School Picnic.

On July 9th the common schools of Lib
erty township met for the purpose of enjoy
ing short season Of pleasure by means OF
a social picnic. The schools met in a
beautiful grove opposite the school house,
in Sub District No. of the aforesaid town.
ship. The schools were called to order at
about o'clock, and after piece sung by
the choir, entitled The Forest Festival, the
Rev. J. G. Kepford lead in fervent prayer
to Him who heareth the ravens cry. After
a second piece by the choir. the pupils Of
Sub District No. | stepped upon the plat.
form, keeping time to excellent martial
music by the Winthrop band, This school
bore banner with the motto "Free Schools
the Safeguard of Liberty" We listened to
several declarations and recitations by pu-
pills in this school, in which each seemed to
vie with the other in the clearness Of enun-
citation and force OF expression. The teach
er reported an enrolment OF 38, and an av.
erage attendance of Is. Department good.
The pupils of this school gave place to the
rupils OF Sub.District No. 2, leaving an i'm
preston upon the minds of the listeners
that the teacher in Sub District No. was
doing good work which was thoroughly
appreciated BY her pupils.
The pupils of Sub District No. 2 carried
a fine banner upon which we found the
motto, "Learnir & is our Youthful Aim"
This teacher reported an enrolment of "a,
and an average attendance Of Is. Deport-
ment good. No. not tardy, 6. After a good
display of elocutionary talent, the school
departed, and was succeeded by the pupils
of Sub-District No. 3, headed by their
teacher, and followed by their banner, upon
which was inscribed this motto, "knowl-
edge is Power" and from the degree of
power displayed by many of the pupils in
their various efforts, it was generally con-
ceded that there must be good degree Of
knowledge displayed by their tutor and pa
rents. Teacher reported an enrolment OF

pertinent good.
District No. 3 was followed by No. 4,

The exercises of this school were certainly
punctually and faithfully rendered. The
teacher reported an enrolment of 80, and
an average of %. She did not report upon
department, but we all inferred from what
we saw that it must have been good.
The proceedings were here interrupted
by the announcement Of the President that
we would now adjourn for dinner. In
very few minutes both teachers, parents
and pupils might have been seen appropri-
ating to their individual wants such viands
as only the 4th of July, School Picnics,

From tho New York Evening Post.

From tho Now York Evening Post
A gener alton ago Victor Hugo
wrote book on the Rhine, in which,
besides giving the most fascinating
and poetic of all descriptions of that
famous stream, he cried out. "France
take back the Rhine" as he stood at
the tomb of Hoche, who. was buried
OH the shores of that river, and
whose grave is to this day pointed
out to the curious tourist.
Napoleon. the bitter enemy Of
Hugo, had tried on several occasions
to make of this cry national slogan,
to call to his support all parties in
France. The Rhine is, according to
Frenchnen. the natural boundary of
France. The Germans, whom the
emperor would like to make his sub
ject, however, do not agree with him.
The people of the German Rhincish
provinces are German in language,
tastes aud feelings, and have no ad-
mira,ion Of Napoleon III. or his pol
icy. Belgian, with its French speak
ing population, and with but forty
years OF national existence to over
turn, would be a much easier acqusi-
ton for France.
France already owns the west
bank of the Rhine from few miles
north of Basic, in Switzerland, to the
tromtier of the Palatinate at LATTER
burg. The possession of the last
named district would add to the list
of French cities Spires, with its old
cathedral, and tls fortified places of
Landau and Neustadt, besides a
large number of smaller towns and
villages. To Rhineish Prussia -
speaking always of western shore of
the Rhine-the first town of impor-
lance is Worms, associated with the
name Of Luther. After passing the
fiat, highly cultivated district through
which the Rhine here sluggishly rolls
along, the towers and bridges of
Mayence loom in sight. THIS is a
city of strategic and historic impor-
lance. Shortly further on is Bingen,
and there begins the marvellous
scenery which has given to the Rhine
such world wide celebrity and has
made familiar the names of such
tritling though picturesque hamlets
as Oberwessel, ST. Goar, Boppart,
Andernach. Bacharach, Remangcn,
and the like. Midway among these
is Coblentz. overlooked by "Ehen-
breistein's castled hight" and still
further down the stream is the
collegiate town Of Bonn.
TO add all these to the lrnQ list oil
French towns would certainly be &
splendid gain to France. This is
what is meant when Frenchmen Cry
with Victor Hugo, "Takc back the
Rhine tits, however, large enter
prise, and not likely TO succeed.
