and the proper means Of bringing about that
enlightenment is question for serious con-
sideration. Intelligence and virtue are the
foundation stones upon which rests Ameri-
can civilization. Cultivated minds, involv-
ing literary attainment and consequent de-
velopment of mental power is the high aim
of education. To accomplish this two
widely different schools have obtained.
One arouses the mind TO thought, the other
chains it to repetition. One is analytical,
the other mechanical One extols dies, the
other exalts principles. The decline and fall
of many nations Of antiquity give proof Of q
nominal education that will suppress rather
than promote power of thought. In all the
Oriental nations the repetition system pre-
walls and the eyes OF discovery are closed,
the hand Of invention has lost Its cunning,
the car Of progress stands still, the voice Of
fearless inquiry Is hushed into.painful silence.

| own experience, am constrained to say that
neither is TO be ignored; that neither is to be
used to the exclusion Of the other, and that
the ratio Of their use Is to be determined In
some measure by the individuality Of the

Even in the smaller affairs of every
day, luck seems to exercise no little
influence; sometimes whatever il
taken in hand prOspers, no matter
how many circumstances will com.

this will extend over a whole week

when the luck suddenly changes;
whatever is generally regarded as
the most certain success fails. and
everything else goes in it's wake.
This is an odd truth, but that it is

4 Black Fiend In Human Share.

We learu from Mr.. j. NJ. Whaley,
the particulars of u heinous crime
committed on his place, in Moss
township, this county, on Tuesday,
the 18Th inst. A negro girl, aged
about ten years, murdered q little
coloted child ten months old. It
is stated that she first whipped it
with u sock until it was unable to
cry, and rhen placing the infant
down on the ground, put \ quilting

upon the frame putting one foot on
either end and rocked hack wards
aud forwards until it's life vas ex.

the colored people on the place seem
to be debating among themselves
whether or not she il amenable 10
the law, on account Of her age. 1t
ia stated that she has murdered
two other children previous to this.
She seems to assign no cause for
her crime. other than she had the
child TO nurse, and wanted 1t ont Of
the way. The black demon should

abe is amenable to the law or not,

In the human skeleton, about the

The muscles are about 800 In

The heart is six inches in length

beats seventy times per minute (;

the blood in the body passes through
the heart in three minutes.
The lungs will contain about one
gallon of air, at their usual infa-
ton degree. We breathe, on an
average, 1,2OO times per hour; in
hale GOO gallons per day. The
aggregate surface of the air cells
of the lungs exceeds 10000 square
inches. an area very nearly equal to

directly or by the spinal marrow.
These nerves, together with their
branches and minute ramificatious,
probably exceed 10000, 900 in num-
Der, forming body guard out
numbering by far the greatest army
ever marshalled.
The akin is composed of three
layers, and varies from one fourth

estimated to be two thousand square

being about fourteen pounds to the
