law suits and school-house rows there
have been of late years, just because
some teachers attempted to have proper
,xder and discipline in their schools
How many times have we heard teachers
remark, that they could manage their
schools well enough if it were not for the
parents but instead of support they gave
them trouble continually.
A teacher in neighboring town the
present winter-a young man OF gooa
abilities. education and Christian integrl-
ty-has received untold annoyance and
opposition from the parents in his districts
and all because he attempted to have
some discipline in his school, and devo-
tions in the morning. Some parents went
so far as to take their children out OF
school, and one of them went to the teach
err and said to him if he would give up
the school and leave they would pay his
wages to the end of the term, and give
him written recommend as good teach
er. The reply of the young man was no.
BILE: ''The best recommend you can
give me is to send your children back to
school, and to sustain me in my position
-
pc tbo;r 4aaoho-p That teacher din't
leave.
Until parents can make up their minds
to give the teacher their support, and not
side with the scholars with every idle
rumor that goes through the district, child
rem will be little benefited by attending
school,

Our Rulers and our Rights.

Since the breaking out ofthe War, pub
lie attention has turned instinctively to the
examination of our form of government to
ascertain its powers, functions, and capa-
city. Strange as it may seem, there were
no books adapted to give the information
sought, and the people were compelled to
depend on the newspaper for such meagre
scraps as could be picked up from time
to time. This was very unsatisfactory,
and every intelligent person felt the want
of some manual at once reliable, concise,
and full. We believe that we have in
the work before us, book which supplies
this want. "Our Rulers and Our Rights
or the outlines of the U. S. Government !"
treats veryfully of the origin, organization
and functions of every department of the
general government, and very much per-
tanning to the several States. 1t would
take columns to describe all that the work
contains.
The power of condensation and method
show great skill in the author. The de-
sign is admirable. The plan is well car
ried out. The price is very. moderate.
1t contains over 500 pages, has four steel
engravings, and excellent large sized seals
Of the different States. Messrs. PARME-
LEE & Co.. of Philadelphia, deserve the
thanks of the whole country for publish
ing work like this, free from all political
bias, and adapted to the wants of the COM
mon people.
We predict an immense sale. Every
citizen would do well to secure copy
while they have the opportunity. 1t is
sold only by subscription.
Watch for the Agent and secure this
valuable work.

MONTREAL AND IT'S RAILWAY CONNECTIONS
THE PORTLAND CUTOFF TO LAKE ONTARIO.
"The Montrealers are becoming alarm
cd for their railway connections, seeing
that the building Of the Lamoille Valley
hallway, I. e., from Ogicnsburgh to Port
land, is sure to come about. The Mon
treal Gazette tells us that so easy route
has been found that contractors have of.
tered TO do the whole work for 1876 900
per mile, except in the most difficult part
Of the pass through the White Mountains.
The money is fast being raised; townships
which have the power offering $50, 600 to
$4,000 out Of their taxes-most Of them
being but six miles square, and farmers
putting down their names for 800 to
$500 stock--somc Of them for $1,000.
The country is alive on The subject, and
Lamoille newsdealer. [volume] (Hyde Park, Vt.) 1860-1877, 1869-02-09

a rood deal of enthusiasm is shown. This
is the road that will compete with the
Grand Trunk for Portland and Boston
traffic, and render these points independ,
emit of it to great estent. But If 1t VIII
cut off the Grand Trunk how much more
will it affect the Intercoloniai? The one
takes a short cut across the country to the
Atlantic. while the other, reckoning the
Grand Trunk as part of its general system
goes winding away to Montreal and Que
bee; then to Riviere du Loup, and thence
stretching away through the wilds of New
Brunswick, and among the scanty popula-
ton of Nova Scotia, only to reach the At
lantic at another and but little better
point. The alarm expressed by the Mon
trealers is the best evidence of the value
of the proposed road to the commercial
world, and the supreme folly of the Inter
colonial" - Canadian LOndon) Free
Press, January 10.
A correspondent IN the same issue,
writing from Montreal, under date Janu-
AIRY II, says:
THE communication by rail with Port
land is a great deal more circuitous than
it need have been, and the people of Mon
treal are now seeing that they made a
mistake in not constructing the Grand
Trunk to PortIand-the former Atlantic
and St. Lawrence Railway-in nearly an
strrction the oo,,i,, in course afn@afy
which will unite Ogdensburgh with Port
land, when the former place will compete
favorably with Montreal for portion of
the Western grain trade-there being but
little difference in the distances by rail.
To place Montreal into better position,
and to afford more rapid communication,
it is proposed to run branch from one Of
the lines leading from this city to the
south, through the county Of Mississippi,
to connect with the Portland and Rutland
Railway, shortening the distance to the
seaport very considerably. But there is
danger that the sharp Yankees will be too
fast for the less enterprising people of the
TfoVlnce OF quebec.
There is no installing the significance
of the Portland project for a direct route
west, with connections through to Lake
Ontario, and also to Ogdensburgh on
the St. Lawrence, in the State Of New
York. And what moves the anxiety of
Montreal is, that the Canada cities on
Lake Ontario, including all that portion
of Canada which is bounded on the east
and south by the Niagara river and Lake
Erie, are interested in the carrying out of
the Portland plan, since thereby they will
enjoy additional communication with the
seaboard in Maine, without making a de-
tour via Montreal, which is away north
far from all direct lines from the Atlantic
towards and to the west.
Montreal does not underrate the COM
petition with which she is menaced bv the
Portland enterprise, though the fact that
Montreal has put herself in opposition to
the New England scheme, is the very best
which could possibly be admin
istered to stimulate the friends of the new
work, and aid them to raise funds in its
behalf-Ed. Rey.]-Umited States Rail

OF the gallant Gen. James NJ. Warner.
Post Warner is growing more and more
and under this new title, and
to many soldiers an attractive one, we
hope to draw many more into this friend
ly union. There are many ties formed
amid the trials and hardships of the camp
and begotten of real admiration of one an
others manly qualities, and in no organi-
zation can those ties be SO well strength
eged and preserved as in the G. A. r.
