AT a meeting of the St. Paul Chamber
Of Commerce Tuesday, as We learn from
the Roneer-P Press, Mr.. Tleston called at
tention to the Scotch granite recently dis
covered Just outside the limits of this city,
and Mr.: Thompson, a practical quarryman
was invited to speak to the Chamber in re-
gard to it. He said he had been in the
Scotch quarries for % years and he con-
sidered this stone better, than the Scotch.
1t could be got easier, and in immense
blocks, one piece thirty feet long, 9 feet
wide and feet deep, having been taken
from the quarry. He claimed that the
stone was really perfect, and was the same
indestructible material as that found in the
Egyptian tombs. The stone works very
easily and is susceptible of the highest pol
ish. The consideration of the subject was
postponed for one week.

Perhaps you would like to know
To whom and where I'm going.
To Butler, Mo-, am directed,
And therefore shall not fail,

I'm an article in the San Diago (Cal.)
World on the public schools of that city, we
find the following notice of the Principal,
Prot, Ira Moore, lately Principal of the
Normal School at this place:
Professor Moore graduatedat Bridgewa-
ter, Massachusetts, in 1849, and subsequent
" became a teacher in the same school.
After teaching there for several years he
attended Yale College, and in 1855 gradu-
ated in the scientific department of that
college. In 1856 he opened the Normal
School of Chicago, and from 1857 to 1851
he taught in the State Normal University
of Illinois at Bloomington. In 1866, he
removed to Minnesota, and taught in the
State University Of that State from 1867 to
1869. In 1869, he was appointed Princi-
pal of the State Normal School of Minneso-
ia, located in St. Cloud, which position he
held until 1875, when, stricken with the
mania for emigration, he turned his face
toward our golden shores. We consider
that our Trustees were fortunate in secur-
ing the services Of so competent man, and
the patrons of the school can see that the
education of their children is entrusted to
q man who has spent his life in teaching
the young idea how to shoot.'
