Afghanistan in Asia i3 soon to he brought under tiie civilizing agencies of railways, as the Eng lish government is fast pushing their svstem of raihvajs in India into Afghanistan. The Michigan commissioners have ascertained that of the 00, S )S farms in that state, 43,070 are carrying 55 to GO per cent, of their assessed value in moitguges and pay more interest in taxes. The calamities of the Chinese nation seem to increase on the ratio of the decrease of their national strength and industry. Another break has occurred in the Yellow river of such dimension and causing such an overflow that repair and reclamation seem almost impossible. It is said that the tires of the country, not including the forest lires, burnt up property valued at $130,000,0 )0. Statistics show this to be the largest loss ever experi enced in one year in tne United States, excepting the two years that witnessed respectively the Chicago and the Boston fires. 'Mexico is said to be negotiating a loan from Germany of $52,000, 000 upwn the strength of friendship with that nation, but the proba bilities are that Germany has a secret inkling that Mexico will make a very fair country for colonization purposes, and a $52, 000,000 mortgage on the country will be of considerable advantage in that direction. The decision of Judge Ii. S. Bean, in the circuit court at Cor vallis, sustaining the demurrer that throws the M. E. Church South vs. the State Agricultural college out of court, wiil be sus tained by the people, and it is to be hoped will settle the case and the trouble from the Agricultural college which has hung over it like an incubus tor some time. A kailkoad engineer upon a line of railroad entering the state of Alabama was arrested for not f iking out. a license under tl e laws of the state. He appealed the case to the United States supreme court, on the plea that the national constitution gives the power to congress to regulate in terstate commerce. The supreme ourt decides that the law is bind ins and sustains the statute of the state of Alabama. "Bringing coals to Newcastle" is illustrated with a vengeance, it the following from a Scotch agri cultural paper is true : "An enor mous quantity of potatoes are just now being shipped from the Clyde to the United States, owing to the failure of the potato crop in Amer ica. Some idea of the quantity mav be gathered from the fact that the State of Georgia was unable to take the full amount placed on the quav for her, and that the anchor liner Furnessia takes 1,200 tons to-day. The freight, we under stand, is 17s (id, but 20s is now quoted. If, as is expected, the duty on potatoes is removed when the rearrangement of the new tariffs is made by the American government, the result will be that there will be a iko:-- regular and probably greater business done between this coimUy and Amer ica. The import mce of tHs to the agriculturist is very great." Certainly the great American re public ought to raise "spuds" enough to feed her people, and American farmers will not relish having the duty taken off trom potatoes, so that Scotch farmers can take in the profits and leave them out. m the cold. Too much cannot be said upon jthe importance of maintaining the - public schools; they form the foundation of our national exist ence and the glorious principles of liberty that distinguishes our gov ernment from all others. One of j the dangers that threatens the public school system is the inces sant and untiring efforts on the part of zealous advocates of re ligious beliefs to have some recog nition of religion introduced by special text books or religious in structions. The New York Sun says: "In a country like this, where there is no state church, and where not even Christianity is recognized as a state religion, it seems to be impossible to logically and justly enforce any sort of re ligious teaching in schools sup ported by general taxation. If, therefore, the different churches regard such teaching as an impera tive necessity apparently the only course for them to take is to set up schools of their own. But then would come up among Protestants also the question which has been raised by the Catholics, as to whether the state can rightly com pel people to contribute to the support of schools of whose in struction they disapprove ; and the permanance of the whole public school svstem would be endan gered. It is a problem of tremen dous difficult-, and the more it is discussed the greater its difficulty appears." lio.vever much that difficulty may loom up it must be met, for as before observed enthu siasts will constantly push the matter to the front, and the only solution would seem to be to en tirely droj the subject of religious teaching in the public schools. Their safety demands such a course. liUK.V. HAUkls". To the wire cf Geo. Harris in this city on Tuesday, Jan. 31, a daughter. MARRIED. Jotl.SSU.V YOL'NG.
