Wiliiams paid our academy an in
fer mid visit yesterday, accompmiicd
by Mr. I.a’I’astc, who represents a
northern publishing lirmsc. The
latter gentleman, in a short speech,
grivc our youth a piece of good ad
vice, and finished by complimenting
them highly on their attention while
being addressed. Mr. Crenshaw,
our efllcienl principal, tenders thanks
to Air. Williams and Air. La'I’aste,
thus publicly, for the kind words of
encouragement spoken to him and
bis students. Every reader has board
of the “teacher's pet” and wlio, by
the by, is usually the best student in
school, and hated like Mordocai the
Jew, for his goodness, but we arc
striving bard to become the commis
sioner’s pet. What other schools in
Heiiion will compete for so valuable
a prize?
We want to inaugurate a fourth
party in Bvrtlpn—the party of inter
nal improvement. Already have we
worn our six league boots on the
home stretch, now lot, uh pull on the
seven league boots and succeed.
First give us free schools. Give
us teachers who tiro not bound to
truckle to a large patronage for a
competent salary. Then wc shall
hear loss of partial teachers and easy
teachers, but, the servant, of the coun
ty will liu aide to govern liiii school
Iiii it ought to bo without pondering
to the t astes of a rlo?.CU people who
send to school more to get their share
of the public money than to have
them educated.
We have a good school in (’ceil.
.Students may here lie prepared for
tho sdpliomoi'c class, and as we have
a lieillthy town and good society why

Obituary,
“I want to go."
This short suntoiteo was the last
one UUCIrod by little Henry Levitt,
that dutiful iittlo son of Mr. ami
Mrs. B. P. I.ovitt, whose death wits
mentioned in die (Lvatm-u two
weeks ago.
Henry was in his eleventh year
and, though young as ho was, had
lived long enough to learn that there
was trite pjuitstlrn in doing good
Few hoys, of Henry's age, placed a
higher estimate than hu did on
obedience anil parents’ love,, Never
did his gentle face shine hijghtut, or
his little heart appear iiv.ire content-
i d, than when he «a>; fulfilling some
mission of ob..'di*:'iivvi‘ia>- his parents,
was a good-hoy; none of his school
mates or other associates could say
otherwise;, no one who knew him,
the. young or Lite old, who did not
love him,
How strange it is lo lecblo man,
how bard it is for hint to understand
why it is that the hopes of- fond par
ents should ho thus blasted ! We
know that death rides upon every
passing breeze, and lurks in every
(lower, but just why tho (lower of
the family should lie taken our vision
is loo dim to seo 1 Wc learn from
His Word that when God Conjes lo
gather up IJis jewels lie always
takes tho brightest and host first.
Doubtless dear little Henry, though
suffering intensely, was able to look
beyond his. pains and long to fly
away.
Henry had always manifested a
very strong lovo for his parents ami, if
there was a thorn in his dying pillow
it was the thought of leaving them;
bill when his departure was near at
hand he could raise his arms, weak
and trembling as they w.ire, placo
them around his mother's neck (as if
to dry her tears) and say, “I want to
go.” What a grand sentence! What
a noble utterance was little Henry’s
last! 11c died like hu lived—in tho
delight of obedience, When he
came lo tho dark and surging waters
of tho Jordan of death and he was
called upon to bill adieu to those
whom ho knew and loved, little Hen
ry could rise superior to these things
and witli his last breath exclaimed:
“I want to go.” This is a victory,
indeed.
Let tis nil, young and old, learn a
lesson from this noble hoy. Only
elven years whh lie spared to dwell
among us; yet, short ns that seems, it
was long enough for him to tench us
bow to live—aye, more, to show ns
lip tv to die.
Grieve not, parents, for your dar
ling son; the plnue which Christ went
to prepare ,wivs ready to receive him;
his mniinion was completed and ready
for its occupant, Little Henry did
not cross the eolu stream of death
alone, for Chfist said “If I go and
prepare n place for you i will come
again and receive you unto myself
l,lint where I am there ye may ho
also." No wonder ho could say “I
want to go.”
