The examination papers are prepared ?,< by the academic board at Auiiapolis, n< ao there will be no examiuatiou on en- mt trance to the academy except a pbysi- P? cal one. r? In order to make sure that there | ball be no vacancy, each Senator Ik < authorised to designate six young men, one ae principal and the others as first, second, third, fourth and fifth alternataa. If the nrincioal falls the otberv take his place by succession, in their order. In order to afford an opportunity for the best talent Id our State to via the prize, I have decided to have a competitive examination held in the State House at Columbia on Monday. July 28, beginning at 0 o'clock a. m., to select a principal and Ave alternates. Tboee selected will appear before the examiners of the civil service commissioners on the 11th of August, after having been nominated by me to the navy department No one will be permitted to enter the examination who Is not physically sound, as it would only causa a waste of time. No student 1>m baan exnelled from college and none bat bona fide white resident* of the 8tate need apply. All applicant* for examination will report promptly to the board of examinees to be appointed hereafter and annoanesd through the papers at the boor and plaoe designated. The board will prepare the examination paper* and hand them oat that day. The aoope of the examination is s> 9* follows: Reading, writing, spelling, arithmetic, geography, English grammar. U. 8. history, world's history, algebra through quadratic equation*, and plane geometry (Ave books ol CbauTsnet's Geometry, or an equivalent.) The age limits are from 15 to 20 * For the information of candidate* the following la quoted from the regulations : "A sound body and constitution, citable preparation, good natural cspadty, an aptitude for study, industriouehablU, perseverance, an* obedient aad orderly disposition, and a correct moral deportment, are such essentia) qualification* that candidates knowing their deficiencies In any of these respects should not, ss many do, subject tn?ilfM and their friends to the chances of faturs mortification and disappointment by accepting appoint* men ts at the naval academy and entering on a career which they cannot soeesMftilly pursue." ' This examination will be at my personal szpsnse, and the six highest candidates will then be examined before the examiners of the civil service commtalonfiis The examination will be abeoiuteiy in the hands of the examiners I select, but previous good conduct at school, ^hmnetmr and rood habits will no _ i doubt have weight with them in mak- K iof their selection, as well as common , senee and manliness. Mental ability la not the oniy teat to be applied. The names of the six highest com- , aetitors will be sent by me to the navy u department Immediately after (be ex- V) ami nation, not later than the flmt of , August, and that department will issue permits to appear before the examloan of the civil service commission on ,l the Uth of August, at one of the three dUca herein before specified. All the papsrs will be forwarded to Annapoli* by the eivil service com mi Mi on exam- , leers and the highest ?ucce*sful compet) tor will receive the appointment io cater the naval academy at the beginning of the next session. In tbe -() event the midshipman thus appointed falla ah nhMlMl Avamlnilinn or it the . Egjte first annual examination, I will give the place to tbe next highest oompet- T Itoron the Hat. B. R.

Professor Klmer (iates, of Washing* ?i I K<it ioiif nun proven Hi'ifuiiiiumj wholly undeveloped cell* in the brain i-an l?e brought to perfection by continued effort. Animals with no idea of color can Ik? trained to disliuguiah different colon., and human brains can with the fame persistent effort be utude to undergo a complete transformation from viciousnes* and laziness to morality and industry. Jf the hurrying, thoughtless world would only pause long enough to consider what such a discovery means to civilization we might in another generation or two do away with our awful priHonaj which are leas than schools for crime, and substitute a great scientific inat.it 111ion under itovprnmeut control, where character* could be created for thot<e born without them. I have a letter from a prisoner who tells me be was for six years deprived of communication with any one t>ave associate criminals and keepers, and was allowed uo reading matter during that time. Whatever thin man's natural disposition, pueh a blind and stupid method of punihhment could only result in making him mill more criminal?siuce all crime is the result of an undeveloped nature?undeve'oped in its best brain cells.

