A number of young women in New York have organized themselves into a class for the study of the Constitu- ion of the United States and other wise familiarize themselves with American institutions. It. is a. matter of surprise, how few Americans know anything of the principles of the government under which they livje. This is especially unfortunate in a republic where the government is supposedsto be “of, for and by tho people.” More attention should be paid this subject in our. schools and colleges. A common school course should em brace a brief but explicit treatise on our government. On this subject an exchange wisely says: “Every child native or foreign born should b« taught in the school or col lege it attends the principles upon which our governriient rests. He should know just what Congress may and may not do, the limits and scope of the executive and judicial powers granted oy the Constitution, and, above all, Ire should learn that the Constitution was the result of years of striving toward a union of separate republics and that it was a sacred compact, in the making of which each State, with many misgivings at the time, surrendered something for the general good. If all American citi zens understood the almost insur mountable difficulties under which the Constitution was framed and adopted there would be less disposition to violate its provisions or to treat them as of no importance. - ” mg the law requiring the roads to bo kept in good condition. Representative Candler, of Geor gia ,ia quoted as saying : “From what L hear on the floor, the Republicans are determined to have an extra'ses sion of Congress. It is i.ot because the country requires it, but because they want to get their hands oh aB the offices right away, and unseat a num ber of Democrats. The needs of the country will be the excuse for calling An extra session.” France holds her elections on Sunday so that every employee may have an opportunity of voting. This is not very Christian, but it is Repub lican. There is a disposition in the French nation favorable to the Re publican form of government, and yet there still lingers a strong prejudice in favor of monarchy. While Napo leon was making himself dictator, he used, to open his speeches with “Vive la Republique.” THE BURNS ANNIVERSARY.** Yesterday was the anni versary of +he birthday of Robt. Burns. The “one touch of nature” which “makes the whole world kin” so acts, upon us that neither a century of time nor an ocean of distance can lessen the fame of the brave and strong singer, born of the people, whfi “through long days of labor and nights devoid of ea£e’’ wrestled to lift the world higher. Hu manity has been far better for such men as Burns, and, while “Bonny ,le in consideration of the hope j Doon” shall run to the sea, there will er profit to result from im- j always he a place in the heart of man- tho rented property.

A Democratic member of the tion. j House has made affidavit of having matter merits consideration. • been offered money to support the Early Schools of New Hampshire. The Rev. M. T. Runnels writes of pioneer schools of New Hampshire, that they were tuught sometimes in dwelling houses, sometimes in bams. Tho scats were transported from place to place, according to the location of the school, “Carrying tho seats” gave riso.to miiclrsport. Foremost among the early teachers stands tho name of master Abraham Perkins. He taught tluf schools in Sanbornton for many years. Master Perkins always wore a three cornered cocked hat. His breeches were of velvet. With silver buckles at the knees. Ho carried a large, ivory headed cane. Ilo usually saluted his pupils on entering the schoolroom. In pleasant weather, the scholars used to stand in doublo line—tho girls on one side, the boys on tho other, ar ranged by ages—as he approached. Off came the three cornered lmt and the hoys’ caps; then they counter marched into the schoolroom behind him. . Master Perkins’ wages were four or five dollars a month and board. His first school was kept in Josiah San born’s house, near tlio old meeting bouse; afterward he taught in barns, and for some years in the meeting house. At one of Master Perkins’ first schools, Patience S carried her knitting work into tho schoolroom. She was a beginner, and supposed she could usk tho master about her knit ting as well as anythin" in her books. She went to him several times for in structions. He treated her with his customary kind courtesy, but directed her each time to narrow. Naturally this process soon brought t.ho knittin" work to a point, as the master liad designed it should.— Youth’s Companion. Ho In Either Strangely AITHeteU or a Most . .Accomplished I.ittie Liar. Twclve-year-old Willie Maicrs, of St. Lcnis, is In a fair way to become a national issue. Not in politics—O, no—but in medical science. His; friends and sympathizers insist that ho is afflicted with hysteria, neuralgia, epilepsy, hydrophobia and hystcfo-cpiicpsy, besides mild symptoms of Opisthotonos, paro-. sis of tho taxi-motors and other littlo afflic tions of that nature. Tho corporation doc tors, on the othur hand, assert that ho is amply a most accomplished littlo fraud, a malingerer of tho most perfect typo. His experience was rough enough to make him either a knave or an epileptic. He and other boys interfered with some dog catchers whilo at their work; one of these threw the wire loop they use over the boy’s head, drag ged him to them cart and held him down on the c age where the dogs were confined.* The maddened animals bit his legs several timi^ and.the rough action of the dog catchers bruised his neck and strained his hack. Tho papers gave voice to tho public indignation, and a day or, two later the boy began to have “fits” with symptoms of hydrophobia. Then three of the dog catchers were arrested, and are in jail in default of bonds of $15,000 each. Then the battlo of tho doctors began. Dr.. J. K. Banduy, an authority on nervous diseases, with two associates applied various ingenious testa to the boy and announced emphatically that ho was shamming. His “rolling fits,” “foiling fits,” convulsions and “barking” are wondorfufiy well done, they say, anti show tho boy to have re markable talents as on actor; only they do not happen to bo the kind of fits and “barking” always present in. the dis eases ho Is asserted to Have. They also assert that after Hie boy learned that he had tho wrong symptoms” he wilt.te maieks. promptly adopted the proper ones. They then fabricates! symptoms and made him be lieve such were always present in hydropho bia, and theAoy was soon afilicted therewith. Undoubtedly he was badly hurt, for tho dog catchers threw him from tho top of their cart on to the stony street; but as to the “fits” tbo physicians Insist they are simply clover Imitations. This ia one of tho most delicate questions physicians have todeal with. In tho New Eng land witchcraft cases it was clearly proved that tho children began by pretending and soon lost control of themselves, so 4hat tho convulsions became real; and this is often noticed, in tho army when soldiers begin such tricks to secure a discharge. The imi tation soon gets beyond their power to con trol. When the “jerks” prevailed at religious meetings in the west, people who ridiculed them were often taken with them in the worst form. So it may be with Willie Halers. But between “fits,” of which he has a dozen or so a day, ho smokes cigarettes, swears fluently and plays cVrds with unusual skill.

It is just as neces sary that fertilizer should be in good mechanical c indition and throughly assimilated in order to obtain the best re sult from its use as it is necessary that the soil bo prepared thoroughly before planting, if one would make a good crop. r ■ Second. When one buys a fertilizer the first question should he not how much am monia the manufacturer guar antees, but whether the am monia is thoroughly assimilat ed and ready to act immedi ately on the plant. This lie will know by examining a complete and absolutely ant- moniated fertilizer, like the ASHEPGO or the EUT AYV, where the component parts are so united as to from a per fect whole. The field tost of such goods! will bring about the most profitable results. Third. As one is largely dependent upon the integri ty of the manufacturer he should buy fertilizers from a house known to he absolute ly reliable and who would only handle goods made by absolutely first class manufacturers. Thus one will avoid paying out mon ey for inferior goods that would probably yield no prac tical returns. Fourth. Messrs. ROB ERT, TAYLOR & WIL LIAMS of Charleston, S.
