BANGOR, March 12.-Bapgor has an eight
cornered house. n house shaped like a piece Of
pie, a house with no front door. and a half house
lone side having been burned on; but the queer
est dwelling in all Maine is in the town Of
Dennysville, Washington county. 1t was built
about six years ago by Door man, who was
obliged to go to the edge OF the woods. where
land was cheap, for his lot. and utilized the
trunks of four big spruce trees, that formed n
square of sixteen feet, for the corner posts.
Pretty soon the poor man went West to make
queer house, In Ave years he returned as poor
MS when he left. He found that in tho mean.
while his family had risen In the world. The
four live corner posts had just grown up about
four feet and carried the house with them. 1t

The extraordinary care that the Gre.
sian boy received In his formative years
made his moral training more effective
than that inculcated by the most careful
Of modern parents. His general educa-
tion. coupled with skillful and continu-
GUS physical instruction, produced a
moral cultivation very similar and fully
as strict as that the Christian father
deems necessary for his daughters.
A pedagogue, generally an old and
trusted slave. led the boys to school and
called for them after it closed, carried
the books, looked out for the little boys,
kept the older ones from fighting and
falling into bad company and had .
general oversight Of their conduct and
street form. He was by no means a
schoolmaster or ven a private tutor, not
even being allowed to enter the school,
room. Oftentimes ignorant in the ex-
treme, he was chosen simply because Of
his loyalty to the family and some
times. I fear, because he was unfit for
any other occupation. Though the butt
of the boys ridicule as we'll as that Of
the comic poets and low wits Of the day,
he did an i%ncalculable service in prevent
ing vicious companionships and keeping
pure the minds of those intrusted to his
charge.
The child was never sent off to board
ing school, but boys attended the day
school; town life prevailed. Besides,
that sentiment that zealously guarded
the boys purity with q p~edadogue from
his sixth to his sixteenth year could
brook no intermission Of personal over
sight. Education was essentially pri-
vate. the state having jurisdiction elm
ply over the moral and not the profes.
