Superintendent's Notes.

Tuesday, Dec. 23.-Visited the following
schools and teachers of Rome district: Morley
Hill, f. Beloud, teacher, pupils registered 10,
present IA; Village, Emma Chamberlin,
teacher, registered II, present IA; Union,
Chas. Allis, teacher, registered 36, present 80;
also Rome Borough, w. III. Brown, teacher,
registered 81, present 40; Myersburg school,
WysoX, o. Tanner, teacher. All the schools
seem to be succeeding well. f. Beoud,
though teaching his first term, is we'll likedb by
the pupils, and is thorough and progressive.
Heard fine grammar class in Village school.
Noticed fine colored wall maps in Myers
burg school, drawn by pupils, and prepara-
tion for the same in Union school. The
Borough and Village schools are only few
rods apart, and shOnld be united and graded.
The township and the borough might each pay
its own .teacher as at present, and then have
all the advantages of Il graded school.
Mr.. Brown, though an excellent teacher,
cannot do ali that is necessary with SO large
school, and advanced classes.

If Xmas day on Thursday be,
A windy winter ye shall see;
Windy weather in each week,
And hard tempests, strong and thick;
The summer shall be good and dry,
Corn and beasts shall multiply;
That year is good for lands to till;
Kings and princes shall die by skill;
If child born that day shall be,
1t shall happen right well for he;
OF deeds he shall be good and stable,
Wise of speech and reasonable,
Whose that day goes thieving about,
He shall be punished without doubt;
And if sickness that day betide,
1t shall quickly from thee glide.

come"
His funeral will take place on Friday, at

too frequently ignore those whose ciroum-
stances will not permit them to extend these
exceptional courtesies. In their intercourse
with their parishoners they effect an air Of
superiority, and patronize those whom they
consider beneath them in the social scale,
while they fawn upon and fatter the wealthy
and fashionable. This, more than any other
of the mental qualities they possess, impairs
the usefulness Of the clergy. The poor
whom they neglect or patronize are insulted,
while the rich whom they fatter are disgust
ed and hold them in contempt. It is we'll to
assert ones self as man in any society, but
to seek for hattery is contenptible. A man
should be q man in every circle Of society,
no matter what his position in life
may be. He can lose nothing by self
assertion, no matter where he may be placed,
and this is one thing the ministers generally
would do we'll to heed. It is very evident
that they have much to learn before they
will have attained the standard of excellence
set up by the apostle, but it will do them no
harm to strive for it. The love they profess
to feel for the cause of the master ought to
induce them to make any sacrifice that they
may promote the best interests of the
church, and we hope to see an earnest effort
those who dispense the gospel in st. Paul.

To the Editor of the Globe:
ST.. PAUL, Mimi, Sept %. I was clearly
of the opinion, when you were writing up
the doings at the Lake Minnetonka park
during the summer. that like the preachers
praying for rain you, were OVERRIDING the
matter. Nevertheless, if it be true, as you
published this morning, that over ten thou
sand dollars of mechanics liens have been
filed against this "home in the Wilderness -
which was so recently dedicated, to religion,
temperance and music, we are almost led to
believe some trick has been played upon the
men of Israel, by that man of
the world, Bro. Keith, and others
who are seeking in this way to divert the
title of this property, so that it can be used
for unholy and worldly purposes, and we
ask that Brothers John e. Miller and j. F..
Chafee, who represent the st. Paul end of
this gospel boom, make a report and tell the
simple and the ignorant how much of the
twenty odd thousand dollars that the breth-
rem of the city of Minneapolis subscribed
to secure the Minnetonka park has been paid
and how stands the enterprise financially
This much they should volunteer to do, to
inspire confidence in the suspicious and un-
converted, before new year opens, and a
new raid is made upon the loose quarters of
the public. a BROTHER.
