Notwithstanding the fact that we
have compulsory school law there
are great many children not only
10 cities and towns but in the coun-
try also, who scarcely know the
meaning Of education. They are
not in school simply because OF their
distaste for school work and the in
difference and negligence Of parents
who make no effort to compel them
to attend. The law does not make
IL special duty for any one to look
after it's enforcement. But every
citizen, therefore, who has an inter-
est 10 the welfare OF society has a
duty to perform in looking after the
execution of the law. The men who
have been honored with o place on
the board OF education should have
an especial interest in the enforce
ment of this law. We caunot afford
to have the rising generation grow
up in ignorance, lettering about con-
tracing vicious habits that lead to
their own ruin, aud make them pests
to society and danger to the nas
tiop.

Stanley sent messengers 20 the kings of

HAYTIANS CLASH ARMS.
The Insurrectionists Win a Decisive Victory
in the Black Republic.

The Insurrectionists Win Decisive Victory
in the Black Republic.
NEW YORK, Dec 22-In a letter re-
ceived by one of the exporters from
Hayti, it is reported that a battle was
foug ut on the island, ana he result was
in favor of the northern army, the forces
under LegitIme being utterly rou'ed.
The conflict took place at Mirecalais,
which is thirty miles inland from Port
au Prince and twenty miles south from
Cape Hayden. The exact date Of the
battle Is not given, but 1t is supposed TO
have taken place on or about December
5th, the day before the Haytian gunboats
made their last attempt 70 bombard
Cape Hayden. The report was that
Gen. Hippolyte advanced on the town
early in the morning, and that durin G the
forenoon skirmishing took place with
out serious loss to either side, but esrly
in the afternoon the northern army
closed in and advanced in a solid body,
fighting as they came. After short but
decisive battle, during which a number
were killed and wounded, the army of
the south gave way and ran, some men
throwing away their Wincht ster rifles as
they fed.
Hippolyte then, it is said, took pos
session of the town, which he strongly
garrisoned. The wounded of both sides
were locked after and the arms of the
defeated southerns were gathered up.
The dead soldiers were buried in the rear
of the field of battle.
