Observation-Disclosures OF the Trouble.
Huntington, L. L. on the north shore, is one OF
the finest villages in that romantic region, and has
an undying fame from the mysteries OF Fort Hill as
published In the HERALD last Monday. The eauca-
ti0n Of the masses is an important matter with the
people, but Just now, day before the reopening
OF the schools, there is war among the trustees,
and the people are divided IN their sympathy. The
facts OF the trouble are these:--At one time Mr.
Hoyoke was requested to resign the principaship
as he was deemed incompetent and he did

Iogg. of wallingford, Conn.,, who soon resigned
on account OF internal difficulties which
II was believed that he resigned on account of the

dislike TO Mr.. Qnimby Tor some unknown cause. At

get $7oo and Miss Gilderslceve $500. They
asked for time to consider, and 1t was given to them
word was received. Dr. Banks said they had de-
clined. A committee was appointed TO negotiate
with teachers and Two New York Xs sa avn0 were o en-
the taxpayers. Various complaints were made
against Mr.. Quimby but investigation proved them
to be false. Banks sheppard and Jones refused to
sanction the work Of the committee, and went beg
gtng TO Miss Downs and Miss Gldersleeve to accept
the positions at increased salaries. The committee
met again, when Jones withdrew to prevent bust
ness being donc, the favorites having again dc
cllned, but asked more time to consider, which
was granted Bigotry and iavoriiism control the
matter Tho objection to the New York ladies
arose from their being American Catholics the ma
jorty OF the Board believing that those only OF
orthodox faith should be enfplo Jed. Miss Downs
and MISS Gldcrsleeve are '.egotiating with other
parties and VIII only accept II forced TO do The

Last Sunday evenings temperance meeting was
interesting and encouraging beyond any of its
predecessors. The hall was filled with a deeply
interested audience. Rev. j. r. Wright presided,
and read an earnest Plea for Prohibition, written
by one Of our lady-workers In the cause. We
hoped to publish 1t this week, but il inevitably
goes by until our next issue. lie also gave
notice that a pledge had been prepared, and
would be offered FOR signature toward the close of
the service. The meeting was then thrown open
for volunteers, and the remaining time principal
" occupied by the young mon, several of whom
expressed themselves in hearty sympathy with
the movement, and avowed u determination TO do
all in their power to bear it onward to success.
A motion was made, and carried unanimously,
that the ladies be not only requested, but en-
treated, 10 continue therin interest in and direction
OF the moyement-the three months for which
they originally entered upon the work having ex-
pired.
The pledge was then brought out, and rising
OF eighiy persons at once came forward and vol
unfairly subscribed their names large pro-
portion were young men, from whose action, if
well taken and faithfully maintained, priceless
blessings will flow The deepest feeling pervaded
the audience, and all hearts seemed overAowing
with gratitude that the field proved so much
ripper Tor the harvest than the most sanguine had
even hoped
Next Sunday evening we look for season Of
even greater interest, and hope the hour will be
devoted to jubilee service, in view Of the hope
ful aspects Of the movement.

Mrs. llowE, wife Of the Agent Of the Vermont
Central Railroad in this town, died on Thursday
last, September 18th, at the residence Of her hus-
band. She has been for year afflicted with the
painful disease which at last terminated her life.
After having in vain sought relief from eminent
physicians abroad she returned home a few weeks
since to die among her friends and in her own be-
loved home She was a lady Of remarkable ex-
cellence Of character. Modest and unobstrusiye
in her style, her real worth was known most
fully only 10 her most intimate friends She
was devoted member of the Methodist Episco-
pal Church in this village and cndeared herself
greatly 10 her Christian associates. She was a
kind neighb)r and friend, and was one Of those
rare ladies who found the measure of her ambi-
ton in the sacred duties Of her home, and the
pleasure Of her life in its graceful amenities and
in the quiet circle Of social enjoyments. She
moved among her friends and neighbors and in
her household, with gentle dignity and grace and
leaves behind the most pleasant memories in the
hearts Of all her friends
