JB ID uo IO asr^-X,- J. K. HARTZLEE, Belleville. Mifflin County, Editor For the Educational Column. A Day With the Orphans- These are prolific times, and great events and enterprises are born. Among others that will illumine the pages of history but lew will outshine in philanthropic grandeur that devot ed to the origin and progress of Sol diers' Orphan Schools. Children Avhose fathers fell in our late struggle are gathered together by the State, eared for and educated as faithfully and as tenderly as a kind in telligent father, with ample means would do. Could the State, in any other way, to the same extent, repair the loss to the children and to herself? How much better to erect moral and intel lectual monuments to the honor of pa rents and to the State than monu ments of marble or granite ? How much more sensible and christian-like to remember in this way the " bone and sinew" of the land which really gave the death blows to treason than to expend all our public thanks and money in the erection of monuments to the memory of men whom fortune I made great? Verily we are teaching the nations of the tvorld a lesson. A short time since, while on a visit to the school at McAlisterville, I was deeply impressed with the grandeur ol the movement, and felt proud that for once, at least, and in so noble an enter prise. Pennsylvania leads the nation, the world. Are any prejudiced against these schools, let them visit one well eon ducted, and see the happy, cheerful, joyous faces of the children, the care and attention paid them, and hear them sing in their sweet, impressive tones such songs as "Tenting on the old campground," " Orphans' prayer," &e., and surely, if they have the mer est spark of humanity left, the}' will go home ashamed ol their prejudices. I myself had no prejudices to be ashamed of but was really not prepar ed for such a treat,—threatened the " little lolks" I would tell the people of Mifflin county all about them. I arrived :n tlie morning and was in troduced to Mr. Caveny, the acting principal, a gentleman much beloved by the children, whom they delight to call papa. Mr. Caveny took great pleasure in showing me into the differ ent departments of the school and ex plaining its general working. I was first shown into tlfl? clothing depart ment, where, to my surprise, 1 learned that all the clothing for the one hund red and fifty-five boys and girls are made by the orphan girls themselves under the superintendence of two la dies, one principal. ,he other assistant. Here 1 was J WuL struck with the home-like appc ance of things. Girls were sitting Dusily plying the needle with cheerful countenances, while the elderly ladies, mother-like, were mov ing about preparing work, giving in structions, &c. I there learned the modus operandi of the school. That each boy and girl was required to work two hours a day, and study and recite lessons six, making eight hours em ployment for each day. That the girls were taught and required to do all kinds of housework,—sewing, baking, making beds, scrubbing, washing dish es, taking care of garden, &c. That the boys learn farm labor on twenty eight acres of land belonging to the institution, which is farmed principal ly in garden vegetables. In short, I found it was only a family on a large scale. I was then shown into the primary department of the school under the charge ot a lady from New York, and was highly pleased, delighted indeed, with her teaching, as well as with the deportment of the pupils and the inte rest they manifested in their lessons. Next I \\as conducted into the princi pal school room in which were seated about one hundred and fifty boys and gills whose brightly beaming eyes re flecting radiance on every side, gave assurance of contented, happy hearts beating beneath their bosoms. Then they sung, and what a volume of unwritten history unfolded itself as they breathed forth in beautiful song the touching words of " Tenting on the old camp ground," "The orphans' pra\ ci, &c. Iho scenes of many a camp ground with its sick and dying fatheis whose arlections had clustered BO tenderly around these children • the fiery ordeal of battle when put' ting forth a brief petition for the dear ones at home; many a father bravely and heroically met the foe and poured out his precious life for the salvation of his country; then the grandeur of the thought that the State has heard the prayer of the dying hero and has become a father to tho fi.tborlcM, fool, ing like a kind parent to their interest aod to their welfare. All this, torna do-like, rushed through the spiritual heavens sweeping everything before it, at least, so far as my vision extend ed. While addressing the children, which I was kindly requested to do, I asked them, How many are tired of this place and would like to go home ? All that are, raise hands. Not a single hand went up. All was quiet. I then said ail who like this place and would rather stay thau go home, raise bands. Quick as lightning every hand went up at fuH arms length. I wish those grumblers and propagators of false hood from Mifflin county had been there. Next, dinner being ready, we were ushered into the diuing room, and soon two drummer boys and one with fife struck up a lively air, to which the boys in fine order marched to their seats at table. Thus tbey continued fthile the girls took their places, pro moting in a wonderful manner an air of cheerfulness. We had a plain sub stantial dinner in the shape of potpie. Ac. lam satisfied that their living is as good as any children's ought to be. They are taught politeness at table, boys being required to help the girls, and no one is allowed to leave until tap of bell, when all leave in order. in the afternoon 1 visited the other teachers and heard their classes recite, and am convinced that the orphans are more highly favored in teachers than children generally are. 1 was highly-pleased with the school in every respect and advise people to visit it. The children generally are clean and well clad—are required to attend worship daily, are taught hab its of obedience, diligence, industry and politeness, and with the good teachers they have, are making fine progress in their studies. * M.
