a more commanding position than Glib

Among the beneficial results foreseen
are more practical drawing together
OF the remote parts of the vast domain
OF the world aud n firmer cohesion of
the widely-sepsrated sections of the
United States, added to a stronger feel
ing of neighborhood and community
between the Atlantic and Pacific sea-
boards. The contamination of the
work, whose feasibility has already
been demonstrated, is asserted to be OF
far greater Importance to the western
hemisphere than the Suez canal Is to
the eastern. II is said that no prece-
dent can be cited upon which TO pre-
dict the future of American commerce
when the gateway of the lnter-0ce anic
canal across Nicaragua shall be open
to it.
PRELIMINARY WORK ACCOMPLISHED.
All surveys and examination of strata
requiring removal have been COM
pleted. The jetty has been con-
structed and the harbor OF Grevtown
has been restored SO that vessels of
fourteen feet draft have an easy en-
trance. Extensive wbarves, landing
places and permanent buildings have
been constructed, temporary camps
erected, telegraph line made, the
canal cleared of timber for twenty
miles, and railroad twelve miles in
length constructed and equipped. The
biggest dredging plant in America,
that formerly used at Panama, has
been purchased, and over a mile of the
canal has been dredged. The exclusive
franchise for the steam navigation of
San Juan river and Lake Nicaragua
and an extensive plant for the naviga-
ton company have been acquired. The
government of Nicaragua has acknowl-
edged that the company has complied
with the canal grant, which provided
that $4,000, 900 must be expended the
first year. 1t is shown that the amount
of money spent to date on the enter
prise is over Sc 600, 900. The enterprise
is Endorsed by the leading business men
of the country, and that it will be ju-
diciously and economically managed is
assured by the character of the board
of directors, who, by the charter of the
company, are accountable to the gov
eminent of the United States. The
secretary of the interior has the power
to make public all the details of the
corporate management, thus protect
ing the investor against misuse of his
money
The Suez canal, it is shown, saves
only 5000 miles around the Cape of
Good Hope, as against over 10000 miles
saved by the Nicaragua canal; and the
following table shows the number of
ships passing through, the net tonnage
and the gross receipts of the Suez canal
for six separate years:

A Rainy Day Marriage.

1t was pouring hard, and a certain
minister not long since filling one of
our city pulpits settled himself for an
afternoon OF sermonizing. Suddenly
there came sharp ring at the bell.
On opening the door n gentleman and
lady. both in ordinary apparel and
much the worse for the storm, stepped
into the hall.
"Say, parson, we want to be spliced
don't we, Mary?'
Mary nodded coolly, as II the splicing
process were a matter of supreme in
difference to her.
You see, parson," continued the
prospective bridegroom, 1--WE didn't
have work in the mill to-day and we
wanted TO get in the time, and sc
| told Mary we might as well be spliced
to-day as any time. Mary said her
clothes wasn't fit, but told her they'd
do for a rainy day."
He had his license, and so, choking
back her indignant query II he didn't
know il was the custom for lady To
set the wedding day, the parsons wife
acted as witness and the two were
spliced. -Lewistown (Me.) Journal.

lions until each new idea is clearly

small numbers; by analysis; by
a practical application in the school
room and out of the school-room of

The subject is divided into the ex-

the use of numbers, as in the combln-

relations, as in fractions and ratio;
the application of numbers, as in

An educated person is said to be one
who can see conditions, think out
conclusion and express it to others.
The teacher can do but three things
for any child: Present the occasion
for his learning; direct his activity;
and stimulate to the highest exercise
of his powers.
The four steps for the teacher and

should be taught: For recognition, for

lens pupils should read intelligently;
indicate relations; diagram, illustrate;
