New YORK, Sept. pa reporter for
the Commercial Advertiser having asked
ex President Cleveland for his opinion on
the action of several recent Democratic
State Conventions in approving the tariff
reform plank of the last National Demo
cratic Convention, Mr. Cleveland express
ed himself as much pleased with these
evidences that the attitude of the Demo
cratic party on this question was still
courageous, co sistent and aggressive.
He thought that the careful examina-
ton of the tariff question by the people
was bearing good fruit, and that all indi-
cations pointed to the triumph of the Dem
ocratic party's view of the subject.
He added ''If among those counted as
Democrats there are found timid souls,
not we'll grounded in the faith, who long
for fesh-pots, of vascillating shifts and
evasions, the answer to their fears should
be Party honesty is party expediency.'"

PUBLIC SCHOOLS IN THE SOUTH.

Extract from Report of the L. S. Commis-
sioner of EducatiOn.l
The increase of enrolment in the South
central section shows an excess over the
increase of population probably never be-
fore paralleled in country SO long set
tied. Since 1S76-77, the increase OF en-
rollment in the public schools of the
South has been SO per cent. In regard to
the value of statistics exhibiting the con-
says their usefulness is greatly impaired
by want of uniformity in the work of the
different States. Their sentiment in favor
of free schools supported by public fund,
is becoming each year more universally
prevalent. The public school systems of
the Southern States have been undergo
ing an unprecedented development under
laws adapted in each case to local circum-
stances, and are now practically all estab-
lishe1 on a permanent basis. Colored
children are apportioned an equal share
of the school funds Except In the case of
Delaware), and their sch OILS are kept
open as long and under as well-paid
teachers as those of the white children.
TIE funds for the support of these
schools are furnished mainly by tine white
inhabitants, and after making due allow
ance for all the sums that have been fur
nished for the education of the negroes
through private sources of benevolence
and through taxes raised by themselves,
it may we'll be said that the children of
those once held in servitude in the South
are being educated by the sons of their
former masters.
The conditions affecting public educa-
tion in the South, the report says, make
it necessary to maintain two separate
school systems. Their population is made
up of two distinct races and colors. The
statistics show that "a per cent. of the
white population of school age are en-
rolled, while but So per cent. of the col
ored population of school age are enrolled.

The Size of Heaven.

The twenty first chapter of Revelations
gives the measurement. The most inter-
esting calculation on the subject is that of
Captain j. B. Sharkley, a measurer OF
vessels in the Boston custom-house. He
takes the statement in Revelation xxi, and
figures it out thus: ''And he measured
the city with the reed $4,000 furlongs
The length and the breadth and the height
are equal Twelve thousand furlongs
7,92O,O feet cubed-497, 793, ,OSs, ,00O,- :
900, 900, 900 feet. Reserving one-half of
this space for the throne and court of
Heaven, and one-half of the remainder for
streets, we have 1874, 1893 273 zoo, 900, 600, :
900 rooms. We will suppose the world al
ways did and always will contain 9OO,-
OO0. 900 inhabitants and that generation
lasts 311 years, making in all 2,970. 600, :
900 every century, and that the world will
stand l, 900, 900 years or 10000 centuries,
90, 700, 600, 100 inhabitants. Now, suppose
there are 100 worlds like this, equal in the
number of inhabitants and duration of
wears, a total of 2, ,970, ,OO0, ,OOO, ,OO0, 900 per-
sons, there would be more than 100 rooms
1e feet square for each and every person.
