College Education.

(The Week: )

Js a university, or let us say a college education, » thing to be desired for its own sake, or only asa means to an end! Is it a thing to be coveted by all, irrespective of native abilities, or is it fit ony for the select and clever few? Is ita training ideally desirable for men and women as such, withuut regard to prospective occupa- tions, or is the College performing its proper and highest function when it is preparing a ‘limited number for learned professions and pursuits? Most of those who have given any thought to such ques- tions are familiar with the ideas of Sin William Hamilton and other educationists and philosophers whose views agree with his. Are such views not only Utopian but erroneous? Is it a mischievous, as well as an impracticable dream, that leads euthusiasts to hope for a good time coming when higher education, the highest educi- tion -available, shall be regarded as the

birthright of the race; or to put it in a somewhat less _ startling shape, when a _ Oollege education

shall be deemed of value chiefly for its own sake, 2s a training of the mental and moral powers necessary alike to the performance of the highest duties and the enjyment of the highest pleasures of life, a development ot the true manhood and womanhouod, and so a boon to be brought as far as possible within the reach of all? May the gradual shortening of the hours of tuil, and the up- ward extension of those educational faci i- ties which are now within the reach of all, be regarded as tending towaids a state o! society in which the best culture may be had by everyone, whatever his occupation, whose mental faculties are suflicient!y aroused tv make it an object of desire ? These questions are not so impracticab.e or visionary as they may seem, since, so far as we are able to see, the whole duty and relation of the public to the universities and colleges turn upon the answer. They are old questions, but still unsettled They have just now been suggested afresh by the following passage in the current number of the Bystander :

_ “A university education is a very good thing for such as can really turo it to account. Of these there are two classes; men who in- tend to devote their lives to svience or learn- ing, and men who, though they do not in- tend to devote their lives to szieuce or learn ing, are capable of making good use of the fruits of high intellectual training in other walks of life. Both of these Classes are lim- ited, and the second, perhaps, is fully as iimited as the first. ‘To seud an ordinary boy to cuilege is not only to incur great expense on his account, but to expose his character, and especially his habits of jadugtry, to no sm.il peril.”

Tf this ba the true view of the matter, it should dampen the mischievous ardor of educational enthusiasts. A most serious responsibility is devolved upon those who are obliged tu decide whether they or their children and wards belong to either of the two exceptional classes indicated, since to make a mistake, and thus expose a charac- jer to peril, isa very serious matter. The obvious inference is, since the most san- guine can hardly venture to hope that the great majority uf our ordinary college stu- dents belong to one or the other of the two limited c.asses, that it becomes ordmarily a duty to discourage, rather than encourage, scholarly ambition. We cannot pursue the subject, but we cannot dismiss it without suggesting the query, whether, if the case be as described, it does not argue a serious fault in the Character of the University education itself, and whether it is not. both possible and natural to conceive of a true higher education which should stimulate and strengthen every good mental and moral quality, the habits of industry in- cluded, and so fit the man or the woman for tha better discharge uf duty in every sphere of life, however humble.

The Best Newspapers.

Geo. P. Rowett & Co., proprietors -f the American Newspaper Advertising Bureau, No 10 Spruce Street, New York, have issued a pamphlet containing a choice selection of newspapers for an advertiser to use, who pre- fers to confine his advertising investments to such as are likely to pay him best.

This catalogue names all the greatest and all the best new: papers. The selection made in- cludes every religions, agricultural, or other class weekly, having a regular issue of so many as ten thousand copies; all the great monthlies, the leading dailies in all the largest cities, and aims to name the besi paper in every county seat having a population of so much as three thousand, avd every other town, village or city having so much as five thousand population, provided a paper is printed which issues as many as a thousand copies a week.

‘The total output for a single edition of the publications named in this Catalogue of Pre- ferred Newspapers is between fifteen and cighteen milion copies, and is, therefore, more than enough to place a paper regularly with every family in every State and Territory.

‘Che number of American newspapers is now so large that the great advertising agencies do not find it wise to attempt to specially repre- sent them all, and at the list meetiug of the Association of Newspaper Advertising Agents it was resolved that each member should pre- pare a list which, while enumerating the best papers, should name only about one in ten of all which are published.

