Months ago the Journal took position in favor of the Blair bill. ! j We did not deny that it contained objectionable features, but it was 'believed that as the discussion j 'advanced, they would be eliminated, and a beautiful aud beneficent edu cational system evolved. Some of the provisions of the bill nave been changed, but whether it insuf ficiently ameuded to make it ac ceptable to the country is not ap parent in the light before us. ? It is too late to question the propriety of the general govern .meat's contributing to education in the States, when it is done without infringing on the rights of the State or the liberties of the people. Many of our best institutions of learning are founded on the munifi cence of the general government; ?Jaodtif there is money enough in the treasury to defray the ex peases of the government and leave a considerable surplus, we see no reason: why a portion of the sur 'plus may not be consecrated to the . kDly cause of education. We do not know the exact nature of the IrUl as it is now before Congress, and sannot say whether or not we approve it ; neither are we satisfied ' tfiat there is any surplus in the treasury that is likely to survive tbjfjLarrison administration. If the bills that are now before Congress pass including subsidies for steamship companies, extensive coast defense", the construction of a first class navy and the improve mint of rivers and harbors the sarplos will be consumed and there will be an imperative demand for an increrse in the public revenue. The machinery of government ) tansrgo on, but it is essential to the prosperity of the country that the public expenses be reduced to r!ak (economical basis at the earliest moment consistent with public safe ty and domestic repose. The great question before ihe country is the tariff. Agriculture if depressed by it, and commerce is languishing because of it. If the treasury is depleted, by any means, it will be an argument in favor ot the continuation of the taiiff. If .Ihe surplus is exhausted no one need) expect the reduction of the tariff, nor any considerable modi fication of the .internal revenue The truth is, there ought never td beja large surplus, and it should be- the chief end of the present !, ' Congress to adjust the tariff to the ' j jabsblate needs of the government. Bat if thitf is not done, if the ear- plot is to continue a menace to vaults be rty, let the opened and lrom them flow streams o -knowledge all over this broad land. v Th breath of a chronic catarrh pa-tnt- b often to offensive that he be 1 s aa object of (dieguat.

Free Church missionaries in Central Africa, when the alterna tive was'to leave hU post or to jpia Capt. Lugard's expedition against the Arab slave-dealers, very brave ly decided to stay where he was, and found himself able not only to render valuable service to those who are attempting to put an end to one of the greatest curses of Africa, but to prove to their ene mies also that ho and his friends are warring not agaiust race or re ligion but against cruelty and crime. At the risk of his own life, and while iu severe- suffering, he relieved the wounded n both sides. the Arabs trustiog him to far as to send in their men lr treatment.
