; —AVo OlHirlou Francis Adams, that the .dead languages might as well be allowed tb remain dead. How much better, it seems to us, would-it be for those {pupils in the Rensselaer High School, who are-this year studying Latin, to devote'their time to- natural science l or some modern language. German, far instance, would furrush juntas efficient a mental dish cipline as Latin; and would be of some practical use after’it was acquired; and, if well learned, would be called into actual use’ often enough, after school days werfe done, to Iceep it fresh in mind, and thus not be totally forgotten, as is usual 1 y the case, witirthe “Httle failin' and less Greek”, which most peohle who study those languages coumipnly acquire. The Editorial Exctksiox. — The intricacies of a new press engaged so .much of our attention, last week, that we could not spare the time to accompany the Editorial excursion- -to- Louisville, on Thursday. Mr. H. IT W. Smith, of the Cincinnati .Enquirer, and Ills' w ife, who are still visiting at the Tax-oil place, joined the exeursiun at Rensselaer, cud report a very agreeable trip.. The. excursion train consisted of three of four Ruihnan drawing --room cars, loaded with nowspa per people, from Indiana,’ Illinois and - Miclngan. A dining car was' attached, and the stall-fed journalists were royally blasted, as is their common wont. - Mr. nr.rt Mrs. Smith stayed but one night-in Louisville, and took the train for Rensselaer the .next morning.. They visited the Exposition in the [evening, and, as theirdime was verv limited, wisely devoted it all to the art gallery, with which they were greatly ’pleased.
