A Pretty QuaKeress Creates an Exci,e-
from the Columbus Ohio, Journal.I

From the Columbus (Ohio) JournalI
A beautiful young lady, dressed as o
Quakeress. entered the office OF prom I
inent railroad official, yesterday and
asked for pass over the road good for
one month. She stated that she was en-
gagged in missionary work, and that she
expected to do much good. The .pecu
liar character Of the work was explain
ed, and, asking the young lady to be
seated, the gentleman proceeded to fill
out pass as requested. This was hand
ed her, but, stating that she could not
read, she handed it back. The gentle
man read aloud the pass-allowing her
to 60 to any point on the whole line OF
road at any time within one month from
date. The lady to his surprise, dropped
on her knees and prayed earnestly for
some minutes. The act did not surprise
him as much as her sweet tone and beau
tiful language. Most beautiful thoughts
were expressed in well chosen words,
and the commissioned to yield to the
spirit of the moment. In her own Ian :
guage the spirit moved her to thank God
for putting SO good man in such a
place. She said she had been an idle
frivolous girl, disposed to ignore the
teachings and customs Of her people, but
that, unedacated as she was, she had de-
voted herself to good work, and had
accomplished much and hoped to &C
complish much more.
This is the incident as it occurred.
Be the woman whom she may, she pro-
duced quite an excitement in places
where generally there is too much bus
mess for anything in the romantic way.

How to Set Cabbage Plants.

Z Z
Most farmers wait for a rain before
setting. This Il consider useless, as
som etimes, it makes the setting out so
late they will not head before winter
sets in. Again, it is more pleasant work
ing when the ground is dry; the soil
does not pack or become lumpy. My
plan is as follows, and have always
had excellent success:
g As soon as your plants are large
enough. take up dozen or SO at a time,
and take to the place you wish to set
Have dish OF water with you'll pre-
fer rain water--make hole and put in
your plant, fill in the dirt and press it
firmly around the roots until the hole is
nearly full. Then turn in half a gill or
SO of water and haul fresh dirt upon
that, but do not press it. This will pre-
vent the ground from baking, and the
plant is almost sure to grow.
Last summer I raised a good crop in
this way, although set during the hot,
dry weather, while those who waited for
rain had none.
If the above dire ctions are followed,
the plants will need no more watering.
Hoe as often as twice week until they
are large enough to pretty well cover
the ground, and you will not fail to have
plenty of cabbage.--Rurol New Yorker.

PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
asuperihtendents VS.. Trustees.


We are sorry to see the tate Superin
tendent Of our Public Schools, rusiG
ing Into print and inyidiously selecting
one of the Trustees Of orr Schools in the
city, for the purpose of venting pent-
up ill-feeling against him thatohasp bur-
dened his bosom for some time, when,
in the case he refers to the Trustees
were NITiin disposing Of it in the
manner complained of by him. From
careful inquiry, we find the following
are the facts as they occurred Aio"
As the State Sabbath School Conyen-
ton was called for last week, the Super
intendent met the Board at it's meeting
on the 26th Of May, and sug gested the
propriety Of closing up the Schools, SO
so as to give the Teachers an opportu-
nifty Of attending the Convention--thus
cutting off one week Of their teaching
services. With this understanding, the
Superintendent was directed to make
out tho payroll, and present it for Ii
quotation. . But judge of the surprise of
the Board, when the pay roll was pre-
sented, to discover that the Superintend-
ent had preferred a claim for himself
and each Teacher for the entire month
thus showing the quality of the Justice
he pirates about, as being asked for by
him and them! Demanding full pay for
the week they proposed not to give any
service for-amounting to the comfort
able sum, in the aggregate, of about
$500! A meeting Of the teachers, on
tho 18th inst, was then called by the
Board, and Justice was done to each
teacher, and to the public interest, by
giving them the choice of either doing
one weeks more service, and receive q
months pay, or take three week 8 pay
and 60 to the Convention. The teach>
ers were thus consulted, and they were
all paid in accordance with their choice.
We think the Board acted honestly, pru-
IDENTIFY and promptly in the premises,
and deserve as they will receive the full
appreciation of their constituents for the
course they. have pursued.
Our late Superintendent miscalculates
the effect of his fusilade Oh as old and
well known a citizen as the one he Sc.
lected from the Board to demolish. Put
ty pellets, blown from glass tube,
would batter down the Warner building
quite as soon as his futile attempt to do
an injury to one who has been proved to
be not only honest and capable in the
position he has occupied, but scrupu
lousy faithful to the best interests of
the schools and the people in dispensing
even-handed ...justice' to all A
The Superintendent'a article evinces
more of personal vindictiyeness and ha-
tired towards one of the members of thu
Board, than any degree of good, practi-
cal common sense, and true knowledge.
Of the facts surrounding the case, and
the monstrons distortion of them in his
article, will convince any unprecedented
reader that the Superintendent philos
ophy,. that .chips never fall upwards is
untrue in this instance, for they fly
'np,cards' and into his oacn face!

