Criterion OF Success.

Every teacher can easily measure his
success by asking simply, "Do my pupils
love their Sork more or less thxn when
they entered my room; are they more
eager for, and delighted with, iuforma
ton than they we're, or the contrary! Is
il the bell which calls them to recitation,
or that which dismiss them to tbes

they care more os less for books than

Good For Missouri.

A late financial circular from Gwynne
& Day, bankers, New York says: =:
"ln Missouri, the result Of the almost
unanimous vote regarding the investment
of the school fund has caused motto ca
BILE improvement in the State bonds,
which were 95 at the close of the month
against 925 to 93, at the date of our last
circular. This school fund amounting
to about 81 100000, has hitherto been
invested in United States Governmen,
bonds. But it is now to be re invested in
the bonds Of the State, a resolution for
that purpose having received the necessa.
ry vote, both in the Legislature and by
the people. The legislation in regard to
this school fund which is held so sacred,
and its Investment in their own State
securities, indicate faith in these bond.
which cannot fail to inspire moro public
confidence in these as we'll as other local
securities Of Missouri"
