A WORD TO DIRECTORS.

| MIR. EDrToR:-
The duties of directors are so well defined
| in the Common School Law and in the instruc-
tons of the School Department, that they can
not be mistaken. Hence, it is not our design
to say what directors should do. All that teach
ers, and all that the community ask of them, is,
to perform the duties enumerated, without ex-
ceptng any.
But that to which we desire to call attention
is, the slow and unsystematic manner in which,
some boards of directors perform their duties.
They are always 'behind time" they never
make any arrangements in proper season; and,
consequently, when any one inquiries of them
for any information, concerning teachers sala-
ries, length of term taught, &C., they cannot
give it, ''bccause they have not yet come to any
definite conclusion on the subject"
This delay on the part of directors is unfavor-
able to prosperous condition of the schools,
and besides, it is highly inconvenient to teachers
The majority of teachers are persons of limited
means and cannot well afford to spend day after
day in trying to ascertain what directors intend
to do. We have seen the best qualified candi-
dates at township examinations leave the dis
tricts with deep disappointment and determi-
nation not to return, for the sole reason that d-
rectors could not, or would not give them any
satisfactory information. Thus, through the
hardness of the directors, the district lost the
services of well qualified and faithful instructors.
And why is this? Is this delay at all nccessa-
ry? Is it necessary that teachers be always re-
1ulred to attend some future meeting of the board
before they can obtain satisfaction We think
not Di,.oo.n--- ,srrf,v ucIfnife concIu-
sions on subjects pertaining to the administro
ion of their Office, during the early part of the
Tear as easily as at a later period; and when
we consider that by doing this they will not on
" avoid much inconvenience to teachers, but
will ultimately benefit their own communities,
we can see no reason for any delay whatever.
Those districts that offer the best inducements
ire entitled to the best Instructors but directors
AN secure The services Of such, only by making
,nown the inducements at an early date.
There are some boards of directors whose ar
are satisfactory and convenient to
Ill, but our lot has hitherto been in those dis
ricts in which we think directors could improve
very much in the administration of school af-
airs. B.V.

Since on my jaunt from old Bedford,
have been, like chameleon, living on mountain
air, until have really grown quite rotund; but
unlike Falstaff, ''Tis (noD grief that puffs me
out" would have written to the school COL
umn long ago, but have been so busy attend
ing 'qultings," ''sugar- -strrings-of,," and other
social gatherings that require the constant at
tention of a gentleman, that have, previous to
this, found little time to write. have not had
the pleasure of visiting any of the schools of
this county since my arrival here, although
have made some interesting calls on the female
teachers who were engaged (n teaching) last
Winter, and if the schools were half as bright
as the teachers are, old Bedford can't hold a cam
die to them. The scenery in this county is fno
consisting chiefly of what might be called
mixed lands-that is, conglomeration of rock,
saw-logs, ''spring-hotses" and red barns, slight
ly diversified by what, in Bedford, would be
called perpendicular real estate" with, now and
then, a cow pasture looming up in the dim dis
tance like the smoke from farm house chimney
at sdinncr-time." And, then, there are some
tall pine trees up here--a man must lie on his
back in order to see the tops of them without
breaking his neck; and the butter is glorious!!
(excusc my cmotions.) This IS a great country,
and it '.is" not all fenced in yet. Although
have not visited any of the schools, I have seen
some of the finest school-houses in the State.
Prof. Stutzman calls them the monuments of
wisdom mounted on the hills Of science. Apro-
pos, he also says he will be with you at your

"NOT DEEP ENOUGH FOR PhAyING."-A good
story is told of two raftsmen, which ovcurrrd
during the late big blow on the Mississippi, at
which time so many RATS were swampcd, and
steamboats, lost their sky riggings. A raft was
just emerging from Lake Pepin as the squall
came In an instant the raft was pitching and
wrthing as if suddenly dropped into Charybdis,
while the waves broke over with tremendous
,iproar, and expecting instant destruction, the
rattsman dropped on his knees and commenced
praying with vim equal to the emergency
Happening to open his eyes an instant, he OBJ
served his companion, not engaged in prayers,
but pushing a pole into the water at the side of
the raft.
''What's that yer dom, NTike!" said he; ''get
down on yer knees now for there isn't mint
between us and purgatory!"
''Bc aisy, Pat" said the other, as he coolly
continued to punch with his pole, ''bc aisy, nowl
'chafs the use Of ruyn 'chen teller can tech bot
tom trih a pole?'
Mike is pretty good specimen of a large
class of christians who prefer to omit prayer SO
long as they can "tech bottom"

