ellis of all time, against our solitary and
unstable opinion.

Mr.. EDITOR your last issue was in
serted an article termed "a novel mode of
punishment" which is not novel in thi G
one particular, that it is entirely false, as
far as concerns lone or any of our school
marrns," and took place only in the active
brain of the inventor. The next time your
reporter goes out for sensational art
Gle, let him seek some less hur ted prey
than school teachers, who have, unfortu :
nately. always been held responsible for
every story that youthful ingenuity could
invent, and parental credulity believe.
If paren is were to take a real interest in
the affairs of their children, they would
visit the schools, know what was taking
place, and how they were getting along
and then overy wild story would not be
believed, and they net labor under the
reproach of wing added to those trials
which their own experience will tell them
are indeed hard to bear.
