_MISCELLANY.
SCHOOL KEEPING IN ILLINOIS.
Perhaps some of the readers of these me
moirs will be interested with notes of a winter
In Illinois, which was spent in keeping school. :
It was indeed a queer occupation for me, 1
who knew about as much of chemistry and
the rule of three, as an enchanted jackass of
stave in music. Blit finding an opening, I
pitched into it, and put on the professional airs
usually assumed by the peripatetic flat-heads
of the birch.
Many were the colloquies, preliminary to
the opening. I sat behind a table, in a small i
log cabin; when—rap. rap. rap!
“Come in.” Enter a lone-nosed female,
shrewishly dressed, followed by her young 'uns.
Her ugly features relaxed into a smile, on
presenting her responsibilities, whom she com
mended to my distinguished consideration, in
a 8|>eccli, thus:
“You see, sir, the importance of teaching the
young idea to shoot right, in such dear jewels
as I bring you. None of your other scholars
will lie as nice and as knowing as these. My
childreu have a superior instinct of moral econ
omy—they are free from the outlandish awk
wardness of my neighbor’s children; and as
they are destined for a higher sphere of action, .
I expect you will instruct them by themselves, j
and give them the !>est seats.”
“Madam,” I replied, “your good sense meets
my devoted approbation. I see what you are,
mid your children too. You do well to entrust
them to my Instruction. I have travelled in
Arabia, where every goose believes its own
eggs to be the whitest, and loudly cackles ;
thereat. It shall be my aim to initiate your
childreu Into the manners, mysteries and cus
toms of that country, which will enable them i
to appear aristocratic and classic, even in that j
humble shanty where they were born. Can |
you lend ine twenty dollars to buy the hiero
glyphics?1'
"No. good sir; but when our hog9 are in, |
I'll turn you over a dozen.”
“That will do, madam.” Exit. Now enter
three strapping rosy-lipped damsels, at the first
tight of whom, my inherent bashfulness caus
ed me to blush to the eyes.
“Are you the schoolmaster?”
“I expect to be, may it please you, ladies—
take seats.”
“What can you teach ?”
“Oh, almost anything. Trigonometry, phi- !
lologv, martyrology, soliloquy, birch hiero
glyphics, and all other abslrusu branches of
knowledge.”
“We will attend, sir, with a view of finishing
our education this winter, in anticipation of
becoming teachers ourselves. You seem to
know ot more new things than any other
schoolmaster we ever heard of. Can’t you
Visit us ?”
“Yes, ye9, yes! At your service, ladies. ,
Tour appreciative faculties attract my admi
ration. As my triend Hamlet, the Dane, re
marked, "There are more things in heaven
and earth, than are dreamed of in your phil
osophy.” Excuse my cordiality, and consider
me not only as a teacher, but as a FK1EXD.”
“Yes sir,” said the oldest.
“Yes sir,” spoke the second.
“Yes sir-EEl” exclaimed the third, eliciting
• disdainful glances from the other two.
From that day forward, I was the monitor,
oracle, and grand tama of the district.
To be sure my method of teaching was rather
out of the usual course; I chatted with the
girls, frowned upon the boys, dodged their
hard questionsas best I could, always contrast
ing our national characteristics with those of
the Chiuese and Turks, and consuming the
time with varities of other entertainments.
The scholars were the most promiscuous
collection of brother and sisterhood that you
ever saw, 1 know. One was an old coon killer,
Ol 48 years! who came, as he said, “to learn
to make Ugures and accounts.” He could
neither read nor write, and was, just the ticket
for me. I had one pupil who determined to
study Greek and Hebrew, preparatory to a
collegiate course. It was rich to hear him re
cite, and my lectures on the beauties of the
Hebrew especially. Many a time my sides vi
brated with convulsions. I advised him to
yell at the top of his voice, w hich he did iu a
way that made the crows anxious.
My discipline was unsystematic and kind, at
first. 1 supposed that by coaxiug and indiffer
ence I could make ull love and respect me.
This was a mistake. Every son and daughter
of them, ungrateful as death, began to disre
gard and mock at my wishes. Daily they be
came more bold, and* played the most excru
ciating tricks. One bouncing lass secretly
clipped my suspenders with her scissors, and
while attentively walking to and fro, judge of
my astouishmen*. and mortification on discov- ;
ering the result. I made a pithy speech on the
oacas’on. and at the conclusion of it, my He
brew pupil threw a dictionary at my head.
This changed my method of instruction. Be
ing the possessor of Herculean strength, when
roused to anger, I sprung upon him like a ti
ger. It was a rude battle, hut I conquered aud
exterminated him from that hall of knowledge.
