Death Of Prentice.

George d. Prentice is dead He
was struck with death on Saturday
morning, Jan. 22d, at the house Of
his son in Louisville, and drew his
last breath in the presence of his
son, his physician, and a few devot-
ed friends at four o'clock Sunday
morning.
He was born in Preston, Con-
nectieut, in 1902, and died in the
6Sth year Of his age. His attend
ing physician, watched his last mo-
ments with the greatest tenderness
and care, but the disease, Pneumo.
ria and Rheumatism, had taken too
firm hold OF its victim, to let 60 its
fatal hold. Mr., Prentice during
his last hours, requested the wife
Of the physician, DR.. Benson, to
read to him the following extracts
from one ofhis earliest productions,
truthfully and 9mournfully suggest
i've and ELECTED from him these
words, which were probably his
last on earth: "Well, well, it were
better for us all to realize that. Y
The extract read as follows:
sit can not be that this earth is
mans only abiding place; it can
not be that our life is only a bubble
cast up by eternity, to float mo-
ment upon the waves and sink in
nothingness. Else why is it the
high and glorious aspirations which
leap like angels from the temple of
our hearts, are forever wandering.
unsatisfed? Why is it that the
rainbow and clouds come over us
with beauty that is not Of earth,
and then pass off and leave us to
wonder on their lovelinessY Why
| is it that the stars which hold their
festival around the midnight throne
are set above the grasp of our lin.
tied faculties, forever mocking US
with their unapproachable glory?
And finally, why is it that bright
forms Of human beauty are present
ed to our view and taken from us,
leaving a thousand streams of our
affections to flow back in an alpine
torrent upon our heart? We are
born for a higher destiny than that
of earth. There is a realm where
the rainbow never fades, where the
stars are spread out before us like
islands that slumber on the ocean,
and where the beautiful being which
passes from us like shadows will
stay forever in our presence"
He drew his last breath as calm
ly as an infant slumhers, and with
his intellect mclouded and strong
to the last Columbus Gazette

HARTFORD, Conn, Sept. I.
A special meeting of the stockholders of the
Hartford & New Haven Railroad, voted to-day
unanimously approving the contract with the
New York & New Haven road for perpetual
union of property and interests, but not con-
solidation OF stock under a statute of this
State. The contract was also approved by n
meeting of the New York & New Haven Rail-
road stockholders at a meeting in New Haven
to-day. The contract unites the two roads
under one board of management, composed OF
five directors from each. The earnings OF
both roads go into common fund, from which
expenses are to be paid, and the net earnings
are to be divided in proposition of fortythree
per cent. to Hartford & New Haven road,
and titty-seven per cent. to New York New
Haven road.

estinp, A lecture has been delivered each
evening during the session. On Monday eve
ming DIR. True gave some useful information
to teachers, in regard to teaching Mathemati-
cal Geography. Tuesday evening, Prof.
Rounds, principal of the Western State Nor
NAL School, gave an interesting account of
his recent visit at Toronto. He described the
buildings and grounds of the Training or
Normal School at Toronto. According to his
statements this property is much more valu-
able than that of any single normal school in
New England. The school grounds (although
in the city,, include eight acres, and are arts
tically arranged. The common school sys-
TEN of the Province of Ontario is superior to
ours in several respects. The average length
of schools in this Province Getty and ruraD +,
is forty weeks, and in Maine less than one
| half that number.
! Prof Allen made few remarks on the
schools and school systems of the South.
| After the close of the lecture, he brought to
| light many facts in regard to these matters
that are not known even to the reading pub
! lie.
| Prof Woodman, of Dartmouth College,
delivered lecture on drawing" on We'd
nesday evening. This was full of beautiful
thoughts, which were clothed in the simplest
and best of language Prof. Woodman will
do vast amount of good in this State by his
| lectures on drawing.
| Thursday evening Hon. Warren johnson ad-
dressed the members of the Institute. He
compared our school system with those of
| Prussia and France, and made suggestions in
| regard to changes in our own. He also spoke
of the great needs of the teachers of Maine,
among these were: LIST, more knowledge; I'd,
greater power of expressing in the best
manner what they do know; Sd, more ex-
te nded knowledg of "human mater" The
address was well received by crowded
house.
Prof. Allen in his lecture on Friday night
spoke of the advantages of the teachers life,
its responsibility and reward. He gave three
teachers notices worthy Of erery teachers
notice, viz, preserve the innocent;" ''In-
struct the ignorant and "Reciaim the
vicious H. closed his remarks by speak
ing in high terms of State Superintendent
johnson and the JOY he (Allen) had in view
ing the Improvements in our educational sys-
TEN. The closing exercise was the comforting
of the certificates upon the members. 232
members have been in attendance. The In
stitute has been a decided success.
The Normal school opens with one hun
dred and forty students. The Androscoggin
r. II. is nearly completed to Pennington vii
lage. They have just finished driving the
piles across the meadow, it requiring more
than five hundred piles for the purpose. The
depot grounds are nearly graded, and the
building will be built at once. l understand
they are to cost from ten to fifteen thousand
dollars, this amount including enough to con-
struct an engine house.
Pennington is one of the best farming
towns in the State. One will get some idea
of the wealth Of this town by the fact that
there are but eighteen cities or towns in the
phoie State of Maine that has as large valu-
alton in 1870. XoN.

Letter from Pennington.

FATMNGroN, Me-, Sept. 3, 1870.
DEAR JOURNAL Perhaps it may be of in
terest to your readers to know the origin of
the name of this town. One of the first set
tiers, Mr.. Porter, was native of the town of
Pennington, Conn, and being much attached
to that name, offered to give barrel of rum
providing he should have the honor of nam
ng the town. 1t is needless to say that the
present was accepted.
The Teachers Institute for Franklin coun-
ty, has just closed very interesting session.
Prof. Allen of Penn, has had charge of the
institute. He is just the right person for an
instructor in meetings like these. County
Superintendent Abbott, and DIR. N. 7. True,
have assisted in making the exercises inter-
