"The Land of the Miduight Sun" must indeed be an interesting portion of the earth's surface to visit if we may judge from the extremely interesting and beautifully illustrated article about that region that appears in Demortst's Month ly Muifazine ' for July; and tint the modes of travel in that far off country are ages behind the times is clearly shown by turning to another article in the same number of this valuable family mtgazine. In a most charming manner we are told of the "Comforts of Modern Railway Travel" in our own country, and the il lustrations give us a comprehensive idea of the luxury one may find in one of our palaces on wheels, from the kitchen to the boudoir. "Birds In Our Ho nes." by Olliver Thorne Miller, also handsomely illustrated, will please all lovers of our feathered friends; "Aids to beauty," u series of articles commenced in this num ber, will certainly be cf great benefit to those who wish to enhance their personal charms. Tlie stories in the July number are particularly attractive and summery, and the beautiful "Hose'" frontispiece is a study in colors weli worthy of framing. Published by W.

The losses by flood and fire are said to have been $50,000, 000, but that is only one two-hundredth part of the annual production of wealth; that is, the Nation has lost about the work of a day and a half. Yet gloom and sorrow inclini to dismal views, aud it may therefore be timely to see whit the Nation has been doing, in spite of many hindrances and much depression. It is nine years since a census was taken. If the best statistical estimates are not in error, the population is now oyer 05,000,000, an increase of thirty per cent, in nine years. In some things the industrial growth of the country has not kept pace with the growth of popu lation, it is true. Iu number of sheep the increase has been but IT per cent, and in milch cows 23 per cent., and the increase in swine last January seemed em 11. In acreage of wheat there has not been a proportionate increase. But in corn and oats the gain has been great er than in population, and the returns in cotton acreige show an increase of 40 pr cent, since 1880. The supplies of beef arc assured by an increase of 47 per cent, in the number of cattle. The greit manufactures have lccn do in2j their share. Even the woolen man ufacture, if Mr. Lynch's figures are cor rect, consumes 40 per cent, more wool than in 1SS, though this is doubtful. There U every prospect, however, that the increase this year will be large. The consumption in cotton by home manu facture has been from 1,981,000 to 2,600,000 bales of 400 pounds each, or 31 per cent. The magnitude of the leather manufacture can best be inferred from the number of oxen and "other cattle," which ha9 increase d 47 percent. in nine years, and .still the imports of foreign hides for manufacture here do not tease. The manufacture of iron and steel had in 1880 for a basis the production of 4,:jo0,000 tons of pig. iron. This year the production has been at the rate of 7,500,000 tons, a gain .of more than twice that in population. Similar remarkable gains have been made in many of the minor mnuufactures, as in silk and rubber, and in the production of copper and lead. J Jut while these departments of pro ductive industry have made progress on the whole more than commensurate with that of population, the railroad inilcag. uas grown from 00,000 to more thaii 159,000. Not the whole of this increase can be reckoned as a gain or addition to the National wealth. But by far .the greater part of it is now profitably em ployed in meeting public needs. The thriving city whose destruction by lire is .ne of the sad events of last week was si-.ucelv in existence when the census was taken, and owes its growth to the railroad system. A single Territory which produced less than 3,000,000 bush els of wheat in 1880 has since produced more than any state in the Luion oyer 5-' 000,000 bushels. The yolume of business, as recorded by the exchanges between banks in cities outside New York has grown wonder fully. In five months ending with May these clearings have amounted to eight thousand and forty-one millions, but about seven hundred and eight millions were at cities which did not report at all in lssl. Deducting these and allowing for the increase in recorded exchanges from 18S0 to 1881, the increase at twen ty-two cities, the most important outside New York, has been 51 per cent, in nine years. The mere increase in amounts paid at these cities for only five mouths of the year has been fifty times the lar gest esimate of losses by the reccet un . i.iecedented disasters. Terrible as these Ii ive been, me recuperative jjomcjs ui Nation advancing so rapidly in business, in production and in all the elements of 5t will nuicklv reuair all those ..v..."---.j, -1 ravages which can be measured in hu man labor.

