Ki.vn On last Tuesday the case of The rftatc of Ne braska vs W. N. (King, editor of the Helmrt who some few weeks ago made an assault on L. I). Denney who re cently returned from China, w.us brought to trial in the District Court before Judge Gasliu, and after a brief examination of the facts in the cae thej Judge persenbed a fine of one hundred dollars and costs and 9( days in jail. Tlie neat day however the Judge for reasons of his own, and by the request of the defendants, friends uspended the jail sentence until the next term of court, upon the condition that the tine and costs be paid, which wan soon afterwards done. King's friends raising a portion of the money, the total of which with cosis amounted to $162.50. This ca-e has caused considerable excitement and comment in this city from friends of both parties, some claiming that 'Jic sentence wa-i too severe, while- others say the reverse and think it ju-a. It was certainly very expensive for our contemporary, and we would advie him to beware in the future ofjnmking it necessary to aprear before the judge of the district court, who has a reputa tion of "giving the full extent of the law," to all who may come before His" Honor, and here we draw the veil pre ferring that the people pass their judg ment on the case as best suits their convictions, believing as we do that Mr. King will have learned a lesson by hi reticent experiences that will be oeniuc'iai ami lasting as lar as he is concerned. However, wo can't see the sense of sentencing a person to a trrtn in jail when it is well known tnat the sentence can not be carried out. Old Mexid Rep Ci.oup, Neb, Nov. 16, 1SS.1. Mk. Editoii: In your isue of your paper last week I noticed a slight ref erence to myself concerning my trio to the south, which led me to think that you desired sonic information and were either ashamed to ask for it, or had no money to pay fur it. However, I should be much pleaded to impart to your many readers some idea ot that wonderful country of Old Mexico, or the Republic of Mexico. As you said. Mexico is south of here, but much more may be said. To an American it is a most wonderful count rv, wonder ful in every particular. Though it is our next neighbor, and only separated from us by a small stream called the Rio Grande, which may bo forded for about one hundred miles. Yet though strange it h true that we are less like them, know !es about them, are less identified with their interests and have less ol our peop'e among them, than any country in the world It.s climate is the innt delightful; its scenery the mr-t beautiful, its people the mwi ridiculous of any country you micht visit. I should be pleaded to write you concerning Mexico politically, re ligiously, and socially, and aNoof home life; then of ita resource, griculture a fruit, stock, and nbove all. of its won derful mine. Until within a year or two a trip into that country has been attended with much dancer, but now it is becoming safe, and the thoughtful American may avail himelf ol many advanLnges by looking a little that way G.

Persons to govern, to m struct, to plan for. and control ihe whole ytrm. each in Ju proper -phere. The country chl hn all the attrib ite? combined in one person, who is teacher, examiner and superin tendent. School bit a few month in the year; children forgrttinii m their vacation the shallow work performed in that time. Teacher argue thai they h ive no time to do anything thor oughly, children opui ihcir fook-. look over the les-on, callcil to recite, teacher asks a few question, pupil answer if convenient, and if not the teacher tills the gJp like the teacher of arithmetic, meutionctl ny Page, cla return- to .-eat. Day after clay tho routine goes on; in many iui- the pujnls havo no true idea of the le? in or the thought intended to be eontev el. But it is not so done in the model school. How is it done there? No eay tak to tell. One'- model may not -nil another. A .-ailing clipper is long aud narrow with a sharp stem, while a snip for carrying burdens ha a greater length of beam in proportion to the length of keel. The tir-t get to port quickly with a few delighted pii sengers, the latter comes more elowly, but bearing a great load of the pro ducts of the commercial world, to adorn and enrich Uie estates of men, Ian none the less perfect, none the le beautiful or pleasing. Our model school i an ideal one to some extent and ought to bu while improvement and progre-J are the Watchwords in course. Wiih a neat school hott.se, pleasantly located, and thoroughly fur ni-hed, making it a home for the teacher and pupiN, thev come to their place of activity for the term. They find every thing in its proper place, the children are clean, hair and cloth ing neatly arranged from day to da', they tnke the seats as-igned them by the teacher pleasantly; every conven ience for a thorough ventilation of the room has been pr vided for. the small children sit on the seats suited to their iize and comfort, their position natur al, without a disposition to lounge about; pupils are taught how to keep the air in the room at its proper tem perature, the teacher over-ecing and controlling everything quietly, yet with a fiim hand. At least once a month, a physician wlnno judgment can be relied upon, should viit each room and enquire into the sanitary condi tion of thw school and report to the hchool board Ids approval, or recom mendation for changes to be made. Outbuilding's are watched carefully, that no obsconr writing ir found or nuisance commuted upon the premis es, and disinfectants freely ued ut proper times. Parents send their children to choo properly clothed ami iiistnu teil to avoid those things detrimental to health, as wot feet, damp clothing, etc. Ir. W. Parker says: "The laws of health are tlie laws otGnd, and arc as binding a the Dec alogue " Horace Mann said "At college 1 was taught the motion of the heavenly bodies, as if their keeping in their orbits depended upon my know ing them; while I was m profound ig norance of tne l.iwi of health of my own bodv. 'Ihe ret of my life was, in cmiprqiicucc one long battle with ex hausted energie-. ' Not only health is caret! for. but thi nunner-i and moral have a careful scrutiny under the ci' ol tho model teacher. Tho pupil leaye their play at the outer door, with hat oil they enter tho school room quietly and take their seats, -howmg all due courtesy to their fel 1 v pupil and the teacher. The ex treme formalities of our forefather have given place to more obnoxiou extreme in the utter contempt of "Young America" for fae rights and feelings of others, which ought to be checked, and at least a partial return to the "old time" custom. We quote from a circular concerning the teacher issued in Belgium: "Tne dignity of his acts and language, hts respect for justice, ins sincere regard for bin pu pils, will enable htm to etabllh a wie discipline and assure him the respect and love- of hi scholar-. Thus holding the po-uion of a good father of a family he will endeavor to give instruction, which like that of the domestic hearth, breathes simplicity, goodne-s. and virtue " We have said there is a proper place for everything, so there is a proper time for everything opening and closing, studying and reciting, leaving the seat or asking quefticn. Our chool does not open in the morning at half past nine or ten o'clock, and close at three, or at some time when a friend calls anxious to take n out rid ing, but at regular and stRted hour- Every pupil understands this and aim to bo prompt, or bring proper excuse. School opens with reading some por tion of Scripture from which the teacher impressea ome moral lcon is benevolence, kmdne.-?. truth, so briety, etc, or by pinging by the school, or both. Sectarian instruction as such is carefully avoided, but the great moral truths that regulate humanity and make men's lives more beautiful, good, and true, are as zealously pro mulgated. We are now ready to be taught far ther, ami the teacher is ready t im part instruction. We will not dicu?s the preparation, qualification and character of the teacher, .uf5ce it to ay he or she is deemed qualified to conduct our model school. Now what shall be untight? A smattering of arithmetic, grammar, 'geography, and reading? We say emphatically. No! A young lady in the east returned from boardi'tig school, and related 2he sum of her accomplishments to a gen tleman friend, when he retorted with more truth than was ilaUerina; to the voting lady's Tacity: "Yes. a little Vrenih. a little music, a little German, and you know nothing of cither." John Stuart Mill said. 'The aim of all intel lectual training for the mass of the people should be to cultivate common sene." We are to leave thorn thing we have no time to teih. and what ever the spviil branch of investiga tion wo are in prne that long enough to gi.e ii jHAi-r t comprehend it. and a breadth ofihugbt to enable us to grapple withfother thing for oure!v many pegesJof grammar recital.
