Bank Of England wonders.

A story teller, wishing to excite
astonishment by the eXaggeration Of
his statements, said that a famous
banking house transacted 50 large Il
business that in order to ccOnomiZe
they ordered their clerks not to cross
their Is nor dot their is, which re-
suited in the saving of ink alone in
one year of E5,OOO. Pre-postcrous
as this story seems, it is. almost
cqulled by some Of the items viii, h
show the magnitude Of some Of the
transactions OF Ihe Bank of England.
In the course Of five years that
famous institution has paid 77,7I5,-
900 notes, all over elOO, and some
reaching, of course, millions Of
pounds. These could fill l3, 400 box
es, which, if placed side by side,
would occupy two and One-third
miles. If placed in a pile these notes
would be five and two-thirds miles
high, and if joined end to end would
fora ribbon 2,445 miles long. At
the end Of every five years these
notes are thrown into furnace and
burned. 1t is a curious fact that so
firm Is the texture Of a Bank of En-
gland note that even burning can
hardly destroy it. The authorities
have in little glazed frame the re-
mnants Of a note which was in the
great fire Of Chicago, and, though
completely Charred and black, the
paper still holds together, and the
printing is sufficiently legible to es-
tablish its genuiness and. warrant its
being cashed. 1t is "a point Of honor
with this great institution to cash
every genuine note, no matter how
disfigured. Notes long under water
and reduced almost tOan indisting-
uishable pulp have been duly honor
ed. Even lost notes are sometimes
paid, and in one case c3O,O0O was
paid over to gentlman who testi-
fled That he had destroyed or unin-
tentionallY mislaid n note for that
amount. Many years after his death
the missing note turned up, and as
it called for immediate payment the
money was handed over and the
bank lost the amount.

u. S. CURRENCY PAPER.-The
paper on which United States cur
rency is printed is manufactured at
Dalton, Mass. Eighteen or twenty
treasury girls, who earn 50 day,
count the sheets, examining each
one closely and rejecting all imper-
feet ones. An automatic register at
the end of the machine registers ev-
cry sheet as it is cut off and laid
down. The register man takes them
away in even hundreds, and they
are Immediately counted in the dry
ing room. In all the various pro-
cesses of finishing every sheet IS
counted, and they are again counted
on their receipt at the treasury de-
partment in Washington. The great
protection of the government against
counterfeiting lies in the paper here
made. The distinctive feature Is
the introduction Of silk threads into
the body Of the paper while 1t Is in
the process of manufacture. They
are introduced while the paper is in
the pulp, and are carried along with
It 10 the end Of the machine, where
it Is delivered as actual paper. This
has been more fatal than anything
. else to the professional counter
fcitorS.

On the 3lst Of December a regi-
ment fought a long and bloody fight
In the dark cedlrs at Stone River.
AT lust it wIs shattered and broken.
A brigade Of victorious rebels charg-
cd over it, and seemed to leavcnOnc
Of it. But in minute the colonel
was seen rising from the ruin and
smoke, mounted on his horse rs he
went down. In another minute Il
man, wounded and bleeding, came
running toward him with torn and
disfigured flag, and lie placed him
self defiantly ut the colonels side.
Then came from a distance a little
man limping, then big man limp
Ing, and then gillOping like school
boys over the rocks these men clus-
tered about the colonel, and fired
vigorously into the rebel rear. The
colonel had Il stony stare in his eyes,
aud looked about him in bewilder-
cd way. Suddenly he shouted,
"FOrm in line, men, form in line"
Wonderingly the five men formed
in line, and the colonel ordered "Ad-
vance in line" and forward moved
the five men, the colonel directing
their movements rs though they
were full regiment. The rebels
opened fire on them, and the colonel
issued orders to the five as though
they were 800. Seeing that they
must be captured if they did not
change the line of march, one of the
boys said: "Old dad thinks we are
the regiment, be gad. Let's retreat
wild him." and, punching the old
horse up with the bayOnets, the
squad Of five ran their colonel off at
Il right oblique.
Soon they were joined by others
of the regiment until they number
ed fifteen men. When the colonel
again assumed command he ordered
the men to lie down and fire at the
approaching rebels, and they did,
and viciously, too. Then triumph
ant, the colonel reform his line and
ordered the men to form column,
wheeling by companies. The fifteen
men formed into four ranks and this
satisfied the com mandeT, and again
the little detachment moved for
ward. At last the squad came up to
the reserve, marching in order.
The men of the new line, kneeling
to receive the charge that soon came,
saw the colonel deliberately march
his men to the right and order his
regiment" into line to participate
in the new struggle, and when it
came, he issued still his orders as
though hehad thousand men.
At Last when he called in the
fierce fight, "Rally men, rally" and
the few came together close around
= him, he moved with them sadly and
deliberately to where Rosecranes was
missing the army, and reported his
regiment ready for another turn.
lie was shocked and bewildercd by
the loss of his regiment, but he new
er for a moment lost his fighting in
stinct. lie simply could not realize
thIt his men were gOne.-LRter

