think wc are safe in saying that a
large majority of the reasonable

try look upon the contest in the

and fruitless. And this view
taken without regard to political
preferences—it is held by Rcpub
licans and Democrats alike. That
the highest legislative body in the
country, second to none in the
world, should neglect the public
business for weeks to indulge
a squabble over a few offices,taking
occassion meanwhile to revive see
tional prcdujiccs by mutual erim
inations and recriminations
humiliating to every patriotic
American. The general feeling, il
it could ltnd expression in words,
would be: 'Attend to your legiti

On the ground of both right and
consistency, all the argument seems
to l»e in favor of the Democrats
standing up to the President in
this issue. The Southern Demo
crat, especially, who votes with
Conkling, will have need to go in
to explanations.
[From the Louisville Courier Journal.]
Abram Sebring, of Gratiot coun
ty, Mich., says he has the cape to and Agger
the overcoat worn by Jcftcrson
Davis at the time of Davis' capture.
It is found that the foreign-born
residents of Massachusetts produce
more criminals than the natives,
but that the natives plan crimes
more deliberately.
Gen. Robert Patterson, of Phil

Ilickcnlcoper lias delighted
thousands of other Ohio men by
saying he will not run again for
Lieutenant Governor. One office
vacated in Ohio causes more joy
than ninety and nine that are well

A r enncr says he doesn’t intend
to go lecturing. After such a
winter as he has been giving us
and considering the present abun

somewhat distrustful of popular

The New York Times ol Satur

the South and on the freedom the

and drawers oi water, and don’t
make anything else ot ’em. If ev
erybody wits rich, and could live
like u gentleman, a power of learn
ing would bo a good tiling, but
most people have to work for n
living, and a little is just as good
as a good deal to them. If a cinq
has an uncommon quantity ol
brains in his noggin and wants more
learnin,’ ho will be apt to get it
some way. If he has just a common
supply all he needs is ft common
education, and if ho huiut got
hardly any, then there aintno use
in straining his gun. The coun
try needs laborers; the farms need
’em, and so does the shop; hut
the farm nor the shop won’t get
’em from the colleges. About one
out of every ten who graduates,
becomes an ornament to the law,
the gospel,or some profession, and
the other nine expect some pro
fession to ornument them. When
a young man has studied logic and
rhetoric and syllogisms and othei
conundrums lie thinks it would be
a waste of sweetness for him to
work—work with his hands, his
pretty white hnnds.Ile just couldn’t

There’s more in the boy than
there is in the college. In these

tlmt not more than one in ten
want an unusual quantity. If the
family tukes a good newspaper and
lias a Bible and a few story books
in the house and the children do
an honest day’s work they’ll gtt

enough to bo spoiling so many
white boys, when you talk about

My opinion is that their natural

they are never so happy and con

every time you educate one you
spoil him; you make a fool of him;
