reputable woman. The story fell

under the eye of an American

Presbyterian missionary, who!

writes to the Guneae Recorder a Strom; argomeat against forcing

converts who hare taken more than

one wife in heathenism to pat away

all bat one. He says: "It would

require a very clear command on the subject to justify any mission

ary saying to a man who is in the

very same circumstances that Abraham was in when Haga'r was bis

coacobine, ioo mnst send away

Awtssaaai Stylee for Han There is very little change in the fashion for men's clothing this autumn. Four-button cutaways are still the correct thing for young men. Pantaloons are not so tight. Vests are worn at medium height, with collars, execept in rough goods, where no collars are worn.

Soma dress suits are made of a Jfine

diagonal, bat the majority are of

broadcloth, with three-button vests

eat very low. In frock suits the coats are buttoned very high, and

the skirt rather short, just covering

the knee. Corkscrew and diagon

als are mostly need. In rough

goods doable-breasted pea jackets

with silk facings are worn, and are

made to fit very closely. The col

ors of the rough cheviots, xc, are

very loud. In trousers a quiet

stripe is preferred.

There is a marked change in the

style of hat. The fall Derby is round, with a slightly tapering crown. The brim Is not broad, and carls well into the crown.

Brown is generally preferred to

black. Shoes , are not so pointed

at toe toes, tlandkerchien gener

ally have fancy borders. Collars

are worn standing and high. Flat

scarfs of dark colors are much

worn.

a Utile lAtlsi and Lena Creek. Shakespeare's classical accom

plishments were, as we all know, "a

little Latin and less Greek," and what Shakespeare could do without,

alt bat those wbo wish to be pro

found classical scholars can man

age to forego. "A little Latin and

less Greek," is the sensible and

forcible plea of Mr. Charles Fran

cis Adams, Jr., in his oration before the Harvard Phi Beta Kappa

Society a society whose chief ac

quirements are excellence in

classical education. If, as Mr. Adams says, educators were not the

most prejudiced, conservative and

immovable persons in the world,

n aw

so much common sense, pacaea

like dynamite into an hour's talk,

would blow the classic idol-wor

ship oat of every college and university in the land.

Beferring to his own college of

Harvard, as training-school, Mr.

Adams says he is enable to speak of h with respect. All his useful

training for life he got after he left

that saatitntion, and he will never

be able to outlive some of the disadvantages which bis alma mater in

flicted open bim through her superstitious worship of the classics.

And what be says of himself, he

dares say of nine-tenths of all graduates from every college in the

land, in these days of repeating

rifles, colleges send forth their scholars armed only with short

awards and daggers. The world,

whether it be goad or bad, is a

bustling, active nervous world, and

one very hard to keep op with; and for this active, bustling, hard

hitting world,-which cares nothing

for authority and little for the

past, "the poor old college" pre

pares its graduates to play their

parts by forcing them to 'spend the

best of their school lives in acquir

ing a superficial knowledge of two

dead languages.

Inporsaiiof Latin and Greek the English is neglected ; and the human mind is interested in something besides these buried mom

mies. Science and thoughts of today are pressing constantly on the mind, and were students not re

quired to learn Latin and Greek

for admission to college tbey

never would dream of touching them. A Gladstone and a Macaulay may owe something to a classic education, but American oratory, especially of half a century ago,

bedizened with a few scraps of

classical languages and classical

references was a national humilia

tion. Do what he will, no man

can keep pace with modern thought, and he mast choose between the living and the dead. "I," says

Mr. Adams, "would rather learn

something daily from the living who are o perish, than daily muse

with the immortal dead."

