A WINTER NIGHTS DREAM

Dreary seems the task assigned me,
Dull the Ilay;
would fain leave both behind me,
Steal away
Where no hopes nor cares could find me
Night or day. '
Where the pirates teak prov grapplcs
With pure sand.
Where Hesperidean apples
Hem the strand,
Where the silver sunlight dapples
Lake and land.
In some cha,m'd Saturnian island
Watch, II ,m glens of billowy highland,
Creeks of sea;
Crush the perfumes there a while and
Shake the tree.
Round the brows of naked summer,
Noon and night,
See soft rest, tie rarest comer,
Winding bright
Garlands that would we'll become her
Blithe delight.
And sleek limbs
Ieer from shalowy, leafy spaces,
Whence there swims
Praise to gods of unknown graces
In strange hymns.
Eat cool fruits of foreign favor,
Drink from shells
Wine of mild. unhnrmful SAVIOR,
Wine that smells
Like . copse when June winds WAIVER
All its bells.
Live as live fulI-feeding cattle;
Iurse mine ears
From the echOing roar anu rattle
OF the years:
Then return TO wholesome battle
With my peers

The following from the Vt. Stand
ard may interest some OF our readers :
Just what Normal school should
teach and how is still a question. More
than two hundred and fifty normal
schools in the United States are en-
deavoring to solve it. Through meet
ings, periodicals, reports, catalogues,
the results gained in any one of these
schools soon become known to all.
There is a New England Normal School
Council that meets annually in Boston.
la the meetings of this Council repres-
entatives of the Vermont normal schools
are active participants. The Vermont
normal schools are progressive schools.
Their courses of study and their meth
ods grow and develop with the chang
ing times. None of them is the prod
uct of one mans thinking, but of the
consensus of many minds. These schools
are open to the inspection of all, they
welcome criticism.
At this time,I ask leave to state what
is the work of one of the normal schools,
what preparation the students have
for it, what is our conception of the
use of the normal school,
/. In our frs. course of eighty
weeks we take up all the common
school studies to help the student COM
plete his knowledge Of them and TO or
ganize that knowledge for teaching
purposes.
?. Botany is studied ten weeks and
geometry and algebra each twenty
weeks.
3. We also have school discipline
Tor school management twenty
weeks the history of educational opin-
ion, twenty weeks psychology, twenty
weeks; methods of teaching, twenty
weeks.
4. Throughout the eighty weeks, act
ual teaching is done by the student.
The preparation. Our present enter
ing class has an average age of l7.5
Yeas. They passed satisfactory ex-
animation in arithmetic, grammar,
geography, physiology. This is about
an average class.
Our theory is simply an application
of the principle OF the division of labor.
1t may be stated this way A man
or an institution will best perform
given service, giving entire attention
TO that service.
The teacher requires a knowledge (a)
of the subject to be taught, (b)of some
related subjects, (c) of subjects organ
lied for teaching purposes, (d)of mind,
(e) of the methods of developing mind.
OF these items, and b may well be
learned in the common and high schools.
but c, d and require special work.
1t is for the accomplishment of this
work that the normal schools are es-
tablished and TO this they are devoted.

We are glad 10 notice that Judge
Powers seems 10 take the lead in the
lst Congressional district. With all
respect for Mr.. Batchelder and his a.
biities we are disposed TO think that
Mr. Powers is the strongest man. He
would command greater respect in Con-
gress. The latest caucus returns indi-
cate that he viii easily win in the con-
test. Should Judge Powers be elected
it will devolve upon the incoming legis-
lamre to choose Judge in his place.
Some additional interest attaches to the
choice of Representative at this time,
in view of the fact that il will not be
long before new Senator must be Sc
lected, and we should choose man
who has had some Congressional expe-
rience. This should be kept in mind
by the voters of the first district. We
have an indirect interest in first district
affairs, and ask that they send their
best man as we hope to do in the Sec
ond district.

Congress has passed the bill admit
ting Wyoming to the sisterhood Of
States. Wyoming is woman suffrage
territory and we suppose comes into
the Union with the woman suffrage
provision in her constitution. In this
case we may expect 10 see a woman
elected to Congress. This may be the
most practicable method Of solving the
problem Of female suffrage which keeps
pushing its way to the front. Let US

assembled at Winchester on Thursday, has
been received with universal pleasure ana

i acknowledge by all 10 be eminently
worthy. The course which Mr.. O'Ferrall
has pursued as member Of Congress has
not only entitled him TO the warm commen-
dation of his immediate constituents, but
has advanced him far in the consideration
of the people of Virginia at large. As a
representative, he has been assiduous and
faithful i'm conduct, vigorous and ready IN
debate. eloquent and fearless in his defense
of the rights Ofhis native section. Whenever
the south has been assailed, he has raised
his voice in opposition TO the attack, ana
always with powerful effect.
But his contributions to Congressional
discussion have not been confined to sec
tional questions. On the contrary, he has
taken prominent part in every imports mt
debate that has occurred. maintaining hin

Of all. 1t is fortunate thing that Virginia
can retain the services of so capable and
distinguished a man upon the floor of Com
gress. For the immediate present neither
she nor the south can spare him there. As
long as the Republican party remains in
control of the House, with power to concoci
and pass every measure which their hos
iility to the Southern states shall suggest
ii is well that the Democratic delegation
should include as many men Of the stamp Of
Mr.. O'Ferrall rs can be found, men null Of
resources. strong, courageous, and 'ag-
gressive. But it Is just this type OF public
men whom the people they represent are
anxious 10 promote 10 still higher offices,
although at home, and this disposition is
altogether natural.
80 far, tile people of Virginia have reason
10 be pleased with the Congressional nomi-
nations that have been made. The cOnyen-
ton which meets in this city, on August
18th, should present a candidate for Con-
gress who will compare most iayorably with
any who has been chosen so far elsewhere
or shall be selected hereafter. The nomina-
ton Of such men as Tucker and O'ferrall
should put the convention tor the Third dis
