CoLoRED School OF ELKToN. The
conclusion of the first nine weeks of the
colored school established at Elkton was
had on Friday of last week, and attended by
Mr.. f. A. Ellis, President of the Public
School Board of this county, and several
other gentlemen and ladies of the town.
The school is taught by colored teacher,
who was educated in Massachusetts,. The
pupils have made rapid progress in the short
space of nine weeks, and Mr.. Ellis does not
hesitate to pronounce the system and order
maintained in this school among the very
best in the county, and the teacher one of
the most competent that has come under his
notice.

The life of John Newton is but the history
of a series of marvellous deliyerances. AS
youth, he had agreed to accompany some
friends on board of man-of-war. He ar
rived too late; the boat in which his friends
had gone was capslzed, and all its occupants
drowned. On another occasion, when tide
surveyor in the port of Liverpool, some
business had detained him, so that he came
to his boat much later than usual, to the
great surprise of those who were in the
habit of observing his then undertaking
punctuality. lie went out in the boat as
heretofore to inspect ship, which blew up
before he reached her Had he left the
shore "A few minutes sooner he must have
persisted with the rest on board.

ONE PAIR OF sTOcKINGs.

An old woman sat by her bright iireside,
swaying thoughtfully to and fro,
In an ancient chair whose creaky craw
Told tale of long ago;
While down by her side, ON the kitchen
floor,
Stood basket of worsied balls-a score.
Then she spoke of the time when the bas-
ket there
Was filed to the very brim,
And now there remained of the goodly pile
But n single pair-for him.
Then wonder not at the dimmed eye-sight,
There's but one pair of stockings to mend
tonight
For each empty nook in the basket old,
By the hearth there's an empty seat;
And miss the shadows from off the wall,
And the patter of many feet;
'Ta for that that tear gathered over my
sight
Al the one pair of stockings to mend to-
night.
'Tis said that far through the forest wild,
And over the mountains bold,
Was land whoes rivers and darkening
caves
Were gemmed with the rarest gold;
Then my first-born turned from the oaken
door,
And knew the shadows were only four.
Another went forth on the foaming waves
And diminished the basket store
But his feet grew cold-so weary and cold
They'll never be warm any more
And this nook in it's emptiness seemeth to
me
To give forth no voice but the moan OF the
sea.
Two others have gone towards the setting
sun,
And made them a home in its light,
And fairy fingers have taken their share
To mend by the fireside bright;
Some other basket their garments fill,
But mine! oh, mine is empty still.
Another-the dearest, the fairest, the best
Was taken by angels away,
And clad in garments that waxeth not DID,
In land of continual day;
OH wonder no more at the dimmed eye
