For the Journal . SCHOOL HOOKS. Fairyiew, Iq.I., Feb. 1 ('.".

It 13 not the intention, on my part, I to engage in a "book war," or to challenge any person to a literary combat with myself. When I say 'book war," I have special reference to the excitement now prevailing 1 f nrnifum nn) it trwn Ivrt !) i ctli TT" it I 11 a in.-,. regaru 10 me fcuiyeet 01 uunuuuj books in the schools of Randolph i

now muse, 101 ineneneuioi common ... .v. ..,.... )r primary schools, I do not wish to ;onvey the idea that AVillson's Reador com ers are an inferior series of Read ers. For advanced classes, and those who have made themselves acquainted with science, and adopted science as a study, Willson's Third, Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Readers, of the common school and family scries, and Willsou's academic series, arc equal to any series of Readers w hich have yet made their appearance. Vet, that there is more science connected with AIcGuirey's Readers than with Willsou's is a preposterous idea, which will not bear a test. AYillsons Second and a portion of his Third Reader, of the common school series, imparts excellent moral instruction for every scholar, either old or young; while the remainder of the Third and the higher Readers, treat on natural historv, and manv things of a similar character, which, though thev contain valuable instruction, are better calculated for minds ! fully developed. Abide from all this, I agree with Samuel L. Rugg Superintendent of Public Instruction for this Stale when, in conversation with myself at Indianapolis, on last "Monday, he said that the patrons of the schools were the owners of the books, and Examiners had no authority to take books out of school. In "Notes and Suggestions, by Prof. Aides J. Fletcher, in regard to section thirtv-eight, of the Indiana school law, adopted March 1 1th, 18G1, Mr. Fletcher says with regard to the duty of Kxaminers: That part of the section whreh read 'they shall see to the introduction of the authorized text-books into their schools,' is no part of the law. It was most wisely stricken out by the Legislature, but in tiie carelessness of enrolling was left in." Mr. Fletcher further says, "The matter of text books, therefore, is a matter with which the FAaminer has nothing to do, other than to give such advice as he may deem best, always endeavoring to produce uniformity, as recommended by the Superintendent. It is earnestly hoped that no school olliceror teacher will, under any circumstances, become an agent for any publishing house.' 31 r. Fletcher also says, in regard to this matter, "The recommendation of the Superintendent is to carry simply the moral force of your respect for his judg ment."' These thoughts and opinions I give for what they may be worth; they may benefit some one. J. M. liONO. i;yi;s opf...'Our minister said in his sermon, last evening," said Mrs. Ueach, the wife of a prosperous wholesale dryooods merchant on Market street, as she dusted her mantel ornaments of porcelain and marble, on Monday morning, "that we who want to do good must be on the constant 'look out' for opportunities: that (Jod does not lind our work and brin it ready-fitted and prepared to our hand; but spreads the world before ns, and we are to walk through it as Christ and the Apostles did, with 'eves open,' looking for the sick and su tiering, the poor and the oppressed.

she heaped the soiled linen into the basket, "that you would get Tommy's aprons ready for me by Wednesday. We are going out of town, to remain ; "He was three last April, ma'am. "And Tom is four." mused the lady. "Look here, Mrs. Simms; ; won'tvou just open the lower drawer of that bureau, and Like out those! four green worsted dresses in the; en-nr r?

Do come and see us,' had it not struck her that Joseph's lace did not wear its usual happy expression. She paused, as the memory of last night's sermon llashed through her mind, ami asked, "Is any thing the matter with you, Joseph? You don't look as happy as you used to.' The boy looked up a moment, with a half doubting, half confiding expression, into the ladv's face: the j latter triumphed: "Mr. Anderson's moved out of town." he said, pushing i ' back his worn, but neatly brushed cap from his hair, "so I've lost my place: then little Mary's sick, and that makes it very bad just now." "So it does," answered Mrs. Ueach, her sympathies warmly enlisted. "But never mind, Joseph; I remember only night before last my brother said he would-want a new errand boy, in a few days, for his store, and he'd give a good one two dollars a week. Xow, I'll see him to-day, and get the situation for you. if you like." The boy's whole face brightened. "Oh! I shall be so glad of it, Mrs. lieach." "And see here, Joseph; I'm going to market, and perhaps we can lind something nice for little Alary." The lady remembered that Joseph's mother, though a poor seamstress, was a proud woman, and felt that this would be a delicate way of pre-1 senting her gift. So she found some delicious pears and grapes, and a nice chicken, to make some broth for Alary, whom, ashe learned, was ill with fever, before she proceeded to do her own marketing. IJut it was a pity that the lady did not see Joseph as he sprang into the chamber where little Alary lay on her bed, while her mother sat .tiehing busily in one corner, and! held up the chicken and the fruit, crying Good news! good news! I've got all these nice things for Alary, and a place at two dollars a week!' Oh! how little Mary's hot fingers closed over the bunches of white grapes, while the sewing dropped from her mother's lingers, as the tears did down her cheeks. It was evening, and Mrs. Beach sat in the library, absorbed in some new book, when she heard her hus band's step in the hall. Though

the mornin the afternoon day had gone down in a low, sullen, penetrating; rain. Now, Mrs. Ueach loved her husband with the love of a true wife, but he was not a particularly demonstrative man and the liit beauty and poetry of their married life f?ad settled down into a somewhat bare, every-day, matter-of-fact existence. But "her heart was warm to-night, warm with the pood deeds of the day, and remembering her resolution of the morning, she threw down her book, and ran down the stairs.

A French briir was rcturninir from Toulon to Havre with a rich eamo and numerous passengers. Off the coast of Bretagne it was overtaken by a sudden and violent storm. Capt. P , an experienced sailor, at once saw the danger which threat - ened the ship on such a roekv coast. and he gave orders to put out to sea; but the winds and waves drove the brig violently towards the shore, and, notwithstanding all the efforts of the crew, it continued to get nearer land. Among the most active on board in doing all that he could to help wa3 little Jacques, a lad twelve years old, who was serving as cabin boy in the vessel. At times, when he disaooeared for a. moment, behind the folds of the sail, the sailors thought he had fallen overboard; and j again, when a wave threw him down i on the deck, they looked around to! see if it had not carried away the poor boy with it; but Jacques was soon up again unhurt. "M v mother," said Im cm.linr t nnr.M '.rnlnr ttvu1.1 V,' ' ' be frightened enough if she had seen me iust now." His mother, who lived at Havre, was very poor and had a large fandIv. Jacques loved her tenderly, and he was enjoying the prospect of carrving to her his little treasure two liVe-franc pieces, which he had earn-1 eu as ins wages 0 1 a the voyage. ! The brig was beaten about 'a whole 1 day Ivy the storm, and, in spite of all the efforts of the crew, they could not steer clear of the rocks on the coast. By the gloom on the captain's brow it might be seen that he had little hope of saving the ship. All at once a violent shock was felt, accompanied by a horrible crash; j the vessel had struck on a rock. I