VUID WUUIU ua*v vw*MV.m?d. We never remaiu stationary. *Ve are always improvingjor retrograding? going up or down in tbe moral and the intellectual scale. What possible chance have moot of our criminals in prison to become better men ? Some future day our methods of treatiug these unfortunates will be regarded with as much horror and wonder an we feel in looking back at the day of the Spanish Inquisition. Every thought, desire sml emotion of our hearts is leaving its Impress on our brain cells, our features, our iiodies. The child born with a happy.loving, trusting disposition may be transformed into a fretful, cold, suspicious adult bv being reared among people who talk of the dark side of life, who repel or sneer at demonstrations of allVcliou, and who are always distrusting their fellow men. Exactly opposite results can be obtained by talking aud teaching the joy of life to the despondent child, showing aud expecting affectiou and instilllug divine trust in Its receptive mind. Lie gives us all more or lees rude blows. But the sooner we think of ourselves as Fate's punching hags, aud gayly swing back iuto our places, ourl itfmfraifl. Him U UUIUIIIIIOUVU HVVI ? for uh. Tbe man who thinks himself chosen l>y Fate for a peculiarly hard destiny is an egotlBt, as well us a pessimist, and he trill find his life growing harder, for hard, bitter thoughts make a hard, bitter destiny. With every breath we inhale and exhale we are thinking events in to shape aud moulding ourselves for strength or weakness wherewith to cope with those events. If trouble has come into your life and you are resentful and angry at haviug to bear your burden, you are not only weakening your powers of endurance, but you are opening the door to future suffering %na lesseuiug your force of resistance. You are sailing your character, which should grow stronger ana nobler under the strain of the inevitable. If you are constantly pitying yourself you will always ueed a consoler. He who makes light of iiisowu woes soon finds trouble seeking m?> * attentive listeners. Care is like a peddler?if you jest ami laugh at the mass or thing* *tie bring* to you, tube will pa*s your door on the next trip without calling. You who desire to change your unpleasant qualities?think and say each day, aud many timet* a day, that you are all you desire to be?useful, healthful, happy, successful. loving, worthy. And a* the days go by you will Mud these qualities coming to you. and the future will shape itself to flt them. 1 know this will l>e so?you ran provide for yourself.?Ella Wheeler Wilcox.

I Will mothers ever learn what a mixtake it i* to discuw their children's virtue** and fault* when the children are present? It in moat distressing to watch the effect of such au o|>eralion upon their ( mind*. I waa calling at the house of an ac- j quaintance the other day, who Kent the! maid up-ataira to bring down her Ave-1, year-old daughter for me to aee. After | shaking hanus with me the little tot j perched herself on a chair. Hitting ?|uite j i still, absorbing every word of the con- , venation, which bad turned into dis- | cussiou of the ways and peculiarities J, | of the little lady just mentioned and i her elder sister. | Now, that mother, I am sure, meant { no haam to her children; in fact I was amazed to observe how biiaafully uu-l, conscious she waa of the possibility of J i * ** 'L-4 Jatinn li> nnhlln , any bail eneci umi , , might have upon her child'- mind.: and yet I have heard that name mother criticise the same fault in other heads j 1 of families. , It would astonish thoughtless pa- ; rents to kuow the burniug restlessness J ' that obtains possession ot a young I mind that ha* been thoroughly aroused I ' to self consciousness. It would save to much trouble and] undoing if mother* would only open their eyes and realize that a greater part of their conversation before chll- j dren is too personal. If a child is sensitive or shy, criticism, esjiecially before oue who dues i not belong to the family, in sure to hurt her feelings, and if she is not in- i clined to be forward, nothing is so well < suited to encourage conceit. I It is gros* carelessness on the part of < parents, and thev should stop and eon- I sider before speaking and not go blind- i ly on, supposing that no harm can ' come of such a habit. i Beside the danger of developing I vanity, do you not see bow easily the ! habit of gossiping may tie acquired? i< The little parrols quickly catch the I idea, and, following the examples of I their elders, they fake keen delight in ,< telling what they know of the sayings;' 1 r\f Athpru. ( I mi<i uuiiikb -- The "showing 6fT" habit is another |l trait that seems to l>e universally in > vogue with parent*. It i* only naitiml ' thnt they should be proud of their chll- j dren's small accomplishments. which'1 children ?houl?l be taught to take as a ,1 matter of course, but. not allow them to 11 believe that they are "cute" or "smart" 1 on that particular occasion. A mother says : "Yon do n?t believe in this, and yet in all the schools the children are taught recitations and are , encouraged to give little entertain-! , ments. Why in that?" i ' It in l?ecau?e the majority of mothers < , delight in those exhibitions, not realiz-| . ing the harm thev do, and prnhablv would send their children elsewhere if t ' the school forbade such a course. I hope there is one school in this city | that has the courage to stand forth and j do away with that most deplorable ofj all endings to the school year, "com-, mencement exercises.'' Such entertaiumentH have a great deal to answer for. They force the schools to sacrifice real progress in pref- | erence to superficialities that never fail I niont ilia wed* of VHtlitV. self-con- 1 sciou-nes* and egotism in the mind of < the child. J1' Surely that is false education, in it i not? It In merely vanity in a parentM that demands and enjoya such a spec- J' taele. j' Why should we carry unpleasant j I thirg* when the world is ho full ofjl bright and helpful one*? The aad j1 and .sinful things exist, and we cannot ji shut our eyes to them. No law of | charity requires us to call black white. < and no law of kindness requires us to | part witli our common sense. The | wrong is wrong, and we must face it and deal with it as best we may; hut why treat it as a dainty to tie served at the family table, or carry it about for! I he delectation of our friends.
