Road and Study.
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. Unless some replies sonn
reach us we will put somebody down
as a transgressor of one of tho ten
commandments. Shall we call the

The Neighbor, now?1870?ill its
twelttb year, continues an Advocate ol
Christianity ? 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. In aid id the further
rcestablishmcutof this faith and prac
tice of Primitive Christians, the Neigh
bor continues an unswerving advocate.
The Neighbor circulates iu mote than
thirty States of the Union, and has been
found to be an excellent advertising
medium ; yet. only one page can be ap
propriated to advertisements, and these
must bo select.
A trial of the paper will the bo'for en
able a person to judge of Its merits and
