Nothing gratities us more than to
know that the grade Of common school
teachers is becoming higher and high
er 1t is good work; let it 60 on.
No greater mistake is made than to
suppose any one can teach school
who will condescend to do it. AS for
the condcscension it is really the con-
trary; it is elevating to unfold mind
in it's earlier stages, when we remem-
Der that the expansion Will never cease
either in this world or in the world to
come, and that upon the direction Civ
en- now, may depend our eternal fu.
ture.

A few Considerations for school
Boards and Directors.

A house OF minimum size should
never be less than 24N32, and better
still, 2Sx40; the height should be from
II to 16 teet 1t should contain, in
addition to the school room proper, a
clothes room for boys and separate
one for the girls, with an outside door
leading into each.
Each room should have windows
on at least two sides, and always sc
constructed that they can be let down
from the top.
The doors to the school room should
never open directly 30 the weather,
but always into hall or lobby.
There should be clothes room for
each OF the sexes adjoining every school
room.
Nentilatlng tiues should be consid-
cred as much necessity as smoke
tlues.
Hard finish blackboards; from three
to four feet wide, should be put upon
the walls wherever there is room tor
them.
The windows should have inside
blinds, with rolling Stats on the pan
els.
Two or more adjacent rooms may
be separated by sliding partitions, SO
that they can be used together as one
room when occasion requires.
A house containing from one to
three rooms, should be but one story
high; for four rooms, two story house
is better.
Every School designed for both SEX
cs, no matter whether it be large or
small, must have separate play grounds,
out buildings, stairways, clothes rooms,
&c; but both sexes may properly
come to the same room for study aud
recitation.

National Wealth.

,H We we're to add other items which
though not great in themselves, yet make 9
considerable aggregate; If to the sum thus
made We were further to add the value Of the
lumber this year got ready for market; Of the
COAL iron, copper, and the precious metals
mined; If to this vast sum we were to add the
value of the things ma manufactured during the
year, We should see that the whole was very
much more than the total debt of the United
States. Such is the immense value of the la
Dor performed, in a single year, by our labor
ing people and our machines. great pro.
portion Of this vast product of labor does not
form any part of the permanent wealth, the
capital, Of the country. 1t is consumed near
ly as soon as produced. But the profits of its
production, and Of manufactures, transporta-
tion, merchandising, growing out OF 1t, and
making tho commerce OF the country, except
the comparatively small share had with other
countries, and which go to make up the per-
manent wealth Of the nation, can hardly be
less, for the year, than one-fourth our whole
national debt!-[Chicago Post.
There is a vast deal of good hard
sense in the above. A great portion
Of the labor of the country is directed
to the production of articles of imme
diatc consumption-the result OF the
labor is consumed nearly as soon as
produced. This is the case with agri-
cultural labor and mining labor. But
it is the profits derived from the Sec
ondary use of these articles produced
and mined that ent, into the perma-
nent wealth of the country, adding to
the national capital. There is no accre-
tion of national wealth IN the produc
ton of bushel of wheat or the mining
of a ton OF coal or iron that are imm e.
diately, in raw state, shipped out Of
the counsry. There is, in these cases,
a positive loss to the country But it
:s in the use of this bushel Of wheat,
this ton Of coal, copper or iron, where
in these articles add to the national
wealth, or capital.
Every bushel of agricultural prod
uct raised, or ton of mineral mined,
represents, not solely the labor ex-
pended III its production or mining,
but az the profits it can be made to ex-
press in subsequen: use.
History teaches that purely agri-
cultural or mining people are always
poor. The agriculturists and miners
derive no profit from the products OF
their labor. All the profits OF their
labor are sna,chcl up by other hands,
and go to enrich other people.
We think the Post estimates the to-
tai value of the profits, through manu-
tactures, aud mercantile transactions,
OF the agricultural and mining labor Of
this country, at too small a figure
But, at whatever figures it may be
placed, it is too large an item to be
thrown away, and given to other peo-
pie. These profits should be retained
by our people. Instead of being di-
minished, they should be augmented.

A very influential Free Trade meet
ing was held at Springfield, ILL.,, on
Jan. 11th. The orator was Mr. Storrs,
Of Chicago, who is, perhaps, the most
happy and fluent speaker, on our side,
in the West. Mr.. Storr's chief weapon
is r,dicule. Il Free Trader.
Not doubt of it, it is always and
everywhere the trce-traders chief
weapon; facts, experience, "the great
est good to the greatest number" is
not natural to them, and as yet they
have failed to get them on their bill OF
imports. How loyal and patriotic
these fellows are can be seen from the
following, which has the ring of old
fashioned Southern threats of war few
years since:
s'It the Protectionists keep in pow
err, we shall have another rar to abol-
ish slavery, but this time white slavery"
We hopo these Free Traders will
kindly wait till our National debt is
paid of, before inaugurating their new
war.-[.Waukon Sta ndard.

TRY to Reform Them.

In almost every school, especially in
towns and cities, there is always a
class who are rough, bad boys, and
some teachers are scarcely able TO con-
troll them. If such boys are allowed
to 60 on they will turn out worse men,.
Try kindness with them, show them
that you believe in them, and it will
touch their hearts, and in short time
many of them will inwardly resolve to
be better. l know there are some
who, if treated kindly, make sport of
it before crowds; but when they are
alone they feel the act, and are deter
mined to try and please the teacher
ever after. We have seen many such
eases, and we believe in using kindness.

l wonder why the oracle
Before whicl. others bow,
Does not suffice for me as we'll;
But doubt best suits me now.
Men talk of faith as some great need
The soul must ever feel:
But faith comes not within my creed =
To it ne'er appeal.
And Why should tales of ancient days,
Grown musty with their age,
Be guides for me, while Nature stays,
The ever wisest sage?

For how can others see my need,
And satisfy it now?

And seek to use them well;

Because I thus rebel.

Before these human oracles.
