modern Dcmosthenes, Oiceroes and Anthonys-
either Susan or Mark-met to do mighty battle

which the contestants crossed swords, was,

wrong" Mr. Wheeler and Miss Flora slosSon
commended manfully yes, manfully will apply to
the arguments of both--for the affirmative; while
Mr.. Harvey Wattles, and Miss Mullins replied
with all the facts, logic and eoquence they
possessed for the negative. The question was
ably handled by both sides, but the judges saw
fit to award victory to the Affirmative. These ex-
ercises carried on as they are with the utmost
good feeling can not but be productive of great
improvement.

SALEM WIS. Nov. 13. 1875.

SALEM WIS.,. Nov. 13, 1876.
Nature has put off her robes Of green and
decked herself In the somber tints of au-
tumu. "The melancholy days are come the
ssdest of the year" sings tie poet; but there
is also much to cause the heart to rejoice
The crops are mestly gathered and the
farmer now sees the fruits of the seasons
toll and The reward Of his industry. There
is still considerable corn In the fields yet
unhusked, but the work is being pushed
rapidly forward and the crop. which Is fine
one, will soon be secured.
Salem Station is rapidly getting to be q
very thrifty little yiilege. The stores are
doing gate an extensive business, several new
houses have been erected during the year
while the large quantity ofhui!ding materials
now on the grounds plainly indicates that
others contemplate building. The pnblic
library also is we'll patronized and is doing
much good.
Some valuable improvements are also be-
ing made at Wilmot. STr. Sabin Is raising
and thoroughly repairing building which
is to be occupied by Mr.. Wheeler as furLi
ture store. The new NJ. C. Church IL rapidly
approaching compile ton, and when finished
will be the finest church In the county outside
the city. This'building 10 % by 46, built oil
brick and contains basement for lectures
sunday -school purposes &c. and an audience
room proper. This room will be well finish
ed and furnished, end lighted by stained
glass windows. Tie house will be provided
with a large bell, and ernamented with 8
stesple and spire. When completed the
building will add much TO the appearance Of
the place.
The election passed of quietly. A very
large vote was polled, and resulted In Q
complete Republican victory by large
majority. Salem has no cause TO be ashamed
of her record IN the present campaign.

WHEN SCHOOL LET'S OUT.


HENRY T. STANTON.
When school let's out at rundown time,
And shadows long up hillside climb,
With leap and romp and laugh and shout,
In Kilt and amock and roundabout.
By grain-feld fence, through pastnre-grass,
A foot worn way, the scholars pass;
And bright faced elf and brown-faced lout
Go heart glad home when school let's out.
sit and watch, where, white and slow,
The mistress moves in grace below;
A little young girl with folded hands,
With lov-down locks in wide, brown bands,
Who floats In light where deep shade lies,
With sweet, sad look in lake-blue eyes;
sit aud watch and hope and doubt
know not what when school lets out.
Were SO young as they who knew
The mild maid-rule, just there below,
Would b 9 glad az they who pass
By grain field fence and pasture-grass
Would be glad the home-tonnd way,
Aud laugh and shout and romp as they'
It might be so in roundabout,
But not as now when school let's ont.
Some day-how coon cannot tell,
But some day soon, know full we'll
My feet shall fall with beat as slow
The greenland way that hers do go,
And shall feel my great heart rise
To tender looks from lAke-b' ne eyes
And there shall be no fear, no doubt.
Fer hand in mine, when school let's out.

New YORK, March 7.-About four o'clock
this morning fire broke out in the house Of
the Aged of the Little Sisters Of the Poor, a
large four story building with two wings al
Bushwick avenue aud Chestnut street, Viii,
liamsburg. The fire originated IN the south
wing, aud before the aged inmates were aware
of its presence the flames had made consider
able progress. A panic was caused among the
inmates who rushed hither and thither through
the building Until they became exhausted or
suffocated from smoke and sank down. The
police rendered valuable assistance and carried
out number of old people who had become
unconscious. There were, lS5 old people in
the building at the time, and 10 one part of 1t
their egress had been cut off by the flames and
smoke, SO they went up to the roof utterlug
piercing shrieks. The smoke and flames which
shot up completely hid them from view. The
6remen and police, it is said, succeeded In
rescuing all who were on the roof, but there
were number who were sufocated and buried
ia the ruos. Michael Cummings, one of the
inmates, Is years Of age, threw himself from
third story window, and was instantly killed.
