under the mistaken idea that any kind
of teacher would do for 'ssmall and
back ward school," No system could
be more destructive or tend more to
impede the progress of our public
schools. l would, therefore, urg, up
on school officers the high necessity Of
your securing the services Of good and
efficient teachers in all cases, at your
earliest possible convenience, and have
them in readiness for your schools to
commence Immediately after the in
spectlon. BY SO doing you will not be
disappointed in your efforts for good
teacher.
| would also call your attention to
your duty in determining what school
books shall be used and recommend a
uniformity Of books in every district.
and especially would / have every
scholar furnished with all books and
apparatus necessary for his or her rap
id advancement. And, finally, would
have you understand that it is not on
ly your province, but your imperative
duty as school boards, to visst your
schools regularly, as Town Superin-
tendents were required to do under the
old law.
Nor should parents generally be
more exempt from duty in this respect.
AS You prize the present and future
prosperity and happiness Of your chill
dren, forget not the school room. As
you would have them ardent lovers of
good order, good society and good gov
ernment, 60 with them to the school
room. For how few Of those who pay
taxes for support Of schools know
what kind of teaching they pay for
This is not your method of procedure
in other matters. You do not furnish
your hired men with tools and send
them into your fields and your shops
to work six months without going near
them. You do not employ men to at
tend to your horses and cattle during
a winter without going to see that your
property is we'll cared for. There are
but few persons to whom you would
be willing to entrust such interests
more than week except under your
Immediate inspection. But when the
mind, the immortal part of man, is to
le trained, it matters not into whose
hands it is entrusted, providing always
1t does not cost too many paltry dol
lars and coppers. Such false system
should at once he discarded.
| wish you also to see to it that your
children attend, school regularly. No
scholar can progress in his studies if
he only attends school when there are
no blue-berrics or black berries to be
picked, no parties to attend, no hunt
ing or fishing to be done. I find too
much carelessnesS in reference to this
matter generally. Parents, see to it
that these defects are rcmeded at
once. The scholars are yours, the
teachers are yours, the school is yours;
and what l ask is for you sad yours
And it is in vain tor ne to attempt to
create any new interest in onr schools
unless | have your hearty eo-opera

DISFRANCHIsING THE REBELS. Ono

DISTINGUISHING bill proposed by Mr..

Office who has taken up arms against
the United States al5er hauuag taken

The bill is intended to apply to all for
mer senator's, representatives., federal

the rebellion. The constitution Of the
United States, and the constitutions Of
all the states, prescribe an oath Of f.
deity to the former instrument, and
hence every rebel who has held an Of
flee is porjured before God and man.
This ought to be reason enough for
disfranchising the rebel leaders who
have been office holders previous to
the rebellion. We suppose the Val

as it will exclude their friends, from
congress when the war is over. by
all means let this act be passed, IS it