SENATOR McDOUGAL,

Senator McDougal, of California, made a
powerful speech in the Senate, d few days ago
against the arbitrary arrest and confinement of
citizens of the loyal States, without any char
ges being made against the victim or trial gram
ted him. Ills speech was an unanswerable eff
ort in behalf of the supremacy of the law and
the sancitity of the Constitution, and glor-
ious yindication of the rights Of the citizen.
Senator McDougal was elected as Douglas
Democrat from California, by combination
of republicans and q portion of the demo-
cratic party. Having byhis late able speech
condemned the encroachments made by those in
powerupon the constitutional rights of the people,
we expect to see him denounced by Forney as n
Breckinridge Democrat and traduced by the
whole Republican Press as q sympathiser with
treason, Senator Wade, abotionist from Ohio,
denounced him as such in the Senate the other
day, and we soon expect all the small fry politi-
clans like Forncy, soon to follow suit Yet this
same Senator McDougal, when they believed he
could be used by themfo the purpose of defeating
the Democratic party, was a paragon of patri-
otism in the eyes of the same Republican lead
crs.-By his recent speech, the Senator from
California has shown that the principles of
Democracy still glow in his heart and that
all differences between Democrats have sunk in
to oblivion in their ardor for the Constitution,
and their effort for the salvation of tho country.
IIc has endcared himself to the lovers of con-
stitutional liberty throughout the land Let us
strive together for THE UNION, THE CoNsTITU-
TIoN AND TIE DEMOCRATIC PARTY FOR THE SAKE
OF TIE UNIoN and all will yet be we'll

Col. AsIIBY.-A correspondent of the New
York World writing from Woodstock, Va, gives
the following sketch of the confederate Colonel
Ashby: 3i+
Ashby--no disciplined soldier, pursuing no
regular line of warfare, which is n part of a
plan comprising different branches of service,
infantry, cavalry and artillcry-has displayed a
skill and genius in the management of his men
which have made him in the estimation of this
division no ordinary commander. He has pro-
tcctcd the retreat of jackson most admirably,
and while, at one time, our advance were close
upon him, hcrodc upthe hill before them as qui-
city as any peaceful farmer on market day.
He is great horseman, and always has been;
and through these mountains and forests Of the
Shenandoah has ranged on horseback in the hunt
of the fox and deer, and has often distinguished
himself in the tournament, which is among the
still cherished practices of tho Virginans, and
I am told that while riding at the top of his
speed he will throw his lance upon the ground
and seize it again in passing with the utmost
dcxterty.
Ills horse, too is disciplined like his master,
to the accomplishment of the most wonderful
feats lie will drop to the ground in a flash,
at the wish of his rider, and rise again as sud-
denly, bound through the woods like a deer, a.
voiling trees and branches, clearing every OBJ
stacle, jumping fences and bitches with perfect
ease All who know him say he is man of
modest, quiet demcanor; silent man, who
keeps his own counsel, and is held in the most
fabulous regard by his men and inferior officers,
He is said to be Christian and a man of emi-
nent piety, as is also his general, the Stonewall
Jackson. Imust frankly express the degree of
respect which I have been led to entert in for
the character of this non-committal, dark, in
scrutable Col Ashby.

Our AR,n.-A correspondent in the Utica
Herald, writing of the length of our army of
600, 900 men, says they would form line, if
standing in single file, two feet apart, 227 miles.
Placing them in double rank, there would be a
line extending ll3a miles, and It would require
over eleven hours for the Commander-in-Chief
to review them on ''horseback," riding at the
rate of ten miles an hour. When formed into
a hollow square, the enclosure would contain
over Al ,52Sacrcs. Place them in a solid square,
allowing four square feet to each man, they
would cover 220 acres.
