FRANCOIS PAUL JULES GREW,
Reelected President of France fer a
 Term of Seven Years.

Re.eIeeted President of France fer a Term of Seven Years. l At the close of the year the French Sen ate and Chamber of Deputies held a joint l session for the purpose of holding presi- | denuial election. They reelected M. Grevy President of the republic. Their choice is one approved by the French people and the voice of Europe, M. Grevy having dis charged the duties of his high office con- scientieusly and without ambition save to do right So far as his influence goes the republic is safe.
 But he begins his second term amid po- litical uncertainty and gloom. To trouble from factions and discontent the govern ment has overspent and threatened insol- vency is ahead. Many friends of France and of democratic institutions are fearful that the republic will not survive the dan gers with which it is encompassed.
 The good old man to whose hands the destinies of France are largely committed in his reelection to the presidency, Fran oois Paul Jules Grevy, was born August 15 1913, in the department of the Jura He was educated to the legal profession, studying in the capital. At the beginning of the second republic in 1S4S he was ap pointed commissioner for the Jura. Soon after the people of his native department elected him a member of the Constituent Assembly, of which he became vice presi- dent.
 When, in December, 1851, President Louis Napoleon betrayed his trust, M. Gre wy was arrested by the usurper's orders He remained in Mazas prison for a time. Upon his release he practiced law.
 He was elected from the Jura in 1868 and reelected the following year. After the war between France and Germany, in which the empire was overthrown, M. Gre " was elected Gin 1S71) president of the Assembly. He resigned this position in 1873. Three years later he was again elect ed representative from the Jura and was chosen president of the Chamber of Deputies Marshal McMahon, President of the French republic, M. Grevy was elected his successor on January 30, 1879.

Speaker Tibbitts' address was very appro- priate.

 This country will not be out of coal to burn for some time. An official report of the coal resources of Pennsylvania shows that the present output of the State can be continued for eight hundred years. But oth- CT States producing coal in increased quantities, Alabama's output having increas- ed from 40, 900 tons to 2,OO0, ,0O0 tons within two years.
 It seems that the anti-siIver men are at least little more frightened than they need to be.

 The Lake City (Florida) Reporter is not afraid to speak its mind. It does so in the following healthy fashion: The time has come for every honest man to give his unhesitating condemnation to every act of lawlessness. Because a man is poor. or weak, or ignorant, or colored, is no reason that he should be op- pressed, or caused to feel that he has no rights that others are bound to respect. Take the disorder producing element out of our section, and in the past five years we would have increased in wealth over $2, 900, 900 and over 10, ,000 in population.

 It is obvious upon an inspection of the buildings and grounds of the institution that the repairs called for by the trustees ought to be made. For the accomplishment of that object specific appropriation, or au increase in the price of board of the boys, will be necessary.

AGRICULTURE,

The Board of Agriculture and the officers of the experiment station continue to dis charge their respeetivs duties, as heretofore, with great usefulness to the public. For reasons apparently satisfactory you will be asked to relieve them from the operation of the act of 1885, requiring their annual reports to be made and printed on or before the first day of November.
 A commission appointed by the General Assembly at it's last session will present to you report upon the Storrs Agricultural school. That report will show reasons, which cannot now be detailed, why the school, under its present circumstances, cannot be expected to flourish, notwithstanding the zeal and ability of it's instructors.

BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS

1 commend to your attentive consideration the very able report of the Commissioner of the Bureau of Labor Statistics There is reason for regret that the number of copies oft required by law to be printed is so small Tine large amount of information and the many important suggestions which it con tains warrant the expectation that the Bureau, if 1t shall continue to be euergeti- caily and wisely administered, will be of great value to the State.
 Referring you particularly to that part of the report which states the facts relating to the employment of children in various kinds of labor and discusses the laws of Massa- chnsetts and other States touching the mat ter, l recommend that our law upon the sub ject be assimilated to the law of Massachu- setts by the passage of an act forbidding such employment of children under ten years of age, and providing that no child under twelve years Of age shall be employed except during the vacations of tiie pubic schools, and that no child under fourteen years of age shall be so employed unless he or she shall have attended school twenty weeks during the next preceding year.
 Possibly it may be impracticable to go far ther in this direction at present, but it is to be hoped that the time is not distant when young children-unable as they are to pro- vide for their own defence-will receive from the State larger measure of protection than would be given them by the law now pro- posed.
 Agreeing with tLe commissioner in the op- inon that the bureau would be more efficient 1T 1t could employ special agents for special investigations, 1 further recommend that the moderate sum requisite for securing the ser vices of such agents be appropriated for that purpose.

HUMANE INSTITUTIONS.

The State extends it's especial care to the disabled soldier, the soldiers orphans, the insane, the imbecile, the deaf and dumb, the blind, and the children who need referma- tory discipline. Of these classes it directly supports, wholly or in part, more than two thousand persons, most of whom are distri- buted among our own humane and reforma- tory institutions, ard q small number among similar establishments in Rhode Island, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Yer mont Satisfactory information in regard to each of these institutions justifes a conf dent belief that they are well managed and that the large amount of money spent annu- ally by the State upon its benefciaries un- der their charge is honestly and wisely ap- piled te the uses for which it is given.

DISABLED SOLDIERS, ETC.

The State has promised to provide for the medical treatment and the support of dis abled and indigent soldiers and sailors of the late war, and has undertaken to furnish them such relief in the hospitals at Hartford, Middletown, New Haven and Bridgeport, and in the Fitch's Home at Darien. Hither- to the pledges thus given to those brave men have been redeemed; but the time is at hand wlen, with the instfu1nentalities now at our command, they can be redeemed longer. It is with great difficulty that the institutions just named can furnish sufficient accemmo dations for this class of our beneijaries-a class steadily increasing, and likely to con tinue increasing for some years to come. The necessity for promptly meeting this exigency is manifest.
 The defect pointed out by the quartermas- ter general in the law relating to burial ex- penses of indigent soldiers and sailors also needs attention.