It has been ful y dzmonstrated that fully one-half of all American newspapers emanate from less thin seven hundred offices, and that a list of more than ten thousand newspapers can be made up, among which no single one prints regularly so many as athousind copies. Vo have dealings with this myriad of small pxpers cannot be thought of by the majority of advertisers, and advertising agencies find transactions with them to be the reverse of profitable. :

Tue carefully selected list which is now issued by Geo. P. Rowell & Co. is the first which has been put forth in accordance with the resolution of the Association of General Newspaper Adveitising Ageut-,

itis issued by tie oid.si, best equipped, and most favorably known of all the agencies, and is likely to invite careful examination. and eviticism from both advertisers aud puab- lishers. Geo P. Rowell & Co. have a more throughly perfected system and better facili- ies for conducting the necessiry negotiations with newspapers and watching the fulfiliment of advertising contracts than has ever been attempted by any other house in this line in this or any other country. At their adver-

ising bureau, which wasestablished in 1865, have originated mest of the meteods of con- ductiug such a business, which have proved to be permanently successful. They have issued the American Newspaper Directory for twenty-two years > They now advise their advertising patrons that it wil always be well to confine advertisement orders to papers selected from the Catauligue of Preferred Papers here referred to, unless the advertiser has some conclusive reasons of his own for using others.

The population of every plice where a newspaper ig published is stated in the Cata- logue ; county seats are designiied, and the circulation rating accorde | tu every piper by the last issue of the American Newspaper Directory is given. Out of the seventeen thousand papers named in the Directory, only about two thousand are selected ; of these it is, perhaps not necessa'y to add that Taz Ex- AMINER is given the prominence to which iis merits entitle it.

Watering Horses.

It is claimed that when horses are fed grain before watering,the drink subsequent- ty taken will wash the grain out of the stomach into the iutestines. Culor 1s given to this view by the fact that a horse’s stomach is exceedingly small c»mpared to his size, and especialiy so whcn it is recalled that the horse consumes coarse food as well as dves the ox. Ex-Secretary Russell, of the Massachusetts State Board of Agrical- ture. informs us that while in Paris he saw old horses slaughtered after eating a mess of oats and receiving directly afterwards around drink of water. Mr. Russell states tht fresh oars were found in plenitude in the intestines where they had been carried by the moving water. A horse will often drink all that his stomach will hold if empty—some three and onz-half to four gallons. As the horse’s stomach is never empty, either of water or of hay, it is easy to‘believe that water will pass through the stomach at once. This cannvt occur as a stream or central curreat, as it must be diffused in the-mass of the stomach, forcing out the liquid already in it, as well as the ‘finer matters of the stomach. It might not follow that fresh fuod, if coarse like oats, would be moved, but the eyes of Mr. Russell must be accepted as competent witnesses,

The only question that could arise wo 1d be upon the conditions. He does not give us facts eaough t» enable us to state. that they were normal. It can readily be seen that under special conditions such a result might oecur when it would nct under nor- ‘mal conditions—for instance, the ratio of grain tu hay that had b en fed, the con- dition of the stumach as t> its relative empt- ine:s, and the t me of the pricr watering. Uf the conditions were be rial then the cats that were seen to have been moved intothe ‘jutestines were reduced, in all probability, ‘in their nunitive value, but not ful y molli- ified, as digestion goes on in part after leav- ‘ing the stomach and may possibly be com- plete, although not so likely to be so jdigested. If the horses in question were

underfed and allowed to or caused to go a long time from previous drinkiug, then the fact that oats were found ia the large in- ‘testine may msan nothing at all fur horses under normal conditiuns. aati cee cae te caret ‘For Rickets, Ma-asmus, and all Wasting disorders of Children | Scott’s Emn'sioa of Pure Cod Liver Oi," with Hyphosphites, is unequaled. ‘The rap- idity with which children gain flesh and strength upon it is very wonderful, “1 have used Scott’s Emulsion in cases of Rickets and | Marasmus of long standing.” In every case the improvement was m wked.—J.
