ScHooL ExHIBITIoN.--The pupils of the
Union School of this place had an exhibi
tion at Music Hall on Friday afternoon
last, under the discretion of Mr.. More
house, the Superintendent, and his assist
ant Teachers. The exercises were given by
the more advanced classes, and consisted
in original essays, declamations, dialogues
and music The scholars acquitted them
selves creditably, showing that they are
acquiring useful knowledge, and are re.
ceiving that kind Of training in our school
that will be useful to them, 1t was an er,
hibitiOn and not an examination of the pu-
pils, in their various branches of study.
But we are well satisfied that the pupils
are rapidly acquiring knowledge of the
different branches of study necessary to a
useful education. There has been a recess
in the scheol of one week, and on Monday
it will be reopenod, and continue, we be-
lieve, until the first of June, when the
school year will close.

up; and before he could regain his feet,
the son was upon him, and very shortly
afterwards old Summer himself, with his
two hundred and eighty pounds of com
pact, leviathan corporosity laid his huge
hand upon the williams shoulder.
"Well, we'll, my boy" said Bnrham
when he looked into my hero's face.
" I'm afraid I've interrupted another of
your little gamesl What were you up
to here" AS he spoke he snapped a
pair Of handouts upon my war-worn
veterans wrist.
The latter gave one more look into the
ruddy face of the Cyclopean officer, and
then subsidized.
1 told my story in very few words,
after which Mr.. Durham informed me
that my hero had never been to the war
but had enlisted four different times, and
dumped" big bounty each time. He
had also robbed a sutler at Augusta, and
done other various things. A telegram
had been sent from Portland to Norway
informing Durham the rascal was ON the
outward-b bound train.
"This telegram did not reach me"
said Mr.. Burnham "until after the train
had left South Paris. l telegraphed to
Byrant's Pond and to Bethel, and was
thinking to wait for the next freight
train, when Durham the baggage Master
told me of the man who had ridden off
with you. When he had described him
knew he had my man; so had only to
find your track in order to be sure of his. "
will only add that my wagon was not
seriously damaged, and while the officers
turned back with the bounty-jump:ng
sutler-robbing hero, l drove on and de-
livered the money package safely to its
owner; and further more, that from that
day to this l have made it rule never
to allow stranger seat by my side upon
my express wagon.
