Our Social Uirflc,
NV Best Schoolmaster.

The Independent gave an article short
time since, under this heading, which pre-
sents some points worthy Of commentator.
After describing two hard-crust teachers,
Mr.. Strapwell and Mr.. Birchal, we have
this sketch of Mr.. Daboll, man of gentle
ness and kindness
The morning when Mr.. Daboll was to en-
ter on duty was very fair. All around was
bright and clear. The birds sang, the flowers
were in bloom, and the grass was high and
green. Everything looked cheerful, and
the new teacher " was an object of great
anxiety to us all. But we had heard good
report Of him, and so we were content to
wait and see how he would turn out
At the time of opening school, the boys
gathered, and took their seats, aud soon the
teacher, with two of the trustees, was seen
coming up the road. The school-house was
pleasantly situated, with a. large lot around
it, with shade-trees, and grassy play
ground. When they entered, every eye was
turned to Mr.. Daboll. He took his place,
and after some conversation between the
trustees and himself, one of them stood up
and addressed the boys. He told us of our
duty. reminded us of the rules of the school
spoke of the necessity of oboying the teach.
er, and, IN fact, gave us stern exhortatior
and warning Of the penalties of delinquency
and disorder, and closed by introducing Mr.
Dabol as our new teacher. He then gave
the school into his charge, and the two trus
tees withdrew.
Mr.. Dabol was pleasant-lookipg man
and seemed to be at home almost from tn,
first. Tie listened to all that was said, looked
very sober during the lecture, and seemed t,
feel quite easy when it was done. Then po
litely bowling the trustees out Of the school
he waited little to see that they were wei
out of the way, and returned to the desk.
Boys" said he, in kind and familia
tone of voice.
1t was the first word he had said to u.s.
Every eye was fixed on him in moment
Every ear was quick to catch really friend
~ sound from the teacher. A pin could b
heard dropping on the floor.
"Boys!" said he, " | am glad to see 20
all looking SO well, and ii such excellent OF
Ger and attention. l am to be your teache
tor time, and | hope we shall be goo
friends, and find the school pleasant place
Your friend, Mr.. Wiseman, has just give
you some good advice, and as it is a kind c
rare occasion to have a new teacher come II
and the time is already pretty well along,
think we may as we'll have little talk t.
gether before we begin work. It's right

The Apples Of New England.

The apples of New England
How hang their loaded boughs,
Over the gray stone fences,
In reach of the dappled cows;
o!every red checked Baldwin,
Hath merry song to sing,
OF some old m ss-roofed cottage,
Where the farmer is king.
Yes, king of his bursting acres,
Whose grain takes thousand hues
Ia the wonder-tinting sunshine -
Yes, king in his cobbled shoes
King of the sturdy ploughshare;
King of the sickle keen;
King over Gods full meadows,
Budding in white and green.
The russets of New England!
What ruddy fires they see,
Where the crack of the veiny walnut
And the crack of the pine agree;
Where The herbs hang high in the chimney,
And the cat purrs on the hearth,
And the rollcking boys guess riddles,
With many shout of mirth.
And they hear the fearful stories
That troubled the children's sleep,
OF ghosts seen in the valleys,
And specters on the deep;
And they burst their sides with laughing,
And fling their rich wines round,
Or dance to a cunning piping,
As the corn pops white at bound.
OF the sweetings OF New England
Of the old Rhode Island stock
Brought from the English gardens
To grace the land of rock;
As fair as Brion's daughters,
As hardy as her men,
But fairer lads and lasses
Have plucked their fruit since then.
O! the Pearmain of New England,
With its blended milk and rose,
There's smell of Albion's orchards
Wherever the good tree grows;
A stout old pilgrim brought it,
And to cradle its seed he broke
The sacred soil of Hartford,
BY the roots of the Charter Oak.
. the pippins of New England.
What lovers smiles they see,
When their yellow coats in letters
Tell tales at the apple bee;
What rosy cheeks at the quiltings!
What kisses in husking time;
That soon lead off to the parson,
Or end In wedding chime.
o the apples OF New England
They are famous in every land,
And they sleep in silver baskets,
Or blush in jeweled hand;
They swell in delicious dreaming
On beautiful crimson lip,
And taste of nectared blisses
No lover has dared to sip.
They go to the southern islands,
They 60 the western wild,
And they tell of their glorious birth place
To every frolicking child
OF the home where men are noble,
And women as good as fair
OF the apples of New England,
They are welcome, everywhere!

