Yet It Isn't allogether pleasant elther. Ter lsoea geed nuny or the children trudge along In anything but a inerry mood. They leek inore llke Ilttle worn out inen and wemen than gladsome, Joyous, healthy and rollicking boys and girls, Tethem with llioadventor September 'the melanchely days have ceme, tlie saddest or the year." What's the matter with thorn ? Why, Just that t They ere Ilttle worn out tnen and wemen, se far as thelr mental condition Is concerned, The Ireshncssel childhood, the spring anil beuyancy, have been educalcd outer them. Tuey have had tee much "schooling." They are sullerlna rromsplrlt rremsplrlt ual dyspepsia. They are mentally worn out Hofbre the clese of the year you will see a geed mxny inore of thorn. 1 pity them all trem the bottom or my heart WitKNKVim I see this over-growlng num ber et victims te our educational systein I feel towards our schools almost as geed old Hlshep Cemmlus did towards thoie or tliree hundred years age, "They are the terrer of boys," he says, "and the slaughter heuses Of minds places whero n hatred or llterature aud lioeks Is contracted, whero ten or niore years ere spoilt In learnlng what might be ac quired In ene, whero what ought te be peured In gently Is violently forced In, and Iiealen In, whero what ought te be put clear ly and perspicuously Is prosentod In a con fused and Intricate way, as if it wero a col lection of puxles places whero minds are ted en words." And yet I knew, and am thankful te knew, that this Is net true el our public schools te-day. I knew that whero they wear out and ruin ene child's mind, they succced In Improving and strength en en en IngaRCoreorothcrs, perhaps a hundred or them. I ImMIove that our ayRtem el public Instruction as rcc'j Is the host that has yet lioen devised any whero. 1 realize that It con duces te "the groiitest geed or the groatest n u m hoi" educationally -at least I try te reali7e this. Insplte or It oil, hewever, I cannot help pitying the emaller number, the ene child out nl every scere or hundred, whom this wenderful system Is sacrificing ter the geed or the rest And I can't help asking myseir, la it really nocessary, this re re re lontless sacrifice ? Te Ihoeducatlon orahun erahun 1 1 red must thore always lie ene te whom our schoela beco:nei;tlio "slaughter houses of minds7" It would almost seem se; and yet I don't bellovelt That's what iKithers me. I uvTiu.it suspect that in education, as In many ethor things, that popular principle, "thegroatest geed or the groatest number," is nothing butn ploce or treachereus sophis try. Te make It the great and final goal of government, of Individual conduct, or of publle Instruction, Is radically wrong. "The groatest geed or thegroatest number" is net all that Is needed. It dare net be the end and aim of human ellert We daronet step when we have attained it Tiik lew have rights as sacred as the many. Wohavedutlos te thorn as binding as our duties te the latter. Te Injure the few in lieiiclitllng the many Is surely nothing te beast or. It Is barbarous, and te justify it is ii crnne.'ind ndn. SriiAKiNu of that old Moravian, Jehn Ames Cemenlus, the greatest educational genius the world has ever seen, wouldn't it be a geed thing ler our school directors, su perintendents and teachers, new that a new school year Is opening, carefnlly te study his principles and Instructions 7 True, he lived nearly thrce hundred years age, but then he was inore than three hundred years ahead of ills tinies. We are even new Just beginning te catch up with many or his ideas. lu fact 1 am net quilONUre that vve haverully caught up ev en yet with this lumlamcntal truth or Comenlus : "The right Instruction et youth," he do de clarcs, "does net consist in cramming them with a iiiass or words, phraso,8entences and opinions collected trem authors, but In un folding the understanding that many little htreams may Hew therefrem as rrem u living fountain. Hitherto the schools have net labored that the children might unfold llke the young tree trem the Impulse et its own roots, but have been conteuted wheu they covered themselves with foreign branches. Thus