Alter this time I trusted more to the agency
of birch, than words of admonition, and got
along better. My advice to the whole school
teaching fraternity, is. never to invent a system
of discipline by any other method. The larger
the girls are. the more they need whipping; lor
it is a well attested fact, that these angels in
childhood grow uglier than Jezebel when they ;
get past the age of twelve. If ever I try
school keeping in future, the most vigorous
severity shall be made manifest in the discipline
of all rosy faced, grown up girls. My wisdom
has been drawn from sad and trying exper
ience. They not only are capable of breaking
oue’s heart but his good name also.
A Bold Soldier Boy.—The correspond- j
•nt of the Boston Transcript tells the follow- ;
lng about "Joe Parsons, of Baltimore, a
wounded soldier found in one of the hospitals: '
Joe enlisted iu the 1st Maryland regiment,
and was plainly a “rough” originally. As we
pa-sed along the hall we first saw him
crouched nearanopen window, lustily singing,
“I'm a Isold soldier boy ;”and observing the broad
bandage over his eyes, I said, “What’s your ,
name, my good fellow?”
“Joe, sir,” he answered, “Joe Parsons.”
“And what is the matter with you?”
“Blind, sir.—blind as a bat.”
“In battle?”
UtT _ . 1 _ _.1 . -

one clip.”
Poor Joe whs In the front at Anti“tam creek,
and a Minle ball had passed directly through
his eyes, across his lace, destroying his sight
forever. He was but twenty years old; but
he was as happy as a lark!
"It is dreadful,” I said.
“I'm very thankful I’m alive, sir. It might
ha’ been worse, yer see,” he continued. And
then he told us hiis story.
“I was hit,” he said, "and It knocked me
down. I lay there all night, and next day the
fight was renewed. I could stan the pain, yer
aee, but the balls was flyin’ all round, and I
wanted to get away, I couldn’t see nothin',
so I waited and listened; and at last I heard
a feller groanin’ beyond me. ‘Hello!' says I.
‘Hello, yourself,’ says he. ‘Who be yer?’ says
I—‘a rebel ?’ ‘You're a Yankee,’ says he. ‘So
I am,’says I; ‘What’s the matter with you?'
‘My leg's smashed,’ says he. “Can't yer
walk?’ ‘No.’ ‘Can yer see?' ‘Yes.’ ‘Well,’
says I. ‘you're a d—d rebel, but will you do
me a little faeorf” *1 will,’says be, ’ef I ken.’
Then I says, ‘Well, ole butternut, I can’t see
nothin.’ My eyes is knocked out; but I ken
walk. Come over yere. Let’s get out o’this.
You pint' the way, an’ I’ll tote yer off the
field, on my back.’ ‘Bully for you,* says lie.—
And so we managed to git together. We
shook hands on it. I took a w ink outen his
canteen, and he got on to my shoulders. Ldid
the walkin’ for both, an’ he did the navigatin.’
An’ ef he didn’t make me carry him straight
into a rebel Colonel’s tent, a mile away, I’m a
liar! Hows'ever, the Colonel came up, an’
says he, ‘ Whar d'yer come from ? who be yer ?'
I told him. He said I was done fer, and
couldn't do no more shoot’n ; and lie sent me
over to our lines. So. alter three days I came
down here with the wounded boys, where we
are doin’ pretty well, all tilings considered.
"But you will never see the light again, my
poor fellow,” I suggested, sympathetically.
“That’s so,” lie answered, glibly; “but I can't !
help it, you notice. I did my dooty—got shot,
pop in the eye—an’ that’s iny misfort'n, not
my fault.—as the old man said of his blind
hoss. But—
‘I’m a bold soldier boy,’ “ .
ha continued, cheerily renewing his song; and '
we left him in his singular merriment. Poor,
sightless, unlucky, but stout-hearted Joe Par

A Remarkable Case of a boy who was cured by
DR. II. J. BOYNTON,
Of Scrofulous Ophthalmia, as the following fkets will
show:
^m^'<l,'OH a long time the boy’s eye-lids had
been entirely closed. His ease was consid
ffyj^-ered almost hopeless. The boy was put un
dor the care of 4)r IV ami after great pa
tience and perseverance, with hi# elect ricai treatment
and with other curatives, he was able to lift hi# eye
lids, when* it wa# discovered that a false membrane
had formed and covered the entire eyes. Thi# was
removed by Dr. Boynton, and the boy’s eye-#igbt is
now entirelv restored, and his eyes stronger than ev
er before. This should be known to all persons who
are similarly afflicted. Although 1 understand that
the Doctor ha# tor many years, in his operations on
these delicate organs—the eye and ear.met with em
inent success, he has not deemed it necessary to keep
blaring before the public Ids surgical skill in this par
ticular part of his profession, but has been silently
performing cures, many of them of a remarkable
character. ’
BT" Certificates from numerous of his patients
will testify to his successful opeiatiomq all of which
may be seen at his office.
