Spring Come at Last.

We have actually had one or two thunde,
showers, followed by warm, sprirg-like days
of sunshine. Albeit we are no great lovers
| of thunder and lightning in the abstract,
still we must say, that on these late occasions
thunder has actuallay sounded as sweetly
as some hali-forgotten music, and the light
ming looked pleasant-both like some long
absent acquaintance, come back with tales
of Che past. The grass and flowers in field
and fell, in the woodland and on the prairie,
heard the voice and sprang up from their
long slumber, to adorn and beautify the
earth. Already we see patches of green,
here and there, where but a few days ago,
all looked bare and sterile.
Yes, Spring has come at last, the better
loved and appreciated perhaps, for being
somewhat tardy in its coming. We have
seen no early flowers yet, but their fragrance
seems to scent the gale, and tell Of their
coming. A thousand voices come on the
warm and hazy atmosphere borne along,
all telling us that Spring has come at last
We snuff the scent OF the fresh turned fur
row from affair, as we stand at our open win
dows, "setting up" this announcement
Among other sounds, occasionally tie song
of the noisy frog, soflened and mellowcd by
distance. comes floating past us, proclaim
ing that his Shiny pool has been loosencd
from the bands that bound it.
Well. Spring has come, and we rejoice
in common with the rest of mankind in its
coming. The farmer will away b!ithely tc
his JOYOUS task of planting and sowing
each DEMONSTRATING morn, for he has
waited impatienuy too long.

North Ward Free School.

1
We. in common with number of others,
SPECTATORS, ike ourself. had the pleasure OF
being present on Tuesday afternoon, at the
public examination ofthe Lower D Department.
of the North Ward Free School, under the
charge of Miss O'NErL. We understand
that the average daily attendance. during
the past term, HAS been about fifty pupils,
mostly quite young children. We were
much pleased with the evidence Of progress
made. andtheinterest displayed by the chill
dren in their several studies; showing the
the rsre gift of the teacher, for awakening
the young mind to the pleasures and impor-
lance of an education.
The exercises consisted of reading, SPELL
ing and defamation, relieved and enliven-
ed with singing by the scholars Many of
the little pupils read with conlmendable flu
ency, and all, in loud and distinct tone,
that is the foundation of good reading, and
promises well for what future instruction and
training will accomplish. In spelling, we
have seldom seen so young children do bet
ter, and indeed, wehaye seen scholars much
older and farther advanced, who would have
been put to the blush in spelling with them.
This is, a branch too apt to be overlooked
and neglected by teachers, who are anxious
to show off their pupils in some of the high
err branches. The Defamation by both
boys and girls, was really excellent. and
some of the Dialogues were spoken in a
manner which showed that they not only
understood, but entered fully into the spirit
of the authors.
AT the close of Tie exercises, speeches
were made by several of the gentlemenpres-
ent, all highly plimentary to both teach
ers and scholars. Several prizes were then
distributed by Col. FRANK, Superintendent
ofSchools, to those designated blythe teach
er as entitled to receive them
On the whole, we were highly entertain,
ed and delighted, as were all who were pres
ent. Miss NEIL has proved herself com
potent and very successful teacher of the
young, and we doubt whether her depart
ment of the school could be placed in better
hands .sr +. .s-a,.vG L. B ais.
TheUpper De partment isunderthe charge
Of MI. Y. BUTLEE, as Principal, who com
bines all the requisites ofgood teacher, and
the school under his charge has taken new
startthat promises well for its future pros
perity and excellence. Our citizens OF the
North Ward may well feel proud of their
school.
