Fremont's "wooden bird cage" has un-
dergone some improvement. Half way up a
floor has been laid, approached by a stair case
outside of the cell-thus keeping prisoners
and "casuals" apart. The advantage will be
appreciated by those whom fortune may favor
with the indulgence of the hospitality gener-
ously offered by this little model institution. ,

they will have a return to the good

they don't refer to the time when
their imbecile President, Buchanan
allowed that prince of Democrats,
Floyd, to rob all the arsenels of the
country, scatter the army, DC, that
treason might hatch unrestrained.
The Democratic times before the
war were good, very good - for
rebels.

er and George Rufer in the murder
of Herman SchillIng. He says Geo.
Rufer proposed the murder on Sat
urday night in his fathers bar-room,
and the three hid in the tan yard,
waiting half an hour before SchilIihg
came in. He lit lamp and went
into the stable to groom the horse.
They followed him, and Rufer struck
him several times with stick, knock
ing him down twice. Then his
father took five pronged fork and
stabbed Schilling two or three times
in the bowels with it, and also in the
leg. This killed him. Rufer drag
ged the body into the yard and pro
posed to put it in the vat, but said
he had better put him in the furnace,
so he could not be found. This was
done, and they all went home.
This confession was made to Cor
orer Maley to night, reduced to writ.
ings, and signed in the presence of
witnesses.

notice but one tardy mark in the
morning.
The fall term was commenced by
the same teacher but at the close Of
four weeks a severe illness prevented
further labor, and Miss Emma Car
penter was hired to teach the remain
ing eight weeks. The school was
visited near the commencement of
the eight weeks the scholars Seemed
TO be attentive, and the teacher COM
petent and willing to teach them. /
went to visit the school again but
found that the school house had been
entered the night previous and depre-
dations committed making it unfit for
use. The School Register shows but
one mark against the name of Frank
Ormsby, and that for absence one
half day.
DrsT. No. 2.-The summer term Of
ten weeks was taught by Miss Ella f.
Silsby, from Lunenburg. The teach
er was without experience and did not
seem to understand teaching, but ev
identity intended to keep a good school
and some of the scholars made GOOD
progress.
The winter term of fourteen weeks,
not yet completed, is taught by Miss
Lucy Wells. The district expected
much from the employing of a teacher
of so good qualifications and expert
ence in teaching, and they have not
been disappointed. The school has
been successful, and the thoroughness
in teaching will be permanent help
to the scholars in the future The
names Of twenty-nine scholars appear
upon the Register, and the average
attendance will probably he twenty
five.
Only one public examination of
teachers has been held during the
year and that was better attended than
most examinations have been, and
to those who attended, l give my sim
cere thanks for their presence and the
interest they have manifested in the
welfare OF our schools.
Something has been done during
the year to introduce the new series of
school books. / obtained supply
of the new books so that those who
chose to procure them could
have chance to get them at intro

availed themselves of this opportuni-
ty, and the books, though making at
first some confusion Of classes, have
had a healthy and beneficial effect
upon the schools.
