THE ART OF COMPOSITION, How it is Tanght in the German Schools, Correspondence Boston Journal, In still another branch have the Germans succeeded. American teach- ers know to their sorrow the difficul- ty encountered in educating scholars to be easy writers ~that is to write what is generally known to us as essays or compositions. The fault lies here just where it does in all our other higher studies —it is not begun early enough. We wait until we think that their minds are a trifle mature and then come upon them with a wild rush of rhetoric, history and all the frightfal curriculum, (German girls begin to write cssays when they are about years and con- tinue to do it, not once a month or twico a quarter, but every week of the school year until they are 16 or 18 years of age. For the first year it takes the form merely of a dictation with an occasional - original essay. Twelve German poems are learned during the year and may also be used as material” for compositions in prose, Entering the class above this, T found a method in progress, certainly very strange to the most American schools, The teacher was a gentleman; the irls were ten years old on an average. tanding out before the class, he began to tell them the fable of the woman whose hen laid for her daily a golden —a story told so simply, every wfifi of it weighed so carefully, every idea expressed with the acme of precision—and all in a voice 8o low and distinct that the class sat hushed a8 he spoke, and moved not a muscle till he finished. He then began it again, pausing this time at the end of every sentence to talk it over with the school, asking what nouns, what verbs, wfut uf cotives, they had noticed as he talked. In this man- ner he carried them through the fable to the end, Finally he called upon one little girl to repeat what she could of it. Where she failed others came in to help her. Then another irl took up the story and told it tter, until, after many times told, the fable had entered all these little minds and become a fixed mental possession, and when the master asked; ‘‘Now, do you know it quite well?” “Doch!” "~ “Doch!” ‘“Ja, ja! gewiss!” went up in a shout from all parts of the room, ““Weli, write all you know about 1t and bring it to me Monday.” Tno Barge Route, San Finucisco Chronicle, July 8, The St. Louis papers note an im- Btmmt improvement which is now eing made in the baige system of grain transportation on the Mississippi which will give still greater advan- tages to the river over the rail routes to the seaboard than those now possessed. This improvement is a perfect system of ventilation, which has been introduced by Capt. Lowrey, president of the St. Louis & New Orleans Transportation Company. It consists of openings on each side of the barge, through which the air passess into and through a space be- tween the hull and exterior of the sides and bottom of the barge, and also a funnel box running from the deck to the grain room. A stiff current of air is passing through this intermural spaco and through the funnel all the time, and keeps the corn or wheat fresh and dry; so that a cargo of wheat 1n one of these venti- lated barges could remain all summer on the water without injury. As a matter of fact the barge system has worked admirably without this im- proyement, for the instances are very rare in which corn becomes Lieated on the ge to New Orleans, The weigher at New Orleans, for example, reports that of the 30,000 bushels of wheat recently shipped from 8t. Paul by way of Now Orrunmu for Liverpool, the entire loss was only 60 30-100 bushels, of which only 1} bushels were damaged in transit by barges, The loss from western points to New York is said to average 1 per vent. The facts of actual experience demon- strate the groundlessness of the cry that wheat shipped by the river 1oute is linble to damage by becoming heated. But the new improvement will, in connection with the others already in operation, give the river route a considerablo advantage over the railroads, in respect of its secur- ing the grain from injury in transit; fora perfect system of ventilation is alroady established at New Orleans in connection with the elevators there, whereby the grain is thoroughly *blown in the process of transfer. The best to the Ad.vm the river route for the shipment of grain to the seaboard is the deterrination of the Chicago and trunk railroads to reduce the rates of grain from all points on the Mississippi to the river prices. But river prices are capable, with in- creased facilities and larger capital employed i, the business of river transportation, of reduction to a point far below the actual cost of trunspor- tation to the railroads, Hence 1t is quite certain that the contemplated action of the railroad companies, while it may temporarily delay, will not prevent the permanent estab) ment of the river route, and that soon, as the main outlet of grain exporta- tion for the states of the Mississippi Valley. One great obstacle to the rapid dovelopment of the river traffic is that most of the railroad lines touching at river points are along east and west lines terminating at Chicago and intersecting the river on their way thither from the remote termini on the Western plains, ] —— Christianity as Socially Praotised.

