We may suppose the trastees are politdy som maoded to famish a new Khool. â€" In view of the prospeativs **'**•" they hesitate to do so bat ths threat of with drawal of Govenment supp ot t is a very effective weapon iraeo properly handled. Trastees may wri^le for a time, bat in doe ooorse they snoeomb, and the taxpayer is saddled ^th the expense of a new building, which in reahty may not be reqaired. If it was allowable, or if it was the law that children of tender years should only attend sebool for three hoars daUy, then one half, as might be arran^isd, ooold aitaod in tha ferenooa tk» other half in the alterooon â€" mneh ta the comfort of the teacher â€" mach to the benefit of children, and much to the relief of the taxpayer. I understand that in some towns and cities, certain schools, by special permission, have their yoanger pupils on half time something in this way â€" one half attending from 9 to 10:80 o'clock a.m.; and from 1 to 2:80 o'clock p.m. The other half from 10;S0 to IS o'clock a. m. and 2:30 to 4 p. m. This, of course, nee cessitates the attendance of all the pupils part of the forenoon and part of the afternoon, and may suit very well in cities or t^wns but in rural sec- tions such as we have for the most part in this quarter, it will be easily seen that the half time sjwtem arraug ed so, that one half the younger cbildreu attend three hoars in the foreuoon, and the other half three hours in the atteruoon, would suit best, from the fact that many of the pupils have to walk to school say one, two, or even three miles. In this way the school that would be over crowded with 70, 80, or 90 pupils, would have abundant accomodation for half that number. The new building would not be required, tho ttacber could teach much more cf- fectualy, and the tax-payer would re- joice. There is much to be said in every way in favor of the scheme, but I will not at present seek to tres- pass further on your space. Yours truly, RoBxaT BoBEsrsoN.

I^oTiCE. â€" We wisli it disinctlf understood, that we do not hold onrsclrcs reponsible for tlic opiciuus expressed by our corrtsspoddeDts. To tho Editor of the Sta;da«p. Sir, â€" We have had a good deal of bonus for some weeks back aud al- though the discussion of tlio question ig far from being exliaustcd, we have to tliauk an intelligent and far seeing council with afforduig us plenty of tim* in the future to lay line upon line, and precept upon precept in re- gard to its advisibility. In the meantime, a little variety may not be out of place. UnueccssniT taxation i.-; not a desirable thing, and is by all mcaiis to be avoided, while at tho same time a "penny wise and pound foolish," policy inny bo equally obnoxious. OccaBious will arise wheu an extra tax will pay all parties con- cerned. At other limes, the necessity of extra tnx.^tiou may bo inccured wiiich proves of no geueial benefit, and is only so much public money wasted. This may be the CAse at times iu some of our school scetions under onr present system. A school house gets too small for the children attending, aud while iho school may be sufiicient every other way but that of size, yet a new school room must be built so that all tho childdrec, large and small, must be accommo- dated for six hours daily. While we have compulsory education thus far. To tb* Editor of the Bta.hdabd. Sir, â€" I am a farmer, a resident near Fiesherttou for the past nine- teen years and have hewed oat a home for myself from the woods. I claim we farmers know, or ought to ku-jw, the benefits ansiug from the iutreduction ol the railroad. The wealth and improvements of this part must, in a measure, be attributed to the industry of tho people, but at least one half must bo credited to the rail- road. When we visit Flesherton and Markdale, aud see the amonnt of money daily paid out for sheep, cattle and farm produce, certainly we must say the railroad has brought in indus- try, "wealth and civiliiation. Sir, we Know the iron rails on the Toronto, Grey and Bruce are getting pretty well worn out, and the cattle guards, bridges and other structures are becoming rotten. These things require to be renewed with more sub- stantial material. The Directors say they have not the means to make these improvements, neither are they willing to do so without assistanee from the municipalities interested. â€" The amount asked from Artomesia is not large, and