Tho Pennsylvania,s Grea. Loss.

In addition to the great damage done to
property in Johnstown and adjoining bor-
oughs the loss sustained by the Penn
sylvania Railroad WAS the severest blow
they had ever yet sustained. Five thou
sand workmen have been employed day
and night to repair the tracks and put the
road-bed in condition again. The loss OF
rolling stock, including thirty engines and
hundreds of freight cars was also very
great.

Fourth of July.

What sorrowful anniversary of Ameri-
can Independence did we have. A few
flags floating from some dilapidated
buildings, and an occasional fire-cracker
exploded by some lonely little boy, the
remnant of the hundreds OF boys and
girls that once thronged our streets, were
the only things to remind us that the
Glorious Fourth was here. Few, if any,
of the busy workmen ceased their opera
tions.

front in the great educational move.
ments that mark the best efforts Of
other denominations. The time is
remembered when the denomination
had control of but one institution of
learning in the state of New York;
that was Cazanovia Academy; that
institution has long since been lost
among the many superior places Of
learning. There is far less estrange-
ment at the present day among min
listers and members of different de-
nominations than in earlier times.
It was once easy to determine the
church home of clergyman, if a
stranger in the pulpit, without being
told. Now ministers of different de-
nominations conduct church services
SO nearly alike that their distinctive
church connection cannot be detect
ed, unless liturgal form is used.
The rough doctrinal points, which
were once the cause of antagonisms
between religious bodies, have been
struck off and the differences be-
tween churches so harmonized that
doctrinal controversies are seldom
known. The changes here noted are
the result of the abandonment of
old opinions and the adoption of
more liberal and charitable ideas.
The changes in the domain of
thought here referred to are but a
few of the many which are important.

National independence.

AS the day fcr concentrating
our National independence is near at
hand, there appears to have been
quite the usual demand for oratorical
talent for the occasion. There does
seem to be a peculiar kind ofspeak-
ing talent, adapted to addresses at a
Fourth of July gathering, differing
from that on most other occasions.
A plain, matter Of fact, argumenta-
tive speech on Independence Day is
not so taking with a. promiscuous
audience as one that appeals to the
emotional and patriotic feelings of
those whom the speaker addresses.
1t is possible that many a man who
in his school boy days, stubbornlyre-
fused to practice public speaking,
now has some regret that he did not
give little attention in learning to
tell the public what he knows. How
often has the excuse been heard from
we'll educated men, when asked to
speak in public: 81 never practiced
public speaklng.' Among the many
changes in the matter of Fourth of
July addresses, there is one particu-
larly noticeable. Over fifty years
ago it was common for the orator to
dwell on the wonderful greatness of
this country; he would call attention
to the majestic Mississippi and Miss
ouri rivers rolling their great vol
umes of water to the ocean; to our
great lakes, of sufficient size to be
reckoned inland seas; to the almost
bouAdless prairies of the west, their
extent then being but partially ex-
plored; to the great chain of Rocky
Mountains, once supposed to be al
most impossible barriers, except as
deep gorges might possibly be found
and to various other wonders where
nature had wrought on her most stu
pendous plan This was all in place
for Fourth of July defamation, had
the orators not sometimes forgotten
to leave the influence that all this
grandeur of nature was the outcome
of our national independence, and to
be placed to the credit of our sur
passing form of government. Fourth
of July orations have not of late
years been devoted to the glorifica-
ton of the wonders of the country;
that while we have a grand inherit
ance, we have not monopolized all.
There is still much good country left
that belongs to other people.

Permanent Country Roads.

Only a few years ago, it being a
season of almost impossible muddy
roads, the subject of constructing
permanent roads in the country
towns where railroads did not sup.
ply the deficiency, was discussed and
favorable, action expressed. The
legislature of this state has enacted
laws similar to those in Illinois,
Missouri and other states, where the
work of constructing substantial COW
ering on dirt roads has been done.
Instances not far from this city have
recently been mentioned where farm
ers have found it difficult to leave
their homes with a loaded wagon
during portions of the late wet sea-
son. 1t is this condition of prairie
roads to which they are subject in
wet seasons, that has revived the
subject of permanent roads. If &C.
ton be delayed until a hot sun once
more dries the mud as solid as a
pavement, the mud may be partially
forgotten. 1t is not only the incon-
venience of bad roads, but the de-
lays occasioned in transporting pro-
ducts to market often subject the
farmer to much loss. The advan
tages of macadam or gravel roads
on main lines of travel away from
railroads are manifest. There are
large, we'll settled neighborhoods in
the prairie districts that can never
expect railroad to be constructed
for their benefit alone. An i'm
proved road would in many cases in
agricultural districts, render the far
mers independent of railroads. The
kind Of material required for build
ing the road, the cost per rod, and
the value of its economy are all mat
tiers of information easily accessible
where not already known.

sermons from manuscript, once COM
mon by Presbyterian, Congregation

has been mostly discontinued, and
now the clergymen of these churches
have taken to extemporizing. This
satisfies the masses of people better,
but what is gained in satisfying the
multitude may be lost in want of
compactness in composition and
aptness of words. The most radi-
cal changes Of all in the churches
have taken place in the Methodist
churches. Their church buildings
were once of the most unpretentious
kind; inferior externally and inter
nally, destitute of ornament, plain
uncushioned seats. Stained glass

THE protectionist journals last year
asserted that the low price of wool at
that time was in part due to the threat
that the duty on the article would be
repealed. The free trade papers scott
ed at this nronositioD and predicted that
there would be no better prices even if
the Mills bill failed. Now the De-
troit Tribune says: "The wool season
is only just fatty open and the prices
ranging much better than year ago.
The free trade papers which were so
merry few weeks back are now silent
end 9lum. The farmers are getting
at least five cents pound more for
their wool than the free trade papers
were going to allow them and it is not
uniikel y that still better prices will be
paid before the season is over. The
anti-free trade papers are having their
fun now at the expense of their free
trade contemporaries. " Milwaukee

Changes. Ed11caxio11oi,
and Religious.


1t is almost marvellous to note the
great changes in the moral, religious
and educational condition of this
country, that have transpired during
d period in the memory of many
persons now living It is impossible
to contemplate without anxiety what
will be the great changes after as
long duration of time as that no.
ticed in this article. Great move
ments will continue to go forward as
in the past; but there need be no
alarm if this country remains at peace
with the world. The changes of the
past have been on the whole favor
able for a higher civilization, and
such it may be expected will be the
outcome of future changes. In re-
spect to general education, it is not
forty years ago when free schools
did not find favor in tire states of
the Union, outside Of New England.
This town furnishes an example of
the opposition of the people to free
schools years ago. In 1845 a law
was passed by the legislature Of
Wisconsin, allowing the legal voters
of this town to establish free
school, to be supported on taxable
property. By proviso of the law,
it was required to be submitted to
the people before being effective.
The law encountered strenuous op-
positions; it was declared deliberate
robbery to tax one mans property to
educate another mans children,
when he had none of his own to edu-
cate. The first meeting called to
vote on the adoption of the free
school law, broke up in confusion.
At the second trial the law was &C
copied by small majority 1t must
be stated here that the population of
the town was then composed almost
exclusively of American born people.
The then popular objection to the
principle of supporting free schools
passed away years ago and is forgot
ten. The whip and ferule, once re-
lied upon for the government and
order of schools, have gone out of
use. Church creeds have changed
and have been modified. The West
minister Confession Of Faith, which
had tolerance in the orthodox
churches half century ago, and
preached from pulpits, has been
dropped and no longer made the
theme for sermonizing. Preaching
