Teachers Department.
Close OF school In District s.
WhiteOak TP.-AnOther Plea
for Music In Schools e

EDITOR NEws:-Our School in Moury-
town, District No. 5, closed on Saturday,
the 22d ult., when our Directors concluded
to have review of the classes and invite
the parents in the District out, to see how
the School had progressed Well, the in
vitation was given and the old folks came
out, bringing their baskets well filed with
eatables, and remained all day. All express
ed themselves highly delighted with the ex-
ercises, which were in the following order,
Reading, Arithmetic, Geography, Grammar,
Algebra and Singing. The Misses Marccns
ett and Euvrard, and Messrs Diehl and Par
rot, of the Bell Run Singing Class, gave us
some choice music, for which they have our
heartfelt thanks. ~. s.-,. T.. s..,r
And now, Mr.. Editor, this brings me TO
your correspondent .'17," and his last CON-,
municatien in regard to singing in the
schools. He seems to think he has settled
the question; telling of school where the
teacher, after teaching all winter, only sue
ceeded in benefting one schOIGrl One of
two things is certain, either the teacher was
incompetent, or the scholars very thick
headed Why, sir, if lived in such a
District, I would move outHas soon as posi-
BILE. lis not safe place TO live, where
they can neither singnor learn the art. We
here at the s'hub, believe in singing in
schools, and if ''17" had been at our exam
nation it would certainly have satisfied him
or any one else that it could be done. - l1
Now, sir, this is the way it went with US.
We had one hour every Friday for teaching
music, and the school never passed as good
an examination in all departments The
school has been wide awake and improving
all winter, and out of an enrolment Of 81
scholars we had 26 in the class on examine
ton day, and all singing; and they know
the difference between C, Sharp, and B,
Flat But then our teacher, J. II. Kay, is
a live man, understands his business, and
by the way has not used therod this winter.
The excuse is made that some cannot
sing; but believe the exception is rare,
and let 81" remember the poet says,
''The man that hath not music in his soul, g
Nor is not moved by concord Of sweet sounds
Is fit for treason, stratagem and spoilsss 80
Let no such man be trusted"
Why, sir, it makes the children happy
they sing on their way to school, and at
home, and thus scatter sunshine on their
pathway in life We think the man who op-.
poses in singing schools, is opposed to pre-
gress, and had better get out of the way or
he will get run over. sd
Let me close with a quotation from Tom
Moore: ...-r ~
80 Love, Religion, Music, al,-
The only blessings since the Fall
How kindred are the dreams you bringi
How Love, though unto earth so prone,
Delights to take Religions wing,
When Time or grief hath stained his ownI
How near to loves beguiing brink,
Too oft, entranced, Religion lies!
While Music, Music is the link
They both still hold by to the skies,
The language of their native sphere,
Which they had else forgotten here"

A special committee of the Illinois
Senate, to whom the subject WAS re-
ferred, have made report IN favor OF
the abolition of hegrandjury system.
They urge this on the ground that
the examinations by grand jury are
&c pate and one sided, and that
thus a person is often wronged with
out being able to defend himself
except by public trial. The com
mittees advise that persons accused
of crime; instead of being committed,
as now, for trial, be examined by a
Judge of the court of record, or by
three magistrates, who shall hear all
the evidence, and who may commit or
discharge.

DAIsY'S PUZZLES.


BY NARY N. PRESCOTT.
Little Daisy is five years old;
Hair tangle of red and gold,
Eyes like violets wet with dew,
Lips where pretty pearls peep through.
When the bells began to say,
''This is Washingtons birthday"
"Yes," said Daisy, very wise,
'He's the man who made the pies.D
When the Spring began to grow,
Daisy thought her flowers were slow;
Curious why they showed no shoots,
She pulled them all up by the roots.
''Why," she asks, ais one flower red?
Why has another yellow head?
Why isn't poppy sweet ike the rose,
Who carries thorn wherever she goes?
''Why is needle 80 hard to thread7
Why must children go early to bed7
Do potatoes have eyes to see how to grow7
Does the corn have ears to hear the winds blow7''
Only five summers has Daisy seen
The blossoms burst and the earth grow green;
And a curious puzzle it is to her. 4. -

burri 1.-The Nursery.

ed to go her own way, he would just
as soon have thought of using his
stick to flip butterfly off one of his
roses. Nettie knew this, and when
we threatened her, she would laugh
and say: 'No, he won'ti he won't

What my fathers present to Uncle
Jacob was, we never knew, as he has
been grimly silent on the subject from
that day to this.
The wedding-day passed, and the
fortnight's honeymoon passed, and
the bride and groom were to be with
us next day, (roads permitting). 1t
really was pleasant their coming SO
soon, for our curiosity had been raised
to the highest pitch, and had as yet
had nothing to allay it-not single
particular as to the young lady's age,
looks, manners, accomplishments, nay,
not even her name. My mother had
thought to write to Uncle Jacob, ask
ing a few questions as to these mat
ters, ''to show just little kindly in
terest," she said, but had not done it,
my father having looked things un-
utterable at the bare idea.
My mother, in her motherly heart,
began to pity the bride, as the hour
came for the carriage to be heard
crunching the frost up the drive.
''She is sure to be nervous, poor
thing. Mind you meet her kindly,
girls. It is not her fault about the
fortune, poor thing; L dare say she
knows nothing about it"

A lady in Halifax, N. S., desired the
removal of a dead cat, and was in
formed that she must go to the senior
alderman for the ward; he would
then tell the mayor; the mayor would
then tell the health inspector; the
health inspector would tell the police;
the police would tell the dead cat

remove the nuisance. This process

They stood at the garden gate.
BY the lifting of lid,
She might have read her fate
In little thing he did.
He plucked beautiful flower,
r Tore it away from its place
On the side of the blooming bower,
And held itagainst his face.
Drank in its beauty and bloom,
In the midst of his idle talk;
Then cast it down to the gloom
And dust of the garden walk.
Ay, trod it under his foot,
As it lay in his pathway there;
Then spurned it away with his boot,
Because it had ceased to be fair.
Ali the maiden might have read
The doom of her young life then;
But she looked in his eyes instead,
And thought him the king of men.
She looked in his eyes and blushed;
Shehid in his strong arms fold;
And the tale of the flower, crushed
And spurned, was once more told.
