There is no death The stars go down
To rise upon some fairer shore.
And brightin in heavens jeweled crown
They shine foreverrore.
There is no deaths The dust we tread
Shall change beneath the summer show
To golden grain or mellowed fruit,
Orrainbow tinted flowers.
The granite rocks diss,rganise.
And feed the hungry moss they bear;
The forest trees drink daily lite
From out the viewiess air
There is no DEATH The leaves may fall,
And flowers may fade and pass away;
They only wait through wintry hours
The coming of May day.
There is no death! An angel form
Walks DER the earth with silent tread;
And bears our best tioved thing away,
And then we call them dead"
He leaves our heart all desolate,
He plucks our fairest. sweetest flowers;
Transplanted into bliss, they now
Adorn immortal bowers.
Make glad these scenes OF sin and strife,
Now sings an everlasting song
Around the trees OF life.
w mere CT lie sees u Slulie loo DrlEnT.
Or heart too pure for taint and vice,
He bears III to that world of light,
To dweliin Paradise.
Born unto that undying life,
They leave us bnt to come again;
With joy we welcome them the same,
Except their sin and pain.
And ever near as, though unseen,
The dear immortal spirits tread;
Fur all the boundless universe
Is life--fhere are no dead!

Getting up an Examination.

" A traveller, whom we afterwards
knew, once arrived at a village inn,
after hard days travel. and being
very tired, requested room to sleep
in, but the landlord said they were en-
tirely full, and it was utterly impossi-
Bile to accommodate him-that his
wife had to sleep on the sofa, and him
self on the floor; but that he would
see what his wife could do for him.
The good woman, ON being applied to,
said that there was one room which he
might occupy, provided he would agree
to the conditions, viz: to enter the
room late, in the dark, and leave it
early in the morning, to prevent scan
dal, as the room was occupied by a
lady. This he agreed to. About two
o clock that night an awful noise was
heard in the house, and our
friend, the traveller, was found
tumbling heels over head down
stairs. On our host and hostess reach
ing the spot, and inquiring what the
matter was, the traveller calculated as
soon as he was able to speak: "Ch,
Lord, the lCoBsdR's deadP' L know
that, said helandlady, but houo did

u. p. COLONY IN VIRGINIA.-Speak-
ing of the new colonies of United
Presbyterians who have gone to Vir-
ginia, local paper says: Scarcely a
year ago was the correspondence begun
which induced the Rev. Jas. Y. As
henhurst, after thorough inspection
of the lands of Mecklenburg, to de-
eide that here was the best place for
the starting of the Southern efforts of
United Presbyterian Church. Week
by week we have beep chroni-
cling sales of farms to United fsesby-
terians, and the cryis still they come.
Evidently we have in our midst the be-
ginning of greatand important move
ment, the full results of which future
generations will realize. A peaceable.
law abiding, God-fearing, Bible-loving
people are coming among Us. Such
citizens are thrice welcome. Their
presence in Virginia is a pledge of
Christian progress and an augury of
the good time coming for Virginia.
The United Presbyterians hold now
close On 100000 Of land in Mecklen-
burg and Charlotte counties. They
quietly but firmly adhere to the faith
of their fathers, and pursue the even
tenor of their way, loved and respect
ed by all who know them.

each district. We have already seen
how much depends upon the efficiency
of the district boards. They are, in
fact. the bases upon which the system
must rest. The people of each dis
trict should feel an earnest interest in
that election and should be aroused to
a due sense ofits Importance. To this
end the3county Superintendentsshould
especially address themselves, and the
friends of public schools, throughout
the State, should see to it that the
proper influences are set in motion to
stimulate the people, in every district
in the State, to place three of the very
best men in the district in the Board
of Directors. This part of the york
must, by no means, be neglected.
1t is not within the purpose or pres
cribed limits of this communication to
present an argument in favor of the
law. To direct attention to its imme-
diate requirements and to invoke
prompt measures for its faithful exc
cution, is the only present design.
Regulations regarding the more specific
application of the law, in its details,
to the operations of the system, will
in due time eofficially communicated
to the county Superintendents, and by
them to the District Directors and
Teachers.
The law, no doubt, has its imperfec-
tions and, possibly, some Objectionable
provisions. Nevertheless, it embodies
the essential elements of an efficient
general system of Elementary Schools.
1t aims to establish nothing higher-it
will be satisfied with nothing less
Whatever defects may be found in the
law can be remedied by future legisla-
ton, as experience shall have pointed
them out. The Legislature has done
well, and, if supported by correspond
ing action on the part of the people, the !
next one may be relied on for such i'm
provement as may be found to be neces-
sary or desirable.
Give the law a fair trial. 1t will |
soon become Its owninterpreter. Open |
the Schools. They will plead their /
own cause with triumphant eloquence.
Put the system into operation. Its
fruits will ere long be its best vindi-
:ation.
Let the people respond promptly to
he call of the Legislature, and Ten
lessee will not much longer find occa-
non to blush for the ignorance of her
children.
JNo. M. FLEMING,
State Superintendent.

SALT ON WHEAT. - Having read
that saltwas good to put ON wheat, l
thought last spring Iwould tryit so on
three acres Of my wheat | put one
barrel of salt, narrowing it in immedi-
ately after sowing the wheat. When
the wheat was shout an inch or two
high saw that it was full of chinch
bugs; but a slight shower coming
about that time, the bugs all disap-
peared, and think that it was owing
to the salt. TIE part of the field on
which the salt was, ripened several
days before the other, and the straw
was much stronger and brighter. But
the good effect did not stop here, for
on threshing the grain | got six bush
els more per acre, the berry plumper
and brighter and the price 129 cents a
bushel higher. Yield on the unsalted
wheat 20 bushels per acre; on the salt
ed 26 per acre. The soil on which my
wheat was planted is sandy one but
my son had good success in putting it
on a clay soil. Several of my neigh
bors have tried, and are well satisfied
that il is frst-rate for wheat.

