It is always aa important matter in the organiza tion of deliberative bodies, that 'lie presiding officer efcustfi should he a man of ability, digni ty, quickness of and that he should he stiictly just and impartial. That such a gentleman can he easily found among the dis tinguished Demonals elected to the House, we mak no doubt. We could name such able and true m- n as William Hopkins, of Washington, Cyrus L JJarstiing, of Cam! ria, Thad u itanks, of Blair, John Scatt, nl Hun! ingdon, arid .;hers who would do honor to Hie Speaker's Chair.— Rut the question is how is any one of these gen tlemen to be elected ? The regular Democracy have not a clear maj n ity of the members of the House, rite D -mocrats elected on •'Union" \icket* must be counted with them to give us i majority. There are, we believe, ten, in ail, of the la'ter. Now, as to our mind it appears natural thai Dmi.rrals sh u!d act tog-lher, whether they were elected on regular tickets, or on Union ticket®, we suggest to our party friends in the House that they combine with the Democrats elected on " Union 1 tickets, by giving them a fair proportion of tire otlicers to be chosen. If this lie done the Democracy can have con!rol of the II >use arid the party will he perlec'ly re-united and greatly strengthened. Let there be 110 squeamish hesitancy to recog nize as Democrats men who were not elected on regular Democratic tickets, if they still claim to be Democrats and openly avow themselves such. We hope, therefore, that ev> ry Demo cratic member of the House, no matter how chosen, will be invited to attend the Democrat ic caucus, and that a fair union will b* consum mated between !lie Democia's elected on : -gu iar tickets and those who were successful a® in dependent candidates or on " Union" ticket®. fCF"* Owing to sickness among our com positors, we are coin} elleit to issue a half-sheet !this week.

MR. EDITOR : Since I wrote you last and pub lished to the world (hat we had "seceded," we have been geiting along "swimmingly," till ol late, when we became cognizant that there are traitors in our ranks. We had been flittering ourselves that the greatest una nimity prevailed in our midst in regar d to our caus-, and that our confederacy was a "fixer! fact," when the whole community I mean the loyal portion of it, and even some of the trai tors went off in hysteric?, tor "make oelieve" was thrown into the utmost consternation and confusion, by the alarming intelligence that some of our feinalps had refused >o give their "aid and comtoit" to our cause, and were form ing a secret association to resist certain portion® of our our rules and regulations. As I stated in my last official report, some of the la ii-s were in arms, but nobody had no idea that anvbody would he him by it. We were all astonished at the turn they ma ie. Considering that the ladies are the petted ones among us, all hands counted it mean that they should use their weap ons against our glorious cause. (P ■ ivate.) Here I woekb remark—to the gen tlemen only—that woman is a tuibulent being; and like (tie waters of the troubled ocean, she i® con'inually moving and doing something des perate. It was "Women <s• Snnix*' that got oyr grand sirp, Adam, into a fix, and drove tbe innocent old man from his homestead, where he might have lived in ease to a ripe old age. And the former part of the above '"firm" is get ting man into some predicament continually. It's a notorious fact, and at particular times, some of them will even admit it. Hut to iny subject. We soon learned that the disaflected ones were going to have a secret meeting in a dilapidated old kitchen, — a kitch en is a great place lor women to talk —in the outskirts of our capital. A deserter from their ranks told us this. H>w to "s'eal a march" on them, was soon arranged. I was to go among tnem in the habiliments of woman. I was to "beard the lion in his den." (This is "sarcus tical." Our women don't wear beards.) I don ned a lull rig, hoops and all, took the oath,— a horrid one, lor when women swear, it's awful, and when the time lor meeting came, went there, and took a back seat. All kinds ol laces were there; and, judging fiom the contusion, 1 imagined they were getting up a project lo build another Babel. After stationing'pickels with broomsticks, a rourui the house,the President, —who a® usual in all political meetings had been appointed before, a tall, heavy old n.aid who had the frost of between forty summers drowning liei auburn locks, rose, and in a loud voice, spoke as hol lows : "Ladies: a thousand thanks is due you h?r conferring the honor of Presided' of this here tremenjus met tin' onto me. J will send them around tomorrow in a-hand-basket. No perlit icai body that ever met, not even the old Ro man Sennit, can equal this rr.eetin' in inlelleck. IV e have met here to defend our caws." Then throwing up her voice with her hands, and rol • ling her eyes to an alarming extent, she ex claimed, "I stand here on IVimmins Riles." ( Plus was figurative, for she was standing on an old board. VVimmin's