The Drill, her Is entirely unable te graip the Im mensity el the territory covered by the I'ntted Htales nml I, sin te Iralteve that Iloiteu and New Orleans, New Yerk and Han Krauclsce are thousands of miles dis tant from each ethor, ami Brether Jonathan Is puzzled te iiuderstiud hew such a lilt e island as Kuyland can maintain such su important position among the nations.

' The court room was crowded this morn ing, as is alwaya the cae en Thursday el lustttule week, or " director's day," as it has been commonly called. This year, hew ever, the directors hate an lnstltutoel thelr own te Ihi held In the opera house this afternoon. The streets remlnd ene te-day or a holiday. The trains tn this city te-day brought a great number of peiple.wnllemany dreve te ten. The hotels ate all tilled te overflowing, and the streets tn their neighborhoods have large numbers of vehicles. The fact that this Is dlncters' day makes the crowd much larger, The court house has been packed all day, and theru Is a large attendance at thu direc tors' meeting In tne opera heuse this after noon. Many people were iiuable tn gain ad mission te the court house, and the atreets have been crowded with smiling school inarms and their escorts all day. Many peo ple will remain In town ever night, and the entertainment at the opera house te night will be largely attended. The Institute eiwjned with prajer, and ltv. '. Ij. Fry followed with a rcqKm-dve reading and prayer. Miss Hews continued her lecture 011 her method el teaching composition by the aid of objects. There are thousand, or iliose within the low et every leacher the color of the dresses, or ribbons of the pupils, the style of thelr hat or bonnels, or shoes. Lessens may be given by blindfolding one of the pupils ami then questioning them as te the dresses et their companion and ether ob jects they had seeu or ought te have aeeu. l'lien lessens might be glven through the ether senses, hearing, smelling, teaching and tasting. Mis He, concluded her talk with a lessen en the use of cubical blocks Iu the school room. Ur. K. 1- White, principal et the public schools of Cincinnati, (., delivered a lecture en the "Klements el Psychology." He said the time has come when teacher of the com mon schools must kuew aomethlng of the human mind. They have 11 u doubt given neme attention te this subject aud want te knew mere , aud even these who de net care much about the matter will be induced te hear him. The lecturer would talk right te the brains of his hearer. Teaching, both in matter aud matiuer,iuust be adapted te the lutelllgonce of the taught. This is true in all training ; you cm net train n monkey by thn aauie method you train n herse ; you cannot teach a dull child by the inothed you teach a bright ene. We have loarued at last that we must vary our methods In train ing Iu nccordance with the nature of the child. The child of alx doe net pro pre tent te you the capability of the youth et six teen or twenty. Te what is till variation due? There are three theories te explain iL The first 1, that the mind or a child or six dlt lera In no respect Irem the mind of sixteen except that it is Itirther devolepod as the betly is by age. 'j. we-inirus 01 all 1110 scnoei books in the L'nlted ;States are based ou this theory. It Is only within the last fifteen years that another theory has been given. Geography, arithmetic aud ether studies have under the old Bystem been taught en the old theory. This method is In opposition te the new theory : That the mind of the child el six differ from the mind of the youth of sixteen in this that there are Hleeplng powera In the mind nt one that are awake In the mind of ether. This theory made obvious the necesslty of teaching the little child primary knowledge; as he grew elder he may learn conception knowledge, and later general knowledge. The third theory Is that the mind or the child el six dlllers from that of the youth of sixteen net tn the absence of any of the faculltles or the mind but In thelr rel rel atlve growth. The .laculty of the mind or the child, which is strongest when alx years old, la weakest when he arrives at six six ieen. The child Is strongest In the percep tive pewers It uke Iu all things that It Hees or hear without roasentug about them. The mree ismem wuien are tne beginnings el all kuew ledge are sense, perception, conscious- neasand intuition. Hut these powera are net enough. The mind is endewed with an other power, the power of representation, within which stand; memory enabling u te retain the form or things seen long age. Te tht is another power Imagination you see a troe In winter, you remember It forever ; but hy Imagination you oletbe It with leaves. Yeu plant a seed ; you remember alt about It ; but by Imagination you see the seed as a full grown plauL The child possesses this power, and clothe a bundle et rag with all the bealltle of n habe 1 hut It dees net fellow that the Imagination of the child Is of the ssine quality as that nf the youth.

