DEATHS

DIED, ,,t 2:3O o'clock, p. NJ, August 3lst,
ARTHUR BYRD, beloved son Of Dr. b.
B. and Mrs. j. Il. Crawford, aged 10 years,
q months and IL days.
DIED, on August Goth, 1881, at Laytons-
vile, NELLIE BLAIR, youngest and be-
loved daughter of DIR. B. b. and Mrs. j. Il.
Crawford.
On Thursday morning, August 18th, at 8
o'clock, HOWELL G. CRAWFORD, of
Laytonsville, passed from earth through
the gates OF death. He was in the prime of
life, being only twenty-three years old On
Friday succeeding his death his body was
borne from the home of his childhood TO its
burial in the cemetery of the Goshen church.
A very large number Of the citizens of the
surrounding country assembled at the church
to pay a last tribute Of love and respect to
one whom they chose TO honor and whose
manly face and form they could not hope ~
see again on earth.
The funeral services were conducted by
the writer, assisted by Revs. G. Il. Tyler and
Mr.. Cross, who followed the discourse with
sensible words Of instruction and comfort.
In keeping with the text, which was "GOd
is our refuge and strength, and very pres
ent help in trouble" the Goshen choir sang
"Come ye Disconsolate," with great pathos
and effect. There was halowed and sub
dued joy borne to the smitten hearts on the
waves of this sanctified music. Again, when
weeping father and mother looked down
into the grave and heard the sound of the clod
on the coffin lid, just following the beauti-
ful sentences OF the collect and the benedic-
ton, the crushing weight of dispair and
griei was lightened by the sweetest strains
of music that came floating over the large
crowd assembled-likc voices from the cees-
tial land-"We shall part, but not forever
"We shall meet them on the resur-
rection morn"
The large attendance upon this funeral
occasion and the great grief displayed, were
expressions of the high favor in which the
deceased was held by those with whom he
had lived. He was conscious of his ap-
preaching death for several days before the
sad event. Messages of great import-of
warning to show folly and the fashionable
sins of lie--to be faithful 10 the high trust
of God committed 10 every man, was sent
by him to large number of his former as
sociates and friends. Rev. Mr.. Cross who
attended his bedside and held intimate in
tervews with him was fully persuaded that
his resignation and calmness in the face of
death was the fruit of vital faith in the re-
bounding and saving merits Of Christ. Thus
the bereaved mourn, but in the light Of hope
hope Of the better resurrection ard Of
recognition and fellowship in the life To
follow May the spirit ol comfort abide
with the afflicted family. is the prayer of
many sympathetic hearts.
G. NJ Brown.

over. The advance has been so sudden since
the 1st of August that it is natural to expect
that there will be some reaction. But the
highest prices have not yet been reached, in
my opinion, because as | have said, the
grain crop will be much shorter than has
been expected. There is no disputing the
facts which have caused the rise. In the
first place, the corn crop last year was not
so large as in 1S79-the year before-so that
during last winter, which was very long
and severe one, the farmers were obliged to
use millions Of bushels to feed their stock.
This was serious draft on the supply on
hand. But it was not until the drouth of
the middle of June that we began to hear
much talk of short supply of corn. The
July statement of the Agricultural Depart
ment put its probable yields at ninety per
cent. Since then they have put it great
deal lower. There are many sections of this
country where they have not had drop of
rain for eight weeks. There never was such
a drouth, and if it continues four weeks
longer in the winter wheat section it will be
too late for them to plow for their fall wheat.
Nothing can save them but two weeks of
rain and it must come soon-within two or
three weeks. The dread of this continued
drouth has already had something to do
with advancing the price in the west II it
continues four weeks longer wheat will go

Report of the Committee on Education
to the County Grange.

Your committee respectfully beg leave to
report,
That after a careful and thoughtful con-
sideration Of the present school-law an d its
workings, we deem it lnexpedient to re-
commend any alterations in it, believing the
head thereof (the State Board) as judiciously
formed as could be in view of the conflict
ing opinions upon the subject, and the evil
dence we have of its efficiency in the prac-
tical operation of the system. We fail TO
see how the county Board of School Com
missioners could be further removed from
party politics than it is In the hands of the
judiciary, and we hope that body lin view
of its erudition and supposed freedom from
prejudice or individual bias) will ever keep
the system free from the influence of politi-
cal demagogues.
The greatest difficulty, as it presents itself
to the mind of your committee, is that the
patrons fail TO exercise the needed interest
in recommending suitable persons for teach
ers, and on the part of the Trustees want
of that conviction of the importance Of their
position, that prompts to action, and urges
the trustees 10 a fearless discharge of his
duty in keeping an oversight over the disci-
pline of the school, and an eye to the moral
and intellectual status Of the teacher.
Your committee would recommend that
those of our Order, more Immediately in
terested in the schools, calmly consider the
subject, with view to ascertain their duty
and a firm resolve to discharge the same.
We are further convinced that we will not
have our schools OF the standard we could
wish until the standard for the teacher is
higher and the remuneration raised to Il
pOiLt that will enable those possessing all
the requisite qualifications for an educator
To maintain a family respectfully, and thus
be enabled 10 devote themselves entirely to
the profession. The want of such system
is necessitating II large proportion of those,
who bear heavy proportion of the tax for
the system as it now is, to educate their
children privately at an additional expense
We invite thought to the subject, and sub
nit this report ISAAC You've,
Chairman.
