brave and patriotic people than the efforts thus
made to stignatize their heroic efforts to save
their State. In one sense their canvass was
aggressive as ours was. They met the plum

their corruption before the people. They de-
voted themselves, as did our people, heart and
mind, to the great work of saving their State,
and they appealed to all honest voters to aid

The Performance last Evening

The attendance at the Opera House
last evening to witness the performance
OF Miss Fannie Davenport, and the
Fifth Avenue Theatre Company, of
New York, in Shakespeare's finest
comedy of GAS You Like It," was not
as large as it should have been. The play
is full of jolly fun, from the first TO the
last act, and no one who admires the
legitimate comedy can fail to appreciate
it. The character of Rosdlind was as-
sumed by Miss Davenport, and if the
great author could have been present he
would have seen that the character was
correctly portrayed, or in other words
that it was a correct representation OF
the merry Rosdii.d that he had in his
minds eye when he wrote the play.
Miss Davenport is beyond doubt the
finest ROsdii1d, and has better idea of
what the character is than any other
actress upon the stage. Her p srfect
abandon and nonchalant manner imme-
diately won the sympathy of her audi
tors, and she was repeatedly applauded
and called before the curtain three times
Her rendition of the cuckoo song was a
rare treat
The company that supported her was,
it is almost unnecessary to say, complete
in every respect and the entire perform
ance was enjoyable in all its parts.

WHAT THE PEOPLE SAY

F0r We Gazette.
Mr.. EDITOR There has been much
discussion within the last few days about
the qualifications of persons elected to
the Board of Public Education. Let us
inquir for moment with the duties of
these gentlemen. According to law they
appear to be a Board of Finance, and
general supervisors. They DO not examine
persons making applications for teachers.
1t appears to be the duty of a committee
appointed by said board to place teachers
who have been examined in certain posi-
tons, or grade as principal, &c, the
most Important feature being overlooked
by the board, because "A teacher has pass-
ell an excellent examination does not fit
sad teacher, to govern, command and
direct large school. Education does
not endow anyone with common sense.
Many teachers have excellent educations,
and are failures as as teachers. Some are
too hasty, some are Uindtured, many of
them have their pets, amongst the schol-
ars, causing trouble, and creating bad
feelings, with smile and kissfor some,
and lrolCn with a harsh word for others.
Such things should not exist. ANY per-
son placed i'll charge ofa largeschool such
we have here should have besides educa-
ton good judgment euen tempers and
great patience, remembering that they
were once children. There is nothing
like love, affection and gentleness towards
the young, that will lead them to be obeA
dent, and learn them to have respect for
those placed over them. This is impor-
tant, and should not bo overlooked by
those placed in authority. There should
be some lessons learned by both teache rs
and directors. If they would take the
trouble to look into the Friends school,
or the Catholic school There they will
find law and order, no complaining, all
these little petty difficulties adjusted, in
a pleasant way, always seeking to win
the heart and good feelings of both child
and parents, causing the child to progress
Us it should. | trust the new,Board will
not overlook this important matter as it
is not the officer or soldier that passes the
best examination, that makes the best
General. They may lack the most need
full thing-cool calm, patient, decisive
judgment. OLD Boy.

The Board then proceeded with the
work of organization, VIM. FL. Cloward
was reelected Secretary and Treasurer
and James Lang janitor, without opposi>
tion.
On Col. Grimshaw's motion the
finance committee was authorized TO

Ancient CASTLES,

What appeals to the imaginative and
reflective powers of man more than the
ruins of some ancient ivy-covered and
forsaken castle? Poets have invited the
muses. to help them weave into verse the
legenderic chivalry and bravery that his
tory accords to their former owners and
occupants. Painters have Wed with each
other in portraying the grandeur OF
their solitude and decay. But is not the
premature and social wreck of thousands
of young people, annually, theme that
should appeal much more keeniy to the
reflective faculties of man? DR.. r. V.
Pierce, of Buffalo, n. Y, pre>cribes his
Golden Medical Discovery in such at
10 itions with the most gratifying results.

and will generally be able to prescri be
medicines especially prepared for each
individual case that will speedily restore
nervous vigor and perfect health.

sands of others, have either been cured
