Soma time since Commissioner of
Pensions, lilck,sked Miss Ads Sweet,
pension agenv st Chicago, to resign
Miss Ads thought she wss entirely too
"sweet' to be stked to resign by
oruel, oruel man, so she flatly refused,
but when the investigations set on foot
by Commissioner Blsek disolosed the
fact that there were between 000 and
600 namss on the pension list at that
agenoy that wore fraudulently kept on
after the pensioners bad died, Miss
Sweet soured on the whole flair and
gladly sent in her resignation. Com
missioner Black evidently had his eyes
open when he ssked her to resign. The
commissioner hss appointed Mrs.
Msrion Mulligan, widow of Col. Mul
ligan, who was killed at Lexington,
Me., during the wsr. Our readers
things said by Republican papers when
Miss Sweet flatly refused to resign.
We suppose thst whstever they msy
ssy, (they will ssy but little though,)
about her resignation, will be words of
the sour kind.
VI ILL I IIL
The effort which monometslists are
getting ready to make when Congre
meet, to repeal the law authorizing
the ooinsge of silver, and to repeal the
law making silver a legal tender, will,
we have no doubt. Drove a failure. It
,
IS a rnat:er worthy of note that evei
since, the passage of the act lemonetii
iog silver and the act anthorizing its
linage, the administration at Wash
iogton has been hostile to th"s mess
urea. The present administration see oik
to be following in the footsteps of its
predecessors, with the exception thst
Mr. Manning seems to be making some
efforts to circulate stiver while former
sdministrations threw obstacles in the
wav of its circulation. If these lass
should be repealed, the greenback party
would very soon become strong enough
to carry the country, if no other means
were provided to supply currency to re
place the silver thus demonetised.

Tiie Sooth hss taken to the saddle
apparently to stay. In nearly all of
the cotton growing states the advices
indicate an unusually large crop and it
is thought the total yield will be much
larger than was previously announced.
While this goes on of course there can't
be any very widespread peace, but at
least the South can rest assnred that
by far the largest portion of Northers
people will obeer it on in its most
serious intentions to outdo all previous
efforts.
The New York Times, (Iod. Rep.)
says that ths independents will not fol
low tfce lead of Hoar and Sherman:
Nomioatiens, which represent nothing
better nor worse thsn Hoar's ideas of
Republicanism, coupled with the plat
form utterances such as a Republican
convention inspired and managed by
that pre-Adamite gentlemen will be
very apt to adopt, would drive thous
ands of Massachusetts independents to
thesuppoit of any respectable Demo
cratic ticket.
The Russian Government hss issued
a decree making the Greek church the
established religion of the Baltic prov
inces. Protestanism will only be tol

gieat discontent amoug the German

John Sherman, of Ohio, has made a

spirit of sectional hate than the one

fiery portions were published in the

A terrific cyclone visited Washing

John Edwards at North Yamhill and

Rev. Moses. A Hopkins, (colored,)

