BLIMBER: One of the healthiest signs of the times is the | disposition on both sides of the Atlantic for Tetorm im educational principles. Reference bas already been made in these columns to the | Movement in Evglsed in favor of adopling a syMem of elective studies in University eda- cation, and especially of substituting the stady f the modern languages for the Greek aud Latin in which so much time is wasted in gain- ing a smattering, rarely of service in after life. In this cirection we notice that recently two British autborities of some weight —Mr. Dilke. in his beok “Greater Britain,” and the West. inster Revirw.—endorse with much emphasis the system of University education adopted in the State of Michigan, one principle of which is the system of elective studies, and the other the abseuce of all competition. Probabiy the most democratic school im the ‘whole word is the Stace University of Mi gp, situate at Ann Arbor, near Detroit. cheap. large, practical; twelve hundred stu- 1s, paying only the ten dollarsentrance tee, And five dollars a year during residence: and living where they can in tne little town, attend the University to be prepared to enter with knowledge and resolution wpon the affairs of their future life. Of the course of study “it is harder to say ‘What it does include than what it does not.” ‘The twenty heads range over philosophy, phi- | lology, art and science; there is a branch of | criticism, one of arts, of design, one of flue arts. | Astronomy. Ethics and Oriental languages are | all embraced im the general scheme. A few only are educated by having their minds un- folded that they may become many-sided men; | bat all work with «pirst and earnestness. The | crime, the war with sim, the war | | | ‘With death—Law, Theology, Medicine,—these are the three foremost of man’s employments: to these, ne ordiagly, the University affords are, and to one of these the stu- | trance-examination passed, often | published bys Tas Inrerwat Revesce Deragruenr. ‘The statement telegraphed from this city, and mber of our cotemporaries, to the effect that Mr. Com ir bg Pro- poses to hold the Republicam m: of Con- gress responsible for the Internal Reverue of- ficers im their districts, and thereby relieve himself ang the Secretary of the Treasury from | much labor and trouble im the premises, is ‘Wwithont foundation im fact. In the first place, the matter of appointments to the internal revenue service does not rest With the Commissioner, bat with the Presi- dent, through tbe Secretary of the Treasury, Undoubtedly, the Commissioner will be con- sulted with reference to the persons chosen to carry out the laws relating to internal reve- | Bue; and, from the nature of things, his recom- mendations upon that point will have great weight with bis official superiors. It is natural to suppore, also, that, before coming to a final conclusion touching applicants for posi- tions under him, the Commissioner will consult with members of Congress, as With other prominent and influential gentie- men, in ptblic or private life, and that he will to some extent be influenced by their represen- tations; and where appointments are made upon such recommendations, the indorsers ¥ ill be considered responsible for the character of the appomtees. But there is no warrant for supporting that the Commissioner will either surrender such power as he may have touching Lis subordinates, or fail to look to the officers themselves for a faithful discharge of their duty. On the other hand, every man in the srvice will be held to a rigid and direct accountability for the manner in which his duties are performed. Should any one calcu- late otherwise, aud presume upon such calca- lation, we feel safe in saying that he may as well be putting his house in order and casting about for some other and less responsible pur- suit in life. Hus official days will be few and & proper place to say that Sana- tors, Congressmen, and others, occupying Prominent positions in life cannot be too care- ful to recommend none but first-class men for office. Nothing tends more to the demoraliza- tion of the public service than the indiscrimi- nate endorsements by well-meaning people of all the persistent seegers after office, wh» ap- ply to them for certificates of character. Let them recommend none but honest, espable, and diligent men, by whose records they are them- selves willing to stand, and one fruittal source of difficulty will be removed. And no better tume will occur for the adoption of this raie than now: in the beginning of an administra- | tion pledged to economy, peeereanent, and reform. 87 The Wisconsin House of ‘ianareset has passed an act to repeal the Inw enacted by the preceding Legislature to disfranchise de- serters. 87 The Columbus (Ohio) Journal pointedly remarks that “every cord of wood given to tha poor here will be so much fuel saved from us» gives bis entre ume. ‘These things are democratic: but it is not in them that the es+entiai demucracy cf the Uni- versity is tobe seen. There are at Michigan | } @o hovor lists, no “classes” in the usual sense, Ro orders of merit, no competition. i It might be supposed that these two depart- ‘Gres from the sy m of older Universities were | irregularities, introduced to meet the tempo- | Tary embarracsments incidental to educational establi-bments if young States. So far is this from betng the cas the clearest-sighted | Wen of the older c: O assimilate their teaching sys to that of Micbican—at teast im the one point of the ab- sence of competition. They assert that toil | Performed under the excitement of a herce | struggle between man and man is unhealthy Werk. different in wature and results from the loving labor of mem whose hearts im what they do: toil. in short, not very easily distin guishable from slave-labor. The students first graduate in science or in Bu Arts degree. and then pursue their elected study, im & course which leads to no uni- versity distinction, and yet the Michigan pro- fessors say that “a far higher average of work and renl knowledge is obtamed under th: tem of independent work than ts dr: colleges wher@*competition reigns.” In the view of Mr. Dilke, and the West- Minster Kev, unlimited battle between man smd man for place is sufficiently the bane ot | the world not to be made the curse of its schools. Competition breeds every evil which | it is the am of education, the duty of an uni- | versity. to suppress: pale faces, caused by ex- | | | s Sys- of in cessive toil, feverish excitement that preve true work. a hatred of the subject on which the toil is spent, jealousy of best friends, sys tematic depreciation of other men’s talents Tejection of sil reading that will not pay,’ extremely wobealiby cultivation of the mem. | ory. general degradation of labor,—all these | evils, amd many more, are charged upon the | competitive system. ‘This is a pretty sharp indictment, but wno | een say that it is nota true bill! And its truth bas a deeper significance in this country, where our children are of a frailer physijue | than English youth; more nervous, and liable | to greater injury from excessive brain-labor, | nd the excitement of competitive study. And | the evils from this feverish competition are per- | haps even greater amongst the lower grades ot | schools than in the universitie ‘The election of the Union Pacific Railroad Director+, which was to have taken place yesterday in New York, was stopped by an | injunction i-sued by Judge Barnard at the in- stance of James Fisk, Jr The old board holds over, and is, with two exceptions, the same as the new ove. Judge Barnard bas issued an order for some six or eight of the directors to appear before bim to-day to answer foratleged contempt of his process. President Grant has | Teapponted as Government Directors of the | road, Jobn Black, ot New York, and Jesse Wilhams, of Pennsylvania; and bas appointed Ss pew directors, Messrs. Price, (ex-member of Congress from Iowa.) Harris, of Spriugtield, Massachusetts; and Webster, (late aide de eamp of General Grant) from Illinots. All these gentlemen were present at the board yes- terday. The Commissioners removed by President Grant were Gen. Frank Blair and Mr. ©. H. Snow. ‘The finger of that astate railroad diplomat, John W. Garrett, has been found at work in the fashioning of another notable pie.

The first representation of “Our American Cousin” by Miss Laura Keene and her excel- lent company at Wall's Opera House last evening, was dramatic success. The house was crowded with a large and fashionable Sudience, and the performance was one of the most finished ever seen here.
