At a, recent meeting in Boston, �f the School Committees eind Superintend. - ants of Norfolk county, one speaker said one result of the teaching in our `com- mon schools was the inability to think. .Our schools are all wrong. Ask a 'ques- tion of & young lady in the high school, and if she has no quotation from a book on the end of her tongue, she replies that she does not know. Another mem- ber said that it is how to teach that our primary teaohers want to understand, rather than what to teaoh. That is the main idea. He would have pupils taught by topics rather than from ipage -ta page. The quality of a teacher is regulated by the freedom which ia al- lowed to him or her. Colonel P of Quincy, attacked the A B C me whieh is opposed to the science of edu- cation. Our method of teachin by text -books, also from page to p e, is wee, A science is talight by steps. The first two years of primary educa- tion are the most important; and. if that is wrong, there is no teacher hi the universe -who can eradicate the vitiation the ehild has repeived. F Presence of Mind. M. Cochrane, the celebrated stock- breeder of Compton, Quebec has- 'sold another of his Duchess Shorthorn. heif- ers, 10 months old, for $12,000, to Col. Cannon, of Burlington. A good story is told iflr connection with Mr Cochrane's last shipment of stock to England. The valuable cargo was in charge of Beatty, the well-knownstoeltrrom, and when the vessel was nearing the coast of England a valuable steer, worth $2,000, took sick. Beatty, fearing that the animal's sickness might cause . the whole lot to be qua,rantined asked the captain ,to be allowed. to throw the beast overboard. The captain refused positively to take the responsibility of throwing over such a valuable animal. Beatty- watched his opportunity, and when the captain was • down at dinner he struck the sick steer with ashatnaner And killed. it, and. With The assistance of his menthrew the car- -case over before the captain came back. Beatty's presence of mind saved Mr. Cochrane about $40,000 on his venture. Juliet in Joliet. The Chicago Times relates a roirtiintic story -of a young lady new staying in. Joliet, the town where the Illinois pet& ten.tialy is located. One evening she was out walking with her lover. They stepped into an oyeterhouse for refresh- • ments, and. while seated at the table a drunken. rough came staggering in and. insulted the lady. Her lover warned him not to do so again' under penalty of death. The rough was just enough to repeat his insult, andthe lover pulled. his revoleer and shot him dead. For this the lover was arrested, tried and sentenced to !two years in the Joliet penitentiary. The young lady is ' -there awaitine the time when he will regain his liberty, which will be shortly. She has elegant clothing, jewelleryrand plenty of money awaiting his release, and then they both expect to be happy. Hints on Feeding Roots: Refuse potatoes, which in many Scotch counties and in Yorkshire are freely given to horses, both raw and cooked, ocetteiongastric, derangeraent and eyen death unless at first used.e sparingly. Exactly the same caution is necessary in the use of the mangold. It is full of moistures, contains upward of ninety per centruia of water and More saline matter than many other artioles of food, while it readily undergoes 1 fer- mentation, and thus is liable to im air the digestion of horses unused t But when accustomed to the mangold they take it very well; on some farms six or eight pounds, are *given to every horse; but from its watery and saline charaoter, it is not so well adapted. for hard working horses as swedes or car- rots. Where roots are scarce and horses are living on dry food, they ought to have twice a, week a, liberal allowEince of bran. Ewes with young lambs read- ily ea,t mangolcl, and do tolerably well if they are receiving also full supplies of nutritive dry food. Given to sue 'ng ewes on grass it is, however, very li ble to purge the lambs. Auction Sales.
