An AUTOGRAPH FIEND,s DODGE.

IN AC1O6AIfH FIENIS JUDGE.
An autograph-hunter, finding his eff
forts to obtain signatures unayailing, hit
upon a notable plan. He wrote letter
to various eminent men setting forth
that he was ship-owner; that he was
about to launch fine vessel, and that
he proposed to confer upon it the name
of the person he had the honor to adj
dress, but before doing so he felt bound
to inquire if he had any objection. Every
one wrote to protest that he only felt
highly honored, and his signature at the
foot of the letter was forthwith trans.
ferred to the ingenious gentIeman's lit
tie book. Carlyle was one of the per-
sons thus victimized. The request came
to him late in life, and he was much
pleased at this evidence OF the far-reach-
ing influence of his works, and spoke
kindly to more than one of his visitors
of " this foolish ship-owner," who, it
turned out, was not quite so foolish as
he seemed

REFORM THE LAHGUAGn.

The idiosyncrasies of the English Ian
guage are no better illustrated than in
the following doggerel which is sailing
around the newspapers
Remember, though box in the plural makes boxes,
The plural of OK should be oxen, not oxes;
And remember, though fleece in the plural is
feeces,
The plural of goose is hot gooses nor geeses:
And remember, though house in the plural Ia
houses,
The plural of mouse should be mice, and not
mouses.
Mouse, it is true, in the plural is mice,
But the plural of house should be houses, not hice
And foot it is true, in the plural is feet,

MOONLIGHT, OR MORNING ?
By CELESTE N. A. wNsLow.

Feebly light creepeth in at the easement,
Doubtful if yet it shall inger or fee,
Clasping nights tendrils with dim INFRINGEMENT,
Waking dull, dreamy wonder in me;
Is it the moon, in the wide west delaying,
Sending faint, Pickering farewells ere straying,
Or, the first rays for new days adjoining?
All, drowsy night, ig it moonlight or morning ?
Into my heart shines brightness uncertain
Youths dreams are dim, and the skies overcast
Is it ghostly hand lifting times curtain,
Bringing pale.beams from the neon of my past
Or a fresh JOY bursting forth into sweetness,
Weakening wan life to new days completeness
Golden beams, chasing logt silver with scorning,
Tell me, o, Love, is it moonlight or morning
Softly light stealeth over my spirit,
Pressing the dusk of drear sorrow away;
LIS some rare earth-joy returning to cheer it,
Filling my soul with prayer for delay?
Or, far-glimmering CLEAN Of new glory,
Passing the light Of earth's moon-silvered story
Rays of remote bliss, in beautiful warning;
Say, watching soul, is it moonlight or morning?

DREAMS PIsODUCED BY OPIUM.

The Chinese, both at home and abroad,
are, it is well known, much addicted to
the use of this powerful narcotic for pro-
ducing sleep with dreams. The Indo-
English Government all but subsists by
this Infamous traffic, which they forced
on the Celestials. by the bayonet. But
among the millions of people who have
resorted to the use of this drug Thomas
De Quincy is the only writer who has
given the world description of the
sensations he experienced. He found
that time became annihilated, as did
also space; dead persons became alive
again, and intense heat was transformed
In g. moment into Arctic winter. Animals
are liable to have revelations In their
SAUNDERS, and after eating heavily they
are seen to start up in their sleep as if
undergoing the horrors of some terrible
nightmare. Music has been composed
during sleep, as Tartinia's "Devil's
Sonata" and the same may be said OF
poetry

A PITCAIRN ISLANDER,

The Islander is a very docile and
pleasant man, who submits to an inter-
view with a spirit of true Christian
resignation. He described the manners,
customs and enjoyments of the ninety
SIX persons inhabiting the islands.
From his account, their life discounts in
simplicity the soiourn Of the exiled
Duke in the forest of Arden. There is
no such thing as money In circulation on
the islands. AS an example, if one
islander has two shirts and another has
none, the one with two cheerfully gives
one shirt to the other. Then If the ran
who had two shirts wants any sweet po-
tatoes, vans, or fowl, he goes to the
place OF the other man and supplies his
want. The people wear English styles
OF clothing. They get garments of va
Ilous kinds from whaling ships and other
vessels touching at the island, and give
In exchange oranges, bananas, lines,
sweet potatoes, cocoanuts, pumpkins
and fowls. In exchange of this kind,
the sailors generally get the best of
the bargain. The islanders dwell in
houses made of boards, sawed from tim
Der grown on the island. All of the na-
tives profess the Christian religion. The
principal charm of life on that tropical
isle consists of singing hymns like those
which Moody and Sankey sing. On
Sundays there is service in the church
morning and evening, and Sunday
school in the morning. THERE'S prayer
meeting Tuesday evening, and Bible
class Thursday evening. There are
weekday schools where instruction in
English Is given.