With the exception of law, there is no modern calling which does

not need a knowledge of German and French for its thorough pursuit. Without them, one has not the essential tools of his trade.! Yet, so long as Latin and Greek are required for admission to col-

legesU modern languages must be excluded from he schools, or at best only a very superficial atten

tion given to them. For childern

cannot both be fitted for college and taught the mastery of modern

languages. He confesses for himself that he has forgotten the Greek alphabet and caBnot read all the Greek characters if he opens his

Homef. Nor does he believe in the theory

that the "discipline" obtained from dassio studies at all justifies their study. The discipline could better

be obtained from mathematics. It

consists largely in memorising

rules; there is no cultivation of

logical thought, and the same pro

cess which makes a learned boy will make a learned dog. ev ej .a .'.a

JMor does toe idea that in some way the meager study of the classics infuses into the boy's mind the

spirit of Greek literature hold wa

ter any better. The theory is that it

will appear m bis subsequent work

a JS a

just as manure on a neid appears

in the crop. Bat manure must be worked into the soil. Hauling it up and down across a field, as Greek is hauled over a boy's mind, catting the ground into deep rats

with the wheels of the cart, while the soil just gets a smell of what is

jn the cart, will not get a crop.

He appeals to the experience of

four generations of his family, John

Adams, John Quinoy Adams, Charles Francis Adams and his

own, to show that after they left

college they practically dropped Greek and made little use of tbeir Latin, but derived all their success

as diplomatists abroad and States

men at Dome trom tbeir acquire

ments in the world outside. Their

college learning so fsr from helping, hindered them in their careers.

.Nor does he believe in the rare

gems of thought and expression

that he bidden in the classics. If

they are there they will always re

main niaaen to any Dot toe proC 1 m l 1 r v .

iuuquwi sonoiars. it tne same

gems were, as he believes they are,

in German or English, classic ad

mirers would not discover them.

He does not believe the classics

are as rich in them as the modern

languages. Are there any excel

ling those to be found in Shakespeare, Milton, Banyan, Addison, Swift, Goldsmith, Gibbon, 8helley,

Burns, Macaulay, Carlyle, Hawthorne, Thackery and Tennyson? If there is, the finest classic scholars have failed to translate them. As mere discipline, he would prefer German to Greek, French to Latin. He would do away with the silly idea that a man is in educated man because he haa studied the classics superficially, but not one, though he has mastered, the modern laognages. He would abolish Greek as a required study in all colleges. ( This is sound advice, whioh nineteen out of twenty college graduates, who have any knowledge of the world will, as a matter of experience, heartily confirm, even

though pride and tradition may

keep them silent. It will not, of

course, be heeded ; not immediatey. But the Americans are a practical people, and as soon as they begin to realize they are paying taxes and tuition to teaoh their children a lot of useless staff they will have a reform or know the reason why. The tax payers of every large town in Michigan are paying to sustain this antiquated and harmful superstition. The Legislature appropriates large sums to keep it alive in the University. Some day they will look into it and it will have to go. Those most alive to the needs of the day are now ready to do

away with it. President Eliot, of

Harvard, is in favor of abolishiug it, but be ia overruled by the antique overseers who have been left over from the del age. From Maaamb (tils;) Journal. Death of Col. Berry Col. William Berry died at hie residence in Macomb, Ills., Tuesday, Angust 21st, at 11:30 a. m., in the eighty-first year of his age. He was born near Danville, .in Lincoln county, Kentucky, January 20th, 1803, where he lived until he was eighteen years of age. At the agej he, with bis father (hi mother being dead) removed to Indiana, settling near Bloomington, Monroe county, where aa in Kentucky, he followed the life of a farmer. In 1825 he was united in marriage to Miss Patsey A. Givens, who survives him. Although a farmer, young Berry soon devel opedia bis cjunt a$ a maa o.'

more than ordinary ability, and he was twice elected and served as member of the Legislature of Indiana. He was also elected to com- j mand the county regiment of militia, thus acquiring the title of Colonel, which he retained nntil

bis death. With hit wife and fam

ily, in 1848, he moved to Illlinois,

settling in Adams coupty, occupying a farm, just south of the present site of Coatsbunr. Here he

lived three years, when he sold out and came to McDonough county, which has ever since been his home.