Shooting Permiskus.

The Brownsville States fires this
random shot at the Modocs, and at
some politicians. Like gun aimed
at duck or plover, it may bear wide,
and kick the owner over:
Captain Jack is not a gentleman.
He, went for Candy in a way brave
men despise. But it was silly in Can
by to intrust his scalp in such irres-
ponsible hands. All talks with wild
Indians is mild species of of insani-
ty. 1t does not effect the moral na-
ture of the Indian, and is sometimes
exceeding disastrous to the white gen.
tleman doing our part of the CONVEX
sation. If in the goodness of God, We
could be permitted to send g. F. Train.
or Wendell Philips, or the men who
got up the Greely race for Presidency,
or back pay Congressman, to talk
with the noble Red Men, we would
feel great confidence in the all perva-
ding fitness of things. We could spare
these illustrous nuisanees and not re-
pine at the deep damnation of their
taking off. Their scalps ought to be
lifted anyway, and the noble Red Man
could do it to perfection.
But the noble Red Man ought to be
wiped out, because he too is a nuis-
ance. Snufed out like candle.

PHOTOGRAPHIC FEAT. "A San
Francisco photographer has succeeded
in obtaining picture of a race-horse
going at its highest speed. A local
paper states that the artist procured all
the sheets to be had in the stable, and
with these made a rejecting back
ground. Over this Occident was
trained to trot, and everything was
then in readiness for the trial. The
great difficulty was to transfix an i'm
preston while the horse was moving
at the rate of thirty-eight feet to the
second. The first experiment of OPEN
ing and closing the camera on the first
day left no result; the second day,
with increased velocity in opening and
closing, shadow was caught. On the
third day, the artist having studied the
matter thoroughly, contrived to have
two boards slip past each other by
touching spring, and in so doing to
leave an eighth of an inch opening for
the five hundredth part of second, as
the horse passed, and by an arrange
ment of double lenses, crossed, secured
a negative that shows Occident in full
motion-a perfect likeness of the
horse. The space of time was so
small that the spokes of the wheels of
the sulky we're caught as if they were
not in motion. This is probably the
most wonderful success in photograph
ing ever yet achieved.

ity over the subject, and declares its
purpose to enforce the law strictly in
every locality, and to supervise the op-
eratiOns of the system throughout all
its details, the responsibility and au-
thority of the several counties, in all
respects essential TO their protection
and properly qualified independence,
are recognized and preserved. Even
the school districts are empowered, in
their own discretion, to enlarge their
school facilities beyond the scope of
county provisions. The school taxes
with the exception Of the interest and
State poll taxes-are to be paid into
the treasury of the county where col
lected, and to be disbursed solely for
the beneft-of the schools in the coun-
ty. There will be no accumulation of
school funds anywhere, so as to subject
them to any other liability to pecula-
tion or loss, than attaches to the ordi-
nary revenues of the State or county.
Thus. while the authority of the State,
is asseriedin the system, local interests
are fully respected and guarded, and
stimulus thereby given to special effort
on the part of the counties.
For the establishment and mainten-
ance of this general system, the State
has provided funds, as follows:
The perpetual fund, amounting to
S2,512, SEQ, bearing interest at 6 per
cent. per annum, from Jan. l, 1873,
payable semi-annuaHy, on the first days
of July and January ineach year-the
first installment of which will be due
the first day of July next;
A poll tax of one dollar upon every
male inhabitant of the State, subject
thereto;
A tax of one mill on the dollar upon
all property subject to taxation.
The revenues derived from the first
two sources will be paid into the State
Treasury, and be semi-annually appor-
toned to The various counties, accord
ing to scholastic population, en- the
first Mondays in October and April of
every year. That derived from the
tax upon property will be paid into the
Clarksville weekly chronicle. (Clarksville, Tenn.) 1873-1890, 1873-05-10

There is reason for believing that these
counties will sufficiently amend their
action in July. 1t is to be hoped the
auspieious beginning already made will
be followed up by all the remaining
counties in the State, at the July terms
of their courts. The auguries all give
promise of such results. Intelligence
from the different divisions indicates
the springingup ofa widespread, earnest
sentiment in favor of public schools
under the new auspices, and the re-
cords of the courts that have taken
action, show that the counties of the
East, the Middle and the West, are
vying with each other for places of
honor in our educational annals.
The election of County Superinten-
dents is most important duty of the
County Courts. Thirty-four counties
elected Superintendents at the April
term of their Courts. The selections
in most instances are of the most salts
factory character, and indicate that
the magistrates acted with a due ap-
preciaton of the very responsible
duties of the position. The law re-
quircs that all remaining counties
shall elect their Superintendents at
the next July term. These elections
must be made, since they will be essen
tial to their organization ofthe system.
After what has already been said, it
need hardly be added that the position
of County Superintendent is no sine
cure. On the contrary, the very ma
ture of the duties implies earnest, per-
sistent work, and, withal. capacity to
give such labor intelligent direction.
Incompetence or Incidence in County
Superintendent will, to great degree,
practically nullify the law in his
county and cheat the people out of its
benefits. Too great care, therefore,
cannot be exercised in making the
selection, and the best qualifications
possible should be secured in every in
stance.
On the first Thurday in August
next, an election will be held in every
school district in the State for the
choice of district difectors-three in
