atvo of the capture and escape of Mrs. Jane

Tho soldier stated hero, on his arrival, that
ho was unable to keep up with the Wagon,
with Mrs. Wilson and two boys, the Mexican
driving. and as his horse was worn down, and
on coming up TO tho wagon he found the wom-
an and both the boys gone, and tho Wagon

The soldier carried him to small stream near

LET'S SIT DOWN AND TALK TOGETHER.
ny THOMAS MAcKELLAR.

Let's sit tdown and talk together
or the things of olden day,
When we like lambkins loosed from tethes,
Gaily tripped along the way,
Time has touched us both with lightness,
Leaving burrows here and there,
And tinging with peculiar brightness
Slvery threads among our hair.
Let's sit down and talk together
Many years away have passed,
And foul and fair has been the weather
Since we saw each other last.
Many whom we loved are living
In better world than this
And some among us still are giving
Toll and thought for present bliss,
Let's sit down and talk togetlier
Though the flowers of youth are dead
The ferns still grow am,ng the heather,
And for us their frogrsnce shed.
Life has thousand blessings in il.
Even for the aged man.
And God has hid in every minute
Something we may wisely scan.
Let's set down and talk togaher
Boys we were-we now are men;
We meet awhile, but know not whether
We shall meet TO talk again.
Parting time has come: how fleeily
Speed the moments, when their wings
Are fam ed by bre athirgs issuing sweetly
From tongue that never stings!

EDITOR SrANDARD:-I recently attended an
examination of one of our Common Schools,
which interested me very much. AS your
readers are doubtless, the friends and patrons
of Educa,ion they will be gratifed with some
notice of this examination, and the proceedings
of the Educational Society of this Township.
This is one Of the smallest schools in the
Township, and has, for several years past, had
to encounter many local difficulties and dis
couragements' The district has not been able
to employ male teacher for several winters.
and to have only short schools in summer and
winter.
Miss Cornclia Bundy taught tho school
last summer and it was very fortunate for the
district that, her services were secured the
past winter. But few Teachers have given, so
general satisfaction 10 all concerned; or have
closed their schools with so much credit to
themselves and their employers. The exami-
nation took place at the close of tho school,
with crowded house of the friends and pat
rons, and of Teachers aud Scholars from
other parts of the Township. Tho schol-
ars were examined in all the rudiments of
learning usually taught in common schools;
interspersed with compositions, in the form of
paper, TO which the scholars had contributed
with defamation, and the singing of some
short ditties. The parts were well sustained,
and the order, method and variety, which
characterized the exercises, exhibited very
strikingly, tho happy manner in which tho
frai Tba IL.
scholars merited, and received full share of
the credit, for their industry and good conduct
The Daguerreotypes of four of the little
girls grouped together on one plate were OBJ
tanned by the teacher as reward of merit
and exhibited at the public examination of the
schools in the Township. The scholars had
become quite familiar with thcir studies, and
performed the parts assigned them, with
promptness and accuracy. The knowledge of
mental Arithmetic, and the survey of the State
in its divisions and sub divisions, was pecu-
larly gratifying. Miss Bundy has given the
best of evidence, that she is in all respects
qualified to teach children and YOUTH to gain
their affections, and to exert a salutary moral
and religious influence around them; and that
she has profted by the instructions and exam
pie of her father, who was for several years
school instructor, and is one of the most ar
dent and efficient friends of education. She
has already commenced a summer school in
Moscow, and it will be the fault of the EN-
ployers, if they do not have first rate school
At the close of the examination, several
short addresses were made expressiye of the
interest ano satisfaction which the exercises
had afforded; and commendatory aad cncour-
ngingto the teacher and scholars That Of
the venerable Judge Pratt, was particularly in
teresting; contrasting the present state of the
school; the Improvement in tho books, and the
method of teaching, with what they were TWEEN.

Death of Venerable Lady. Mrs. Ham
ilton, relict of the late Alexander Hamilton,
died at Washington on the 9th inst. She
was 90 years Of age, and passed the greater
portion Of her time lauerly in knitting.
She delighted in game Of chess, ~ rem
inisences of the revolution, rnd seemed TO
live over again the brilliant scenes in the
life Of her distinguished father and hus-
band.
Mrs Hamilton was the daughter Of Cen
eral Phillip schuyler, and was born in the
city Of Albany in the building known as
'.he old Schuyler Mansion" She was mar
ried 10 General Hamilton, in the same city,
10 December. 1850. Al the time Of the
marriage, Hamilton was one Of the aids to
General " ashington. with he rank OF lieut..
col, and was Just completing his 24ih year.
Mrs. Hamilton has survived her husband a
little more than fifty years. Gen. Hamilton
was in the 4sih year of his age when he
died, and left Mrs. Hamilton and eight chill
dren, four boys and four girls, the youngest
then an infant.
The n. Y. Commercial Advertiser says
Mrs. Hamilton has resided in Washington
with devoted daughter for some years, en-
loving a green old age, and like Mrs. Mad
lson, nau hef "tehly itN'Pei"" "'ol "'"S'
and was always active in welcoming friends
She seldom if ever went into general socie-
", but on one occasion, and by particular de-
sire, attended one of the Presidents leyees
where she excited the admiration of all and
supported by the Presidents arm, was intro
duced to each of his guests as specimen
Of nearly a century past.
Her father, General Schuyler, was borI
in 1874, and died in 1904, at the age OF a
years.
