VIOLETS.

Meet tribute, Blest mother, I bring, Thine altar of May to adorn; Since Flowers have voices to sing, I'll give them atnight and at morn.

Bnt flowers and songs cannot last, Their beauty dies out with the day; White lilie·s, red roses fade thst, Too fhst to weave chaplet of May. II

These liLtle mountain gems I bought, Are symbols, Virgin mild, of thee; Their deep blue eyes concealing thought, Til is pray'r repeat, "I-tem ember me."

The sun and rain that saw them bloom, Foretold their native modest worth: As thine, of old, in Naznreth's Room, Archangel voic'd to hosts of earth.

III Oft gi fts are blest from scanty store, The widow's was who gave her mite; 1So man gives love, God asks no more, For love wins grace in Heaven's sight.

Take then, these blue violets I bring, Thine altar of May to adorn; With humble voice tlley sweetly sing, Magnificat from night till morn.

ACCURATE STATEMENT.

If speech were less common and utterance defined by certain periods of time, possibly the rank and file of human kind, might employ both more judiciously. · Speech confined to certain classes and occasions

No.7

would attract discriminating audiences, in which case great and wholesome truths might perhaps underlie the generality of human statements. But speech; like water, in distribution, is general and promiscuous.

Abundance increases with the population. Speech too, like water it easily disturbed. Foul conveyance will vitiate the one and the other. More than this. What men find it impossible to do with water, viz. make it run above its source-they easily_do with speech-they run it counter to its natural fount, truth, accuracy. And this, a hundred ways a hundred times l\ day, from no apparent motive, with little scruple, sometimes from sheer force of habit and generally speaking, with more or less fatal results.

Inaccuracy in speech or statement, arises from many causes. Be it remarked, we are not emphasizing that inaccuracy ~hich is, so to speak, downright lying, or, that wholesale perversion of truth which springs fi:om distorted knowledge and malice aforethought.

The inaccuracy here referred, to has exaggeration for ~tatting point and base of supply, wrong impression of of truth either in itself or, its influence on others; misconceived notions of one's own importance and the relative insignificance or overpowering greatness 0f one's fellow men. This kind of inaccuracy is common in our country and it is the logical result of that system which permits all kind of people to read all kinds of literature, and talk on all sorts of topics. It is the logical result of a system which borrows deep inspiration from hearsay and superficial teache1·s.

Naturally it induces men of little minds, with perverted or half digested knowleclg~, to become vehicles for spreading whnt, by a wild name, in our day, is called inaccurate statement, but, what in ou r fm·efathers' time, would have been called, falsehood. Inaccurate statements invade all professions without exception. From the pious, half-read, mountebank who, from his pulpit imposes both himself and his preaching on the simple faith of a too confiding congregation to the designing shyster who takes your sltekels tor justice-sake; from the oily tongued pill pound~r who doctors your best ti·iend as he would his mother in law, to.. · impecunious calculating, scribblet· who reviles:. . · name and character .for pelf in his immoral all

KankakP.e's knights knock ed. Oh S\mdav afternoon "th e 14th. inst. the .Kankakee base ball club -crossed bats with a picked nine of the college, and were defeated by a sc<)re of 21 to s. The first part of the game was very exiting not a man crossing the hoine plat.e till the· 5th. inning.

From thim the game was a w1\lk away for,the boys the visitors out-field was somewhat weak. and they were poor at the bar, Alpine played "short" very well picking-several "hot grounders" throwing men out at first.

Mit. EDITOR: If the American student who sriends si:xi or seven y ears, in acquiring a superficial know.ledge of L atin and Greek would turn his thoughts t~ English Litera ture, study Milton, Shakesp eare, Pope, Dryden and our best prose writers he would find himself far more benefited, and his ltnowledge of English would be · far more complete. Do away with Latin and Greek. Let us have the language which we can use in every day life, let the arts and scien ces be more of a specialty, and our Educational system, will be in 30 . years the most profitable heretofore known in the a11nls of American history.

Positive.

Mu. EDITOR: Whether Latin and Greek . should be

retained or not in colleges and universities is a qu estion highly debatable, for and against which many good reasons may be advanced .

At the present day, any one who has· not a knowledDRAWING. ge of the classics is not considered educated. He is Mi8ses J. Lanoue, M. Kingdon, D. N. Legris, A. Manni, called trained if he has studierl the sciences, but if he M. L. P aiement, N . Engle, S. Roach, L. Graveline, has not read Livy·, Tacitu s, Ci cero, Virgil , X enopl1Qn V. Grav eline. and Homer his knowledge is said to be limited. To Among the visitors were the Rev. Fathers Poulin,, uphold this it is claimed that the classics are sources Langlais, Galligan, Toomey, McGrath. of much knowledge from which great writers h:1 ve Messrs J. Gelino, Lavery, members of the Board of continually been drawing: for in no place have crt and Education Kankakee, and Mr. McLean of Kankakee · literature flourished more than in Rome an'l Greece ; Times, Mr. and Mrs. Reaume Ind. Mrs. Devine and and even to-day is it not to these same places that Mrs. Smith, of Chicago. those who wish to attain any perfection in the arts and Miss A . Mallon '83 spent a few days at the Academy sciences go to complete their studies? previous to her departure for Wisconsin.

