that there is plenty Of good peat and loan not
far FRI IN Troy it is in the vicinity of the small
pond near by, and is not generally understood
by the farmers to be combustbe and fertilizing,

do not know what it is. You may expect to
hear something from him that will interest the
public.

and economy in this business is misplaced-
Your boys and girls are forming habits, and
receiving impressions which last always. A
good farmer would not engage vicious or
incompetent man to break his cattle for him
no, not if he would do it at half price,
And, lastly, when you have got good school
house and good teacher, don't imagine that
you have finished the business. Every man,
who sends TO the school, should take interest
enough in it, 10 call in occasionally, and see
how the school comes on. A farmer would
hardly set stranger at work in his field, and
pay him sound price, without looking in
to see if the business went on properly. Let
the teacher feel, and the children see that
you attach some kind of importance TO their
mental and moral training; it will encourage
and stimulate them both TO greater usefulness
and activitv.-Galary.

THE SCHOOL HOUSE.

Now is the time, for our farmers to COM
mencc preparing for the winter school. We
are afraid the importance of this school busi-
ness is too much moderated. In the first
place, it is all important that the school room
should be comfortable house not rlckety
old barn with half the windows out, and the
wind bowling through the cracks. Children
cannot study, with every thing uncomfortable
around them. Their health must be attended
to, unless you want them coming home AT
night with colds, coughs and favers, and be-
fore the winter is half out, compelled to stay
at home, and lose half the benefit of the
school. Then, we beg you not to hire a
teacher, because you can get his services
cheapy. Your cheap teachers are not the
thing. This education is a matter for life !:

SECURING FORTUNE BY MARRYING
THREE SIsTERs.-A story is told OF one Of
the newly elected senators from the river
counties TO the Ohio Legislature, which shows
that he is good at holding on in good cause.
a few years ago he courted and married a
young lady who had two sisters, possessing
among them large fortune. HIS wife died,
and by some means her share of the proper
ty did not fall to him, but remained in pos
session OF the two surviving sisters. He
couucd and married the second one, who 10
the mean time had arrived at womanhood.
BY her he had one child: sSoa after, she too,
died, and it was arranged that the property
remained in the other sister, and neither could
come into possession Of it until this offspring
was of age. la the meantime the third Sis
ter came to maturity. What did our hero
do but court and marry her.-'He didn't do
anything else ! and is now in possession of
the whole fortune originally left to the three
sisters II any one doubt this romantic and
singular story they will find il fully confirm
ed by enquring in Scioto county. The late
election has placed HIM in the Senate of that
growing State, and if he looks after her in
teresls with the assduity he did after his own,
he will doubtless prove the mos, valuable
member, who takes his seat ut Columbus this
winter.

We publish to-day part of The public
laws of the late session. Among these are
two Which we deem of great importance
the one regulating common schools, the 9TH
or aboishng the school fund, and paying off
the State Debt. The State is now square
with the world, and no individual now living
has been taxed farthing to do it. But the
locofocos have assured their readers for the
last three or four years that the adjustment
OF this paper fund would deprive our schools
of the support they are now annually receiv-
ing, and that the school houses would at once
be closed. Very well, the deed is done !;
the school fund is abolished and now we
bescech every man, woman and child in the
community to observe, closely, and see if
they can perceive any difference. See
whether the schools 60 on as usual, whether
you get your public money as usual, and
whether your taxes are any more than usual
The proof of good pudding is in the eating.
This is now fairly served up, and we are
willing 10 bide the result.

THANKSGIVING.

1t will be observed tina, Gov. SLApE has
appointed the 9th day Of November for our
annual thanksgiving festival. We think the
time well chosen, as it will give little more
loe.way for the commencement of our winter
schools. The proclamation is no, published
as heretofore, in handful form. The Clerpy-
men of the several denominations, who NAV
be disposed to read it from their pupits, are,
therefore, requested to use, for that purpose,
the papers in which they may fnd it pub
lished.