many of us farmers think by helping to improve the road we are really helping ourselves. Sir, allusion was made a week or two since to the 70 who signed the petition to submit the By-law, aud that they lived in the upper Ward towards Markdale. I should say the farmers in that Ward view things in their tme light, vis.: by helping to improve the read, that while it takes four cents out of one pocket it will put eight cents in the other. Some of the knowing men about Flesherton advise the fai mere to yote down the By-law, telling them that if carried it will double their taxes aud also farther state they have no faith in the Company, hence their opposition to tho measure. â€" Your correspondent of two weeks ago stated th-'.t he had not lived m Canada for forty years and not know wheu a coon was treed, yet he cannot see the advantage arrising from the change ofgaage. I should say such men ought to get a free ride to-morrow to Toronto, and see the cars at the Great Western and Grand Trunk depots, and see the number of American cars that are there. They cau easily be detected from the' Canadian cars by their color and the large lettering on them. These roads are of the stand- ard gauge, hence the interchange of cars. Sir, I am of the opinion that, wore our road of the standard gauge at the present moment, we would have seen, for some weeks past, empty cars come all the way fron: Albany and Oswego to Flesherton and Markdale stations, to be loaded with barley aud forwarded to its destination. We should also have cars belonging to the Grand Trunk to be loaded with wiieat aud peas aud sent right through to Montreal, where peas realize 90 cents per bushel. To say that the farmers would not be benefitted by way ernaoe is very likaly the proper tarm aftar all, and it is probable thaf !.°?i:t*'li!°- ".!i^J*^?M^l?^*! i- ^.""^^e spectacles, and takes a squint simply utter bosh. Not wishing to trespass to much on your space I will close, but will return to the subject again. With thanks for yoor kind- that children arrived at a certain age ness, I am yours, Ac., A Fabmsx. must b** sent to school for at least a stated period, we have nothing -to compel parents to keep their children at home until they arrive at years sUiBcicut to know how to behave themselves, aud to learn their little lessons with some measure of iutelli- gence. Oa the contrary, we have parents, especially about villages, so keen to get tlteir little ones out of theii way that they paok thein off to school at an ago wheu they are only a nuisance to their teacher and school mates, without benefitting themselves The long suffering teacher belcg made a sort of Lursecy maid to those pre cocious infants, and their worse than sdfish parents. This is one way in. which school room accomodation may be and often is unuicoc^isarilv impaired. Another aud mere effociual wa^- i the foolieh eystemof six hours daily s^' To the Editor of the Staxdako. Sm, â€" The great Chemical Labrato- ry at Flesherton is once more in fall blast. Drastic dosea of Paregoric are being componnded. Somehow or other they don't produce the etfact de- sired. Perha^is the reason is that they sre not properly administered. The Doctor has got doctored lately, apd the best (^ it is tlia thing has been done entirely with his own physic â€" material furnished solely in his own letters. There has been no need to follow his example to go oatside of this correspondence, sjid rake in the mud far staff to make a concootien. He wmee and grinaoes Uke a whip- ped car, howls aboat maltraatmant, and don't seem to enjoy the working of of his own physic at all, whaa it a»mptm»iob»*ffti»ii» propria ptr- cestor, h«, irlisB Bhrist«â€"d, i^onld re- ottve the appeUatiob of Bobinaon. Thus his fall dasignation wonld be Bobinson Crasoe, and aa W fi i psr s to hava a weekneas for a handle nobo- dy will much object to his affixing the Dr., especially seeing tiiat he Jiim- self is evioiently self-conscious that a little maretricioas dignity is aeeessa- 17 ia his own case. The only draw- iMck to this happy coincidence of names is, that we always associite the idea of Crusoe with his man Fiiday. Bat there is tima enough yet. -« Cra- soe lived quie a while before he tmnd Friday, and doubtlcM Dr. Bobinson Crnsoa will, in da* tim*. prodocs the reqoiaiia shadow. 