THE GOOD TEACHER.
BY REV. C. J. FEITT.

A class of men occasionally found
among us is that composed of individu-
ais who teach for gain. The cause of
their rarity is that very few situations
pay. If there were more lucrative po-
sitions this class would not be so limit
ed. They generally aspire to the Prin-
|cipalship of High School or some
other elevated position under the COM
mon school system, promising consid-
erableemolument and possibly honor.
They drop anything they sare engagg-
ed nj if they can only secure good
payingsituation as teacher.
Lawyers, doctors, ministers of the
gospel, if you please, all are found
grasping for the few places that pay, il
their own profession is not sufficiently
remunerative. Strangers examine our
school system and say it is defective
because so many teachers in high posi-
tions are found incapable of ofperfOrming
their duties satisfactorily; hence they
ask with good reason, how are the 9TH
schools taught which must be under
the charge of inferior teachers because
less wages are given? A slight exam
ination of the schools and teachers there
would demonstrate the cause.
In schools of low grades teachers are
generally found who have given their
occupation great deal of attention and
are at the same time conscientious and
faithful SO far as their ability extends.
While in securing person to take
charge Of school of advanced grade
trustees and committees overlook the
less pretentions claims of the Common
School teacher and are fascinated by
the insinuating conversation of the pol
ished applicant who can write A. NJ.
after his name and bestow upon him
the highest place in their gift though
he has not witnessed the workings of
schools in ordinary since he was ten or
twelve years of age and is perfectly ig-
norant of the first principles of didactics.
But by far the worst kind of teachers
is that class composed OfIndividu-
ais who think teaching is an easier
mode of getting through the world
than any other. They exult over the
general adoption Of the six hour sys-
tenn. They chuckle over the omission
of Saturday. With fearful throbbing

cotton. In the articles of food the re-
covery has already advanced consibera-
bly, in anticipation of the peace.
This, however, does not repair the in
jury, either to the dealers who lost by
the decline, or to the farmers, feeders
and planters who have marketed their
years crop at the low prices.
The peace, therefore, will bring inn
portant relief to the business of this
country. 1t will bring largely incra-
sed demand for our bread-stuffs and
meat. 1t will bring a revival in cotton
which will revive the courage and raise
the credit ofthe planter at atime when
hevery much needs it. 1t will bring
in the German shipping and reduce the
price of the freight, and it will check
the advance in many kinds offoreign
goods, a-,s--sF

COMMUNICATTONS.

ED. CHRoNICLE.-Ise see by your pa
per that the new school house cost
nearly So, 600 exclusive of interest on
bonds and fees of the Treasurer. This
is very extravagant and outrageous
when we see that the. Taxpayers have
paid about $11 200 to build a Masonic
Hall. This is beyond the power Of the
Board, and illegal, as indeed $24 900 of
it is illegal and cannot be collected by
law, if resisted. We see that the Ma
sons paid 81 900 only and do receive the
full one-third of the building or 81, 900
worth of property for 1000 cash. This
is outrageous. Indeed the third story
would cost much more than the third
Of the building.
The Board owe it to the public to ex-
plain the matter and show the legal
authority for building Masonic Hall,
and also for exceeding the power given
them by the people when they were
authorized to expend $1,000 only, by
the vote of the people. CITIZEN.
/ The above brief but pointed article
refecting upon our school officers, we
trust, will result only in general good
to taxpayers. The Masons can, in no
way, be blamed for driving a capital
bargain, and if the town has been the
sufferer it must throw the blame upon
its servants.
The publication of this statement has
developed one or two side questions
among the inquisitive. Whether this
statement SO long delayed, comes out
at this late date for the purpose of bring
ing out Mr.. Swaney as candidate for
reelection Whether the people are
to believe from this statement that Mr..
Swaney magnanimously refused to
charge anything for his important SER
vices as treasurer? or is said sum in
cluded in the item "Interest Paid" p
We know that these are. annoying
questions but we trust Mr.. Swaney will
explain.

Another Steamboat Explosion-S,
-,,--4fai Lives Lost. u

The steamer w. r. Arthur exploded
her boilers IA miles above Memphis,
Jan, %. The boat took fire and burned
till the bow sank and all who were
gathered on the lower deck were wash
ed away. Several at the bursting of
the boilers took to the water and were
lost. The Captain and a few passen-
gers remaining in thecabin were saved.
The survivors were picked up by two
steam tugs hailed by man drifting on
abale Of cotton, about o'clock next
morning. Five persons took the life
boat belonging to the exploded steam
er, went ashore and turned her adrift.
The boat was valued at $4,000. 1t was
only little more than two weeks since
that the McGill was lost with so or so
persons aboard. 81, ~

RALLROAD PRoSpECUS.

The Lztelligeacer Of Monday contains
a full report Of the Railroad meeting
held in Wheeling on Saturday night.
The meeting was wei attended and
speeches were made by Gov. Stanton,
Thos. Sweeney, Richardson, Cochran,
Hubbard and Others. Stanton's re-
marks expressed fear of rivalry on
the part of Bellaire and the danger
that Wheeling incurs by allowing this
road to terminate elsewhere than on
the Island. His objections to the st.
Clairsville route, is thst after leaving
the Central road at Glencoe the coal
field is entirely deserted. His bright
side view Of the Wheeling creek route
received back-set by few remarks
by Mr.. Hubbard who showed that the
bridge difficulty rendered the terminus
of the Toledo and Belmont road ut
Wheeling very questionable. He said
that 1t must terminate at Bridgeport,
and Of what benefit would it be to
Wheeling? Capt. Cochran stated that
the Toledo Railroad fund of $46e, 900
was in, the hands of Committee in
favor Of the Bellaire terminus, that
said Committee had gone to Baltimore
to secure the assistance of the Baltimore
and Ohio Company, in building road
from Toledo to some point on the Gem
- - =
pledging $300, 900 on the part of the city
to the construction of the road and
bridging Back river. The question is
now. How much would be left to aid
in the construction OF the road after
building said bridge? %

Did you ever ''tobog" any? OF couse
you did, for who is it that lived i'm the
country, that hasn't dragged a hand
sled up hillside merely to have the
pleasure of riding down? Some would
call this labor in vain, but we used to
think it fun alive, especially if we had
some one to help pull the sled up the
hill.
Toboggining used to be favorite
amusement at school, the Capteen hills
being well'suited to the business. Our

Purify the Blood With
DR.. WEAVER'S Medicines
To~ u,1ro ore

THESE Invaluable Medicines have achieved a
COMPLETE TRIUMPH in eradicating Humors,
of all kinds, from the human system. They
were introduced to the public some six years
since and have been used with entire success.
The CANKER AND SALT RHEUM SYRUP is
taken internally, which cleanses the Blood,
by throwing impurities TO the surface, when
eruptions are destroy ed, and Health and Beauty
restored. Their ASTONISHING SUCCESS has
called out many ignorant pretenders, who
have introduced their wonderful preparations
to the public. They are out in almost every
form. from Pannc9as down to Pills, and all Tor
Humors, (of course ihey dre.)
But IL has been reserved to DIR. WEAVERS
SYRUP and CERATE to achieve what, under
1he ecircumstances,) may be regarded as the
most brilliant triumph yet achieved by any
medicine every introduced to the American
public. Why IL this? Simply because they
perform what they promise; and n notwithstand
eriul preparations to tho public. the SALT
RHEUM SYRUP and CERATE keep steadily
on their way, conquering as they 20. II the
public wish to try these new preparations, we
have not word TO say, for they have a SURE
REMEDY TO FALL BACK UPON, viz, DIR.

are well aware, for thousands, In all sections of
