Tho Education OF Children.

To the Editor Of the Dispatch:
At the present time, when tho i'm
portance Of education is generally appre-
ciated, and parents are 30 eager TO give
their children the benefit of mental
training, q word of caution as TO the
time when such a course should begin
and the nature OF the work to be per-
formed by youthful minds may not be
inappropriate.
In the earlier years OF life, the brain,
like the other organs, is tender and pc
culiarly liable to injury from prolonged
and excessive use. Great and irrepara-
bic evil has often been done by tue in
ordinate desire to have children excel III
their studies.
DR.. William A. Hammond, than whom
there is no better authority, uses the
following language on this subject IN the
Popular Science Monthly for November,
1884:
Most civilized communities have en-
acted laws against the employment of
children in severe physical labor. This is
well enough, for the muscles of young
persons arc tender and weak, and not
therefore adapted to the work to which
cupidity or ignorance would otherwise
subject them. But nd such fostering
care does the State take of the brains Of
the young. There are no laws to pre-
vent the undeveloped nervous system be-
ing overtssked and brought to disease or
even absOlute destruction. Every physi-
elan sees cases OF the kind. and wonders
how parents of intelligence can be so
blind TO the welfare OF their offspring as
10 force or even to allow their brains TO be
worked to degree that in many cases
results IN idiocy or death"
1.-THE period ofsearly childhood-say
up to seven or eight years OF ages
that during which the BRAN and other
parts Of the nervous system are most
actively developing in order 10 fit them
for the great wsrk before them. 1t is
safe to say that the only instruction
given during this time should Do that
which consiAts in teaching children bow
TO observe. The pHceptive faculties
alone should be made tho subject OF
systematic attempt at development.
The child should DO taught how to use
its senses, and especially how 10 see,
hear, and touch. In this manner know
ledge would be acquired In the way that

the COMBINE entered into BY certain
private parties TO eItOrt money from
cotton-planters, and yet Mr.. Blaine con-
tends that trusts are private matters
that tho President and Congress have
nothing TO do with. Now under the
clause giving Congress the right ito
regulate commerce between the States "
it seems to me that it can pass bill
which will quickly destroy the sugar and
bagging combinations. IL Congress
cannot interfere under that clause in the
matter, then it is clear TO my mind that
the people are completely at the mercy Of
such trusts and combinations
IL Congress can stipulate the terms on
which q manufacturer OF tobacco can
only ship his tobacco out of his factory
(eyen if it is to be sold in the State In
which the factory may be located). surely
it can pass some bill the object OF which
will be to break up trusts and combines.
Under the clause referred TO in the Con-
stitution am decidedly Of the opinion
that it is in tho power Of Congress 10
pass bin which will give the people re-
lie. against the most unjust extortion
that the mind of man could conceive.
TO suppose that the peoples govern
ment has not the power to put down a
system so utterly at war with the best
interests OF our country would be to
admit that the few had a right to run
things entirely for their own profit and
pleasure.
If the cold blooded letter OF the law is
now in favor OF combines and trusts, ."
then let such law be parsed by Con-
gress as will make all such combinations
improbable and unlawful Ii the latter
is not done, then the day is not far dis
tant when this country will be as com
plstely governed by money kings"
Us the people OF Europe (or some Of
tbem) are governed by their kings and
mobiles. A. G. Nj.

Ahakspeare IN Paris.
(Losdon Globe.l

The statute to shakespeare, about to be
erected in Paris, has, 1t seems, been
highly pleased by local critics, who think
that tue artist has impaired 90 the
" regular features" of the poet the
dignity and repose which were his
characteristics. II is evident that our
neighbors have more definite Informs
ton about Shakspeare's personal appear
snce and character than We unhappy
Englishmen possess. Ii is notable, moro
over, that out of the eight plays inscribed
on the pedestal six are tragedies, the
others bong 1.-The Tempest and
Henry VIII" AID, OF course. French
men can undsrstand Shakespeare tragedy
better than they can his comedy.

The CAUTIONS which Or. Hammond
gives are applicnble more to the ciass OF
studics usually parsusd in our public
and private schools than TO the ienshn OF
time that children are kept IN school:
This has been very wisely abridged oil
Iato years, and tho confinement so re.
hevcd by frequsnt intermissions that
il may not be considered excessive e1-
cept for the very young.
But, in and ont Of school, tasks ara
frequently imposed upon the memory oil
cbildren-such as repeating q large
number of texts or versos-and their
other mental fscnlties, by studies too
severe snd abstruse, which are both cruel
and iniudioious. M. II.

fit Of before he left. AS he was packing

THE WORST CHARACTERS.
"The men we most fear are the new

of their own. They come to us for GER

times they viii salt the sample

tract with my late partner to test his
process in bis presence. He agreed TO
give him tho details OF the process,
