Reports from the county school COM

hundred communities in the county, and
about two-thirds Of them have organized for
the ensuing scholastic year, commencing on
August lst, 1880, and terminating on July
3lst, 1881. The law requires that the county
judge shall make pro rat. distribution of
the county school funds on the lst of August,
but it was impossible to do 80 yesterday on
account of the absence of reports, from one
third Of the communities, As above men

American Enterprise.

Recovering from the recent panic anG
stagnation, railroad enterprise is beginning
to develop itself of late in all departments,
and in none more definitely and vigorously
than in that of trestle-work, or the tempo
rary bridging of ravines, &C., by iron OF
woodwork, generally the latter. Trestle-
work is more used in this country than in
Europe, and consequently has been brought
to higher degree Of perfection. Pine
white or yellow, is the wood most in vogue
and labor, skill, enterprise, and capital are
abundantly devoted to this branch of rail.
road engineering.
The three most notable examples of tres.
tle-work in this country are on the Erie
Railroad, near Portage! the trestle-bridge
at East Tarrytown, N. Y, on the route of
the important and rapidly progressing New
York, Boston, and Montreal Railroad, and
the well-known trestle-bridge of the Fourth
avenue improvement, upper section.
Of these, the last mentioned is the longest,
while that at East Tarrytown is the highest,
with one exception, in the United States.
The trestle on the Fourth avenue was erect
ed by McIntire Bros. That at East larry
town by James McIntire, the senior member
of the firm, who is confessedly at the head
of trestle-work in the United States.
This enterprising contractor has also un-
dertaken to builda bridge over Croton Lake,
and is engaged in various other enterprises
of magnitude in the line of trestle work,
which promises to become, which in fact
has become already, leading feature of
railroad engineering in the United States.

Hardening the Constitution,

Men talk about hardening the constitu-
ton, and with that view expose themselves
to summers sun and winters wind, to strain
md oyer-eforts, and many unnecessary
'ardships. To the same end ill-informed
aothers souse their little infants in cold
Sater day by day their skin and flesh and
bodies as steadily growing rougher and
thinner and weaker, until slow fever, OF
water on the brain, or consumption of the
bowels, carries them to the grave; and
then they administer to themselves the semi
comfort and rather questionable consolation
of its being mysterious dispensation of
nature, when, in fact, nature works no mir
acle to counterfeit our follies. The best way
l know of hardening the constitution IS to
take good care of it; for it is no more i'm
proved by harsh treatment than a fine gar
ment OF a new hat is made better by being

Catching A Thief.
ond sum-

The following expedient. for catching a
thief was adopted in provincial town in
England some thirty years ago:
A miller residing near place called
Beverly, whose place had been entered fol
some time previously almost every night !;
and a considerable quantity of grain alb
stracted, hit upon very ingenious expedient
for the detection of the offender.
The means Of ingress was by putting a
finger through hole in the door, which
uplifted the latch On the night in ques-
ton the miller set large box-trap, and
hung it inside the door, so that the thiel
would be obliged to touch the spring in
opening the door
Having taken this precaution, he left il
for the night, and on going the following
morning his expectations were realized by
finding fellow suspended from the door by
his finger! The miller, after severely adj
monishing the thief for his crime, and
taking in consideration the suferings the
poor wretch had undergone, gave him the
choice of abiding by the law, or receive a
good horse-whipping.
1t is needless to add that he preferred the
latter alternative, which the miller admin
istered, with the full power of stalwart
man.

Daniel Webster.

Daniel Webster was farmer and took
delight in country things. He had patri-
ARCH love of sheep. Choice breeds thereof
he had. He tookd delight in COWS. He titled
maternal acres with his own oxen. He loved
to give the kline fodder. 1t was pleasant to
hear him talk of oxen and but three days
before he left the earth, too i'll to visit them,
his oxen lowing came to see their sick lord,
and as he stood in his door, his great cattle
were driven up, that he might smell their
healthy breath, and look his last on those
broad, generous faces that were never false
to him.
What an eGecting scene is here described!
Daniel Webster loved these animals for their
own sake and not for their value in silver or
gold. He loved to feed them with his own
hands in order to witness their happiness
while satisfying their hunger and to win
their love for him. They loved their kind
owner, and no wonder that they came low
ing, one by one, to see their sick lord The
Scripture says, "The OK knoweth its owner"
Then all these splendid animals, numbering
between one and two hundred, knew Daniel
Webster as they were driven up and looked
on him for the last time, and who shall say
they did not miss him and mourn for him
when he came to see them no more? No
doubt this great man enjoyed more real
happiness in the society of these dumb brutes
of every kind on the Marshfeld farm, than
he ever realized in hearing the plaudits of
his fellow men as his elegant words rang
out in the Senate Chamber Hall of our great
nation and thousands of worshippers were
following in his train. He knew that fame
was but a breath, and had learned, by bitter
experience, that the most devoted of his
worshippers might desert and betray him,
but that not one of these guiltless creatures
would ever prove false to him.

Curing Nervousness.
