FRA DIAVOLO.
“Fra Diavolo,” that was the play,
And the night was a glorious night in May ;
Stars on her brow and bloom at her feet,
And the breath of their west-winds warm
and sweet;
That was without, within, the light
Os dancing eyes and jewels bright,
And radient faces proud and lair
Outshone the rays of the gaslight’s glare,
And a strange sweet perfume filled the air,
From the fragrant flowers I wore in my hair.
Well, there in a front row were we,
As fond and happy as lovers could be,
And on my libretto he wrote his n tine,
And, under it, “cherie je vous aime,”
And my brain went round with the mad
niug play
And the ’wildering joy of that night in
While the crimson glowed in my burning
cheek
As I looked a love I could not speak.
“Forever and ever f love of mine,
Forever and ever, I am thine.
The sun shall fade, and the stars shall wane
And my heart cry out for return in vain,
Yet, ever and ever, its troth shall be,
Beloved, plighted but to thee.”
These were the words of that night in May,
That were sa d in the pauses of that play;
These were the words that rang in my heart
And made themselves of my soul a part.
And I asked in the glow of the joyous hours,
“Was theteever on earth a love like ours?”
“Never, 0! queen of my heart,” he replied,
'‘Never, my beautiful spirit-bride,
Never a feeling so pure and true,
Never a woman so lovely as you,”
“Fra Diavolo,” 'hat was the play,
And th- night was a glorious night in May;
Three years ago—Oh, what an age it seems,
With its roseate hue of vanished drcams!
Three years ago! ah, the love has fled ;
The last read sp rk of its flame is dead,
And vainly we search each others face
For the olden charm and the olden grace;
And we think of the past with an icy chill
Which is very unlike the olden thrill
W hich shook our hearts that night in May,
When “Fra Diavolo” was the play;
We are so cold, the past is so dead,
And the last red glow of love has fled.
And we smile at the feeling that thrilled us
then,
When we it in other women and men;
And we sigh “eh bien ! they must one day
learn
How short a time love’s red tires burn.”
Ah • yes, we are older and wiser now,
Too wise for the follies of youth, I trow;
Yet, would to Heaven, that night in May
When “Fra Diavolo” was the play,
And on my libretto you wrote your name,
And under it, “cherie je vous aime,”
Might come aga : n, to fade no more,
Till I close my eyes on the earthly shore.

We believe in the co-education of the sexes; we limit their association • they meet
only io the recitation room, except in passing to and from the academy, and during the
suspension of regulations pertaining thereto. I heir association to this extent makes
them more attentive to pirsonal appearance, and more refined in speech. It gives boys
higher feelings of honor, for they dread the opinion of girls who scoff at meanness
littleness and profanity. It stimulates girls to greater mental effort, and makes them
more capable of thinking for themselves. It gives boys better ideas of true womanhood
It gives girls better ideas of true manhood. It elevates both, morally and intellectually.

From Gainesvilla Eagle, March 8, 1873.
There is nothing of more importance to
the youth of our countrv, than a sound
practical education. Indeed it is a mat
ter of first consideration, and in order
that the foundation for an education may
be laid in the shortest time and at the
leastexpense it is necessary to have teach
ers—those who, from experience, have
shown an aptness fur imparting instruc
tion. Such a teacher is the Principal of
the Norcross High School.
From tire Gwinnett Herald.
J. U. \ incent, Principal, is a ripe schol
