CURRENT COMMENT.

1t is learned from good authority that the
new evening paper to be started by Z. j. c.
Atterbury and others will materialize within
thirty days. Also that the Tribune will ex-
tend to the new paper the same facilities
with which the Journal favOrS its prOtege
the Sunday Mercury with-that is, the type
and press work, while the carrier service
will be furnished by an outside firm. The
venture is said to be backed by $50. 600 hard
cash, which will be judiciously expended
in filling ''lOng felt want" which is sup
posed to exist.

''The city may be congratulated upon

remarked city official yesterday. "Yet
the pyrotechnic demonstrations were more
moderate than they were year ago. On

ton on the splendid progress made in this
department with the limited means at COM
mand. The pledges given and the hopes
expressed by us in our report of last year
have been more than fulfilled and realized,
the attendance of those taking the study
having increased from 500 to !, 100, or about
S5 per cent. since that time.
The appointment of superintendent of
German in the person OF Mr.. George Rink
has proved wise and beneficial measure,
and it may not be out of place to cOngratu-
late the Board upon the acquisition of the
services of one so prominently capable
and progressive as the present incumbent
has shown himself to be.
The corps of teachers under him has also
been vastly improved in point of fitness,
ability and general superiority. This, no
doubt, is largely owing to the rule requir-
ing certain standard of excellence, thus
obtaining the best services by competitive
examination.
We deem it our duty to impress upon you
the necessity of providing additional means
to obtain still better and greater results by
beginning this study with pupils of the
fourth grade. instead as now, of the fifth.
This can be done without any outlay for
books on the part of the pupils,
the instruction in this primary Ger
man grade being oral, and at once COM
mencing with conversational exercises.
This will practically do away with any I'M
due advantage possessed by German-Amer-
lean over AnglO-American pupils, and will
bring them on a par when the first books
are required to be used in the succeeding
grade. We recommend, and request, in
furtherance of these views, carefully con-
sidered, that German be taught in all of the
schools commencing with the fourth grade.
Being satisfied that the change will not be
detrimental to any of the other studies
taught, and self-eyldently beneficial to the
study of German, we would ask and recon-
mend that a period not exceeding thirty
minutes per day be allowed for this study
to each class taught.
In order to still better unity the system
of instruction throughout our schools, we
recommend that the instructor and instruc-
ton OF German in and for the High School
be placed under our superintendency and
care.
For all Of these recommendations we are
glad to say we have the approval of Super
lntendent Wright; and in the last recon-
mendatiOn, Mr.. Charles B. Gilbert, the
principal of the High School also concurs.
We submit the appointment of the fol-
lowing list of teachers of German, together
with a schedule of their salaries for the
school year of 1856, and respectfully ask
your confirmation of the same, viz:

Neuralgia Head ache of Women.

From the London Lancet.
The increased, and apparently in
creasing, frequency of neuralgia head
ache among women must needs have a
cause. There is one of singular SIM
plicity and quite obvious which has
been overlooked, to which it is worth
while to draw attention. The pain ex-
perienced is generally located in one or
more of the branches of the second
cervical nerve, very commonly those
terminatingin the scalp at thebcciput.
As matter OF fact, the nerves of the
scalp are irrltated by the hair being
drawn tightly back and put on the
strain, not as q whole, in which case
the strain would be spread over the
large area of the surface, but by small
bundles Of hair which are pulled back
and held in place by hairpins. Relief
is of ten consciously experienced as q
result OF removing the hairpins, but
this has only a temporary and partial
effect. The injury done is lasting, if
not permanent in it's consequences.
The present style OF dressing the hair
should be discontinued, as it probably,
in part at least, accounts for the ex-
IRENE prevalence Of form of suffering
which is both intractable and dis:
tressing.

O'verfeedinE.


Oyerfeeding IS the most commo on and
most iniurio GUS mistake made ii the
management Of all kinds Of stock. We
even oyerfeed, and SO greatly harm,
ourselves and our children. "A large
proportion Of The exceedingly numer-
Gus deaths among infants and young
children Is due to overfeeding, and e
we cram our children to death it is no
wonder that we should make the Same
fatal mistake with young chickens,
calves, and pigs. It is quite safe to
say that 90 per cent. OF all the dis
orders of these young animals results
from overlooking. A shepherd will
more easily raise 90 per cent. Of his
lambs than farmer will rear SO per
cent. of his Matched chicks and The
reason is that the lambs feed them
selves while the chickens are led and
crammed as long as their little crops
will hold one more grain offood. Then
the fatal diarrhea comes on, the chicks
are weak and puny and fall a prey to
the cape worms, or they become para.

