our schools say this is 50. See the contrast
in some other State By proper arrange
ment of classes and studies, as can be
done in larger schools, as is done in grad
ed schools schools, as can be done ID
almost any school, each scholar can have
from 9 to 8 hours of recitation, of instruc-
ton, of drill, OF the contact OF his mind
with that of the teacher and those of his
class. This gives time to learn something
of the subject in hand, time to wake up
mind that would else drone on for want OF
the time on the part of the teacher to even
open the door, through which he could see
that there was something to be learned
something that would attract and interest
if he could only pass through, and explore
the beautiful fields upon which he can
only just give one glance.
The last years report of the Secretary
presents this matter in even worse light,
and gives but very small fraction over
one scholar to class.
Rutland weekly herald. [volume] (Rutland, Vt.) 1859-1877, 1870-04-07

In some of these States graded schools
modify these figures somewhat. but these
graded schools, being in larger proportion
in those States, would reduce the number,
in proportion, not to our advantage ;
and if we are compared with those States
where graded schools having large num-
bers are not numerous, we are still brought
under this unfavorable fact We have
too few scholars in a district, and our
State is cut up into such small territory,
that there are but few children to make
up school. These few children draw
but little of public money. They need
education as much as if there were more.
They need as good teacher, as long a
period of school continuance, e., as many
weeks and months of school in year
and this small amount of public money
does but very little towards making up
the salary a good teacher can command.
The balance must therefore be made up
of the property of the district, or by the
people without reference to property but
the people are few, the property less in
area, and so presumably less in value,
and both people and property must pay a
larger amount for schooling the few chill
dren of the district. They feel that it
presses heavily upon them, and they en-
ploy cheap teachers, which means cheap
teaching. They maintain school but a
short term, and the children grow up with
only the name of having attended school,
with little and almost no benefit from the
fragments of time spent at the school
house.
The same fact bears upon us by taking
the number actually attending We rank
very low. Two-thirds of the registered
children only give an average attendance
In other States, it runs to almost 6-7ths
in Massachusetts,; in New Hampshire
5-7ths
So the number of scholars to a teacher

Editor Rlltldnd Herald Just now
there is good deal said in this city about
Art and Art Museums Fine Art Muse
um for this city, with a permanent collec-
ton of works of art, OF the various kinds
always open to the public, as distinguished
from the semi-public collections of socie-
ties to which the public is welcomed at
certain seasons aud conditions But there
is collection of fine paintings, and en-
cravings, with some statuary, which
though somewhat scattered is always open
to the public, that which may be seen in
salesrooms of the dealers in any large
city. Sometimes the rarest works are
seen on the walls or exposed to view in
the windows. One has only to walk the
round of the principal dealers, OCCASION
ally in hours of leisure te quietly enjoy
these things.
In the windows of Williams & Everett,
on Washington street, there has been
some fine marine paintings by American
artists. One, which attracted good deal
of attention, being the representation of q
scene in some outer harbor, in the bright
ness of morning and dense fog: moth.

several men aboard, tossing about on the
waves, with little wind, and huge
ocean steamer painted white and the

hanging them in threatening manner,
its course being towards them, and whose
general outline fades from the sight al
its stern, surrounding the steamer with a
mystery and springing surprise upon
the more helpless small vessel. There
was no exaggeration about it, but just
such scene as is constantly occurring in
large port. @

Rhode Island the population is four and

"Mason and Dixon's line," but one single
State, that has so few people in district

Tribute.--An AcrOstic.
By I. W. G.

He has only gone to better sphere;
Oh, why do ye weep and moan him here!
No more life's weary paths he'll roam,
Deaths called him to his peaceful home,
Under the signing trees that wave,
Guarding the noble statesman's grave;
And where the soft winds gently weep,
Lies the form in its peaceful sleep.
Dimmed are many eyes with tears,
Sad and gloomy each day appears,
Tenderly, kindly remembered, will be
Ever the name that from care is now free.
Wearing a crown with the saints on high
Awakened to life beyond the sky
Round his Makers throne he stands,
Troubled no more with earthly hands,

EAST WALLINGFoRD. - Messrs Kent

mill property, including about one and a
half acres of land situated in the village,
and 40 acres of woodland, to Messrs. Aid
rich, Jones and Dodge of Shrewsbury, for
So, 800. We regret to announce the re-
firing from the business circle land we

who have done SO much by their energy
and their sterling worth and integrity to
advance the interests of East Walling-
ford, for we are forced to the conclusion
that were it not for them, this village
would to-day be far behind its present
size and standing in every worthy point
of view. But while we thus speak of the
retiring firm, we with pleasure welcome
the advent among US of men possessing
the ability and energy like the incoming
men. We bespeak for them success, and
only hope that in addition they will be to

knowledge as great indebtedness to their
labors as is now accorded to Messrs Kent

Looking at the subject by actual popu-
lation, and we find Vermont again greatly
the sufferer But one State has so few
people to district as this. Iowa has but
1OS to district; Vermont 100; then the
number runs up rapidly to New York,
having 331 to district.
New Hampshire is next to us, having 131
Connecticut. $50
Maine, los
The average, taking all the States in the
Union by the reports and census of 1860,
is one district to 272 of population. Yer
mont's average is less than one-half of
this general average.
The distance, according to the present
number of districts, requires only the bare
possibility of some one or two children
being obliged to go, at the very most, only
1877 rods, less than mile and one-fourth,
to school; that is, surprising the home OF
the child to be exactly at the remote cor
ner of the district
These facts show that this State is cut
up into so many districts of such small
size that very few people compose dis
trict. OF course, they cannot carry on
such matter, that requires attention, en-
ergy, and above all, cash, with that eff
ciency which larger number can do.
This supposes about equal wealth to
equal population.
We shall see that any school makes a
heavy tax upon SO few, and few can
easily escape it by deciding to have no
school, course not unfrequently adopted.
Another result comes from this cutting
up of the State. OF all the twenty North
ern States, Vermont has much the small
est number of scholars in district. For
instance,
