These ato distinct from ball playing and boating, which, a8 is well known, have grown into such importance within the past twenty Years both at liome and abroad, Athletic sports are such ns flat races, hurdle races, long jumps, high jumps, ranning jumpe, throwing the hammer anl throwing tho cricket ball, in all which exercises the stu- dents are the contestants, The London news- papers recently Lave contained columns of reports of athletic meotings at the univer: sitios and colleges; and the London Times, inan able and serious article, asks whether sport ofall kinds is not usurping too large @ share of attention on the part of the young men who attend institutiors of learning. It is certain that in Amorien we oxereiso our bodies too litle, rather than too much, Especially is this true of students. At Har. vard and Yale boating bas been brought to much perfection, and both colleges have re peatedly organized from among thelr students first-clase base ball clube, But even in these institutions only a large minority aro actively interested in physical sports, Although many other colleges possess gymnasiums, which are of very great value in training men for ball playing, or boating, or any other interesting exercise, they are comparatively of little good to students who have no object in working in them further than to preserve or gain health and strength. It seems protty well settled that interest is the best ally of exercise; one, indeed, without which exercise must fail of its best results, Here, then, we need have no fearas yet that sport will tronch too far upon study. We doubt whether the apprehene'on in England swell founded. Of course, there are some evils connected with college eports there. The roughness with which these are often conducted secms to us to call forcensure, At Rugby, on tho 18th of November, a young Minn wae nearly crushed to death by the while playing foot-ball. If he doce ho will be a cripple for life; and oc currences sit..tse to this in foot-ball and other games are not uncommon. But that an ar dent love for sport and success In its pursu are not incompatible with high scholarship and brilliant intellectual ability, has been shown by many eminent graduates of Oxford and Cambridge. ‘The very paper which con tained the article we have referred to, printed a letter ing the names of several distin guished Eglishmen who pulled in the Came bridge boat in the University race of 1829; among them was that of MentvaL complished historian of Rome, ‘Tho President and Faculty of a college in New York recently offered to pay all the ex- penses of a Loating outfit for as many of the students as chose to join it, if they would establish a Loat club, and make boating a feature of the college, There was no re- #ponse to this offer; it was silently declined. ‘This does not indicate that the danger which is snid to threaten English colleges has any existence here, and England and The Agricultural Bureau. In President Guant’s lato message to Congress there occurs this astounding pu of an astounding humbug: “ L recommend to your favorable consideration the Agricultural Bureau for liveral appropriations, In @ country so diversified Mn cmate and soil as ours, and Wilh Pouwation 80 largely dependent upow agriculiure, the benefits that can be conferred by Pionerly fostering tuis Bureau are mealeuluble,” The President lias evidently taken no pains to inquire into the workings of the Bureau, and has been misled by its name and ostensible use into giving it a recome mendation which it does not deserve, It is nothing more than a contrivance for employing a large foree of clerks, and spend- ‘ing millions of dollars of the public mone; to no wrcfiul purpoto whatover, AU it do is to print monthly pamphlets of agricultu- ral bows, mostly extracted from the news papers, which encumber the mails as frapked matter, aud are used for lighting fires and as waste paper, without ever being read, A good agricultural journal like Tur WEEKLY Sun is wortha thousandfold more to the farmer than tons of such tresh ; and if Prest- dowt Gnaxy is the economist he is believed to be, he will mako baste to withdraw his ccommendation of further appropriations for its preduction, apdask that the Bureau be abolished altogether, ——— Mr. Samner ought to Retire. ie two powers with which our relations are now intricate are Spain, growing out of the Cuban straggle, and England, arising from the Alabama claims, The official per- sonage who can exert the most influence over these questions, next to the hired coun: sel of the Spanish Government in this city, is Mr. Sumner, the Chairman of the Con- mittee on Foreign Relations in the Senate: Canoors is tocorreet, A, isa discrepancy between Gis Paymaster and the accounting off. -cors of the Treasury in the settlement of his ae- counts; but there is no smapicion of Mr. Canoone's integrity.
