DEAR CHRONICLE
Again, after short vacation, the doors
of our school are orcned, and though a
diminished number Of students enter the
halls, all look happy and ready for work.
Prof. Charlton occupies the Presidents
chair, looking much improved Ivy his trip
east, and rest of eight weeks.
The whole number of students enrolled
in this department is IS, and the Acadcm-
c and Model Rooms have their proper
tomato number.
In the first range" we find eight SEN
iors all looking somewhat sober and anx
ious, doubtless from thoughts Of present
work and dull forehoding of examination
1t is to be regretted that so many per
sons attending school the fail and winter
terms, cannot finish The year; for, on
some accounts, the present term is the
most important one,
During this term the school is exam
ined by committees, certain portion of
the course of study is completed and cred
it given accordingly. But John, and Sam,
and William are needed on the farm or at
the work bench, and the rural districts
call loudly for Mary, and Jane, and Susan
to WELD the ruler of power in the school
house on the hill side, or mother needs
Jane in "the house at home" We doubt
not you, our absent members arc at work,
and We are we'll assured Of your success at
the pillow, the dairy, or the teachers desk,
for those who are faithful in school and
class room will succeed by the same efforts
in the battle of life. But we miss you
here in our diminished numbers, where
many desk stands waiting for an occu-
pant.

for his attempt on the life of Queen
Victoria, is set down to commence
next Wednesday. The prisoner has
made no effort to secure counsel for
his defense. 1t is probable that the
trial will be postponed, perhaps indef-
nitely, as the conviction seems to be
gaining ground that the boy is insane.

STop THE IYTEREsT.-Daniel Webster once
dined with an old Boston merchant, and when
they came to the wine, dusty old bottle was
carefully decanted by Peter and passed to the
host. Taking the bottle he poured out Mr..
Webster's glass and handed it to him. Then
pouring out another for himself, he held it to
the light and sad
chow do you like it, Mr.. Webster?"

"Now you can't guess what that cost me p
said the host.
"Surely not" said Mr.. Webster. 81 only
know that it is excellent"
"Well, now can tell you, for made care

interest to the first price. find that it cost me
the sum of just one dollar and twenty cents

"Good gracious you don't say So" said Mr..

presented it again with the remark:

TRUE WoMAN.-A true woman is not man
pish, is not boaster or loud talker, but always
gentle, genial, kind and con fiding, no debater
nor detamer, nor is she defnant or self asser-
tive, such as most have heard or read Of and
some may have met in social life; true
man has far less to say of rights than duties,
saying. by the way, little OF the latter, but ever
exemplifying them as opportunity offers for do
ing or performing them. How much more wo-
manly to be the gentle, loving wife, the faith
full mother, the trustful friend, than to be ever
clamoring for rights and always claiming and
urging her equality to man in mans peculiar
province. If there be a man, deeply and man
ifestly an object of sympathy and genuine hear
ty compassion, it is that benedict who has one
of these clamorous, self-asserting, mannish
things, born to be woman, yet failing to hon
or the character of true womanliness, for wife.
Alas alas for the lot Of that poor unfortunate
man. While nothing is more lovely than the
character of true woman, so nothing, as it
seems to us, can be more hateful than man
nishness in female character, where true wo-
manliness should ever be found. An effemi-
nate or womansh man, and a masculine or
mannish woman, are such abnormities as a
true man or woman would never meet in social
| fe.

IMPERLSlI.ABLE.

The pure, the bright, the beautiful,
That stirred our hearts IN youth,
The impulse to worldly prayer,
The dreams of love and truth;
The longing after something lost,
The spirits yearning cry;
The striving after better hopes
These things can never die.
The timid hand stretched forth to aid
A brother in his need, -,v
The kindly word in grief's dark hour
That proved friend indeed;
The plea for mercy softly breathed,
When justice threatens high;
The sorrow of contrite heart
These things shall never die.
The memory of a clasping hand,
The pressure of kiss,
And all thetrihes sweet and frail
That make up life's first Bliss
If with firm, unchanging faith,
And holy trust and high, al
Those hands have clasped, those lips have met,
Those things shall never die.
The 1sxi and the bitter word
That wounded as it fell,
The chilling want of sympathy,
We feel but never tell;
The hard repulse that chill the heart.
Whose hopes were bounding high
In an unfaded record kept
These things shall never die.
Let nothing pass, for every hand
Must find some work to do;
Lose not a chance to waken love,
Be firm and just and true.
So shall light that cannot fade
Beam on thee from on high,
And angel voices say to thee,
These things can never die.
In battle or business, whatever the game,
In law or in love, it is ever the same;
In the struggle for power, or scramble for pelf,
Let this be your motto-"Rely on yourself~
The victor is he who can ego it alone:"
--Sare.
Morning is lightest
Only when heaven is fair,
Beauty is brightest
~, Only when virtue is there.
-Perciual.
AS unto the bow the cord is,
So unto the man is women;
Though she bends him, she obeys him,
Though she draws him, yet she follows;
f, Useless each without the other!
-Lonofello1c.

COMPENSATION TO THE SOUTH FOR ITS SLvAEs.-
In various ways comes the intelligence from
the South that many of the Southern ex.slaves
holders confidently anticipate obtaining from
the General Government compensation for their
slaves in case Greeley is elected to the Presi-
dency. They recall his proposition to pay
$500, 100000 for them in July, 1864, and ask, if
he could make such a proposition then, what
would prevent him from agreeing 10 it now?-
The Galveston (Texas) Neaos, Greeley organ,
in recent issue says Though Mr.. Greeley
has been long and consistently the advocate OF
emancipation, yet he always admitted the con-
sttutonal right of the South to her slave prop
erty, the protection of which constituted the
most essential preliminary condition to the or
ginal formation of the Union. Everybody
knows the Union never could have been form
ed but for this solemn guarantee of slave prop
erty in the great mpact of union. Hence Mr..
Greeley has always advocated compensation for
this property He looked upon slavery an
evil and an insurmountable obstacle to the
prosperity of the country, and he advocated
the removal of that evil upon the same princi-
pie that private property is forcibly taken when
required in order to facilitate great public i'm
provments, but for which due compensation is
made to the owners"

GEMS OF THoUGHr.--A day of idleness tires
more than a week of work.
Love looks not with the eyes, but with the
mind.
Genius has limits; virtue has none, every
one pure and good can become purer and better
still.
A promise should be given with caution and
kept with care. 1t should be made with the
heart and remembered with the head.
There are men who, by consulting their own
inclinations, have forgotten that others have a
claim to the same Difference.
Truthfulness is corner stone in character
and if it be not firmly laid in youth, there will
always be weak spot in the foundation.
Memory is a patient canal, bearing huge
burdens over life's sandy desert. Intuition is
bird of paradise, drinking i'll the aroma of
celestial flowers.
Every human creature is sensible to some
infrmities of temper, which it should be his
care to correct and subdue particularly in the
early period of life.
