Union School Exhibition.


Junior Glass, Union School, which
took place at ALEsHiRE's Hall, last
Friday evening. The spacious Hall
was filed to overfowing with the
children, their parents and friends
To Judge from the close attention
given to the exercises, and from the
frequent bursts of applause that fol
lowed each performance, botl
speakers and musicians, the visitor,
were both interested and pleased
The music, presided over by Mr.
JAMES NEAL, was beyond complaint
while the other exercises, by the
students, must have been most graft
flying to both teachers and specta
tors. Every one "acted well his
part" and we need not, therefore
particularize. We simply annex the
programme, to-wit:

Just before the benediction, g
very pleasant feature of the evening
occurred, which was not down in the
programme, and which took by sur.
prise two persons, at least, and prob
ably most of the spectators. 1t wa;
the presentation of silver fruit
basket and knife to Prof. CALDWELL
the Superintendent, and the Gloves
and Heroines of the Poets" richly
embellished book, to Miss EMMA C
HARTwELL, teacher in the High
School. The presentations were
made, in few well chosen and ap,
propriate remarks, in the former
case bys Miss HANNAH U. MAxoN
one of the teachers in the Union
School, and in the latter by Miss
GARNET RICHARDSON, one of the pu-
pills. The donors had kept theil
counsel well, and the result was q
complete surprise; but very pleas
ant and satisfactory one to the audi.
ence, at least.
Thus closed another year of our
public schools. Year by year they
have increased in interest and use
fulness, until now they stand second
to none in Southern Ohio. Our cit
izens are justly proud of them, and
feel, that to the exertions of our
Board of Education, and to the efforts
of Prof. CALDWELL, and his able
corps of assistants, we are indebted
for their great efficiency.
1t gives US pleasure to state that
the Board has engaged the services
of Prof. CALDWELL for another year
