Since 1880 we bave seen in the Execu- tive chair three Presidents who once occupied rostrums in country school houses, President Garfield left the tow-path for the teacher's desk, and was ail his life connected with educational institutions in one capacity or another, It is said that he contemplated accepting the presi- dency of a Massachusetts college when he was unexpectedly made the republican standard- bearer; but, of course, he no longer considered the idea after that event. President Arthur likewise wielded the rod before wielding the Executive authority. The particulars of the teaching period of the e: resiient’s life are not generally known. It is certain that he carght the western fever away back in the "50's, and set out for Iowa to garner in the wealth which was so searce among the sterile mountains of Vermont. ‘The garnering was not So easy as he expected. Like thousands of other men who have gone west with the idea that stray fortunes are wandering around there, seeking @ convenient pocket in which to re- pose. he found that work, and very hard Work, too, was the only key io nuture’s treasure chest! Having only a smattering of law and an indifferent general education, be at first sought in vain a fletd where his acquirements might bring him fortune or even asubsistence. It is said that he tried the plowsbare for a while. Then he drifted into a country store as book- keeper, clerk, porter and sweeper. Finally he conceived the happy Idea of opening a school during the winter months. This plan wasof all his western ventures the most productive finan- ciully, for in less than six months he managed by close economy to lay aside enough money to bring him back to the east and forthwith left for home. Soon afterwards he was admitted to the bur In New York, where he practiced his protession till he was appointed collector of the port.

There is a little defection among the mik dealers in the northern section of the city which has impellea one or two of the smaller dealers to “‘give away”’some professional secrets ofa delicate nature. The trouble arose throug! the prosecution of a young dealer, who has re- cently started in business, on criminal charge. The young dealer was formerly in the employ of the prosecutor, but a short time ago started into business for himself and has prospered, ‘The prosecutor is said to have become jealous of his ex-employe’ rity, and for the pur. pose of hurling jhis business has broug 8 Sriminal charge against him.

From Engineering. A group of French and Russian capitalists are seeking from the Russian minister of finance a concession for cutting @ canal between the rivers Volga and Don. These two mighty streams penetrate in their course through Russia within fifty miles of each other, at Tsaritzin, and then atrike off, one to the Biack sea and the other to ‘the Caspian. The promoters of the undertaking seek, by the construction of the canal, togive the éxtensive commerce of the Volga un outlet into the Black sea. The physical difculties are not insuperable, although sufficiently severe to lest the resources of any except @ very ywerful syndicate. The idea of the canal is by no means new, Peter the Great having personally gone dver the ground and made a rough scheme for one. His successors, however, in spite of their enterprise in canal making, have always been averse to the under- taking. "In the flood season both rivers are un- manageable, and it has been thought that if a canal were cut the Volga might some spring burst into the Don and cause a catastrophe. Of course, with engineering skill it would be easy to prevent this fear of timid ministers being realized, but it is interesting to mention that Nature ‘herselt is preparing the way for some such eventuality, the Vol re yearly cutting more and more Into its west bank, and thereby drawing nearer the Don. At present the two rivers are connected by a railway, described by Mackenzie Wallace as the slowest, worst laid and most infamous in Europe. The traffic is not very large, and even the promoters of the canal project do not think they could carry ont their project without @ considerable subsidy trom the state. a ___se¢—___ The Long Journey of Five Little Gi Five little girls, not one of them over ten years old, satin the emigrant rooms opposite the Union station, in Pittsburg, Monday night.

She fell down stairs and cut her tace a little, but the injury was so slight that it kept her in her room only a day or two, and nothing but a skin-deep scar remains to remind us of the tragedy which might have robbed us of the diaphanous goddess—but didn’t. So the dramatic season will not be deprived of its chief attraction this year. For, whatever no nse may be written to the contrary, Sarah is i the undisputed and indisputable ‘queen of e@ footlights, and if she were to cave the boards, it would take a good many Jane Hadings and Blanche Persons to console us, Some of the critics, greatly influenced by the ood dinners ofJane’s husband, M Koning,have forthe last year orsobecn trying thelr hardest to persuade us that Hading 1s ‘not only the legitimate successor of Sarah, but actuaily her rival.

From the Charleston News. ‘The Savannah News bears encouraging test!- mony to the change that has taken place in Public sentiment of late years on the subject of dueling, “Public opinion,” says the News, “overwhelmingly condemns dueling, and the number of those who advocate or defend this relic of barbarism is constantly decreasing. ‘The time when men tried their causes by the ordeal of battle, or by. walking over red-hot Ploughshares, has long since passed away, and ueling will soon be among the custome of the past, in all intelugent countries, ‘The idea of urning a question of veracity, or any kind of dispute or snarl, into a question of courage can- not long survive In this age of progress and com- for mon sense.

From the London Dally News, An extraordinary case of suspended anima tion 1s reported from Dalton-in-Furnes, A girj named Newell, after an illness of three weeks: duration, apparently died. She was placed in a coffin, and the hour that had been fixed for the funeral was drawing near, when she gave signs of returning vitality. A doctor was summoned, and the young woman is now said to be recover- ing. A iittle more than a year ago a somewhat similar phenomenon occurred at Wembdon, near Bridgewater. A laborer named George Chil- cot fell down suddenly on the 5th of September, 2884, and when picked up seemed to be dead. It was supposed that he died trom heart disease, ‘and preparations were made for the man's funeral. The Vicar of Wembdon, however, saw the body and was not entirely’ satisfied ‘that death had taken place. He therefore refused to bury the supposed corpse, but allowed it to be pluéed, in its coffin, in the church, where it re- mained fortwo days. On the 9th’ movement of the body were observed, a doctor was called in, and Chileot was taken back to his home. Al the end of eight days he recovered consclous- Ress, and finally he reguined toa great extent his hormal health. These and dozens of well authenticated instances which might be cited seem to suggest that soon after animation has apparently departed it may often be within the power of selence to revive it. Newell and Chil- Sot began, to recover unaided by any artificial suimulus, and in spite of the disadvantagoous conditions in which they were left, and it Is but natural to suppose that other apparent co! might be, as it were, called back to life if hel were at hand. Thére are probably many ill- nesses in which the patient should not be de- spaired of until loug after the breathing has ceased and the pulses have stopped heating. They Disagreed With Him.
