THEMAEYLAND SCHOOL SYsTEN.-GovernOr
Bowie. in his message 10 the Maryland legisla-
ture, recommends a revision OF the school system
of that state, and advises the establishment OF
high schools, as a connecting link between the
common schools and colleges, in every county.
or at least in one OF two adjoining counties. and
a more generous provision for thesuppOrt of the
cclorcd schools. The school taxes paid by the
ColOTcd people themselves, he justly observes,
amount To so small a sum a to be practically
worthless" for the purpose. while the best inter
e-tS of the state. with the marked good behavior
Of this class of her population, dictate that the
opportunity of at least a rudmental education
should be afforded them" The message further
advises a discOntinuanceO Of the policy of m akiug
donations out of the state treasury to private and
scCtarian institutions.

Stop TO WErGH." One morning an

team in the street and had good stick
in his hand.

countryman, still more enraged at his as

"Oh, you gave them to me did you ?''
" Yes, sir. / threw in handful for
the children to crack, said John, laugh

"Well, now, if that amt young

ures relaxing into grin as he saw
through the matter.
Much hard talk and bad blood would
be saved if people would stop to weigh
before they blame others.
