How the Crown Prince OF Germany Con-

How the Crown Prince OF Germany Con-
quered His stubborn Son.
The Crown Prince of Prussia was
always very sensible man in the
management of his household, and he
is ably seconded by his wife. On one
occasion the governor of his children
came to him and said:
Your Highness, Unjust complain OF
the little Prince; he refuses to have his
face washed in the morning."
Does he?" answered the Crown
Prince. We'll remedy that. After
this let him go unwashed."
lit shall be done" said the governor.
Now the sentries have to salute every
member of the royal family-children
and all-whenever they pass. The day
after, the little four-year-old Prince
went out for a walk with his governor.
As they passed sentry-box where a
grim soldier stood the man stood rigid
without presenting arms. The little
Prince-accustomed to universal defer
ence-looked displeased. but said moth
ing. Presently another sentry was
passed. Neither did this one give sign
of recognition. The little Prince
angrily spoke of it to his old governor,
and they passed in. And when the
walk was finished, and they had met
many soldiers, who none of them saluted
the Prince, the little fellow dashed in to
his father exclaiming:
''Papa-papa-you must whip every
man in your guards! They refuse to
salute when Ipass!'
"Ah! nv son. said the Crown Prince.
''they do rightly: for clean soldiers
never salute a dirty little Prince"

The end of that wretched night came
at last When the welcome morning

mind and settled down to make up ar
rears of sleep.
l was surprised at the reply received
that same evening from Brand: I'VE

THE MESNENGER.
The Governors Message.

Gov. McEnery sent in a very interes-
ting message to the Legislature which
convened at Baton Rouge, last Monday.
Though lengthy it will amply repay
perusal. Many important subjects are
candidly treated, and should the recon-
mendatiOns, or at least part of them,
be needed, the people will be greatly
benefited. The message shows that
many of our complaints are purely ina
ginary. The crops. its says, have been
abundant; the health of the State un-
exampled; the levees have never been
in better condition than now: the public
schools have increased i'm efficiency; the
agriculturist's interests are improving;
taxes are not Onerous; property, life and
liberty have been preserved and protec-
ted and justicelhas been speedily admi-
nistered. One passage in the message
which ought to attract general attention
reads: ''the government must protect
itself and in the duty and authority to
require enforce attendance in public
schools, the State has a right to inter-
vene for its own protection. The igno.
rant man as voter is as powerful as the
most learned. The people are sovereign
and every reason dictates that the voter
should be fitted to fulfill the duties of
citizenship" This is sound logic. There
are many important matters that have
been left unsaid, but, we presume. un-
less the Legislature fails to take them in
consideration, the Governor will address
a supplemental message to that body
covering what was left out. However,
taking ii all in all, it is strong docu-
ment.

Progress of The South.

IL can hardly have escaped the notice
OF close Observers that the proposition to
appropriate funds flOm the federal
treasury to Increase the educational ia
cilities of the South received its chief
support, if not original suggestion. from
the census of 1880. The shock which
linking men of the whole country sus-
tained when the returns Of that year
showed that nearly half the voters in
southern states were illiterate had i'm
mediate outcome in movement design
ed to correct the evil. The idea pre-
vailed then and thereafter that iIlitera-
cy with its train of dangers, was Deing
opposed by influences not sufficiently
cOunteractive, and that the south was
either hOpelessly Indifferent to educa-
tiOn or financially incompetent to meet
emergency. People failed to perceive
that though the increase from 1870 to
1880 in the aggregate number of illiterate
in the late slave holding states h I'd been
more than half million, yet illiteracy,
considered relatively to the growth of
the population, had actually decreased
fOrty-five in every thousand inhabitants
and hence had become vanishing dan
ger. And more than this, no account
whatever was taken Of the progress
southern education had already made,
and in increasing degree was still ma
king. 1t is only within year that we
have come to recognize the hopeful signs
Of the southern educational work. A
sober review of the whole educational
field in the south during the decade re-
veals a steady and rapid progress in the
work Of common schools in the highest
degree encouraging. and points to gra-
tifying state Of intellectual and moral
develOpement.

Amerchant who opens business es-
tablishment does so with view to sell
goods. Some seek after trade. others
rest supirely and wait for trade to come

others prefer the people to find out. what
they keep in store; some are bold in in
viting customers; others seem ashamed,

different modes to bring their waves be-
fore the public-sOme will trust to an
elegant fit, hoping the purchaser will
boom his house; sOmeEwill throw in ia

his generosity; some will hang out and
expose in front of their stores nearly half
of their stock, thinking to appall the Gu
pidity of the passer by;some employ dunn
mics; while few will use the means Of
giving the most prOmiscuOus publicity,
by,advertising in their local paper. This
latter class requests you TO visit their
stock they are not afraid of the quality
of their goods. they invite comparison
Of prices, they do not ask you to run all
over creation for what you need, since
you can find what you want at their
counters. in fine they are neither asha-
med of their calling nor afraid of cOmpe-
tition. Those merchants you can safely
deal with.
