The Oldest known poem on spring was
written by a person named Solomon, who
belonged to a family Of poets, his father,
David, having written several volumes of
the most sublime poetry that ever emo
mated from man. Solomon'G short poem
on spring is a model for oil our ambi.
tious young poetasters, and as such we
commend it to them. II any of them
can write anything as good we will be
delighted to publish it. For their benefit
we print this old poem, which we came
across in a much neglected volume the
other day,

The rain is over and gone;
he flowers appear on tho earth;
The time Of the singing Of birds is come.
And the voice Of the turtle is heard in our

The fig tree puttsth forth her green hgs.
And the yints with the tender grape give a
good smell,
Arise, my love, my fair one, and como away!

Co.Rduent,on the Sexes

The following, taken from the cata.
logue Of the Sulphur Springs high
school, Major j. M. Richardson, presi-
dent, is full of good common sense,
and is becoming the prevailing .senti.
ment OF the best educators of the land.
The ideas are we'll expressed, and We
commend them to our readers:
This is the idea of the family, of the
Sunday-school and of the church.
Why should brothers and sisters be
sent to different schools? The ad,
vantages OF the system, as to grading,
study aud manners, are overwhelming
arguments in its favor; unfounded and
unnatural prejudice must give way.
ITO insure modesty,n says Jean Paul
Richter, 81 would advise the educating
Of the two sexes together, for two boys
will preserve twelve girls, or two girls
twelve boys, innocent, by that in
stinctive sense which Is the fOrerunner
Of matHred modesty. But | will guar
antee nothing in u school where girls
are alone together and still less where
IVY . uic.
This subject has been much discuss
ell of late years, and now the leading
colleges of Europe and America, with
the fall approval of the highest tone
OF thought in religious and educational
circles, have thrown open their doors
to both sexes; and, what Is Better, the
result Is a successful One--successfu in
every aanaa Of tha word Tho uunpos-
ed dangers have proved myth, and
the advantages are everywh re appar-
ent to those who enjoy the privilege.
Each sex exerts a stimulating and a
restraining influence upon the other;
stimulating to the highest reaches OF
excellence, restraining from all that ia
coarse and unseemly. Manners and
habits-language, style and sentiment,
are all wonderfully elevated, purified
