bones and brain, infinitely more deleteri-
GUS than an irregular walk, and to this
regular repitition of the shock to the same

Mississippi is perhaps not generally
thought of as great State for schools, yet
in Governor Stones message he says the
school system of the State has been grow
ing in importance and efficiency, until to-
day it is claimed upon good authority that
only one State in the Union has a larger
number of teachers employed in public
schools in proportion to it's population
than Mississippi" During the past two
years more than 700 school buildings have
been erected, "many of them eapacious
and costly buildings." Nearly every city
or town in the State with population
reaching 1000 maintains a public school
for eight or nine months in the year. in
addition to which many high schools have
sprung up, Tho governor concludes his
remarks on the subject as follows: "Our
public school system continues to grow in
favor, the schools in most of the counties
are prospering, and their increased eficien-
cy is stimulating the efforts to build up
high schools. Our public school law is re-
garded as good one, and the few changes
needed viii be embraced in the draft of laws
submitted by the commissioners.

From the Boston Record-l
The recent death of T. o. n. P. Burn
ham recalls the following anecdote: Mrs.
Theodore Parker, walking out one fine day,
turned from Washington into School street,
when she noted a crowd of men and boys
massed in force opposite the city hall. As
she approached it, abe found that it was TO-
cused upon the entrance to Mr.. Burnham's
antique bookstore.
Mrs Parker became greatly interested to
know the cause of this unwonted aggrega-
ton, the more SO as she discried the famil-
lar form and features, the out-of-s style silk
hat, and other unmistabsbls personalities
of the antiquary. But what could be the
matter9 Was he about to be mobbeda 1t
did not look like that, and yet he seemed
to be struggling in gravitude to the vicini-
ty of the ancient book store, and, as things
were going, force of policemen would
soon be required to break the blockade
This lady and her distinguished husband
were among Mr.. Burnhsm's personal and
particular friends, and she was naturally
concerned for his welfare. In a minute or
| two she was in the center of this impromp-
| tn army of occupation; ;but all she could see
| of special interest was Mr.. Burnham jab-
bing the end of his cane into the ground!

Charles I.,s sxecuIion-A Lady Diar-
ist,s Account.

(From the Pail Mall Gazette.
The autographs in the collection of the
late Mr.. Larkin will be dispersed under
the hammer early in the new year at Sothe-
by's, and among them is very remarkable
and quaint diary of lady noting events in
the troublous period of the great rebellion
which eliminated in the execution of
Charles I. Here is an extract about the
famous event of January 30: January
19th.-The army brought the king from
Winsor to ST. James, a prisoner. He was
brought to tryall at Westminster by act of
the house of commons, and sentenced to be
beheaded, which on the Both, being Tues
day, was done on Scaffold near the Ban
quoting house between one and two o'clock
in the afternoon. When he was on the
scaffold fite of wild ducks came and flew
over till his head was cut off. Then they
flew away, and drack (drake) first stoop-
