in this very important branch of education,
which is so sadly neglected in our common

The schools Just closed have been very sue

been faithful to their duties, and the pupils
have been studious. 1t is to be regretted that
four months must elapse before our schools
will reopen. IL seems n mistaken policy to

anglers. The purchasers intend to build a
track from the Ogdensburg and Lake Cham

The Row. MASS } MINING CRAZE. -Therei
something like a mining craze about Rowe
since the proprietor Of the Brown mine has
seemingly "struck pay dirt" Three or four
"mines," consisting in part Of plumbago and
FOOLS gold, are said to have been found, and
the owners, relying somewhat upon the sue
cess of the one already in operation, see Wis
ions of wealth in the distance. The Brown
mine presents busy scene The shaft is
about 40 feet deep and or 40 feet in diane
ter, and 20 tons of ore, which is sold for Sc
a ton, are hauled up every 10 hours. Two
gangs of men are employed, as the accumu-
lation of water in the shaft necesstates a
night shift, and the steam pump is kept con-
stantly at work. The bucket holds pounds,
and it is raised and lowered by 12-horse-
power engine. Mr.. Davis, the owner, con-
templates sinking another shaft. At ono side
of the building over the mouth of the shaft
there is huge pile of ore, estimated to be
225 tons, awaiting transportation. The loca-
ton of this substance, that is now attracting
so much attention, was marked by G.. l.. Al
bee of Nottingham, Vt, in 1874. He was
passing across the ravine, and, noticing Gu
rious rock broke piece off and found it to
be pure sulphate.
