How the Deserters Escaped
-FOUR O'CLOClx. r. Il.

New YoRk, Sept. ga gentleman Just ar.
rived from Norris Island states that few days
before he len seven deserters arrived from Sul.
livan's Island.
Their story is, that after the blowing up Of
the magazine Of Moultrie, and fully expecting
a continuance Of the shelling the following
day, the rebels made preparations for the re-
moval Of their best gups, with the Intention of
vacsting the Island, but finding the next morn
ing that the shelllng was not renewed they con.
cluded 70 walt little longer.
The deserters reached Morris Island under
the following circumstances Several ofacers
belonging TO the garrison Of Moultrie, who had
gone out yachting, went ashore at some point
on the bay, leaving the yacht 10 charge Of those
seven soldiers, two of whom acted as guard.
As soon ss the shore party were far enough
away, the soldiers, guard and all, formed q
plan for placing themselves under the Starr
and Stripes, and reached our camp 10 safety
with the yacht.

SCHOOL ACCOMMODATIONS.
IEru.ual,atsd


As, In speaking Of the advantages Of the
Union School plan, we have not attempted TO
enumerate all OF them, so we may not now be
expected TO particularize all which may be con-
sidered disadvantages. In fact, as we have been
trying to seek out and present the most premi.
nent disadvantages Of the Union School plan,
we have found II difficult 10 fx upon any dis
advantages which do not, more or less,
belong to . single school system, or TO any
school system. In fact, there is no scheme
or plan Of education for the people which
would not be liable, more or less, to OBJ
joctions and TO imperfections, and which would
not find opponents; but opposition Is not dimdys
acisdom, or a mark Of risdon,; neither are i'm
perfections and objections Away insurmounta-
BILE. Men oppose certain plans and PROPOSE
tions sometimes because they think 1t has the
appearance Of wisdom Or "smartncss " on their
part; sometimes because they do not under
stand the plan; but oftener, perhaps, because
they do not happen 10 have the honor Of pro-
posing the plan, and are unwilling (dog in the
mangcr like) that any one else should have II.
One of the disadvantages frequently urged
against large or Union Schools, and In fact al
most the only ono which has any peculiar ap-
plication, is, that the location of s-ch schools
must be such as to pros cit many from attend
Ing on account OF the long distance winch must
be Travelled over In order to attend them; SO that
very many young and delicate children are vir-
tually deprived OF privilege which ought TO be
equally open to all. But to allow this objec-
ton to bear upon Union Schools exclusively,
Is not just; for no school can be SO located as
to offer tqual privileges 10 all, far as location
is concerned. Besides, every Union School
system Is, or should be, so organized as to fur
nish primary school buildings in all necessary
, aaIIu convenient localities, so that the Union
School may become the school for the older and
more advanced scholars, who will be able to
travel the necessary distances without any un.
reasonable exposure or hardship. As to imogi.
nary disadvantages, aud those which are com.
mon TO all schools of every size, We do not
think II will be profitable or necessary to give
them ful ther notice.
There are persons who say that scholars in
| large Union Schools cannot receive the ncces.
sary personal attention which they can in small
or single schools but experience has shown
that In well graded and we'll regulated Union
School each pupil gets more Of that personal
attention which is needed than he can get in q
single school, with proportionatc number OF
scholars. On the whole, we conclude that tht
Union School plan meets with no disddpdnt ge,
which are worthy of special consideration.

longing to the person who has the monopoly
OF furnishing the Army Of the Potomac with
