rENIE undersigned, Trustees of CLACKAMAS

ihed that they can still commend this Institution
to the patronage OF the public.
The recent examination held August 9th, evin.
ces the fathfulness and success Of the Teachers
MR.. & MRS. f. D. SHATTUCR.
They seem to have gained the love and confidence
Of the pupils generally while their strict discipline
secures that order and regularity in tho exercises
Of the school which are so essential to educate and
train the youthful mind.
We were pleased with the readiness with which
the little girls Of six and eight years answered their
questions in geography and mental arithmatic.
The exercises OF the higher classes on the BlacR.
board, in grammar and physiology, were highly
crediAble, both to themselves and 10 the teachers
1t is unnecessary for us 10 specify all the studies
thus honorably reviewed. The general impression
on our minds, and we believe on the minds Of an
who were present, was that our Daughters may
here obtain thorough Mental Education, combin
cd With the best Moral Training.
We rejoice to feel that the Institution is thus be-
ginaing 10 realize more fully the idea Of its found
eTs and that it promises to be a rich and perma.
nent blessing to this community and 10 ths Terri
tory.
We are happy also bo know lhatthe department.

Smile again oh! smile again
Though thine eyes be dimmed with tears
Though thy path b. one of pain,
overspread with darkning fears,
Cleans of joy yet unrevealed
Sill the future may posses
Flowers amid The gloom concealed
To cheer the sPirit's wilderness.
Hop, again yes, hope again
BID ,be shldOwy past depart
Listen to the syren strain,
Let her music WOO thy heart
Trust her though thou BE- deceived,
Though thy faith in her is gone;
Happier far than if bereaved
or each hope that lurcd thee on.
What though she may mock thy grief,
In thy anguish take no heed
Cans't hou ooI find some relief
For the present hour Of need
Though she cheat thee With a smile,
Sill that smile may cheer and bless,
SOoihe thy spirit for while,
In a time of deep distress.
Love again yes, love again
Though loves fairest flowers be dead,
Still some blossom may remain,
That will yet perfume shed
Hidden germs to burst as fair,
Buds that have outlivcd the storm
That only need thy fostering care,
And gentle bIe 70 bring them on.
What though friends have left lhy side,
What though VOWS in sand were traced,
Aud each wave Of sorrows tide
Fresh memorials has efaced
Yet that wave may also bring,
From some deep unfathom'd mine,
Treasures at thy feet 10 fling,
Which bad never else becn thine.
Mourn ye not, though friendship lies
Withering when The sun declines;
Weep not though affection flies,
Like bird to brighter cIImes;
Cherish IAaa which may remain
When life's path shall saddest be;
Grateful give thy love again,
Cling to those who cling to theO.
Fortunes lrowns, all uncontrolled
Future days may shrOud in night;
Yet the darkest hour, we're told,
Comes before the morni@g kgAa.
