The 3:l5 p. N. train will also make COL.

School Books.

Having examined large number OF
the school books which are candidates
for introduction into our schools the
coming year, we are glad to note a
general improvement, especially in the
readers, in regard to the contents,
graduation, and mechanical execution.
Some few Of them, however, are badly
graded, which seems to be the general
fault found with the new American
readers, the series now in use. Others
have objections in regard to the selec-
ton of pieces. 1t has been said that
good book and a good woman are
excellent things for those who know
how to justly appreciate their value.
There are men, however, who Judge
of both by the beauty of their cover
ing. In the Appleton reader, as is
the case with some others, we find the
covering somewhat attractive, vet the
contents are not of that unimpeacha-
bic type which should characterize the
selections in n book for school use.
Among the many other Objectionable
Ipieces through the series, is one which
teaches the temperate youths of Yer
mont Tor any section where they arc
used) that they should take wine When
offered them at table; and many Other
things which are wholly inappropriate
in our country schools. There are al
so places, which, when read, carry
with them ideas that are grossly OBJ
scene. Such should not be allowed
in the school room. In examining
books we can but say that in schoo
books, the same as in life, ofttime.
those OF the least value are dressed il

The Franklin is another reader W.

gar phrases, and it contains too many

An interesting game of ball was
played on the Finnegan grounds last
Saturday between the second mines OF
Hyde Park and MOrrisyille. As might
have been expected the game resulted
in a score of IL to IL in favor of the
former club.
Francis Merrill, little boy who
lives with Leroy Jones, while examin-
ing a birds nest in birch tree, about
80 feet from the ground, had the mis-
fortune to fall, injuring both arms and
receiving other injuries. DIR. Hendrick
was called and attended the wounds.
We call attention to the adver-
tisement of the Portland steamers in
another column. These steamers run
in connection with the Z. & O. Rail-
road and parties going to Boston will
find this one of the pleasantest routes,
especially at this season of the year.
-Forepaugh's mammoth menagerie
and circus have made arrangements to
visit and pass through this State in
August or September. They are now

bition, and includes ~ of the finest
trained elephants in the world, and 81
cages Of wild animals.
The invitations for the grand ball
at the American House on the glorious
Fourth are issued. The well-estab-
lished reputation of Mr.. Kelley as Q
provider of festivities and palatables
will need no reiteration to insure fol
this occasion a splendid success. Pau
