In the sixth annual report of the Massa.
chusetts Board of Health, Dr. Henry L.
Bowditch has‘ a valuable article upon inebri—
ate asylums. He urges their establishment
by the State as a. moral, sanitary and eco-
nomical measure, arguing that a large pro-
portion of the inmates of almshouses are
there, directly or indirectly, because of
drunkenness; that in such institutions they
are left virtually to themselves, no one striv-
ing to restore their self-respect and uplift
them to renewed manhood, and that the
same expenditure now so nearly wasted in
poor houses would, if devoted to the same
class in properly conducted asylums,be pro-
ductive .of a vast amount good. Dr.
Bowditch doesnot treat the ( runkard from
a sentimental standpoint. He regards drunk-
enness as a crime which should be severely
punished,and inveterate drunkards, in his
opinion, should be deprived oftheir civil
rights. He says, ‘tIthink that the law
should- allow any one to complain of the
habitual drunkard, and on sufficient proof
being given of the truth of the allegation be-
fore the proper court, said court should de-
clare civri rights to be held in abeyance
until a radical cure be affected. The best
interests of the State seem to me, even in
principle. not only to allow of this
procedure, but to absolutely require it as a
means of selfedef‘ence, if the re ublic is to
continue in a state of purity.
period will arrive when, to be drunk, even
in private, will be deemed a mis demeanor,
and to appear in public, in a state of intoxi-
cation, will justly be 'considered one of the
greatest of crimes against the good order of
the State.” A similar measure has been pro-
posed by a commission of the'French As-
sembly appointed to investigate the causes
of the increase of“ drunkards in France and
to suggest a remedy. As it is very evident
that public sentiment will not tolerate pro-
hibitory legislation, which is based on the
mistaken theory that drunkards are the ir-
responsible victims of liquor-dealers, it
might be well for our temperance friends
to take Dr. Bowditch’s suggestions into eon-
sideration.—Palladium.
“ Sponglng” on Newspapers.
Every man thinks a newspaper fair game.
if a society or any body of men get up a
concert or a ball or other form of entertain-
ment, the object of which is-to put money
in their pockets, or if the proceeds are to be
devoted to charitable purposes, to add to
their own glorification, they become very
indignant if the roprietors of a newspa-
per do not assist t ‘em by a series of gratui-
tous advertisements for several weeks be-
fore the event takes place. These gentlemen
should remembert that literary men in this-
practical age work for money as well as for
fame—rprincipally the former, however, and
the business manager of a‘newspapor, if he
wishes to keep on the safe side of the ledger,
conducts his charge on the same principle
as the head of any business establishment.
People who are getting up a ball would feel
chary of asking a present of a pair of gloves
from any merchant,'yet asking and expect-
ing,to receive a gratuitous advertisement is
a similar demand. The editor of the Marl-
boro (Mass) Journal states the case very
plainly when he informs his -readers that
“ We, 011g ago, adopted the plan of chat-gin
our regular reading notice price for all ed1-
torial announcements of entertainments to
which an admission fee is affixed. We
make no exception to thin-pie. ‘ the way
of news topics we freely and g1 piusert
sketches, of all entertainments after they
have become matters of gory. It is only
the preliminary work, lodk'iug to the draw;
log out of increased patrons from the
public, fo'r'which we expect ensation.”

The school Question.
Shall we have a High School at the
Center and South Normal].- or 0x12 in the
Over River District.
I think we Qould have a High School
at the Centre and one at South Normal/r for
the following reasons: ‘
lst. It is more convenient for the people
of the whole town. Here we have a town
of some 14,000 inhabitants, reaching from
north to south, :1 distance of about 14 miles.
A town large enough to supply scholars
sufficient to maintain two High Schools.
