Graded school.

An active effort has been made by some
of our citizens TO secdro, by subscription az
amount sufficient to continue rhe graded
school during the ensuing Ten mouths Many
OF cur citizens approaching the advantages
presented by the graded school system, are
ready to contribute the amounts solicited,
Vile 9th rs have mani ested an uuwiliingueSs
do any thing.
II is we'll known tlat the public funds will
enable trustees to conduct the schools but
fiye ION tbs, bat by small subscription
upon The part of the pao trns of the schools,
the Trustees can secure an appropriation
from The Peabody fund which viii enable
them TO continue the school ten moth and
give every child in the district the ppor-
tunity Of securing good English and class
zeal education. As far as the public school
officers are concerned. there is nothing gain
ed ~ establishing schools of this character.
1t increases their labor without any increase
in compensation. 1t saves the community a
large amount Of money every year. The
rates at good private school for classical
pupils are from forty to fifty dollars per
year. In this school the average contribu-
ton Ky those sending classical pupils is
about twelve dollars and fifty cents, shew~
ing gain Of from twenty-seven to thirty
ssven dollars upon each classical sch olar.--
In other departments there is also con
siderable saving. But as with all good in
situations objections are urged TO this, the
most plausible of which is, that parties who
are able 10 contribute their portion refuse to
do so, and educate their children upon the
funds contributed by the more liberal por-
zion. of the community. This really should
be no objection, if you eau by this means !,
educate your children st one third Of wba
it would cost you in private school, you
make by the enterprise, and the position o.
the man who is in as good circumstances as
yourself, and would fierce his children into
the school TO take advantage Of the funds
contributed by you is by 10 means an enVia-
BILE one. We pity him but rejoice that the
System illustrates its beauties by opening it
doors to the admission Of his children.
The school will begin on Thursday next
It is important that pupils should BE-
present at the opening, as the classes for the
session will be performed at that lime.

The New Methodist Church in Ednburg
was dedicated on Sunday last. The follow>
ing ministers were present: ReTs. Pr. Dun
can, j W. Wolf, Stringer, Wilson and Shoaff.
The obligatory sermon was preached by Dr.
Duncan, President of Randolph Macon Col>
lege. The Subject of the discourse was
'sFor other Foundation can no man lay than
that is laid, which is Jesus Christ" The
discussion was marked by simplicity, clear.
ness, strength and eloquence, and was listen
ed to with the most profound attention. After
the sermon d collection was lifted for the
purpose of paying the debt upon the church
and between four and five Hundred dollars
was realized. Every effort was made to ac
comodate the large crowd assembled but in
spite of the active efforts Of the committee
large number could not be Accommodated.
The hospitality Of the citi zens was extended
to the visitors in the most cordia manner
and the only regret was that we could not
accept all he invitations.
The Church is an elegant edifce, substan
tialls built and finished in beautiful style.
Il stands g monument TO the energy of the
ladies who, with FIVE dollars borrowed cap
ital, fearlessly started the enterprise.

CHICKEN CHoLBRA.-A friend informs US
that he has discovered reliable cure for
chicken cholera, which is simply to feed
them fat bacon chopped in pieces about the
size of a grain of corn. His chickens had
been dying of very fast, and from the time
he first administered the remtdy he has not
lost a single chicken. He is satisfied that
it is also preventive, and that if the
fowls we're fed bacon two or three times a
week they would not be subiect to this pre-
vailing disease. Farmers and others whose
chickens are dying off by hundreds, should
give this simple remedy trial.-Erchaage.

Complaint is justly made by many of our
farmers living west of this piics, thas they
are charged unreasonable toll by Me Valley
Turnpike Company. The gate is situated a
several hundred yards below the Columbia
Furnace road, and though travelling but a
short distance, our farmers are required to
pay full rates aud are not allowed the
privilege of taking the gate by the year, for
ordinary travelling.
1t is an imposition. and we think the road
over the commons should be SO improved
that there will be no necessity for our farm
ers liv ing in that section of the county using
the turnpike at all. A reasonable yearly
toll, all would be willing to pay, but by en-
forcing present rates, the company succeeds
in driving the whole travel off of the road.
