not attempt even a synopsis of his
speech, but two points which ne
made, are deserving Of more than
q passing notice. The first was
his touching and feeling illusions
to the former history Of this neigh
borhood, in an educational point
of view, under the guidance Of that
revered and honored preacher and
educator Of youth, the Rev. J. Le-
land Kennedy. He needed no
marble monument to commemorate
his memory, because it was i'm
pressed upon the hearts Of an ap-
preciative people, never to he OBJ
! liberated. The next leading point
was, that however extensive the
requirements Of the student in the
curriculum Of his or her literary
studies it might be, and probably
would be forgotten, in the whirl Of
business life, but the moral i'm
pressions which were made upon
the plastic beauty Of childhood
and youth, in the school room, and
around the parental tireside. would
live and freshen, and grow in af-
ter-life, to gladden. the world with
its rich and glorious purity.
But the crowning effort of the
occasion was the admirable speech
Of the Rev. II. McLees. If it were
possible to reproduce it, it is wor-
thy Of a permanent record in the
educational archives Of the coun-
try. We will not undertake even a
skeleton Of the address, but there
were two ideas brought out, which
in the present educational exigen-
cies Of the country are Of two much
Importance to be omitted. One
was compulsory education, and
the other was the ultilitarian idea
to pervade all our educational in
stitutions. from the very door Of
the common school up to the por-
tails of the highest institutions Of
learning in the county. He cited
the Cornell University of New
York as his model, with perhaps
but one other institution Of the
kind in the United States. " re
the student is required along with
his literary acquirments, to prose
cute some handicraft, under the
tutiiage of skilled experts, it may
be in the department Of mechan-
les, agriculture, or manufacture
ing, or any of the industrial pur-
suits Of the country, SO that when
a student left the corridors of Cor
neil University as a graduate, he
had the highest endorsement that
he was capable Of adding to the
productive wealth Of the country
in some Of those departments. He
thought the profession were al

SUNDAY, P r p, 1884.

THE Geographic dispatches convey the
informationths3 a remarkable murder club,
consisting Of ffty-nine persons, has just
been unearthed by the Sieilian police.
The members Of the club were pledged to
commit murder for common advantage
and profit, and undertook to execute
private vengence for hire. \ branch Of
the original club killed over thirty persons
inside of a few months. This is probably
as startling a piece ofiuformation as has
lately been made public, The moral deg
radiation Of men who will band themselves
together to murder innocent people for the
mere sake of gain reveals u depth of de
pravity that would scarcely be credited i'll
the pages of Il novel. That there should
be a demand for such an organization in
this enlightened nineteenth century is a
terrible commentary ON the intellectual
and moral advancement of the age, which
so many have claimed go hand in hand.
That this terrible organization has been
brought to bay, and its members viii pm
badly meet with the punishment they 50
richly deserve is gratifying intelligence,
and it is certainly to be hoped that the
law will be promptly and rigidly enforced
toward them.

The strange old streets of Bruges town
Lay white with dust and summer sun,
The tinkling goat bells slowly passed
At milking-time ere day was done.
An ancient weaver at his loom,
With trembling hands his shuttle piled,
While roses grew beneath his touch
And lovely hues were multiplied.
The slant sun, through the open door,
Fell bright, aud Redeemed warp and wooE
When with a cry Of pain a little bird,
A nesting stork, from off the roof,
Sore wounded, nuttercd in and sat
Upon the old mans outstretched hand.
Dear Lord, " he murnIured, under breath,
Hast thou sent me this little friendf'
And to his lonely heart he pressed
The little one, and vowed no harm
Should reach it there. So, day by day,
Caressed and sheltered by his arm,
The young stork grew apace, and from
The looms high beams looked down with
eyes @
OF silent love upon his ancient friend,
As two lone ones might sympathize,
At last the loom was hushed; no more
The deity handled shuttle flew;
No more the westering sunlight fell
Where blushing silken roses grew.
As through the streets of Bruges town
By strange hands cared for, to his last
And lonely rest, meath darkening skies,
The ancient weaver slowly passed;
Then strange sights met the gaze of all;
A great white stork, with wing-bsuts slow,
Too sad to leave the friend he loved,
With dropping head, flew circlinS low,
And ere the trampling feet Ind left
The new-made mound, dropt slowly down,
And clasped the grave in its white wings
His pure breast on the earth 80 brown. =
Nor food, nor drink, could lure him thence,
Sunrise nor fading sunset red;
When little children came to see,
The great white stork-wasd dead.
