Ihb farmers about Whitesville, in
Harris county, are bestirring them
selves gallantly in preparing their
corn lands. May the good l«ord pros
per all tueir efforts in that direction.
Tub average smart man, is very
Otten astonished—disgusted and dis
gruntled by the mysterious ways iu
wuich great things are dune. Lately
the Rev. Samuel P. Jones, of Geor

Talmage’s Brooklyn Onurch ano
nearly three hundred persons pro

is the secretol such resuits?
A COI.LEtiIATE EOU< ASTON.
The R v. Dr. Jone E. I’odd. ot the
Church of the bedeemer, whose re
cent animadversion- upon American
College trail ing have stirred up ex
citing controveisies, has written a
letter in which he devotes himself to
lite at Yale College. Mixed drit ks
and poker, he thinks, are chief
among the things for which Yale
students are t quipped for lite. After
satiiicaliy referring to critics who
have been pursuing him, Dr. Todd
says:
‘‘lt is attempted to shield Yale
from the hot shot by the claim mat
things have been greatiy changed
aud improved since 1 was at college.
The change consists, it is said, in
improved methods ot classical in
struction, aud in the removal of
classical study from the supreme
place in the curriculum to a position
where it stands side by side with
other educational processes. Toe
latter change is a confession tnat the
traditional method ot education is a
complete failure. With reference to
the other changes permit me to en
quire whether the improvements
have been such that graduates from
the classical department can now
read Latin and Greek easily. Hour
schools and colleges, after making it
their chief business for 100 years or
more to teach Latin and Greek, and
with ail the superior appliances
claimed for the classical discipline,
cannot in six. seven, ten or eVen 15
years ot bard work give to a boy ot
good intellect, and desirous of learn
ing some decent mastery of these
languages, they had better try some
thing else or close for repairs. But,
what, iu her course of improvement,
has Yale substituted for the classical
discipline? Can her graduates speak
the modern langu-gjs any better
taan the ancient ones? Are they not
taught in the same absurd way and
with the same insiguitioint result?
Is there any literature, even in their
own language, with wnith the stu
dents have any considerable ao
quaiutauo- ? English studies hrve
been introduced to some extent, but
air they not treated a« optionals of
trifl'g importance? Hit much do
the graduates really know about
English literature, American hietorv.
the institutions and con iiti ms of our
own time, or the use of their mother
tongue? In this last even their in
structors are, most of them, glar
ingly deficient.
“A medley—A smattering of lan
guage, sciences, aud sub) >cts, n)t
one of wtnen is th»re any solid foun
dation laid for fu ure acquirements,
mingled with a thorougu aeqiaim
auca with me rules of athletic - auiee,
tuecomposition ot mrXed drinks, and
the mysteries of poker—such is the
present college education.”

two weeks ago he bought 300 sneep

dogs are the greatest hindrance to

Bpangler has done away with that
objection by putting a few doses of
