what she taught them, and what she
taught was the foundation OF all
knowledge. She used 10 say: III
can secure the undivided attention
OF child for five minutes each day
| can train his mind 10 acquire any
kind OF knowledge She had no
kindergarten ideas in her system
Mental discipline was her aim, and
she hit the mark. A child who had a
mind was taught in her little class
TO think and TO study, not to play and
call it learning. Madame Audubon
was a wonderful woman, and when
after her death far away in Kentucky
her body was brought TO be laid with
her kindred in the tomb at Trinity
cemetery, | preached sermon in
memory OF her which A. d. F. Ran
mon published, under the title "A
Noble Life" Her son, Victor, died
August II, 1860 and John hardly
two years later. Both Inherited the
fondness OF their father for natural
history, were keen sportsmen, and
had a fine taste for art. John under
took the republication of his fathers
works, the famous gallery OF life-size
birds being reproduced in litho-
graphic engravings. The civil war
broke up the sale of this elaborate
work, embarrassed the author, and
added to other troubles, brought him
to a premature death. But the fami-
lies, though deprived of their heads,
had lived honorable and independent,
as teachers and authors, maintaining
the record of their ancestor and proud
of his growing fame. One of the
descendants, Miss Maria Audubon,
a daughter OF John w., has just given
to the world fresh memoir of her
grandfathers, in two large volumes
This book is the result of careful
searches among old manuscripts, in
the hiding places which cabinet
makers constructed in the furniture
OF the past century, in family col
lections and among forgotten treas
ures. Miss Audubon's patience and
perseverance have been richly re-
warded. She has brought to light
journals, and sketches and writings
from the prolific pen and deft pencil
of her ancestor, and arranged them in
these volumes for the instruction, en-
tertainment and inspiration OF a
new generation of readers.
This book recalls some personal in
cidents which are not without inter
est. When the civil war ended,
family in the south whose fortunes
had been reduced, applied to me to
sell for them an original subscription
copy of Audubon's birds. 1t needed
one volume OF the explanatory text,
and this Madame Audubon kindly
supplied, so that | was able to place
this valuable work in the Brooklyn
historical society, and to forward a
handsome price to the impoverished
southerners. Some years afterward
made unavailing efforts to sell the
original copper plates of the great
work to publisher, but could find
no purchaser in this country, and was
reluctantly compelled to dispose OF
them for Madame Audubon to a we'll
known house in the metal business TO
be melted into copper bars; and so
the drawings of the great naturalist
now exists only in the comparatively
few copies of his work which are
scattered over the civilized world in
public and private libraries.-Augu

-Four stacks of poker checks and

A case for Immedinte Pardon.

The New York Mail and Express calls
up the case Of John d. Hart, an Ameri-
can sea captain who is now serving a
twO-year sentence of Imprisonment in
the eastern pententiary Of Pennsylva-
mia under conviction for leading a fill
clustering expedition to the island of
Cuba in violation Of our neutrality laws.
This is one of many instances where
people have to be punished unjustly in
order to preserve the form OF law. There
have been many cases where convictions
were had because the law had to be en-
forced as an orderly proceeding and for
the general welfare, on the principle
that it is better that one should suffer
temporarily than that all should be sub
iected to danger Of permanent injury
Eut in most such cases, when the mat
ter was afterwards taken up executive
clemency interposed and released the
unfortunate persons.
This case Of Captain Hart Is one in
point, for, as the paper above quoted
justly says, the government of the
United States is now doing precisely
what he did Morally it is just as
guilty as he Is, and in both cases the
guilt is a badge of herOism.
The Mail and Express speaks the SEN
timent of the country when it says that
Captain Hart ought to be granted an i'm
mediate pardon by the President Of the
United States with full restoration of his
rights as citizenship Yes, and let him
be again placed in command of men
who, like himself, are ready to face dan
ger in the cause of human freedom.

Miller Wins in the Fourth.

The Fourth district Republican con-
ventiOn has nominated J. NJ. Miller, of
Council Grove, for Congress. His victory
came on the thirteenth ballot. The fight
began with the following as the result
of the first ballot: Miller, 35; Pipp, 80;
Dean, %; Lamb, q; Tracy, l6. When
the fifth ballot was taken Miller had
gained three from Lamb. A recess was
taken of an hour on motion of Deans
manager. The first ballot after the re-
cess showed gain of eight for Miller
anu one for Pipp, the other three candi-
dates having lost, Lambs loss being five
There was no material change until the
twelfth ballot. The Lyon delegation,
which had divided its votes to maintain
harmonious relations with all of the can
dldates in Hoods interest, dropped
Tracy. On the thirteenth the general
break came. All went to Miller but Pot
tawatOmie, which voted for Tracy, as
usual. Miller's friends were greatly elat-
ed. Speeches were made by all of the
candidates except Tracy, who hau dis
appeared. Banker VIM. Martindae was
made chairman OF the central commit
tee. The platform is of the usual sort
with few exceptions 1t reaflirms the
