MORAL OBLIGATION.

MORAL EDUCATION.
ines addressed to the Lyon county Teacher
Institute, 9th mo. 11th, 1864.
Tho seldom in poetic strains
Has the great work been told,
OF training youths expanding powers
Their beauties to unfold,
Yet of mans varied tolls no one
Should claim such finished art,
As should the care of infant minds
The culture of the heart.
To cause the opening flowers OF spring
In rarer tints to shine
To train to more prolific yield
The purple clustered vine;
To send the winged lightnings forth
As heralds to mankind,
And bind to labor's forming wheel
The water and the wind,
Is noble work; and those who toll
Should reap rich reward.
To all whose labors bless the world
Fit praises we accord.
But who shall claim the art divine
'Mongst all of humankind,
To form the immortal powers Of youth
To deal with deathless mind.
A kindly smile may give the power
To soar on bird-like wing;
A frown may bind the young heart down
And pain with serpent sting.
On childhood's page each line we trace
May live when worlds shall fall
Each word or thought may Vibrate still
When stars and suns grow pale.
To you, when aided from above,
A power divine is given
The power to bind the world in love,
And train the soul for heaven,
Let US renew our labors then,
In this expanding field; .a
Each good seed sown q thousand fold
At harvest time will yield.
Then, o. our Father, thou whose love
To little ones was given,
Who took them in thine arms and said,
"Of such ns these is heaven"
Be with US in this cause of thine,
And lead us more to know
That blessings from thy hand alone
Can make the good work grow.
And that oil they who lead to thee
Those little ones of thine,
In heavens bright armament If love
As changeless stars shall shine.

WAR HAS ITS TRIUMPHs, So HAS PEACE.
While the armies of tie Union were win
ming brilliant victories, the Chemical Sale
rotus was enjoying series of uninterrupt-
ed triumPhs over the popular aversion to
all saleratus, because the common kinds in
use were found to be destructive. Science
had demonstrated that the Chemical SaLera-
EHS was not only pure in it's nature, but
wonderful in its effects, producing better
bread and biscuit than any other kind OF

universally censured among the soldiers,
