An account of tho kindergarten io
Germany, the place of its-origin, nnd
where it is in sucei ssful operation, may
prove interesting to those who concern
themselves with educational mutters.
We take it from an able French work
by Edgar Bourleiou,, ontitlcd ''L'Allu
magne Gontempornine," the author
having been taken prisonor in the late
Franco Prussian war, and, while con
fined in Germany, occupied in studying
all sorts of German institutions for the
beiicfit of Iub 8omewhnt heedless country
men. He finds a great deal to adniie
in Germany, and among other th;ngs
I the kindergarten for the proper educa<
tion of children to prepare .them for
schools.
THE F1R0T KINDERGARTEN.

stimulated to do so by his own sufferings
in childhood.. He was a disciple of
PfeBtalogei, a flwiss and a reformer of
popular schools. After ithe war of 1813
Froribel estyblished at CeLlhau, in
Thuringiu, a school for children of from
two to seven years of age, bringing to
.boar on t?ho .theory of nature's process
the experience of his own .childhuo 1.
He called this school a "kindergarten,"
or olr'ilti gatdun, for the reason, as he
btated, thai a child .was s young jilunt,
arid 'dbnuld bctr-e&rod accordingly. At

out this plan never did he depart from

Nothing, t-ava hi. Bourleton, is more
interesting than a visit to a German
kiudergartcu It consists of a large
well-ventilated structure, to which is
always attached a garden planted with
trees and Jlowers. The children ocoupy
its vnriouB rooms according to ago, the
bpys -on one side aud the girls on tho
other j .a child is admitted as soon as it
cad walk ; they number all sizes, from
two to six. years of age. Frcebel was
averse to sending children to regular
ichools bofbre the ego of seven. The
children of tho rich hnvo kindergartens
of their .own, for which a chargo of
Feven dollars a ycai is made, while tho
kindergartens for the poor uro tree,

An inspection for cleanliness takes
place ; no large spots, holes or rents ara
allo-ved all this, indeed, being furo
stalled by tho pride as well as interests

An idea of lines, shapes and proportions
?every conception, in fact, necessary in
th? perfection of a high Or odrnpUoitcd
edifice?is awakened in their little
braius. Each observes his neighbor's
work, and, when invention flags, copies
and imitates. Talking is permitted,
and thar.ks to every ono being occupied
Vfith his own work, there is no noise.
Tjie more advanced pupils aro given
more difficult tasks. Sonic weave to
gethcr strips of paper of different colors
and of symmetrical design, like squares,
circles, stars and other shapes which re
quire closer attention. Practice renders
tho children skillful, it being supfising
to sec how rapidly th6 pupor glides
tlirough their fingers, and issues fro n
them in proper shape Others fill up
with n load pencil progressive geometri
cal designs traced beforehand, and which
are afterwards reproduced without the
model with rcinarkeblu accuracy.
Others execute in transparency, with
the point of a pin, houses, dngs and
flowers, or repeat tho outlines of these
objects in worsted work. An hour of

them ; tliey ure obliged to talk and get

THE rUNlSU.MKNT.
Therj remains ono point more on
which to soy something, and that is the
philosophy of punishment, in principle, 1
puuishment is -not considered either as
curative or with a view to inako an
ex amp lo It is avoided as much as
possible. Never is the child whipped,
oo the contrary, it is placed iu a cornor,
away from tho playthings, aud whon
convinced that it has douc wrong the
punishment ceases, lasting but a short
time, and ending ivhen repentance
shows itself. Tho object is to let tho
child sco that labor, far from being a
trial is really a pleasure, true punish
inont consisting of a privation of work .
Children nre never praised on accoun t
ot dexterity, skill being regarded as the
natural result of labor; thorn is no
smiling nt awkwardness, no word being
uttered that will provoko rivalry. Such
nre tho principles and operation of the
German kindergarten. When ono con
sideta the luitehiuf dons to youth,
through tho stimulating of precocious
talent, and the injury to the brain by
foroiog it'to ontortain inooinprohousiblo
abstraction;.!, both being evils in the
bringing up of our youth, it is well to
study a-system ? like that of Fitobel's,
which fee inn to insure a sound, healthy,
natural development, by not bond tog the
twig in a wi-ong direction.

Love of Fun in Animals.
It is well known that lumbs hold
regular sports apart from their dams,
which only look on composedly at a little
distance to watch, aud perhaps enjoy
their proceedings. Monkeys act in the

Mr. Leigh Hunt once told Dr. Kobert
Chambers that he had observed a young
spider sporting about its parents, run
ning up to and away from thotn in a
playful manner. He has likewise watch
f*d a kitten amusing itself by running
along past its mother, to whom she nl
ways gave a little pat on the cheek as
sho passed': The elder cat endured the
pats tranquilly for awhile; but at length
becoming irritated, sho took an oppor
tuniiy to hit hor ollspring a blow on the
side of tho head, which sent the little
creature npiuniug to the other sido of
the room, where she looked extremely
puzzled at what had happened. Au

Tho fatality -which has attended the
