Prussia is pursuing a si» gularly cruel and despotic policy toward che Poles wh are so unhappy as to have settled in that kingdom. Up to the middle of last month nearly 35,000 of these inoffending people have been driven from the country under circumstances of great hardship. No crime has been charged against them. They are not socialists, they are not disloyal, they are not paupers. They have the misfortune to be Prles; that is their only fault, but it is a grievous one. Russia bas sent her worst criminals, with many of her worthy citizens, to Siberian dungeons; but in Poland she punishes a whole nation with systematic and remorseless oppression and depriva tion. And while ia their agony and de- spair, they are crying to the heartless tyrant at St. Petersburg for liberty to live, Prusssia acts as his ally in turning adrift thousands who have found homes and peace and prosperity within her bor- ders. The compact between the Czar and Emperor is not only an unholy campact,it is a compact which may sooner or later bring sorrow and disaster to one or both. Russia’s friendship is notoriously uucer- tain. She is an enemy or a friend, as it suits her interest to be, avd she cao quickly change from one to the other. Prussia’s expulsion of the Poles will be a precedent for her when she wishes to inflict injury on her neighbor. She can expel all Germans from her domain, and cause a great amount of suffering. The royal decree is being executed with such vigor that even Poles who have earned the rights of citizenship by mili- tary service are driven ont as aliens, Poles who have been naturalized in other conntries and are citizens of France and Kngland, receive no more consideration thao the most recent immigrant from | Poland. Not a few of the poor exiles , know no other language than German. Some districts have been decimated by ‘the proscription, and business has Suffered in mavy cases by loss of clerks and workmen. Among the expelled are .a number of the Austrian Reichsrath, and a French subject, Count Zamoyski. ‘Sach an outrage against humanity is unworthy of a Turk.

German Intolerance. *Ithorongh common school education is

ample basis for good citizenship.

“ Why, my dear sir, we bave men in Mris town (Saco) who think a boy with al! the common school education in the world a fool, without a smattering of Greek, Latin, French, German, and par ticularly botany ; and these are the meu who would demoralize our country by giving our children a fancy, fashionable education, which unfits at least nine- tenths of our young mev aod maidens to getan honest liviog. It is as plaiv as ihe noonday in this town and Bideford ihat the free high shool is a curse to the rising generations. It fils them only for consumers. Our grammar schoo!s are excellent, and if it were not for the high school temptation we should have some first-rate farmers and mechanics avd fishermen.

“The result of this kiad of edaeatiou in these two towns is that the Yaukee is becoming almost helpless in the way of getting au honest livelihood, while the French and Irish are living ou what we waste on ornamentation, and layiog up halt theit wages, and becomming posseas- ors of a large amount of our real estete, which formerly belonged to native

citizens. A distinguished citizen re- marked: ‘ Yavkees must inevitably become fashiovable dudes, educated

sharpers, and a disgrace to their hard working fathers aod mothers.’ But our most intelligent men and deepest. think ers are wekivg up to the great evil "hata free, fashionable education is a vurse, and that labor is an honor and not @ dis- grace to a Christian people.”

The Length of Sermons.

A brother editor on the other side has been trying to get the views of the differ- ent clerymen about the lengtl: of sermons and that he has published the result of his labors.

We are afraid that this result is not so satisfactory and final as could be derired, for the views expressed are considerably conflicting. We shall give a few. . One Episcopalian, who was asked among others, replied :

“Short sermons, by al! means. Less preaching’ more praying, more worship, Mine house shail be called a nouse Of prayer, never a house of preaching.”

The Presbyterian came down to par- ticularize :

“That the average sermon of the ave

minister had better be thirty miuutes long than forty. Sermons should not be made tothe yard- stick, for al! themes cannot be handled with the

and sold to us at a big advantage rather than return them. We are manufacturing pletion of 50 years from her accession. | *™e brevity.”

The Methodist very sensibly believed in short and long sermous, wisely con- cladiug that some long sermons were

¥ and ber subjects ought to be grateful to| pleasantly short, white some which, “ by

the clock,” were marvellousiy short, were, by the feelings of the hearer, all but interminable and tedious.

The Baptist ectered upon the subject at length, and summed up his experience as follows :

“As a rule, the less a man has to say, the longer he takes to do it. 1 am fully persuaded that, save in very exceptional instances, what- ever else a sermon is about, it oughi to be about haif an hour. I know men otherwise pens who are failures in the ministry, because they hit the

nail on the head the firs! time and then keep hammering till they split the board,”

The one conclusion from al! this is that

ALL OUR CLOTHING IS MADE ON THE year has as much right to be chosen as}sermons, like a good many other things,

should rather be weighed than measured, but that upon the whole it is better for all concerned that they should be short. Johu Wesley used to say, “ Let no

Half Education.

A Maine correspondent tells a good deal of truth in relation to the fact of too much teaching of youth; that is, too much half-education. The writer’s statements remind us of what Daniel Webster once said, namely, that he learned move the first year after he left college than he didthe whole time he

speskiog about. Pascal apologized for the great length of one of his immortal letters by alleging that he had not time to meke it shorter. Robert Hall, the great Baptist preach- er, said more than once: “A man of genuis with ap effort, might make one sermon in a week. A man of talent, if he were Giligent, might perhaps manage to make two, But nobody but a bora fool would ever think of attempting to make three.” The Edioburgh Scotsman used to refer to certain persons who devoted “part of their Sunday leisure to the labor of hear- ing sermous.” The “labor” would be less, and the profit greater if, as @ geveral thing, the sermon-weaver made his web somewhat shorter and drove it more firmly together.
