hm ens ey Nt ' quired from books while at school. a ps meena ee to be entirely. ~—wada, at hard labor, for the murder snore in October. tte aly Sensi _ NEVADA CET es: CAL, "whe New Réuigation. -Motwithstanding the comparative: efficiency of our public and private sohvol. system, there are sad «lefects connected with it, which time and experience will have to finda remedy for, “We have not the schools here that willturn out educated artisans, and well trained mechanics, as they" have.in Europe. On the contrary, a large majority of our educated men, are those who know nothing of industrial” labor, and are dependent wholly upou the knowledge they acThe country is flooded with this kind of men, and there ate those who are “coming to believe that there is too education. They believe ‘it useless. That there is some cause for this belief, it is only necessary to . advertise for a man to do light work. The following from the San Jose Mercury hits the nail on the head. ‘A fow days ago a small advertisemerit appeared inthe Chronicle's department of “help wanted,” for a shipping clerk for a wholesale house. _In two days’ time one hundred and’ “twenty-five letters wére™ ‘Feostved ii response to the said advertisement. In the entire number,” says: the Chronicle, “not a single instance of ‘bad chirograpby was displayed, and a large majority were addressed in bold, legible and handsome business hands.” There is something radically.wrong in the order of things that creates such a surplugage of supply as compared with the demand for clerical services. We think the evil Ties in a false educational system—a_ eysien “that ctiltivates the brain to the “negleét . wholly of the hand-and muscle; that grinds our young men all through the same mill, and turns them upon the world as little qualified as possible for any kind of manual industry. ‘We regad this as » misdirected education; and such we believe is fourfifths. of all the training of our schools, . Beyond the i-culcution of: a-knowledge of the rudimenta! bran-. ches of a plain Englisteducation, our public schools should ndt go, except in conjunction with:some system of thorough manual training. The world is filling up with educa‘ed incompetents—of men who are good for nothing on the farm or in the workshop, and who lack the capacity—owing largely perhaps to lack. of opportunity—to rise to eminence as tradesmen, accountants or professionals, A soft haud and a a genteel appearance are considered of more-woith than the sturdy independence which comes of productive industry and hard-handed toil. It is not so much the fault of our young ‘as it is of the system that thus unfits them-for their appropriate pluce in the world of use and work."’ » Tue brevities man of the Alta “@ays: ‘The people of Nevada adosty: call the United States Mint and Custom House of San Francisco their.county poor houses, because so many of their fellow citizens are provided for by those Government offices, What of it? Sargent has not forgotten the men who helped him when he started on his cureer as a public man, but he has given offices to them long after they could be of any spetial use to him. It is creditable to him.—Oakland News. a Tue United States Marshal in Toole county, Utah, in attempting. to seize the public records and the Court house was “resisted, Serious trouble. is anticipated there. The Marshal was serving an alternative writ of mandamus, Should it be made perpetual, it is believed he can serve itonly by posse and a military force. . oo. Omantits Huff, at Virginia city, has ‘been sentenced to twenty years in ‘the Penitentiary of the State of Neof O'Reilly, whom he killed in a saJoon’a few weeks ago. > ‘A Uran Judge has chargeda Grand Jury. very directly to indict for po. lygatay, to loox into the acts of legielators, and to enforce the law without fear.against polygamiote and all renders, ——. _“Tsrxs hundred troops are to be}. sent to.

The third term continues to.agi. tate those who anticipate events. ‘Tis comihg to. be the general iniEee pression inmost quarters, ths that Grant . Bo. go to North Bioo 4 will not.only want the position he now oceupies; bat ‘that’ he will get late upen the matter, but the indications now are very strong towards Grant’s nomination. Where his present strength comes in, is difficult to determine, unless it be among office-holders.' There are no influential Journuls advocating bis renomination, but a large number ‘that fortierly supported him, oppose the measure in the strongest terms. We. presume six months will develop the strengtli he has, and in the meantime other candidates will be brovght forward, and-we hope one who wil) have, saMicientstrength to secute a nomination, . returned home from their celebration in San Francisco; and have a big disgust on. They find the Pioneers of. the metropolis _ have “not that brotherly regard for them they have heretofore imagined. They were unprovided witha boat ride, with sufficient room.at the collation given a Woodward’s,and iio one met Y pees at the wharf on their arrival in San Francisco, and no conveyfrom the hall to the gardens. Altogetherthey consider their treatmeut rather shabby,’ They give the committees who are blamed for the neglect credit for trying to do what was right forthem, but think they. were incompetent to the task. Is ‘itnot probable that, the Pioneers of the interior expected a little too /much? . Did they vot imagine themselves entitled to more atténtion than the bond really called for. “Pux Capr’ s Revenor.—Aterrible story comes tous from Persia. In one of the districts a laboring man had been sentenced to be bastinadoed for some offense, receiving one hundred and twenty blows on the soles of his feet. Ashe sank down upon his knees after the sentence -lieved that his injuries were of a serious character, he called the judge to his side, intimating that he had a terrible secret to reveal. As he could only speak in a whisper, the judge pluced his ear to the lips of the fa‘nting mun, whex the latter seized it with his teeth, and in his agony bit it off, “In Persia, the loss of un ear, no matter under ‘what circumstances, is considered a lasting disgrace, and the judge so felt it. He at once gave orders to have the prisoper carefully cared for, assuring the physicians that if they did not save his life their own should pay the, penalty, and they succeeded. When the prisoner had fully recovered he was sentenced to have his teeth pulled out one by one, in presence of the mob, and this frightful sentence was carried out, two days being exhausted with the work. No pains were taken with the borrible job, and the jaws. were broken and crushed until the whole lower portion of the man's face was one mangledmass, and his sufferings were so great that many men fainted while witnessing the operation. Two days after the little life left in the man. was beaten out” tof the soles of his feet, and the judge ‘having fully isfied his thirst for vengeahce, Cole mitted suicide, A NEW process: for making wheat flour it about to be introduced in California The inventor is Bentz of Maryland: He will bring with him a smail mill, to be tested at the Star Mills, at Vallejo. He says that by his process every part of California wheat, except a very thin film of silex, is converted into merchantable—-flour, without discoloration. No bran, no ‘middlimgs, no refuse retnains. Our millers are incredulous, and he accepis their challenge to prove his claims. He finds our wheat is deficient in gluten, which causes it to be constipating. His flour corrects this; and. he claims it stipation. The Bentz mill costs less than half of the present mills, and if it proves all right, good-bye to shipping grain. Weshall find & great gain by converting it into ported iu barrels made of straw-paper, such as are my to be seen at our Fair.
