seeded on stubhle and corn land lhiok the
Lister Bone very superior article, aud don t

must become very popular. think II is the
very hest article mixed with Peruvian Guano
for wheat, and at ten 10 Twelve dollars ton
cheaper than y rad think If this
fact is fairly set forth TO the farmers that they
will manipulate their own fertilizers, aud feel
assured that they will get II better article, and
thereby save len to twelve dollars per ton.

How often we hear of innocent school
days as being the happiest of life. What
a number of compositions have been writ
ten in trying to tell .of. their happiness.
Listen to me just a moment, my friends,
and let me tell you of some of the mise
ries of school life. Suppose you were to
try all day long to work out one of those
examples in proportion. and then at last
fall asleep and dream as this to that =:
that /: to the answer. and to your great as
constituent there they were all worked out,
answer and all set down in a row as plain
as a b C. Then to your utter surprise
wake up and find there is not a word of it
so. 1t was only dream. Now would you
not call that a misery? Then, some great
lubberly boy, would hide your croquet
and some of the bee-gum-gentry" COM
pare your head to. a wagon wheel-or
suppose you had a new dress you priced
because it was neac and pretty, and some
of the girls would tear the rufhe off, or
spill ink on it, would you not call these
miseriesI Think not then that the mer-
nv hearted school girl knows not trouble,
not to say any thing about this abomina-
BILE way they have of writing compositions
nowadays in a half hours time, which is
a whole world full of miseries, and for a
variety of miseries. Prof. will give us a
scolding as high as Il rec times a day m
times. Z. l.. l..

Cauntthe Cast.

In Washington County there are 5,601
children of school age, that is, over six
and under eighteen years. If only one
half these children should attend school
for FIVE months in the year, it will cost
$4,000. If it were possible for all the
children to attend school for five months,
the cost would be SIS, 900. We estimate
tuition at n dollar a scholar per month.
No n objects to paying a dollar per
month.
Now, if we are unable to educate one
half of our ,children, we are, indeed, in a
sad situation. 1t is time we were looking
into the matter. We are not able to pay
for the education of our children in private
schools. 1t is estimated that $4,000 will
pay the expense of teaching all the chill
dren in the country for five months, that
is $4,000 will pay for a better class
of schools han nave ever been taught in
the county, SO that men who talk about
preferring private tuition do not count the
cost. Free schools are cheaper than pri-
vate ones, and at the same time much bet
ter.
The proposition to levy tax of twoand
one half mills on the dollar including poll
tax will give us about $4,000. This
small tax the people ought to give cheer
fully. If all the children can be schooled
better for $4,000 than half of them can
be for S14,OO, there is something at stake
in this school question. There is money
in it, for every rich man as well as for ev-
cry poor man.
Count up the cost before you decide
against free schools. If you oppose the
tax you oppose education. If you want
to encourage schools, vote the tax. The
worth of a school system cannot be estima-
ted in dollars aud cents.

Teachers Meeting.

There was more interest manifested than
is usual on such occasions. Several young
ladies who are attending Mr.. Fences school
read essays that were very creditable to
them. Interesting papers were also read
by some two or three of the teachers
The attendance was large and attentive.
Several short speeches were made by the
teachers and friends of education.
There was considerable interest manifest
on the subject of the proposed school tax.
The expression of the teachers was deci-
dedly in favor of the measure, and tn
people of the neighborbood expressed them
selves as decidedly in favor of the school
tax. The meeting passed off pleasantly.
Many of our teachers do not know the ad-
vantages to be derived from these teach
er's meetings.
Through them the people may be stirred
up to a sense of their duty in regard to
schools. The teachers themselves are en-
couraged to greater efforts in behalfof ed
u%cation. Teachers need something to
quicken them. AS a class they are often
likely to fallinto careless ways Of teaching.
Many teach year after year without max
ing any progress at all. A teacher who
does not improve himself, will not be able
to advance his pupils very much.
Our people do not feel on the subject
of schools as they should. Live teachers
are needed in every ~neighborhood to stir
them up. Men who do not read and study
and observe, are poorly qualified to fill
the teachers chair in the school
The teacher forms public opinion to a
great extent. He is responsible for the
erroneous opinions of the masses respect
ing schools. We have had a class OF
teachers in our schools that have done
much to bring reproach upon free educa-
ton. Some are still teaching who dishon-
or the profession and cause the people to
oppose common schools. Teachers let US
inform ourselves so that we may prove
ourselves worthy of our high and noble
calling.

Not True.

We last week published an article which
was going the rounds of the press, first APP
pearing in the Cincinnati Gazette, to the
effect that a certain Mr.. -. was drown
ed in Crooked Creek, KY, while receiving
the ordinance of baptism. We learn since
that the story is a hoax. as no such occur
renee took place. What object any one
could have in lying on SO serious a subject,
we are unable to see, unless he belonged
to some rival sect, and hoped thereby to
injure the Baptists by discOuraging con-
verts from receiving the ordinance in that
form, through fear of being drowned. If
such was his object, we fear it will take
something more than Baptism even by
immersion, to save him. Such christians
as he deserve to be immersed nmid ocean
with a mill stone tied to their necks.