She said yesterday, ‘‘Ma, evorything I do for the dear pa'son will {)u in blue, cause that suits his complexion. And s0 it does. She's getting up some lamp mats in blue this very minute.” “You don't tell,” snorted Mother Bartleben, ‘“‘my Sophanisby was going to make some lamp mats, but the pa’- son said, 'Bisby, dear,’ he calls her Bisby: said he, ‘Bisby, dear, no lamp mats, please, If you must do some- thin’ for the church, make me some underclothing of red flannel.” You know Sophanisby is very dark. That's why he wanted 'em red. Then sheis makin’ a yellow footstool for him, and he u{u he will always prize it 'cause it will remind him o' the sunsets in which he set around with her.” ‘‘How beautiful his ideas flows!” murmured Mrs. Specklewiggin, cast- ing up her eyes. ‘‘That sunset is so poetical, and the yeller is 80 apt to re- mind him of Sophanisby! ~Always said he was masterful in expressing things. Minervy is making a green cushion for his cane bottom chair,and some time when we amn’t very busy, you might come to the winder and seo it." “If you expect him to sit on it, you'd better send it inter our house, and teil her to make it wide enough for two, or it'll never be used,” quoted Madam Bartleben, “‘Green is a gocd idea as representing how Minervy will look when the keerds como out for the wedding, Sophanisby is spinnin’ a red fish line for him now.” ““Wall, isn’t that lucky? I knowed she'd do most anythin’ to catch him, and told Minervy so, and she's em- broiderin’ some claims for bait.” “That's just like her!” exclaimed Mus. Bartleben, in admiration. “‘She knows what she’s accustemed to bite at and she thinks he'll land her! Isn't it a pity she’s so old and fat?” “That a story!” howled Ms, Specklewiggin. “Cause she don't look like a bent hair * pin, as Sophanisby does. You think she's fat. She's lost five pounds this week!” “‘Oh! goodness gracious me! Oh! the brazen huzzy! No wounder we haven’t seen her around! T always thought —oh! and she has been tryin’ to associate with my Sophanisby!

He is owned b; Mr, George H, Holden, of the Sixth avenue bird store, New York, and wonderful statements are mado of the sayings of this remarkable bird. Par- rots live to be a hundred years old. This follow is only five years old, and some wealthy family at the second centennial anniversary of America’s independence. Ho is a pure African gray, very handsome, and has been named “Jim Blaine,” as he is looked up to as the premier of all birds, Mr. Holden assures us that the bird is the best-trained one in America; that he can whistle a jig, & French march, and sing a song with words, He crows, barks, mews and cackles; mimics a mocking bird, pops a champagne cork and imitates water bubbling. But the most wonderful entertaining accom- lishments of this scansorial bird in his talking powers, being able at this time to distinctly enunciate over one In-.mdind and fifty mnunm‘,hmd he acquires new sayings evel . At this rate he will’l’mko a fi?u nog'venw tionist by the time he is 75 years old. He says (we have space for onl a few sentences): Hello, Jim! Lool out, I will bite you! Come over here and we will have some fun. How is your grandmother? You wouldn’t bite our uncle! There's an old black dog. {’onr old cat 'll have to go to bed.

Jim- mie’s a real nice fellow when he's mind to, Can’t you give your uncle a good one? (Smacks for kisses.) I will put a head on you and you will have to go to bed, and don’t you forget it. Bow-wow-wow, there's a big dog. Poor old cat, Kitty, Kitty, Kitty, poor old cat. Good-by! Good-Bye. Did you ever hear two married women take leave of each other at the gate on a mild evening? This is how they doit: ““Good-bye!” **Good-bye! Come down and see us soon.” “I will. Good-bye!” ‘‘liood-bye! Don’t forget to come soon,” *‘No, I won't. Don't you forget to come up.” *I won't, Be sure and briny Sarah Jane with you next time.” “Iwill I'd have brought her up this time, but she wasn't very well. She wanted to come awfully,” **Did she now! That was too baa! Be sure and bring her next time.” “T will; and you be sure and bring the baby. “Iwill.
