Wednesday Morning, Feb. l, 1882.


 A decision has been made by the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania which defines the po- sition of professor in an institution of learn ing of which the trustees are body cor porate with power to institute chairs of in struction and to elect and remove teachers The court declares that professor in such an institution is not an officer but mere employe, and this too if the charter gives the faculty power to confer degrees.
 The trustees of the University of Lewis burg removed a professor of mathematics and natural philosophy, who had discharged the duties of the professorship for twenty seven years. He brought suit for reinstate- ment, alleging that his successor had usurped the position. The new professor answered that the corporation had elected him in due form, and that if the aggrieved instructor should be restored to his place he would be at once removed. Before the jury it appear ed that the trustees by the act establishing the university were invested with power to appoint professors and to remove them flor misconduct, breaches of the peace, or other sufficient causes" It was shown that charges had been brought against the relator, and that after some time had elapsed and consid erable correspondence between the accused professor and the corporation had taken place, the trustees passed resolution to the effect that they disclained any imputatlon upon the moral or intellectual character of the accused, but asking for his resignation. He refused to resign, and insisted upon his right to be present when the board took fur ther action The trustees would not grant what he demanded, but proceeded to remove him for the causes set forth in the charges preferred. The judge instructed the jury to find for the plaintiff, but an appeal resulted in the success of the new professor.
 In the opinion the judge set forth the large discretion of the trustees and declared that establishing professorship was not making it permanent. It does not endow it with fixed term of life. It does not give the in- cumbent tenure either for life or good be- havior. The judge quoted decision which accorded with the principles he was enuncia- ting. county contended that professor should pay tax of two per cent. on his salary as holder of an office. The instructor claimed that he was not properly an officer of the corporation but only an employe, and that he was liable to tax of one per cent, the amount fixed for professions and occu- pations. The court held that the professor was right, and that he must be taxed only "as for an occupation or employment" Judg- ment in the Lewisburg case, as indicated was reversed and the quo 4cl7Td7ltO quashed.
 This decision will interest large number of instructors in colleges incorporated like Lewisburg University. It will not, however, add to their dignity or increase their eficien-

Senator Platt of this State is reported as saying that the Sherman funding bill has no chance of passage, and that ''he is surprised that Sherman does not realize the fact" Senator Sherman is reported as saying: Ut makes very little difference what becomes of the bill so long I get the Democrats on record either for or against it. This I propose to do. If they propose to defeat it I shall insist on their doing it like men, and not by tacking amendments on it. But just see what they are doing. They are setting themselves up as opposed to the greatest experiment in three per cent. bonds, and if they carry the Vest amendment they put themselves on re- cord against the National banks I shall call their attention to the Metropolitan National bank of New York, of which George I. Se- ney, a prominent Democrat, is president. That bank has no circulation whatever, though 1t does an immense business, hence it has no money invested in bonds. Now ac- cording to the Democratic theory laid down by Mr. Vests amendment, that bank must take million dollars of it's capital and invest in government bonds-take that money out of the hands of the people and lock 1t up where no one can have the benefit of it. If the Democrats propose to go on record against the National banks, let them do it now"

What imagination can do is illustrated in the case of the father of boy who died in Philadelphia recently of hydrophobia In one of the boy's struggles bit of froth from his lips flew into his fathers eye. The man had nervous temperament, and he imagined that he had become inoculated with the dis ease. He felt the symptoms, gave the pecu- liar coughs resembling barks, and writhed in agony. A physician assured him that hydro- phobia could not possibly have developed in few hours, nor from such cause, but that made no difference. Powerful doses of chlo- ral were required to quiet him, and he was left almost lifeless by the violence of the at tack.

MT Henry F. Knapp and his associates have plan for creating 8 permanent, deep,
 wide and straight channel through the Sandy Hook bar of the port of New York for the purpose of forming an improved commercial outlet" bill which has been introduced in Congress provides for such channel over that part of Sandy Hook bar lying between what is known as the "swash channel" and the "fourteen-feet channel" It is required that the work shall begin within one year of the passage of the bill and be continued until a channel is completed having depth of 31 feet inches and width of 800 feet. For this work it is provided that the United States shall pay Knapp $5, 5,5oo,OO when the greatest required depth and width shall have been obtained and certified to by the army engineers. Knapp is to agree shat it shall be a self-sustaining channel of the aboVe-nanled capacity from the deep water of the ocean to the deep water of the bay forever. When depth of 27 feet inches and 6 width of 200 feet shall have been obtained the first install ment of $500, 900 is to be paid, and for every additional six inches of depth and 100 feet of width there is to be paid sn equal installment Fifteen per cent of the amount authorized to be expended is to be retained by the United States for one year after the full completion of the work as surety for it's faithful execution. Section 5 provides that the contractors are not to resort to the method of shutting of the flow of water through any of the several channels over the bar by dams or jetties, and are not to impede or contract the natural flow of water through them for the purpose of causing an increased flow through any one particular channel in order to gain tempo rary SCOUT therein. The work is to be done under the inspection of the War department, and it may be stopped at any time when it appears that the provisions of the bill are not being carried out in the opinion of the officers of the department.

After the funeral of the late Louis
Blanc, in Paris. an address by Victor
Hugo, was read at the grave, In which
was the following:
Consolation for the death
of Louis Blanc must be
sought in the belief of bis Immortality,
for the law Of heaven willed that such
men should remain. If light had
spent itself. the source of that light
was not quenched. Louis Blanc had
fulfilled the double mission of serving
and loving the people before history
and God"
So much for the belief of a
man whose influence and thoughts
will be handed down to the future !;
influence and thoughts of man whose
life is far spent in trying to build up,
rather than in trying continually to
tear down a fabric, and leave its occu-
pants out in the dreary cold, without
hope. The world is better for the life
of Victor Hugo, but is it for the life
OF Ingersoll?