Rites would'nX hold a female of her size; it would break down ) "You all know bat has brought ns here. The 'lords of creation' h?.s been domineering over u: too long. They have been unposin' 011 ns, and they want to do it agin. They want us now to knit stockings for the soldiers out (<f pure patriotism, while they a:e stealing enougli from the Government—out ol pure patriotism too to clothe a whole army. II the stockings were to b" kn-t out of their patriotism, they would be thinner than those knit ofgos®a ner threads. L want all of you to put your foot down on it!" (Gere she stamped her doable sole, No. 8, vio lently on the floor, and sank, exhausted, into an arm chair, prepared (or the purpose; wiping her face with a large, red palmetto handker chief, which she had displayed while making gestures in speaking.) A silence of a few minutes ensued, during which smellingbottlea and handkerchiefs were resorted to quite extensively; w lien up jumped one of the initiated, and in a voice that sounded like a boy whistling into the bung-hole ofan empty cider barrel, addressed the chair thus: ' Mr. President. I'll have it moved that a com mittee be made to write resolutions, to show how we (eel on the subject before us.' A com mittee was accordingly made by the President Alter which the mover again lose and haran gued in this manner: "I made that motion out of pure patriotism. Patriotism is proverbial in our lamily. It has been handed clown to us from generation to generation, and it's pure yet My grandfather was a near relative to Ben idicl Arnold, and he was full ot patriotism.— But the geotiwin? stuff is a leet|e scarce now- BEDFORD, PA., FRIDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 15, 1861. a-or vs. You kin find plenty who are full of it, it they are well paid for it. My grand daddy showed his patriotism by walking bare footed, across the room, three times during the Revolutionrry war. He had no stockings. Such instances are rare now." The thoughts of her ancestor's suffering affected her so much that slip sat down arid had to resort to a restorative. The next speaker was a robust specimen, who in a stentorian voice, gave veol to her feelings in ih'.i manner: "I think your talk is Notwithstanding the government ;s bein' chea ted and robbed by thousands of those who like a cankerous worm, air gnawing at the very vitals ol ttie treasury, yet I would be will ing lo show my patriotism by knitting stock ing®, "IVee gratis," if 1 thought it was neces sary. When the Revolutionary war was fought among the Pyramids and ihe Arabian sands ol Centrial America, the American soldiers — my father one ot th'-m wore sandals, which are no kin to the above luxury. The Ameri can Eagle don't wear rtockings! Think on that, ye who are fighting fir that glo rious bird! When you come to the great Po tomac—the water on which Nelson whipped the Hottentots, and Guy Fawkes bio wed up the Parliament fleet by his Gunpowder Plot stand on its bank, and in the language of the poet, "holler out:" "Leander swum Hie Hellespont And I kin swim this here," without stockings!" She was so much over come that she tell hack and wiped her eyes with a dry kno.-hole, which slip instinctivelv carried in her bosom. Tremendous applause followed. A deafening call was. made' tor a uowjmember, when she aibse and said; "I aint got na intellect, 1 aint got nothing to say.' This se -med to satisfy them. A number of others spoke in the same strain, —some ol the speeches were strained verv fine alter which the resolutions were reported at follows: Whereas —' Some things can be done as well i as others," therefore, Resolved, that no mem ber of this Association shall be allowed Ju kni r* ' any stockings for the use of the soldiers, until i the Government first kicks out those who are I continually stealing its money: I Resolved, That the female portion of this i community know their rights and will main ; tain them. Resolved f That we will recognize no sol ; dier unless he has waded knee deep, bare footed, in the blood of lire Southern, confisca ted oxen ! j Resolved, That inasmuch as thi3 appears to ! be a war of speculation with a good manv, we I will only s marry the soldiers, or contractors, | who come out of this war with the tn.isf mon ! ey. . Resolved, That whoever shall divulge any Jol the proceedings of this Association, shall i be doomed to bean old maid. When this resolution was put, the Pi.-siderit "grinned a ghastly smile," for she was in that "fix" already. the resolutions were unanimously adopted after which the meeting adjourned. What ef fect this may have on our government I scarce ly know; but am allowed to state that the Pres iJ nt and '"abinet are holding a secret consul tation over the matter. Win n woman gets started, there's no telling where she'll stop. 1 am afraid our Government will have to sus pend the writ ot Habeas Coipns, and Women's Rights, too. I'm thinking, however, that this exposure will smash up their organization, al though I'll be doomed to be an old maid! If any thing turns up, I'll let you know.

