The gain in population in the United •dates Irom 1800 to 1800 was 128 per •ent. and in the school enrollment 11 15 per cent. There are said to be over 23,000 In­ dians in the United States wdio can read Knglisli and over 10,000 who can read Indian languages. Northw estern University at Evanston, 111., lias follow, d the example of Cornell and abolished the barbarous cane rush between the freshmen and sophomores. The schoolmaster is going to be abroad in England more than ever. The lzin- don School Board is educating 20,8,10 more scholars now than they were three years ago. The management of the pnblic schools at Mason City, la., declared a recent Thursday afternoon a holiday in order that pupils might attend the races. The action lias c a u s e .! much comment. The census statistics show the gain in population in the United States to lie 24 8 0 per cent., while the enrollment of children in the publie schools is 20.54 per cent. This is a healthful indication. The Cornell school of law has enrolled Mrs. Mary Kennedy-Brown, a graduate of Wellesley and a young widow, as one of its students. She is the first lady whose name appears on the school list. The endowment of the new Chicago University is now over $2,000,000, and more than 0 Kl sin,lents have already en­ tered the first year’s course, which will begin, it is expected, in the autumn of 1802. Prof. Totton in a military lecture at Yale remarked that the average age of the 110 men In the class was 21 years, and he added : “ Upoll graduation you will have b-fore you aliout forty-eight years apiece.” The largest Snnday-pchool in the win Id is in Stockport, Fnghind.

Prof. Harris, United States Commis­ sioner of Education at Washington, in a letter to Assistant Postmaster Sturgeon of St. Louis, who had requested his views as to corporal punishment in schools, has replied that the fewer the cases of such punishment the better the schools are likeiy to la*, and that, en­ lightened sentiment is against the use of the rod. Cornell University has opened with an attendance in excess of that in any pre­ ceding vear. Up to date 1,370 students in all departments have registered, and a nnmher are in attendance, especially post gradua es, who have not yet regis­ tered. A noticeable feature is the in­ crease of students in the ixmrses in arts, philosophy and electrical and mechan­ ical engineering.
