Success; '
It has been weli! jsaid thatmoral and

quire time a4 well as patient labor to
make progress in any" great reform ;
and 'wo humbly belieye that wo give
utterance to the lentiraonts of every
individual who has.beeu a close obser
;ver and has writched closely tho
workings, of burS elite Normal School,
When we avpr.thiit tho last, year has
been of marked success and of gener
al improvement; and in taking a re
trospective view of tho past, and look
ing. (at the difficulties the school has
had to encounter, ft Is indeed gratify
ing t& know that their labors have
not been in vain, though the major
part of the, work, which has. been
done, has been done im quietude (and
in a manner unobserved, especially
by those who pay but little attention,
believing in the old provorb, tbjat n
silent worker is better than a noisy
talker, and avoiding that so culled
sensational plan of procedure. Yet,
it ia our private "opinion! expressed
publicly, that the work .has been
steadily advancing and one of the
beat evidences of the schools progress
is; to bo observed in the accurate and
concise manner in whinh students' are
examined. And wo bhall here give
you a sketch of tho examination, but
before entering into the details let me

Miss Kingman, Ponmanshipby JEJrof.
P. M. Martini Was Interesting as well
as thorough. At' the close of the ex
aminations test vote was taken by
the students .and friends, as to who
had made the greatest progress In
writing during thfe-terra second; as to
who could furnish the best specimen
of penmansh'ip. Tho vote was aa fol
lows: Best specimen, a tie between
Miss Mary Snyder and Miss Mary
Giles. Greatest improvement, Miss
Alice Lincoln. The classes wfcre-all
well prepared for the occasion.
On Monday evening an able lecture
was delivered by Prof. Brooks, Presi
dent of Tabor College, of which tho
following is an abstract : r
After ome introdnctory reiharksl
the speaker referred to the dignity of
the teachers' calling, that of winning
immortal minds and of the value of
the teachers' work, showing by nu
merous illustrations that it' is to bji
judged by its results to be of very
great importance. The teachers' work
is the development of the faculties or
germs of powerin man, and the train
ing of them into "harmonious action
in obedience to the laws of reason and
of morality. Education was said to
include all those things that effect the
intelligence of mankind
After speaking at soma length,, of
the influence of the teacher upon the
pupil, in shaping ..the character and
his responsibility in view of the in
fluence he exerts through them, he
spoke of the effect of the looks and
tones, in educating children, and of

BROWNVILLE, NEBRASKA,
boas sacredly regarded as our own.-
He said that the teacher. should! not
pointout the. faults of Kis pupils tin a
personal manner. Do not use 'cruel
words of punisTiment. K"over pdiiish
so, as. to destroy the pupil!s xespect.
When I speak of love" for pupils, I
;meah you are to seek the success and
beat interest of those who are ugly,
mischievous, &o. Unless a scholar is
made to feel thai the teacher is ihis
iiriend, his study will be yeryJimUed.
It will ai'd us very much in dealing
with children, to remember our own
feelinga.when we were children. It
is safe to conclude that pUpiW 'hi
make trouble do not it turuugu
mere ugliness, but through, thought-,
Ieseness, but be open and frauk with
them, speak of their faults only in.the
absence of the school. 5th. Essential
is seif-cbri trol. Unless there is Harmo
ny in the school, the friction .will soon
tear the machine to pieces. One who
loves his self-control or is easily made
angry, ought never to be a teacher of
children. He then spoke of days
when every thine: ooes wronir ; when
t wiU 8eem that everything Will con-
spire to make noise and anoy you
The difficulty too often rests with tho
teacher. Never Speak loud and harsh
tibder excitement. Never punish
when iil a passion. Oth. Essential is
enthusiasm. There Is (inactive, mag
netic influence that is essential to
control the minds of others. He
faithful to your manhood and woman
hood. He a model for ydur pupils,
and when you have been faithful to
the discharge of your ever duty, don't
allow the remarks that will be made
to bother you and anoy you, for, you
will have no right to unfit yourself
for present duty by worrying about
what you cannot help.

spirit, energy and ap

ed. He referred to the various pur
suits of life and different avocations,
showing the power of tho students
position over all others. He referred
to tho approximation of the true stu

of nature, and that knowledge is the
only true key to unlock the store

address to the graduating class. He
referred to the restraints of the grad

fact thafcMrs. Greeley is veheinently
in favor of it, mc.y bd an explanation.
Nevertholesd, tho white-coated phi
losopher brought in a report adverse
to woman suffrage. Now, it happen
ed that Mrs. Sttlunton and Mrs.
Greeley are dear friends, and Mrs.
Stanton was at Albany when Horace
reported. Instauter sho telegraphed
to Mrs. Horace to get up a petition of
ono thousand women, head it herself
against the report refusing women
suffrage, informing her what her hus
band had done. Tho next day it
came; and amid the roars, pf laugh tor
of the, convention and to the surprise,
.and chargrin of Horace, this petition,
indorsed "from Mrs. Horace Greeley
and a thousand others," was read.
Tho white hat and; coat vanished in
search of "that inveterate Mrs. Stan
ton." She was found. Tho following
dialogue ensued :
Greeloy "Good morning, Mre.
Stanton."
Stanton. "Good morning,'Mr. Gree

to send that infernalpetition hero?"
Stanton "I kept her posted about
your unconstitutional proceedings,