those who denounced Mayor Grace, and
Comptroller Campbell, of New York City,
who practically proved their desire for re-
form by attempting to secure the city from
sharpers and thieves, and better men than
those who, while accusing the Republicans
of catering to corporations, grant TO the
Catholic Protectory of New York City $40
per year for the support of 1000 children
and then accept the funds of the whisky
league of our own and other States, and
whose most effective political speech is
"Come in boys and take drink" But we
fail to see the particular necessity for such a
civil service reform as that advocated by
Mr.. Powers, the plain English of which
is, 1--WE demand that all Republicans shall be
turned out of Office and their places be filled
with Democrats"
To say that the Democratic party can
claim the confidence of the people, on the
ground that it represents certain principles,
or certain policy, is absurd. 1t has no
principle, as is plainly evinced by the uncon-
ditional surrender, in nearly all the cities of
the country, of the better element of the
Democracy to the whisky and hummer ele-
ment which absolutely controls its actions
and makes its nominations, by its fusion with
the Greenback party, and in building its
platforms high enough for a Giraffe TO stand
upon, and low enough for worm to crawl
upon. Neither has it any policy worthy of
commendation, as is abundantly proven by
the fact that it has opposed every act look
ing to the welfare of the Republic, as it did
the Resumption Act" and in New York
City where it has had absolute control, what
has its policy been, what has it done i'll the
direction of economy, reform and progress?
It is true that the country demands certain
measures of reform, and both parties have
failed to fully meet this demand, and in

party has shown its desire for reform by
suffering the candidates of "bossism'' to be
defeated, and 10y assisting in such defeat.
The Republican party in Michigan and else
where has attempted to allow the people to
express at the ballot box, their approval or
disapproval of prohibitory amendments, but
the Democratic party has lodged this ques-
ton and cast its influence in favor of an I'M
restrained liquor traffic. The Democratic
party has completely surrendered to its
"bosses," and adopted as its watchword $50
expressive of its love of truth and principle)
anything to beat the Republicans" and to
gain the spoils.
We believe that by reorganization, in the
spirit of the recent elections, under the lead
ership, not of bosses who have betrayed the
interests or principles of the party, but I'M
der the leadership of men who have the best
interest of the country at heart, the Republi-
can party in 1884, will, as it has done in the
past, march forward to victory, as the agent
of the intelligence, the industry and the con-
science of the American people.

Practical Application of knowledge.

Pupils in our common schocls ars sadly deficie in the power of practical application. This must be evident to every teacher and parent who has ever tested the matter by asking practical questions. The pupil who, with tho book before him, can readily 'sget tho answers" to the difficult problems in profit and loss is wholly at loss to de- termine the profit his father receives on cloth bought for 20 cents and sold for 9 cents per yard. He learns in school that Columbus and Springfield gre in the same latitude, and is not sure at home that Columbus is not between Springfield and the North pole. He learns that every proper noun should commence with capital, and then di- rects his first love letter to miss ien1lie smith. lie can say with accuracy that there are 365 days, hours. 4S minutes, and 48 seconds in year, but has no id a of how many times the sun will rise ,.na set between two Christmases. He con give correctly the principal parts of See and go, and immediately after be guilty of saying, "I seen him, bat now he las; vent away"
 Is this fault, this studying to no pra,- tical purpose, due to our system of edn- cation? If 1t is, it is high time that OUT leaders in educational matters point out the fault and suggest the remedy. is 1t because teachers fail into mechanical, monotonous rlits of teachjng, and ger form their work in a manner so scbout- like and so little business like that 1t never occurs to the papil that what he learns from his books has any c.,nnec ton with CT application to the tilillgs that occur in everyday life? Here NC think IS the trouble, and in this we should reform. Let each teacher make his work more and moro practical let him strive to lift his pupils from their minimizing, impractical methods of study; let him give them matter for 1 thought upon tae simple, common things around them let him endeavor to create an interes,t in their mintI, upon 1 the subjects discussed by the older peo-,, pie of the community, and soon lve shall have Q race of children in our schools who will .row more at the age If F f what IS practical and useful than our c3ildren now know when they leave the common schools.
