We clip the following from the Decatur Re
publican:
Our Hartford correspondent writes us that
Hartford is terribly convuised over the school
question. Prof. Lamb, their teacher. is .
greenbacker, and last May the two greenbacl
members Of the Board assisted him in getting
contract for the school another year at 515C
increase OF salary School meeting night the
taxpayers turned ont and by large vote an
nuled the contract and refused to raiss tho
money by tax for an increase Of wages, and q
decided majority favored reduction from last
years salary. At that moment the battle be-
gan, and the streets OF Hartford have echoed
with hundred combsts since that fatal night
Lamb swears he will hold the new Board to his
old contract, and many taxpayers Of the dis
trict declare that an injunction will forbid
him teaching the school, and the School Board
paying him any wages. Excitement has been
so high that threats have been made to burn
the school house if Lamb is suffered to open
school in September

One OF the most successful and benign COM
binations ever effected Is that of the six med
icinal oils of which Thomas Eclectrlc Oil is
composed This matchless compound not only
possesses remedial efficacy of the highest order,
bnt, inasmuch Is it contains no alcohol, its in
fuence is not weakened by evaporation, which
is the case with very many oils OF doubtful
efficacy, which have no alcoholic basis. 1t is an
incompatible specific for affections Of the
throat aud lungs, remedies hoarseness and
feebleness OF the voice. and is superb remedy
for that harassing, obstinate and consumption
breeding malady-catarrh. Swelling OF the
neck, tumor, neuralgia, lame back, rheumatism,
piles and other diseases which can be affected
by outward treatment, yield to its operation
with greater prcmpttude and certainty than to
that OF any other remedy, and, when used in
wardly, it is equally eficacous. Dysentery.

Written For The True Northerner.
WILLIAM CULLEN BRYANT

Written for the True Northerner.
Is the sweet voice hushed? Will IT sing no more
AS Of old time, when it stirred to the core
All hearts attuned to the song Of the spheres
TO the flowing rhythm Of swift circling years .
HIS whose muse with the summer heats could
burn,
Or ring in the voices Of Winter stern:
Breathe in numbers soft Springs inspiring Laws
Or weave into song Autumn's dreamy haze.
The brooklet's ripple, the murmur Of waves,
We've heard in his apt smoothly gliding slaves !;
The fragrance OF fow'rs was fresh to the sense
And scarcely one knew how it came. or whence.
AS he painted earth's bloom in living prime,
And the cataract's roar, In words sublime.
We heard, with a strange, admiripg awe.
When their dash and foam in his page we saw !,
Natures favored child was he, and she strung
HIS Tyre with her chords, whence melody sprung.
AS though there the soul OF Poesy slept,
And woke as il spirit hands DER them swept.
Though his dust in some other form may live,
The noble mind that expressions could give
To inanimate matter. space has left
In the world OF thought, OF this gem bereft;
With brillisnce, which can inner lives so thrill
All Bryant thou soul In minstrelsy rife,
In fullness OF years to the other life
Gone, with thine intellect still strong and fair,
Thy grand flights Of fancy who now shall dare
Wilt thou send on beams Of the evening star
Inspiration living, from heights afar
Thou hast reached, and drop on some chosen
one
Thy vesture, the Muse on earth for thee spun
Or must pages never more for us glow
With the sacred fire, which never burnt low
In thy lamp but brighter and brighter grew
Till Death his black shadow over it threw?
OF New England the et-prince and pride,
Americas boast: thou has lived and died:
And of thy sweet stanzas, none, first or last,
Can ever be lost in the misty past.
All Will live and shine in the coming years
Aad thy name be embalmed in heart-warm tears

FROM the horticultural College.
From Our Own Correspondent.
Harvesting on the farm has Just commenced
Wheat Will be much better crop than an
one had supposed before the harvesters 60
into it. Several of the students are excused
for few days to go out to work in harvest
Farmers say they find the boys number on,
harvest bands. and that they prefer them tc
the street-corner loafers who are never salts
fed with board and wages, and who always
growl over the hard work. One man said he
went to town for men, found plenty idle and
growing. but couldn't hire man at the going
wages In his own words. The - law
brutes won't work for they rather steal" II
seems strange that such class should ever
have arisen under our free labor market sys
tenn. 1t is something new, to be sure to see
students leaving classes to work in harvest
but must be good indication OF the success
OF industrial schools. Students have ALWAYS
been stigmatized as fellows too lazy TO work.
IL we can see the men who study. workingmen
1t Will heighteu our ideas of educated men.
and induce the masses to seek an education.
we know that the idea OF students doing any
work that requires Physical strength is still
scoffed at, but when We see men coming from
all around to hire students for harvest help
We conclude that the students are of themselves
doing much to live down the sneers and SCOTS
OF people who look on them as something to
be kept IN showcase least they get dusty
The regular Wednesday afternoon lecture
was given by Sec Baird, subject, Manners.
There has been a constant stream of visitors
coming to and going from the college for the
last week, owing to the large number Of
strangers in the city to attend the Teachers
meeting and the Democratic State convention.
The Changers OF Ingham county will hold
their Harvest Festival on the college grounds
some time this month. The farm department
has just purchased a champion combined
mower and reaper. Prof. Ingersoll meets the
seniors at the barns, each morning, to give
them practIcai lessons in judging OF the value
OF different varieties OF stock. Each student
marks in tabular form the value Of each of
the points OF an animal. The paper is then
taken, looked over and corrected by the pro-
lessor, till each student can judge intelgently
on the value OF an animal. This need is
especially seen among farmers at agricultural
fairs when the judges award premiums form
a general idea OF what an animal ought to be
or too often from knowledge Of who owns
him merely. Such judging is unsatisfactory
and keeps many from making exhibits or striv-
ing to improve their stock. or course no good
farmer would allow his stock to run down or
would keep poor stock because he couldn't get
premiums that he thinks he ought to have, but
II there is any object in holding exhibitions OF
that nature is to lead farmers to braed better
stock. 1t creates little healthy competition.

as We do in other cases, to stand or fall ON its

they do not deal too freely in mere PERSONAL
