Y W. W. F. BRIGHT, EDITOR. BLANKS FOR TRUSTEN.-AnnfuIal Reports have boon sent out to the Chairman of Bdard. They are re quested to make out and send to the School Commissioneid0 offico by the 15th of September. We hope they will give what in formatian they can .on -tho blank for private schools that have been taught in the bounds of their dis trict. The trustees of Bethlehem have moved their house to the center, a little off tho main road in a shady grove. When completed it will be an excellent one. We found Miss Mary Allgood here with a full school, well cared for. At Roanoko, number 21,we found S. W. O'Doll with a good enroll ment. There wore neither maps, charts, nor globes, but more black board than at any place yet visit od. .Tho house, a new one, is 20x 36, firo-placo and stove, and the trustees havo threatened to coil it aftor the presont closos. Tho Mica school is taught by Miss Lou. M. Philpot. This is her first public school and we believe sho has not missed her calling. Thoro is a laigo map of South ca rolina on the wall, but owing to a little misunderstanding, the globe, blackboard, charts, &c., had not arrived. The houso is 20x36, not yet fCiished, but the trustees ox poet to have it completed by christ mnas. In nuinbor 34, carpenter's crook, wo found Miss Josio Robinson in a now house with a good enroll mont for the first woek. Wo noti ced that the seats wore a little too high for tho littlo onos-thoir foot ought to rest on the floor. The blackboard did not work woll, al though now. IMIrs. A. J. Butlor was found at. the Olga school, and we think. did good work there under groat diffi culties. Trho houso usod is in bad condition and but poorly firnish ed. The trustees are about build ing one of their own. Only two Iifths of the p)upils enter in alpha bot, but the school-mastor is abroad with his primoer. What a change to take placo here soon. More than forty-one per cent. of the English people could not write their namos when the Queen as conded the throne. The propor tion in that condition has now been rodul~ced to seven per cent. TEACh THE CHID A SONG.-En courage your little ones to sing. Music lessons cure the headache. Of ten and of ten the wvords of a song, the swoot melody, linger in the heart after the voice is 'silent, and keep alive the courage which had almost died: anxiety and heart p~ainl cause heart disease, and after that quickly cornes death. Song sweetens toil and it is imperative that parents and teachers should aim to increase this means of hap pinoss for the children, if for no ether means than to strengthen their minds and hearts for the la bors to be borne in mature years. Messenger. W~OF~FoRD FITTING SCHOOL, Spartanburg, s. c.

(Published by IRequest.] ive me the price of a drink, , r; I'm noth ing but a bum, [ don't want aught to eat, sir; only a glass of rum. The old tale's worn and bare sir; I never ask for bread, f But I'd like to have a drink, ilr, before I go to bed. Before I go ts bed? that'd good; for I've known none for years, For I'm nothing but a bun, you'..ee, only a' but of sneers. Don't turn away and shake your head; be kind to a poor old bun; Who asks you, sir, in pity's name, for just one glass of rum. Perhaps you never drink,' sir; never touch the flowing glass; Then have pity on the wretches as they go staggering past. Never look (town upon them you know not what they feel, For we love the glass so dearly we lie, and cheat and steal. Or perhaps you drink yourself, sir; a glass once inl a while? But you can never kuow our feelings, or realize our trial, To us, the glass is :all we have; it is more to us than life. 'is more to us than Hoaven or hell, or hap py home or wife, Yes, I had a wife once, sir, as fair as any of her kind, She loved me truly too, sir, until I was un kind. But ruim to me was nore than she, more thlan life itself, It's more than fa e or honor, sir; more than even weaV. It becomes a demon in my breast that calls aloud for rui, And for the love of it alone, I became a sor did bum. I left a happy hhme in utter misery, by a choice of my own. I left my Innocent children the wicked streets to roam. You can't conceive how it is, sir, to have a love like this, To prefer a life of misery to a happy home of bliss. Happiness is not to his liking, sir, my de mon drives ine on. I1e never leaves my breast air, from sunrise to the dawn. For God's sake don't leave lme, sir; unless you give me drink, Itis my hope, my staff of life, think of that man, think. It drives ine mad if I get it not. it racks my soul with pain, It cries aloud to be appeased, don't let it cry in vain. Yes, sir, I an mad without my drink, my brain seems all afire, And I go a willing clog through life's deep ost mire. Sometimes I see a hideous form, then a smiling fiend, Iaiinit.ing my soul with an abject fear, until at glass I've gleianed. Dh ! man, it is my only hope, it makes me young again. It eases all my sorrow ,air ; and banishes all my pain, It warms my blood as no fire can, it lifts my vavering heart,! It fils my soul with a no, bright hope that nothing else impatrts. If you will lbut give mc at (drink, sir, no harma will ever comie, For each drink renmews thae life of the poor Thanks sir, thanks, God buless you, sir, 'tis only fronm a bnm. lBut his greiatest joy is hidden, sir, in his tiny glass of ruim. With trembling fingers lae caught the prize atnd straggerhing to the door Calling aloud for his 'glass of rum, fell dead upon the floor. __________ (Boston Herald.