they h.tve taught the youth, after the manner or .1, top's crew, te adorn thomiselv os with strange feathers. Why shall we net, Instead et dead lioeks, open the living lioeks el nature t" CeNTiNitvu he lays dew n the second fun damental principle, whose truth we are only beginning practically te recognize. "Net the shadow of things, but the things themselves, which make an Impression en the neuses nnd the imagination, are te be brought before youth. Hy actual observation, net by verbal description of thlugs, must Instruction begin. Frem such observation develops a certalu knowledgo. Men must be led as far as pos pes pos Rlble te draw thelr wisdom net from books, but from a consideration el heaven and earth, eiks and hoeches; that is, they must knew and oxamlne things tlieniHclves.and net sim ply l contented with the observations and testimony et olhers." Tnnei oiiei'T Cemenlus's writings may be round truths, many of which are worthy et being Inscrilied In letters et geld nnd hung up prominently in overy school room or the land. Let me mentlnn only n row et them: lMucitlen Is a department or the whole man. Educational methods should fellow the order et Nature. Heth sexes should recoive equal Instruc tion, since thoeml nl education is individual development. Learnlng should be made agreeabln. Many studies are te be avoided as dissipat ing the mental strength. Studies should be adapted te the capacity el the pupil. Nothing should Ik) learned by heart that is net llrst thoroughly understood. Let nntlilng that admits or sensible or rational demonstration he taught by author ity. Tilings te be dnue should be learned by do ing them. Discipline should aim at improving the character. Tne teacher should be an example, in Iierseu ami conduct, el what he requlres of lis pupils. Religion iset supreme imeruincp, nnd In addition te religious Instruction, the young should be acousLemod te the oxerelse'of the Christian virtues, such as tomperanep, Jus Jus tlce, compassion, patience, and se en. Turin: area few school olllclalshero lueur city lowborn 1 would specially cemiucnd the next te the last et these principles, about the necessity et the teacher's Isilug an example or what lie roquiies el his pupils. Parents have a right te expect their children le be taught at least Hid elomeuts or goutlemauly nnd ladylike conduct. And this can only be dnue by the Instructors thomselves being gentlomenand ladles, iu speech and action. Te teach clluness the teacher must llrst and always le polite. 1 have heard or ene or tw e who are net nothing llke It, in lact who never salute a pupil In it courteous way en the street, never Hay, "ir you please," or "Thank you" te a scholar ; who ceme Inte the school room without removing rlieirhats, Hit with their chairs lilted back en two legs, rest their loot upon the desk or have them swinging evor the arms or back et the chair, and invariably address the pupils llke anything olse than gentle men. Their tene and manner are mere Ilka these or a slavo-drlver or tne past or uoc-traineroi tne present, than llke these or the responsible und cultured guardians and educators of the manuers and morals et the rising goneration. Let all such, It there really be any of the kind lu our city take particularly le lieart the precoptef Cemenlus referred te. It U a true and most I Important ene. 1 1' has always been a beguiling subject of spoculatlea ler me te try te Imaglne what would Is) the state or our A morien oduca educa oduca teon te-day ir Hlshep Cemenlus had actually ceme evor te this country iu 1012, when (lev. WInthrep, of the Massachusetts colony, al most succeeded In engaglng him for the presidency of Harvard university. Would lie have been successful in engrafting his on en lightened principles aud theories of religious loierauen ana rational oducatlen upon the American mind and character t Possibly net) ler tbe old Puritans were a hard-headed set. And yet, possibly he might ; for America was In its infancy then, untram melled by many et the traditions and habits and net-work of venerable customs and lu- fltltlltlnilM. that mailA llm Introduction nt n.u.

