The Town System--.Again.

We notice that several papers of the
state have made praiseworthy efforts to
place the merits of the town system of
schools before their readers. The Wind,
sor Journal and the st. Adams Messenger
especially have explained the law at
length, and urged the adoption of it upon
the attention of the voters of the towns.
A correspondent, thoroughly and practi-
cally familiar with the system, in an
other column succinctly reviews its adj
vantages and briefly tells what the system
is MOI. We have received reports from
other towns that have tried the system,
and they fully confirm all that has been
said in its favor. The superintendent of
the Hinesburgh school says:
"The experience of this town fully corrobo.
rates the statements and arguments in your
last issue in favor of the town system The
schools are run with much less friction than
under the district system. We have much
better schools from the fact that there il greater
permauency in teachers, for II we get the
right kind, we endeavor to retain them az long
as possible, either in the same school or in
some of the schools. We have retained teach.
ers as long as four years in the same school. We
are able to hire at lower figure, from the
very fact that the teachers expect permanent

explained his failure to comprehend it,"

WRITING of the character of the dele
cation which Vermont should send to
Chicago, the Rutland Herald says: "In
any event our popular representatives
Judge Poland and Governor Stewart, ought
to be placed on the delegation. Judge
Poland's very large public acquaintance
and his remarkable public talents make
him just the man to lead our delegation,
and Governor Stewards intimate &C
quaintsnce with western Vermont's pub
lie opinion fits him well to be Judge
Poland's colleague in the list of delegates
at.large. There isn't a farmer
in Vermont but knows the difference
between aspiration and ability, and yet he
frequently, out of pure good nature, pre-
fers the silly peacock of aspiration to
the strong-winged sunscanning eagle OF
ability. 1t is poor policy; if there is nc
sound reason why man should 60 to
Chicago to represent Vermont, save that
he wants to go, he had better be left at
home. The Chicago convention ought
not to be regarded as political picnic
where bummers and blow-hards assemble
to ventilate their arrogated consequence
We do not need any Diogenes lantern to
discover the proportions of capable man
but we do need an electric light to make
out the foggy political phantoms who
think a years tagging of governor
about the state converts the evangelist OF
a petty village caucus into statesman
Let US send to Chicago the tall men in
business, law or politics-men who do moi
find it necessary to swear by affidavit to
their personal ability and political worth
We all know who these men are in every
town let US send them, without regard tc
the whimpering protest of some illustriou:
obscurity that it is his turn 1t is no
body's turn; it is the turn of the mar
whose popular eminence for professional Oh
business or political ability has lifted hin
to the rank of the most conspicuous citi
zens of the state"

THE Messenger says of the proposal to
adopt the town system of schools in St.
Adams, and of the general features Of
the town system: "We should be very
cautious about advising the proposed
change from the old district system, if
we did not believe that the town system
would do away with many of the evils
that have grown out of the former, and
furnish the means of more complete
education for all classes of pupils. In
Pennsylvania it has been in use twenty
five years, with satisfactory results. In
Massachusetts, it is working well. The
general testimony from these states is
that the town system is more uniform and
thorough in its workings, and really more
economical. But what if its cost should
be something more than that of the old dis
trict system If it is better system,
and secures better schools, larger aver
age attendance, better qualified teachers,
improved management of school interests,
and the equalization of school taxes, the
expense is to be the last thing considered.
No one who feels an abiding interest in
the general education of the people will
ever object to any expenditure of money
for school purposes that yields results
commensurate with the outlay. We hope
that the question of adopting the town
school system may be fairly presented to
the voters, and decided altogether on its
merits"

THE democratic celebration of Wash
ington's birthday by the Massachusetts
state central committee took place Friday
afternoon, at the Parker house, Boston.
There was nothing in the flow of the con-
ventional democratic oratory to mark the
occasion. The dinner missed the flavor
which Governor Buffers presence and
speech would have impaired. At many
another political spread during the men,
orable year that has gone, his audacity,
eloquence and mercurial disregard of the
history of his own, or any other times,
often "outdid the meat, outdid the
frolic wine." The significant feature
of this democratic feast, in the eyes of
the older rank of men, was eulogy on
Wendell Phillips. The times change,
indeed, and men change with them. But
Mr.. Phillips had lately lsbored for the
triumph of the Massachusetts democracy,
and this seems to have warmed the cookies
of their hearts toward the old-time and
fiery denouncer of the party that upheld
slavery. 1t is noticeable, also, that his
eulogist, ex-Mayor Palmer, aud others
who praised the great agitator, are estrays
from the republican fold. That demo
crat whose boast is that he was "dyed in
the wool is not undermining the founda.
tions of society and government, by dis
playing undue enthusiasm for Phillips, il
shown by the organ of the Vermont
democracy. The Argus and Patriot says
"Mr. Phillips was not loyal to the laws
and the constitution prior to the grea,
civil war, and was not Union man. Or
the contrary, he talked in favor of the
destruction of the Union" Itself loya
to the laws and constitution prior to tn,
war, and stanch supporter of the Uniol
during the great conflict, it is fully com
petent to sit in judgment upon the grea
advocate of human rights, in whose favo
it should not count that, after the GU,
break of the war and the abolition O
slavery, he changed his condemnation @
the Union to the support of it; and ths

Those papers which are constantly
referring to the Abolition partJ to
prove that we ought to form a Prohi-
bition party, must not forget that the
Abolition Of Slavery was not secured
by third party. If the Republican
party in 1856 had indorsed the Abol-
itionists' platform it would not have
secured one-tenth Of the vote which
Fremont received. IF it had done so
in 1860 it would not have carried a
single state in the Union, and the
Wing party would not have died. It
was the Abolition element in the Re-
publican party which forced it to de-
mand the Emancipation Proelama-
tion. It did not join Garrison's little
band Of third party men but forced
the ruling into it.
This is precisely what we want the
Prohibitionists to do; what they did
in Iowa and Kansas, and what they
will do in Ohio next year. after hav-

An Egyptian Custom.

It is stated that the ancient Egyp-
tians when they feasted always had a
skeleton at the table with them. This
was for the purpose of reminding
them that even in the midst of mirth
and revelry death was apt to come.
Let him come when he will and he is
unwelcome. The Egyptians sought
to teach that all should prepare for
the grim monster and be ready to
follow him, let him call when he
would. The lesson can well be re-
membered to-day. All should live
prepared to die at any moment, and
all should learn now while in the full
enjoyment of wealth and its pleasures
that Perqtna is the greatest remedy
in the world for the diseases to which
flesh is heir. Tt can be procured at
any drug store Ask your druggist
for Perula, the great tonic.

the only way to drive it out is to pur-

end, as is acknowledged by all medi-
