BY S. A. BROWN & Co. Educational Department. ED WA Ul) ?. MUTTON - - AVtW. For Rooiting. Among tho many pleasant younds that fall upon ono's car, tho sound of tho Sabbath bell rings out sweet and clear. When this selection is recited many a white crowned head will droop and into many an aged heart tho happiness of thought of Sabbath days of long ago will creop. THE OLD CKLKCII ?KU?. Ring on, ring on, sweet Sabbath bell! Thy mellow tono ? love to hear, 1 was a boy when first thoy fell In melody upon my car; In those dear days long past and gone. When sporting hero in boyish glee, The magic of thy Sabbath tone. Awoke emotions deep in inc. Long years have gone, and I have strayed Out o'er the world, far, i'ar away, But thy dear tones hn/c round me played On every lovely Sabbath day. When strolling o'er the mighty plains Spread widely in tho unpeopled West, Each Sabbath morn I've heard thy strains Toiling the welcome day of rest. Upon thc Rocky mountain's crest, Where Christian feet have never trod, In tho deep bosom of tho West I've thought of theo and worshippiiduodi Bing on, sweet bell! I've come again To hear thy cherished call to prayer, There's less of plcasuto now than pain In those dear tones which fill my ear. Bing on, ring on, dear bells! ring on! Once moro l'vo come with whitened hoad To hear thee toll. The sounds aro gone! And ere this Sabbath day has sped I shall hu gone, and may no moro (Jive ear to time, sweet Sabbat li bell! Dear church and hell, so loved of yore, And childhood's happy homo farewell. Bright Jowolb. Write on blackboard and haye pu pils memorize one each day. Life is valueless without an object. -A.

The future of our country does not depend half so much upon who is our next President, or what party controls the government for tho next lour years or forty years, as it does upon tho question whether our school sys tem is maintained in a vigorous and flourishing condition, what class of teachers administer it, tho kind of od* ucntion thoy give, and tho nation's success in getting into it the vast um? jori ty of our youth.-Christian Union. The above can bc road with profit by some of the editors ol'our State, who think that the only way to im provo our schools is to cut down the teacher's salary. The real reform needed is better teachers, and not cheaper teachers. Some Things to Avoid. 1. Taking with tue to school home or personal worries. 2. Needless severity ol' look or tone in issuing orders. 3. Carelessness as to air, light, ven tilation, tte, of school room. 4. Over familiarity, petting, preju dice, sarcasm, impatience, threatening. 5. Trying to make pupils beliovo I know everything. G. Talking and giving too much as sistance to pupils. 7. Too long recitations. 8. Ruts of all kinds. Tho Ooogrnphy Class. Thc following literal translations of geographical names may bc used to awaken an interest in thc places named: Amazon, "boat destroyer;" Azores, "a hawk;" Berlin, "unculti vated land;" Bosphorous, "an ox crossing;" Bucharest, "city of joy;'' Cadiz, "shut in;" Calcutta, "a temple;" Canada, "a collection ol' huts;" Cey lon, "island of tho lions;''Chautauqua, "foggy place;" Chili, "land of snow;" China, "middle nation;" Circnssia, "where heads aro chopped oil';" Dan ube, ''deep valley;" England, "land of the Angela;",Erie, "wild cat;" JOthio pia, "where one is burned black;'* Einisterre, "tho end of lund;" Ganges, "great river;" Havre, "a harbor;'' Ire land, "the western isle;" lalo of Man, "isle of stone;" Jamaica, "country of springs;" Jutland, "land of giants;" Lena, "a sluggard;" Lyons, "hill of the raven;" Manhattan, "the town on the island;" Niagara, "neck of water;" Nova Scotia, "now Scotland;" Ork neys, "isle ol' whales;" Ostend, "cust om!

After Behool. ? How can tho toucher use to tho best advantage tho time when he is not engaged in teaching? <V great mistake will bc made unless there is some thought over this matter. The teacher may employ all his forces in stud}' and come back to the school room Unrefreshed. Or he may go lo the opposite extremo and indulge in too much recreation. In following a friend's good advice that exorcise is necessary lor health, I know of a cer tain teacher who came to his class in tho morning exhausted with a ten mile walk. The fust thing to apply your after school-hours to is in gaining or strengthening your health. How to do this depends entirely upon your constitution, physique and habits,. where one needs much exercise in the open air, another is better without it. Study yourself physically that you may make the best use of your time in this direction. Next in importance is preparation for the lessons you have assigned youl class* Never come unprepared tc them any moro than you would ex peet a pupil to undertake a recitation without study. Look up any illustra tiens and information bearing upoi them, and so interest yourself in ii that your scholars will unconscious]] imbibe your spirit. A teacher win habitually neglects this preparatiot cannot lui! to lind equal neglect fron his pupils, if any spare hours ar now at your service, apply them t general intellectual culture. Heat standard books; .stirring magazine at tides that keep pace with tho time: enlarge your mind by variety; un read to make yourself capable lc your work. Not According lo Law. The advocates of starvation wagi for teachers defend their position o the ground that, while the Slate sha give but ten or fifteen dollars month as salary, private cont ri hu tun may bo expected to swell the amoui to a decent sum. Admitting (hut th arrangement eoulil be made, it is m in accordance with the spirit of ll school system. The object of this sy tem is to give free education to a children alike, without any disci ri ni nation. This is the great (catii which, according lo Dr. Carlisle ai other leading educators, distinguish thc present system from the one ex Ls ing before the will'. Now, suppose teacher is expected to supplement li publie salary by charges on indivii uals. If such charge is made, and tl parent of a child cannot or will n pay it, the child is debarred from tl school privileges, which it is bis rig to demand. On the other hand, ?I II extra burden is is borne by portion of the pupils, and the rest a admitted free, the odious dislinotn between "pay" and "pauper" pup at onco arises, and our tuito-hcllu system is revived in the same fcatu that destroyed its usefulness. INI iii better would it bo to pay the tcnelu decent living rates for a few mont of public school, and then let p schools1, as such, be opened. Or, bi ter still, let every community raise local tax, and in this way keep t schools open 1er six months, withe pauperizing the unfortunate loache There is loo much ol this ten-doll teaching abroad in tho State now. Columbia Ilocord. Peor Poy for Tcaohoi'H. The idea seems to prevail in co'ri i quarters tba', tho salaries of the pt lie school teachers may bo reduced about oncshiVf without destroying I efficiency of .service. We fail seo ibo force of such reasoning. 'J highest salaries now paid to put school teachers, to state the jiropt lion in the very mildest manner, not a wi it more than they ought receive for.their services. 1 f Newbe County wants to prolong its sch term by reducing the salary of lonche is lo len or lifteoii dollars i month, let it'do so, but. we hope (j tho trustees of Ibo public, sehools Fairfield will continue to give teachers something like yalue recoil for their services.
