A Hill Street man was called into the coun try, off the line of railroad, for a week, and came hack a perfect wreck occasioned by the loss of sleep. It was not until he was lodg ed in his own domicil, within a few yards of the screaming, hissing, rattling and rumbling of at least forty engines and two thousand ears that he fell into a gentle slumber and was on ly awakened on Sunday morning when all had become quiet.

Mr. EDITOR.-Although I ant unaccustom ed to writing for the public, I cannot refrain penning a few lines, descriptive of a Sefton' Festival, in which I participated at the Curl man school, (better known as Amos Smith's Temple), in Cass township, gotten t.p by J. C. Clarkson, who has just completed a five months' term amid unbounded regret. An immense audience assembled within this his toric temple, filling it to its utmost capacity. The school room was most charmi tgly deco rated for the occasion. Suspended from the ceiling were rustic baskets, and beautiful wreaths. Above each window was erected as elaborate device formed of green. The black boards and teacher's desk were gracefully fes tooned with evergreens, relieved with a rare species of training mess; procured from the swamps of the valley. Rustic stands and bask ets of plants and flowers adorned the table, making a scene of exquisite beauty. The programme was varied and interesting. Chants, choruses, a responsive service. essays by young ladies and gentleman , speeches by little masters, duets by little misses, occupied two hours, and was a marked success. The variety, appropriateness, and excellence of its exercises, and the contagious gladness of its giving, made an era in the history of the school. The reading classes, did so well in spelling, reading and speaking, as to call forth great admiration. When the parents and friends rose to utter strong,sbrave words for education and truth, it was plain that the heart and brain had not only been touched, but also the pocket. for they then and there made a present of $30.00 to their energetic teacher, who has been well tried and proved in the school room, having the attribute— with talent—of what is popularly called "push." But as your correspondent is a great lover of the beautiful, he mustwithont auy prevar ication pronounce the dinner the charm of the occasion. The table was surrounded at 2o'cloek—not with silks,and velvets, and silver forks, nor dependent on the caprice of some fine gentleman or lady who have nothing but caprice and change to give them importance and a sensation ; but fathers and mothers, sons and daughters, brothers and sisters, the very representatives and embodiment of the very smile of a country room—here in the school room mingle together in thanksgiving around the "festal board"—partake of its bounties—engage in that free interchange of thought and feeling which always exert an in fluence upon each other's mind, and does mush to moald the character of the children. Why should not such occasions be enjoyed in the school room where education is begun. character formed. principles implanted, and where are really made the men who are to be the controllers of the State in days not far distant? Looking at our common schools only in the light of their relation to the pub lic welfare, it is of the highest importance that here, the best and holiest influence should he allowed the fullest sway. Let pa rents and children thus mingle together that we may help the young to overcome the temp tations and diffieulties in their path, and min ister encouragement in hours of weakness and despondency. Their life is a continual education in one way or another, and for its right conduct is needed first of all that influ ence which will make them better and hap pier in every way and in every relation. Immediately after dinner had been served, the children (40 in number), were conducted to their desks where a collection of choice candies awaited their disposal. It was amus ing to see prize boxes opened and little trink ets of various descriptions exhibited. The committee consisting of Jesse Curfman, Mrs. Mary Smith and Miss Sophia Keith, who had been appointed to award to the best reader, a beautiful book on elocution, was presented by the teacher, in behalf of the committee, in a neat and appropriate speech, to Miss Mary Hamilton, whose rendering of Bryant's"Than atopsis' was simply grand for a young girl. II would like much to give some extracts from an essay prepared, and read by Miss Bell Curfman, on"fashion," for it certainly deserves a place in your columns ; but I have made my article too long already, and consequently will close by saying, that the delighted audi ence manifested regret, when Mr.rlarkson, in a few well chosen words, sent us on our way homeward. D. H. Cass Township, April 8, 1873. Letter from Hare's Valley. MR. Eamon :—I have been looking over your last issues to see if you had any corre spondent from Hare's Valley, and as you have not, swill ask the privilege to be one for the present. We live in one of those beautiful mountain valleys, situated between Jack's mountain and Clear Ridge. It extends from Mapleton to the Three Springs, a distance of sixteen miles. The valley derived its name from a man by the name of Jacob Hare, one of the first settlers in this part of the country, but he was killed by the ladians on account of his treachery to them. We have an enterpris ing set of citizens, most of the mare farmers who are busily engaged in preparing for their Spring work. The principal products of the Valley are good-looking girls, old women and babies,—one man alone is the father of 27 children and the prospects are very promis ing for several more. I saw a letter in the Globe, a few weeks ago, from Smith's Valley, signed, "Gleanings." The correspondent tells the Reverend Globe the features of their Valley and the quantity and quality of Iron Ore existing in said Valley, as though lie knew all about it. There have been a few men smelling around and digging a few post boles in hopes of finding ore, but as yet they have not succeeded in getting more than a wheelbarrow load nor is there any likeli hood of there getting more. He winds up by saying -go in Professer, you have lots of friends iu this section of the country. I deny the assertion. We are too well acquainted with Guss and the Orphan Girl scandal for him to have many friends in this section of the country." But I suppose the writer of that article is a friend of Guss and a member of Oust accursed Ring called the ' , Peoples' League." If he is, be is ins better than Guss. The debating season is about over for this Winter. We have had a very interestingtime of it and all claim to have been benefited by them. Mr. Michael Stever carried off the honors of the day as a debator. As your most excellent paper is generally crowded with let ters from different parts of the county, 1 will bring my letter to a close, and give you more room for some one else. No more at present.
