A COLLEGE FOR PEDAGoGUEs

Another college has been added to the
roll of New York institutions. 1t is not
college of arts or of sciences, but a pro-
fessional school designed especially for
the training of pedagogues, Its charter
has been secured from the Board of Re
gents, and its endowments of 5 ,0O0, 900
has been made up by the private sub
scriptions of public spirited citizens.
The new college will not be a COM
pelitor of the normal schools, although
some of the branches pursued in those
schools will be taught in it. 1t is meant
to lie an nstitution of a higher ord than
any normal school, anJ it has the right
to confer degree of Bachelor of Peda-
gogy on its graduates.
The difference between this college
and the normal, schools as we under
stsnd it, is not only one of degree but of
kind. There is to be more attention paid
to the science of education there is to
be more thorough training in the his
tory and principles of that science; there
is to be deep study of the philosophy
Of the child mind; special attention is to
be paid to the harmonious development
of the human faculties, of eye and hand,
as well as of memory. Graduates of
this college ought to be fitted, after a
little actual experience in teaching, for
positions as superintendents and princi-
pals of high-grade institutions.
The college is a development of the
school already established in the old
Union Seminary building on University
place, No violent revolution is neces'
sary to make the present school a college,
The building is there and the faculty and
the students. The permission to confer
degrees and the endowment securing
the perpetulty OF the institution and all
that are necessary to equip it as full
tiedged college.
Such an institution as this ought tc
prove of great benefit, not only to the
city but to the whole country. II any
mistake has been made it is in placing
the standard of admission too low .Acad
emy graduates of eighteen years old are
hardly up to the requirements OF sucf
an institution as this ought to be. TC
secure the best results it should aim &c
lstand as high in its sphere as the medi
cal colleges and law schools stand II
theirs. The standard, however, can b'
raised gradually until it becomes al
high as any one need desire it to be

done, the development of the instltu

CATCHING HUSBANDS IN FRANCE.

In the south Of France they make a
very peculiar love charm in a very pc

the young woman catches and boxes up

buried in an ant hill for two weeks. The

eat up all the flesh, and all that is left is

A SERIOUS MISUNDERSTANDING

Why it was done we cannot say, but
quite a number of the streets of Austin,
Texas, have been named after females.
Such names as Emma, Laura and lisa
bella stare at you in large letters from
almost every corner. The Austin peO-
pie, or some of them at least, have be-
come tolerably familiar with Maria,
Jane, Susan and the rest, but strangers
are liable to become bewildered oy this
singular nomenclature.
A gentleman from Dallas, who had
only few hours to spend in the city,
wished to visit the bhnd asylum, as he
asked the first man he met
"Can you tell me how can find the
Blind Asylum y
That's easy enough. You know
where Emma street is ?"
II do not. | have no acquaintance
with any lady of that name. There is q
family in Dallas by that name, but am
not acquainted, with them. Does Emma
Street live near the Blind Asylum y
The Austin man stared at the st anger
for a moment, and then pointing dowr
Magnolia Avenue, he said :
You see where Maria comes into the
Avenue 2"
The Dallas man looked in the direc
tion pointed out, and perceiving a fa
old negro woman with big basket OF
her arm, nodded his head in assent.
"Well, you must take Maria until yor
get to the corner of Elizabeth, and con
tinue on until Matilda and Sarah CONF
together, and then you will be all right.
"Look here, my friend, if you think
am that kind of man because | an
from Dallas, you are most confoundedly
off. want you to understand that | an
a gentleman"
"You dog gasted idiot ~ retorted thu
Austin man, "if l was as bad off fo
brains as you are would bore hole il
my empty skull and hire a negro to pou
in ten cents worth of cheap oleomarga

The Dallas man shook his fist at tn
native and replied

matte Asylum was too small to accom-
modate all the lunatics, but now know
it," and ne moved off toward E5meralda

CHAPTER II.

A year had passed. 1t was now 1777,
The Hessians had long since been trans
ported to the colonies, where they had
done bloody service for England. Una
BILE to understand the language of the
people, brutal, avaricious, they showed
no mercy to fallen foe. They ravaged
the country and insulted defenceless
women and children. The British not
ONLY not restrained them, but had even
melted them to further deeds of vio-
lence, which the inhabitants OF the
country over which they marched view.
ed with horror. Their deeds stirred the
Americans to desperation and "No quar-.
ter to the bloody Hesslans," became the
watchword of all.
Meanwhile Howe had entered Phila-
delphia. He saw that is was necessary
for him to hold the country round iG
complete subjection, and to this end he
proceeded to send out expeditions ir
various directions. One of these, against
the forts on the Delaware, was intrusted
to Count Donop and his Hessans. Away
with this expedition went our friend
Fred Muller. He was still the SAME
simple, honest peasant as of old, though
the privations of war had changed hin
considerably. He had picked up suffi
cient England to know that he and hi
comrades were heartily detested by tn,
American people. The injustice of thu
cause lie was fighting for ranked deeI
| in his breast, while the barbaTities of hi
comrades filled him with loathing. II,
thought of desertion, but to him, simple
peasant that he was, honor was tn,
abiding principle OF life and he woulC
not break the oath Of allegiance he haC
taken TO the English government. Fl,
kept himself sloof from his comrades
and earnestly endeayored to rise from
the ranks. And 80 he marched on anC
on, disgusted with his associations, bu
powerless to better his position.