8«ma people thought that Friday Lad appeared • few weeks ago, bot it most have been a mistake, as the bellowa appears te have barst. I'he poerilities of the Doctor are amusing, if they are not edifying. Last week be is at his old school-boy bosiaess of makine butlc8 of hb own concoction. He pricks them, and lo they burst. Wc can imagine him iu the depths of his great Labratory shouting, "Hurrah t for Dr. Crusoe." I never referred spe- cially to grading, knowing that the read was already graded, lly refer- ence was to the general work required to complete the line as a broad gauge road. He nays "the greater part of the exi)enditure will be performed by skilled railroad hands," atjd be "don't suppose that §106 would be spent in AritemMia-" I convicted tiw Doctor sometime ago of wilful misleading tlie farmers in the matter of the box cars. I charge him naw with either wilful misrepresentation or gross ig- noranse in the matter of the expendi- ture. Considerable over two thou- sand ties are required to each mile of road. {There are some ten miles with- in Artemesia. It is a well known fact, that a large part of the coantry through which the line runs eannot supply timber for ties, consequently Artemesia, or any other township pos- sessed of the requisite timber, would have the opportunity of supplying tnree times the amount of ties than that required for local use. Allowing for say a fourth of the ties being late- ly renewed, here is at once more than half the bonus. Agaiu, there arc cedar posts required in large quanti- ties for snow and other fences. Then, if the road is to be wiaened aud com- pleted, there is the |iroper ballasting of the ror,d to be done. Altogether the work required would comprehend at least a foil winter aud summer's work for a la ge number of hands, aud fully bear^ out my contention, that employment could bo afforded to all the young men who have been re- cently flocking to the Slates from this quarter. The Dr. says, "a R. R, might pass through the most careful- ly drawn lease." Does it not strike him that a B. B. as owner as well as a leaseholder, might, on the same grounds, as easily pass through the most carefully drawn conditions. â€" Just as I said at the outset of this cor- respondence, the Reeve of Artemesia seems to have no faith in anything or anybody. Then he says, "tho road can help iUelf." Some weeks ago I controverted some of the Doctor s fig- ures as to the Company being able to do the work themselves, and proved bis contentions to be (in his own euphonious language) a baseless rition. But what is the use so far as he is concerned, of overturning anything be says or does That the road is not ablo to help itself te at once w ider. the guage wi'hout assistanco, is what is generally believed. That it is evi?u able to help itself to keep tlie road running in its present condition, seems doubtfnl. But allowing, for argument sake, tliat it is able of itself to do the latter; admitting that it can carry on at ail it may ultimately, af ter a considerable lapse of timo and after much struggling, patcliiug and fixing, emerge as a broad gauge still I contend, on reasons previously giv en, and others equally sound, that it would pay us now, aud pay us well, to assist the Company to at o»fe put the road in thorough order, and have done with the discredit, inconvenience and loss pertaining all round to the present sUte of matters. The D.jc- tor seems to be quite puzzled about principle of common justice. NotwitL- standing that he has been viewing me an lit in "spectacles an eyery other possible form," he has not yet aariv- edat its proper anderstaading. A spur to Flesherton, or a deflection of the road to somewhere near the re- nowned Labratory, would uo doubt be common justice in his estimation. A bonus for this purpose would have a greatmany sound reasons to sappert It no donbt! aud although ordinary people like myself might ventnrs to think it uncommon justice, the spec- tacles would be turned uiion us, and wo wauld be told tliat evcrythiug be- sides the spur or deflection was mere- ly "a side issue to divert attention " Just imagiue the duck in spectacles What a divertmg spectacle Q jack ^T ' f.® congratulates himself on his noUble device of covering up the box cars, and having now|ota Urge quantity of ties, posts and bal- ?on«S?'^^'*?' *^"' l^e' '"surely dons the spectacles, and tak»( through "every possible form' of mud at_ tne |reat principle of common in,.
