COMMON ScHooLs.-Heaven forgive us if
we are wrong but it always did seem to us
strangely inconsistent in an enlightened
people, to neglect schools, while they can
pay money to support churches. We love
to see Gods house raising its spire among
the dwellings of His creatures, and we love
to see, standing by it, the less snowy edi-
flee, where the understandings of the chill
dren of men are expanded till they can
knowingly receive and digest instruction in
those things that pertain to their future
welfare. 1t is strange that people, who
can support minister of the Gospel, can
not furnish the means to erect comfortable
buildings, and pay teachers for the instruc-
tion of the rising generation. We have in
this place, churches, finished and unfinish-
ed, enough for twice our present population,
and there are no more school houses now,
than there were six years ago, when the
population of the town was not one fourth
Of what it is at present. There is not Il
properly constructed common school editice
here--not one.

A RHODE ISLAND MATRoN.--Thep pension
act of 1886 makes provision for the payment
of pensions TO the widows of those who
served in the war of the revolution. Among
others is an aged lady, of Coventry, r. l., a
brief shetch ofwhom will be found bellows
"Mrs. Dorcas Matteson, of Coventrys
aged 81, borned December 8, 1747, was mar
ried March /, 1770, and is now the widow
of Daniel Matteson of Coventry, deceased,
who was soldier of the Revolution. Dor.
cas- is the youngest of twenty -one childrens
her mother had 81 children in 25 years,
and lived to the age of94. Dorcas has now
l ll6grand children, and she now enjoys good
health, and is capable of doing good day's
work.
The following is the conclusion Of her
declaration which she has recently made to
obtain pension under the act of Con-
gress of July A, 1886, which we have been
permitted to take:
She cannot specify her said husbands
service after 80 great length of time; but
she well remembers he went into the service
in all seasons of the year, and she was fro-
quenty obliged to labor on the farm in his
absence, as no help could be obtained. She
dug potatoes, made cider, and harvested
about sixty bushels of corn one fall, while
her husband was in the service; and in the
summer she moved and raked hay land also
cut wood for the family. All this labor
she did on her own farm while her husband
was in the service. She had her husbands
work to do out of doors and her own in the
house; and through the blessing Of God, she
is still living and enjoys good health.
Her signature is placed to the above with
an unwavering hand.

why the Vermlion steamboat has not vlsi-
