Years ago in tho little villsgo of there wis an humble but neatly-kept cottage, whste an eld miner dwelt with his wife snd only child a son. And Aliok wss but a young boy when be RfOt descended into the mines with bis fstber. One evening, as the old miner was returning home from a neighboring vil lage, his attention was attracted by a little girl. She was weeping bitterly. A few bt oken, almost inarticulate words told that she had been deserted by bar mother. The child, weary and hungry, had cried itself to sleep, tod while aba was sleeping, the unatural parent had fotseken bar. The old man was touched by the in cident. Raising bcr tenderly in his srms, he wended his way homewsavJ. Entering tho cottage be placed the light burden in his wife's lap, saying : "God in His wisdom bss seen fit U choose our home from all other hemes in the villsgo to shelter this deserted child. KnowiuK vour kind heart, wife. e-w sj w r I did not fear lo bring the little one to aa you." The dame pressed tho good men's hand siTectionaUly i reply, and Amy for so the child wsa called was soon stated before a simple repast. AHck, on bia return from the psitah school, welcomed the little girl with ev ery expression of pleasure. Yoais passed away, and Amy's child hood days were spent. Without great claims to beauty, there was, nevertheless, a charm about her hich all recognised. The miner and bis wife were not sur prised when Aliek one dsy ssked them for their consent to mske Amy bis wife, and to this request they sccorded their hesrtfelt blessing.

In problem number 1 published last week we omitted to a tht white moves, PROBLEM 8, (Ry S. A. DeVauey. and mate in two dates for the speakership have been mntlo solely with a view to this ques tion. Ihero n another important question, however, which no party ran alford longer to ignore. It relates to tho reform ol the civil service. The Democrats conhl uot lo a wiser thing than to pass n law that no clerk shall be removed from n office in which ho has prove! himself houeet and competent. To enaet soon law would be right, a well as politic. 1 1 would make Democrats of a large numler of Govornment clerks, and of the friends of civil service reform everywhere. It would de prive their adversaries of their most telling taunt that all the Democrats want aro the spoils of office. a oood son,., I. norsc. I am in favor of one for Albany, a large one too, one arranged in anticipa tion of a big growth of our population. I like the way they da along the Union Pacific. They build s $10,000 or $15,- OOti school bouse, and then lay ant tbeir town, and booses sown swarm around it like flies around a sugar bowl ; and lo and behold tbe first thing they are aware of they have a large thriv ing city. The school boose did it. When a man with a family of children contemplates moving into a new cams try the first thing be asks is, what kind of a school have yon. Suppose Al bany was in the mind of the emigrant, f can imagine some sueh cob vernation as this enauing : "Well, bow are you fixed for school! "Ob, sbem, we havs same excellent teachers, but regular old sbeda for school house, benches worse than an inquisition torture box, rooms too small for dog kennels, snd no more chance to ventilate tbeta than a dungeon, I am sorry to tell you this, but ft is a fact." Whew, why in tb under doss' at your city build a new one. Certainly with a population of 2500 yon can af ford it V "Yes, but you see we are earned with a lot of old kickers, who are aur biggest property owners, witboot a child to their name, or the prospect of one, they seem to ears for nothing but tbeir ten per cent with as little offset in the wsy of taxes as possible, and as they have a little influence tbe result is tbst every effort to vote s new school building bas been defeated by that chronica." "Weil that is enough for me, I don't care to live in a place filled with men who do not work for its interest, and which cannot boast of a place fit to educate my children in." This is not n visionary picture, but illustrate truthfully tbe sentisaont of many immigrants on seeking a new home. They want to give their chil dren tbe advantages of a first-class ed ucatlon : if they can not write tbeir n name. Tbe denire to give il.nn an education whieh will give them a good position in tbe world, is in bora in tbem, and in going to a city like Al bany where it cost more to Hve, ubey expect something better than if thy sstefaw in a backwoods district. On sight, or a deactiption, of onr cramped np sffair is enough to discourage any one. It would be a grand thing if we only could make enraelvus realize the fsct that we must have a new school build ing. One is enongb. "Let tbe city soil the three buildings for fire v oed if for nothing else, and build one large structute in a central poattion, wnere there will be plenty of room, lots of - a - air, convenience, etc., and teen pat in enough teachers so that justice can be done to tbe pupils. No teacher living can take charge of seventy or eighty pupils and benefit them the way they should. Fifty at the moat is enough. These things should be taken into con sideration. Money spent towards educating the is like wheat sown in fertile ground. It brings forth tenfold. It so ridiculous to hear men oppose tbe expenditure of anything for a now school house and ti e next minute waste their money on Honor or tobacco. Yet in a month they will siend more fool iahly than their school tax would amount to in a year, 'Ob, consistency thou art butter at tffty cents a pound." Well, notwithstanding this opposi tion, we nre after a new school bouse, and can get it if we will only go to work and vote it. All lhat is necessary is n little hard work. Shall we attempt and see what we can accomplish. fate. The old eoUtfjo continued to be . 9 - - thought haun'.ed hy ghostly visiters, and bees use of this miperstitton none weuld occupy it.
