Of the Hirford fichool, which - we look imen

Sweet, makes the following griitifying report :
"The past year has been to us one of special
prosperity and encouragement. The entire
and hearty co=operation-on the part ol pupdg,
teachers and all connected with the school, in
their endeavors to rtnder this school worthyof
the support of those who provide for the or
phan children, is evident, in the advanced
standing that It holds educationally, socially
and morally. A home , influence pervades the
institution—the ihildrenV feeling that they are
cared for by friends In whom they can place
implicit confidence. ' There is a general desire
on the part of the children to make it pleasant
for each other, and especial pains is taken to
remove the "home-sickness" of these who leave
heir homes for the first time, for their new one
with ug.
"During the past yeart - qty-seven have been
admitted; only seven of those aie of the class
admitted under the act of :March 18,1875. An
encouraging feature is in the fact that the ma
jority of the 'children entering the school dur
ing the year is frqin localities where the faciii.
ties for obtaining an education are good, and
many are consequently ready to be admitted
into our higher grades. The pupils have been
taught to think for themselves. and especial
pains has been taken tome to all a knowledge
of those things met with in actual business life,
so that they may not be mere book scholars.
"Those attaining to the seventh And eighth
grades receive instruction in all the higher',En=
glish branches ; and those who have gone from
ourtightb gmdes, during the last year, to the
Normal schools, have graduated in one year;
and those remaining with us - occupy the same
standing. • •
"The religious improvement has been good.
Divine services have been held alternately by
the clergymen residing in the village, and have
been attended by all connected with the school,
and by those in the vicinity. The discourse is
especially adapted to the wants'of the children.
Allure required to repair to theiehapel,Sunday
morning, where an hour is spent in preparing
for the Sabbath school, which occurs in the
afternoon.- • International "lesson-leaves" are
furnished to all. :Two hundred volumes were
bought'for the Sabbath school library, to re.
place those that have been worn out by con-
Aant use.
"Could time members of the ' Legislature see
the avidity' with which the books'are.read,they
would add to the generosity of the. State . by
placing* a library, adapted to 'the Wants of
youth, at the disposal of every orphan selinol
