The report is very long, and goes into history of the Presidential elections in some detail. The present system was adopted at the birth of the republic, and was far from being popular then. It has never been considered safe by thinking men, and the events of the last Electoral

demonstrate this danger.

The latest in regard to the Tilden boom comes by special from Washington, and is that at a meeting of the prominent friends of Tilden, held Saturday last in New York, Mr. Tilden himself declared that ho would, without doubt, be a candidate for the nomination. Thu Post says that whatever his intentions may have been at an earlier day, he is now firmly resolved to ask a renomination. He was faced with the statement that he owed it to his friends to declare his intentions. This he has accordingly done. The Post says it will be absolutely necessary for him to convince the Cincinnati convention that he can carry Now York, and as the first step he must go to work to consolidato the Democrats in that State.

Iman, though a diabolical idiot, can un-; derstand, and it means business.

Do not lean your head against the wall nor tilt your chair on two legs, or place your feet on the rounds.

At a Boston woman’s rights conference soino letters from college Presidents j were read on the question of the educa-| tion of the sexes. ITesidunt Seolye of | Amherst said: “It is my judgment that at the age usually attained in a college 1 course tho distinctive traits of each sex j require so distinct a treatment that co- j education is really a disadvantage to both. Instead of being in the line of progress, it seems to me truly a retrogression.” President Chadbourne of Williams said: “To throw together for four years hundreds of both sexes just at that time of | life when their affections are most intense,; their passions most easily aroused, and they themselves without experience, is! a condition of trial to which I would subject no son or daughter, and for the i result of which, as an educator, 1 would ] never become responsible.” President j Bascsm of the Wisconsin University * said: “There is bo variety of opinion in our faculty as to the fitness of coeduca-| tion.
