About Schools.

about their eductation that IL 80 deplora-
bile ~ to demand comment and severe
criticism. There is no trust confded TO a
people ~ important As the education of
their children. Whether that trust he
exercised within The sacred walls Of home
or by teachers who arc paid for the dr'y,
II still remains more important than any
Of the mere temporal concerns Of our
self-apparont that no argument is required
TO prove the position to he true. Parents
all know the truth of the statement, yet
they have grown so apathctic that they
give no thought or care to the actual, real
needs of their progeny.
1t is considered by many that # the
work is done. Now, while the honesty
which prompts them To remuneratc
teacher for labor worthly done is very
cninmendablr. il should he remembered
that teacher who desires honestly to
discharge his duties eau only do 80 10y re-
cciving something more than mere pas
siye encouragement from his patrons.
The truth j., that the teacher is the least
interested of the three parties to the con
tract which l. entered into when "a school
is begun. The fathers, mothers and the
children themselves. ar. by odds the most
Interested Of all concerned; and above III
things else il is important that the teach.
or should receive the moral support and
encouragement Of those who patronize
/ him.
! II is to the interest of those who pay
their money for the training of the young
that they should see it well done; that
they should enquire into the methods Of
the instructor should go out aud see for
themselves what Is the nature of his dis
cipllne; whether he is impartial in the
exercise of his authority; whether he and
his pupils are progressive. IL is not fair
to the child to place him under the control
of an individual who IN large measure
shapes his destiny, and then To- become
ohlivlons of his very existence as it were.
School teaching in one sense is n means
Of making money: hut the teacher who
! appreciates to the fullest extent the high
and holy nature of his calling, looks far
/ beyond the filthy lncrc that il to I've accu
INFLATED by the practice of his profession.
| TO that grandrr, nobler reward which will
/ fall to him if he cUnscicntiou~ly discharges
/ the delicate trusts coufidrd to him. He
/ feels that he wants the people to hold up
/ his hands, Ia realize to the fullest extent
/ what he l. TRYING to do. He 'ca''> them
! to visit his school to see aud enquire for
I Themselves, and if liz deserves curnrncnda-
tion give It, If criticism is proper To- give
that too.
II the people of the town would think
of these things-if they would only real.
izr how necessary it ito build mp valuable
schools in our midst, and if after thorgnf
and realization nf these necessities, they
would cease 10 he indifferent and act
from the promptinGS of their awakened
good sense, onr material and moral pros
prrity would bc increased hundred fold.
These Thought, are only thrown out a. a
hint tn the wise. Hereafter we may write
more fully Oh this important question.

The Donaldsopville CHIEF come

The Donaldsonvilie CHIEF comes
to the front, too, with an attempt to
defend the Constitutional Convention,
in retaining State Treasurer Burke,
after bouncing all other officials. OF
course the editor of the CHIEF has too
mnch good sense to deny that Burke's
retention iii Office was the result Of
and understanding between that off :
cial and Wiltz, which was: that
Burke was to keep ont of the rae, for
Governolshii.
Major Burke, through his paper,
the New Orleans Democrat, says he
will resign if the Baton Rouge con
ventiDn declares it to be the sense of
the party. No matter hat the State
convention may say about it, or
whether it says anything, the people
will naturally keep thinking who is
running this State-Wiltz aud Burke,
or themselves Webster Tribune.

SATURDAY,
THE JOLLY OLD PEDAGOGUE.

| GEORGE ARNOLD.
Twas jolly old pedagogue, long ago,
| Tall and slender, and sallOw and dry;
His form was bent and his gait was slow,
4 His long. thin hair was white as snow,
! But q wonderful twinkle shon6 is his eye
And he sang every night as he went to bed
-, Let us be happy down here bellows;
The living should live though the dead bt
| dead.'
He taught his scholars the rule of three,
Writing and reading, and history, too;
! He took the little ones upon his knee,
4 For a kind old heart in his breast had he,
And the wants of the littlest child ht
Learn while you're young" he often said
| "There is much to enjoy down here be
| low;
Life for the living and rest for the dead!"
Said the jolly old pedagcgue, long ago.
With the stupidest boys a,e was kind and
| cool,
Speaking only in gent1est tones;
The rod W. hardly known in his school
Whipping him was barbarous rule,
And too hard work for the poor old bone
Beside it was painful, he sometimes said
I'VE should make LITE pleasant down here
| below,
The living need charity more than the dead, 2
Said the jolly old pcdagogne, long ago.
He lived in the house by the hawthorn
lane,
With roses and woodbine over the door:
His rooms were quiet, and neat and plain,
But spirit of comfort there held reign,
| And made him forget he was old and
poor;
"I need so little," he often said,
"And my friends and relatives here be-
| low
Won't litigate over me when am dead"
Said the jolly old pedagoguc, long ago.
But the pleasantest times that he had, of all
Were the sociable hours lie use to pass,
With his chair tipped back on his nefghbors
wall.
Making an unceremonious call, ...
Over q pipe and friendly glass,
This was the finest pleasure, he said mM
OF tho many he tasted here below;
Who has no cronies had better be dead!"
Said the jolly old pepagogue, long ago.
! Then the jolly4aold pedagogue's wrinkled
face,
Melted all over in sunshiny smiles;
He stirred his glass with an old school
Chuckled and slipped, and prattled apaee,
I'LL the house grew aalerty, from cellar to
tiles;
4 I'm pretty old man. lie gently said,
=" have fingered long while here below;
But my heart is fresh if nay youth is fed -
Said the jolly old pedagogue, long ago.
He smoked his pipe in the balmy air,
Every night when the sun went down,
While the soft wind played in his silvery
hair,
Leaving its tender kisses there
On the jolly old peoagoguc's jolly old
crown;
And feeling the kisses, he smiled, and said
"'Twas a glorious world down here be-
low;
Why wait for happiness till we are dead ~
Said tho jolly old pedagogue, long ago.
He sat at the door one midsummer night,
After the sun had sunk in the west
And the lingering beams Of golden light
Made his kindly old face look warm and
bright,
While the odorous nigllt-wind whispered
"rest!"
Gently. gently, he bowed bis head,
There were angels waiting for him I
know;
He was sure of happiness, living or dead,
This jolly old pedagogue, long ago.

INVITATIONS OF GENIUS.

CHARLOTTE F. BATES.
A hawthorn bough in full and snowy bloom !;
Strange birds that fitted ever by the ship;
Built on a broken branch, a little nest
Upon whose eggs brooded the parent bird !;
Things nnfaniliaE floating on de tide
All ttese to great Columbus gave the sign
Of the new land he was abuAt to touch.
Such sights ar. manifold with thee, my soul
Such hints are breaking on thiac eager eye.
Strange fancies brood or else go winging
past;
Fresh foraas and growth Of Natures Life ap-
pear;
Things old as time, get to the old world aeE;
The new expressions Of accustomed thought
Thou art already OH q new worlds verge,
That mighty world is Genius-ah but know
Thou cans't expect no better fate than his
Who found that other poverty, neglect
Follow the fate of him who finds world
Whether it be OF matter or of thought.
Not now. not here, will be thy claim allowed
Not long years hence when thou hast lett thy
clay
And ali thy shackles mouldef with its dust,
Then shall men know the greatness of thy
work,
Tho littlencss of those that lived with thee.
Through mortal hurts immortal glories
come
Push on to keel upon thy new~fonnd shore.
Audit take possession in thy S0yereigns name!
