the MORALITY OF OUR SCHOOLS.

One great evil of our schools, pri-
vate as we'll as public, is that they
run altogether too much to textbook
work. Nothing is caocted from the
teachers but servile attention to
book lessons. No matter how the
child gets them, if he can show
"high percentages he is an honored
pupil. Twopupils start out together
in the low primary. One child's
mother tries to instil in his mind a
love for truth and honesty, and never
to cheat his teacher in his lessons.
The other boy cheats each day, is
marked high and trotted out for pub
lie admiration as the "star pupil"
The first boy sees this, and by the
time he reaches the fifth grade he
comes to the conclusion that his
mother knows nothing about the
world, and her instructions go for
naught after that. The dishonest
pupil flourishes, but he must hug the
foot of the class because of his
mothers idea Of honesty. AT once
he renounces her training and fails
into line for the honors. When
those boys leave school they will be
ripe for any villainy that may sur
round them in life. Place them in
bank or trusted public office where
money is to be controlled, and their
easy virtue will slip away like
"water from ducks back" Now,
we do not pretend to say that our
teachers are altogether to blame
for this. They do and will
do what is required of them;
and if conscience and high sense of
duty to these children is not exacted
of them as mark of qualification to
teach in these schools, they are not
going to spend time OH such train
ing and jeopardize their standing by
falling behind in the race for ''per-
centages." There are schools in this
city where the principals and teach
ers create and keep among their
pupils a pure, lofty tone of honor,
politeness and love of truth, simply
because they cannot help it, being
true themselves. They leave their
mental mark on those schools, and
the parents of those children will
point out such schools fearlessly, for
they know them. With them govern
ment and education is simply the
magnetic influence of superiority and
self-control, the power of strong,
healthy, honest mind over the
weaker, and only such should over
he allowed to train these children in
our schools. The ten thousand petty.
narrow-minded freaks and whims
which characterize the daily drill of
some of our teachers ard principals
would make them the laughing-stocks
of disgusted community, if brought
out to public gaze.-4S. r. Enami-
ner. How is it in this community?

The Denton Post omce.

A delegation OF prominent Caroline
county Republicans visited Baltimore
last week in the interest OF Charles
Stevens, the postmaster at Denton,
charges against whom were lately invss
tigated by Jehu B. Askew, special
agent OF the Post Office Department. The
otfense alleged was the selling of liquor
in his drug store, where the post Office is
located, without a prescription, or in
cases where 1t was not required
for medicinal purposes. There
were also other complaints. Mr.,
Stevens friends state that he has been
greatly maligned by persons who are in.
terested in the endorsement OF other can
didates for the place, and whenever any
one was seen under the influence OF liquor
1t was usual to connect Mr.. Stevens name
with it. They also claim that the post
master is sustained by large part OF the
respectable citizens Of both parties
although to come extent the contest grow
out Of Internal and opposing political
questions.

president, Amelia Polk Foote, a woman IN
whom were met the gentle graces OF truly
religious character and the energy aud
power OF an intelligent mind do therefore
Resotued, That We deeply regret the
sudden loss to our society, of one who was 20
actively interested in its objects, and so fully
calculated to advance them, who WAS from
the beginning 10 closely identified with its
workings, aud on whom SO largely rested the
responsibility Of its failure or Its success.
The effort Of women to lift the weight OF
injustice and degradation from a crushed
race of fellow beings met ready sympathy
and help from her kindly nature, and active
benevoence and that she lived to see that
effort obtain foothold, aud assume work
ing shape In the community, may be cause OF
thankfulness, even though she WAS not blest
to behold the fruition OF her hopes in the full
accomplishment OF the good work. That We

Telling of His Theft.


SeAford is greatly ssitatsd over the
death Of Mira. Joseph jackson, which
occurred Tuesday afternoon week and was
the result Of 8 severe beating admins
tered by her husband about two weeks

The facts which led to the inhuman
treatment OF Mrs. Jackson are these On
the 18th of November one OF the delivery
wagons of Jam 0utten & Sons, mer-
chants, WAS EN- route to Concord loaded
with merchandise and closely followed
by jackson in bis butcher wagon. A
case OF tobacco fell from the back part OF
the first vehicle, which the driver did not
miss for time, when he turned and drove
back in search of it. Not finding 1t, he
turned about and driving rapidly overlook
jackson and inquired II he had seen any
thing of the missing oase. He answered
in the negative, but his manner indicated
that he WAS telling an untruth. Con.
WINGED that he had the box one OF the
firm drove to his houss in the afternoon
OF the Same day and made search tor
the lost article. They saw Mrs. jackson
and told her of the loss and she suggested
that they search the barn, which they
did without finding the object of the
search.
0pe OF the firm then appeared before
Squire Allen and made affidavit that
Jackson had the goods and swore out d
warrant for his arrest. Before 1t was
served, however, Jackson returned the
case OF tobacco and its owners let the
matter drop.
Discovering tina; his wife had told
Meesrs. Outten TO search the barn, and
had aided IN the hunt, Mr. jackson wa
sr. atty epfaged, aud with a heavy club
