The Negro Problem.

The interest of the general government in
the education of the people found an carly
expression. not only in the thoughtful aud
sometimes warning u%ttcrances of our ablest
statesmen, but in liberal appropriations
from the common resources for the support
of education in the new states. No ono
will deny that it is of the gravest national
concern that those who hold the ultimate
control of oil public affairs should have the
intelligence necessary to direct and deter.
mine them. National mid to education has
heretofore taken the form of land grants,
and in that form the constitutional power Of
congress to promote the education of people
IL not seriously questioned. lido not
think 1t can be successfully questioned when
the form is changed to that of a direct
grant of money, from the. public
treasury. Such aid should be, us it always
has been, suggested, by some exceptional
slaves, the bestowal of the suffrage which
oon followed and the Impairment of the
ability of the states where these new citizens
were chiefly found to be adequately pro-
videa with educational facilities, presented
not only exceptional but unexnmpled condi-
tions. That the situation
HAS BEEN MUcH AMELIoRATED
there Is no doubt. The ability and interest
of the states have happily increased, but a
great work remains to be done, and I think
the general government should lend its aid.

shows m organization of the bureaus of the
department. that will, 1 do not doubt, pro
mote the efficiency of each. In general,
satisfactory progress has been made in the
construction of the new ships of war auth

new navy, the Dolphin, was subjected to
very severe trial tests and to very mucl, crit
icism. But it is gratifying to be able to
state. that a cruise around tho world, from
which she has recently returned, has dem

The reports of the secretary show that
while the effective force of the navy is rap
idly increasing by reason of the improved
build and armancpt of the new ships, the
number of our ships fit for sea duty grows
very slowly. We had OH the 4tll of March
last thirty seven serviccable ships, ana
though four have since been added to the

in the meantime four have been lost or con-

PURCHASE OF BuLL1oN,

The law requiring the purchase 10y the
treasury of $1,000. 600 worth of silver bullion
each month, to he coined into silver dollars
of 412ll22 grains, has been observed by the
department, but neither the present secre-
tary nor any of his predecessors has deemed
1T safe to exercise tho discretion given by
law to increase the monthly purchase 10
81. 100000. When the law was enacted deb
ruary %, 1879 the price of silver in the mar
ket was l20.4 cents per ounce, making the
bullion value of the dollar 93 cents. Since
that time the price has fallen as low as 30
cents per ounce. reducing the bullion value
of the dollar to 70.G cents. Within the last
few months the market price has somewhat
advanced, aud on the LIST day of November
last the bullion value of tho silver dollar
was " FONTS. The evil ~anticlpations which
have accompanied the coinage and use of
the silver dollar have not realized. AS a
coin it hus not had general use and the pub

A CASE IN POINT.

In our forefathers' days, pimples were a.
tributed to diseased blood. But modern
medicine has demonstrated that rich food
does not create eruptions by fouling the
blood, but retards digestion, which makes
the stomach torpid, and the circulation
sluggish, and in tur1 causes an enfeeblcd
action OF the pores which ccngcst or become
pimply. The modern theory therefore is not

and tits under this new idea, that Joys Ycge-
table Sarsaparilla was conceived. y is vip-

OUR exchanges announce a "boom'
in Astoria. There is a sboom" here
though not in the ordinary meaning
attached to that word; there is a real

still further in value, which it is sure
to do. But IN Astoria it is a natural
development instead of an artificial
creation.

Lent.

As Lent began on Tuesday, we consider the
following explanatory remaks as season ably
appropriate: The duration of Lent has not
always been uniform throughout the Christ
ian world as it is at present. Time was when
many of the faithful observed strict fast for
seventy days. The day on which they begun
to fast was called Septuagesima, or Seven
tieth day Others tasted for sixty.days, and
the fast begun on Sexagesima, or Sixtieth
Day. Others were satisfied with a fast of
fifty days and entered it on Quinquage sima,
or Fiftieth Day. In imitation of our Lord,
who, like Moses and Elias, tasted for forty
days. the Church has through many centuries
commanded the present fast, which was
called in Latin, Quadragesima. But as all of
these various periods of duration were pre-
paration for the glorious festival of Eas ter,
so the Church retains the name and the idea.
The third Sunday before Lent is called
Septuagesima; the next is called Sexagesim a,
and the Sunday Immediately preceding the
opening of Lent is known as Quinquagesi ma.
On these days the spirit of the Church is one
of penance. The Holy Mass is similar to the
mass on Sunday in Lent. The ''Gloria' is
omitted. The priest is clothed in violet,
which is the symbol of penance. The lessons
and prayers which are recited and sung are
conformable to the sorrowful period of LIE mt.
