The Young Mems association gave us a
lecture by Charles M. Bliss, Esq, of this
village, on Abraham LINCOLN, on Wednes-
day evening last, which Is pronounced by
everybody us one of the very best lectures
of most excellent course. If anyone ex-
pected to hear from the lecturer a string of
common place remarks too customary on
the lecture platform, or to listen to re-
cital of Mr.. Lincoln's old jokes he was dis
appointed, for there was remarked alb
sence of everything of the kind. On the
contrary the lecturer gave a highly finished
literary production, abounding in crisp
sayings, careful determinations, and apt H.
Illustrations. The lecture was of highly
popular character, and was most entertain

Report of the President of the boar d
of Education.

To the Voters cfMe Rutland Graded School
District:
1t will soon be my duty to lay before
you the usual annual report of the condi-
ton of your schools. For reasons, which
will by and by appear, l anticipate the
now, proposing to add some statistics at
the close of the current term.
So far as have been able to learn, the
various schools of the district have been
reasonably well conducted during the year
just about closing. We have, of course,
had some teachers who were not entirely
equal to the grave responsibilities resting
upon any, who undertake to mould the
characters, as well as the intelligence, of
future men and women. Until the aggre-
gate mass of teachers, from which we have
to select, shall contain much larger pro.
portion of persons thoroughly trained for,
and thoroughly in love with, their wcrk,
we must expect to find more or less of in
competency in the management of our own
scho Dis. So far as have been able TO dis
cover, we have suffered no more than our
this incompetency the average of the
teachers seems to be fully up to the average
elsewhere, while we have some both In the
higher and in the lower departments
especially in the former. who are not ex-
celled anywhere. But it is possible to have
excellent teachers, or, at least, excellent
material out of which to make teachers,
ard yet, for various causes, fail to have
thoroughly good schools. School build
ings may be SO uncomfortable, gloomy, in
convenient, unhealthy, or otherwise OBJ
jectionable, as to thwart the endeavors of
the best teachers to keep model school.
This is such an old subject of complaint
in this community that | will not waste
time or words over 1t here. cannot, how
ever, forbear expressing the wish that the
voters of this district were obliged, forty
of them at time, to spend six hours a day
for five successive days in then Itermediate
school-room, for instance, for verify be-
lieve, that rather than undergo the same
experience a second time, they would
promptly vote to build suitable school
houses.

children at school, parental grumbling at

lations with their own convenience, paren-

SKETCH OF Paul B0TNToN.-Captain
| Paul Boynton, who almost succeeded
in crossing the Straits Of Dover in his
I life saving dress, has always been re-
markable for his loYe Of the sea, which
was only equaled by his love of all
/ kinds Of adventure. From his early
/ childhood he exhibited an intense de-
sire TO be on oE near the ocean, and
showed a great fondness for aquatic
sports, especially for the art of swim
1 ming, in which he excelled. When
only twelve years old be saved a man
from drowning aad continued in the
work he had so well begun until he
completed his twenty.sixth year, up
10 which time he had rescued no less
than seventy persons. After the
ErancO-German war, Capt. BOynton
returned 10 this country and organized
life-saying brigade to operate dur
ing the bathing season at Atlantic
City, New Jersey. This was the mln
destined to develop the capabilities Of
the newly-invented life-saying dress
which has just been brought into such
wide notice by bis recent exploit. This
dress is composed of pair of panta-
looms aud a tuuic made of India-rub-
Der, furnished with five tubes which
may be inflated at will. This dress,
which may be donned in less time
than it would take to put on a pair OF
gloves, will sustain person IN the
water for an indefinite period, and at
the same time keep the wearer perfect
ly dry. The public are already familiar
with the particulars of BoyDton's trip
to Europe in November last, when ne
was dropped in the sea, some ten
miles of the irish coast, which Do
reached after night of great peril

REJECTED SUIToHs- A writer in the
Home journal says: :" ! woman neve- quite
torsets the man who has once loved her She
may not have loved him; she may, indeed,
have given him the No instead Of the Yes be
hoped for; but the remembrance that he de-
sired a Yes always Softans her thoughts Of
him, and would make him, were he reminded
OF 1t a friend forever. There may be girls
who make ;est OF discarded suitOrs; but
they are generally very young, and the WOO
ing has been something that did net betoken
much depth Of tenderness. There are mer-
cenary offers, too, that only awaken scorn
and hate in the woman wooed for money and
not for herself but really to have touched a
man : heart is something not 10 be forgotten
whil5 she lives. Always she remembers how
his eyes looked into hers; how, perhaps he
touched her hand within his, and how her
heart sched when he turned away without
that which she could not give him. She
loves some one else. Some other man has all
the truth of her soul-always has and always
will have-but she cannot forget the one
who turned from her and went his way and
came no more. She Is glad when she hears
OF his success, grisved when she knows that
he has suffered. and when some day she
hears that he i married-she who has her
self been married long years perhaps; shs
who, at all events, would never have married
him-iS she glad then: I DO not know. \
woman's heart is very strange thing. ]

Oh, yes; and il his wife pretty aud nice /?
And then she says to herself that he has

ScoLDIyc.-Scolding Is habit very easi-

is an unreasonable habit. Persons who once
