EDUCATION IN ENGLAND.
Great Progress in Learning Has BecD
Made in the Last Fifty
Years.

But what of the mass of the people?
what is education, or what passes for
such, doing for them? 1t is more than
so years since in England the first
faint-hearted steps were taken by the
state toward the instruction of its cit
izens-a duty up to that time aban-
doned to private enterprise and the
strife OF religious parties. 1t is nearly
30 years since the nation, in the educa-
tion act of 1870, for the first time set it's
hand to manage its own schools and in
augusated a partially national system
of education. The schoolmaster has
since been abroad throughout the
land with the result that al.
most everyone can read and write,
and the entry "his" or her mark" in
marriage register, once almost the
rule, is now rare exception.
BY slow degrees, through many fail
ures anT mistakes, in spite of political
and theological obstruction, our edu-
cational authorities have evolved
system of elementary instruction
which on paper leaves little to be de-
sired. We have, in fact, the raw ma
terial for first rate system of ma
tional education, and all that is want
eG, in the words of a recent writer on
he subject, is to make it national aud
to make it educational. How this is to
be done we Go not now inquire. But it
is worth while to ask what has been or
is being done-what is the effect of
all this ed rational activity upon the
intellectual tastes and recreations of
the people?
Our iaborer or artisan is not yet a
literary or even a cultivated person,
nor is it either likely that he will be, or
necessary that he should be. But edu-
cation is slowly widening his intel
lcctual horizon and giving him a few
sips of the Pierian spring. The ma
chinery for giving him such menta cul.
tivation as he is capable of is all there.
and only needs to be more intelligently
applied, and FOR a longer period. When
more enlightened public opinion. and
the influence and example of his en-
ployers and social superiors point the
way, he may begin to see that it is
worth his while to continue learning
after he is IL or 13 years old. He is
now the dominant factor in politics.
His vote can make and unmake minis
tries. Statesmen of whatever political
party must give or profess to give him
what he wants.-Literature.

these caught the eye of one of the
ghouls. lie grabbed, hold of foot of
the wounded man to pull the boot off,
and dozen of us shouted at lHm. He
did not pause, however, but worried the
boot off. Then as he weut for the other,
we all heard the federal crying out:
'Don't-for Gods sake. don't! Can't
you see that I'm badly hurt, and that
you'll finish me!'"
''The brute! He ought to have been
shot down." exclaimed. the listeners in
chorus.
LAS he pulled on the boot" said the
narrator, "he pulled the groaning,
shrieking man along the ground. OF a
sudden he dropped the foot. picked up 4
musket with fixed bayoret and, lifting
it high up, he pinned the poor victim
to the earth. War never saw more
brutal act. We all cried out against
it, but the Georgian did more. He
turned on his face, dragged himself
forward feet feet, and picked up 4
lazy revolver. Then, resting the
weapon across the dead body Of one
Of his own regiment he sent bullet
square between the shoulders of the
ranger and dropped him dead in his
tracks-dTopped him dead with the
boot clutched in his hands. There was
shout of approval from every body
even from the rangers comrades-and
there was no further attempt to molest
us. Half dozen of us crawled up to
the man, and we found that the bayonet
had passed through the tieshy part of
his thigh only, but he was SO securely
pinned to the earth that it took US ten
minutes TO extricate him. We passed
along a lot of the muck from hand to
hand and applied it to his fresh wound.
and after time we checked the bleed
ing. He was picked up with the rest
