THE POCIOEiU 07 11/CNOAT iscimets
The Reformists Itausfrawnd, edited by
Rev. B. BillBMIB, asks the question in
the last leave: "Whence originated the
Sunday school!" It answers It In the
following way: "It has been usual to
say that Robert Ralkes founded In Eng
land the first Sunday school in 1781
From thence It Is thought to have been
brought to New England. But now, is
a recent publication—the Sabbath
School Index—which is highly commen
ded by the press, It Is said, that the first
Sunday school of which we have an offi
cial report, was founded 41 Ephrata,
Lancaster county, Pa., by Ludwig
Strecker, in 1747. During a period of
more than thirty years, the school was
carried forward with great prosperity,
until In the Revolutionary war the
house in which it was held was conver
ted into a soldiers' hospital." This
book says further: "In the year 1527
Luther founded his celebrated Sunday
school lu Wittenberg. Knox, In 1560,
established similar schools in Scotland.
In 1580 Borromeo, the Archbishop of
Midland, established Sunday schools in
the Lombardies. Our Heidelberg Cate
chism was publlshedsin 1563. In 1573 it
was divided into fifty-two Lord's Days,
In order that Hie children might have a
lesson for every Sunday in the year. It
was also made the duty of the ministers
to assemble the children on the after
noon of every Sunday, and instruct
them in the Catechism. It was quite
natural for a Christian gentleman, such
as Strecker was, who was raised in Ger
many, to found a Sunday school at
Ephrata "—Ref. Church Afessenger.
ENCOUNTER RETWEEN AN ELEPHANT
10333333
A very extraordinary encounter be
tween a rat and an elephant has recently
taken place In the Garden of Plants,
London, which was witnessed with In
terest by hundreds of persons.
The keepers were engaged in destroy
ing a great number of fete; when one of
them escaped and ran to the spot allotted
to the elephant. Seeing uo °trier refuge,
In the twinkle of an eye the rat saugly
ensconced himself In the trunk of the
elephant, very much to the elephant's
dissatisfaction. He stomped his foot and
twisted his trunk around like the sail of
a wind-mill. After these evolutiens he
stood suddenly still, evidently redacting
ou what was best to do. He then ran to
the trough where he wax accustomed to
drink, and plunged hie trunk into water,
thee returned to his den, and raising his
trunk, with the water he had absorbed
he dashed out the unfortunate rat, which
was in a sheet of water like that flaming
from a lire engine. When the rat fell to
the ground, the elephant seized hint and
made him undergo the immersion and
projection four times. At the fourth
throw it fell dead. The elephant, With
majestic air, but cool and placid, crumbed
his annoying little enemy with his foot,
and then went around to the spectator"
to make his Usual collection of cakes, su
gar and other dainties. The feat was
received with vociferous applause, whieb
the elephant seemed fully to understand
and appreciate.
A CRACKING BRIDGE —An °heav
ing man, who was recently traveling on
a train, noticed a gentleman and lady
seated in close juxtaposition, and judg
ing from their conduct, imagined that
they were exeeedhigly - intimate. In
front of the einnfortable pair sat two
Germans. When near a certain town
the tntiu passed through a dark bridge.
Amid the thundering and rattling of the
carriages could be heard a noise that
sounded for all the world like a concus
sion of lips. Such hearty smacks star
tled all the party. As we emerged into
daylight oue of the Germans slowly
drew his spectacles down over his nose,
and exclaimed, "Veil, I Links dish led

down her veil, and for the remainder of
the trip looked mute and quiet.

wanted to meet her by moonlight alone,
to which she wrote a consent. She came
to the rendezvous veiled. They walked,
he talked, he made love, and finally
gained consent to take a little kiss ; the
veil was raised for the purpose, and the
love-stricken gentleman gazed upon the
comely features of his own wife.

HOW TO CLARIFY FAT.—/U every
household, more or less fat of various
kinds will accumulate, which cannot be
used in cookery from its being mixed
with foreign substancee, as, for instance,
the fat after frying sausages, or the fat
from mutton. This fat is frequently wast
ed, or at least converted Into soap grease,
by the young housekeeper, who is igno
rant of the fact that by a very easy and
cheap process it can be made nearly aa val
uable as the best lard. Don'tdet this ma
terial be longer wasted, but try the follow
log plan ; To every quart ofsuch fat, peel
and slice one good-sized raw potato ;
place the fat over the tire and put In the
potato, and cook until the potato is cook
ed up to a scrimp; then remove from
the tire, skim out the potato and throw
away; let It settle, and pour off the clear
fat, which will be quite ae sweet and in
odorous tut fresh lard, and can be used
for any purpose that lard may be used.
A ClatlollB method of killing rats is
recommended le a German journal as
very efficient. A piece of slew or unused
sponge la cut into small pleoes,which are
smeared with butter and placed within
reach of the rats, next to a dish of wa
ter. The rats eat the sponge, and brimm
ing thirsty, drink the water, which
swells the sponge, and in a short time
kills the animals, which are found dead
all around.
AN exchange sals - that a hen has the
capacity of laying six hundred eggs, and
no more. Usually they lay a few the

ty to three hundred and seventy in the
next three years; and the rest from the
fifth to the ninth year, inclusive. The
true econemy, therefore, is not to keep
hens after their fourth year.