enough to give value to my advocacy.
| believe that French and German,
if properly taught, which l admit
they rarely are at present, would go
far to replace Latin and Greek from
a disciplinary point of view, while
the actual value of the acquisition
would, in the majority of cases, be
incomparably greater. In half the
time usually devoted, without sue
cess, to the classical languages most
boys could acquire really service
able knowledge of French and Ger
man. History, and the serious
study of English literature, now
shamofully neglected, would also
liud place in such scheme.
In closing, Lord Raylcigh referred
to the popular impression that
science tended to materialism, which
was strengthened by the writings of
men speaking in the name of
science. lie said: 'It is true that
among scientific men, as in other
classes. crude views are to be met
with as to the deeper things of
nature; but that the lifelong views
of Newton, of Faraday, and of
Maxwell, are inconsistent with the
scientific habit of mind is surely a
proposition which | need not pause
to refute." However, he did not
desire to have too much stress laid
upon the opinions of even such dis
tinguishcd workers rs those. lie
did not think that the scientific
worker had a claim, superior to that
of other educated men, to assume
the attitude of prophet. sin his
heart he knows" said he. "that
underneath the theories that he con.
structs there lie contradictions which
he cannot reconcile. The higher
mysteries of being, if penetrable al
all by human intellect, require Other
weapons than those of calculation
and experiment. Without encroach
ing upon grounds appertaining tC
the theologian and the philosopher
| thp domain Of natural science /,
surely broad enough to satisfy the
widest ambition of its devotee.

upon the selection of trees and the
method adopted. Mr.. Jaeger gives
interesting information regarding
the kola nut, showing it TO be q very
desirable article of cultivation here.
The United States Consul at Sierra
Leone sent about so pounds of these
nuts Ito Mr.. Hastings, of Ulupala-
kua, and the latter had given them
TO Mr.. Jaeger to plant. Among
other properties of the kola nut, it
is said to not only arrest the pro-
gress of intoxication after u person

appetite for strong drink.

same report also contains accounts
of similar steps in some private
schools in the Kingdom, Yet what
has hitherto been done can scarcely
bc considered more than an initial
move in the right direction. for too
much attention is still given to the
mechanical routine of mere textbook
instruction: il should be supple
mented by systematic advances on
the basis of careful plans. The bulk
of educational work in this country
has TO he done for the benefit Of
native Hawaiians, and next in i'm.
portancc to their instruction in the
use of the English language comes
their training in labor and in the
domestic arts and manufactures.
The rising generation here, rs in
other countries, are too prone to
despise labor of all kinds, and try
chiefly to fit themselves for some
position in which they will not be
obliged to work or to acquire any
great amount of skill. This tendency
should, as far as possible, be cor
rected by their education and the
way in which it is impaired; and if
Lord Reay's hints are expanded to
their logical conclusions, and fol-
lowed out Systematically and thor
oughly, it will greatly conducc to
bring about an improvement in this
matter.

PRACTICAL EDUCATION.

At the international Conference
on Education, recently held at the
Health Exhibition, in London, the
inaugural address was delivered by
Lord Rcay, President of the Con-
ference. lie discussed. what he
called, some of the burning qucs-
tions of the day in matters of edu-
cation. He said that the develop
ment of the powers of observation,
to satisfy an ever-eXpanding curio-
sity, is at the bottom of every sys-
TEN of rational education: that in
primary education this truth is more
and more recognized. and drawing,
as we'll rs elementary science and
manual work, are being put in their
proper places; that Belgium is mov-
ing vigorously in that direction,
following, with reference to manual
work, Sweden. where the School of
Domestic Industry might well claim
attention: that two French Min
listers of Education, NJ. BardouX
and NJ. Ferry, have given their ver-
dict in favor of the extreme import
ance of drawings that Sweden has
also contributed to gymnastics that
efficiency of training which is so i'm
portant in school hygienics; and
that the monopoly of the three RS
reading, writing, and arithmetic
is doomed, and the enthronement of
the three D's--drawing, drill, and
adroitness-approaching. In plead
ing for the substitution of rational
for mechanical methods, Lord Reay
said he simply desired to rouse
those inquisitive tendencies, which
in many cases are now deadened, to
make the primary school, not the
early grave of individuality, but an
attractive spot, where the produc-
tive use of leisure, as well rs of the
hours devoted to work, coupled with
the surroundings Of fruits and
flowers, should give pleasure to the
boys and girls who frequent it; and,
in order thereto, he would make
agricultural education general and
no longer luxury.
The foregoing points in Lord
Reay's address seem to us to merit
the careful consideration, not only
of our Board of Education, but of
the teaching fraternity generally OH
these islands. From the Boards last
biennial report to the Legislature it
appears that preliminary steps have
already been taken in the same
direction, under the Boards admin
istration, at Lahainaluna Seminary
and the Reformatory School, The