Ilia I'regrf.ilte lleinecrscy Wants the l-smt for alt tha I'eeple, The plstlerm of the new party, the Pre grosslve Democracy, adepted at thn meeting of Ilenry Geergo's supporter Saturday ovo evo ove nlng In Cooper Union, Is given below : We, the citizens of New Verk, whocasteur ballets ler Henry Geerge In the recent elec tion, new in mass meeting assombled, glve greeting te nil lever of truth nnd Justloe throughout our country and evor the world, and ask their co-eporatlon nnd yrupatuy in carrying forward the geed work here begun. In our nominal defent, but actual victory, we hall the opening of a new era tn Amerlcnu inlltlc, the beginning of a struggle te purify our lielitlcat method, te establish the Amort Amert cm republic upon the Una rock of equal right, and te apply the principles enun ciated by our father te the ecial dlllicultles of our time. We raifllrm the principles set forth In the platform of the recent labor convention of this city as of general application te the whole country. We are American citizens de, Irons of purging our pelltlclal system of It cor ruptions and el carrying Inte fall eirect the great principle of Individual liberty pro claimed In the Declaration of lndopendonco. We are upholder of Boeial order, defender of the true right of preperty and advocate of that equal justlce between man and man which is of the ossenco et true religion. We believe In the fatherhood el Ged and nsert the brotherhood of man. By aiming at the abolition el the wrongs which promote thievery nnd compet beggary, we doslre tode away with nil class distinction bysecurlng equal access te natural opportunities, and such an equltable distribution of the products of labor that all men shall be werktngrnen and each shall be rree te enjey that leisure which I needlul rer the full development of hi whole nature. We held, with Themas Jeffersen, that the earth belong In usulruct te the living, and that ene goneratlon cannot grant away the equal right of succeeding generations te its use. We held that all men are created equal and are endowed by thelr Creater with un alienable rights te the equal ube or natural element, and that thesjtem which disin herit the nia-ve and compels human being te buy with their sweat the prlvllege of liv ing aud workings en this earth te be a funda mental wrong, which is the fruitful parent or social evils, bringing nbeut nn unnatural competition which tends te roduce wages le starvation rates and te make the wealth pro ducer the Industrial slave of the Idler who irrews rich by his tell. " We held that all that Is preduced by labor, whother of hand or head, belengs te the producer and should be socured te him. We held that the value which attache te the surface el the earth by reason of the growth of population belong 10 society nt large, and we propose, therelere, te abolish nil taxa tion upon buildings, improvements and all ethor things of human production, and by taxation en the value of land alene te pro vide ler purpese of common necessity nnd beneilL In this way we propose te make it unprotlUble for monepolizers te held lands, mines, forests or city let which they nre net putting te use, and thus te threw open te citizens who wish te make themselves home or employ their labor la producing wealth, the abundant opportunities which our com mon Father ha provlded for all hi chil dren. We held, moroever, that the advantages, accruing te society by reason of the growth of knowiedge and the perfection of Inven tions belong, alter due reward te Individual oxertlons, te society at large, and we declare war en that system which band ever public works te corporate control, and permits such benellcent agencies as the railroad and the telegraph te be made the means or robbing the producer and of enabling railroad kings and stock gamblers te throttle busluev and dictate law. We held, in short, iu the language of the organized worklugmen el New Yerk, that " true puroseel government Is the main tenance of that sacred right of preperty which gives te avery ene opportunity te employ his labor and security that he shall enjny lu fruits : te provent the strong from oppress ing the weak and the unscrupulous from robbing the honest, nad te de ler the equal benetit of all siilIi things ns can be better done by organized society than by Individ uals; and we aim at the abolition of all law which glve te any class of citizens advantages either judicial, linnuclat, Industrial or polit pelit cal, that are uet equally shared by all ethers." Since the Republican party has outlived the days or lis usefulness aud the Democratic party has beceme but a corrupt machine by the uje of which, us shown lu the last elec tion, aristocrats aud Bpellsnien endeavor te defeat the will el the people even a Demo cratic president and the Democratic governor of New Yerk prostituting their power In aid of the vllet mercenaries as against an honest effort te purllv munlcip.il politics, we hereby declare that tfie time ha ceme for an organi zation which shall be In the true sense repub lican aud in the true Bense domecratio of a real party of the peeple, a progresslve Democ racy which shall revlse nnd enrry out the principles of Themas J ellorsen. We call upon the district orgauizitieus el lilt city lormeu 10 support nenry ueorge in the li election te continue tlielr work, te threw open their doers te new members aud te de vete themselves te the education and organlzitieu preparatory te further contests. We call upon the Central Laber Union, te which Is due the credit of taking the Initia tive iu this great movement, te issue an ad dress te organized workingmen of ether cities, asking their co-operation by similar movements in weir own localities, aiki without distinction of race, color, creed, occu pation or past political affiliation, we call upeti these who held te the principles set forth In this declaration te form thomselves throughout the whole country Inte associa tions for the purpese of carryiug en the work el propagating truth by means of lectures, discussions and the dissemination of liter ature, be that the way may be prepared for political action lu their various localities aud ter the formal organization at the proper time of 11 national party. Finally, be It lleaelced, That, iu order te prometo the formation of such associations, auu te aecure unity el plan and concert of action between them, a temporary central committeo 1 here by created, te whom correspondence en this subject may lie addressed, and whose duty it shall be te take such measure a may ter ward the work.
