A GOOD TIME TO TISIT SCHOOLS.
In our experience in the school room,
tmd asaociation w ith parents, we have
been met with many excuses for not
visit ing schools ; and among those most
-generally given, was the want of time.
This excuse, especially among the
fanners, is one which has considerable
weight, and we have always felt dis
posed to be charitable toward this class
- of parents relative to visiting schools.
Jjut tho l'cmg, tedious, and inclement
winter approaches ; the very season of
the year when our public schools are
ihe most extensively attended, or when
the greater nnraber of scholars attend.
Indeed, the winter season is the best
time for study, and improvement. The
farmer has performed the heaviest,
and tnost important work of the year,
and hence it is but right that he should
have relaxation from his arduous du
ties. But we most respectfully beg to
assure farmers and everybody else, that
the winter ' season is one of the best
times to visit the schools. The child
ren aro there, doing their best it may
be, to perform what they have been
told, was their duty. They may be at
schools, under , the care and guidance
of teachers, who, themselves need
teacfiers and ' masters. They may be
under the supervision of those who lit
nearly every particular, may be dis
qualified for the performance of the
duties of teachers.
Or, again; your children may be
there, cold and uncomfortable and it
may be forming a distaste for achool
and books, which, as is often the case,
may eventually become chronic, thus,
almost in infancy, blasting the hopes.
Which you, kind parent, may have
cherished in their behalf. Now the
long winter months are upon us; the
schools throughout the county, if not
already in session for the winter soon
will be. The farming implements are
laid aside for the winter, and the farm
ers generally speaking will enjoy a sea
son of relaxation. Then allow us to
.suggest the eminent propriety, of a
general visiting of schools alj over the
county. The time thus employed will
never be missed.
The encouragement thus given teach-
. crs and scholars will be great, and the
good thus accomplished in the cause of
education in general, and tho educa
tion of the yonng in particular, be so
great that no parent can fail in this
respct without being guilty of a non
performance of a most sacred and im
perative duty.
Let parents then not fail to visit
their children at school. Go and Le
como a living witness of your teacher's
Capacity, and of his earnestness in the
discharge of his duties. Come and be
an observer of your children's conduct,
deportment, and diligence while at
school.
THE CONCERT AT ROCK BLUFFS.
The concert given by Mrs. Drost for
the benefit of a School Library for the
Public School of Eock Bluffs on Satur
day, Nov. 15th, was a success.
Tne house was well filled and the
best of order prevailed. "We can not
in a short article do justice to each per
former, individually, but we must say
that all did well. The manner in
which each scholar performed, reflected
much credit on the teacher (Mrs.
Drost), for the very skillful manner in
which she had trained her class, In in
strumental music
"We were very agreeably struck with
the nonchalance exhibited by her pu
pils in playing before a large audience.
To play, or declaim before.an audi
ence without embarassment, especially,
by young performers, we regard as re
quiring a greater degree of self-reliance
than most of our young persons
possess. But Mrs. Drost seems to lftive
succeeded admirably, in training her
pupils to be self-reliant ; and this we
look upon as one of the most essential
parts of education.
The receipts from the concert will
be appropriated to the purpose of
founding a Library, and thus estab
lish a nucleus around which we trust
that many other donations will be col
lected. F. M . MacDonough, Esq., of the
Watchman, has the honor to be the
second donor of books tc the Libraryt
An old farmer named Ami, return-
nig from market a little boozy, stopped
for a; nap. Awakening .at nignt a little
15ewildered, he solioquized thus, "Am
I Ami or am I not Ami; If I am Ami,
then where am I; if I am not Ami,
then who in the deuce am I ?"
Mother. "Tommy r dear, there is
some nice castoroil with orange ice in
it." Doctor. "Now, remember, don't
give it all to Tommy leave some for
me." But Tommy, dear, was wide
awake, having had a touch of the cas
tor once before, and instantly replied,
"Doctor's such a nice man, ma, give it
all to him." Ma laughed, and Tommy
got better without the aid of any more
castor-oil and orange ice.

THE WEEELY SUN is too widely known to
require any extended recommendation : but
the reasons wliicli have already given it fit y
thousand subscribers, and which will, we hope,
Kive it many thousands more, are briefly aa
follows : . , ,
It is a first-rate newspaper. All the news of
the day will be found in it condensed when un
important, at full length when of moment, and
always presented iu a clear, intelligible, and in
teresting manner. . ., ,
It is a lirst-rate family paper, full of enter
taining and instructive reading of every kind,
but containing nothing that can offend the most
delicate and scrupulous taste.
It Ma first-rate story paper. The best tales
ani romances of current literature are carefully
selected and legibly printed in its pages.
It is a first-rate agricultural paper. The most
fresh and instructive articles on agricultural
topics regularly appear in this department.
It is an independent political paper, belong
ing to no party and wearing no collar. It figlit-s
for principle and the election of the best men
to office. It especially devotes its energies to
the exposure of the great corruptions that now
weaken and disgrace our country, and threaten
to undermine republican institutions altogether
It has no fear of knaves, and asks no favors
from their supporters.
It reports the fashions for tlio ladies and the
markets for the men, specially the cattle mar
kets, to which it pays particular attention.
Finally, it is the cheapest paper published.
One dollar a year will secure it for any subscri
ber. It is not necessary to get up a club in or
