Ims an e say that is linl nl novel and slrikiuo thoughts. Its title is, "English in Schools "' He is no uiivin lo the stu-lv ol clw..ii..l lanuagi-s but believes that teacheis I1I101 under a great error. I'cbc'ici.s wi l, th. classicists that ''the learuiuir ol (.reek 1-.11 I Latin is an admirable mental exercise, but only to fffiuds in a cirtain slate and altei a certain prcpura'.ioii " IK also admits that thu ancient literatures "are a nior.1 valuable acquisition, but it is only th.w who study Greek rery deeply and rn long that can be said to make this aiqui $ltioii," Hence he argues, with great furi-e and clearness two propositions. 1. That Latin is an advanced subject that should not be placed early in education, and that it piesupposes a cerlarn preparation of ibe mind. 2. That in as much as only sonic boys arc to be deTOted to a life of study. and not all, tbat only such boy should be taught the ancient languages. and that those who leave school at four teen, snd who coariof, therefore, muter Latiu and Greek enough to lead the greater classical writers with pleasure in the oiiginsls, should not spend anytime in such studies, but should be (aught English thoroughly snd comprehensively. We have no space for hi fine reflections on these topics. They re replete with thought and are well worthy of careful consideration. We read this book with pleasure a year or two ago, and refer to it because of the opposite views presented in the Quarterly. The University ol London rcceutly passed a resolution to no longer require G eek as an obligatory subject nt Ihe ma triculation examinations. Hence, the ar ticle of (be Quarterly as an earnest plea for. Greek. Cambndgo lately came within uinc votes of deciding a tbe University of London has done. The vote wa ninety agains'. to eighty-one in favor. Oxford has uot yet decided upon the merits of a pe tition that has beeu sent tip. We Dole these discussions and decisions because hey show that tbe English people are k laxing in their old cherished demand that . classical studies should bo required inva riably of students at tho famous Univei allies. I he Apache Indians insist upon their right to make raids into Mexico, a in the treaty with tbe United Stales no(bing was said to prevent such lawless incursions. They arc about le eider the State of t h -huahuA from tSelr Alison reicrvafion. Some Congreasnwu who feel thatNhtl are loser by the abolishing of Ihe (rank ing privilege, are crying out for its reto ration. Wotcr our protest. it is said that to accomplish their purpose they wilt attach to it, as a tail to a kite, a proposi tion to repeal the postage upon newspa pers. We areppoa trysTh repeal. We believe that newspaper will make in the end by the present law. At any rate, wo would rather submit to any tax or in convenience from the present law, than have that monstrosity the franking priv ilegerestored. We hope the mail bags will never again be burdened by font lim n and extra pairs ot boots.
