Educational Changes.
Demorest's Monthly.

Demorest's Monthly.
Racine Cottage, in Wisconsin, has
introduced a feature in its curriculum
of studies that is worthy of imitation
in all our leading colleges and acade-
mics. Professors are employed to
lecture upon topics of immediate in
terest, such as contemporary history,
recent discoveries in science, new in
ventions, and the progress of the arts.
In the older colleges excessive atten-
ton has been given to ancient history
and the study of dead languages. A
highly educated GRADUATED Of Oxford
or Harvard might really know little
or nothing of the wonderful modern
world in which he lived, yet our era
is the most glorious in the annals of
the race. There was a discussion re-
Gently between President Elliot of
Harvard University and President
McCosh of Princeton as to the proper
curriculum of a great university.
Much was said touching elective
studies-about discipline, and what
should be required of youths on en-
tering college, and whether certain
studies should be required,s.to justify
the granting of decree. But after
all what is the object of education.
Is it not to fit the men and women
for their work in life, hence they
should be trained with a view to give
them a sound mind in a sound body.
Their mental powers should be exer-
cised and disciplined, and they
should have such special schooling as
would enable them to make a liveli-
hood. An industrial training should
be given to every boy and girl, while
the university should fit students to
become scientists, artists, teachers,
and captains of industry, with the
usual proportion of course of profess
sional lawyers, clergymen and ply.
sicians. But the first requisite of all
the colleges is to keep their students
acquainted with science, invention
and culture of the age they live in

1t is thought that European im>
migration will be larger this year than
for several year past. There are sew
eral reasons for this, of which the most
important is the extremely low rates
offered by railroad and steamship COM
panies. For S11 an immigrant can be
carried from Bremen, Liverpool or
Dublin, to Chicago or St. Louis, in this
country. Then, again, the land agents
are making great efforts to colonize
their territory with good farming peo>
pie, and are offering great inducements
to immigrante to settle with them.

Marriage and Health.

married people, and so of all cOnts>
gions. Professor Richard A. Proctor
while admitting these facts warns
sickly people against marriage. He
says they have no right to burden
wholesome partners with invalid COM
panions for life, nor should they run
the risk of bringing children into the
world, that may inherit their chronic
ailments. The greater mortality of
the single may be due to the fact that
invalids of both sexes often abstain
from marriage. The question has been
raised whether any one should be per.
mitted to marry without doctors per

divine ordinance, for clergymen to unite
persons who cannot be true companions

Farmer and Gazette.

This should be the case with every
farm. Of what avail is alfour vaunt-
ed intelligence and skill if we cultivate
our farms only to depreciate their
productiveness? What hope is their
for prosperity If we continue to i'm
poverish our lands? The time will
soon come when there will be no more
west to flee to. The system ofagricul-
ture which leaves the farm poorer
every year is little less than criminal.
The highwayman takes from another
the proceeds of profitable labor. The
careless cultivator takes form others
the possibility of profitable labor.
Which does the greatest mischief?
Every farm should be so managed as
to improve with age.

THE LAST SAD RITES TO GRANT.


Yesterday was a day of mourning In
the United States. The last sad rites
were bestowed on a patriot, soldier and
hero. All that was mortal OF General

Throughout the land he served so we'll
evidences of respect and affection were

hero. Our press dispatches mention
some of the places, but not all, that
honored him. The demonstrations at
New York, Philadelphia and Chicago
were particularly noticeable. And SO
the end of a great life, with greater
fame, is ended. Grant now passes into
history. The fullest need of praise will
be awarded him through all Of the COM
ing ages. Even here in far distant Ne.
vada, amidst the eternal hills, where the
sentiments Of gratitude and patriotism
burn with as great fervor as in the older
and more populous communities, the
memory and brilliant achievements of
the distinguished dead were not forgot
ten. Eureka's tribute, if o as preten-
tious or as imposing, was as heartily
sincere as that of any other place in the
Union. May the great benefactor of his
time and humanity sleep well.

favored the Electoral Commission be-

The condition of the railroad system
of the United States at the end of 1884
as shown in "Poor's Manual" is chiefly
remarkable for the enormous decrease in
tho gross earnings, amounting to more
than City million dollars, a falling of
from 1883 of six per cent. This is rightly
deemed phenomenal. in view of the fact
that steadily since 1877 the gross earn.
ings of the roads have increased. having
nearly doubled in the seven years prior
to 1884. If Benner's predictions as to
periods in prices be any guide, we may
be entering upon . period Of depression

Lead has reached 81 as per hundred
pounds In the New York market. This
price renders profitable the working Of all

CHOLERA THREATENINa rs.

According to our dispatches yesterday
there are upwards of 5000 cases of
cholera throughout Spain, and on Friday
last 9l0 deaths occurred. Many new
cases are reported in Marseilles. To
Americans its appearance at that city is
q far greater cause of alarm than it's ap.
p~earance among the orange groves of
Valencia or the gardens of Murcia.
Every steamer that arrives at New York
from the ports of Italy makes its call at
Marseilles. Through Marseilles comes
all the produce that is brought from the
Mediterranean to our tables. The har-
Dor of Southern France has, in recent
years, come into close proximity to the
United States, and we can hardly keep
too close a watch on the vessels which
anchor in its waters.
So, if it were only from selfish motives,
we would hope that the visitation may
be turned aside from the city of the good
Bishop Belzunce, and that the present
Summer. may not recall that fatal Sum.
mer, one hundred and sixty.fve years
ago, when the streets OF Marseilles were
choked with corpses, and the galley slaves
persisted as they drove the horses. and
none but the Bishop and the Chevalier
Rose would consent to bury the dead.