CIESEI.4I. V. S. GRAN!
We have, before, called attention to
the syoophantio laudation of Grant, to
which the Radicals resort to mother
the general mistrust inspired by certain
triats in his character. Colfax lately
prostituted the famous eulogy pro
nounced over the grave of Washington.
He applied to the untried Radical can
didate for civil °Mee, what was said, and
could only be said truly, of the com
plete career of the great and good man,
I approved in each sphere of public ser
i vice, When Colfax called Grant "first
in war, first in peace, and first in the
hearts of his countrymen," it was a
disgusting profanation, reminding us of
the servility of the degenerate days of
Rome, when the living Emperor was
worshipped as one of the gods! While
Colfax makes Grant equal with Wash•
ington, our neighbor the North Ameri
can puts him far above Scott. His vie-
Write, our neighbor tells us, were over
"Mexican militia." This we did not
know. We thought that standing
armies and a chronic, state of war were
the characteristic of the Republic
which long atibrded to us a salutary
warning against beginning civil strife.
Perhaps it was also with British "mili
tia" that Scott fought at Bridgewater,
and Erie, and Chippewa, and Lundy's
Lane. Nay, by an odd contrast, after
depreciating Scott, the North American
cabana the Confederates, and their
Generals, Lee, Beauregard, Johnson, as
a way of exalting Grant, to whom the
credit of conquering them all is ascribed.
We are willing to accord to them all
the credit they deserve; but no one of
them, in our Judgment, ranks above
old Winfield Scott in any military quali
ty. In one particular, even the North
American will not compare Grant with
him. When Scott was before Vera Chas,
be was urged, by some of the young
officers, to take the place by storm. He
said, caluily--"Il win surrender to-mor
row; and if one soldier fell in an un
necessary aasault, I should count myself
We murderer." This, too, front the man
who, in his Canada campaign, by reek•
less, desperate exposure of his own life
(not the lives of his men), drew from
General Wilkinson the reproach that
pewits Atter to be* knight errant thau
a general.
• We will concede to the North Ameri
can that the Confederates were as good
soldiers aa our own. It Pays:
We have never forgotten that they
were out countrymen, and brave ones,
too: men of the same race with ourselves,
only ,very misguided, and in great need
of being brought to their sober senses.
But we concede only that they were
our equals in circumstances, and man
to man. We accord to them no superior.
Ity that could make up for inferior n UM
hen.
Let us make a comparison. On the
10th of Meech, 1864, Grant, In pursu
ance of an act of Congress, took com
mand of the armies of the United States,
then reported as one million of men.
For his movement against Richmond he
used Butler's army of thirty thousand;
Sigel's of seventeen thousand, and the
Army of the Potomac, one hundred and
forty thousand- Lee's army amounted
to fifty-two thousand six hundred and
twenty-sta area (see Swinton's Army
of the Potomac). If the Army of the
Potomac met terrible obstacles in its
route to Richmond, it was more the
faultof Grant than of Lee. It was Grant
who allowed that route to be prescribed
to his army. And this shows a weak
ness In his character, a subserviency to
politicians, which, now, must not pass
unnoticed. A movement ou Richmond
by water, was an obvious, easy way to
reach it. Grant gave his decided opinion
in favor of it (Swinton, page 408). lie
was turned from it by politicians. They
did not want him to carry out 3feClellareli
plan. lie yielded to them, and the re.
ault fe known. Every step on the over
laud route proved It a bloody, disastrous
blumber. After twelve days' waste of
life at Spottsylvania, Grant marched
away from those Impenetrable lines; his
hew there and in the Wilderness was
more than forty thousand men. Thir
teen thousand fell in as fruitless an at
tack at Cold Harbor. One hundred and
seventeen thousand men was the total
loss entailed by Grant's subserviency to
the politicians, in taking their route to
Richmond. When he at last reached
the James River, he wanted a new army.
In reinforcements - he received ninety
seven thousand men. With these and
the converging army of Sherman he
I reduced Richmond. But when? His
often quoted boast of "fighting it out on
this line, if it took all summer," spoke
I 111 for his military sagacity. It was like
Seward's ever recurring prediction
of "peace In thirty days." It took Grant
all sosanser, all autumn, all winter, and
all the spring of the next year to get
into Richmond. He entered it in April,
1865. With his force untreated he could
have captured it from the headwaters
of the James or the York River, In a
few days or weeks, with little ur no loss
of life. By the course be took be did
not even cover Washington. It was
I never in greater danger than from
Early's march on It In July, 1864.
We recur to these things in no spirit
of detraction,lut In Justice to the living
and the dead, whom Grant's flatterers
depreciate. Show as In this campaign
a 'tingle gleam of that military genies
which attains great results with small
means, or that "beadwork that spares
human life." For the necessary effu
sion of blood In war, the general is
not answerable; for the unskillful
waste of life he is responsible—at least
in the estimate of his claims and his
abilities. We rank Grant below Scott,
In all the estienthils of a great com
mander. If Grant Is to be classified
with other generals, it must be with the
Russian Oughermw, or the Oriental con
querors who thought any advantage
cheaply purchased, if it cost only the
blood of their men. His capacity's liar-
