BEAUTY SPOT ACADEMY, , The closing- exercises of this schcol in troductory to the Christmas holidays, came off Friday., the iSth inst. The oe-' casion was most enjoyable from every standpoint. The attendance, incorrora ating the most cultured element ol our tl? at 2 o clock the childrbT*{-pe?ple,.was large and appreciative. 1 tuon the nineo und fop two! VThe cresent incumbents~of this'nc o ro quict day, aps to inclement sept young and old ^ost of the day. There al?b a marked absence o? strong drink, or ugly behavior. It was ps quiet as Sunday. Thc days previous were, indeed, fine, and our streets were orowded from morn till night with "present" Beekers, and our merchants report the largest and best tr ado for years. Tho sales included horses, buggies, harness and furniture. They all wore smiles at their success in sup plying the domar ds. The young people were doubly remembered.

Breeden, it was a pretty sight, perfectly white and covered with gold, silver and colored orna ments and colored candles, and well ladened with presents. . Thc Methodist school had theirs \riday evening, which was also highly.enjoyed by the young folks. Tlie Baptist srhool Lastemi cf a I reo were given a "straw" ride in upon ..the stage and for two perhaps they entertained, most ?fully, the largo and apprecin ndienee. Stnga, dialogues&nd itationa followed each other$astv ?ery much to the delight of the friends,' neighbors and visitors present. I am *-rr y T haven't tte programme so that I might mention the pieces and the names of those who took part. I will suffice, however, to say all did wojl. At the close of the enter tainment a well filled Christmas Tree was uoveiled and you conld detect ut once a deep interest on tho part of the school in this part of the exercises We all saw the tree was full but were surprised at the numlor of the pretty and useful presents^otf-^lvaB name after name was called again and ?gain. ''Old - Santa"?laW. friend J.

The present incumbents"of this popux tar institution are Miss Hattie McArthur in charge ol the literary department and 'Miss, Tn?ry Townsend of the musical and art* department. The exhibition gave pvoud testimony to their efficiency. We neS^er attended one where the pu* pils individually and collectively were so thoroughly prepared. Partiality, in the training, was noticed by its conspicuous absence, in the. Intelligent happy lacea if.the children written in broad charac ters the fact that the same careful train, ing of each and all was given without discrimination, thus indicating that tlus school, at least tinder its present able and judicious management, is free from that greatest of all curses, partiality. It was very graying to s?? a school that ls entirely. tree from this devastir.g element, at this lime especially, when in almost every community there are a lew men who arrogate to themselves the right to wield its destiny, education ally and otherwise, and school teachers < have to conciliate their lavor by compro ?C wormaUBhip. mising their most sacred obligations.
