1t is true, the land commissioner

Books Vi the Powers of Observation.
1t was lately remarked In these col.
umns that one of the dangers attend.
ant on education was that it might
lessen mems powers of observation.
There is no doubt, we a%pprehend, that
this possibility does exist. Bookish-
ness and absence of mind are no new
faults among students. Among the
more cultivated classes they have, in
deed, been for a considerable time In
process of diminution, and the last
half century more particularly has
cen O great change In this respect.
Physical science has reused stu.
dents, who in former ages would have
been abstract thinkers and nothing
more, to careful and steady observa.
ton of external things. Facilities of
travelling have acted as another stimu.
lus in the same direction; and the
love of nature has been q power over
sentimental minds, and has led them

their surroundings to more active in.

turtles ago; and, though even now
many of the msthematicians and phil
osophers who walk the streets of our
universities live largely in a mood of
abstract thought, we must be careful
of finding undue fault with this, for
the inward eye has some
claims not lightly to be de-
spised. But, with respect to
the mass Of the nation, the question
we have raised Is one that deserves q
good deal of attention. Popular edu.
cation Is still In the bookish stage;
and, without complaining what is inc
vitable, we may and ought to inquire
whether literary study does now In
the lower ranks promote that vice of
inobservance which it certainly pro
noted in the higher ranks a century
or two ago. Equally we have to in
quire whether the virtue which is the
converse of this error may be fostered:
whether and how the study of books
may be made to minister to powers of
direct observation, instead of being
adverse to them, and to assist in the
general business of life. From THE

HOME FOR THE FRlENDLEss.
A Modest Start Made for an Institu-
tion OF That Kind.

In connection with the relief work
nov being done in the city a modest
start has been made toward q homo
for the friendless, more especially
designed for children, who are in
need Of friends and homes. One man,
who recently lost his wife and whose
family has been struggling with
poverty, has this week given up the
task of keeping the children, and
caring for them, and has thrown three
OF them upon charities of others.
They had to be provided for in some
way at cnce, and it was deemed beat
not to send them to the county horss.
One lady was found who nee ded some
help herself, and arrangements were
made for her to take the
children, and to be paid IN part
for caring for them. Two other
children have sInce been added, and

such until more permanent homes can

enterprise will require funds, and If it
grown to any magnitude, considerable
will be needed, but the generous sup
port which different features of the
work have received, leads to the be.
lief that this too will be remembered
by contributions.
