of Mr.. Zimmerman before the Carroll
County Teachers Association, appears on
the fourth page. II will be read with in !.
terest, especially his views upon the duty
Of the teacher to look well to the moral
development Of the youth committed to
his charge. This is too important mat
ter TO be intrusted to teachers alone. The
parent or guardian is wofnlly derclict in
duty who does not instil into the child
moral principles, with the first dawnings
Of its reason. II is no less the duty Of
the teacher to cooperate with the parent
in the moral training Of his pupil It not
unfrequently happens that both parent and
teacher abandon the moral culture Of chill

whereas, there ought to be three-fold
combination Of parent, teacher, and church,

OBITUARY.

Mas. SARAH :. CURREY, wife Of Jeremiah
Currey, of New Windsor, Carroll county, and
daughter Of the Rev. Curtis Williams, sweetly
fell asleep IN Jesus, October llth, 1874, in
the list year other age. Our beloved mother,
for many years, was soroly afflicted but the
last two years of her life were marked with
intense suffering, her disease being a dis.
tressing affection of the brain. Everything
that medical skill and loving attention could
do, was done but alas us the disease de.
yeloped itself we too plainly saw that il was
our duty TO bow and kiss the rod. She had
for many years been trying TO live in the fear
aud love OF God, but did not find satisfactory
peace until during her illness, when she laid
all upon the altar To her sin was a subject
OF dread she desired 10 be the Lords alto.
gether, and enjoyed many happy moment.
when her mind was sufficiently clear TO realize
the iullness Of God. Well do remember,
while sitting by her bedside, Of her saving,
VIII my children meet me in Heaven
Then the words of Revelation come up "a
comfort me, saying. "and God shall wipe all
tears from their eyes, and there shall be no
more death, neither sorrow nor crying; neither
shall there be any more pain for former things
are eall passed away Glorious contamination,
and shall see her face again, not only the
vision, but the reality, with heart purified
from all sin,-safe with the loved ones al
home. On returning from the grave in which
her casket was laid, to await the sound Of tho
trumpet | felt sad ,-nnspeakably sad still
reloleed IN the thought that she was happy,
and after battling, perhaps only for short
time, we will meet beyond the river; for we
know
Another is taken home,
Another has gone to rest;
But oh how sad seems every place
Once by her presence blest.
Bnt she has gone to yonder sphere,
All pure aud free from sin,
Sorrow, sickness, pain or death
Can DO more enter therein.
But when the ties that bind us here
BY Deaths cold hand are riyen.
Oh, may we all be gathered home,