Mourning, she weeps DER the common grave

And many tale she could tell, l ween,

severe as might be expected near the north pole.
An ambulance containing three passengers
was found, one day last week, upon the road
between Salt Lake and Fort Bridger, frozen
stiff. 1t appears that the fore feet of the lead
mules were frozen while in the act of stepping
forward, and the entire team stood in studied
attitude, resembling highly finished bronze stat

Some of our cotemporaries are dissatisfied
with the manner in which the President in his
second annual message alludes to the Pacific
Railroad question. They say his recomenda-
tons are luke-warm-his approval lacking in
heartiness
We beg leave to differ with these writer's
We think his endorsement of the great work is
hearty, specific, ample. He appeals to the pa
triotsm of the people in its behalf, by declaring
that it would be powerful bond of Uuion"
between the Atlantic and Pacific divisions of the
Republic. lie declares that " there are import
ant collateral considerations urging US q TO un-
derake tic acork as speedily possi5le.o Alludng
to the opening of the populous empires of China
and Japan to our commerce, he tells us that
the history of the world proves, that the nation
which has gained possession of the trade with
Eastern Asia, has always become wealthy and
powerful" and then adds that g to reap this
rich harvest" this railroad g is an indispensable
prerequisite
Is this language not sufficiently emphatic? If
not, go back to the commencement of the para
graph from which we have just quoted, and read:
"In commercial point of view, consider
this the great question Of tie day."
If this plain; hearty recommendation of the
great enterprise, Is not sufficiently strong 90
further back, to the opening sentence in refer
cnce to the Pacific Railroad, and read:
81 would again call your attention to the con-
struction of Pacific Railroad. Time and re-
Election have but served to confirm me in the
truth and justice of observations which made
| on this subject IN my last annual message to
which beg leave respectfully to refer"
Now, what are the " observations" which he
made on this subject in his previous annual mes
sage, and I" in the truth and justice OF which,
time and reflection have but served to confirm
him? Why, substantially the same as those
| made this year. If they were thought sufficient
ly hearty last year, how can they be deemed
road " would be powerful additional bond OF
union" So he says now. Last year he com
mended to the friendly consideration of Con-
gress the subject of the Pacific Railroad" and
all California said" we'll done, thou good and
faithful servant" This year he becomes more
earnest-urgcs that the work be undertaken "as
speedily as possible"-and straightway, strange
to say, some of those who clappcd their hands
last year, like sensible men, are weeping croc-
adile tears this year, like fools.
/ If then, the Presidents recommendations of
last year, touching this subject, gave satisfac-
ton to California, we cannot perceive any occa-
sion for finding fault with those of this year,
which are identical with those that received our
approval last year.

Rar The Troy newspapers mention one of the
silliest election bets on record. A gentleman
named Fanshaw, residing in Saratoga county,
offered to allow one Sanderson to burn down
his COW house if Judge Parker failed to get five
thousand majority for Governor. Mr. Sanderson
won the privilege Of touching off the cow-house;
Mr.. Sanderson touched off cow-house, and cow
house was burned to the ground In burning
the cow-house, however, Mr. Sanderson also
burned two cows, worth sixty dollars. Fanshaw
admits that his friend had perfect right to
burn the house, but not the cattle. For doing
this latter, Fanshaw has commenced suit against
Sanderson

CATCHING THE DUKE OF MALAKOFF.-The Paris
| correspondent of the Philadelphia Bulletin thus
describes the manner in which the Duke of Mall
akoif was captured by the Andalusian Beauty:
The bridegroom is certaidy neither young
nor handsome, but he can offer name that
| fame has bourne to every part of the civilized
world, and well earned titles; he car place in
the marriage corbeille twenty Russian flags
and many India shawls, or voants dAngle-
terre-and what fair one could resist such in
ducements ? Mile. Sophia Valera is twenty
eight years old !; her mother, the Marchoncss of
Paniza, is an intimate friend and relative of the
Countess of Montjo. with whom the bride re-
sides during her stay in Paris. The lady and
one of the suite were in the excursion to Cher
bourg, where, it is said, the proposals were
made.
The way in which this old lion was taken
captive BY this young gazelle is related as fol-
lows;
The Duke had, last winter, much admired the
Andalusian belle at the Tuilleres, but when the
subject of marriage was introduced he always
replied that he was too old. While walking one
day in the garden Of St. Cloud Mile Valera
gathered rose, and the Marshal asked if she
intended to bestow it on him; she replied with
rare apropos, No, Monsieur lie Duke, you only
like laurels." On this plain hint the veteran
took courage and spoke-or rather, he lost it
and Tell into the tolls.