Seed Corn.

Is there any traceable relation be-
tween that old-fashioned log house and
the vigor of seed corn? Years ago,
when log houses were plenty and joists
numerous overhead in the kitchen by
the chimney, the seed corn was brought
in and "traced up" and hung on pegs
by the huge chimney and was thor
oughly dried out, hanging there for
months. Now the modern house has
no chimney, SO to speak, and no joists
on which to hang the ears OF seed corn
has gone out fashion, and now it is a
yearly lament that seed corn is poor
lacking in vigor, etc. Planting from
corn-crib explains the matter. The
corn does not get dry as it used to
when hung in the warm rooms by the
big chimney, and frost injuries the
germ. We don't banker after the log
house or the smoke-stained ioists
over the dining room, or yet festoons
OF seed corn, but there must be a
studied way to dry seed corn in the
fall and know that it is dry, or else we
will be forced back into log houses to
live; or give up growing corn.

BentOn's Brag.

From the Youths Companion. -
Fifty years ago strangers, on enter.
ing the United States senate chamber.
asked that Clay, Webster, Calhoun and
Benton might be pointed out to than.
They were the four leading statesmen
OF the day, and the personal appear
ance of each one justified the gaze Of
his admiring partisans.
But neither of the first three, not ev-
ell Webster, was more striking in fig
ure, face, or head than Benton. He
was conspicuous physically, dressed
neatly, bore himself with dignity. save
when irratated, and delivered instruc-
tive and edifying speeches upon such
subjects as he investigated.
His senatorial brethren used to dis
like his dictatorial manner, and the
people thought him pompous ard ego
tistical Mr.. Benton's bearing was
not conciliatory. He was as dogmatic
toward his colleagues as if they were
pigmies and he a giant. In addressing
a popular assembly, he threw mod
esty aside and spoke boastingly of
himself and his deeds.
Though fond of talking about him
self, prompted by q strange freak of
modesty, he rarely used the personal
pronoun "I,' employing the third per-
son instead, as Denton said this or
Denton did that"
"Citizens," said he once, in public
address,-he rarely said 'fellow-citi-
zens, "-'@no man since the days of Cic-
ero has been abused as has Benton.
What Cicero was to Catiline, the
Roman conspirator, Benton has been
to John Caldwell Calhoun, the South
Carolina nullitier. Cicero Illuminating
his philippics against Catiline in the
Roman forum; Benton denouncins
John Caldwell Calhoun on the floor of
the American senate. Cicero against
Catliine; Benton against Calhoun"
fEColonel, / believe you have made an
impression on these people," said q
friend to him, after he had ended his
speech. ,..'.
"Always the case, sir" replied the
egotistical but sincere man; Railways
the case, sir. No one opposes Benton
but few blackjack prairie lawyers;
fellows who aspire to the ambition of
cheating some honest farmer out of
heifer in suit before a justice OF the
peace, sir; these are the only oppo-
nents Of Benton. Benton and the peo-
pie, Benton and democracy are one
and the same, sir-synonomous term,
sir, synonymous terms, sir.
Two of Benton's active political op-
ponents were Jones stAtesenatora and
Birch, a judge of the supreme court.
They followed him in his canvassing,
and replied to his speeches.
"Citizens," said the amazed states
man, II have been logged all over
this state by such men as Claude
Jones and Jim Hirch. Pericles was
once SO dogged. He called a servant,
made him light lamp, and show the
man who had dogged him the way
home. .h| &c. w.
"But it could not be expected ofme,
citizens, that I should ask any SER

any free negro, to perform an office OF
such hulniliating degradation as gal.

a Very Tough Story.
From the San Francisco Post.

EFOIIl Une oan FRANCISCO fOSC.
A very tough story which is vouched
for, after a fashion, is going the rounds
and given for what it is worth. It is
related that Mr.. S--M-was sitting in
his back yard talking to some friends
when his attention was called to ahen
with q brood of young chickens and q
large rat that had emerged from it's
hole and was quietly regarding the
young chickens with the prospect of
meal in view. As the. rat came from
his hole the house cat awoke from her
afternoon nap and caught sight Of the
rat. Crouching low she awaited devel-
opements, and stood prepared to
spring on his ratship. Ats the appear
ance OF his ancient enemy, the cat, 8
Scotch terrier, which had been summing
itself in the wood shed, pricked IN its
ears and quietly made for the place
where the cat stood. At this moment
a boy came upon the scene. The
chickens were not cognizant Of being
watched by the rat, nor did the rat
BEE the cat, nor the feline the dog who
had not noticed the coming az the bow.
