an Increase In this Hue should be the
signal for a general lifting of the salaries
of teachers, a matter that is net in the

Influenced by its action. We should
excel in quality as well as quantity
of schools, and the way te get geed
teachers is te offer geed salaries. The

contrasts strongly with these In the

BOOKS AND AUTHORS.
Da. MuHLKwsEne, by William Wither
force Newton, D. I). American Itollgleus
Leaders. Houghten, Mifflin A Ce., Bos Bes Bos
eon and New Yerk,
The Lancaster critic must first forglve
Dr. Newton's ovident contempt of the Lan
caster of 1825, before he can rovlew his
book en Dr. Muhlenberg with Justice ; but
If he can forglve this he will pronounce
the book well worth the readlng. The
author speaks of tbe book as a study rather
than as a biography, but It really Is a
onieny. Howevor, evon a simple biogra
phy or this geed, great man, must m a
eulogy. We all knew or his greatest un
dertaking, St, Luke's hospital, and the In
dustrial community or St. Jehnsland. His
character was a clese combination or
strength and love j thore was a wenderful
attraction In bis personality, which made
him eminently fitted te be an educator and
leader or boys ; he thought and wrote lit
tle about methods or Instruction, but at
tached absolute Importance te the living
spirit of the toacher. The Ilov. Labertus
Van nelsketcn lu "The Churchman,"
speaks or the Flushing Instltuteas " the
only true Christian family school of our
church." And se It was then; It really
was a toacher or that whole church. Dr.
Van Hokkelon gees ou te say : " Heed was
sewn or which we are new reaping a
rich and blcssed liar vest." We can point
te the Celt school at Concord as a portion
or this harvest.
The story or his oversight aud care or the
poeriwhllo rector or the church or the Hely
Communion, and his personal ministra
tion te the patlents or fit. Luke's hospital,
would 1111 a volume; sympathies with his
peer first suggosted the Idea el St. Luke's.
St. Jehnsland was the child or his old age.
Dr.Nowten, in speaking of thlscemmunlty,
says, "notwithstanding its instant aud
ponnanent success us an industrial com
munity, established upon principles of gen
uinely Christian socialism, It ban had no
Imitators. It Is the ene typoef tnstltutlon tnstltutlen
allsm, growlngeutoriils personality, which
llie temper of the tlme has net suffered te
spread."
The chapter en Dr. Muhleuberg'schurch
msusldp Is oxtremoly Interesting, but ene
must read the whele te appreciate It ; a
short rovlew will nut answer.
Tolstoi says " ll Is the life w hlch tells, "
and Dr. Muhlenberg's llfe was subllme.
Mr. Gladstone's doliulllen of duty must
have been ills motto : " Duty Is a pewer
which rlseswlthus In the morning und
gees te bed with us at night. It Is the
shadow which cloaves te us, go whero we
will, and never leaves us until we loavetho
light of life."

F.plscepal divine. The openlng paper en
" Keck or Natural Oases " Is or inore than

contributes a pater ou " The Dogmatism

Prer. Wlldeshall, aud Is doeply Impressed
with theso werds: " The ract that a human

familiarity with which we are distinctly
and doeply conscious?"
Christian Kngelharl seeks an interview
with the professor for the purpese of find
ing out irhe can threw any light en a sub
ject by which he Is greatly Impressed ; he
startles the professor by giving him seme
or his experiences. The Scotch would say
he had been endow ed with the gift, geed
or evil, of second sight, but our author's
theory Is that these experiences, or w hat hat
evor we may call theiu, have ill ready taken
place In seme previous state of existence,
and new co me before lilin as momeilos
and warnings out of a past that was past
before Christian Iigelhart us Chilstlau
r.ng'jlliart.
The book dltlers from most of thu
books of mere dabblers In metaphysics lu
this ene particular It tpicstleus whother
the spirit existed In Its previous uxisteucu
uuder similar circumstances.
After the death of Christian, which takes
place lu the manner he himself foresees,
the piofesser questions himself, " Was the
sconeof sufleilug simply te be changed,
whlle it, uuder ether or similar clrcu in
stances, must htrlve aud suder yet?" The
professor lu his one interview with Christ
Ian confesses he would naorlllce all wealth,
fume, fortune, Ule itself, lern satisfactory
answer te his researches en this subject,
and Christian tells him he can selve this
problem and will.
Prof. Wildcbhafl alterwanls believes he
has sent the young mun te his death,
mid his agony and romerso are strongly
drawn. He destroys all papers and tecerds
lu reforence te his researches, returns te
the actlve pracllce of his medical profession,
working among the peer and wretched
without i ecempcucc, trying togive llfe te
many lu atonement for the one he holds
himself responsible for taking, mid lu the
end he finds Ged and peace.

