The decision of Judge Nelson, of Brook
lyn, as to the right of admission of colored
pupil to white school, sustained the Board
of Education and the teacher who had re-
jected the applicant. The Judge puts his
decision on the ground that there is not a
discrimination against the colored pupil, but
in her favor. "a school," he says, "has
been provided where she can be taught and
where in the social fellowship Of her mates
she would have what youth always Graves
sympathy and encouragement"

President Arthur is said to be in guam
Diary over the Chinese bill, not because he
is uncertain as to the merits of the question,
but owing to his indisposition to approve
an originally Democratic measure His ad-
visers, it is reported, argue that the Pacific
coast is irrevocably Democratic anyhow.
and that it is not worth while for him TO an
tagonize the Republican sentiment of New
England in favor Of the Chinese for the sake
of pleasing the Pacific States. He is more
over said to he unwilling to embarrass the
new minister to China, who happens to be a
particular friend OF Gen. Grant, by approx
ing measure which would not tend TO
make him very welcome guest at the
Chinese court. Mr.. Arthur is not states

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow died at
Cambridge, Mass, on Friday afternoon of
last week, aged seventy-five years. His flu
neral took place at his home on Sunday,
and was attended by many most prominent
in literature art and science.
Conventional expressions of sorrow sound
hackneyed and inadequate when a career
like that of the poet Longfellow closes, and
the hand which has guided a pen always
tipped with sweetness and beauty rests for
ever from Its labor. Whilst the tongue, the
vehicle of thought, moves, whilst purity of
ideas and diction, and sweetness and eleva-
ton Of sentiment sway the human heart,
LSngfeliow's poems will breathe and live.
He was among the very few choice, refined
and powerful spirits who laid deep the ioun-
dalton of American literature and made il
honored and respected in every country on
the globe.

NOTES AND PERSONALS.


Entering one Of the galleries of the Senate
ON Friday last, your correspondent found
Senator A. p. German presiding with marked
ease and ability over the deliberations of
that body with every eye riveted upon him.
BY indomitable energy, talents properly gov
erned and directed, he was presiding over
the body of which but few years ago he
was an humble page What telling, Gle
waiting and invigorating example for every
young man who aspires to prominence
Young in years, with character unscorch-
ed and political horizon without cloud,
who can tell what further and more dis
tinguished honors u few years more may
lay as just tribute TO the integrity and
ability OF the distinguished Senator.
A Western member of Congress who
visited Europe last summer and fall, re-
marked to-day that from all the information
he was able TO obtain pending his visit,
there would probably be million of i'm
migrants arrive in this country this fall
The United States is probably the only
country on the globe that can receive and
comfortably provide for such host OF men,
women and children.
When the famous salary grab was pend
ing in Congress Grant, then President, took
ieverish interest in it, being anxious TO re.
celve the $4,000 per annum, which il al
lowed him for his second term As the
House Committee on Military Affairs still
has under consideration his bill for pen
sion, II is in order for him TO be in Washing
ton 10 give the matter his personal attention
There is evidently much uneasiness here
among certain business men, capitalists and
the friends of the canal as TO the status of
IN M in hn
OF Maryland and West Virginia. ANY pro-
longed disturbance with this class OF men
would seriously disturb the revenues of the
canal as well as interfere with the progress
of its contemplated enlargement and repairs,
TO say nothing of the distress TO the many
who are employed on this work The truth
is, there is no reason why there should be
any just cause of complaint among the
miners, and if let alone there would be
none. Their troubles are instigaled and
brought about by the manipulalions OF a
certain class of restless demagogues who
manage TO make their living ont of the
troubles and disasters of labor. These men
find their harvest In the conflict between
labor and capital, and there is no time when
they are so well dressed and fed as when
there Is disturbance in labor When the
working men are on strike, and are sullen
with sense Of their wrongs, and are made
to believe that their wives and children are
undergoing the most outrageous privations,
II is then that the chattering professional
champion Of the working man wakes warm
and grows eloquent. With what noble
courage he takes the monster capital by the
throat and shakes il in his heroic grasp un-
I'll its selfish teeth rattle in its throat. With
what seductive eloquence he persuades his
enthusiastic auditors TO make still further
contributions for his support that the war
may be kept up. This was but the course

SCIENCE rs PROGRESS.

To science, again, we owe the idea Of
progress. The ancients, said Bagehot,
"had no conception of progress; they
did not so much as reject the idea; they
did not even entertain it." It is not, !
think, now going too far to say that tho
true test Of civilization Of nation must
be measured BY IFS progress in science.
It is often said, however, that, great am
unexpected as the recent discoveries
have been, there are certain ultimate
problems which must ever remain nm
solved. For my port, would prefer
to abstain from laying down any such
limitations. When Park asked the Arabs
what became Of the sun ct night, and
whether the sun was always the same or
new each day, they replied that such :
question was childish and beyond the
reach Of human investigation. Even -
late as l842 90 high an authority =
Comte treated rs obviously impossible
and hopeless any attempt 10 determine
the chemical composition Of the heaven
II bodies. Doubtless there are ques-
ticns the solution of which We do not -
yet zee oar way even TO attempt; never-
theless the experience Of the past warns
us not 10 limit the possibilities d the
future. Sir John Lubbock before tAs
British association il
