AMONG the most candid political news papers the Louisville Cnurier-Journal stands without a rival. Its criticism of the Garfeld-Chase letter is not only far but nlagnanimous. It says: "Fhere is nothing in the Garfield Chase letter of the Eth of July, 1863, discreditable to the writer or treacherous tO General Rosecrans. The use sought to be made ot II by The Stalwarts IS characteristics Of their temper and methods. Democrats should hold aloof from the controversy. The name and fame of Garfield as a states. man, patriot, and man of honor are safe m tine hands Of friends, who are able to defend his reputation effectively, late and early. The career of General Rose crans IS his own affair. and, because he happens to be a Democratic Con yress- man, gives him DO claim upon the parfv beyond what he nlay earn in civil and political capacity. The truth of history will recorl that he whipped Bragg at Stone River and failed t. reap the frnits
 
 If his victory, and that at Chickamauga Bragg whipped him and did the same thing. Who was 10 blame Tn either case involves good deal Of revelation, which nas yet to be written. But that Gar fields letter to Chase, which was straightforward and intelligent, was a breach of trust, can only be shown on the hypothesis that a Chief of Staff IS l sH minimizing slave and bound to obey I and serve his master with the docility of 1 K dog. This Garfield was not. and the | effort of the Conkling crowd to have | him appear so Is as stupid as 1t IS malignant and mean. It will in the end sssuredly recoil upon its authors.

THERE can bel no question that the general results of public education would be far greater were those en- trusted with the direction of such mat ters, to adopt the principle that they would first select the most competent teachers available, and then assign them salaries sufficient to content them and make them regard teaching as their permanent occupation, and that the last measure taken in the interest of economy should be the decrease of the teachers salary below a proper point.

TEACHING HISTORY

There Is no patent method" for teach ing history. In this study. more than in most other elementary school branches, the teacher, by bis skill, tact, and stores of information, must clothe the skeleton of facts with the flesh of imagination, and breathe into 1t the breath of life. But, rightly pursued, it has the two characteristics of useful study-uame- ly, good mental exercise and useful in. fOrmation.-John Swett.

CLAM.

There is something 80 relentless in the pressure of our public school system, especially in its higher grades; there is in it so little possibility of adaptation to the needs and weaknesses of individual pupils; and the spur which it constantly applies to the more sensitive and finely constituted minds is SO excessive, that great and often irreparable injury is the result. Responsibility for rhe existence of this state Of things IS divided. It lies in part with the system. which is too exacting and inHeuble; in part with fail to heed sigiiSi q weakness; and in part with parents who, filled with a fo' fish pride to have their children make a good showing in the marks of the term, and the examinations and exhibi- tiOns, stimulate their ambition at the hazard of their health. But wherever the responsibility and whatever the remedy, the evil is a great, and if our observation does not mislead us, a grow ing one.-Boston Journal.

burg. The tone of these reports is on
the whole encouraging. The wheat
crop of this section was perhaps never
more promising. One or two reports
from Ohio tell Of little damage by
the rains, but only one report is abso-
lutely unfavorable, while majority Of
them rate the wheat crop at far above
the average. There is a noticeable
unanimity with regard to the corn
crop, which has everywhere been
much thrown back by the late
rains, and in some sections of
Ohio part of the acreage intended
for planting is still implanted. In
most cases, however, the adverse out
look will pass away with good weather
From Virginia fair reports are above
the average. The reports on oats
range from very poor to very good,
with the general result Of little be
low the average, the prospect at pres

provement with good weather. The
prospects Of the hay crop are com
monty reported to be immense, and
with one or two exceptions potatoes are
doing remarkably well. The fruit

versity, but the general indications are
that there will be a rather light crop

Small fruits and vegetables are both

crops are liable to be vastly improved
by good weather or seriously damaged
by bad.
The trade reports from the town:
below show dull trade in the strictly
agricultural towns, which is due to
the fact that the farmers are busy and
at the same time are waiting to regu-
late their expenditures by the outcome
of their crops. The towns dependent
on the iron, coal and petroleum in,
dustries report trade dull, for obvious
reasons.
