The Atheneiim was crowdi.nl lat night by a tine audience to lUton to the lecture of Mr--. Martin in reply to Mr. Ohorly. Tho exercises were opened by Mrs. Can dee, who read an appropriate selection. The lecture was ilriely read by Mlss Thompson, an unfortunate defect of vi sion in tho author preventing her Ironi reading It her-elf. The lecture was a fine literary production, abounding in humorous sallies and strong arguments. It was listened to witli marked attention and was loudly applauded. Impro il Ilaml-Ciirl.

In a recent Issue of the Hi'i.lctin, we copied an article from the St. Louis Vtmocmt, giving thu particulars of tho release ot a man named .T. M. Gay, from tho Illinois Stato penitentiary, who had been Incarcerated lor tho murder ot a gentleman named Farley. The article stated that Gay had always been a quiet and peaceable man up to tho time of his trouble with Farley, who provoked liliu to the deed. Since the publication ol tho item, however, we have been Informed by a well-known gentleman of this city, who is acquainted with tho particulars of the atl'alr, that Gay Is a bad man, and that ho, (Gay) went to tho house, of Mr. Farley, and called him out, and shot him in tho dooryard without any provocation what ever. Our Informant also tells us that Farley Is not tho only man whom Gay has shot at In his lifetime, lu Pulaski, but tlmt ho missed his aim on tho first at tempt, nnd adds: "It would have been better for tho community If he had not been relcasciL" Tim llcrirci-a.

Tho programme was one of unusual Interest, and held thu closest atU-nt Ion of ono of the best audiences that ever assembled In. tills city. Tho performances of tho sev eral nrt!t, both ladles and gentlemen, excelled, If possible, their eilbrts on former occasions. Thu bell ringing was excellent, and tho solo, by Miss Anna Merger. was never surpassed by any artifct In this city. She was repeatedly npplattdcd. The character songs, by Mr. McKee, were really praiseworthy, and he was popular with all. Tils "Tooralooralle" will not soon be forgotten. Tho bell duet, by Miss Henrietta and Mr. Henry Herger, and tho character sketches by LeOrand, received meritorious applause. Mr. Wil liams, with Ids liarmonlcoii, brought down tho house.

A I'lensniit I'nrly. Knnoit Hci.lktin : A very pleasant gathering of young folks mot at the resi dence of Mr. tireely, last Friday evening, March Jith. It was Intended as a surprise parly for Master Harry, but some little bird li;id whl"pcred In his ear ot what bo might expect, so that ho was not so much surprised us pleated to meet his young friend'. Invitations had been Issued to about fifteen couples, but the evening being stormy, not so many arrived. Of course dancing was tho principal feature of tho entertainment, but games and other amusements were provided for those who did not trip the light fantastic toe. Miss Annie Alvord played some very sweet pieces on the piano. A very elegant ta ble was spread icecream, delicious cake of different varieties, oranges, apples and choice confections. After full Justice had been done, dancing wiii again re sumed, and kept up until a late hour. Mr. and Mrs. Greeley were untiring in their eilbrts to make everything pass oil pleasantly, and with due appreciation ot the ph-a-itrc allbrded, thu young ladles and gentlemen desire this communica tion in-erted in your very valuable pa per. Kesnectfully, M. Tile School Htli'sllon. The controversy which ha been going on through thoseveralnewspaiiersof this city, between Mrs. P. A. Taylor, County School Superintendent of Alexander county, and Mr. M. It. Hnrrell, editor of the Cairo Gazdte, has given rise to a good denl of talk in papers outside ol tills city, of which the St. Louis Globe is one. In giving it opinion of the matter, that journal says: "At the hist election In Illinois. Mrs. P. A. laybrwas eho-eii County Suioriii tondeut of Schools lor the county of Alex ander. The office ought to Iks one of great honor, as thecmolumcnt are small, lind the duties aro multifarious. As tho pay has been tlxed by the Legislature at t-t'for every "visiting day" aclu illy em ployed, and as tho county court has llxed the nuinlx-r of visiting days at the figures 123, Mrs. Taylor's reiiuineraliouamoiints to all of $300 per annum, lu consideration of this sum she I not only obliged to "put in" the 123 days, above alluded to.hi visiting and supervising tho schools ot tho county, but has iiianv other duties to perform, some of which aro quite Important, and all of which are onerous. Shi; is also held re-pou.sible for considerable amounts of nionev, as well a for the sutllelency of the bonds of all the township treasurer-, ami is compelled to give a bond for the faithful performance of her duties. It will be icrei'lved that the salary is entiri Iv out of proportion to the service? re quired. It Is so small that a man would ! tillable to live upon It. The men, therefore, do not attempt to live upon It, but seek other sources of Hibslstcncc. It is highly pro bable that there is not a County Superin tendent of Schools in the State ol Illinois who does not eke out his income by some other employ ment, unle-s he happens to pos'oss an In dependent fortune, and wo believe that the practice was never objected to. Hut it Is quite otherwi-e with a woman. Al though she may havo a dependent family as appears to uo mo cau witu .Mrs. Tavlor ho Is expected to subject her self and little ones ou what would starve a man. Thus, when it becomes known that this lady expects to add to her in come by teaching in a parish school, a Cairo newspaper raise a clamor about It. and declares that -he must either resign her olllce, or confine her labor-to its du ties alone. Mrs. Taylordoes not appearto be greatly dl-coneerted bythisattaek.aud mildly refers to the fact that previous su perintendent, who happen to have been men, have all combined other business duties. She i ot the onlnion that the sauce with which the gander Is served mi should bo considered a sulliclent relish for the goose, and herein she should he supported by all fair-nimded people."
