If an ex change ooukl Uj made, however, I would secure the consent oi the mini mucui iuimuri8ui uui muau , to give our modest buildiDg for Oar Lady's Church. At one end stands the large statue oi our savionr, oy , the great Thorvaldsen, the Danish sculptor. Jesus stands with be I nignant conntenance, butoneshow j mg his burden of sorrow; and with extended arms and forward stp, j welcome all to the shelter of his ; embrace. Ontside the railing to i the chancel, on each side of the principal nave ol the church, st-anas six Apo6tie. also lnorvaiasens 1 i 1 ' work; each one an allegorical rrpre stnttive of the character or fate of the Apostle. The liotando, over the altar and niche wber stands the Christ, is decorated with a frew-i, prtwnting the history of Christ's sad walk to Golgotha. Many other remarkable works adorn this beantifnl lemple of (rod.

I find them simple, hearty, genial. Now I hear the ringing laugh of the giant Scotchman, Prin cipal ('amis; the genial greeting of Dr. Wilson, honored by Queen Victoria for g ,xd works; the sensi ble talk of the Lord Mayor of Lon don; the pleasant social converse of our own Prof. Schaff and Dr. Hoge. W e learn to appreciate worth and learning and to try to do what we can in lite. But for the music. I will nut attempt a description of singing and organ strains just now. If I just had Mr. K. Berry at my elbow, or my good friend, Mis-C K. Ives, I could tell you in style. But we were entertained with some i tine work and artistic in this line.

Boats and trains are moving in every direction, and with cheap fares, so the working world, and the pleasure seekers, all have ample opxrtunitis to accomplish duty, and to execute all desires for length ened joys in excursions, utc. These notes will give your read ers some idea ot affairs in this great city. As one walks along its prominent streets, as Bredgade, the display ot all kinds of goods, jew elry, photograpTis, terra cotta work, imitations of choice works of art, etc, tempt one to empty his purse and forget he needs bread and clothes, and means to get home again. I must say ligood bye" to Copenhagen at once, and start , home, before all funds fly away. Farewell, city of the Danes! May blessings from heaven attend you! L. C. Vas's. Nt MIU'.K THinTKI.N. Dk.AK .IiU'RN AI.: l'.ngland is a wonderful land ot enchantment. Shall I give an illustration 1 The morning i an exceptional one for London in my experience. A pleasantly checkered k., but no prospect for rain, as has been usual; plenty of smoke in the air, and thus some haziness as one looks to a distance. But dashing along the crowded streets in a cab, I reach P.iddington station. A lew years ago there was only a village m this busy and thronged section of Lon don. But I will not now touch on its marvelous giowth. Kiitering a train, stop; the Lngli.-h railroad is remarkable. The carriages are divided into compartments contain ing ten pas-en jers, and the seats run entirely across the car, just as in a hack; and we sit opposite to each other. The door-- are at the sides of the car.

But its attractions could not detain us. Soon in the morning our party of seven, three very agreeable ladies, and four shall I say equally nice gentlemen (I would if I dared,) set out in an open summer car for a ride of thirty miles. Would that I could describe that ride through Euglish scenery! Hawthorne hedges and sunken' lane.-; long avenues of shading beech trees; stately oaks and chest nuts; fields of emerald; and fields turned by the pjow for grain; busy plowmen, yellow hay stacks, t hatcher-like houses; sheep of su perior breeds., rolling iu fat, and browsing quietly in their fields; noble mansions uf the wealthy; ele gant stone arches across all streams; sweet quiet villages; monuments peeping above the trees, and seen from alar; deer quietly feeding iu droves in their parks; pheasants unaweil moving about in the fields, and the black rooks contrasting with their sober brown and white; a pleasant breeze, and checkered .-kie.-; all these combiued to make us have a delightful drive. Our steeds are a spanking pair, and our driver with an avoirdupois of'2o() lbs., taught theiu them how to speed - along the perfect rorttls. io grass grew under their feet.

It is not necessary iu thia age of the world for the farmer to rise In the mid dle of the night and begin his work. This getting up so early in the morning is a relic of barbarism. It has made hundreds of thousand- of younjr men curse the business. There is no need of getting up at three or four o'clock in the winter morning. Tli tarmer who persists in dragging hU wife ;ind chil dren from their beds ought t be vL-iud by a missionary. It is time enough to rise after the sun ha.s set the example. For what purj-o.-e do you get up i1 To feed the cattle V Why not feed them more the night before .' h is a watte of life.

