
bridge, and trouble is expected there.

Bad for Bernhardt,

Sarah Bernhard is the great ex
citement just at present. She is the
one subject of conversation il
Boston and New York"
What do you think of her whole

"They act nobly," said Eli, with 6
satirical look. didn't Christ SpurI
Mary MagdAlen? Our Savior didn'i
say. Let him among you who is
without sin cast the first stone Oh
no; he kicked poor Mary Magdalen
down and sat on her."
ado you think Sara Bernhardt
very wicked ?"
Every. When she was a little in
nocent girl, with no father or mother
to watch over her, she fell in love
with a medical student. He won
her love, promised to marry her, and
one day Sara found herself the
mother of an innocent little baby.
Then when the medical student de-
serted her, with none but God to
help her, wicked Sarah took that
little babe to her bosom, reared it
and brought it up. If she had been
good plOus woman, she would have
thrown the babe in the river, or
dropped it off the column Vendome.
But no: Sara the wretch raised it,
loved it, and spared its life. Now
that medical student was what l call
a high-toned Christian man. He de-
serted Sara and the babe-fled the
town, and instead of wasting money
to support that babe, he spent it
nObly in the saloons for rum and
brandy. But there is one mean
thing about Sara that has not been
spoken Of"
what is that 2"
"Why fifteen years after she saved
her baby, she became rich and IA

out the father of her babe. He was
poor and starving, and what do you
think that mean, miserable woman
did? Why she gave him money
and clothes. Fed him, and even
now she allows him $500 a year, to
keep him from the poorhouse. Oh,
Sara Bernhard is very bad
woman-very, and still Mary Mag
dalen was the last at the cross, and

sympsthies Of the jurors and the
adroitness. of the lawyer have more to
do in framing the verdict than the

the Kslloch jury was made up of men
who thought more OF the murderer
than they did OF his victim. Their
minds were made up when they went
into-the box, and no evidence coulG

this to be true. All knew that young
Kallooh killed Charles DeYouDg, and
no one believed that DeYoung fred

doubt in the mind of any person as to
this latter point, that doubt must

well known periurers, like Clemet

LATEST TELEGRAMS.
FORTYSEvENrH CONGRESS.
EXTRA SESSION.
SENATE

Washington, 2S.-The galleries
were crowded by sight-seers, anx-
ious to hear Mahone's speech After
reading the journal, Malone ex-
pressed regret at being again COM
PEELED to interrupt the deliberations
of the Senate. He had been pro-
Yoked, and if those who found
pleasure in varied and ungenerous
assaults did not justify him, he was
sure of the brave and independent
spirits here and of his own people.
He must believe the actions of these
senators compOrted with their ideas
of manly department and senatorial
dignity. Virginia was accustomed
to an independently gio-Saxon way
of asserting its rights. He would
repel any impeachment of the cen
stituents who sent him here with
clearly defined duties, which they
and he comprehend. Confident OF
his devotion ard loyalty to her
every interest, he was elected to do
her will, and not the will of caucus.
Virginia earned the title of "Old
Dominion" by a broad and indie
pendent action. Her SONS, without
the help of those who would now
interfere with her affairs, had
earned that title. AS to the init
nation, which he was 10th to be-
lieve, that he was influenced by i'm
pure motives in his action, he had
but a denial TO make. He regretted
and was amazed by the fact that
Johnston had joined in the assault,
introducing him, not as his col
league, but as a repudlator. He
must apologize for Johnston's crltl-
cism and perVersion, whatever
he and his cohorts may attempt,
by the cheap logic of an attorney to
demonstrate what ought to be. l
am, by my convictions, and my sense
of honor, what am. In this par
ticular l have largely the advantage
of my colleague, for if l take him
by his record, diminutive as it is, he
never knows what he is or what
duty he came here to perform.
Iaughter9 Malone then proceeded
to give an exhaustive review of the
political and financial history Of
Virginia for the last decade. Malone
proclaimed his allegiance to Vir-
ginia, and not to any party. He was
opposed to BouTbonism and radical
ism. The Virginia colored people
were a part of Gods great family,
and he stands by them until all
their rights are secured, until they
are given the same opportunity to
progress and push forward as the
whites. Calhoun's dream of the
southern empire was quenched in
blood, and the south accepts the de-
cision. He was here to renew the
allegiance of Virginia to the Union,
in all truth and sincerity, and would
do all in his power to aid Virginia
TO resume her place as legal state.
Malone concluded, and Harris
moved an executive session, which
was defeated by the republicans.
After Mahone's speech the roll
was called on several dilatory mo-
tons, but there was no action on the
pending resolution, or any further
debate, and at Ais the Senate adj
journed until tomorrow.

FOREIGN.

Athens, 2S.-The 9th of April is
the anniversary of the Greek indie
pendence. A grand review will be
held, when the King will present
colors to the regiments composing
the garrisons of Athens and a select
detachment from other regiments.
The meaning of this act and the
reasons for the choice of this occa-
sion are obvious. The ceremony
will be followed by orders for the
departure of the various corps for
their allotted stations on the from
tier.
Rome, 2S.-A lady obtained pri-
yate audience with the Pope, and
warned him that the day and hour
were fixed for the murder of himself
and Cardinal Beccie.
Berlin, 2S.-The PrusSian govern
ment is considering the question of
adopting the Scrutin de Liste system
of voting at elections for members of
the Diet.
Candahar, 2S.-A formidable re-
belliOn prevails at Herat. Ayoob
Khan is perhaps already exiled or
a prisoner. Mohammed Pashau
Khan, governor of Kushk, induced
three Herat regiments, stationed at
KuShk, to meeting and joi. him,
and the Aimak tribes, in an attack
on Herat. 1t may be safely inferred
that the murder of MOhammed Jan,
who commanded these three regi-
mentS, was the first act of the rebel
lion, instead OF the result of private
quarrels. AT last account the re-
bellion was so formidable that
Ayoob Khan was virtually besieged
in the citadel. This gives a favor
able opportunity to Abdurah Khan
to reunite the Ghamstan, under the
supremacy of Cabul. Five thousand
of his troops are now on the road
hither and should be in full posses
sion of the Candahar province by
the 18th of April. An immediate
advance on Herat, if Ayoob Khan
is not expelled or killed before then,
could, in the existing state of affairs
scarcely fail to be successful.

In BROOKLYN, on Sunday. they Or

inaugurste the Same oisss Of social
disorders and disturbances that are
keeping Europe in a constant ferment.
But they will miserably fail. America
is the home of political and social
liberty and freedom. There is too
much freedom here to please such
men as the Brooklyn anti rent
league is composed OF, as they will
find TO their SORROW when they
undertake to put their ideas into
practice. There is freedom for q
man to hire house as cheaply as
possible, and there lie freedom for q
Landlord to turn a non-paying tenant
out of his house. and admit a
paying one. This is the kind OF
freedom that the antirenters do not
like, but which they cannot enlarge
or diminish. And while America
contsins all this freedom. it has the
ability to enforce it upon and for all
persons and classes. Liberal as is
