Upto the end of June sixteen towns and villa ges were burned. Since then fresh fires have occurred, two of the most terrible of were at Korez and Miask. From ten to twenty houses and shops were destroyed at Korez and thirty-nine persons were killed. The bulk of the survivors were rendefed destitute. Anti-Jewish disturbances have occur red at Jastorw, West Prussia, during which a rabbi was wounded, his assail ants escaping after a regular fight with the police. These are disturbances of the same character which bave occurred at Bublitz in Pomerama, r————— Aaron At a session of the State Teacher's As- sociation at Wasbington, one of the mas- culine teachers, says the Phila. Ledger thought his own time and that of the As- sociation well spent in listening to “A plea for the study of Esthetics,” and on the day before another masculine occu- pied part of the session on an address on “The hero recognized and unrecogniz. ed.” Itwill be seen at a glance how efs fectively these exceedingly pertinent top- ics will advance the inquiry into the most profitable line of study and methods of teaching for that vast majority of the school children who never got beyond a secondary. What could be more to the point than “Esthetics” or the “anrecog- nized hero?” When will these teach- ers’ assemblages get down to the vital question upon which the schooling of more than sixty per cent. of the pupils depends? which The Examiner and Chronicle, Baptist, comments thus upon the temperance question in North Carolina: The attempt to pass a prohibitive lig- wor law in North Carolina has failed, the constitutional amendment being voted down on Thursday last by a large ma- jority. Unfortunately the matter wus made one of party. The Democrats orig~ inated and advocated the amendment, and the Republicans opposed it The negro vote is what settled the issue, and the way in which the vote was ma nipulated shows the imperative need of educating those to whom the ballot has been given, The negroes were suspi- cious of the movement from the first, be- cause of its origin, and their ignorance and fears were worked upon in the most unscrapulous manner by the Republi can leaders, many of whom were engaged in the manufacture and sale of liquor For instance, it is said that negroes were told that the law proposed would break down the public schools, take the right to vote from the Freedman, and actual- ly reduce them to slavery again. A specimen of the effect of these false- hoods can be seen from this passage from a sermon preached by a colored minister: “De Scriptures say dat dare ghall be one law for all, and dey is tryin’ to take the wiskey from the poor ¢ullud man, and let the rich white man drink all he wants, I've got a head of my own-I'm not to be turned about by larned Professors.” With such material as this to work upon, it is not strange that the “poor cullud man” was induced to vote for his greatest curse, and the As a polities! victory, itis one that any rty might well wish its opponent tw fo rather than itself.

