W. Shell, of thio co n tj. treat to Atlaniu recently. On the evening of tho 15th inst., he attended a Method let Church service. Fred found himself in the neighborhood of a hand some sweet-slxteon Atlanta belle and had passed to her a note asking leave to escort her home. Ono of twoyoung gentlcmon passed the note and the other sniggered. Tho pretty inUs Bm?od. It seems that Fred was not up on the right thing in Atlanta. A po liceman way worshipping near by who took it all in and after the service es corted Fred to tho police etatton under a charge of disturbing tho publio w or ship. Fred made the necessary deposit and went home, having loarned tho les son that in Atlanta decorum must bo observed, at loast in church. The young man who sniggered and his com panion were likewise given a lesson in church behavior. The Atlanta papers made a parade of tho incident and em phasize tho fact of Frod being tho son of an ox-Congressman, as if that fact should bar tho young gentloman from boing gallant to a sweot creature. Nothing is said, but it is assumed that tho little lady who smiled a sweet as sont escaped tho virtous indignation of tho righteous prosecutors. The won der is that a Laurens boy, should bo go ing into ccstaeles over other than our own dear darlings. Tho fact that Napoleon's military career began during the first year of his life, with tho forced marchou which by his command his father executed at dead of night, is pointed out by Mr. John Kcndriek Bangs in his Mr. Bona parte of Corsica; and such items of in formation?intlmntoly porsonal and in teresting, yet hitherto unpublished? will bo found in surprising abundance. Tho crowning merit of a humorous work is that tho author should know where to draw the line, and at that precise point it has hero boon drawn. In this book thero is no vlolonco done to history; tho author has had regard for the recognized authorities, but has embroidered tho thought with wit? not otherwise than as tho artist, H. W. McViekar, has enllvonod and decorat ed tho pages with drawings. (Harpor & Brothors.)

As my pupils have favored me with a holiday, I will spend part of the time in writing a few lines for the Teacheis' Column. We are having beautiful weather now, but I fear it will not prove an advantage to some of I he coun try schools, as in' many localities the older pupils have to leave school to assist in the farm work. But even if the schools do decline in numbers teachers should see that the school work does not become tedious and irksome. Make the latter port of the term as interest ing and attractive as the first?more so, if possible. In order to make the teaching of any study a success a teacher needs not only thorough preparation, but pleniy of enthusiasm for the work. When about to take up a new sub ject a favorable fust impression is worth a great deal. Let a child once get the idea that he hates a study and it will seem hard and dry all the way through. Endeavor to keep the child's cu riosty excited and flavor the dry facts with bits of interesting and impressive stories, so that the les son will not drag, neither will it be forgotten. Take Geography for instarcc.? First, let the map of a country be thoroughly studied, locating the different countries or States, and learning something interesting of each. Name the exports and imports of each and compare them to those of our country. It avails little to load the pupil's memory with a long list of produc tions having no interest for him. He commits to memory for to day's lesson, to morrow he forgets. Relate interesting stories of the home life of the different nations, their occupations, customs, dress, etc. Compare child life ol foreign countries to that of our own, de scribing their toys, games and cos tumes. The child will then realize that the country is something more than a piece of paper consisting of various colors, peppered with black clots called by hard names, and traversed by crooked black lines running here and there, with some more hard names. The girls will long to visit the "City of the Sea," with its streets of water and pretty gondolas. Some of the children will admire the camel, and desire to join a caravan across the Great Desert. The boys will want to hunt tigers in India. If the children know that they will be called upon to reproduce a talk they will be more attentive. Train pupils to be on the alert. May L. Tbague.

To in dustry and economy, and self-re liance. Do not take too much ad vice. Tiie business man mufit keep the helm and btccr bis oy'.n ship. In early life every one /iould be taught to think for hp/self. A man's talents arc neycr Lvwught out until be is thrown to aonic extent upon bis own resources. If in ev ery difficulty he has only to his principal, and then implicitly obey the directions be may receive, he will never acquire that aptitude of perception necessary to those who bold important stations. A certain degree of independent feeling is essential to the full development of the intellectual character. Tilings a Farmer Should Not Do. A farmer should never under take to cultivate more land than he can do thoroughly ?half tilled land is growing poorer?well tilled land is constantly improving. A farmer should never keep more cattle, sheep or bogs, than he can keep in good order; an animal in high order the first of December, is already half wintered. A farmer should never depend on bis neighbor for what be can, by care and good management, pro duce on his own farm ; he should never beg fruit while he can plant trees, or borrow tools while he can make or buy; a high authority has said, the borrower is a servant to the lender. The farmer should never be so immersed in political matters as to forget to sow bis wheat, dig his potatoes and kank up his cellar; nor should be be so inattentive to theni as to remain ignorant of those great questions uf National and Stale policy which will always ag itate more or less a free people; No farmer should allow the re proach of neglecting education to lie against himself or family; if knowledge is power, the beginning of it should be early and deeply laid in the district school.