By translating. the elassics we have abundant means Of training our minds; it is through them that we become acquainted with the hi storical events of ancient tim es; ON THE QUESTION of the classics we have been it is through them that we can form an opinion of the favored with a few letters from some of our senior masterpieces of art and literature which Greece ami students. Opinions are surely allowable in students and Rome have presented to the world; it is through them we publi sh them, persuaded they will stand or fhll on also an? only through tlilem that we are able to attain their merits. In our next issue another batch will an almost perfect mastery of the English language, for furnish variety on the same subject. more than a third of its voca bulary i~ of Greek and Latin origin. Such then are the advantages deriv ed from the study of the classics.

But notwithstanding this, there are many who are MR. EDITOR: A knowledge of the classics contributes strongly opposed to their retention in colleges. Could to impart keenness of perception and sound judgment we not, say they , employ our time on matters of more and also helps largely in almost everything concerning importance?

After we have spent seven or eight years solid education. Abolish the study and we must seek in in the study of the chssi cs, of what benefit are they to translations for the first knowledge concerning the us?

They help to train the mind "it is true" but would monuments of antiquity. Theological. philosophical and we not derive as great a mental training from the study historical truths of great importance come by way of of the v arious sciences such as mathematics and astronGreece and Rvme. Would it be well to trust to other omy as from that of the classics? Perhaps. Again some than the original text for such knowledge. For my maintain that the Latin and Greek languages give a part I say, keep Latin and Greek but make them thor~ good idea of the ancients and that they are sources Of ough.

great knowledge. This is so, and I would also admit that the literary world would suffer a great lo by their' .abolition had not all the most important works of Greek and Latin authors already been translated into onr _own modern language . It is of no use to spenrl time in translating the cia sics for we would derive more advantage from their beaut.y in the languages into which they have been trano;ln.ted and which we ·already nnde1 tand. But by thi , I do not mean that the ·classics ~h ould be entirely abolished. We should knovv them enough to an wer the purpose~ of our situation and profes ion. But we hould not make tllem our principal stndies, for they are dead languages and consequently of not much practical use to us. Let us rather apply ourselves to master those languages which are spoken at the present. day, such as the English, the German, the French and others,-language which we can learn in a much shorter time than the cla sics and from which we derive more, or at least, as many advantages. L et us devote ourselves to the study of the v.~riou branches of the ciences. the arts, and literature, n.nd surely at the end we will be as well off, or rather better off, than if we had waste·d years in the translation of Greek .and La.tin authors.

LITERARY AND OTHER NOTES. "ClliNESE GORDO:l<' ."

Geneml Gordon, mainly tbrongh tile bnnglil'g policy of the British goverment, is having his name published in a far mo:te effective manner than it can Le by a.ny nntbor or by any publisher. It i:; natural, however, that the public should be anxious to get hold of the leaclino- facts of his life. There a.re two a,uthoritivc works"'on General Gordon's care<'r-Dr. Andrew \Vilson's "Eve r Victorious Army" and Mr. Berbeck Hill's ''Colonel norr1ou in Central Africa." In a.11dition there is a volume

by Egmont H ake, an d the volume before us is hy Archibald F orbes. The two latter volumes arc in the main digests of the two former. This li ttle volume b.v F orbe, who is evidently a warm a,dmirer of Gord on, trea ts of Gordon's career in a very full an d satisfactory nanner, and the facts, while agreeably prr_sentcd, are compressed into a small spa.ce.(t;. W. Green"s ~on.)

written while :Mr. Konis was uperintendent of the Yellow tone ~atioual Park, a poRt which tJ1e author held for five years. It is a characteristic volume, and it will no doubt find admirers. (J. B. Lippincott.)

'EMERSO

<"

"Ralph Walde Emerson" was the subject of a paper r ead beiore the New York Genealogical and Biopraphicnl Society, December 14, 18 3, by William Hague, D· D. Dr. Hague, it seems, was ru1 e..'lrly and intimate friend of the sage of Concord. The lecture is publi bed at the reqneet of the ociety. It sheds some light on Emer on' mental history . In what he calls ".Afterthoughts" Dr. Hague takes l\Iatthew .Arnold• to task for some of his utterances regarding Emerson. vVe doubt not, however, that the English critic will be quite able to vindicate himself and his judgments.

"BOATING TRIPS

&c."

It has been the habit of l\Ir. H enry Parker Fellows for orne years to make boating excursions- inland voyages as he calls them-on New England rivers.

The c have been in a high sen e plea urable excmsions; ~mel a 1\fr. Fellows is at once ,a keen observer and a cleYer writer they have been made the ubject on more than one occasion of newspaper articles. These articles, be hns now collected, and ha'.Ung added to them some fresh matter he has made quite an elegant little volume.

The book is made more useful and instructive by maps and illustrations. The rivers described are mainly the Sudbury, Concord and l\ferrimac, the Hou satonic and the Nashua. . Mr. Fellows would have added to the valne of his book if lle had scattered over his -pages a li ttle more of the golddust of hi torical reminiscence.

These New England rivers ought not to be unsuggestive. (Cnppies, Upham & Co.) N. Y. Herald.
