KESSEBrs SPEECH.

/ Washington, sept 1.-THE speech
Of Representative Kennedy. of Ohio
attacking the Senate and Senator
Quay. which created 4 sensation when
delivered ten days ago, appeared in
the Congressional Record this morn
ing after having been revised by Mr..
Kennedy The speech as it appears in
the Governments official publication
Of tie proceedings Of Congress differs
from the speech as originally delivered,
in the elimination Of certain passages
which. il has been asserted, were eon-
trary to parliamentary rules and
usages.
The revised speech is hardly less
severe than as originally delivered, but
it is believed by the Congressman
flom Ohio to be now in conformity
with the rules of the House governing
criticisms in debate of the other
branches of the Legislature. The first
part Of the speech, which was devoted
to the Federal election bill is un-
changed. Coming down to the attack
upon the Senate, no change is made in
that part re,erring 10 the high charac-
ter and standing of Webster, Clay,
Fessenden and Wade.
Then after declaring that Ohio has
twice within decade been disgraced
by Senators chosen simply because
they were able to outbid other con-
testants,7 there is this sentence !;
~Surely the cloak OF Senatorial
courtesy has been used to hide the in
fanny and the corruption which has
dishonored and disgraoed a body
which was once the proudest In the
land.n
This is the only reference to the
~cloak of Senatorial courtesy" all that
part declaring that Senatorial courtesy
had become a stencil in the nostrils of
the people and cloak TO cover up in.
famies being omitted. The only
changes made so far as Senator Quay
is concerned consists In the elimination
of the word "criminal,' where il occurs
in two places, and the omission Of all
mention Of Senator Quay by name.
Where 1t was suggested in the original
speech that Judas, when he hanged
himself, had left San example for the
Matt Quays that Is worthy Of their
imitation there is substituted there
for the following: can example

The sentence: "The Republican

The Old Adam.


II is told of q good old fashioned
parson in one Of the hill towns OF
western Massachusetts that he gave
the following advice to his son, who
was about to come to New York to
begin business career; "My son, OF
course IL is always wicked to fight,
and as Christian minister ! must
warn you against it. But at the same
time If you should ever find yourself
in iight-mind, say, find yourself
in fight, with no way out-always
SEQ that the right man Is whipped"
"But, father" replied the lad, chow
shall | know who is the right man Y
"The other man, OF course said the
old gentleman. ain every crisis Of life
something must be taken for granted.
aud In fight you must always assume
that the other fellow deserves TO be
thrashed." This advice, similar in
spirit to that given by Shakespeare,
indicates that there may be good
deal of unregcncratc human nature
even in II quiet country parson-New

A PEsslMisTIc RevERY.

b. . y
I'd like to take Journey hence
To other worlds, for here in fact,
Nature seems short OF common sense
And painfully devoid of tact.
Her loves and griefs, her joys and pains
Mix up In such q reckless way,
That which the losses are or gains,
No reasoning mind can clearly say.
The things she does and leaves undone,
Her curious use OF good and bad,
Would really be no end of fun
Only it happens to be sad.
The pains and evils she contrivcs
Appear to make her feel elate;
And then, her spite at human lives
Is something strange to contemplate.
That gravitation's hideous laws
Should earth's fair atmosphere disgrace,
And yet the earth be safe because
'Tis poised aloft in airy space;
That half our life is given to sleep;
That not to eat is certain death,
And that alive we can not keep
Without the constant aid OF breath;
Why, these facts, 50 outrageous seem
That when ponder them shake
Myself and say: This is dream;
1surely can not be awaken ar
Alas am. My grief Is this, .
That I'm too wideawalSe by far,
And hence my yearning project is
To seek some other sphere or star.
But then, on second thought, perhap
I'd better stay and calmly wait,
Because when years enough elapse, :
III have to so at any rate. 4

STUDY OF ENGLISH.

How to Extend the Acquaintance of Stu
dents with Standard Literature.
Critical study of English is still mos
infrequent in our preparatory schools.
It is not always the fault Of the crowded
curriculums Too often the teacher has
little prehension of the inspiration
and beauty OF language. Literature is
still to many girls and boys dry SUBJ
ject to be got through in prescribed
number of hours. Reading and writing
are the last enemies to be overcome, OF
to be lodged as one may, instead Of the
best and simplest friends one can have,
to be grappled to the soul with hoops of
custom and continuing habit. The work
of preparation in English at the Cam
bridge school, where girls are fitted for
Harvard studies, is complete .and inter-
esting, full of suggestion for students
and for teachers of literature. The
object has been to create an appre-
citation of English writings as an ex-
preston of life, rather than as an
illustration of literary forms. Each
literary work as it has been taken up
has been prefaced by careful study of
the life and contemporaries of it's author.
Editions without notes, except in the
case of Chauoer and Shakespeare, have
been used, in order to give the pupils
the pleasure and the profit of discover
ing for themselves the beauties and
other traits of the writer's works, and
of exercising their own Judgment in
respect to them. The exercises in the
class room have consisted in the ex-
preston of individual thought regard
ing the reading done by the pupils in
private.
The work in reading has been made
q means of extending the acquaintance
of the pupils with literature. Their at.
tention has been'directed to the life and
literary personality Of the authors.
The attempt has not been made to pro-
duce readers, but the aim has rather
been to cultivate the old-fashioned
art of reading aloud. 1t is al
most a forgotten art in the null
tiplicity of schools of reading. BY
the modern methods sof teaching
there are more boys and girls: now
than formerly who can write good,
straightforward letter or a short and
simple description OF something seen.
But there are few who read aloud with
intelligence and with charm. The
teaching of English in the Cambridge
school for girls is of high quality, tits
in line with the most advanced thought
: st Harvard concerning the teaching of
English as a source of high culture and
fine discipline. There is no danger that
in the preparatory schools for boys or
for girls the teashing Of English will be
overdone. Willis it is pleasure t
know. shat a student has fine attain
mehts in mathematics or the classics,
there Is immediate satisfaction in the
culture Ola young person who can read
1nderstandingly our own poets, and his
torians and noyelists and essayists, and
write out q suitable expression Of the
enjoyment and its sources in good,
pleasant English sentences. Boston

perfect darkness and crawled into bed
But he could not sleep. That unlucky
noise had rendered HIM feyerish. The
thought OF burglars had destroyed his
serenity of mind. His revolver lay on a
chair by the bedside. and he kept his
hand on it for some time. The weapon
seemed to whisper to him: Peace,
Durston; go to sleep, my child. 1 will
not go off until the burglar comes
This assuranceon the part Of the pis-
tol quoted Durston somewhat and he
was beginning to feel very sleepy again
when he heard light step on the
stairs. There was no mistake about it.
After keeping sullenly aloof for years
Durston's burglar had come at last. At
first our bachelor felt a cold chi1Ecreep-
ing up his spinal column. Then. as the
burglar carefully stole through the hall
and entered tho library, Durston was
astonished to realize that he was lying
in bed with a pistol in his hand, a house
blnAkcr IN the next room, and that he