Miss Aldrich has unwisely selected a
clergyman us the centre figure iu her new
novel, "The Feet or l.eve." The author
explains lu a nete that she did net peitruy
Paul Wolfe's eharacterns symbolic or the
class and profession he represents, but
merely as u study of human nature She
glves Bert Craw ley lu "Vanity Fair" and
Arthur Dlmmosdalelu "The Scarlet Let

Thore Is a certain amount of humor In
the fact that Miss Aldrich does net seeni te
recognize that whlle Thackeray and Haw
thorne might draw this ty of human
uaturewlth the skill it lequlres, a person
of less genius would be iinable te accom

Industry or wealth. The value of the forest
products was equal te one-thlrd of that of

farm mortgages the stupendous sum of

of costs and tlie commissioners of agents
which have been taken from the fanners
for procuring the leans which may be said
te be nut less, en the average, than suven

True we have the silver bill new en the
lapis in Congress. But it would take all

that the silver mines can produce iu that
tlme, te pay ene year's Interest en these
mortgages.
(loueial Butler ridiculed the project of
the government building storehouses mid
le tiling the farmer money ou his g.uneicd
crops. Who does net knew that all tlioe
certificates will be bought up by tlie biokers;
ami s the speculators would control
futures with an iron hand, and the middle
men make all the profits, and thu farmer
will thus sell his crop at ence and pay the
interest en his mortgage, if he wants te pay
it, which he probably doesn't ety much,
and then starve for u year. Besides nil
this preperty being safe iu the custody of
the United Slates, it would he freu from
attachment for debts, aud thus the govern
ment would hocemo ceverer up of the
perty of fraudulent debtors.

When the bill was introduced Inte the

Soualer Dawes says: The Republican
party declared uuoqulvecally for tarill re
form, anil for a reduction of the treasury
receipts te theso actual uxpeuditurcs that a
rigid economy alene will Justify." If the
senator really believes this pledge will be
redeemed lu accordance with tlie obvious
meaning of Its terms, he has that kind of
faith that removes mountains. Up te the
present tlme there are certainly no indica
tions that thu revenue will be led need as it
ought te be, or that economy will bu prac
ticed In any department of the government.
On thu contrary, it is evident that if the
policy se r.ir pursued Is continued, the
whele revenue that can be collected under
the laws as they new exist will be Insuffi
cient te meet the extraordinary demands
that will be iiiiule upon the treasury. The
surplus will he reduced, but taxatfen will
be Increased en many important articles.
A mure enumeration of the bills new pend
ing lu Congress for the appropriation of
money aud for the creation of liabilities te
be discharged iu the future, would boMilll beMilll
cient te show the extravagant nlley of
tlie party in power; nud It Is evident that
if only a small percentage of these bills
should be juissed, the existing surplus
would be exhausted and a reduction et the
rovenue postponed for many years. If any
considerable number of them ure passed,
additional taxation will be ueccssaiy, or
the public debt w ill have te be Increased,

A resident of Martinsville, In., n lined
Jerry Glvens, has received a letter from u
rich undo In California which Indicates
that the young man Is likely te be adopted
and niaile his heir. A strange famllyhlstery
is recalled by this incident. There was an
estraugeuicut between the uiun new Iu Cal-
irernta and the rather of veung Jerry, who
Is long since dead. Ilenry, the elder
brother, drifted te the for Weet, ana dis
covered the whereabouts of his young

rated a remarkable adventure in which
tbe latter was mtpNred. Seme time age,
whlle hunting in the While 111 ver bottoms,
he encountered a great nest of snakes.
This circumstance gained wide circulation
in the papers, and finally csaght the eye or

Proponed Chanice of the Taxca enlC'Isara
There was en Friday laid before the
Heuse of Ueprosentatlvesaeommunlcatlon
from the commissioner of Internal revenue
submitting certain modifications, amend
ments, etc, te existing laws with reference
te taxation of manufacturers of cigars.
The first amendment receuimeiided la
that the bend leoulred or manufacturers be
net less than 9100. Instead or net less than
(TiOO, and that the preposition requiring
the manufacturer te give an additional
bend of f 100 for each person employed by
Jilin In making cigars be stricken out.
The commissioner recommends another
amendment te the existing law te permit
packing cigars in boxes te contain twelve
or thirteen each.
His reasons for se recommending this
amendment are an almost universal de
mand bv manufacturers of clears. who
state that under existing laws they are
compelled te pack cigars in boxes contain
ing net less than 25. which results in furn
ishing gratis samples or 25 when 12 or 13
will accomplish the result desired.
He also rocemnieuds that upon sample
boxes containing 12 or 13 cigars each the
tax shall be Tour eents.

In operallng the switchboard.
Clark started te change a circuit from

As he did se his fingers accidentally came
In contact with the metal at tbe ends of oue
