Correspondence Of the GAZETTE:

Having spent few hours very pleas
antly and profitably last Thursday visit
ing our schools, We seek the columns of
the Gazette to inform its readers, and the
patrons of the school, of that fact and
the impressions made upon our mind.
The exercises were of such character
that We could not form an opinion of the
work being done in the intermediate
grades, therefore will refer only to the
principal and primary teacher and their
pupils.
It required but few minutes to dis.
cover that Miss Aver is unusually well
qualified for tho position she has so ad
mirably filed for the past three years.
A successful primary teacher always pos
sesses the following qualifications: o. A
strong individuality; (2.) Quick, clear
perceptive powers; (3,) Untiring patience,
a. A heart largo enough to take in An
unlimited number of children. These
are all natural endowments, and al
though they may be cultivated, when pos
sessed, yet are never to be acquired. In
addition to these cultivated expert
ence in teaching and an exhaustive
knowledge of the elementary structure
of language are indispensable. The lat
ter may be acquired by almost any earn.
est student, The experience gained from
year to year in the school room is invalu-
able. A conscientious, painstaking
teacher should receive an increase of sal.
ary from year to year, as her services BE-
come more valuable.
We were much pleased with the recita-
tions, (which were the regular ones for
the day. and not exercises especially pre-.
pared for the entertainment of visitors.
The little folks were deeply interested
and eager to please their teacher. There
were no signs Of fear, which are so PAIN
full to witness in some school rooms. On
the other hand. the school was well con-
trolled, so that our visit was not marred
by the feeling that we would like to give
the teacher lecture. and set half doz-
en- little boys down very hard.
The candid conclusion we come to is,
had we child old enough to 20 to school
we could entrust it to Miss Aver with full
assurance that it's mental growth would
be well cared for. and:its first steps in the
paths of knowledge steps we'll taken.
We regret to learn that Miss Aver has
decided not to retain her place in our
teaching force for the coming year. She
retires with the love of the children and
the good wishes of their parents. Being
in a position to know the sentiments of
the people we speak &c eathedrn.
The substantial citizens of our village
who have children will sustain the school
board in their endeavor to employ first
class teachers. Gentlemen of the school

past. expect that one worthy to fill Miss

 The Arguments That Are to Come
 RavnSes of the Fellow Eever-Other

 WASHINGTON, Aug. 27.-It is thought tb at the Star route trials will end on Saturday next. MT. Merrick will probably conclude his argument by noon tomorrow, and will be followed by Mir. Henkle, who will speak per haps until Tuesday noon. Mir. Wilson will certainly speak for 8 day and a half, as he will devote himself to the law points of the case exclusively and review all the evidence bearing upon that branch. Colonel Ingersoll, who makes the closing speech for the dc fense, is not likely to occupy more than four hours, while Attorney General Brewster it is thought will not speak more than three hours. This will give the case to the jury by Saturday and a verdict may be expected on the following Monday. It is understood that Mir. Brewster will pay his respects to the local papers which have been ridiculng him and making all manner of fun of his dress when ever he has appeared in court.

Female Spy's Experience-Eyorse
 Treatment than She Had During the
 War.
 PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 27.--Belle Boyd, the female spy who figured extensively during the rebellion, had an experience which she declared twas worse treatment than I re- ceived during the whole war" The fair Belle, whose married name is Hammond, re- sides with her family on North Twelfth street. By some unaccountabIe means she gave a check to Marcus, the pawnbroker on Vine street near Thirteenth, but it also happened that the bank upon which the check was drawn never held one penny belonging to the daring woman. 'I would have trusted dot woman for hundreds and I did not think she would sheat me- was the mournful tale of the man of three balls. So Marcus caused 8 warrant to issue on the charge of uttering and passing worthless and forged check with intent to defraud. The matter was in way, was a Union soldier and accustomed to facing bullets To capture the dashing spy of the Confederacy suited him exactly. He rang the bell and the servant peeped out of | the side yard gate. Then the constable fol; ! lowed her into the yard and took a seat I Soon the fair Belle made her appearance, with s'What do you want?"

The colloquy went on in this style | for some time, when Woodward was dared to l come in the house and he refused, but added, l II have a warrant for you and pro- pose to take you." The woman shrieked 1 and her sixteen year old daughter l appeared on the scene. She rushed toward 1 the constable and shaking her dimpled fist

l [s G. W. Benjamin in the September Century, Thirty years ago lG days was fair allow anco for the passage between England and New York by steam. By gradual steps the point was reached when II days was the minimuu, and this startled the world. Then began a rivalry between the Inman and White Star lines, attended by succ ssion of runs showing 8 gradual increase of speed which proved great advertisement for these lines. In 1871 the average time of 24 crack voyages by these lines was days, 1J hours and 5 minutes. The Adriatic'S best westward time WAS 4:} minutes less. It should be remembered that the westward passage IS generally longer than in the other direction, owing to westerly winds and t. @ Gulf stream. In emulation ot this speed in 877 the City of Berlin of the lnman line made the trip to Queenstown from New York in [ days, II hours and , minutes, and in the same year the Britannia of the White Star line crossed from Queenstown in days 10 hours and :I;} minutes. In 1879 a new rival appeared in this field, the Arizona of the Guion line. This steamship made the eastward passage in 1880 in days, 10 hours and A. minutes and in one trip in 1881 she lessened this time about three hours. I his seemed to be about the best that could be expected of these superb ships, when the new Guion steamer Alaska, after number of astonishing runs accomplished the westward passage between the two ports, on April IS, 1882, in days,
 
 heavy seas. In subsequent trip eastward she ran the distance in 6 days and P hours, actual time. In this, the quickest passage ever made across the Atlantic, the Alaska travelled ,, o95 knots, being about an average of 41Sa knots per day, for seven successive days. It will be observed that the increase of speed has been graduated in proportion to the gradual increase of size. The ships of 1850 were rarely much over ? 800 tons, and were barely 900 feet long, Now the average length of ocean steamers Is upward of 400 feet while 300 feet is not uncommon. The City of Rome is 566 feet long and registers S,92G tons; the Servia is 53O feet and 8, 300 tons the Alaska is 52O feet and 6,932 tons. The Austral, intended for the Australian trade, is t74 feet long and IS feet 3 inches broad and registers 9 300 tons. The measure ments of this vessel, and of the new Cunard- CT Cephalonia, which is 44O feet long by 4G feet beam, indicate that the reaction against extreme length has already commenced in the great sbip-yards of Great Britain, being in each of these cases less than 10 beams to tha 1enOth
