A Western Simile. A Western college
professor thus "illustrates" an important
fcranch of a young lady's education : "Be
tides this, there is the piano, where the fin
gers are compelled to travel more in one day
than the feet do ia one term ; and the mind
must be kept on the stretch over spider-tracked
music till the reason reels and the brain
swims and the notes on the page before her
carry no more idea to the mind than so many
tadpoles trying to climb over a five barred rail
fence.
Ciscisii.il, according to an estimate of the
Gazette, has a population of 214,000 inhabi
tants, an increase in ten years of orer 87,000
The value ofjrnanufactures and industry is set
down at $80,000,000.

Ma. Editok : Dear Sir t As yon have devo
ted a column cf yor.r interesting sheet to the
great cause of Education, and have given a
general invitation to all who feel disposed to
contribute, I, as a lover of our 'public school
system," will throw in my mite, hoping that
it may, in some slight degree, add to the gen
eral interest of that great scheme, on which
hangs the lutare destiny of our glorions Re
public. The promoters of this great reforming
engine, Lave labored for a number oi years, ia
this county, as well as in many ethers, under
the most trying circumstaices. The good de
signs of their untiring efforts have, time and
again, been frustrated, through the delinquen
cy of a few individuals. TLey have, with grief
and vexation, witnessed the small degree of
interest taken by their neighbors ia this great
cause, and have in many instances beheld, to
their great regret, the flame, which Lad been
kindled with so much care and toil, which was
expected to shed light and knowledge upon all
around, and before whose piercing rays igno
rance and superstition must always retreat,
dwindle and die, and again a moral gloom set
tle down upon them. This was when the sys
tem was in its infancy. Still they toiled on.
With unrelenting diligence they- buffeted the
storms of opposition, aDd cow, as a reward cf
their untiring zeal, they have the extreme de
light of seeing the dawn of a glorious morn
bursting forth, before whose light the gloomy
vapors of ignorance, and opposition retreat,
as darkness retreats before the morning sun.
Their labors are now being crowned with sac
cess. A general interest has been awakened.
New shool-liouses are being erected. Where
once stood the dismal log cabin, we now be
hold a cheerful, commodious building. Where
once was employed, as teacher, the "surly,
crusty, old bachelor," whose look was suffi
cient to throw a timid child into spasms, and
who only knew enough to brandish the rod
over the head of the terrified pupil, we now
have employed pleasant, intelligent teachers,
who, by their kind looks and gentle manners,
at once secure the love and respect of their
pupils, and this being accomplished, they
scarcely find occasion for the application ol
the rod. Instead of the school-room being rc- j
girded by pupils with terror, it is looked upon
with delight as the very source and fountain
of their enjoyments ; and its attractions are o
great that parents are no longer necessitated
to compel their children to attend, but with a
light heart and a quick step they r.ro oil every
morning, at an early hour, toward the attrac
tive mansion. The improvement of the "pub
lic schools" has, for the last three years, been
so rapid in this county, that even their most
embittered enemies are compelled to acknowl
edge their upward march ; sa l many, very
many, who were once hostile to the system,
are now acquiescing, and even acknowledge
its utility. Eut, after all this, there is still
room for impovement. Our school have not
yet reached their zenith of perfection. Some
districts are still destitute of comfortable Lou
ses; others have their progress retarded by
having in oCice delinquent and arbitrary Di
rectors ; and it remains fur us to toil on, to
mrmount all obstacles, to build new houses
where they are needed, to elect more zealous
Directors instead of those who neglect their
duty, and thus, ly diligently discharging ev
ery duty, our schools, io this sequestered re
gion, will mount upward, and scaring aloft,
will scale one poii.t of perfection after another,
until they will compete with those of the east
ern counties, this "wilderness bud ad Llos
Eom like the rose," and those flexible, mountain-reared
intellects become expanded and
polished to their utmost extent. The public
benefit received from the cultivation of the
moral and intellectual faculties of all classes.
13 sufficient to remunerate all oar t.-.ll. I: is
the spontaneous establishment of colleges and
seminaries, the moral instruction s.lordcd by
them, the education cf the lower classes, and
the high spirit of refinement prompted by the !
influence of our free institutions, that free our
northern States from those glaring outrages
committed by enthusiastic mobs, and render
our lives and property secure In the
Southern States, a pedantic, haughty, domi
neering spirit exists among the controlling
classes; sensual, debasing amusements are
practiced among the lower ; and the cultiva
tion of the moral and intellectual faculties is
looked upon with too little interest.
Then let tit arouse, and apply our shoulders
to the great wheel of reformation with re
doubled vigor. J. L. K.

that a Yankee, in walking in St. Petersburg,
one muddy day, met the Grand Duke Constan
tino. The sidewalk was not wide enough for
two persons to pass, and the street was very
deep in filth whereupon the American took
a silver rouble from his pocket, shook it in
his closed hand, and cried out : "Crown or
tail!" "Crown" answered the Grand Duke.
"Your highness has won," said the American,
looking at the rouble and stepping Into the
mud. The next day the American was invit
ed by the Grand Duke to dinner.

