How many of our teachers are sub scribers to educational periodicals? Very few, wo fear, and yet how nec essary they arc for the Improvement of Iiio teacher in his profession. Un less the physician reads and studies periodicals connected with his calling in order to keep abreast with the many improvements and the rapid strides of the science of medicine, he will prove himself au unworthy disci ple of Esculapius. The minister who' expects to fulfill a grand mission must be able to solve the intricate mysteries of revealed religion and keep alive to the upward and on ward march of the church, or he will fall far short of his mark. So with every profession of life. And the teacher, if true to himself and to the interests of those whom ho instructs, must keep up with tho progress of his profession, and to do this ho must supply himself with books and peri* odioals and read them. Tho great actor, Salvini, once said to his pupils : "If you would wield a mighty power, tho thiuidorboU of oratory, study, study, study; all the gcuius in the world will not help you along with any art, unless you aro a hard stu dent." We need not make the appli cation, for every sensible teacher will readily sec the point. A New Sea. It is known from careful measure ments of M. Kondalre, that a large part of the desert of Sahara is a large basin, having a surface level lower than the Mediterranean Sea. In that part of the desert sunlit -of Algeria and Tunis, this depression extends about 3,-l?O square miics, which is equal to the a?ea of the States of Del aware and Rhode Island. Into this basin it is proposed to admit the wa ters of the Meditecancan by means of a canal from the Gulf of (Jabe/., this young sea having a depth of one hun dred feet in some places, averaging forty leet, with an aica of half of Lake Ontario. Physical geographers anticipate important climatic changes in the vicinity from evaporation ami precipitation, and \v all probability will allect the climate and productions of all southern Europe. Equal Education. More than one thousand young wo men have graduated during the past month, from Vassar, Wcllcsley, and other institutions, a fact which shows that the higher education of woman is receiving a small share, at least, of that attention which its importance demands. Let's have educated daugh ters along with educated sons. Some may doubt the propriety of co-educa tion of the sexes, but equal education is an Accomplished facl,ai d this is one of the hopeful signs of the limes. A minister was ridding through a section of the State of South Carolina where custom forbade, innkeepers to take pay from the clergy who stayed with them. The minister in question took supper without prayers 01 grace, and was about to take his departure when mine host presented his bill. "Ah, sir," sa d he, *'l am clergy man !" "That may he," responded Boniface, "but you came hero, smok ed like a sinner, ami ale and drank like a sinner ; and now, sir, you can pay like a sinner. General Sherman, who burnt At lanta and Columbia, and who is noth ing but an educated vandal, is oppos ed to introducing collar ornament to indicate rank because the Confede rates wore them. Eh, hem 1 This moves that unappreciated paper, the Richmond State, to 6ay: "That's right, General; for we should hate to see you wear the badges of honor that distinguished such true soldiers Of Lee and Jackson from men of your commoner mould." It is not well for teachers to love their pupils unequally, or, if they do, they should not show it, for one will be made proud, the other envious, and both foolish. Impartiality is the crowning virtue iti a school-room. Wk have yet received, no answers to the questions asked a few weeks since.

Peace and Good will?as opposed to War or aught else that is contrary to Love. As an Independent Organ of Christian ity and Methodism, the Neighbor seeks to establish Peace in its Divinely ap pointed supremacy in the Household, the School, the Church, the State and the World. The number of the present generation, who believe with the early disciples of Christ, that Christianity and War are contrary, one to the other, is hopefully on the increase.