The Climax of the Speculative Busi- ness Now Sopposed to Have Been Reached. A “Mutual Assessment Birth Associa- tion” has been organized at Laurelton. It provides that legitimately married members who have been counected with the company one year can have their in- fants (born after one year’s marriage) insured, That is, they can secure from $1.000 to $3,000 when their infant is born, after one year of married life, A policy of $500 costs $4.50, and for $3,000, $24. All members are taxed $4 per an num, payable semi-annually, To illus trate the operations of the company bet- ter it may be said: A and B marry. They take out a policy for $1,000 at once, They pay $9 for it, and $4 additional as yearly dues, At the end of their first ear of married life they pay another instalment of $4 annval dues. Then, us soon thereafter as a child is born to them they are to receive full tace value of their policy, No birth within a year af- ter marriage ie puid for, No allowance is made for twins or triplets. Hach mem ber must pay $1 assessment whengver g child is born in the class. There are no assessments the first year, but the anou. al dues must be puid, no matter how BR de Bs i : Prasident is now incapable of pertorme ing so simple ah « fHeial aes as the signing i * n appears positively | Missin ola © itha ful owing sintement whith wis pul lished a day or two ago in the Tribune in i i its Washington correspondence | ’ i 3 , x } I “The President has indeed written his {signature ones »ince be was woul ded, but [iL was not un offi foe day i ; sof i before yesterday anniversity ol <b i now si | ml signature Was ihe dren the avenl fthe birth of the of | Mentor, at d in commeratlt {the members o @ family her te the i1llie One Mie ol a ROL Up An It was pen was iL Was wibum held up before the resident, a his hand, and the resu which ¢an be recoghifed { placed in | something without mueh difficulty as the sutograph signature of the It is ¢ hed | 2nd shgular, however, in coming | yours be an apt reminder of the physica | weakness to which the wrber i { $ i | 1 ! i resident and will was Induced { by the bullet of the assassin,’ w) without much difiic of the PP However interesiing this scrawl jean Da recone sd » $ . } { ty as Lhe autograph slgnniyure « ident may bere aller become from a : r os — sist in gotting thelr supplies of books {through the middlemen (who must be paid The first literary revolution consisted in| tor thelr services) instead of from us dis the publication of standard books In evs | TEOL and we a largo expenditure for ndver. sry department of literature at from ones | HOR will ulso continue to be necessary, third to one tenth of their former cost, {in finding out new customers, we must Tho second literary revelution oon«sg| SUPUDUE to hold to our present row in a still further very great reduction | Prices. in order that we may be able to {eonditionsl) oven from the revolution | P™Y thess enormous fx penses for ndvertis prices, while, at the same time, the aver: nd and fur commissions to middleman age quality of the books will continue to! fut because we are thus compelled to be materially better [iz bust buyure genurnily with thew e £3 Tha Mg [HERYY nxbenran, Lhere 1s NO 0CCaRiONn Why + How Unt These Things Be ?

The languge of the clause 15 that “'in case of the removal of the President from office, or of bis death, resignation or inability to discharge the powers and duties of the sid office, the same shall devolve on the Vice-President, and the Congress may | by Inw previde for the case of removal, | death, resignation or inability both of the President snd Vice-President declaring what officer shall then act as President, and such officer shall then act necordingly until the disability be removed or a Pres. ident be elected." 1{ thie clause were to be construed as meaning that no person can be President of the United States save by a regular election to that office, but the person elect od as Vice-President of the United States ehallin certwin contingencies discharge the duties of the Presidency without becom» ing himself a President, there might be less trouble in meeting the contingency with which the country is actually con. fronted A Vice-President could cense 80 to act with dignity and propriety upon the recovery by the President of bis own ability to act. But the force of this clause of the Constitution was first tested not by the temporary di-ability but by the death of a President, and when Vice-President Taylor, in April. 1841, found himself calls ed upon to act under this clause he ex- pressly refused to do this as a Vice: Presi. dent acting as President. He pronounced an “‘innugural uddress’’ on the Hh of April, 1841, in which he declared that be bad ‘devolved upon him the Presidential office,” and that he had been called by the dispensation of the Almighty “to the high office of the President of this Confed- erncy.’”” Again in his first Bank veto, Mr. Taylor spoke of himself as having ‘succeeded to the Presidential office.” Ifthe clause is to be construed as a whole and the interpretation of Mr, Taylor adopted as it had been in two subsequent instances by Filmore and Johnson, and sanctioned as it bad been by the assent both of the co-ordinate branches of the Government and of the people—is to be uccepted, it would seem that the Vice. President once called in to discharge the duties of the Presidency “succeeds to the Presidential office,’ censes to bea Vice.

It is well established that fertalizers made up of these constituent parts, cost from $85 to $40 per ton. To illustrate the cost of first class fertilizers we make the following quotations {from New York commercial lists of July, 1881; Nitrate of Potash (potash 95 per ct ) per 1b. 74 to 8} cts. Sulphate of Potash (pots ash 44 pe- cent) 8 to 4 ots. perlb Bul, phate of Potash (potash 27§ per et.) 14 to 1% cts, per Ih, German Potash Salts (pots ah 12 to 15 per cent) per ten $12 ro $16.