PUNCH DURING THE REBELLIoN.-If any one wishes
to obtain correct idea of the state of public fee ling
in Great Britain during our late civil war, let him
turn to the contemporaneous pages of Punch. The
speeches of prominent statesmen and the editorials
of the leading newspapers may to day be dscai med
the utterances o! party prejudice the illusions
of exasperated and privileged class. But Punch
is nothing if not the mirror held up to public opinion

They Won't Trouble You Long.

Children grow up-nothing on earth grows so fast
as children. 1t was but yesterday, and that lad was
playing with tops, buoyant boy. He is man, and
r gone now. There is childhood for him or
for us. Life has claimed him. When a beginning is
made it is ike travelling stocking stitch by stitch
gives way till all is gone. The house has not child
3 in it-there is no noise in the hall-boys lush
ing pe-mell; it is very orderly now. There no
more skates, sleds, balls or strings left scattered
about. Things are neat enough now. There is
delay for sleepy folks ; there is longer any task
before you lie down, of looking after children and
tucking up the bed clothes. There no disputes
to settle, nobody to get off to school, complaint
2 opportunities for impossible things, rips to
mend fingers to tie up, faces to be washed, or
collars to be arranged. There never such peace
in the house.! 1t would sound like music to have
some feet clatter down the front stairs Oh, for
some children's noise! What used to all us, that
were hushng their loud laugh, checking their noisy
frolc, and reprovng their slamming and banging the
doors axe S~*
3 We wish our neighbours would only lend an
chin two, to make little noise on these premises.
A home without children 1t is like lantern and
no candle garden an n flowers; brook and no
water gurgling and gushing through its channel
Weswant to be tried, to be vexei, to be run over ;
to hear children at work with all its varieties. Du
ring the secular days this is enough marked But it
is the Sabbath that puts homes to the proof.
That is the Christian family day. The intervals of
public worship spaces of peace. The family
seems made up that day. The children at home,
and you can lay your hands upon their heads. They
seem to recognize the greater and lesser love-to
God and to friends. The house is peaceful, but not
still. There is low and melodous thrill of children
In it,. But the Sabbath comes too still There
is silence that echoes in the ear. There is too
much at the table. too much at the hearth. The
bedrooms world too orderly. There is too
much leisure and too little care. Alas what means
these things? Is somebody growing old !? Are
these signs and tokens !? Is life waning Fl Henry

The City License.

Mr. Palmer. introduced an ordinance
at the last Council meeting, fixing the
price Ct the city license for the sale of
Intoxicating liquors at $1,000. Now,
this is a matter attracting much atten-
ton. For US, we can see no practicable
benefit arising from sue h a license. If
the object is prohibition, why not refuse
at once, the grating of license Such
law as proposed, would not reduce the
quantity of liquor consumed, but merely
the number ~ of retail establishments.
Beer gardens, etc, would be the result,
and great resort. The State law gives
them the privilege Of selling beer and IL
uuor by the quart, and what man buys,
his object, generally. is to consume. If
this ordinance passes and is put in force,
in our opinion, nearly the same number
of saloons will continue, selling beer
and liquor by the quart. If we could
see any benefit arising from such an or
dinance we would heartily favor it, for
we are always opposed to licensing great
and common evils, and in favor of re-
ducing them as fast as possible; but in
q way that will prove the most good to
the greatest number. sG 50
We suggest whether the Religious
revival that has been and is yet prevail
ing so remarkably in our beloved city,
is not producing more good in drying
up intemperance, than this $1,000 plan
of our friend Palm er1ceuld possibly do?
Take away from the liquor saloons their
customers by reforming them--diminish
and dry up the liquor sellers profits by
this mode, and you force him to abandon
an Improbable business and engage in
other employment. Think of this.
