This decision may be correct, but it is liable to serious diffi culties. For instance, the chan nels or mersdonot always re main in the same place Time oftens makes rreat chancres. and hence boundaries ly the decision are necessarily very flexible.

Rev. Thomas Dixon, of New York-, is writing some excellent articles for the New York Her ald on the negro in the South, la his last article on Negrj Edu cation in Southern States, he shows what we are deing to wards educating this race, and says the South today is making more sacrifices for the educa tion of the negro than many Northern States, including the wealthiest and most cultured. He contrasts North Carolina with Massachusetts, showing that our own State, in propor tion te wealth, makes about one quarter greater sacrifice for the cause of pepular education than Massachusetts. However, he thinks that the education of the negro through our com mon schools iH more or less of a failure, and more or less of a curse. That there is a lack of industrial training, and along with the rudiments of learning colored children too often ac quire a positive distaste for manual . labor. They get the idea into their heads that they must "rise," and are taught to despise the plough, the smith his anvil, the carpenter his tools, consequently the South is not producing competent negro far mers, smiths and carpenters Rev. Dixon thinks reforms are imperatively needed and he is right, too. He speaks of one of our most prominent' colored men in the following manner: One of the brainiest negroes in America, one of the truest men I know, black or white, is the Rev. J. C. Price, president of Livingston College, North Carolina. He is president of the Afro-American League, which has for its purpose the elevation of the negro through education and the accumulation of proper ty. This wau is not simply a true lover of his race he is a man of the highest attainment of character, au orator of mag nificent power. He will bo re membered aa the man whoiu President Cleveland appelated Minister te Liberia in his first term, but who declined the post, which be did cot seek, and has coatinued his work in this little village of North Carolina. Price SAye of the negio, in one of hie recent addresses to an audience of negroes: "Change the condition of the negro, aud you will change tne attitude of the white race toward him. Black is net what is the matter with you people; it is simply be cauuejou are dirty and ignorant and superstitious. Change your condition, and I will guarantee the world will change its atti tude toward you." Nerl; in Kini. This week marks what may be cl ed the beginning of the end of the iifty-second congress uud Harrison's administration. On Wednesday tha electoral vote will be counted and the election of Urover Cleveland and Adlai Stevenson as president and vice I -resident of the United States e formally anneunced, and ia a little less than four weeks the new Democratic administration will be in operation. The month that will interveae between now and the inaugura tion will be of great importance from a legislative point of view.

The World's Fair is not to be opened with an invocation, at ! the Local Directory of the fair does not think prayer is eaten tial to launch the exposition; successfully. According to the; revised pregramme just stnt out by the Executive Board the open iog and closing prayers of j the inaugural exercises are left f eut. The reasons gives for this ; action are said to be the difilcul ; tyof selecting a minister who would be agreeable te all churches aod "prayers are sot necessary on such an occasion' says one of the directors. ' Prayer may, or may not. be necessary en aucn an occasion, but it has always been custo mary to invoke a blessing on all such undertakings, and we think the custom of our country should be observed on this oc casion by all means, Jruii1e Agalkftt Kissing. Dr. Probst, Secretary of the State Board of Health, of Col umbus, O., appeared before the Pastors' Union of that town and urged their co operation in two sanitary reforms. One is to stop the custom ef indiscrimin ate kissing and the other to abolish the use e the same cup in the administration of "the sacrament by savoral hundred people. Dr. PrOfcst explained Jrat the most certain aiid-ihost danger ous transmission of the germs of disease is by Ytis mouth to mouth method. "He cited the almoBt universal habit among' ladies of k issin j friends on greeting them - or bidding them good-by, cf Jdssing babies and children and urging babies and children tokiaseach other. Pastors, too, usually consider It a part of their duty to Lies the babies of theu'.parishioners. All this was well meant, but it was as dangerous as it was per functory in many cases. lie quoted Moses as K sanitarian on this subject, and said'the great lawgiver would not have toler ated either the kissing or-the common cup custom In the sac rasaental administration. The clergymen asked fVr some prac tical suggestions: as to how to obviate the danger pointed out in the communion service. Sev eral were given, -but the one considered practical was that each cominuuic-jit have his own cup. A resolution to io all pesbible to briug abeut these reforms was adored. The Dr. evidently does net like kissing and the Tuuult of his crusade r.gaiuat it will bo anxiously watchd , alo that of .he b?ramental ci.p reform. The merchant, as he writes up his books and makes up bio balance sheet, carries to profit and loss the sum total of his operations. There is an import ant sense in which every one may profitably ir.lute his ex ample. It is weli to take an account of stock, to look over the debit and credit account, to ascertain whuther expenses have outrun the income, and to see how the sccol at stands be tween us an I th? world, witii our own consciences and with our God. It may be the round of day by day, of month by month, and year by year, in designed for the very purpose of leading us t review ui capabilities, our trusts and cur obligations. Mcbat IIalsiead thinks that every Congress should have its own president in other words, that the presidential term should not be extended to six years, but reduced to two.

The gov ernment will never be much above or below a people, bat rather an expression of their common morality aud intelli gence. Given a good people and almost any kind of govern ment would prove salutary. A decision of the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania dclarcs the publication of Sunday pa pers in that State illegal.

Mr. Har rison has not yet officially re cognized the Hawaiian commis sion're, aud their negotiations are all with Secretary Foster. It is brlieved that Mr. Harrison, who is known to favor annexa tion, is waitiag. to hear what the representatives of the de posed Queen may have to say before taking any official ac tion. In the meantime the State Department is gathering, information about Hawaii and its financial cou lition and pros poets, in oalrr that Congress may act intelligently ou the raitter nlu-u a decision is reached by Mr. Harrison.
