of the Island of 1gg, by sufFocating them

the MacLeods, was no doubt a retalia-
tory measure for the !burning of the

the barbarity and revenge with which
the ancient clans waged. war pon each

A. portion of the walls of t4 ancient

being destroyed by the Macclonalds, is
still in good preservation, and as hard as

The occasion of our last visit to this
ancient and iateresting dacha . nearly
thirty years ago, was to deposit there the
remains of aue Of Nelson's sailors, an at,
tached and dear friend of oars, who end..
ed his days some distance from this spot,
but made a 'request that his remains
should be here deposited in the grave
in which his forefathers slept. • '
'He spent twenty years of his life in
the British Navy, and was a gunner on
board the Victory (Nelson's !shin) at the
battle of rrafalgar. ,- I
We boys often listened with !exquisite
pleasure to the , generouskind-hearted
sailor, relating the many engagements in
which he took part,andthe dairing and
bravery of his idol hero Nelsonii One of
his stories whi6h. we heard with peculiar
pleasure was as follows : -Upon one oc-
casion a native of Lewis, who was pressed
into the service, !was on board the same
ship with him, who had. so little know-
ledge of the English languagei that he
followed our friend, and upon very on
easier'that he was spoken to, addressed
him with de tha eag rad/,, :viz., ' f what
does lie say."' ile was conseghently
known amongthe sailors by the the -
epithet, "DeGra,," and of course subject
to much ridicule. Upon one occasion,
however, he turned. upon one o his tori
mentors, though a much larger inan, and
showed fight. A. ring was im ediately!
formed, and a nember of sailors °fleeted
to view the barbarous sport, a v,ery coinJ
mon occurrance ie. ,the N a vv in those
days. Our fliend seeing that " De0 ra
did not get fair Play, internos d in his
behalf, when the bully of the opposite
party immediately attacked and chal-
lenged him to fight. Our friend being . a
mail of great museular power, but -peace -
!able disposition, had no alternative but
to fight or be branded a. coward, aecept-_,
ed the challenge, and with a single blow
!knocked his assailant ir play sprawlin on the
f
the deck, who declined to rehew the
combat. In the mea.ntime
being give to "Degra," the hardy High-
lander soon beat 1 his antagonist. This
incident raised them both in the estima-
titti of • their comrades, espeCiaily "De -
Ga ," who was always afterwards treat-
ed With great consideration anhi kindness
by his shipmates. !! !
- Like our friend, many of those who
took part in the battles of Great Britain/
by sea and land inturned full- of scars
end honors to their home and kindred,
and have their remains deposited in this
and other clachans throughout .this Is-
land, -which may be inferred from the
following extract from the speeah of the
late Dr. Roderick MacLeod, I'M i o dtz ator
of the Free Church Assembly in 1863—
an'excellent authority, himself a native
of Skye, and a d.escenclant of Gobha
Shuratail, from whom ]Jr. MacLeod, of
Glasgow, and Many other eminent . men
are descended: - -

. ed. to the araments of G "at ! Britain
from the Island of Skye ten thousand
foot soldiers, twenty-one Lieut-Cencrals
or Major Generals, one Adjutant Gen-
eral or the British' forces, foty-eight
Lieut -Colonels, and six hui dred:Majors,
1 Captains, and subalterns, aiid for various

1 the same period. Beside no insignificant

Court of Scotland. We know not
whether of atyequal extent of territory
and no larger populatimi, any such atate-
meut could .be made. . The men of Skye
were of some !notice in those days.
Times have changed ; the cry is now -I --

"But great as the glory of Skye may
he in the particulars above mentioned—I
hope I shall not be considered as unduly

church of our fathers, when I say that in
all th0se it has no glory at all, in com-

Advantages of the ractory SyS-
ten?. in Cheese Making.
The adventages claimed for the factory
system are, 'superior quality, uniformity,
higher prices, saving, by buying at whole-
sale, such materials as salt, bandage, an-
natto, boxes, etc., and finally, relieving
the farmer and. his family from the
drudgery of the manufaettire and care of
cheese-• .
It is ot pretended that a better quali-
ty of c eese can be made at the factory
than iit families, but that it is quite
as fine as the best, and therefore above
the av ra.ge of that manufactured in small
parcebn We have enumeratad some of
the canses that conspire to depreciate the
mialite of cheese when made in single
dairies; these are not present in the fac-
tory system.
. The agent or superintendent makes
it his business to see that all parts of the
work are properly performed. He employs
skilful workmen and his ieterest and re-
putation are at ;stake, prompting him at
times to do his 'best. He knows that
neglect or mistakes will not be tolerated,
and the desire to satisfy persons inter-
ested, lint order to secure their pat-
ronage, stimulates him to make every
exertion to build up and sustain a
reputatlion for "fine goods." Ile has
every convenience at .hand for manufac-
turing to advantage and making the busi-
ness a sole employmente_He is not liable
to be disturbed by tither matters

