Prof. Tick has a new theory.
Ho thinks the construction oi!
due to this cause than to any
other. The school boy, brimming
over with life and undeveloped
power, is intent upon everything
save his regular school work,
lie puts all his heart into the
ball match or the skatting pond*
but his studies he deems dull
and tedious, and only gives them
a halfhearted attention* On
soitie future day when tliey are
no longer bis daily occupation,
but. the resource ot his leisure
hours, he will look back with
regret and wonder at his former
life. So the laborer in the
field or in the workshop, in the
office or factory, often feels
tired an.d impatient ot bis own
proper business. He is not idle
or torpid, he enters with spirit
into other things, and imgines
that were his occupation some-
thing different from what it is
ho Would perform it with en
thusiastio alacrity. As it is, he
contents himself with going
through its routine in a lifeless
mechanical way, as the quality
ot the work soon attests, when
compared with that into which
intelligent and zealoun energy
have been in fused.—Philadel-

It is apparent, says the San

Throckmorton as its candidate

Texas can stock the State Con-