He purchased a farm in Blandins-

ville township, on which he lived for eighteen years. As in Indiana,

so did Colonel Berry take prom-

inet position here. In 1858 he was the Democratic nominee 'for

representative to the State Legislature, his opponent being Charles B. Hume, Esq., of the same township, one of the strongest and most

popular men in tne .Republican party. Col. Berry was elected, after a spirited canvass, by 180 ma

jority. He served in the Legisla

ture with ability, and so thoroughly filled the expectations of his party, that in 1860 he was nominated for State Senator, for the district comprised of Fulton nod McDonough counties. He was opposed by Rev. Richard Haney, end was elected, after the hottest-fought

fight ever in the State. Although beaten in McDonough by ten votes,

Col. Berry carried the district by

238 majority. He served in the

State senate four years, since which .a a a

time be bas preferred: to remain a

private citizen.

Deceased was the father of nine

children, all of whom grew to the

estate ot manhood or womanhood.

Two have died, each at the age of

uiiny-iwu uis oiaeai eon, wno died at Bed Wing, Minn., in 1867, and a daughter, the wife of Preston Houston at the time of her demise. Seven are living, as follows : Mrs. Isaac Miller and John A. Berry, a son and daughter, residing in

Nodaway county, Mo., r Mrs. Frederick Baggs, whose home is in Car

roll county, Mo.,; Green T. Berry,

or Jfuebio, fjoi.,: Mrs. William

Campbell, of Blandinsville town'

ship; Dr. Robert A. Berry, of

Bedford, Iowa, and Miss Emma, who resides at the homestead in

Macomb.

Attention has been called anew in Paris to the Order of the Barefooted Clares. There are 18 of these nuns, and fourteen are under twenty-two years of age. The reason of this, according to a statement just made by Baron Palet, is that the rule of the Clare is so excessively severe that nearly all the inmates die young. Tbey go barefoot on the cold stone flooring; they never warm themselves at

fire, even the kitchen fire being placed beyond their access ; they

eat meat only on Christmas day ; they sleep on a narrow board ; they

must spend ten hours a day on their knees, and tbey are only al

lowed to speak to one another on rare occasions. The Abbess assur

ed the Baron, through a grating,

that more than one of ber nans, through cultivation of this grace ot silence, bad actually lost the power of forming a sentence. It may

not be out of place to inject a remark right here that the piety of the males does not carry them to the extremes to which the women are carried. The monks wear warm clothing, eat and drink all their appetites crave, and enjoy all such other creature comforts as tbey want. Looks like woman it the weaker vessel, when she can be duped ia this way. The country bas, in many districts, suffered severe. from late summer drouth. But experience has taught us to expect dry weataer in late summer and fall. No noubl there would be greater complaint were there too much rata in those seasons when vegetables, rraias and fruits are rioeaine. and would he

wholly ruined by too much wet. No

doubt editorial philosophers could, were the regulation of the weather placed ia

their hands, make improvements in spots,

but it is not likely the department as a

whole would bo better conducted than it

is under the present management.

sonae Thins ihat Science

Ooacat'l Teach. In scalding hogs, doea science teach that if the water is a little too hot the bair will not slip, that

it is set, and must be shaved off

with a knife? Every farmer

should know these things, and they must be taught. Do auy of the graduates of an.agricultural school

know that in building a stack of;

hay or grain, it must be kept fullest in the middle and well, trod down ? Do they know how to tie op and shock wheat? Do they

know how to whet a scytbef Do

they know that if the scythe is whetted op and down it will not out off the straw clcau, as it should be whetted from the heel to the Clint? Do they know how to ngthen or shorten the plow gear so that the plow will not out too deep nor too shallow? Do they know how to put up a rail fence so that it will stand, and that the long rocks should be put crosswise

the fence to act as braces, and if

this is done it will no tumble by settling? Do they know how to square a house? Science teaches them the hypothenase of a right angled triangle is equal 4o. the square of two sides, but they have never seen the application of this rule, thus they build a house pointing every way bat the right way. Experience teaches us that with a ten-foot pole a bouse can be squared in five minutes. We measure

eignt teet on one sill and make a

notch, six feet on the other sill and make a notch. If the ten-foot pole just reach from notch to notch, that corner is square, the other corners treated in the same way will be square, and also the house. Southern Planter.