who are so occupied with a variety of

.the improvement of any one particular
!branch.
i
The factories, 80 far as we are ac-
quainted, have acquired. a, high reputa-
tion for quality and unformity.
At some of these !establishments we
have seen a large number of chee.ses,
malting in the aggregate more than a
hundred thousand pounds, so uniform in
appearance, as they lay on the tables,
that the most practiced ceuld. detect,
scarcely any difference in their manu-
factured Such a quantity of cheese Uni-
form hi size and quality will usually
command a higher price in market than
that of Isingle dairies, from the fact that
in the 1 ttter anallowanCe is always made
i by the jntrchasers for unequal or imper-
fect ch ese.
We hive alluded to some of the causes
that ep !nate to increase the price of well,
made factory cheese over that of private
dairies. Another may be added, the
saving df time, trouble, and expense of
pure Sine. The whole 'quantity made
from i
be b gained for and_ bought in the same
1x hundred or a thousand cows can
,
time and at, no more expense than a
," twenty -cow, dairy. " Th is item amounts
.,
to a considerable sum in the aggregate,
as expOts are employed by the prigidipal
commisiion houses in cities, -by shippers
and dealers,, to select and purchase
cheese, under salaries ranging from $500
to $1,000 per year . Others, again, get so
much peroentage on what they buy.
These 8llIlis, of course, come out of the
producer, and hence by so much must
depreciate the price of cheese.
We come now to consider the most im-
portant advantage to farmers in this.un-
;
ion arrani
gement. , It s the relief from
the drudgery of cheese making, and the
constant care and attention necessary in
properly curing aed fitting the cheese for
market.. It woald be difficult to esti-
mate this in dollars aud cents, since health
enters im o the account more largely than
is /generally suspected. It is believed,
and Iwe speak advisedly, that the old
method of cheese making has done more
to injure the health Of women in cheese
dairying districts than any other cause.
Much of the work about the dairies
ought to be performed by men; but too
often the manufacturing and most of the
care of cheese are left wholly to females,
bvsrtaskinee their strength by hard and
exhaustive labor, thereby laying the foun-
dation of weakness and disease.
As the same process has to be gone
through with in Manufacturing cheese,
whethen the quantity of milk be great or
small, and as nearly the same time also
is occupied, it will be seen that what re -
,quires the labor of a great many persons
to do, when cheese makun is divided•up
in families, can be accomplished with
but few:persons on the factory system --
some fnia or six beiug sufficient to du all
the work about an establishment 'man

When it is proposed to start a facter3
if enough are found willing to turn i
their dairies, so as to make a fair star,
say 300 cows, a committee is appointail
to look further -into the matter, to vis1.t
factories and, get all the information o
the subject that can be had. The favo
able report of the committee being hen
they then organize, choose direetors, an
adopt sonae general rules or plans for th
guidance of the aseociation. The ne
step will be the selection of some e
perienced cheese maker as superinte
dent, and the plan for the erection of
factory building.
Generally some person proposes to pn
up the building on his own account, an
to manufacture and take care of th
cheese at a fixed price per pound, d
m.anding a contract on the part of th
farmers to furnish the milk of the requi
site number of cows for a certain numbe
of years. .
The milk of about 400 cows, it is be
lieved, is the smallest quantity that cai
be employed by the manufacturer (whe
cheese making is his sole business) t
obtain a fair living compensation. for ser
vices, while the milk from a thousan
cows can be manufactured at but littl
extra expense, coraparatively.--Anunica7

The Effects. oftihLe New Scho

The evil effects of the new School Bi

the interests of education are concerned

to make the whole education of the Pro

tion, will be to drive some of our bes
and most experienced teachers out of th
profession. Men of education and spirit
will not quietly shibmit to the humilia,-
ting process of being manipulated by
those in many instances their inferiors,
both. as regards education and experience
as teachers. As an illustratien of this
slat:anent we copy a few extracts from
the private letter of a gentleman resid-
ing in the Connty of Oxford, who pos-
sesses in a high degree all the qualifica-
tions requisite to make a successful
teacher, and who has taught for the last
ten years with eminent success, This
gentleman, in- the following pointed
style, speaks of the evil effects of she
new School Bill, the pet bantling of Dr.
Ryerson :--
" Had. the new School Bill been defeat-
ed, it is likely that I might have con-
tinued teaching for several years yet,
but this iniquitTous bill determines me to
go out at the end of the year. it places
all County Board teachers in a subordi-
nate position, which 1 shall never sub-
mit to, and the only way to -better our-
selves will be to pass through the Ryer-
Boman mill to the tune of ;$200 or $300
and get NornaaI certificates. Our new
County Inspectors moreover wiI, in all
likelihood, be raen of "Normal proclivi-
ties" after the Doctor's own heart --men
who will have no sympathy with any-
thing not sniaelting of the grand Toronto,
institution, and with those ideas we, on
the other hand, can offer no sympathy in
-
return. In fact, the whole tenor of this
'bill' ia my own humble but candid
estimation, isnot to rane the status of
Normalists, but to make it appear high
by lowering that of county men. In
other words, we are permitted to remain
in the market—that is, we are not -
solutely driven out of it per force—but
at half value. 1t -may perhaps be said
'read up and get certificates.' Well,
speaking personally, I object to this
most decidedly. ln the first place, these
certificates, especially first' (and
• wouldn't give a brass button fOr any
other) can only be obtained by attending
Normal lectures. These would' take
about two years' time -at least two
courses of lectures would destroy that
time for any other engagement—and
about $!200 in cash-ntotal value about
$1,000; which is an absurdity. And in
the second place, I myself have under-
gone a tolerably fair `milling' process al-
ready, which, together with my humble
experience, would give me the utrnoat
coundence to take hold of the highest
common school in the country- and tenet'
all the branches therein to a much ma, n e
advanced. stage than 1 have ever yet
seen or heard of eoininon school pupils at-
taining ere they lett the common for a
higher school. With all due deference
then for the clerical Wine and wisdene
and your permintion to express myself
freely, that is to say loosely, before I re-
peat that milling 'process 1>11 see Dr.
-Ryerson in France or some other unfor-
tunate country, which expression you
will please pardon."
The views set forth in tbe above, we
' honestly believe will be fully endorsed by
every teacher of any spirit or aiiihty in
Ontario, if we except those W110 may be
