Want of School Interest in Parents.

This sdoubtlessthe sorest evil with which
teachers and officers of schools have to con
tend. To see those who should take the
most lively interest, and be most Jealous and
ambitious for The welfare of schools, indif-
ferent, and utterly regardless of anything
that may concern them, is enough to cool
the zeal of the most faithful teacher, and
throw, as it were, cold water upon every
spark of the FIRE of awakened Interest which
he is trying to kindle into flame in the
breast of his pupil. This apathy manifests
itself in variety of ways; in the want OF
proper attention to securing good teachers,
and then cheerfully rewarding their efforts:
in allowing scholars to be absent or often
tardv. which is more offensive to good or
der, and almost as great an evil: IN omit
ting such examination OF children at home
as will incite them to make greater efforts
for Improvement; in the neglect of parents
to visit schools, to see whether teachers are
discharging their duties in faithful and eff
iicient manner, and whether their own chill
dten are receiving the attention which is
their due. have often wondered, since be-
ing somewhat intimately acquainted with
the schools of Keno>ha, if the patrons real
" had such ua5ounded confidence in the
teachers whom perhaps they have never
seen, or at least with whom they have but
Slight acquaintance. that they consider 1t
wholly unnecessary and even superhuous,
for them ever to look in upon the school, or
whether it is sheer Indifference with regard
to the welfare Of their children, which causes
them thus to stay away.
tne or the other of these reasons must
prevail, else, why is it that not one in TWEEN
ty-fye of the patrons of the Free Schools.
in this city, ever give the influence of their
presence at the school building to encourage
the efforts there being made. If parents
need the aid OF good schools, is it not evil
dent on the other hand. that these schools
need the aid and countenance of parents?
Should they not visit the workshop where
the minds Of their children are being cloth
ed with garments which shall adorn and
heautify them so long as life lasts, yes, and
throughout eternity. as often atleast as they
do the dress-maker or tailor? How can a
teacher make deep impressions upon chill
dren who feel that their parents are indiHer-
ent to their improvement, and that they
have much more concern for their physical
than their mental condition? II.

Years before the constitution OF the State granted
TO every youth within lis limits free education.
the foundation of our system was laid aud by the

the accomplishment Of this enterprise, the ener-

A FREAK OF GENEROSITY. Of the
most penurious of bachelors this afternoon
after attending the opera, was guilty of
making gift under circumstances some

store and accosting very pretty attendant,
inquired the price of hat he saw in the
window. She took it out. and in order to
show its beauties. placed it on her own
head with just pitch enough to make it ia
king. The old bachelor admired it, and
pulling ten dollars from his pocket book
concluded to buy it. The attendant took
the money and with pencil in hand inquir-
ed where she should send it. v
"Wear it yourself, my dear" was. his
blunt reply as he left the store.-Bostos

RAT PRooF Conn CRIB.--A friend has
sent us the following directions for building
Rat Proof Corn Crib, building that is
much needed on every farm, especially
where corn is SO scarce and rats SO plenti-
full. Try it:
"In farming let the sleepers into the side
fsils 50 that the top ofthe sleepers and stills
will be level; joint your flooring, drive up
tight, and nail down fast, and you have a
floor that will neither loose your scattered
corn, nor let in the rats or mice.
Neither use stone or brick for under pin
ming, for the rats viii certainly undermine
them, and your stills settle; but use good
blocks, two feet long, brought to a square
at the top Of the size of your SILL Use
these precautions, and will guarantee you
a complete radiance of the rat tribe, it YOU
do not let them in at the door. Farmer

A SURPRISED PARTY-A letter from San
Francisco, California, speaking ofthe frail
character of the wooden tenements sent to
that country, says:
A lady arrived in the steamer and put
up at one of the San Francisco hotels. She
retired early to her room, which happened
to adjoin that in which were party of gen
tfemeu enjoying a social game of cards.
The lady was faligued and restless, and in
attempting to turn over in her bed. came
against the partition, which gave way and
let her through into the room of the card
players. The CONSERVATION of both parties
canbe more easily imagined than described.
