MANUAL TRAINING SCHOOLS.
In a recent speech ftt the
the laying of the corner atone of
Prof. Felu Adlor'a "Workingman'a
School , " Prqf. Walker of the No *
York board of education laid down
the now creed of manual education in
the following language ! "Education
of the hand and eye ahould go along ,
hand in hand , with the education of
mind. Wo believe in making good
work men M well as in making ed
ucated intellecta. Wo think thcie are
things that can ba done at the same
tirno and cur proposition la that they
can bo done bolter together lhan
separately. " The sentiment in
favor of manual training school * , haa
grown greatly in public favor since
the time when Emerson put his re
flective Inquiry , whether it was not
absurd that the whole liberal talent of
this country should be directed to
studios which load to nothing. Ono
of the most successful of these school *
Is in operation at St. Louie , and Prof.
Woodward , at the recent mooting < > f
the National Teachers' association-
icnjjm which it is.cqnductod :

and MO prejudice thorn against none.
I have no sort of doubt however ,
that the grand result will be that
many who otherwise would cko out a
scanty subsistence aa clerks , book
keepers , salesmen , poor lawyers , mur
derous doctors , whining preachers ,
abandoned ponny-a-liaers , or har
dened Bchool-keopore , will bo led
through the instrumentality of our
schools to positions of honor and com
fort as moshanicf , engineers or manu
facturers. " No attempt is inado to
render the school Bolt-supporting by
manufacturing for the market. The
v oil-established fact is Biibmittcd by
its managers that a good school for
thorough education on whatever sub
ject costs monuy. Nor are the lads
confined to learninira particular trade ,
but they are taught the ar.4 of the
various trades as impartially and thor
oughly as possible. As a result , aside
from the fact which experience tuachea
that there is aoarooly a culling in so-
oiotv that is not cditirtd by manual
training , Professor Woodward cites
testimony to provo that it is really but
i\ atop from the door of such a manual
training school to the whop of the
craftsman , and that aa to enduring
skill there can bo no doubt. "
Many of our parents are beginning
to demand a moro practical education
for their children. The advantage of
our high Hchools consists in the fact
that they provide excellent literary
education for those who are unable to
bear the expense of private instruc
tion. But it in frequently noted as
ono of the dofccta of the common
school system and our collegiate inati
tutiona that half our colleges ape the
English uuivoreitiea and half the hih | ;
schools ape the colleges , where a largo
proportion of the students expect to
bo gentleman of leisure and the idea
of earning one's bread and of support
ing one's family acarculy untora their
head. It is tliia practical education
which the technical and manual train
ing schools are intended to supply an
education of the hands together with
u cultivation of the intellect.
NOTUINO is moro adocting than the
light of that venerable democratic ro-
'ormer "Gentleman Oeorgo" Pendlo-
ton demonstrating the fact to his own
satisfaction that the only hope of poli-
ical regeneration must como through
the success of the democracy at the
polls , Mr. Pendloton cries for an
adjustment of our present unfair
system of taxation which ho very
justly says is thu most urgent do mum
of the times , liut it is pertinent to
atk whether the demand was not jua
an urgent when Mr. Puidleton'a party
controlled both houses of cunyrcss ,
and wcro too cowcrdly and tun dh idei
to doviao and put into operation a
justor and fairer system than the onu
which ho now condemns. It ia imtura
for the out ) to duairu to get in , bu
they certainly ought to bo able tc
give some good roisons why such i
clmngo ia desirable. Reformers of the
Ptindloton stamp find it oaiy tu iiiu
fault. Nothing is earicr , liut wha
assurances cm they give that HI
ousting of the present party aud its
replacement by an old aud docropi
organization , without bjckbouo enougl
to hold definite views on any itaue ,
will accomplish anythitiB for the gooi
of.tho public 1 The abuses in the civi
service of which Poudluton complains
BO loudly are an inheritance from dum
ocratio administrations since Iho days
of immortal Jackuon.
Will ho or any
ether of his stamp pretend
that the aervlco is any moro demoral
ised than it was under Pranklu
Piurca or Jauios IJuohiiiau' Was it
not pivoted then us now on spoils as the
rovrards of party survice ? Of cjuwo