WHAT SHALL TKAC'BKIa TKA'HT
This is the e.ioU when most of the
public schools open up the fall tonus,
ud we regard it as a favorable and op
portune time to call attention to one
subject connected with the teaoher s
work which demands consideration.
The question is, shall these schools be
run along in the old grooyw of mere
mental discipline, sad mental develop
ment to the entire exclusion t moral
discipliae and the development of the
mors I faculties of ths young t Hereto
fore most teachers seemed to conceive
it to be their duty only to trudge along
in the old beaten paths of former sges
wherein they simply teach what is
taught in the text-book uiterh ignoring
the moral training which forms so im
portant and vital an element in the
make-up of a model citizen. A rigid
adherence to the text-book, to them,
baa seemed the some of their profession,
and so far as the subjects taught in
them is concerned, this may not be con
troverted. But there are lessons of
love of truth, honesty, sobriety snd pa
triotism, which do do not find thoir text
in the text books, but which grow out
of the circumstances of the daily rou
tine work of the teacher. Here is the
occasion where the teacher must teaoh
without a text-book. These duties, we
are sorry to say, are too often neglected
by the teacher. These teachers seem
to think thst more mental training will
make boys and girls what they ought
to be, while, in truth, it otten makes
them just what they ought not to be
qualifies them to successfully csrry out
the purposes of an evil heart. Take a
ooy who is vicious in his every day
walk, whe has no regard for truth, who
ems to have none of the germs of
honesty implanted in his nsture, who
carea nothing for obedience to law, and
give him that exhaustive mental train
ing and discipline which many boys re
ceive in school, and be is only the bet
ter piepared to successfully disregard
the truth to the great detriment and
injury cf some of his follows. He is
simply better qualified to follow up his
vicious practices and escpe their pen
alties, than he was before he was made
the recipient of this mental training,
tie is aimply made more able to disobey
all liwsaud tecaps the pcna!ties of
such diaobedienc. Hence, it will lie
nt n that such a boy hss received no
'leoefh from his mental training, so
that tb.- second ea'ate of that boy is
worse than the firt. A boy may thus
oecome great in overtowering intellect
but be destitute ef true greatness be
cause he is destitute of thoao qualities
of truth, honesty, virtue and patriotism
hich constitute true greatness. Ia
order that the education ot the youth
should be complete, the foundation for
a strong, firm, moral character should
be laid as soon as the child enters
school. Let us look about us and see
if we can aot detect results of our de
fective system of education on all sides.
See how prevalent crime is. Go to
nearly any town or village in the North
west aid you will find a half dozen or
more of characterless individuals who
are under the ban of having committed
some crime against the law of the lend.
They are constantly under the surveil
lance of police officers. They are a
standing menace to the peace and quiet
of the neighborhood in which they live.
These are they whose education was
sadly neglected in their younger days.
What ever training they received was
mere meatsl development. They were
not admonished day by day, that truth,
sobriety, honesty snd virtue are tbo
peculiar and essential characteristics of
a good man and a good citizen. Hence,
their lives are wasted. The time and
expense devoted to their education are
more than wasted. Crime and vice
prevail all over the land. Many peo
ple think they abound more than in the
earlier days of the country. Tho ques
tion arises, how is it that progress has
been made in nearly every direction ex
cept in the repression of crime. You
cm not resd a uewspapor that does not
contain an account of a murder, a rob
bery or other crime. Why is it- so to
such an alarming extent? We have
no hesitation in declaring that much of
it springs from defective education. It
would be of far greater benefit to the
public, as well ss to school children, if
half the school hours were devoted to
developing the moral natures of pupils.
Instilling a love for truth, honesty and
sobriety would be of far greater benefit
than more mental culture. We hope
teachers will duly and carefully consider
this subject and we feel sure they will
act upon the suggestions above.

lawyer of Chicago, is dead.

Yesterday afternoon about throe o'clock,

tho barge it upoei, throwing tho men Into
tbo water. They wore immediately uck

about 100 foot below. Tbe Udo waa goiug
out like a mill race, and It looked aa if
there waa no help for tho men who struck
out and battled manfully for their Uvea,
the Ude carrying thorn swiftly down. Mr
Foeteraad another man leaped into a
boa which was baotily lowered from the
wharf end wont to their assistance. It was
a race for life, hot the rescuers wore equal
to it and reached the men before they
were entirely exbauated, they being then
some three hundred yards below the
wharf. In a few momenta both weie
hauled aboard. Ho great waa tho faros of
tba ude thai It waa found Impnasnbto to

his companion landed on ths beach about
a quarter of a mile below tbo barge.

Hot Bread Made Wholesome.
The Royal Baking Powder possesses a peculiar merit that
is not possessed by any other leavening agent. It provides
bread, biscuit, cake, muffins, or rolls which may bo eaten
when hot without inconvenience by persons of the most deli
cate digestive organs. With most persons it is necessary
that bread raised with yeast should lose its freshness or
become stale before it can be eaten with safety. The same
distressing results follow from eating biscuit, cake, pastry,
etc., raised by the cheap, inferior baking powders that contain
lime, alum, or other adulterants. The hot roll and muffin,
and the delicious hot griddle cakes, raised by Royal Baking
Powder, are as wholesome and digestible as warm soup, meat,
or any other food.
Another greatly superior 'quality possessed by the Royal
Baking Powder is that by which the preservation of im
portant elements of tho flour is effected in raising the bread
by mechanical operation of the gas without. fermentation.
Yeast, and all baking powders that produce tho leavening
gas by fermentation, as is well known, destroy a portion of
the nutritive elements of the flour, and particularly those
which are the most healthful and the greatest aids to a
perfect assimilation of the food. The Royal Baking Powder,
while perfectly leavening, retains without change or impatr
ment all those elements which were intended by nature, when
combined in our bread, to make it literally the " staff of life."
No leavening agent or baking powder, except the Royal
Baking Powder possesses these great qualifications.
