SCHOOL HOUSES.

A great deal might be said on this sub
Ject. Our school houses are not sucl
buildings as the enterprise of this age ex.
poets and demands. Such houses ans.
wercd a very good purpose in the past,
but better ones must now take their place.
Rude log babins, when nothing better
could be obtained, were thought to be
good enough. In those days, school
houses were constructed without reference
to any of the rules of architecture. Such
things as ventilation and heating were
hardly thought of. Anything that could
keep out the cold in winter and the rain
IN summer answered for the district school
house.
We desire to see a better class of school
buildings. In several districts in this
county, buildings have been erected dur
ing the last year. 1t does not seem to be
understood, however, that the style of
school houses has changed greatly in the
last few years. The object of this arti-
Gle is, to-call attention to the Importance
OF consulting taste, comfort, and convent
ence in the erection of the district school
house.
Every one would certainly feel a pride
at seeing a neat house in his n~eighborhood.
Children are easily impressed and seldom
forget the impressions made upon them
by the school house and It's surroundings.
Children love order and beauty, and, if
they were encouraged, in many instances,
would ornament the school grounds at
their W expence. If our country school
houses were tastefully. constructed and
pleasantly situated, the attendance of
the pupils would be more satisfactory, and
what i>better stiil-a more interesting and
profitable class of teachers would take the
place of those who are willing to teach in
any kind of a house. Up with a better
class OF county school houses, for the inter-
est ofeducation demands them.

MARRIED..

On Wednesday Dec. IS, 1871, at 6I
o'clock, p. 81, by Rev. J. l.. Mann, Mr.,
j. A. FEBRUARY and Miss Ida KEEN,
all of this place.
This marriage feast was one of those
peculiar delights that stands preeminent
in human history. All the hopes. ambi-
tions and joys of life concent rate in this
grand contamination. The happy reunion
of the family, with the presence of the
bride s brother, Mr.. Milton Keen and his
estimab BILE lady from Georgia, in whose
honor as well as the bride and groom, the
festivities were so brilliant.
Over this altar of Hymen cluster the
rich, roseate garlands of earth tinged with
the glow of its purest fame. The new
Joy Gus life began amid the charms of mu-
sic, a scene of charming beauty and the
good wishes of numerous friends. Not
the Least attractive feature of the enter
tainment was the grand table so hand
somely spread and attentively presided
over.
For ourselves and in behalf of numer-
Gus friends we tender to the bride and
groom the earnest wish that the united
stream of their being may ever flow with
musical glsdness and the brightest beams
of prosperity fall upon its gentle tide.
Entertainment.
The opening of Lampson and Grisham's
Hall, in their new magnificent building,
by the Concert of the Methodist Church,
South, on last Monday night, was a brill
liant affair. The performance. in its gen.
eral get-up, arrangement and the manner
in which all actors played their respective
role, eclipsed any thing of the kind ever
brought before a Jonesborough audience.
Without laying any claim to ex-
traordinary ability to criticize such enter
tainments, we make no venture in saying
that the Concert was a most fattering and
complimentary success which was duly
appreciated by the large and intelligent
auditory. The programme was happily
conceived, the different parts ipterspersed
with the richest and sweetest musical dis
coursing.
The first charade is entitled Petroleum.
in which Pete. represented by Mr.. Chas.
+. Dosser was admirably ''done" making
known to the great disgust of his stylish
sisters, the poverty Of the family before
Dad struck lie.
The Tableaux, Ethiopian performance
and Mrs. Jarley's Wax Works were fault
ly executed.
Horatio Sprigg ms, (Mr. Robert Taylor
the '-brick" upon the occasion. In
toxicated on H1uit dignity, he became a
staggering, noisy imperti nent old man
his money freely, i~nterrupting
his effervesence finding vent in
hurrahs for General jackson.
The performance was repeated on
Tuesday evening with the same brilliant
and gratifying results.
The proceeds are devoted to the repairs
of the NJ. Il. Church South.