In which they have the control do

Mr. Pa ndloton rxxcs well In his at
titude of a great moral reformer
but I he lacks backing. If
his party over does succeed
in csptluring the national government ,
ho willj find his theories promptly laid
on thai shelf aa impractical and nan-

dare ot weaken 'his position at Da

'orco his rear at Tel-el. Kubir , where
Sir Clarnot Wolsoloy'o army is pushing
lim .long his line of retreat to Cairo ,
The ituatiou at iho present moment

Woh.oloy . ia pressing closely In thu

is pi obablo that this is only a move to

Thfjro is , too , some very reasonable

Caucus Control.
Onl Quiz.
A very practical political question is :
Should wo vote nvariably for the
regular party nominee ? It often hap
pens that the best man ia not the ono
who receives the regular nomination ,
and in that case we must decide
whether to vote for party or principle.
We believe in voting the party ticket
an much as consistent , but it should
not bo always done. If nman montlly
corrupt , or positively unfit for the < po-
aiton uf public truat , receives tlionom-
iDKUion , ho should receive no
aupport. So , too , if the nom
ination ia given to a man
of fair abilities and good morals who
does not represent the vioivs oi his
conitituentB , ho is not the man who
deserves the support of his party. IF ,
for initance , a temperance community
nominate for a high otlio a man mod-
orutoly temperate in Imbits , but hav
ing no sympathy for the temperance
move , it is evident that ho will not
justly and fairly represent the inter-
eats of that community , and every tern-
peranco man is in duty bound to vote
fur the man who is best fitted for
the position. Conventions have only
a conditional right to govern votes.
Wo do not mean to abridge the right
of conventions to make judicious nom
inations , for , if properly conducted
they servo to unite the party ; but when
they make the gross error , as they of
ten do , of nominating men who do not
represent our inttreatn , wo claim that
they have forfeited their right to con
trol our votes we ro bound to nup
poit a moro luting candidate.
Tno Knglleh Wheat Crop H Failure.
London lluirf.
At the close of July it is possible to
formsomo estimate of the prospecto of
the year'a harvest. Wo know pretty
well what the harveat at ita best can
bo. Wo sco the point beyond which
wo can not ox poet that it will go , llo > v
fur it will fall ehort of this wo have no
means of dotfrmining , The weather
in August will decide the matter , and
we can not predict what the weathcrin
August ia to be. Hut , under the most
favorable weather conditions , thoproa-
[ lucta for thu coining crop ] are by no
means universally good. Wo publish
this morning a full und cireful report
on the present state of tlio crops in
various parts of the country , It IH
hopeful in some reipoctt , but terribly
disappointing otherj. The wheat
harvest , our correspondent nays , will
bo ouco moro below tlu > average.
In many placca it will bo very
considerably below the average. The
general report about wheat ia
that on good soils the straw will bo
good ; that on poor aoils it will be
bad , and that on both good soils and
poor aoils the jield of grain will be
no batter than il has ben during the
1mt five yeara , or , in ether words , that
it will not nearly amount to a fair
average crop. This il bad nowa , in
deed , but when wo luvo given it wo
have given the worst. On no other
crop ia our correspcudont's report
quite as unfavorable at it is on wheat.
1'ho barley in BOIIIO paMs of the coun
try is looking well. In Dorsetshire
our I'orrospondont has soon some line
rich crop' , bending h riponeaa and
giving almost certain promise of good
mttltmu grain. FrontEieox thu crops
are reported a goo ! . In the Mid
lands they are loss promising. In
barley ua in vrhiat , the straw
seems likely , on t'io whole , to
be the bent of tie crop. The
yield of grain will borather loss than
the average , poaaibl ; it will not bo
equal to last year'a ycld. Wo come
nnit to oats and bams , aud to far
brighter proopects w far ai these are
concerned. Data , pur correspond
ent Bays , will exceed in both quantity
and quality the average of the last
seven years. They will be good both
in Btraw and in grain , In potatoes he
has observed no disease BB yet , but
the real time of trial has scarcely yet
come. August is a dangerous month
for potatoes and oven already he has
heard reports that in Scotland and In
Ireland , and in some parts of thia
country , the potato disease haa be
gun to show itself The hay harvest
of the year is now a certainty , nnd it
i , unhappily , a bad certainty. Never
fia the grans been moro plentiful ,
nd never has the weather boon moro
unfavorable to the process of turning
it into hay.
Whatever our wheat may turn out
to be , and in whatever degtco It may
fall short of our correspondent's
gloomy estimate , our supply of food is
in no danger. Wo draw thia from so
wide an area that wo can always
reckon with confidence upon obtaining
it at demand. If the harvest is bad
in ono part of the world , it is not bad
in all partf , and wo got our wheat , ac
cordingly , without much regard to the
eoARons. The worst of thu matter is
that England acorns just now to bo the
particular part of the world to which
n bad harvest ia most certain to como.
The price qf wheat is not raised , but
tlio fnrmor sntIerBMand , the country
suffers with him. Wo are not starved ,
and Wo are In no danger of
boinp starved , but our homu
troda is p.ipplyd. .Tlujjcinmioy winch