Editor Journal: In compliance with your request, that I furnish the Jour nal with a series of educational articles, I desire to state, that I am perfectly willing to do so if you will take them irregular as to date, aud as opportunity to write may present itself. I believe that short, earnest communications, plainly written, may be instructive to the people, and may help them to aright judgment on the most important ques tions of this day and generation. It is my business to serve the wonderful out come of educational enterprise, and whether by word, deed or influence I stand ready to do so. You must excuse ine from taking any further notice of ( your correspondent from the First town- j ship. I know but little of him, but had supposed him like thousands of the honest tillers of the soil to be a gentle man of good feeling and amiable tem per. I knew nothing of the measure of his intelligence, anj am no better in formed now. But the last article signed by his name, whoever wrote it, is so full of reckless statements entirely voia oi trutn, ana aoounas in such mi- ngnant spite, coarseness and rancor, that I must leave the author to find an tagonists suited to his capacity and disposition. I am not troubled about my efficiency as Superintendent. Placed without my solicitation in the royal line of school workers eight years ago by a Republican Board of County Commis sioners, notwithstanding I was known to be a strong Democrat, elected three times successively as Superintendent, receiving the vote of every magistrate without regard to party, and rewarded from hrst to last bv assurance after as ' surance of my fidelity and success both from home and abroad, I can well afford to overlook the petty spite of such scrib blers as your correspondent. Now not another word in this direction. RUN THE SCHOOLS TOGETHER. We regard this obligation as the very i " P" bcqooi system. 1. C .1 L. 1 : 1 , . .. they hSve mad as many mistakes as made, were level headed when they placed this amoDg the school ! V",8' rh,nTlrof a killf"1 geral, like Jackson ot Lee, when drawn up with all his forces in the front of the enemy sending against his embattled lines a single regiment or brigade, seeking to win the battle in detail, and being cut off and decimated as fast as he sends thoin. The merest tyro in military Rcience would call that an absurdity. Would it be less absurd to employ our limited pecuniary means in running one I su' mwu.geuce, .L.tnu8iwm, power and zeal any combination or physical force ever seen on this planet. Let them all move together on tbe strong holds of ignorance, and the very mo mentum of the attack is irresistible. It is known from one end of the county to another, that the schools are all in mo tion. Conscientious committeemen are on their mettle to employ the best teach ers, and to look after the comfort of the children. The (superintendent is hurry ing to close his examination of teachers, and to get out among the schools. The teachers themselves know, that they are under careful supervision, and are anx ious to test the proficiency of their work against their competitors in the rase. And thus it comes to pass, that without any newspaper puffing, or subsidizing convenience, lie tsnda an unemployed teacher ready Xa, make a little money in vacation., and be gets his neighbors to conseat to put the school machinery in moion. He cannot find over a month and a half at any time between the last of March and the first of Dec. that he can keep one-half of the children in the school room. What is the consequence? About the time the school gets fully organized, and the chddren begin, Vo learn, the school has to stop forth want of scholars, or is continued wih a hand ful of pupils for the benefit of the man whose sons and s,nd daughters are not needed for he crop. Now this is a s r . ii,, t. n l,i-l lr In Iha maanlima ,u!,ul - .; , , . , - , 1 lnUuenee does such a school wield oil; the cause of education? Nobody knows I of its existence even in the next town ship. The Superintendent cannot visit it. because the pittance which he gets for his year's work will not support him, and he must do other work for a living. And even if the salary was sufficient, he has much other educational work to do besides visiting schools. n short, such au, institution of loavning is a lost insti tution. Its muuey is lost, its influence is los;. if; tsaoher and scholars all are I0.-I. iiud ail probably from the foolish-n.'s.-.. ignorance and obstinacy of one man. Iliitllie simultaneous running of the s. hools 1'mds its noblest argument in its effect upon the people. The results of such a movement in the increa.se.1 ac tivity, energy and zeal of scholars a ml teachers ale of course iireat. Itut when the stirring fact eoi.ueu to the wry lire side, of the Lt'opie. that the enlir" seh, ,1,1 uiachinery of the county is at u, yU. that the children of the farms are at the knees of the nursing mother of t-d neat ion. ihat every cross roa.l a:,l bridle path have their teeiinv.g work. is. th .( every school house waim and comfortable is open. th.u every 1 I'll -ted school ollicer is in his .laei'. and Ihat everv dollar of t'A( school fund is h( iii' st l et. lied v 1 j- fullest value.no one can e -I ;uaie the benefits of such a t. iilixiCi'i!
