England's lest tigain yesterday, taking the Lavant staVe nt the Goodwood meeting. Whether Cctywayo shall make a further stand or not, England's prepa rations for returning iier soldiery from South Africa indicate that she consid ers the war ended. "Bob Schilling, the managing edi tor of the Piatt party," is very confi dent that neither Ewing nor Armstrong can "induce" the Cleveland Nationals to vote the Democratic ticket this fall, General James M. Comlv, United .States Minister to the Hawaiian King dom, (one of the proprietors of the Statu Journal) arrived in the city yesterday in improved health. It is uncertain how long he will tarry with us, or in the United States. It is not worth while, during the hot weather, for any one to work himself into a heavy perspiration over the question as to who is to succeed to the Rus sian and British missions. All of our eastern contemporaries concede that Ohio may as well he counted out, Agreed! Ohio will get along all the same. It is authoritatively stated that the Republican headquarters at Washington are busy sending off documents daily in large quantities to States in which elec tions are soon to be held, and that these documents arc doing effective work. On the other hand it is asserted that the little amount of vitality that the Demo cratic headquarters had posse was knocked out of tb.em by Ewing when he returned there from New York the other day, moneyless, and with tho most pitiful kind of a story regarding finances available for his campaign. The main documents they have yet been able to distribute wcro some State rights speeches, the benefit of which to their cause is questionable. Altogether, as seen from a Washington standpoint, tho picture for Ewing not a bright one. ZANESViLLE. Colored Odd lellown Celebrnte-Oliit. nnry-Rcpnblirnn Club.

I therefore introduced it into those classes which had arrived nt the proper grade, and am happy to say that it surpasses my oxpeetattions. The mixturo of physical and politicnt geogrnphy gives a comprehensive knowledgo of the country or section studied, and tho questions aro so clearly cut mat n scnoiar Knows jubi wnai to learn, ana Has a aettnito information wbonever he bus got his lesson. From B. F. Owens, Superintendent of Schools, Noblesvillo, Ind.l Harper's Geography Is tho bostl have over seen. Tho map entitled "l'hysienl United States," together with tho author'e classification of the States and Territories, Is worth tho price of tho book. It is tho simplest and most philosophical method of presenting the geography of our common country that I have ever seon. And as Lake Champlain, Chosnpcako Bay, tho Appalachain nnd tho Kocky Mountains, and Hudson, Potomac, Onio and Mississippi rivers are hxttiros, tho classification need not chango, but iB as permanent .8 tho country itself. From William F. Pnti.ps, President of State Normal School, Whitewater, Wis.J Harper's School Geography is, in my Judgment, a decided advanun upon any similar text-book now beforo tho public. In the scientific treatment und grouping of tho topics, in the incisivencss of its Questions, in the beauty and cxcellenco of its illustrations, tho accuracy of its imps, and in it! adaptation to tho actual want, of tho school room, 1 know of no other text-book that equals It. Not the leaBt among its manyadmirablo features are tho concise treatises on local geography, Bpecially adapting it to all portions of tho country, iviy long acquaintance with its author as a most successful toucher in this department had raisod expectations which it gives mo pleasure lo say huvo been lully realized. 1 heartily commend the book to all teachcri who desire to reach tho best results in ticographicnl knowledgo. 1 am quite as well pleased with the Introductory Geography as with tlio advanced work. It has been prepared by a master of tho subject as well as of the true mothod of denting with young minds. I think tho matter is exceedingly well chosou, because well adapted to the capacities of children. Tho beautiful illustrations arc great aula in giving clear conceptions to tho children, while tho language in this little hook is well adapted to reach tho understanding of thoso for whom it is dosigned. 1 consider tho "Introductory" an exceptional svecess. Ilarpur'fl Geographies aro in use hero and givo entire satisfaction. From Horatio Ai.ukii, Chairman of School Committco, Nntiok, Mass. Harper's School Googrophy was adopted in the schools of Natick directly after its publication. It was seleoted atter u careful examination ot ull tho loading Geographies in use and our oxperienco with it thus far hnsjustillod our choice Tho topics fronted in it seem to huvo been solccted with reforcnoo to presenting the things most important to be known, excluding irrolovantand unimportant niattor. Tho maps nro excellont, nnd tho plan of having scpurato and political maps is a vnluablo feature of tho work. The maps ol tho divisions and subdivisions of tho United Stntos, tho commercial and industrial map of tho United States and tho mop of the principal ocean trado routes seem to mo espociatly valuaolo. Another pleasant feature of tho work is tho map and geography of each Stato, prepared for tho children of that State.
