Brown, teacher, registered 51. present 40; Mycrsburg school, Wysox, O. Tanner, teacher. All the schools seem to be succeeding well. F. Beloud, though teaching his first term, is well liked by the pupils, and is thorough and progressive. Heard fine grammar class in Village school. Noticed fine colored wall maps in Myers burg school, drawn by pupils, and prepara tion for the same in Union school. The Borough and Village schools are only a few rods apart, and should be united and graded. The townshipand the borough mightcaeh pay its own ,teacher as at present, and then have all the advantages of a graded school. Mr. Brown, though an excellent teacher, cannot do all that is necessary with so large a school, and advanced classes. If Xmas day on Thursday be, A windy winter ye shall see; Windy weather in each week. And hard tempests, strong and thick; The summer shall be good and dry. Corn and basts shall multiply; That year is good for lands to till; Kings and princes shall die by skill; If a child born that day shall be, Tt shall happen right well for he; Of deeds he shall be good and stable, Wise of speech and reasonable, Whoso that day goes thieving about, He shall be punished without doubt; And if sickness that day betide. It shall quickly from thee glide. Personal. Miss MATTIE MAI.I.ORY is spending the holiday vacation school of with her parents in this place. Rev. A.