It he had, the history of education In this country would boeou slderably dlllerent rrem what It is new. And the prosent condition or publle '.instruction would be different tee. Would It be bstter or worse T lam sure It would net lie worse In some feature. And I am Just as sure It would lie hotter in a geed many. Tilt: fact, by the way, that Comenlus ,re narrowly missed the presidency of Harvard Beems, strangely eneugh, te be unknown te all or at least hair a (I07011 el the leading writers nn and historians of education that 1 have yet seen. I'.vcn the two latest, and best iu our language, Cempayre's and Painter's, iipnr te be Ignorant of tlie fact Yet it Is a fact, resting upon no less an authority than old Cotten Mather lillnself. In his Mngnallii ChrUtt Amertrmm, or Kcceleslaatlcal History of New Kngland, published lu 1702, he thus mentions It: "That brave old man, Johannes Ames Ceinmentus, the Fame el whose Werth hath been Triimpettcd as far as mere than Threo IHiguagosr(wbereef every ene Is Hndebted unto his .amid) could carry it, was agreed withal by our Mr. WInthrep, In his Travels through the Lew Countries, te oemo ever Inte New Kngland and Illumlnate this Colledgo and Country in the Quality of President: Hut the Solicitations or the HwedlsliJ ambassador, diverting him another way, that lncomnarable Moravian bocame net an American." WlNTimef's negotiations with Comen Cemen lus took place In Helland, en the latter's return from I'ngtand, whero he had geno at the Invitation of Parliament, te devise measures for the Institution of a kind or World's University, en his own plan and te bocarrled en by him according te his own system and metheds. Hut the outbreak or the Irish rebellion aud inassacre of thou sands el Pretestants, Indellnltely postponed the execution or this project, and hastened his return te the continent, in IMZ I vimiiT Indeed quete from nil Iho iuer distinguished and roremost educators of modern times te show hew fundamentally cerrect were the views and principles ad vanced by Cemenlus almost threo centurles age.

I will, howevor, roler Importance:" bocause cause recenuj Sl XJVI arisen who prosume te deny ir, and argue that oducatlen should no iroe irem mi alllance with religion. 1 am glad te nete that en this joint as positively and strongly as en overy ether essential ene Cemenlus made, the weight or testimony, the oice or nearly overy ene or tlie greatest thlnkers or the day, corroborates him. In lact, the tendency Is dally growing stronger in favor, notel less, but of inore religion Bnd religious Instruction in our schools and cclleges. Li r me glve you the two most rocent utterances or tw e thoroughly' representative educators en tlie subject In his farewell baccalauroate address as president or Yale college. Dr. Neah Perter said : "Ne Institu tion of lilglier education can attain the highest ideal oxcellonco in which the Christian faith is net exalted as supreme; its truth net asserted and dofendod and enlorced with a forvent and devoted 7.eal; In which Christ is net lionerod as the lnsplrer of man's best atrectlens, the medel et man's highest ex cellence, and the master or all human duties." Whlle In a qulte receut number or The Xalien, I'rer. Chas. F. Hichardsen, or Dartmouth, wrete strongly ter regular re ligious services as an essential element of the highest success of a cellege, declaring that "the community would distrust a col cel cel leeo giving up such observances te mention the lowest aud meanest llrst I prefer te sav, Instead, that a simple, short, attractive Bervico In a lit and perhaps beauliful build ing, rcserved solely for religious exercisos, Is a dally benetlt Iho cellege, save when areweillv founded and maintained as a de nominatienal ene, should nover be a place of prepaganuism or sectarian superiority ; uui It should be a place where Is taught Idealism, net niaterialism ; ethics, net utilitarianism; Christianity, net lndliierentism." nnri vtie.n without religion Is a contra diction In terms. There is no such thing; unless Indoed we are willing te deny that "Kdncatlen is a development of thoWiefe ineit." Ne, befere the time comes that reli gion shall tlnd no room in our schools, there will be no room ler the schools themselves. Todlverco religien and oducatlen, Is It net te dlvorce soul end body ? And that Is death. Hut that tlme will never ceme. I NPVS. rrlnr'is I.oule anil Her llntaiul. Aix tea lialns Letter te llosten 1 rav Her.

