Nothing indicates better the
growth and popularity of free
institutions, under a wise repub-
lican administration of the gov
eminent, than the enormous in
crease in: schools and colleges
during the last decade, and the
influx of pupils of both sexes,
all anxious to secure the best
education. Within ten years in
Pennsylvania, the attendance at
colleges has doubled; standards
have been raised and courses of
studies heightened; the number
of high schools has risen from
1872 to $50: the normal schools
have been filed to over flowing,
and in many instances palatial
structures have taken the place
Of old-fashioned school houses.
The state now has in its schools
1, POO, $50 pupils, who are edu-
Gated by 80, 225 teachers. What
is true of the progress of edu-
cation in the Key Stone state is
largely true Of all other states.

lowed the example of his uncle, the
first Napoleon, in marrying Josephine,
the creole beauty and heroine, whose
history is a romance full of interest
and pathos.
After three years of imperial we'd

brilliant expectations regarding the

powerful nation in Europe. There was
no Germany except a federation of
petty principalities, with Austria at
the head. England and Russia made
no claim to recedence of empire. From
1853 to 1870 Paris was the most bril-

Eugene was the leader of the society
of Europe, formed the MANNERS. set
the fashion in dress, was the model of
polite usages and was acknowledged as
the queen of the social kingdom, which
had no lines bounded by nationalities.
She adorned and Illuminated this splen-

was admired, not envied, by other Eu-

With the defeat of France by Ger