OF THAT ANCIENT Organized Nearly a Century Ac A School for the Physical and Mental Kducatlon of Children The Organization Xju-ge aad Growing In the United States. This is no new organization; it was founded at the beginning of the century by Father John in Germany, and named the Turn Verein. Father John believed that physical training was the basis of truo thinking, and after a careful study of old Greceian and Roman games he evolved a system of training which he believed he could teach theoretically to his countrymen. With him wero asso ciated Eton and Spies and a dozen other men, who together organized the first Turn Verein and pledged themselves "to aid each other in rearing a people strong both in body and mind, and recognizing in the propagation of universal educa tion and in the fostering of good morals the sole means of a thorough reform in social, political and religious matters." MA KINO GERMAN SOLDIERS. The society grew so rapidly that the government, fearing its prowess, en deavored to suppress its increase by law, but subsequently realizing the advantage of a militia chosen from a people of strength and vigor, they reinstated it in favor, and out of its teachings grew the law requiring the practice of light gym nastics in all the public schools. After the revolutions the veterans of '48, compelled to leavo their country, cauio to America, and one of their first acts in the new home was to establish a branch of the old society, which now numbers in the United States 31,000 men, divided into 250 or 300 societies, by whom 20,000 children aro taught gym nastic exercises under nearly 150 teach ers. Whatever may be tho political bias of the society, tho second article in its act of incorporation states that "the particu lar business and objects for which such society or corporation is to be formed are the prcAiotion of physical education and culture and gymnastics and athletics in general, and tho establishment and maintenance of a school for the physical, gymnastic, athletic and mental educa tion of children." There are 150 children, or turners. In the New York school, and twice each week, after the public school closes, the girl turners, in dark blue flannel dresses, fashioned with loose blouse waists and straps of bright blue braid, black hose and white suppers, march up and down the large gymnasiums belonging to the society, and are taught to use all the ap paratus arranged for men and boys. Twice each week, too, in the intervening day 6, the boy turners, in dark trousers. light waists, scarlet belts and stockings and white slippers, are taught tlie exer cises adapted to their years. HOW THEY ARE TRAINED. On Sunday both classes meet together for instruction in German reading and speaking, which is tho only language used in tho school. Children enter the classes as soon as they are 6 years old, and continue the training until they are 18, when they become members of the so ciety if they desire. Members of the organization pledge themselves to exer cise in tho gymnasium two evenings each week until they are 30 years of ag after which they may be excused from active work. Discussions of the leading ques tions of tho day, political, social, and educational, are held each month, in which tho members participate, and a library is also owned by the society, and at the disposal of tho members. The children aro taught in classes of thirty or moro members; and thirty little las sies, in their blue gowns and white slip pers, are a very pretty spectacle, when not one of them is less than 6 or more than 10 years old, and each stands straight and firm, with a pair of dumb bells in her small hands. The most noticeable thinjr about the tiny turners is that they stand well, walk, well, and carry their heads very proud ly. They march and countermarch in single lines, then two, four and eight abreast; strike graceful attitudes, which bend and curve their bodies in every lino of beauty; swing the dumb bells high over their heads and lay them on tho floor without bending the knees, and when the hours drill is ended the baby battalion is drawn up in line and marches sedately out past a long file of girls from 10 to 15 years old, who enter for their exercise. There is to be seen again the same graceful carriage, the free, light step, and in the exercise which follows with the clubs the precision of motion adds much to tho pleasing effect. Every club rises and falls in unison, as if swung by the same hand, and, when the drill is over, the girls show their muscular power in drill with the heavy apparatus. Meanwhile tho baby turners have marched into another room, and are knitters and needle women now under the direction of the gentle faced teacher and her assistant. There are laces of wool and linen growing in their busy lit tle hands, and hems and tucks and the tiresome "over-and-over" blocks are stitched by the patient little lassies. The class of larger girls have embroideries and fancy work in progress, and one large girl is stitching with bright silk the sleeve of a new gown. Down stairs the tiniest babies of all are fKught the fascinating kindergarten work, and all the time the steady tramp of the marching feet and the clatter of the apparatus in the gymnasium may be heard. The woman's branch of the Turn Ver ein has also a class in the gymnasium, but their special work is to interest themselves in the . affairs of the school and the training and teaching of the children.
