The agitAtion In favor ot a reduction ot the use ot textbooks In the public schools Is spreadIng II various secUons of the cOlntr ) ' , nnll It b 1 Ihly to bring about what educators - tor consiller a most deslralo reform. OM of the chief ad\'oc.tes of redlccil ( ( textbooks Is Dr. J. M. iUce , who has made an extendtl z examination of the public choob or the country - try a 11 published his conclu lens In the znaga.dnes. The aim ot progressive teacher bo holds , shouM ( be to aid the pupil II buid- Ing a solid and permanent mental structure , consisting ot fundamental : Ideas based upa:1 concrete tacts. which shall ever remain fresh and active , forming a und of ready Imowl- cdS ( What they desire to secure In the pupil Is knowledge "which In itself Is stimu . latl and will create a many-sided Interest In the affairs of life. To construct such a mental fabric , says the Chicago Post , It Is necessary to bring the ideas to the notice of the Plpl In psycho- logical ordcr. In the textbooks the facts are not arranged In such order , but merely In a logical degree , and they are presented In too rapid succession They contain on a sIngle page sufcient mental food for many lessons. Facts commlted to memory In rapid succession - cession serVe no permanent Purpose because they are not digested , and consequently do not become an organic part of the Individual In our schools It Is rare. he holds , to fInd recitations that may be regarded In the light of instruction . In the thought studies , where scientifIc teachIng Is particularly required , the mechanical teachers attempt to do lte , I anything beyond hearing the pupils recIte their lessons. True instruction will not bo obtained until the teacher Is substituted for the textbook , as It Is 1 only then the principles of teaching can be properly applied . Abolition of the textbooks will not of itself be sufficient to secure scientifIc teachIng. I wi be only the first step toward placing the teaching on a scientific foundation . So long as the American standard remains 80 low that a graduate of a district school , without further preparation , Is eligible for member- ship In the profession a license to teach cannot . I not commanll ( any special respect. In Germany - I many according to Dr. Rice. the word ' "teacher" stands for somethIng. In this country It stands for nothing. The demand for good tehchers Is very small. The man- agement of the school system Is a purely local affair , asserts this authority . who Is not unknown In Chicago , and Is entirely at the mercy of local politicians , who can raise or lower the standard at their pleasure. What Is needed. he thinks , Is an Increase of professional - fessional strength among our teachers or the ability to apply expert knowledge In practice . UNSANITARY PUDLIC SCHOOLS. If one question should be of surpassing Interest . terest to every parent wrItes Dr. Douglas I. Stewart In the Forum , that questLn should be the public schools ] , for two reasons : (1 ( ) because the children attending are the children of the people ; (2) ( ) the schools are making the citizens of the future , and the influences of the building on the physique , and of the teacher on the mind , are apt to be under- estimated . Wo rely too much on home traIning. Important as this Is . It must be borne In mind that many of our city chll- then have no home life whatever , and others would be hotter without such as they have. Taken pt Its best the home chiefly teaches the prIvate conduct of the parents but the school gives the young child's mind Its frt experience of the dealing of the Individual with masses , which we adults cal citzen- ship. The child may be monarch In some homes. In the school he fInds hImself a sUbject wIth very serIous responsibilities. Though thIs fundamental change may be go- Ing on all about us , though future characters are beIng made or marred by thousands . every day , though the next genera- ton are being made near-sighted , deaf , crooked and hysterIcal , and though they are compelled to Inflate their lungs wIth a germ-laden atmosphere redolent wIth wih emana- tons from soIled clothing stables and un- sanitary plumbing-yet the absence of Interested . terested and protestIng spectators Is solemnly ImpressIve. TEACHERS' PENSIONS IN ILLINOIS. While the measure providing for a system of pensions for teachers who had served twenty-live years was pending In the liii- nols legislature the parties In Interest were practically unanImous In favor of I. Now that the measure Is an operative law con- slderable dissatisfactIon Is i expressed among teachers , especially those drawIng high sal- arle ! . A teacher who draws $45 I month will have no serIous objections to