Arbor Day.

In a recent issue OF The ApvER-
T!SER we printed the law of ,96 pro-
vlding for an Arbor Day to be observ-
ed by the public schools of the State.
the third Friday in November of each
year. In the arid regions beyond the
Missl!sippl denuded of trees for thous-
anas OF years the new and Intelligent
setViers Tor q quarter of u century have
oeen engaged in planting trees la

Ielllgent patriotic citizens have become
alarmed at the wanton destruction of
cur beautiful forests for speculative
purposes.
IL was a dne sentiment in our legis-
iature to adopt q measure to
In our youth a love for the beautiful
without regard to q unitarian idea.
we are glad to note that cur SUPER
~lntendent of Education, Mr.. Brooks.
took n very proper interest in the sub
Ject and urged The observance of the
day.
At the school in this city, supint N.
aent Jones, at noon of Friday had atthe
chapel OF the School building Rev.
Robert Adams, Rev. j. ID. Pitts, Rev.
w. b. Duncan and Rev. w. s. Holmes.
all OF whom made appropriate and elo-
quent remarks to the students of the
school upon this very important matter.
The various grades of the school un-
der their teachers proceeded to the
campus and each g,adc planted and
christened a graceful oak. from the low
lands OF u native forest. There were
other pretty ceremonies we regret we
have not space to detail. Master Car
los Moseley, n of the gallant boys of
The school with his drum m~arshaled
the interesting procession from the
chapel to grounds. We trust that Pro-
lessor Jones will see hat the trees are
properly watered during the prevail
ing dry weather and thai they will be
guarded from future injury. Thus the
children have a noble aud inspiring
lesson towards Identifying and preserv-
ing the health of their county.

Tic Eighth Wonder.

The audience at C%olumbia's play
house last night was of such proper
tons as is calculated to mako the heart
of any manager glad. The house was
crowded from pit to dome, large num-
bers of ladies occupying seats in the
gallery. Every one was OF course
delighted with the harmony Of sweet
sounds which Blind Tom, the musical
wonder Of the age, called forth from
the piauO, an instrument Of which he
is supreme master. Perhaps the best
number on the programme, aud the one
executed with expression, was "The
Last Hope,'' by Gottschalk. This
beautiful production was played with
great feeling and caused Tom to be
over whelmed with applause. Tom is
still a wonder and does not dateriorate
with age.-The State Columbia. 8. @.
Blind Tom will appear at the Opera
House next Tuesday night, Nov. Goth.
