Memories of Other Days.

If the scholars of to-day could step back
would be astonshed at the manners and
customs of that time. Then when we met
strangers we were required to take off our
hats and make respectful bow; also when
we entered the school room. and when we
stood up in the classes to read or speak
the same was required of the boys and of
ard books then We're the old English Read
er, Websters Spelling Book, Walker S
Dictionary, Lindley Murray's Grammar,
Kinney Arithmetic and Morse Geogra-
ply.
One of the careful schoomams of those
days had class carefully trained for ex-
animation in Geography. The supervisor
had little suspicion that the scholars, as
well as the questions, had been numbered.
and taking the book asked the first boy
the second question: What large animals
inhabit the river Nile? Ans Columbus
and his crew. He then asked the second
boy the first question: Who discovered
America? Ans. Crocodiles and alligators.
Our writing materials in those DAYS were
OF the most primitive order. There were
no engraved copies; we had to make and
rule our own books, make our own ink
and write with quill pens There were
no steel pens. The first of elliott extra
tine were S353. 90 per gross or ten cents a
piece. Then our copies began with long.
straight marks, and woe betide the I'M

the scholars to see ''the crooked STRAIGHT
marks this boy had been making. : That

and his right there was none to dispute. =
If any one did dispute his right, they were
sure To get striking impression from
something he carried in his hand His
mode OF government was severe He used
to ia Ike two boys by their hair and thump
their heads together and sometimes would
whack their heads against a brick wall
and call them block heads. His scholars
did not cry the last day of school.

and as specimen of what eastern mechanics
can do, we give herewith an accurate por-
tra1t OF the new barque Moses Kimball,
named after the proprietor of the Boston
Museum. She was built at Belfast, Maine,
by Z. p. Carter 4 Co., firm of shipbuilders
who enjoy a reputation second to none in

500 tons burthen, of "a half-clipper model,
thus combining beauty, speed, and carrying
ability, and with her neat rig, as seen in the
cut, is as graceful a craft as floats in these
waters. Her owners may well be proud of
her. We learn that she is to be engaged in
the Liverpool trade, under command of
Capt. G. w. Colson, of Searsport, thorough
sailor and good specimen of down-easter.
Cnder such auspices We see no reason why
she is not bound to go ahead, like her name
sake, with a whole sail breeze of good luck
and prosperity.

Chautauqua NWork.

Very many scholars at the close of their
school lives lay aside their books for a few
days rest and recreation, fully intending to
continue in the closest intimacy with books
during their whole lives. But the days
glide into weeks, and the weeks into months,
and possibly the months into years, and the
time nerer comes when they profit by the
school advantages which they have enjoyed.
Entering the different channels of life work
they soon forget their books. Amidst the
calls for the varied kinds of society work,
their time becomes limited, and the hour
with their favorite author is lost. House
hold cares multiply, and perhaps the weekly
paper is the only literary production that is
read. No thought for retaining the know
ledge which they have gained finds place
with them Nor is this at all to he wondered
at. The period of youthful life is very full
of excitement and enjoyment. The days,
the weeks, the months whirl rapidly by
them, and they only take sufficient time for
their chosen work, the remainder is taken
for the gayeties of life. Talking with a
young lady few weeks since ,.erself
graduate, she said to me- 81 enjoy my work
very much, but there is nothing in it which
induces me to read or study, and lind that
am forgetting what once knew very We'll,
and was very proud of knowing. Now, if 1
could only join with others in Ia distinct line
of reading, l feel that | could make much
progress in literary work. Some others of
our energetic young women, sharing this
same feeling have organized Chautaulua
Club with several members and are enter
ing upon four years course Of hard study.
They have pleasant little home at the Bap-
fist vestry and hope to gather into the class
many of their friends and school classmates.
The older Chautauquans also hold their
meetings in this room. One evening in each
month the two circles. and the lessons, pa
pers and reports of both, are enjoyed togeth-
er. Monday evening Nov. It'll was passed in
this manner and was a very pleasant occa-
sion. The two circles number about thirty
members.
