clnsion that If only 2S per cent Of the con-

reach 4.O0g $40 .00Q ct tons before the field

The happiest Of childhood's happy period
will soon be over, and the melody of the
school bell will then resouud through our
hill-environed town calling the children TO
study and to duty in the spacious institution
on the hill, denominated by some of our
young ladies as Oak Grove Seminary. The
school board have made the best provision
possible for the coming year by the selection
Of an able corps of teachers, and have meri-
toriously shown their appreciation Of the
fact that superior talent calls for better pay
by fixing as rule upon higher salaries than
were paid last year. We take pleasure in
noting this fact to the credit of our school
board, and we look !or such results from the
labors of the teachers during the coming
year as will demonstrate the wisdom of the
boards action in the premises.

upon the principle that "the early bird

On the Democratic side Of the house the
people of Weatberly have a good feeling
toward every candidate in the field, but,
most natural y, espouse the cause of their