From ono cause or another our far

certainly bring them relief would bo
a bountiful harvest in this country
and a general failure elsewhere. But
this ot Iato has been precisely what
they have not obtained. The beat re
maining chance for them ia to do moro
toward adapting their methods ol cul
tivation to the climatic conditions
which they may expect. They have
begun to move , and seemingly in the
right direction. Cannot they quicken
their pice' If English farmers are
to thrive , there must como a change
somewhere. Either they must
change or English weather must
change. It ia only on ono or on the
other condition that they can hope to
escape the grave repeated losses which
have gone near to ruin them.
WHILE the republican factions are

A Model Woman.
OahcitonNewg.
The beat natured woman in the
United States lives in Austin. She
has boon married a number of years
to a man named Ferguson , but she
and her husband have never had a
quarrel yet , and ho has fioiuoutly
boasted that it is utterly impossible to
make her angry. Ferguson made
several desperate attempts to BOO if ho
could not exasperate her to look crosser
or scowl at him , merely to gratify
his curiosity , but the moro out-
rntzoously ho acted the moro
affiblo and loving she behaved.
Last week ho was talking to a friend
about what a hard time ho had trying
to litid out if his wife had a temper.
I'ho friend offered to bet 850 that if
Ferguson were to go homo drunk ,
raise a row and pull the tablecloth full
of dishes oil the table , she would
show some signa of annoyance. For-
CUBOII said ho didn't want to rob a
friend of his money , for ho know he
would win ; but they at last made the
bet of $50 , the friend to hide in the
front yard and watch the proceedings
of the conversation through the win
dow.
Ferguson came homo Iato and appa
rently fighting drunk , She mot him
at the gnto , kissed him and assisted
his tottering steps to the house. IIo
sat down hard in the middle of the
floor and howled out ;
"Confound jour ugly picture , what
did you mean by pulling that chair
from under me ? "
1 Oh , I hope you didn't hurt your
self , It was ray awkwardness , but I'll
try and not do it again ; " and she
helped him to his feet although she
had nothing to do with his falling ,
Ho then sat down on the sofa , and
sliding oll'ou the floor , abused hr.r
like n pickpocket for lifting up the
other end of th aofn , all of which she
took good naturLdly , und family she
lead him t < the supper tablo. IIo
throw a plato r.l her , but she acted as
if she had not noticed it , and asked
him if ho would take tea or culleu.
\Vlion the brute seized the table cloth
and eat down on the lluor , pulling thy
diahea and everything else over with
him in ono grand crash.
What did the noble woman do ? Do
you suppose she grumbled and talked
about going homo to her ma , or that
eho sat down and cried like a fool , or
that she sulked or pouted ? Not a hit
of it. With a pleiuant umilo , she tuid.
"Why , George , that's u now idea ,
ain't it' Wo li.ivo been married ten
jeura and have never yet ate our sup
per on the lloor. NVWt it bo f un
just like thoao picnics wo used goto
before wo were marrted ? " And then
