Some persons are of opinion that not a whisper should be heard in school at any time. except when the classes are engaged in their recitatione before the teacher. But in a prosperous and diligent school, where it variety of branches is taught in one room, end where the pupils are of nearly all ages, this is impcuibls. where there is much business, there must necessarily be some bustle. Yet the humming murmur of indus- try, is widely diflhrent from the tumultuous uproar of confusion arid disorder. The former may be compared to the low and almost soothing buzz of a properly working and well oiled system ofniachisery, whicb'is neither disagreeable nor distracting; but the latter to the stunning clnng of violence and ruin, which both bswildcrs and disturbs. ‘ '1') O ‘NOVA. 3.

It is said that in the United Smtes thirty thousand persons. annually, died through intemperance.

Many die from their influence who were never accounted irrtemperatc in the common sense of the word. The fatal isou is imperceptibly preyin upon their vitals until death is the incvita _le result. It happens, however, that the lives of the innocent are sacrificed to the drunkenness of others. We select one illus- tration.
