on the lab0rS OF q few or the Ieacn-
ers Of this county and Racine. Prof.
G. S. Albee, Of the High School at
Racine, SO well known to the teach
ers Of this county, is hard at work
as usual, in endeavoring to elevate
the standard of not only'his own i'm |
mediate department, but also all the
schools in the city, of which there are
quite number, and Of which he is
really the head. There are at pres
ent 95 in attendance at the High
School, and by the order and quiet
which prevailed, we judge that he
still maintains his former reputation
as first class disciplinarian. We"
were pleased with the intensely prac
icaE spirit which pervaded the exer-
cises. One requirement is that eve
ry pupil shall prepare written
summary, weekly, Of the foreign and
domestic news for that week This
leads to careful and diligent exam
ination of the daily papers, and at
fords valuable exercise in compost
ton, besides creating live interest
in public affairs, The exercise in
bookkeeping, embracing nearly the
entire school, was decidedly practical.
The transactions to be recorded, are
engaged in by the pupils, with bust
ness firms from their own number,
and at prices which must correspond
with current prices Of the trade.
This renders it highly interesting
and gives to the pupils an immediate
application Of the principles studied.
Our visit was so briof fiat it is
impossible to do justice to the hume
rous merits Of the school in this des~
cription Perhaps some future OBJ
servation may enable us to speak Of
it more fully, The high reputation
Of Prof. Albee as teacher, is well
known here. A good and thorough
school IS a certain result wherever
he is employed.
We had the pleasure Of visiting

are changed. he fault IS not neces
sarily in the system, but rests with
those who control the schools. If
an energetic and thorough teacher
were continued in the same school
for one, two or three years in success
sion, we are confident that double
the progress would result, in compar-
son with that usually made. By
the time a school is thoroughly en-
gagged under the present prevailing
custom, the term is drawing to a.
close, and the next teacher COM
Imences the same process again, and
the same result follows. 1t requires
some time for teacher to Become
fully acquainted with his pupils,
their pecularities 'temperaients' and
the like, so as to know just how To-
adapt himself and his instruction to-
each individual case when necessary
and it is generally conceded among
educators that the last month of a
4 snorr term is OF double the value of
the first Again, pupils will not
feel that depth Of interest in their
studies that they otherwise might,
when constant changing is in vogue.
Parents, too, lose interest in school
4 matters, and often from this cause,
permit their children to remain away
for months together. NM
This occasions a change@of classes
each term, and the introduction of
new ones, producing that other
great drawback to q schools progress,
IA superabundance of classes.
Thus the pupil drops from one grade
to another each time he commences
school, soon losing the little INTEREST
, he once fell. and school instead If
being pleasure, drags heavily. But
it is unnecessary to multiply reasons
why such constant changing IS detri-

ThEIAhED 81 DR. q. III. ia CKSON
PHILADELPHIA, PA.
Thirty-fve years since they were first intro
duced into this country from Germany, during
which time they have undoubtedly performed
more cures and benefited suffering humanity 10
greater extent than any other remedies known
to the public
These remedies will efiectualy cure Liver Com
plant, Jaundice, Dyspepsia, Chronic or Nervous
Debility, Chronic DiarrhUa Diseases of the Kid
neys, and all Diseases arising from disordered
Liver Stomach or Intcstines
DEBILITY.
Resulting from any cause whatever; prostra-
ton of the system, induced by severe labor, hard
ships, exposure, fevers &C.
There is no medicine eXtant equal to these REM
edies in such cases. A tone and vgor is imnart
ed to the whole system, the appetite is strength
ened, food is enjoyed, the stomach digests pro-
perly, the blood is purified the compleyion bo-
comes sound and healthy, the yellow tinpe is
eradicated from the eyes a bloom is given 10 the
cheeks, and the weak and nervous invalid he
comes strong and healthy being.
Persons advanced in life and feeling the hand of
time weighing heavily upon them, with all its
attendant ills will find in the use of this Biters
or the Tonic an elixir that will nstill new lif
INTO their veins, restore in a measure the enoroy
and ardor of more youthful days, build up their
shrunken forms, and give health and happiness
to their remaining years.
NOTICE.
Its we'll established fact that fully one-half of
the female portion Of our population are seldom
in the enjoyment of good health or, TO use their
own expression, '.never feel we'll" They are
langnd devoid of all energy extremely nervous
and have no appetite.
TO this class of persons the Bitters, or the
Tonic is especially recommended
WEAK AND DELICATE CHILDREN
Are made strong by the use of either of these
remedies. They will cure every case of Maras-
mus without fail

A young man in California, whose
friends had ceased to correspond with him,
woke up their interest by sending letters
to business men in his native place, in
quiring the price of a tolerable sized farm.
Seven affectionate letters came from his
friends by return post, and two or three a
day have come ever since, including one
from an old (and cold) sweetheart.