Thore Is something In lalKir that Is en nebling te our manhood. A man who Is out or occupation somehow reels lowered In tits own estimation as well as In that of ethers. Thore Is a moral weakness In Idleness, and n cot tain moral strength In belng engaged In seme legitimate business. What la the reason el this? Laber la a IwncfU te man, net only bocause it is the ordinary and legiti mate means et securing physical subsistence, nor yet because It saves him from the temp tations and evlls of Idleness, but bocause It develops his moral nature. Hew Is this, you ask ? Is thore any vlrtue In labor apart from the wages It secures? We answer, yes. The wages earned is the smallest part of the bonellt resuttlng from labor. The chief benefit consists In the enlarge ment el Iho moral nature, caused by the geed tlmt Inher confers en elhcri. Te de something for the geed or our follewmon, for tlie community, for mankind, elovates and onnehles a man. Helflshness is the bane of our moral nature. Te lie engaged In doing something for the geed of ethers counteracts the principle of selUshneas and promotes the growth or charity, which ennobles all who exorclselt All legitimate labor does this. A mechanic is dally engaged in producing something that Is or use ler the public. It may be articles or furniture, or clothing, or implements or agriculture, or any or tlie numoreua articles required for dally use in society. I le feels day by dsy that he is con tributing something that aids In koeplng so ciety going, that aids In promoting Its wel fare, and there Is something noble, manly In this. The professional man Is engaged in the satne way in laboring for the welfare of ethers. The physician Is a public benotacter, who labors day by day, and often by night, tee, te lessen the siitrerlngs of bis follewmon, te save and prolong life, and thus te promote the welfare of society. The same Is true of the ether professions. Frem the highest calling In life te the humblest pursuit of the artisan or the day laborer, every man who engages In honest tell may feel that he Is a publle bonefactor. It may be said that every man labors for hire, and therefore labors lorhlmself and net for ethers, or It he labors for ethers It is only that he mayeallt himself. Laber may, it Is true, be turned In:.", this purely seiusli character, but this is net necesharily the case. liven hoyeml what the erdinary,i'prer Is conscious or, he has a reeling or iKS-SUn Ltd frll l.n. vAai.t.s ...I.A.I.n I. a l iu.I TVA.- R u l."?T'":,r Zr",",r.''",iVM disease by" remedies within Iho .wu. .,.,., .,.,, i.iu swi no . uuiu8 iu. n.j- is passed line hands at oeco eouipetcnt ciety. ir he labors inorely rer wages, In a I andtf&JieWhy.

This is the reeling nil laborers Hhnuld have, and this feeling swoetens tell. The man who makes brooms glorifies his Maker just as really as lie who tells In the loarned pro fessions or In the highest positions In the Rtate. The old Scotch clergyman was right when he Raid te the young man who came te ask his opinion as te ills studying for the ministry. Alter examining him as te his talents, and ascertaining that his occupation was that or making brooms, he said : "Yeung man, you cm glerily your Maker hotter by making brooms than by preachlng the gos pel." Whero this v low is laken or labor it tends toelevatonnr manhood, onlarges our spirit or charity, and often rises tn true heroism. What Is it that leads the physician te oxpeso his own lire In the midst el prevailing postl pestl postl lenco In order te save the lives or ethers? What is it that leads tlie captain te stand at his IK) it and sacrifice his own life te save the lives of theso In his vossel? N timorous in stances are occurring every day that reveal this neble spirit or solfsacrlllce, and thus bring out the belter slde or our humanity. We in America should cultivate this moral element that belongs te labor. In no country en the glebo is the laborer held in such honor as In America. Let him see te It that he maintains his neble character. It he turns his labor Inte a mero instrument or sol sel sol flshness and seeks meiely personal advan tage rrem it, without regard te his employer, then indoed it loses lis nobility. Then sel fishness en ene slde begets selfishiiess en the ethor, and it becomes a contest which can gain the advantage The same may be said or the employer In relation te his empleyes. The only euro ler this Is for each te realize that the moral benebt that results from labor is worth mero than that which is merely phvslcal. Then the empleyer and the em em em ploye will feel that they stand upon a level he far as manhood Is concerned, and that both are laboring, though in dlfierent sphores, ler the advancement of the welfare of society. ii v TivH.imu.
