nated. Judge Henry Williams of Tioga
county was selected for Judge of tho
Supremo Court, and V. B. Hart for

kick by Chris Mageo in favor of his
candidate for tho latter place, and tho
Philadelphia delegation supported a
Fhiladolphlan for Judge, but the ma
chine was too much for them and the

pointed in not securing tho nomination
or Judge Mitchell by the republican
convention last wcok. it not Dallas,

Burned in Mid-Ocoon-London,
Aug. 20. Great oxcitoraent
was created at Queenstown bv tho ar
rival of tho Furnoss Line steamer York
City with the news of tho loss of the
City of Montreal at soa through fire
while distant 1,358 miles from Sandy
Hook. All of tho passengers and crew
were picked up by tho York City with
the exception of one boat load contain
ing six of the crew and seven passen
gers. It is thought that this boat is
lost, as Bhe could not be found by tho
rescuing steamer. If it had not been
for the presence of tho City of York in
tho vicinity of tho lost steamer when
the boats were launched ail would
probably have been lost, as the sea was
running very high.
The passongors were all landed at
Queenstown, very rauoh overoomo with
excitement and fatigue. All agreed
that the officers of tho vessol acted with
great courage and coolness.

New York Evening sun (Ind.)
"Tho pohuoians will find in tho
oourso of the next few weeks that tho
Administiation has made a lot of Re
publican removals," said a prominont
Democrat from Washington last night
at the Fifth Avenue Hotel.
"Where will the blow fall t"
"In many places; but tho most
sweeping out will bo in tho Pension
office. The guillotine is set for Sep
tember 0, and on that day not u spec
ial examiner will bo loft to tell the Re
publican talo. I know this, for I have
seen tho lottors of removal, and been
assured by Commissioner Blaok that
tho axo will fall at that time. Tho
beads to como off include all tho spec
ial examiners, in tho Now England,
Western, Middio and southern states
who have held over from tho last Re
publican reign. Theso are the richest
plums in that branoh of the service, tho
salary and fees amounting to nearly
$3000 a year. This evening I saw
tho examiner from Boston, who said
bo bad already received his ticket of
leave, and who corroborated tho infor
mation as to a general fire along tho
lino, 'in thirty days,' said he, 'not one
of us will be left' ''
Continuing, he Baid that tho samo

