SCHOOL AND CHURCH.

An exchange suggests the reading
OF the morning newspaper in the school
by teachers as an effective way of teach
ing current history. "A better way
still, says the New York EGanine'',
"would be for the teacher TO give the
pupils short talk on any topic of special
interest in the morning paper This de-
mands more knowledge than most teach
ers possess, tits true, but something may
be done in that line by any one who is fit
to teach at all, and its effectiveness is
very great. Few pupils, however dull,
fail TO catch and remember the points of
familiar talk of this kind. The prin-
eiple may be applied to other things than
history.h

Bad Manners In Parliament.

There was time when manners were
very bad in the English Parliament, but
this was when Parliament had not estab-
tablished its supremacy, and it is worth
remarking that manners improved from
the time when Parliament grew SUI
preme, and when it came to be recog-
nized that this supremacy could only be
m aintained if on many great questions
both parties acted in concert. Pepys,
writing on the 18th of December, 1865,
describes a queer scene which he wit
messed in the House OF Lords: "My
Lord Buckingham, leaning ludely over
my Lord Marquis Dorchester, my Lord
Dorchester removed his elbow. The
Duke asked whether he was uneasy.
Dorchester replied yes, and that the
Duke burst not do this if he were any
where else. Buckingham replied, yes,
he would, and that he were better man
than himself. Dorchester said that he
lied. With this Buckingham struck off
his hat, took him by his periwigg, and
pulled it aside and held him. There
is nothing so bad as this in the Parlia-
mentary annals of the Georgian era.
Chatham is said to have been more
lcdIeu tlldi any ORATOR OF HIS I1H1c. DuU
his invective was carefully measured
Speaking of Newcastle, then Prime
Minister, he once asked whether Parlia-
ment sat only to register the edicts of
one too-powerful subject. Hereupon
Newcastle is reported to have been
frightened almost out of his wits. But
this was fair fighting. There was no
imputation on Chatham part of ignoble
motives; he simply accused his adversary
of the splendid sin of ambition.
Our Parliamentary history abounds
with encounters OF this sort. in which
the thrusts delivered, whether in earnest
or in Jest, Were often heard, but ALWAYS
bestowed according to fair rules, and
with an absence of that implacabIe ami
mus which leaves combatants enemies
when the fight is over. Everybody
knows the story of Sir Robert Walpole
having dispute with Pultney about a
quotation from Horace. The Minister
bet guinea that his own version was
right a Horace was sent for, and Sir
Robert proving to be in the wrong,
threw down a guinea, which Pultrey
pocketed with the remark that it was
the only money ever paid by the Min
lister which member could accept
without shame. The words were not in
the best taste, perhaps; but how English
the whole thing was, and how sugo estive
of good-humored sparring with the
gloves on!-London Times

A Sad Story.

The London Pail MAI Gazette con-
tains the following; Here is story of
the poor of London, as unfolded before
the st. Pancras coroner yesterday. Mary
Baxter, woman of fifty, who had lived
with bootcloser in a single room in a
house in Little Clarendon Street several
years, was two years in arrear with her
rent Her landlord, Mr.. Coxhill, dis
trained her goods, Selling also the tools
of her companion, who was at work in
Stratford. She was left shivering in a
fireless room, with barely sufficient
clothes to cover her. and no furniture
but an old sack. The next dav the land
lord sent man TO remove the door and
window of the room. The act was
illegal; he had no warrant but what
could the woman dop The rain came in
and saturated her scanty clothing as she
lay weak and helpless on her sack The
night passed. In the morning, the last
day but one of the old year, a neighbor
came in. He found her almost insensible,
but she murmured Give me time,
supposing him to be her landlord. She
had lain two days and two nights in an
empty room, to which for the last TWEEN
ty-four hours the wind and rain had free
access, and although she was removed to
the workhouse she died in three DAYS.
Cases such as this are occurring all
round us, but how little we know of them,
and alas! is it not often true that though
we know little we care lessp"

Last fall and winter an immense
quantity of sauerkraut was imported
from Germany, and was pronounced
very superior. The Germans of Read,
ing, Pa, prepare it in way that many
consider far better than most other
methods. They cut the cabbage into
long, thin slices, removing the stringy
core, and do not apply salt, but ram ii
down so tightly in stout barrels that it is
covered by its own liquor. They then
head up the barrel, leaving hole in the
top so as to admit of fermentation. In
Germany the cabbage is rammed down
by machine propelled by steam. That
received in this country last year came
in tierces holding sixty gallons EACH.
