About Public schools.

Mr.. EDITOR: AS I am q constant
reader of your valuabIe paper I beg
leave ID say something about our pub
lie schools. The time has come when
teachers must be prepared for their
work. The drones are gradually Drop
ping out vi rank and their places are
being supplied with earnest workers.
The times demand good teachers,
and the. demand is as imperative as the
demand for food. AS loaf of bread
among starving children, so is good
instruction among starving minds.
Good teachers make good schools,
good schools make Intelligent citizens,
and an intelligent, virtuous, and vigil
liant people Can neither be deceived,
corrupted nor betrayed.
All experience shows tlst We cannot
obtain supply of teachers unless we
create special agencies for their pre-
paratioD. Hence the necessity for
normal schools and teachers iDsti-
tGtee.
Here permit me to say, taat SuIt. H.
w. Framework has done great work
for Greene county, especially in the
way of establishing good normal
has raised the standard of teaching
and the result is good school in every
district.
He Ia the rigl ~ in the right
place, and his greatest pmbiiitn the
peoples good. All honor to Prof.
Framework! I trust he will lie re-
elected. am sure our magis rates
could make no better selet tiop.
The school term will average about
five months; teachers salaiy about $23
per month. Public sentiment is de.
cidedly in favor of public schools.
Aud now, kind editor, permit me to
return my thanks to Mr.. John w.

Then why won't it come back again2
To-day, the sun shines bright ard clear
But then, to-morrow's drawing near.
To -day-oh, do not go awayl
And vanish like dear yesterday.
'Tis when the sun and all the light
Has gone, and darkness brings the night, "a

And change your name to yesterday.
And will all time be just the same?
To-day-the only name remain?
And shall / always have tosay,
Tomorrow you'll be yesterday ?
II wonder, when we go to heaven,
If there record will be given
OF all our thoughts and all our ways,

That mine a noble life may be;
For then, I'll greet with joyous gaze

Since the introduction of this Spool Cotton
into the American market, its success has
been unprecedented. No other brand of
thread has ever met with the same amount
Of public favor in the same space Of time.
The 80. n L" manufacturers were the
first to recognize the importance of the Sew

which has ever since been the recognized
standard for machines.
All the improvements in machinery that
the inventive genius of the nineteenth CEN

manufacturers of 80. N. T."
At all the great International Fairs of the

Necessity. of Amusement.

There are, even now, some old fogies
who would have men and women work
from morning till midnight, day after
day, week after week, and year after
year, without relaxation OF Amusement
of any sort. But Just as the man is
merging iuto the machine, and learns
to go his rounds like horse in bark
mill, in a sudden fit of perversity he
dies. Just as you get him to believe
that riding and fishing, walking and
fencing, dancing, attending the theater
or tcpncert-room. in moderation even,
isn waste of time, ,yon have to send for
the doctor, the undertaken, or the sd.
periutendent of lunatic asylum. The
philosophy that would abiure innocent
recreation would also take aSay the
spring aud youth, the forme. from the
seasons, the latter from human life.
The fact is, human nature Graves relax.
alton and excitement, and We ARE rapid
ly waking up to the fact. As people
We have been ogerwOrking ourselves,
for eight or nine generations, aud the
system is beginning to tell upon us.
The carewora look of our citizens ex-
hibits the sad story at a glance-we re-
Qpire more holidays; our recreatiors
are too ,irregul II, too few and far be-
tween. We stand in need OF ,insigor.
sting sports and of plenty of healthy
amusements. We should be more in,
tellectual even, if We devoted less time
and thought to the culture of the in
tellect; We should become more many.
sided, less fantastical, and should en-
JOY healthier old age, Those people
who turn their face against rational
amusement had better blot out the SUI
shine and strip the earth of its flowers.
Recreation is essential to perfect health
and happiness.

Indeed. It's serious question, Z,
There are black eyes, glowing with FIRE,
Which might charm, bu, that in woman
Not daring. but love, desire. ..
And then melting brown eyes, persuasive,

But they say tina, this color Is tickle;

Inspired, intellectual gray eyes
Which deepen and darken intense,
Would have all the votes but that somehow
They seem filled with malice prepsnse.
But one color more claims attention,
And that is--my dear, did you speak9
The color of bue-bells 80 fragile,
OF violets iowly and meek.
Blue thrills us in depths of the ocean.
And charms US in heavens dome,
Bringing dreamy and pensive enjoyment,
Like thoughts Of a distant home.

With the proofs of his royal and gener.
Gus devotion. g. D-~ ''." g. u .i
"Oh, John, you ought not to have
done this she cried. in a voice of re-
gret aud distress. "You could not af-
ford it, and beside something has hap
pened, John, that made it unnecessary. {"
He gazed athef in mute wonder. The
pain of her sweet eyes startled him.
"Why could I not afford it. my pet, {"
lie asked gently, "when you are to

will he my own-my wife?" -.
ooh, John. she gasped, you never
asked me to marry you, and now you
are too latc-oh, John, too late !"
D., And then she covered her face and
! began TO sob bitterly. The poor child
| had never hid a sorrow from him in
her life. She had always gone to him
I for comfort in all her griefs, and it did
not occur to her that it was not quite
proper and consistent for him TO con-
sole her for grief like this.
But in the midst of her tears she sud
denly remembered, and she fed away
from his OBTAINING hand to the further
end of the parlor, only to meet Caring
ton, who had just come in.
"Tessie," he began kindly, {" I have
made my sacrifice, and I have come to
tell you. l know the whole story, Just

You will make him as happy as you
could have me, had heaven meant me
to be your husband. 1 shall see your
mamma, and save you from all unpleas-
ant explanations"
His goodness touched her. In her
gratitude she could have knelt at his
feet and kissed the kindly hands which
now led her back to her wandering
lover.
The next moment he was gone, and
Johns arms were about her, and Johns
kisses were on her lips.
On Tessie's wedding morning she
found, among her bridal gifts mag
niicent soucenir from Monreith Caring
ton, who retained for her all the deli
cate aud chivalrous sentiment of such
a friendship as only noble gentleman
can give to an adorable lady Warerly.
