good many years ago that music hath charm:
to soothe the savage breast. He told very
palpable truth; for not anything is so refresh

the advent here of the English Opera Troupe

In respect Of its being the capital, and there

hands to establish kindergarten School |
We hope these efforts may find shape and en-
couraqement Do our readers know what |
sort of an institution is kindergarten School? |
We are not sure that We know well enough
TO be al authority in the matter; but it may !
be said, in outline. that such a place Of !
tuition is for the care and training Of very |

in the many lesser yet very important) graces
of life. Il is sort Of halfway place between
the nursery and the sohoolhouse. The
teacher who undertakes kindergarten at
tenpts to teach little folks how to be polite
and gentle and Of pleasant department toward
one another and how to be amused, ration
ally, and like incipient gentlemen and ladies.
1t is training and amusement combined. We
hope this lady may find her neighbors and
the parents OF Carson in general ready to give
erproiect an encouraging word. The Kinder
