be essential to success. The unanimity with which General Grant was
renominated at Philadelphia was not
an absolute reflection of the Republican sentiment of the country, if we
include in our estimate of Kepublieans all of those who veted for him
in 1868. No amount of gun firing
and powder buruing, no multiplication of ratificatien meetings will
shake this fact Among thoxe who
supported him in 1368 there has been
@ serious opposition to President
Grant, and though many who were
« opposed to his renomination are dissatisfied with the nomination of
Greeley, yet it is not apparent that
these iu any considerabie numbers
have become reconciled to the acceptance of Grant. :
After reading the above we should
hay that the Stars and Stripes was affected with the big-head, probably
because Grant did not appoint its editor to office, When that paper ase
Grauit was tit an absolute reflection
of the Republican’ sentiment of the
ountry,”’ it either considers ity readers a pack of asses, or its prejudices
the signs ef thetimes. If that is the
kind of endorsement Grant and Wil‘gon are to receive at the hands of the
Stripes the sooner their names are
pulled down from its head the more
consistent the editor will appear in
tho estimation of the people. If you

No teacher should presume to hear a

fér gracious sake don’t act two-faced
about the matter.
The National Finances,
The monthly bulletin from the
Treasury Department at Washington,
showing the reduction of the national deb. tor each monti since Grant's
inauguration, to June ‘Ist, has been
veceived. It shows that the reduction for May was $4,226,064 78,
which, added to the previous payments, inakes a total reduction in
the debt in the three years and three
months of Grant’s term (from March
_ 1969, to*Junie, 1872), $33) 945,881 07,
or-an average of $8,511,432 85 per
month, and leaves the total debt, less
cash in the treasury, on June Ist,
$2, 193,517,378 94, against a total ai
the date of Grant’s inauguration of
$2,525,463,260 01, . Omitting fractions, we find the decrease has been
‘otithe rate of $279,642 69 per day,
$11,651 77 per hour, $19419 per
minute and $3 23 per second. The
interest on the debt has-been de«areased in the time named, -$22,002,$19 90 per annum, or at the rate of
$1,833,54325 per month—that is,
~ our interest charge is that much less
then it was previous to March; 1860.
‘And all this time the taxes have
been constantly reduced, until in
duly the only internal taxes that will
have to ‘be paid will be those on
tobacco and liquors. These facts
most emphatically give the lie to the
charges of wastefulness and sorrup.
tion urged: against the Administration, ‘‘Any one who thinks these
facts won't tell in a Presidential
campaign, hasa poor appreciation of
thé good sense of the people,” said
Horace Greeley about a year ago in
speaking of Grant and’ his management of our. National affairs, and we
think the remark will apply very appropriately to the management of
the finances. f
In view of the fact that August Belmont has been violently winking at
Grant, the Baltimere Convention
should not fail to include in its pre‘ Siminary) proceedings. the egood old
hymn: .

fine every word in the lesson promptly and correctly. Should he faiito
do this when ealled upon, the cla:s
would lose confidence in his ability,
while the teacher ought to feel embarrassed. Is there then no need of
preparing for the recitation?

school, the most important one of

ince, not only to find out how much
the pupil knows, but by suggestions
and by well directed questions to
awaken an interest in the pupil, that
shall cause him to investigate the
subject more fully and thoroughly
for himself. Inno way can we beter form an estimate of @ teacher
‘han by witnessing the manner in
which he conducts a recitation. A
, vorly conducted recitation is the
characteristic of a poor teacher. He
who prepares himself forthe recitaticn by a careful review becomes interested in the subject, and he imparts that interest to the class.—
While the teacher urges his pupils to
prepare their lessons, he should also
snguire if he has no duty perform in
this respect.
Let those teachers who have never
tried this harmless experiment put
it into practice for a short time, and
they will -note a marked improvemeutin their classes, and will, perbaps, have added something to their
own store of knowledge, P.