The. Great Library Offer. Ascitis Getting KicJt !
The union of EMERSON'S MAGAZINE and
PUTNAM'S MONTHLY Las given to the consoli
dated work a circulation second to but one similar
publication in the country, and has secured for it
a combination of literary and artistic talent prob
ably nnnvallea ty any otlier lnagnzme in tho
world. Luring the first month, the sale in the trade
and demand from subscribers exceeded fcfl.000 co
pies, and the numbers already issued of the con
solidated work are universally conceded to have
surpassed, ic the richness of their literary contents,
and tnc beauty and protuscness of their pictorial
illustrations, anv ina?:iz!nc ever oeiore issued from
the American press. Encourared bv these eviden
ces of favor, the publishers have determined to
commence tue new volume in Januarv with still
additional attractions, and to -fTer such induce
ments to subscribers as cannot fail to place it, in
circulation, at the head cf American magazines.
With this i iew they now announce the following
splendiil programme. They have purchased that
superb and costly otecl-plate engraving,
-Tniu LAST SUPPER,'
and will present a copy of it to every three-dollar
subscriber fur the year IsCS. It was engraved at
a cost l over feu.O'JU. tv tne late celebrated A. L.
Dick, from the original of Raphael Morghen. after
Leonardo Da Vinc-i, and is the largest steel-plate
engraving ever executed in this country, being
turec tunes tne sizeot theorcliuary 5-Jengravings
The first impressions of this eugraving are held
at 10. and it was the intention of the artist that
none of the engravings sboul J ever be offered for
a less sum tuan being richly worth that amount.
Thus every three-doliar subsiribar will receive
the Magazine one year cheap at S3 and this
splendid engraving, richly worth So ; thus get
ting for S3 the value of Eight dollars.
We shall commence striking off the engravings
luiucaiatcly, yet it can haruly be expected that
impressions of so large a plate can be taken as fast
as they will be called for by subscribers. Weskall,
therefore, furnish them in the order in which sub
scriptions are received Those who desire to ob
tain their engravings early, and from the first im
pressions, should send in their subscriptions with
out delay The engraving can be sent on rollers,
by mail, or ia any other manner, as subscribers
shall order.
$20,000 IN WORKS OF ART.
In addition to the superb engravin of '-TnE
LAST SUPPER," which will be presented so eve
ry threc-doilar subscriber far 1S5S. the publishers
have completed arrangementc for the clia'ribution.
ou the 25th day of December. of a series of
splendid works of art. consisting of one hundred
rich and rare Old Paintings, valued at from $100
to S1.0UU each. Also, 2.0uiiinift-l.:S'.cctStcl-plate
Engravings, worth from S3 to S5 each, and 1,000
choice lloiidav Books, worth frct: 65 to 55 each,
making, in all.'over THREE THOUSAND GIFTS,
w. rth TWENTY THOUSAND DOLLARS.
Iuelofe 'bo to the publishers tmd you will com
mence receiving the Magaiice by return mail.
You will also receive with the first copy a num
bered subscription receipt entitling you to the En
graving of "THE LAST SUPPER," and n chance
to draw one of these "Three Thousand Fiizet."'
REASONS WHY Yc? EHut LU SR3SCBI3E FOR
EKESSOH'S IIAOAZIliE i-OH IS'.S.
First : Because its literary contents will, during
the ye?r, embrace contributions fn.ra over o.ie
hundred different writers and toinkeis, num
bering among them the luost dhjiicguishei of A
icerican authors.
Second: Because its editorial departments. '-Our
Studio," '-OnrWindow," and '-Our Olio," will each
be conducted by aa able edisor and it will sur
pass, in the variety and richness of its editorial
contents, any other magazine.
Third: Because it will cor:tnin,during the year,
nearly six thousand original pictorial illustrations
from designs by the first American artists.
Fourth : Because for the sum of ?1 you will re
ceive this splendid monthly, more richly worth
that sum than any other magazine, and the superb
engraving of "Tut Lut Supper,'- worth Si.
Fifth : Because you will 'very likely draw ono
of the three thousand prizes to be distributed on
the 25th day of December. 1S53 perhaps one
that is worth One T'lousj.id Dollar.
Notwithstanding that tbeso extraoriinarv in
ducements can hardly fail to accomplish th'a ob
jects oi ice puuiisncrs wucout lurti.er efforts, vet
they have determined to continue through the year
THE GREAT LIBRARY OFFEP..
To any person who will get up a club of twenty
four subscribers, either at one orxaore post-oSccs.
we will present a splendid Library, consisting of
over Forty Large Bound Volumes, em brae ntr the
most popular works ia the market ' The elub'mav
be formed at thee'ub price. S2ayc.ir. without the
engraving, or at the full price. S3, with tho engra
ving of The Last Supper to t-ach subscriber. Liit
ar.d description cf the Library, ar.d specimen copy
of the ciagaziae. will ba forwariled on receipt of
25 cents. Over 200 Libraries.' or S, 000 volumes,
have already been distributed ia accordance with
this oCer, and we should be glad of an opportuni
ty to furnish a Library to every clergyman, to ev
ery school teacher, or to some one at every post
office in the country.