Greeley "Well, madam, I hove al

The JPeh tanff, as the ecclesiastical
Mjs&ion under FrenchT protection is
lerineu, lies in cne norinweet, corner
Of' the City walls. The historyof this
spot of ground has been perhaps 'as
eventful as that of any foreign loca
tion in the far East. ,Tke- original
site was granted, to the French Jesuit
missionaries who first visited China,
by the Emperor Kaughi the Augus
tus; of Chinese literature and they
successfully held it for some years.

and a handsome church (the tower of
which' wag restricted to a helr?hfc of
sixty feet, lest it should overlook the
imperial harem), dormitories and
schools, were erected by the French
Government. In 18S4 these were,
however, destroyed by fire, a valuable
museum founded that filled by the
naturalist David alone escaping the
devouridg element. Again did -fresh
buildings arise from the ashes of their
predecessors the members.of Mio Phi-
nese Foreign Board assisting the. for
eign ministers in laying tho founda
tion stone. And nowtheae, too', have
shared the fate of their predecessors.
Tho Ruslan church Was situated be
tween the United Spates and British
Legation, and has long been U con
spicuous object from the walls of Pe-
xin. or unpretending architecture,
tho cross, with which it was surmoun
ted, was plainly visible above thelow
roofs of the surrounding nativo build
ings. The telegram does not inform
us Whether it was also destroyed, but
the mention of several Russirns being
killed,, would lead to the inference
that their Legation, within the pro-'
cinota of which tho church stands)
had also been mabe a subjeot of at
tacks Xouralgla.
Tho cortain cure of neuralgia is
found in judicious eating and exer

cure cannot be effected In any other

In nouraigia the blood is always too
thick, impure, and in excess; and as
diet and exerciso combine to remedy
these conditions, some rules in rela
tion to them aro desirable. "These
will bo adapted to sedentary persons,

Dinner the same as breakfast, .ad
ding one vegetable and some fruit,

ing else. A different, kind of vegeta
ble may bo taken every day for varie
ty ; the kind of meat may bo' changed
at each meal.
The objeotin tho specification above
made is to discourago variety at meals,
because it is this which tempts all to
eat too much. Persons at times havo
felt at the table that thoy had, eaten
enough ; but on seeing a very Invi
ting dish unexpectedly brought In, a
goou meal nas been eaten of this, last
variety. The general and hurtful er
ror is that too great a. variety is spread
on our tables, not only ocensiening
trouble of preparation and great loss,
but also a positive injury in the
temptation of the appetite. The
reader .may try it upou himself or
any one two days. A- dinner of one
vegetable, one kind of meat and
bread ; at dinner the next day, lot a
great variety be presented; he will
eat double the amount at this repast,
with this remarkable difference: an
hour after the first meal, he will be
entirely comfortable, will feel as if he
had 'eaten quite enough ; an hour af
ter tho latter, there will be decided
discomfort, a fullness, a fccling-natif
some kind of relief was desirable, and
in too many cases a resort to tho de
cauter, with a vain hope of a riddance
in same waya It cannot bo denied
that the first steps toward intemper
ate habits have been taken in UBing
liquors to remove tho unpleasant con
sequences of over-eating. A very
great aid toward overcoming a habit
of top hearty eating will be found in
setting down to;a table with only
three varieties of food. Ur. Hall.
A Warning to Husband?
A lady in the Revolution (Sister An
thony's paper), writes as follows :,
Tho great want of women at pres
ent is money money for their per
sonal wants, aud money to carry .out
tholr plane. I propose thatthey ahall
earn it; that they shall consider it is
honorable to work ibr board, and de
mand for them equal pay for effual
work. I demand that bearing and
rearing, of children, the most axact
Ing of employments, and involving
the most terrible risks, shall be tbo
best paid work in tho world, and that
husbands shall treat th'elr wives with
at least as much consideration, and
acknowledge them entitled to asmiich
monoy as wet nurses.
Tne moaning of tnis is, tnat wives
aro about to strike for greenbacks ; so
much for every baby born. No
greenbacks, no sons and daughters.
No more greenbacks, no. more popula

Nature and Art.
Upon examining the edge of a very
keen razor witbia microscope it will
appear as broad as the back of a thick
knife, rough, "uneven, full of notches
and furrows. An exceedingly small
needle resembles a rough iron bar.
But the sting of a bee, seen through
the Bame instrument, exhibits every
where a polish moBt amazingly beau
tiful, without the least flaw, blemish
or inequality, and it ends with a poirrt
too fine to be discerned. A small piece
of exceedingly fine lawn appears,
throrgh a miscroscopo, like a hurdle
or lattice, and, tho threads seem coars
er than a yarn with which ropes aro
made for anchors. But a silk-worm's
web appears perfectly smooth and
shining, and every whero equal. The
smallest dot that can bo. made with a
pen appears, when vlowod by .the
microscope, an irregular spot, rough;
jagged and uneven. But the little
specks on the wings or bodies of in
sects are found to be most accurately
circular. So great is tho contrast be
tween the works of God and man.

been, blessed with ffowors. They
wreathe the cradle and-the tomb, they
deck the bridal and "the bier. The
Cupid of the ancients tipped his ar
row with flowers, and with omsge
blossoms orowned tho bride. Flow
ore garlanded the Greclaa altar, and
to-day they hang votive wreaths o&
the votive shrine. Flowers are- al

wedded beauty they are a lovely type
of marriage, they twine around the
tomb an emblem of the resurrection ;
they should feast on the place- of of-
ferlngs, for their beauty and fragraace -ascend
in perpetual adoration Defers
the Most High.