Practical Education in the Publio Sohools.
For tno COLOHBHNJ.
That tho last half a century has wit
nessed a vast improvement, in our sys
tem of educating tho young, is a self
evident fact, but, that there is still
room for a far greater revolution be
fore our publio school system shall
havo reached a degree of practicability
in educating young men and women
for tho active duties of life, sufficient
to supply the demand of tho times, is
also a truth which presents itself forcib
ly to the mind ot every thinking man
or woman.
Turn which over way you will, in
any of tho largo towns and cities, and
you will see crowds of idlo men and
boys, lounging about tho corners of tho
streets and in barrooms not because
there is nothing to do, but becauso
they do not know how to do that whioh
is to bo done. Many of them tho
greater number, perhaps havo spent
tholr school-days, from fivo to ten or
htteen years, pouring over tho techni
calities of grammar or committing dry
and uninteresting lessons in geography
to memory to bo forgotten as soon as
the recitation is over, or, perhaps,
many months ot valuable time are
spent on tho different osopbies and
domes, which can never be of any uso
in after lifo, in the business of earning
bread. x
Go into almost any of our publio
Bohools and oall upon a member of tho
A class in grammar to write a mani
fest, a draft, or oven a bank check and
tho chances aro ten to ono if ho is not
obliged to refer to the Dictionary to
see what you mean. A prominent busi
ness man made tho remark not long
since, in our hearing, that he had re
ceived a letter from a graduato of a
state JNormal school, in which the
graduate spoke of himself with a small
"l . lioraco Oreeley onco Baid, "1
know there are to-day ono thousand
college graduates some of them hav
ing graduated at German universities
who aro walking tho stony streets of
New York and know not how to earn
a living.
That is a condemnation ot our uni
versity system. As a preparation for
professional life I should rather say
for certain pursuits in life it may be
very well ; but when 1 see, as 1 do see,
so many men, whose oducation has
cost bo much, find themselves totally
unable with all that, to earn a living
not immoral men, nor drinking men,
but men, simply, who cannot find
places adapted to their capacities
when 1 see this, 1 am moved to protest
against a system of education which
seems to mo so narrow and so partial."
Considering these facts it does seem
that wo aro lustibablo in making tho
assertion, that with the ono million dol
lars annually appropriated to our pub
lio sohools by tho state, in connection
with the power to levy a local tax of
13 mills, niuoh more might bo accomp
lished, in a practical way, than is dono
under tho present system of school-
management.
Ut courso, it cannot bo dono by any
radical ohango in methods or courso of
study, but must bo brought about
gradually, through tho united efforts
of teachers, parents, directors, and
superintendent ; but the greatest re
sponsibility rests with superintendents
and teachers. Superintendents should
grant certificates to no teacher who is
not thoroughly conversant with all tho
laws and customs of business, and
should impress upon tho minds of teach
ers tho importance ot this branch of
education Then the conscientious
tcaohcr will loso no opportunity to in
struct his pupils in whatever will bo of
use io mum in uuer nie.
This may be dono in various ways,
and need take no time from the regular
routine of school work, but merely fill
up tho odd intervals, or spare moments.
As an example, tho teacher can get of
any merobant a difficult and complicat
ed account with somo customor, and
givo eaoh of tho more advanced pupils
a oopy to tako homo and settle during
tho evening, then, somo time the noxt
day, ho can easily find timo tocorreot
mistakes and make the necessary ex
planation to tho wholo school. From
tho Bamo sourco he can nlso get all tho
various business papers, such as bills-of-lading,
ohooks, rebates, protests,
bills of-salo, receipts, otc. and explain
their nature, uses, and forms to tho
school. Many of theso can bo brought
from home by tho pupils, or they could
bo drawn on tho board, by the teaohor
using imagiunry names, amounts, cto
but actual transactions are more inter
estlug, and tho moro interesting a sub
ject is, tho deeper wiprtssiou It makes
upon a pupil' niiud. Of course, this
Is only an example, tho same oourso of
Insti notion may bo carried on indefinite
ly throughout the term, and instructions
may oven bo given In the uses of var-
lous mechanical tools, by tho ingonious
teacher. Thus, gradually, seeds oan bo
sown that will spring up into grand re
sults, and tho llmo will Boon como
when our publio schools, and ovon high
er Institutions of looming, will "get out
of tho ruts" in which they aro now toil
ing, and strlvo to impart an education
that will bo moro praotioal, and each
future generation will como out of
school better prepared for tho battlo of
llio than their ancestors wcro.
What wo need, and will then havo,
is an education that teaohes men to
look in various directions, qualifying
thorn for different pursuits, enabling
them to do what thoy desire and choose,
nnd fitting them to do something clso
if what they select Bhall not oontinuo
to bo profitable or desirable
When this is accomplished, and our
system of popular education shall have
readied tbo highest degrco of perfec
tion and usefulness, thon, "hard limes"
and "enforced Idleness" will bo un
known except among tho lowest class
of foreign or "imported panpor labor
ers," and thoro will bo no tieo for
Trades unions, strikes, and the like,
and, whoro thousands of families now
oko out n soanty -existence, there will
be wealth and nlllucnco.

A Great Victory
A Torrlblo Caso of Scrofula
Curod by
Hood's Sarsaparilla
" In tho winter ot 1870 I was attacked with
Scrofula In ono ol tho most aggravating forms.
At ono tlmo I had no less than thirteen largo
abscesses over and aroundroyncckand throat,
continually exuding an olTeusivo mass ot
bloody matter disgusting to behold, nnd
almost intolerable to endure. It Is lmposslblo
to fully dcscrlbo my sufferings, as tho caso
was complicated with Chronic Catarrh. After
threo years ot misery, having been treated by
thrco physicians, I was worso than over.
Finally, on tho recommendation ot W. J.
Huntley, druggist, ot Lockport, I was Induced
to try Hood's Sarsaparilla. And now, after
having taken twelvo bottles, wlUiin tho last
twelvo months, tho scrofulous eruptions havo
entirely ceased, mid tho abscesses havo all
disappeared, except tho unsightly scars, which
aro daily becoming. 'smaller by degrees, nnd
beautifully less.' 1 do not know what it may
havo dono for others, but I do know that In
my case, flood's Sarsaparilla has proved an
effective specific Indeed. As an evidenco ot
my grnlltudo I send theso facts unsolicited,
and I am ready to verify tho authenticity or
this euro, by personal correspondence with
any ono who doubts It." Chasles A. Kon