contributing 45 cents to the pension fund The objectIon Is urged that while the fund Is created by deducting a uniform percentage from all salarIes the benefits to accrue are not as equitably distrIbuted. The highest pension that can be paid to any teacher Is $600 , although the law provides that any woman who has taught twenty years , and any man who has taught twenty-five years may receive an annuity of hal the alary received while In active service . This clearly gives the $1,200 : teacher a decided advantage over the $2,500 teacher when It comes to pen lons. As the law makes the creatIon all disbursement - bursement of the fund mandatory , but does not provide any other means than the 1 per , cent contrIbution of teachers for raising the fund , many legal authorities do not hesitate - tate to aver that It wIll not stand the test of the higher courts. SCHOOLS IN OERMANY. r The primary government schools of G < r- , many are fre as well as compulsory , says a i wrIter In the Chautauquan. Nor Is compUlsion - pUlsion a dead letter. Children must attend school between the ages of 6 and 1 'ears. The bright pupils who complete the specified work before the rest are not allowed to leave before the age of 1 unless they Intend to enter a higher school. Children between the ages of 6 and 12 attend school during the forenoon only but their forenoon Is equal to : - our school day , as school begIns at 7 and ends at 1. At the end of every two hours the pupils have nn IntermIssion of fifteen mInutes. Twice . durIng the week they are , allowed an hour's IntermissIon. Scholars above H.e age of 12 return to school at 2 9' o'clock and study until 4. .

German methods of teachIng are admirable ' . and the chidren seem very enthusiastic. In ono class room a young man was teaching geography to fifty or sixty gIrls from 1 to t , 14 years of age. A large map hung on the wall ; the subject for the lesson that day was t1 rivers. In answer to each of the teaeher's questions a forest of girls' arms , bare to the r , sheul1er , went up and each eager IntellIgent ; . face seemed ready wIth an answer. The same t enthusiasm was exhibited In the hIstory class. 4 The teacher , steppIng down from her plat- , form , began wIth her pupils a resume of German history , askIng whence came theIr 4 ) . ancrstor what were their mental and phy- ' sIcal characteristics , by what peoples they p , hal been conquered and whom they had conquered. After each question up sprang . the long bare arms and each girl seenietj : more desirous to answer than her neighbor hut when the questIon was put : "Which Is the best land ? " all answered together wIth r emphasis : "Deutschland. " ( The government report for 189 shows 1,896 & ' male teachers wIth an average salary of I I 2,325 marks per annum ( a mark Is about 25 e cents ) .

NEW YORK , Sept S.-Henry Clews , mead of time bankIng house of Henry Clews & Co. , writes of the situation In Wal street : The course of the financial markels Is Indicative of I sleady growth of public trest. Each succeeding week the wave of confidence gains Increascd force and Is steitthily carrring before It all the obstruc- tons of distrust. I Is more and more recognized that the clements which arc making for Improvement stand associated with natural forces , while these whIch have been unsettling confidence have been con- nected wih the mere Instruments of com- merce. I still remaIns a 11\eston whether the latter factors-especIally the condition of the treasury and the silver agitation- can materIally obstruct the great natural recuperative forces that are now asserting theIr Influence from one end of the country to the other and through the entire range of our industry . Perhaps the best answer to this question Is In the fact that , for the last six months the recuperative forces have been stealll ) ' gaining ascendancy over those tending to derangement antI distrust. A more positve argument for confidence than this fact affords could hardly be con- celved I implies a set ted conviction In the public mind that with a sound condition of the material Interests of the country the way will ere long be founll for removing time fiscal nod monetary conditions that now stand In the way to absolute conl- dence. And that conviction Is a rational one. For nlhoulh It may not be at this moment , generally apparent exactly when 01 how these Inanclal Ilernementl will be relljuste , ) 'c there II nothing like an impossibIlity or even a substantial dllculy In the way or that nchlevement. The gold qUlston Is beset by no sUch ferlous 111. cul ) as a substantlnl ( denclene of supply ; the trouble there lies simply tn a departure from the usual distribution nnd reservoirs and circulaton