The Best Gymnasium for Girls.

The exercise that is best adapted to de-
velop all parts of the body in natural,
healthy manner is domestic labor 1t is
always at hand; it can be taken regularly
every day, and there is such variety that
almost every muscle can be exercised.
IIousework should never be considered
mental or degrading; it is natures laeor-
atory, in which the girl may obtain not
emily the best physical development, but
most valuable knowledge that will fit her
for the practical duties of life. This
training may be supplemented by other
kinds of exercise, such as walking and
outdoor sports. The very general intro
duction of foreign help into domestic
service has proved most unfortunate for
the health of American women. Closely
connected with this neglect of physical
training at home is an evil of great mag
nitude-that is, supreme devotion to brain
work. The practice, pursued very gener-
ally at the present day, OF combining girls
Years consecuti,ely, is attended with the
most serious evils. In the language OF a
popular writer, it is educating our girls
to death" While We would not discard
education in all its various departments,
extending to the highest culture, we
maintain that it is no advantage or bless
ing if it is to be obtained at the expense
of the physical system. There are other
parts OF the body besides the brain that
need faithful training. The highest ac-
complishments and mental acquisitions
will not compensate for impaired consti-
tutions and poor health.

Liabilities of Employers.

The Scientific american says:-In IN
action against an employer for the death
by injury of workman, it appeared that
the death was caused by the slipping oi
plank ON which deceased was at work,
and which had negigently been placed
on some guard rails. The employer was
not present at the time, but had left the
work in charge of a competent foreman.
The work was the building of an iron
bridge. The work was in its nature peril
GUS, but the peril was obvious. Ample
materials were at hand to secure safety,
but the precautions for safety were ne
elected through the fault of deceased
and his fellow laborers. Held, that de-
PENDANT was not liable for the death. 'Hhe
servant engaging in hazardous employ
ment assumes it's risks, but does not those
of the negligence or malfeasance of the
master. The master must use diligence,
having respect to the nature Of the SCI
vice, to provide the proper matesials, ap-
pliances and instrumentalities for due dill
igence and care in the selection and en-
ployment of competent and careful fellow
servants for the particular work or SER
vice to be performed.

A MINERS CONVENTION.

A Convention of miners will be held at
Nevada City on the 22d instant, for the
purpose of discussing the dam question.
1t is already seen that il the various mines
go to work independently and build dams
for the retention of the tailings, great con-
fusion and cross purposes will result They
would then suffer from all the embarrass-
ments which want of system has entailed
upon irrigation and reclamation works in
the lower country. Obviously their wisest,
and in fact their only wise course, will be
to systematize the business, and thus make
every dam part of one general plan en-
bracing the entire mining area. They will
probably find it best to employ some en-.
gineer of general reputation to frame the
scheme, and the details can then be car
ried out by the engineers Of the several
mines, acting under his instructions. Any
other arrangement would certainly result
in the creation of formidable difficulties,
while the consequence of independent
plans would also be the waste of money
and the failure to produce the best effects.
The Convention has very serious subject
before it, but we have no doubt that it
will be determined intelligently.

A WILD pRorEcr1oaIsr.

A venal sheet published at San Fran
cisco, which is known to be always in the
market, and whose editorial columns are
at the disposal of any thieving adventurer
who is willing to pay for their use, is just
now engaged in an utterly uncongenial
business. 1t has undertaken the role of
defender of Protection, no doubt because
it has fellow feeling with the plundering
system referred to. To perform this role
successfully, however. would require some
knowledge of the subject, and that the
sheet mentioned does not possess. In fact
it never approaches the issue without
exposing its ignorance, and yesterday it
perpetrated some quite phenomenal blum
ders. Thus it asserted that the RECORD
UNION favors tariff reform because the
Central and Southern Pacific Railroads are
extensive purchasers of steel rails. Now
any writer at all familiar with the facts
would have seen that since the duty on
steel rails is ultimately paid by the public
who use the railroads, and not by the rail-
road companies, it is matter Of practical
indifference to the latter how high those
duties are. The venal sheet referred to in
another article makes the ridiculous
assertion that the maintenance of the tariff
was necessary to the resumption Of specie
payments that without it the balance
"of trade IAN obsolete delusion)
would have gone the other way" and
here is the richest piece of nonsense
England instead of America would now
be the most prosperous and progressive
manufacturing country in the world.
1t would be interesting to know when
England ceased TO be the most pros.
porous and progressive manufacturing
country in the world" 1t would be
still more interesting to know when Amer.
lea supplanted her great rival. The fact
is, as of course every educated person
knows, that under the tariff American
manufactures have made extremely slow
progress, and that they have not go much
as begun to compete anywhere with those
of England. But the venal and stupid
sheet from which we have quoted does not
know enough about the subject to avoid
the most preposterous plumbers. In fact,
according to its own confession, it advo-
Gates Protection because it supposes it to
be &c an established Republican principle"
in some vague way, and not because it has
any intelligent conception of its operations.

A GALLANT DEED,

The act Of the sailor on board one of the
ironclads off Alexandria, who picked up a
burning shell and extinguished the fire by
plunging it into bucket of water, was IN
questionably one of great bravery, fer there
are few more discomposing and generally
uncertain objects to handle, or indeed to
remain in the neighborhood of, than g
live shell, and a man who has the nerve to
take one up, without in the least knowing
how much longer the fuse has to burn,
must be capable of any feat of cool gal
lantry. The only description Of a similar
incident that occurs to us is in a work
OF fiction Captain MarrYatt's novel Of
- The Kings Own" He makes his hero,
then little boy, walk up to live shell
during an engagement at sea, and roll it
overheard. A child, however, might do a
thing ike this without comprehending the
danger he was mourning, whereas the
sailor on the ironclad was of course fully
aware that he was very literally taking
his life in his hands when ne lifted the
Kissing shell. Decidedly this was a
consummate proof of very high kind OF
courage indeed.

NEW IDEAS ON THE RELIGION OF INDIA

A contemporary solemnly observes, ap-
ropos of the Egyptian situation, that
Arab will conduct his war on relig-
ious basis, and if England should under
take to do her fighting with East Indian
troops there will be danger of wholesale
assertions, for Mohammedans, Brahmins,
Buddhists and Bedouins hare much in
I" common in the aoay Of religious sentiment. "
Our contemporary seems to think that the
term Bedouin indicates peculiar form of
religion. but we will let that pass. The
idea that Mohammedans, Buddhists and
Brahmins have "much in common in the
way of religious sentiment, would GER
tainly be news to the people who hold
those faiths. There is about as much " in
common between them as there is be-
tween the followers ,of Confucius and
Christians, as matter of fact. The Budd-
hists and Brahmins would no more fuse with
the Mohammedans, or the latter with them,
than fire and water would fuse. And
there would be no danger of desertion il
the East Indian troops were all Moham.
medans, like the Bedouins, for there are as
many sects in Islam as there are in
Christianity, and these sects hate one an.
other with truly Christian cordiality. II
Indian troops are taken to Egypt it can be
predicted with perfect safety that there
will be no desertion from them, but that
they will fight the Egyptians gallantly, and
will remain thoroughly loyal to the British
Government.
