EUROPE A THOUSAND YEARS
AGO,

In the year 800 after Christ, what
was the state of Europe? The
Goths, the Vandals, the Franks, the
Huns, the Normans, the Turks, and
other barbarian hordse, had invaded
and overthrown the Roman Empire,
and had established various king
doms upon its ruins. These hordes
of savages had destroyed, not only all
the works of civilization, but civili-
zation itself. Ignorant as they were
of everything that distinguishes and
elevates human nature, they broke
up the schools, ruined the monu-
ments, abolished art, and manufac-
lures, prevented commerce, and re-
duced the conquered nations to their
own conditions, inaugurating in the
completest manner the reign of brute
force and mental darkness. If they
afterward espoused Christianity, they
nodded it to their own savage super
stition, till at last naught was left of
the divine dispensation but its name,
to cover the most degrading idola-
try and demonism.
There was no science worthy of
the name, no schools whatever.
Reading, writing and ciphering, were
separate and distinct trades. The
masses, the nobility, the poor and
the rich, were wholly unacquainted
with the mysteries of the alphabet
and the pen. A few men, known as
clerks, who generally belonged to
the priesthood, monopolized them
as special class of artists.
They taught their business only to
their seminarists, apprentices and
beyond themselves and their few pu-
pills no one knew how to read and
write, nor was it expected of the
generality, any more than it would
be shoemaker or a lawyer. Kings
did not even know how to sign their
names, SO that when they wanted to
subscribe to written contract, law,
or treaty, which some clerk had
drawn up for them, they would smear
their right hand with ink and slap it
down on the parchment saying,
"Witness my hand" At latter
date, some genius devised the SUBJ
stltute of the seal, which was i'm
pressed instead of the hand, but Oft
ener besides the hand. Every gen
tleman had a seal with peculiar de-
vice thereon. Hence the sacrament
al words now in use, "Witness my
hand and seal, - affixed to modern
deeds, serve at least the purpose of
reminding us of the ignorance of the
middle ages. Popular Science Month";

OBLIGING A PREACHER.

highway to reach Tunnel Hill, |
