scholars. as any lawyer, who has just lost case, can tell you Some allowance ought to be made for them because they are confused and embarrassed in their studies by an unvarying difference of opinion between their instructors. If impartiality, learning and justice mark the judgments of any court, you will find that court has an able bar, and to the learning and ability of the bar is the country indebted for the honorable posi- t;oz its judiciary occupies today
 Law, like everything else is amenable to the law of evolution It must grow, expand and develop to meet the altered conditions of society. Judges and law yers. as class. are extremely conserva- tive They are slow to adopt new meth ods of procedure, O. change rules of de- cision. although 1t may be obvious that justice would thereby be promoted. It is probably well iha, this is %. h . country where changes Of opinion and policies are % frequent. it is well to have one conservative department For much of the uncertainty of the law judges are not justly censuTable. The law is not an exAef science, and neither legislafion nor judges can make il 90. Science is truth asceTtained-in law you can never feei certain you have reached that point The presumption that the judges knsv the law is probably the baldest sf all of the laws many hcfions- They CAB only give the public the results of their patient re- searches and best judgment.

Once sau one of those litile ones of God in a very poor farmhouse. She was strangely afflicted. Her head from the upper part of the forehead had enlarged to an enormous sire. It looked larger than mans. Her body was very thin, shrunken and frail; her mind was a wonder, source of surprise and mys- tery to all who saw her. Her large gray eyes were dark and penetrating. with such look in them no human eorld portray look fall of earnest. appealing love, Jcy and peace. When she fixed those wonderful orbs on anybody it was to read fhem as we read an open book. If her scrutiny was satisfactory, she would repay you with wonderful smile, but if the contrary, she would gaze on you but a moment, then her little bosom would heave. and heavy sigh would tell the tale that you were bad, sinful and good for nothing in her pure and diviu- ing eye. She could quote scripture from memory, and sing everything she ever heard. She was only five years old when saw her. and she talked better than some children of ten. 1 asked her mother if they had taugh, her religion and the mystery of those things, but her answer was, "she has taught us" "She kno~s more nor some preachers" Sad her mo,her with tears in her eyes. "Oh. my poor Nettie, she tells us ii will not be long until she will leave us. think she talks to angels in her sleep, and, oh. is so happy. God has blessed my darling child"
 "Yes," answered, "you ought not to grieve. Death has no darkness for her She has come here to bless you with her presence, and to call you to follow her Great Master that sen, her. Those children of the Lord have no evil to contend with: their life is one sweet morning incense arising from this pol luted world to consecrase many hearts to- the sacred power of religion, and bless all on whom their little life has shone."
 Not many mouths afterwards l heard that Nettie vas dead. Her parents hearts were almost broken, but her words and works, small as she was, will shine in many hearts until the day will come when Ne,tie, blessed little Nestie, will arise in the resurrection morn, free from all deform .ties, her spiri, given perfect body, like usse her dear Masters whom she loved SO well on earth.

Oxford is supposed to be the mos,
conservative seat of learning On the
globe, SAYS the New York Times.
Even DR.. Dix would probably admit
the improbablitv that so venerable an
institution would countenancc a dan
gerous innovation. The announce
ment, therefore, that Oxford las de-
cided to grant the san c examnatiC n
to women as to men is calculated es-
pecially to encourage and assist the
friends of the igher education of wo-
men. There is, we believe, no "fe-
male college" at Oxford, and the cx-
tension Of the examinations is an
acknowledgment Of the function of
the university as an examining and
certifying rather than directly teach.
ind body. In fact, this is one Of the
most important Of the functions of a
true university. 1t would be well if in
this country, the institutions, diplomas
of which are really Of value, should
extend their usefulness by certifying
the attainments of all persons who
chose to present themselves for exam
ination, without regard to the means
by which they had qualified themselves.
Something Ike this seems to have
been the idea Of the "University" Of
this State, an organism which has

Mr.. McCullough's Condition.


CHICAGO. October Notwithstanding
the favorable change in Mr.. McCullough's
condition he was quite violent two or three
times yesterday. He is, in fact, practically
prisoner in his room under the survell-
lance of Pinkerton' sdetectives who use every
available ruse TO amuse him and distract
him from his present determination to go
to Detroit which wonld have been the next
point in his tour and physical force is only
employed when it is absolutely necessary.
He was allowed to ride out and dine with
friend yesterday Opates have been adj
ministered from time to time, and last nlght
he was quiet, and his friends hope for good
results from his nights rest. Mr.. Conner IS
expected to arrive here, and it is anticipated
that he will persuade Mr.. Mccullough to
return with him 10 New York, or to some
place where he can have chance OF re-
covery and give mp his idea of going on
with his season. The actors friends kept
secret until last night what transplred IN
his room after he had been forcibly taken
to it. He became quiet after time and
sat down to a game of cards with one OF the
detectives. firing of this he wanted to
leave his room, and, persuasion failing, the
detective barred his way, when he ilew
into q rage, seized Il cane and felled the
officer TO the floor, scnscless, with cash
several inches long in his scalp. The others
of the watchers then rushed in and over
nnwared him.
