BINGEN ON THE RHINE.

A soldier Of the Legion lay dying in Algiers
There was lack of womnn's nursing, there was
dearth of woman's tears;
But a comrade stood beside him while his life
~t~ blood ebbed away,
And bent with plying glances to hear what
he might say.
The dying soldier faltered as he took that
comrades hand,
And he said never more shall see my
own, my native land;
Take a message and token to some distant
friends of mine,
For was born at Bingen-at Bingen on the
Rhine.

meet and crowd around,
To hear my mourniul story in the pleasant
L vineyard ground, tr
That We fought the battle bravoly, and when
Full many a corpse lay CHASTITY pale beneath

And. midst dead and dying were some grown
old in wars,
The death-wound on their gallant breasts the

PUBLIC ScHooLs-To PARENTS.
At a meeting of the Board of Educa
ton the following resolution was
unanimously adopted:
ResolUed. That the Superintendent
admit the children to the Second
Primary Schools who shall attain to
the age of six years before the 18th of
June; provided that application shall
be made to the Superintendent, for
their admission, on or before Mon
day. the 21st of February, and at no
other time; and that this rule be pub
lished in the city papers, and notice
given of it in the schools. feb7-Iw
The Evansville journal., 1870-02-08

SCHOOL NoTICE.-We would direct
attention to the construction put
upon the school law in relation to the
admission of children under six years
of age, by the Board of School Trus-
tees. The reason Of this arrange
ment is to afford to those who will
enter their children in the lower or
Second Primary Schools, an oppor-
tunity to do so in body. that better
organization of this grade of the
schools may be effected at once.
When children are entered irregu-
larly, through the half year, they
cannot be properly classified; but if
they come in together, in body. it
will obviate many of the inconveni-
ences of the former arrangement.
The Superintendent is at his Office
each Monday morning, for the ad-
mission of children to the schools.
The Office is in the High School
building.
