Chinese Who Drag Carriages.

Trot, trot, trot, along the smooth,
sunny but bamboo shaded high road,
have little leisure now to observe these
astonishing riekshaw coolies. They
year the enormous traditional mush
room Chinese hat, suitable in case
either of beating rain or fierce sun, un-
der which are tucked their hard plated
pigtails-for even a coolie would feel
himself disgraced were he minus pig
tail. They are bare-footed, bare-legged,
bare-armed, and wear just sufficient
rags to save themselves from the charge
of indelicacy Their skins are sallOW,
their Monaghan faces are pinched, THEN
stature is small, their limbs seem atten-
uated and loosely put together.
And vet these Misunderstanding
wretches, whom to call brethren" is
indeed heavy demand on our charity,
throw themselves forward into the
shafts and drag their carriages with
their passengers, who may be ten or
may be twenty stone, not at a walk or
a shuttle, or an amble, but at a good
round trot at about six miles an hour.
They neither flag, pant nor perspire,
but keep up this pace for two or three
miles at stretch. Would not the most
renowned European athlete or pedes-
trian be but feeble coney in compaFi-
son? Moreover, these coolies have to
content themselves at the end of their
Journey with centS-a cent is a frac-
fion less than halfpenny. They exult
if they receive 10 cents, and consider
the donor an utter fool if he gives them
- cents.
The Backbone of England's Legal POlity.
lLondcn SPECTATOR
The Temple to-day comprises two of
the four great inns of cOurt-Lincoln's
Inn, Gray's Inn, Inner Temple, Middle
TempIe-wbich, taken collectively, con-
stitute the backbone of the legal polity
of England. Ben JonsOn describes them
as the noblest nurseries of humanity
and liberty in the kingdom. They are
all of great age and the recipients OF
rich revenues. The income of the Mid
die Temple alone mot the richest of the
FOUR from the single item of rents IS
about 1:i, 900 pounds sterling yearly.
All the inns of court are unincorpOrated
voluntary societies.
In our modern nomenclature the
name linn may seem strange one for
an institution of learning, but the term
is a literal rendering of the ancient title
hospitia applied to them in the Latin
records, as distinguished from public
lodging-houses (diversoria). Each INN
consists of hall, a chapel, law IL
brary. set of rooms for the bencherS
and a large number of houses divided
into small suites known as ''champers,
and occupied chiefly by barristers, sollc-
itors and students, though tenancy Is
not restricted to these classes.

Considerable drill should be given
in the articulation of the elementary
sounds, those being brought in as
needed; j. e.. as they occur in tine
words we teach The consonant
sounds should he strongly ennnciated,
and an especial effort should be made
to overcome the tendency to slight
those sounds at the end of words; as,
KEEP for kept, an for and.
Try to select your words for the
first work, SO that the vowel sounds
shall be, chiefly, the long and short
sounds.
When the pupils have made con
siderable progress in the way midi
Gated, they should be taught Ill Of
the elementary sounds. Then, you
should require the word to he sound
ed, that is, all of its sounds given, if
the pupil has trouble in proEouneing
it. A great deal of work on the oral
elements, While the organs of the
voice are flexible, is the thing to do.
Even though no efforts he made 10
teach the names of the letters. YET,
before the First Reader is completed,
perhaps, all or nearly all of the letters
are known by their appropriate names.
1t will not take long to teach the let
ters in their order, now; and this
should certainly be done 50 rs to give
a readiness in the use of reference
books.
Ii those few thoughts prove helpful
to any of my fellow teachers ! shall
feel amply repaid for my work on this
article.
