SALEM, April u, 1875.
Mr.. BRIGGS Having made very pleas
ant visit to Pewaukee, during my vacation,
I thought perha ps the teachers of the coun-
ty might be interested to hear of the work,
of our friend Mr.. North, who labored with
us at Wilmot last fall.
Reaching Pewaukee in the afternoon of
March 25th., repaired to the schoolhouse
and found Mr.. North glad to see an old
friend and his school busily working away
Quite number of the scholars were being
examined upon set OF questions used at
the State Examination last summer.
In the evening l had the pleasure of meet
ing the family of Mr.. Nortn at his home.
Friday morn I saw one of those admirable
general exercises, consisting, that morning,
In the extraction Of the root of number
containing five figures in the root; by nv
watch the first slate was brought forward
IN one minute and the rest followed like
rain the entire school took part in this
exercise.
Following this exercise was reading

snort stanza in poetry, all being marked
according to the reading The classes in
Mathematics showed themselves to be far
ABOVE the average in the work they were
doing. The work in Penmanship was very
remarkable, out of a school of sixty there
were out two or three who were not fine
penmen, as shown by their specimens.
Mr. North took me into one of the prima-
~ rooms where he had charge OF the writing

Raphael Semmes is a man without a

and TO build up a Confederate Govern
ment, but the empire whose orner-stone
Was slavery has disappeared beneath the
tide of time, leaving him disconsolate
orphan. He now advises the South not
to take part in the Centennial celebra-
ton. He is like man who attempted
10 murder his mother and having failed,
now hates to have her birthday celcbra-
ted. 1t is rebuke to his treason.
The life of Semmes should be warn
i 6 to his couItrymen. Born in 1910,
he was appointed midshipman when
but q lad Of IS, and was successfully
honored with promotion until 81 years
OF age. lie then turned his back on
the old flag, took command of con-
tederate cruiser, and made war on the
Government that had educated, fed.
clothed and given him position for over
thirty years. Old, obstinate, un1ep ent-
ant a conspicuous relic Of the lost
cause, Semmes is one Of the most melan-
oholy figures in recent hlstory.--Stats

SMALL FRUITS ON THE FARM
10 advise farmer to grow small
fruits FOR market, at the same time
carry on his farming operations, is
something we will not do. But
there are hundreds and thousands Of
farmers who have a natural taste
far fruit growing,and to whom farm
ing has become a drudgery,-
especially that class who are not
strong, to whom a change is desir-
able and necessary. To these we
would say, ifyou are living within
three or four miles of good home
market, and. cities not far away by
rail or steamboat, a change to fruit
growing will be both profitable and
pleasant. The first thing to do, is
to rent out most of your land, or let
it out on shares, reserving your
home, and say ten to twenty acres of
land for your fruit growing opera
tons, and go at it systematically
and energetically, you will make
more money from ten acres of land
than you have ever made from your
farm, and that too, with less real
hard work. Plant only Of leading,
well-tried sorts that are hardy and
productive, give them good cultiva-
tion, and plenty of mulch, and you
will reap large reward, and too,
this kind of work makes less hard
work for the women folks, and
besides. supplies the table with fruit
daily throughout the year. There
are farmers vino have no liking for
growing fruit; but as a rule, these
have sons Or son who have, and
who do not like farming. These are
very anxious to keep their sons on a
farm, away from the city. To such
we say, let such son have the use
of a few acres to grow small fruits;
and the longer he is engaged in it,
the more he will like it, and conse-
quently his attachment for home
strengthened, and, too, by this the
table is supplied with luxuries you
would not dispense with after one
seasons experience. There are so
many inland towns and cities not
supplied with fruit and vegetables,
that we advise the readers of this
paper to take advantage Of such
openings.-Snall Fruit Records.

In every case to muster up

CATCHING AT STRAWs.

It is time honored maxim, that the
drowning man will "Catch at straws'' in
MS efforts to save himself from browns
ing. Whether the cases are parallel, or
not, | can not help thinking Of the
above maxim when I read the criticisms
which the Telegraph makes upon every
thing that comes within its reach
When an Editor is so nearly drowned
that his editorials consist only of cap
tious criticisms upon all that he hears
and sees, then indeed his paper ceases
to please, ceases to be useful and must
surely decline in popularity and clrcu-
lation. The readers at the Dime Read
ings, and the president pronouncer and
spoilers at tho Spelling Match are
censured, principally because they
speak too low as judged By one who
admits his sense Ct hearing somewhat
obtuse, while ninety nine per cent of
the audience at The Dime Readings
claim to hear distinctly what the
readers say.
Next the Telegraph pounces upon an
article in the Educational concerning
the Journal Of Education, and hauls
over the Goals, the editors Of that
Journal for publishing such an "un-
grammatical awkward" expression as,
1--WE preparing the postage" Now
the fact is the article alluded to was
not printed in the Journal. but was
simply Circular TO the county superip-
tents, and furthermore, we claim that
there is nothing "ungrammatical and
awkward in the expression alluded to,
and ask the Telegraph to prove it's
statement.
The next thing which disturbs the
grammatical stomach of The Telegraph
man, is the position Of the apostrophe
in the expression Teachers Sala ries,
This, says the Telegraph, coming from
the New York School Journal, through
the County Sur erintendent, ought to be
correct, but We believe it ia not"
Admitted that it ought to be correct.
does the ought to be correct, rest any
heavier upon the editors Of the New
York School Journal than upon the
editor of the Ielegraph? Are the
Journals of Education of this country
the educators of the people to the ex-
tent that the newspapers of the
country are?
Are the editors of these Journals so
superhumau, that they are above mis-
takes and carelessness. Aud again, how
unfortunate for the Telegraph that
while il was attempting to correct its
neighbor, it made the same mistake!
To be sure the editor wrote the
words Teachers Salaries, but tie type
setter put it Teachers Salaries and the
editor in reading the proof, LETT 1t

cafeessness on the part of both typo
and editor. Now is it not altogether
