A CHANGE.-We, in common with cit
liens generally, regret the contemplated
departure of Mr.. Cushman, who, for the
last three years has conducted the Union
School of our village with marked success
and ability, and to the general acceptance
of its patrons. Mr.. c., we understand,
is to become the Principal of the Union
School at Muskegon Village. We truly
hope he may prove as acceptable TO our
good neighbors at Muskegon as he has
to the citizens of Grand Haven, both as
teacher and as citizen Of great moral
worth and uncompromising integrity.
We also learn with regret that Miss
Sarah Middlemist, of the primary depart
ment, also retires from the position which
she has long filed most ably ard accepta
bly, to all parties interested.
Miss Nettie G. Hubbard, kind and
faithful instructor, long and acceptably
employed in the School, will, we hope,
continue to labor for the improvement of
our little ones.

In Contemplation.

An initiatory movement is being inau-
gurated for the erection of Union School
building, Insufficient capacity to meet the
present and future wants of our village.
The trustees Of the school have held a
meetingon the subject, talked Of sites and
plans, and eventually resulting in the selec-
ton of DR.. Munroe, one Of their number,
to draw up report on the subject and
submit il for the consideration Of citizens
at the next School Meeting. A suggestion
for temporary addition to the School
House, TO accommodate the School the
intervening time, is also to be considered.
We have long advocated the necessity of
more room for the better accommodation of
the juveniles of our village, in their ardu-
Gus search for knowledge, and now as the
subject of a new building for school purpo-
ses is to be brought fairly before the peo-
pie, let it receive merited consideration,
and let us have School Building that
will do honor to our village, and stand for
ages to come a bold monument of the
wisdom and liberty of our people.

MoRGAN.-The most cheering and i'm
portant war news of the week has refer
ence to the total route of the guerrilla force
under Morgan and capture of that rob-
ber.chieftain, to the great relief of jewellers
on both sides Of the Ohio River. The
bombardment of Fort Wagner continued
to the latest advices, two sorties for its
capture having taken place which resulted
'unsuccessfully and with considerable
loss to the attacking party. There seems
to be but little doubt of the ultimate cap
ture of Charleston.

THE GOOD sAMARITANS.

In our boyhood days, when weekly
attendant at the village Sabbath-School,
no incident imprinted on the page of our
little pocket-testament elected our admi-
ration more than the dsinterested benev-
olence Of the Good Samaritan. How adj
mirably is that principle being carried out
BY the humane and benevolent in the
midst of the scenes of suffering, devasta-
ton and untold horrors that sadden the
eye and sicken the heart on taking a
glance at the CORY battle fields of this cru
81 and prolonged civil war.
Instance the Western Sanitary Com
mission land the Eastern is by no means
behind in the good work). From its
headquarters, at st. Louis, as from a
fountain almost inexhaustible, through
the benevolence of the kind-hearted, little
currents Of good are constantly flowing
toward every hospital, camp and battle
field where labors of kindness and chris
tian.hearted sympathy are needed in all
the vast district of that department. AL
ready over 100000 have been expended
for the relief of the needy, carrying JOY
and health to many a sufferer whose dull
eye, CHASTITY from suffering, with BEAM
ing radiance and an exultant God bless
you," grcets the dispenser Of good at every
bedside of suffering and want. AS an
aid to the Sanitary the Christian Com
mission is doing no less noble work.
Not only is it the dispenser Of a thousand
temporal comforts to our sick and wound
cd braves, but thousands Of tracts, tesla
ments, bibles and volumes of miscelane-
GUS reading, almost numberess, with pa
pers, periodicals, &C., by the bushel are
nut into the hands of the afflicted soldier
for his benefit, that he may while away
the tedious, painful hours in an employ
ment at once pleasing, instructive and
profitable.
How delightfully."- to the benevolent
minded, amid all the ayarice and sordid
ambition for wealth that enchains the
multitude. shines forth such noble hearted
benevolence Of the comparatively few gen.
erous ones of the prcfessed loyal popula-
ton of the professedly loyal States. Such
acts constitute the bright features, if such
there can be, amid all the soul-harrowing
scenes OF blood and devastation that mark
the footsteps of the war-demon in the fair
est portions of our land.
In view of the appeal that comes to
us hourly from the wounded and dying
from every hospital and battle field let
us not forget that our brother man is the
sufferer, and that he endures untold pri-
vations and hardships, and even death
ITSELF that once glorious and happy
country may be preserved. Can we not
afford in the circumstances of the case to
be benevolent and contribute some gift,
though small it be, to all enterprises la
den with good to the soldier! 1t is de-
served. 1t is duty to grant il. The deed
will be blessed and the recipient will bless
it. The truly philauthropic everywhere
will bless it. God will bless it, and we
shall by no means be impoverished by the
gift.

LIBEL.-One of the most novel and ex-
citing civil cases that has ever been insti-
tuted in the Circuit Court of our county
came to trial last week. John Finite, a
Hollanderby birth, aged forty-seven years,
and bachelor of course, prosecuted the
trustees Of tho Union School Of our vii
lage for libel, alleged to have been infict-
ed in tho course of proceedings that re-
suited in his expulsion from The school,
some three years ago, while attending as
pupil, on charge Of improper language
to the teacher, during school hours, for
which he refused to apologize. The case,
after having been once submitted to a ju-
ry, who disagreed on verdict, and after
several adjournments, commenced again
and verdict of "No cause of action {"
was finally reached, TO the great disap-
pointment and loss OF the aggrieved party.
The costs 10 him we are told amount to
hundreds of dollars-a sum nearly suffi-
Gent to have given him college educa-
ton. Mr.. F., il is rumored, bravely con-
templates prosecuting now for illegal ex-
pulsion from school. He has had taste
of litigation and seems to like it. John
evidently don't mean to turn his face
backward.
