Fiiy John i'orier's Case.

Con. Grant, In an article IN tho De-
CNmber number OF the North American
review, entitled IAN Undosorod Stig-
ma," carefully reviews tho case OF Con,
Fitz John Porter, who IN 1862 was tried
by q court martial, on tho charge OF
disobeying. tho orlera Of Gon. Pope, at
u critical momont and being found
guilty aud tho finding being approved
by the president, was dismissed from
the army IN disgrace, This was twenty
years ago, aud during this whole period
Gen. Porter, with scarcely anybody to
sympa,hiZc with him, has been claiming
that the sentence OF the court martial
was grossly unjust and has struggled
most porsistcnily to have this alleged
injustice nghted. Tho general public
has until lately looked upon Gen. Por.
tor as subsiantiallya traitor to the Union
cause in an hour OF extreme peril, and
II he had been hung or shot at the time,
hardly anybody would have complained.
Even Gen, Grant himself, when he was
general Of the army and when ho was
president, declined, from mistaken opin.
ions, as ho now fully admits, to do
anything for his relief, The Schoileld
board of inquiry, appointed by Presi.
dent Hayes, TO investigate the whole
matter, came to the conclusion, in the
light OF MI the facts rs presented to
them, that the sentence against Gen.
Porter was unjust. Gen. Grant himself
having carefully studied the whole ques.
tion, has revised and corrected his own
al,e opinions and is now anxious to do
everything in his power to have this
wrong repaired. What he wants is that
Congress should pass bill providing
Tor Gen. Porter's restoration to the
army, with the rank which he held at
the time of his dismissal. We are Of
the opinion, so far as we are competent
to Judge OF the question at all, that
Gen. Grant is entirely correct in the
end he seeks TO accomplish and that the
government should loso no time in
making the proper amende to Gen.
Porter for the grievous wrong it un.
Willingly inflicted upon him and under
which lie has been suffering for the last
twenty years. The president has no
power to afford the relief until Congress
shall supply the requisite legislation.
Let Co gress, then, act and act at once.

The question OF the wisdom of abol'
ishing the recess, or short intermission,
which serves to break the monctony of
the morning and afternoon sessions Of
the public schools, is being discussed by
teachers and others, and in Rochester,
N. Y, the experiment is to be tried for
two weeks. In the place OF the usual
recess, five minutes is to be devoted in
the middle of the morning and afternoon
sessions to marching and calisthenic
exercises in the school.room. The
school superintendent has sent to the
teachers list of questions to be an
swered concerning the effect of the ex-
pertinent. Among other things, the
teachers are asked to report the effect
upon the health of the pupils, as shown
by headaches, listlessnes, and other
symptoms, and upon their lessons. In
formation is also requested as to whether
under the new plan there is time enough
for recitations. The attempt to get
through with certain amount Of reci-
tatiors ought not to be permitted to
interfere in the slightest degree with the
health of the pupils. If the experiment
is to be any sense test Of how much
the children can bear without breaking
down it had better be abandoned at the
start. The important question is not
how to make the pupils get through o
stated set Of lessons, but how to arrange
the lessons and recitations in such way
as not to impair their health by depriv.
ing them Of the fresh air and natural
exercise which are particularly needful
at their age. The question is one which
needs the most careful consideration,
and no false step should be made. :;

A Good Reason,

When was young man spent sew.
eral years in the South, residing for a
while at Port Gibson, on the Mississip-
pi river. A great deal Of litigation was
going on there about that time, and it
was not always an easy matter to obtain
jury. One day was summoned to
act in that capacity, and repaired to
court to get excused. On my name be-
ing called, / informed his honor the
Judge that was not a freeholder, and
therefore not qualified to serve. "I am
stopping for the time being at this
place." "You board at the hotel, / pre-
sume?" II take my meals there, but
have rooms at another part of the town,
where lodge" $50 you keep bache.
lors hall?' "Yes, sir" "How long
have you lived in that manner?' "About
six months" 81 think you are quail.
fed" gravely remarked the judge, " for
I have never known man to keep
bachelors hall the length of time you
name who had not dirt enough in his
room to make him a ireeholder. The
court does not excuse you."-Erchmge.

Costly Cradle.

"It's rice to be boy" in Burmah,
that is, if one happens to be a royal
baby. The infant whose royal papa
spends million dollars on cradle for
him is surely to be envied not little
by ordinary babes. At this enormous
cost King Theebaw provided a cradle
for his olive branch. This extraordina-
ry receptacle is described as first framed
with mango wood and then incased
with sheet gold inside and out. Over
this is ornamental gold work set with
diamonds, rubies, sapphires, emeralds,
and other precious stones. How sweet
the infantile slumbers must be, rocked
in the embrace of close upon a millions
worth of gold and precious stones; how
good King Theebaw is to lA little
child, and how happy his little child
must be when he reflects that although
no ones head is safe for an hour in Che
court OF Burmah, Theebaw does not
forget to see that the infant prince is
Graded comfortably as long as he lives.

Four hundred Harvard professors and
students formed cooperative society
nine months ago, and opened store,
where books, sporting articles, station.
cry, fuel, pictures and clothing were
either kept in stock or sold by sample.
The price OF everything was five per
cent. above wholesale cost, and mem.
bers could buy on no other terms than
cash down. They also paid 50 year.
The experiment has thus far been highly
satisfactory, and no reason for failure in
the future is apparent. There is no
capital at risk, the five per cent. and
yearly dues cover the expenses, and the
members, now increased to 636, get
their supplies at an average of twenty
per cent. less than they would have to
pay elsewhere. A novel branch Of the
business is the sale OF second hand
books and furniture, by which students
get pay for their discarded things, in
stead OF throwing them away.