This town is shaped like an ellipse having
two foci, one at the Borough and the other
at the City. ,,Arottud each focus centers :1
large number of inhabitants who have
scholars to patronize 11 HIGH school. Now
the question is whether we break away
from these points of attraction and estab-
lish our High Schools at a point where
there are few scholars sufficiently advanced
to even enter a High School. .Can we with
propriety ask the people of South Norwalk
to send their children right away from their
fine buildin mirably suited for a high
'school, havi every convenience and plenty
of room to accommodate all the scholars
that will gather there for the neat! decade of
years. '
I maintain that the people of South Nor-
wulk should not oblige their children to go
one or two miles to school when they could
be so much better accommodated at their
own Union School within from 5 to 10
minutes of their own home. Now as to
distance it is found to be a fact that at least
one-half of the scholars who will attend a
High School now and hereafter, live next
‘or beyond the Union School building and
instead of being allowed to attend school
-at their own new commodious school build-‘
.ing'where they could be 'accommodatcd
with the very best of privileges and all the
modern improvements, they must pass by
and go over a mile further “and take up”
with accommodations such as were never
intended and never suited for High School
purposes. Will the intolligm: people of
South Norwalk, who wish to provide the
best of school privileges for their children,
submit to any such proposition as thats
Now what about the accommodations of
this part of the town the Borough. I am
informed on the best ofauthority, that there
are in the Center School 10-day nearly 40
scholars ready to enter a high school. In
point of fact, the Center isa high school at
the present time, for here are taught high
school studies that are not taught in any
other school in thiapart of the town. Such
as Astronomy, Geometry, Chemistry, Latin,
including Cicero, and Virgil and I under-
stand the principal has introduced the study
of Greek, and actually has some young
men fitting for Yale College, who are within
one year of entering. Here gentlemen you
already have a high school,nearly 20 in
Loomis‘s Geometry, 4111 book, the same
class finish Steele’s Astronomy this week,
and I call upon the committee who heard
these classes examined to vouch for their
attainments in these studies. These classes
wish to go on and finish a High School
course which they have. so well begun,
and they should be allowed to do in the
most convenient locality. The same is
true with the classes following them, and
the scholars throughout this north part of
the town. Now where do these scholars
live, almost two-thirds of them reside ABOVE
the Center School Building, so that in going
to the Over River School, these scholars
would actually pass the Center School;
Now is it right or expedient to compel
scholars to go a mile or more away from
their home so as to consolidate ,with the
South Norwalk scholars who are put to the
some inconvenience. The proposition as
far as convenience is concerned is absurd.
Some may say there are a large number of
scholars to accommodate in the Over River
District, but any one who is well ' acquaint-
~ed with that part of the town, knows there
are not one-half the number of scholars
fitted to enter a high school in that District
as there are either in the'Center District or
South Norwalk. It takes no argument at
all to show that the outstanding Districts
can be better accommodated with two
schools than one. '
My second and last point is the expense.
It will be no more expensive to carry out
this plan than the Over River plan. Why!
Because there must be amale teacher at
the head of these 3 schools at all events;
It has been tried in other places to have
a lady at the head of :1 Grammar school,
but it has with rare exceptions failed. You
will find all the Grammar'schools in New
Haven, Bridgeport, Norwich, New London,
in this state, also in towns and cities in
other states they have male teachers at the
head of the schools. ‘ It-will cost but little
more (if any) for assistant teachers in a
high school than in. any other. Now the
plan of putting the High School in the Over
River District will necessitate a new corps
of teachers for that school, as the present
corps have all they can do with their present
school, and certainly you cannot expect
those teachers to take care of their present
Grammar school and a High School also.
teachers to' take charge of said High School,
three or four men teachers at least, at an
carry out the other plan “viz," of making
the grade of scholarship higher in Union
School South Norwalk, and Center School
Norwnlk will require, but two extra lady
than $1,200,1‘or the Principals. A. G. F.
, The newspaper business is very exacting
on all connected with it, and the pay is com-
paratively small; the proprietors risk more
money for smaller profits, and the editors
and reporters work harder and cheaper than
the same number of men in any other pro-
fession requiring thegiven amount of intel-
ligence and draining and drudgery. The
life has its charms and its pleasant associa-
tion, scarcely known to the outside world.
But it has its earnest work and anxieties
and hours of exhaustion, which, likewise,
are not known to those who think the busi-
ness all fun.
The idea that newspaperdom is a charm-
ed circlc where the favored members live a
life of ease and free front care, and go to the
circus at night on a free ticket, and to the
springs on a free pass in summer, is an idea
which we desire to explode pathetically and
theoretically. Business is business, and the
one that succeeds is the one that is run on a
square business footing, the same as bank-
ing or building bridges, keepin a hotel or
running a livery stable—Mam]; iaAcaIanche
