Annual Exhibition Of the Rockville

AlSu tC0OOi.
The second annual exhibition Of the
Bronkvillc High School, under charge
Of Rev Russell r. Abbott, took place in
the Presbyterian church at this place
on Intervening of tho 9TH and 9Th OF
July. The exercises wcrc conducted hy
Mr. Abbott. and his assistant teachers,
before very iargc and delighted audi
cncc. with admirable taste and Judge
mcnt. We were favorably impressed
with tho absence of all attempt Mt dis-
play and the admirable discipline OK
hib,ed by tho pupils and Students
From the smallest pupil to the most
advanced STUDENT each and all did well
their part, and for tho first timc We
witnessed nm exhibition without a single
failure. II was amusing to witness the
admirable discipline as few of tho pu-
pills, forgetting for short timc their

MUSIC.
Tho vocal music of the pupils was vc-
~ fine and evidenced both ability and
duplication on tho part of Mr.. Abbott.
Miss Lynch and other assistants. Some
Of their pieces wero of tho highest or.
der OF performance.
THE CHOIR.
The music Ivy tho vocal choir was
admirable, and brought out the quail.
tics Of the several performances with
happy effect. We cannot refrain from
mentioning the superior performances
of Miss Lynch. whose voice In power
and melody, is seldom surpassed.
THE PIANO.
Miss Ada Raymond who rresidcs
over this department must, rs we'll ms
the friends OF her pupils, feel gra,ified
ut the result &c their performances. =
Miss Haymond's exhibition gives prom.
lac of great success. In al cascs she
brought out her pupils without any as.
sistanec. requiring anexhibition of their
own skin snaided by their teacher
The young Misses, without exception
did themselves and teacher much cred
liz.
The essays. dialogues and declama-
tions were highly crediIable to the fac
uliy and students. giving assurance
that under the instruction of Mr. Abbott
Mr. Ward aud Miss Lynch, the Brook
willie High School has become fixed
fact.
The exercises closed with n valedic
tory by Miss Augusta Bassett. Of most
decided merit in composition aud dcliv'

Wc are grntified to learn that the ser

will probably DO secured for the mex
year. and we predict for the school in
creased success.

ful farmers, il ii is not so. It follows that
the farmer wants less land or more labor.
The latter is our remedy. The farmer. il
seems to us, should not ask how little help
be could skim along with, but now much he
can employ profitably.
And remember, farmers, that the more
help you can employ, and vet secure fair
return for yourself, the better for the coun-
try; for you thereby afford encouragement
to men to escape from the filth and wretch
edness Of our cities, and to seek an employ
ment more favorable TO whatever is virtuous
elevating, and patriotic.
II would be too much to ask the farmer Il
employ men to keep them out of idlenes'
and vice, without reasonable prospect o
remuneration. but when such prospec
is presented, the farmer who rejects the op
portunity sins against his own interest, ant
fails Of being benefactor where he nigh
be one.

!" HAVE PATIENCE

A youth and maid. one winter night,
Were sitting in the corner,
His name, we're told, was Joshua White,
And hers was Patience Warner.
Not much the pretty maiden said,
Beside the young man sitting;
Her cheeks were fiushd a rosy red,
Her eyes bent on her knitting.
Nor could he guess what thoughts Of him
Were to her bosom Aocking.
As her fair fingers, swift and slim.
Flew round and round the stocking.
While, as for Joshua, bashful youth,
His words grew few and fewer;
Though all the time, to tell the truth,
His chair edged nearer to her.
Meantime her ball of yarn gave out,
She knit so fast and steady;
And he mus, give his aid, no doubt.
To get another ready.
He held her skein, Of course The thread
Got tangled, snsrled and twisted;
" Have Paiience" cried the artless maid.
To him who her assisted.
Good chance was this for tongue.tied churi,
To shorten all palaver;
Have Patience" cried he, dearest girl
And may really have her !"
The deed was done; no more that night
chick'd needles in the corner;
And she is Mrs. Joshua White
That once was Patience Homer.