and use of the metal. That dIsarrangement has arisen from no uncon- trolabe : cause bu simply from a mistaken course In the Iseal usages of the treasury , which had the effect of depriving the banks of their customary receipts of gold from lImo government at the clearing house , thereby compelling them to almost entirely slspend gold PaYments and throwIng the whole gold movement Into suspension to the detriment chiefly of the treasury itself. This confusIon Is susceptible of remedy the moment the treasury and the banks can be brought Into conference with a view to the restoration of their old relations Il this restorton relatons matter . with such modIficatIons or safe- fuar s as under the circumstances may appeal advisable. In the meantime , the loan syndicate continues Its valuable serv- Ices to the government by supplying the treasury with gold ns fast ns It Is taken from the reserve for export , and having persisted In that course to the extent the ) ' already have It seems safe to assume that they will continue this support until the foreign exchanges have turned In our favor. That stage In affairs being reached , new possibilities will appear , favorable to the syndicate crownIng its remedial work by brInging the banks amid the treasury to an understnmlng that . will fInally settle this embarrassing qtuettlon. Judging from ordinary - nary precedent the current exports of gold may be expected to be followed , within a moderate perIod . by Imports of specie. Ar- Iulng from the way In which the syndicate has been able tO control the exports of gold and the foreign xchanges for months past , It Is reasonable to assume that , If It were desirable In order to achieve an Important purPlse , they could , under the present pethor : of gold In the European banks swell the rcfux ot I to this side of the At- htntlc. The result of these movements would appeal In a material Increase of the stock of gold at this ccnter. This replenishment - meat of the specie In the city banks would remove the chief practical objection they have felt to a IMumpton or their former relations wih the treasury . My Informa- tlon leads me to Jolt forward to thIs approaching - preaching sItuatIon as the point at which the banks wi return to time payment of customs duties ] chiefly In gel and to pro- vllng gold for export. the treasury at the same time settling Its balances at the clear- Ing house In gold whIle the syndIcate will retire from Its services , leaving tIme circulation - lon of gold restored to its normal condition. The gold questIon having been thus set- ted , there need bo little further fear about thc silver agitation. The treasury reserve having been again placed upon a safe foundaton. the consequent recovery of con- fdence at home and abroad will produce a revival of Imslnss and" a rise In mill values which 'ill annihiate the pretenSe that the depression of business anti the fall In prices have been caused , by the " emonetzaton of silver . " antI the free coinage of that metal wi be relegated to the dead Issues of popular ignorance. -vooI. ' 'IAUg QUITE SATISFACTORY. Market lJiitisminllyAetIve must ) l'rleeH Reid Ste.ul ) ' . BOSTON , Sept 8.-The American Wool anti Cotton Reporter says of the wool trade : Wimile a few of the markets have not aggregated - gregated the usual weekly sales , doubtless due to the holiday Intervening , others have shown a marked Increase. Prices arc steady all around , anti the . market has manifested noticeable actIvity In the mater of line No. notccable 1 amid washed wools. Thcre Is still a difer- anl In the IdeaS of both buyer and seller , ne tu prices but on the whole few sale ! have been made through concessions on thc part or the lmoltler. ] except In a few In- stances where some weak holIeI has shaded prices. Values on time contrary , arc line . whie the general prosperIty In AmerIca la InlProvlng.

ClothIers have prepared for this by making larger lJrchases IJreparel anti medium goouls. 'l'he aggregate Iales of the markets In Boston . New York and Philadelphia are 5.3i5.6 pounds against 4,16.10 pounds for time corresponding period I year ago. At New York the sales amount to 950,00 pounds. Wool Is quite strongly hel 11- though some agents are Fahl to be a iltle moro desirous of selling than they were a few weeks ago. WIth the beginning of September a a/o. business Is generally looked for . as It Is believed that the manu- loollel will soon have to come Into the marltet. A number of Emple bales arc also out , time outcome of which Is awaited with some Interest. Time sales of the week In Boston amount to , ses , pounds. The market Is more active In line No. 1 washed , with a fall demand - actve for tne and above wools.
