SONNET.

Perhaps the lady of my love is now
Looking, upon the skies. A single star
Is rising in the east and from afar
Sheds most tremulous lustre: silent nigh
Doth wear it like jewel on her brow
But see, it motions, with its lovely light
EDWARDS and onwars through thes,
depths of blue,
To its appointed course steadfast and true
So dearest, would l fain be unto thee
stesdfast foreVer,-like yon planet fair.
And yet more like art thou jewe
rare.
Oh brighter than the brightest star to me
Come hither, my sweet love; and
will wear
Thy beauty on my breast delightedlv.

WARRINGTON, D. c., Dec. IL.
The House will not get all the appro-
priation bills through in the tn ee weeks
before holiday adjournment, but it will
make more progress than has been made
Of late years. If Secretary sherman's in
fuence is patent in the Senate that body
will accept the bills almost exactly as the
House passes them. The Secretary, like
every other sensible man, believes that a.
the early attempt to resume specie pay
ments is fixed fact it will be better Ia
make it with Congress and the people, az
far as possible, free fiom unnecessary 70
litical excitement. That is narrow view
Of the subject which sees only that purely
financial legislation is now dangerous
Substantial and hearty agreement upon re.
ddeed appropriations will encourage the
people to believe in long promised relief
and thu, do much TO kill off those uneasy
politicians who keep the country in dis,
content and confusion. ..
Ex-senator Morrill,, Of Maine, yesterday

sCHOOL HYGI1nE

A great. deal Of attention is being given
/ by Sanatarians to the subject Of school
hygiene. And surely the impo tance q
the subject cannot be exaggerated. II y
capable of proof that the fatality and VIDE
spread prevalence Of many epidemics are
promoted by faulty SANITARY arrangement.
Of schools, and that the constitutions o.
many delicate children are irretrievaoiy
broken down by too long confinement IN
over crowded, badly ventilated school
rooms. y,
Observations conducted in the State Of
Michigan prove that in the school rooms
of that State there is difference OF from
IL to 20 degrees in the temperature OF the
air at the floor and of that three feet above
that the heads Of the children are in an
atmosphere 16 70 Is degrees warmer than
that about their feet, which is the directly
opposite condition from what reason and
experience suggest as the proper one. And
how often is it that this faulty SANITARY.
arrangement is aggravated by the wet
shoes in which the little ones must sit
quietly for q to 8 hours coHsecutively ?
Is it surprising that throat and lung affec>
tions are engeudered under such-not e1s
ceptional - circumstances? Or that
typhoid fever, diptheria and other diseases
which are attributed to bood poisoning
should find their appropriate indus in our
over crowded, badly ventilated school
rooms.
Several years since, the Medico-Legai
Society Of New York, composed Of some
Of the most learned lawyers and physicians
of that State, suggested that no child under
10 years Of age should be confined in the
school room longer than 8 hours day.
That confinement, alone, for a longer
period, would impair the minds and bodies
of most children. Partly upon that ground
but chiefly because of the want Of school
room accommodations, the Board of Educa-
ton of New Castle adopted the plan, with
the youngest children, of having only one
session of 8 hours daily-boys being taught
by the same teacher in the morning and
girls in the afternoon. The plan has, We
believe, worked successfully. 1t certainly
has numbsr of excellent reasons to sus>
tain it; for besides its healtbfulness it
economies teaching force.
Cur experience with public schools leads
US to know that the pressure for educational
facilities is greatest in the primary depart
ments. As the grade ascends the number
of applicants for seats dimishes. Now, it
is not more difficulty for teacher to in-
struct 100 pupils. half in the morning and
the other half in the afternoon, than to
teach the same so both morning and after
noon, and the healthfulness of the children
would be promoted by the shorter confne>
Ment. But, to return to the question of
school hygiene whilst 1t would be i'm
possible to have thorough ventilation with>
out rebuilding, there can be no doubt that
great improvements on the present unscien-
tifc arrangements can be made without
great expense and we commend the sub
ject to the attention Of the Board of Eda-
cation. .-.4t.

The verdict in the Dodson case fully justi-
fies the views expressed by the HERALD at
'he time Of the alleged outrage. Alone OF
all the press, We refused to believe the
monstrous tale, and took the ground that

malignant lying knave. We refused to join
With our neighbors in intensifying the ex.
