Our School superintendent.

EDIToR Journal: II is understood upon tho
streets that our Board Of Education has neglect
ed to re-employ Mr.. Troup as Superintendent Of
our schools and the indications are, it will not.
If you can, will you please inform US why this
Is so2
Mr. Troup commenced his hbors here under
great embarrassments which continued through.
nut most Of the year, yetby indomitabie energy
and uutiring industry, he succeeded in teaching
and managing the schools 10 the general salts
faction OF all who sent their children to him.
This evidenced by the fact that every one Of the
parents. with a single exception, whose children
attended the High School, petitioned the Board
t. re-engage Mr.. Troup, and that the pupils Of
that department. on the evening of his departure
for home, met him at the depot and presented
him with valuable gold watch, as a token Of
their estimation Of him as a man aud their re-
gard for him as teacher.
In addition to these, as many Of the parents
who sent to the other departments, and tax-pay-
ers, as had an opportunity to do so, petitioned
the Board to re-employ him. They did this,
because all felt that new life, energy and vigor
had been infused into assistants and pupils and
that all the schools had been elevated and i'm
proved In efficiency and general well-doiug.
Our people feel that Mr.. Troup did well, not
withstanding the adverse circumstances by
(which he was surrounded, and that during an
other year his labors would be much more pro-
iuctive Of good than during the past.
Then why does not the Board employ him
having before it these unmistakable evidences Of
his fitness and the desire Of our citizens Do we
find the answer IN the report that at the meeting
Of the Board on Friday evening last, one Of The
members stated that he had emo respect for the
petitious-that he considered them as nothing"
and Of another, who declared that he " despised
the petitions and the spirit that dictated them ?''
These gentlemen should remember that they
were placed in the position they now occupy to
sxecute the wishes Of our people, when ascer-
tanned, in relation to our schnol matters, and
they mistake their duties, and their standing in
society, when they assume to disrespect and des-
pise the views and desires of men and women
quite as intelligent and respectable as them
selves. They seem to have been impressed with
the erroneous idea that the holding Of petty Of
fee, conferred dignity and Importance where
none may have existed before.
One of the charges of these gentlemen against
the members of the cold Board" was that the
latter took important action without first learp-
ing the wishes of the people in relation thereto
but the former have gune immeasuraby farther
an! boldly prnclaim that they de,pise those views
and wishes when advised of them in respect
| ful and proper manner. Can assurance take a
higher flight

A REMEMBRANCE.


II seems but yesterday my friend
Since first saw your face,
But twas a very different scene,
And such different place.
A thoughtless boy, you were my friend,
And full Of careless glee,
Little you cared for storms or clouds
Upon life's boislerous sea.
I was a timid shrinking girl,
And never can forget,
The sorrow that you brought me then,
shudder at u yet.
I wandered slowly home from school
Half dreaming twas my way,)
The dreams of night not half so sweet
As those ! dreamed by day.
Nv schoolmates many, by my side,
Were bent on fu1 that night,
When by the mill, with busy hum
One gave a scream of fright,
And pointed to boyish form,
Standing with careless air,
Aud laughing as he saw Que fears
Without single care.
For the poor wounded futtered,
Whose song was hushed for aye,
The notes that never, never more
Would greet the coming day.
His gun was standing by his side
And well its work was done,
And with an air Of conscious pride
He tossed them one by one.
Some lay with peaceful folded wing,
Deaths cold aud icy hand
Had touched the tender little life,
And from the forest band
Upon the murrOw's golden mprn,
A farewell song would ring,
With mournful sadness through their haunts
As birds alone can sing.
And others luttered painfully,
