Poetry.

Prentice thus eloquently answers the
question-.what is poetry?" "A smile,
tear, a glory, longing after the
things of eternity! It lives in all creas
ted existence. in man, and every object
that surrounds him. There is poetry in
the gentle influence Of love and affection,
in the quiet broodings of the soul over
the memory of early years, and in the
thoughts Of that glory that chain our
spirits to the gates of paradise. There
is poetry, too, in the harmonies of ma
ture. .,..

of age. It may also be safely estimated
that of the persons Is and under 20, one
ffh, or s3 .260, under l6.
Adding these numbers to the numbers
eiyen for the intermediate ages. we OBJ
tam a total of 494, ,9e3, as the number OF
children over the age of A, and under
l6. who were in this State, in le4O. ut
thus appears, that the proportion be-
tween the number Of children OF tit age
to be in school. and the number of the
whole population, was, very nearly as
l to 8. That we may rely on this as a
correct ratio, cannot doubt, for the
reason that it is fully corroborated BY
actual enumerations, which have been
made in other States Of the Union, where
the ratio between children and adults
would most naturally be about the same
rs in this State:
"A comparison of the census of THU
St ale taken in 1910, with that taken 10
1920. shows that in the intervening II
years, the increase of our population
was 81 per cent. A comparison OF the
census Of le40, with that of 1880, shows
an increase Of the interval, Of 62 pc

d A circumstance happened in one
of the towns of Arkansas. A man had
been drinking until late hour at night,
before he started for home Honest
folks had long been in bed, and the
houses were all shut and dark. The
liquor he had taken was too much for
him; he did not know where to go. he
at last staggered into an empty wagon
shed, and fell upon the ground. For a
long time he lay in all the unconscious
ness of drunken sleep. and undoubtedly
would have frozen, for the snow on the
ground showed the night to be very
cold. had no others less insensible than
himself been around him. This shed
was lavorite rendezvous for the hogs.
which were out when the new conner arr
rived, but soon returned to their bed. In
the utmort kindness, and with the truest
hospitality, they gave their biped COM
panion the middle Of the bed; some lying
on either side Of him, and others acting
the part of quilt. Their warmth pre-
vented him from being injured by expos
sure. Towards morning he awoke
finding himself comfortable, in blissful
ignorance of whereabouts he supposed
himself enjoying the Accommodations oil
tavern in company with other gentle>
men. He reached out his hand and
catching hold Of the stiff bristles of a
hog, exclaimed. "Why mister, waen
did you share last

And we have total Of l,S77,652
Now apply the ratio of l to 8, which
we have already verified, and we arrive
at the fact that there are, at this time,
at least, 100000 persons in the State ol
Ohio, who are between the ages of a and
| 10. This means that there GOO, ,OOC
minds in the State, which ought to have
the benefit of schools, and for the proper
culture of which, the people of Ohio are
responsible.
| 1t was part of the duty Of the Off
GERS, who took the national census oI
1910, to ascertain in each State. the
number of scholars annually attending
the primary schools, In the State ol
Maine, in a total white population OF
500, 43s. those officers reported as being
in the primary schools l64, ATT scholars.
These were about one third Of the pop
ulstion. At the same time, in the pri-
mary schools of the State Of Ohio, they
found but. .2ls,609 scholars,or only about
one.seventh Of the population. Had the
children Of Ohio been as we'll cared for
as the children sof Maine, the number
found in our primary schools would have
been nearly 500, 900.
How many are now in attendance, in
the course Of year, upon the primary,
or common schools Of this State, is, as
have already intimated, question which
cannot be answered, because it is not a
subject upon which our own laws secure
to US any reliable statistics. But as it
is very certain that our system Of educa-
tlon has not improved during the last
FIVE years, we cannot but feel assured,
that if we could procure the statistics Of
the present time, they would be found
quite as discreditabIe as those of1s4O.
By the laws Of Ohio, the Secretary OF
State is nominaIly the superintendent Of
common schools. In his last annual
report upon the condition of our common
schools, this officer has given us all the
statistics obtained by him for the past
year, but they are so miserably medger
and incomplete, as to be utterly useless,
except, as by that very fact itself, they
show that our system of education needs
the helping hand Of reform.
The whole number of scholars, which
the secretary has given any account Of,
as attending our common schools, is en-
ly 56.517. He had received no reports
from nearly half the counties in the
State, and the unsatisfactory character
Of the reports, which he did receive,
may be Judged of by that from Franklin
county, in which there were reported,
for the year 1544, 152 school districts,
with only 81 schools. and but 69s schol
ars in attendance. Yet Franklin county
has within it, at least, 10000 children,
who ought to be at school, and there was
apportioned to it, for school purposes,
during the last year, neprly 1000 dollars
of public money.
In facts like these, the patriot and the
philanthropist have food for deep and
anxious reflection. While it is with
pain that command them to your con-
sideratioa-.i it is with sincere earnestness
