FIRST IMPRESSIONS OF OUR PEOPLE.

It is matter of considerable surprise
to older residents that people from the
Atlantic Slope appear to believe they
havepassed beyond the bounds of civil
cation on arriving in our Territory. Why
this should be so, it requires but little
thought to discover. The impressions
of the newcomer, are derived from OBJ
servation of sparsely settled communi-
ties in the East, where people follow on
in the ruts worn by their ancestors, and
are living in enjoyment of their present
lot, rather than in anticipation of better
things in the future. They do not
realize that the population of our Coast
is mainly comprised of hardy, adven-
turous, enterprising and industrious
class of pioneers, hailing from almost
every State in the Union, and bringing
with them the better characteristics of
the district they represent; that here
they are thrown in contact with people
who may excel in some other special
knowledge peculiar to another latitude,
and that by this means the aggregate
OF popular intelligence is greatly ad-
vanced. This being true, it must be
conceded that visitor is very apt to

TEACHERS CONVENTION.

The official report of the proceedings
of the Teachers Territorial Convention,
appear in another portion of to-day's
paper, and will doubtless be read with
interest. Although the attendance was
not as large as was anticipated, an ex-
cellent beginning has been made for a
Territorial Institute, and it is expected
that when the objects Of the organiza-
ton become better known, an interest
will be enlisted in some degree COM
measurate with the importance of the
movement. It is admitted by all edu-
Gators, that our Territorial law relating
to public schools, contains glaring i'm
perfections, and that such amendments
as have been made from time to time,
have served rather to weaken than to
strengthed it in important particulars.
But this result is not surprising when
it is considered that the law has been
merely compiled from old enactments,
which, in many instances, were wanting
in the essentials that experience has
demonstrated to be of practical utility
in maintaining thorough and compre-
hensiye system. The best means fol
determining the object and scope of the
law, is doubtless by just such an Or
ganization as has been found by the
present convention, an institute having
stated times for it's sessions, aided by
auxiliary county organizations, at which
the teachers and parents can compare
views, suggest improvements and devise
such modes of imparting instruction as
observation and experience may prompt.
In this manner all that is good will
finally he sifted from the chat, and the

bill which will be in harmony with it.
self and productive of the best results
when it becomes law.
The subjects of discussion at the
present session all bear direct re.
lation to the great object of securing
such changes in the existing law as ex-
perience has demonstrated to be neces-
sary. The full time was occupied, and
had the session been prolonged to the
end of the week, we doubt whether the
interest would have in any degree
abated. This indicates the necessity Of
the organization, and of at least semi
annual meetings. A wide field of dis
cussion is presented, relating to the
methods of teaching, the general
management of schools, end kindred
topics which in two days. session,
with so much preliminary labor before
it, could not be reached.
We congratulate the friends of educa.
ton that SO good a beginning has been
made. An interest has been awakened
which will carry the work steadily for
ward. County institutes will be organ
lied, modelled after the Territorial or
ganization, and when the next session
convenes it will be as no new and un-
tried experiment, but as one Of the per-
manent and progressive aids to educa-
ton, and it will then be in position to
command the respect and cooperation
of the law-making powers.

In the town of Rutland, the realestate Of
railroads constitute about one-fortieth of
the grand list. Taxes, to be sure, are
raised at the rate Of so many cents on the
lollsr, but the object aimed at is to raise
a given sum. That given sum will, of
course, necesaitate greater or lesser tax,

But aside from this, the argument adj

of towns have no quarries, and, receiving
no benefit from their taxation, should joir

We publish elsewhere, this morning,
communication, signed "Franklin," in ref
erence to the action of the Bellows Falls
reform club in voting to admit the playing
of certain games at their rooms, and to
open the reading room during certain hours
Sunday While we always listen with re-
spect to the words of our esteemed friend
and correspondent, we must be permitted
to doubt whether he has the beat of the ar
gument in this case. His denuncialion
seems to be directed against the playing OF
the games, as well as the Sunday opening
of the reading room, and he will pardon us
for saving that innocent amusements have
always been considered, and justly so, as
great aids in the way of reform; and, So
without regard to the Sunday question, we
think the action OF the club was right and
proper. AS to the Sunday question, that
is another matter, but one, however, 10
which the argument is not all on one side
but, for the present, we will not discuss
this question.

Playing Of Games-The Sunday Open
ing of Libraries.

Editor Rutland Globe 1t is announced
in the Bellows Falls Times of last week,
that the reformed club reading room,
voted to admit to the room, the games of
chess, checkers, dominoes, and backgam-
mon, also voted, that the reading room be
opened Sundays, between a. m. and p.
M" Such was the action of the Reform
club. The word reform, has come to mean
almost anything but real improvement the
old definition of "change from worse to
BETTER" has been reversed now, with
some politicians, and with this club, it ap-
pears to mean-downward to soar, and
backward to advance" This action of the
club must be viewed with amazement and
deep regret by all the friends of order and
virtue, by all who venerate the institutions
of christianity. While portion of the
people in that fourishing village, are pro-
viding at great expense, houses for public
worship and securing the preaching of the
gospel others are opening place for de-
moralizing games. The one is promoting
the prosperity and happiness of society,
the other is jeoperdizing the highest inter
efts OF that community. l would CON-
mend to the serious consideration of that
club, the able and appropriate arguments
of DR.. Loring, Gen. Hawley, and others,
at Philadelphia in vindication of the sane
tity of the Sabbath and the importance
of its strict observance. The decision of
the question, In relation to opening the
centennial grounds on the Sabbath, was
hailed with JOY by the true friends of
christianity. Very few immoralties and
vices are so subversive OF true prosperity
az the dissertation of the holy Sabbath. IL

which will result in the resembling of the
above votes, FRANKLIN.

Carl Schurz is doing some hard work in
Ohio, and will continue to do so until the
close of the canvass. In the course of his
epeeches-and, indeed, that is their main
topic he urges the necessity for civil ser
vice reform, and says; " Hayes,as presi-
" dent, will emancipate oflice-holders from
"party thraldom, and he will thus create
" for himself an army OF friends against
which the party satraps will avail moth
a." ing, and should congress refuse to sup
sport him, an appeal to the people will
secure congressman OF different senti-
ment." As Schurz is on the stump at
the especial request Of Governor Hayes
aud as he makes it convenient to pass
his Sundays at Columbus, the home OF
Governor Hayes, it would seem fair In
ference that upon this subject he speaks
what he knows to be the opinions of Gov
ernor Hayes.