SCHOOL ETHICS FOR PARENT AND CHiLD. No. 20. Independent of thp relations which men sus tain to each other, there are certain require ments in regard to themselves which must be observed. All men have prerogatives and privileges which must be sustained by their own interfeience. To sustain these prerog ative? and preserve thesp privileges inviolate, men owe themselves the fulfilment of certain duties, which must be observed. It is not on ly necessary that pupils should fulfil all the duties they owe to each others hut, in order that they may reach the grand end sought for, they must fulfil certain DUTIES TO THEMSELVES. They should inform themselves. This i® the ultimate end aimed at by those who send their children to school and, in fact, it is the true ob ject of all instruciion. Improvement seems to ,be the universal wa'chword of the age. The slow, though progressive German spirit, does not seem to be fait enough, and philosophical tpachers are constantly making experiments in their search to find out some method whereby a more rapid and more thorough improvement may be effected! The leachec's whole work in the schoolroom is for the sole object ol the im provement of the pupils; but all tl.at lie may attempt to accomplish, it lie labor years and years, will be of no avail, if the pupil do not attempl to improve himself. Were there no in herent force in the germ ot the plant, no life principle, ail the labor ot the cultivator would be a mere waste of time; the seed would re main a seed forever, and, become nothing more: . . o . * so willi She mind of the child, il there be no ex ertions made by the life principle with which it is endowed, the teacher's labors are of no a— . vail, for it will ever remain the same mind, uncultivated and unimproved. In order to be come true men ami women, it is evident they must labor to improve themselves. It is a du ty they manifestly owe themselves, if they de sire to become what Nature intended they should become. Natuie never intended man to be a mere passive recipient, to receive ev ery thing and acquire nothing; but she has giv en him a mind and powers to think and act for himself, and through his own exertions to become educated and fitted for the duties of life. He must not be a mere drone in the hive, but active and ready fo gather the sweets of knowledge for himself, and not subsist on the products of the honest toil of others. KAPPA. EXIT EDITOR. We are sorry that we have to part, edKorial- Iv, with the Educational Editor of the Inquirer. We have been so edified by his weakly disser tations, that like Oliver Twist, we "wanted more." But like ail things mortal,his educa tional column has "faded away," and, judging from the tone ot hi? farewell address, his day? editorial have been "few and full of trouble." His valedictory appeared last week. It is rich; decidedly so. After whining like a boy who has not received his quota of peanuts ou a Christmas dav, he hurls his invectives at the teachers, and the people of this county gener ally, with a carelessness that might hurt some ! body. His presumptions on the ignorance that —he says—pervades the county, arid his com pliments to the people, cv ill hardly induce them to have a more charitable opinion of him, or the cause \\ hich he pretends to advocate. As a traveling missionary, he should have made it his special duty to go among I lie people of this county and inform them what free schools are. It would have had a salutary effect, no doubt. But we are gratified to learn, through him, that there is some intelligence among us, for he says, a "very few appreciate the full advantage and understand the practical operation of oo r system." Those few must be his patron-. The editor again makes the supremely ridic ulous assertion that our column was established "to injure personal I)'." This puerile nation scarcely deserves a notice. ]i that was our aim, then we are at an end, for like Othello's, our "occupation's gone." But not so. We have endeavored, and shall still endeavor, to do our humble part in building up the great cause of education in this county; and the fact lnat our contemporary ol the Inquirer has with drawn from the field, shall only be ao incen tive to greater exertion in our work. His complimentary allusion to us, last week, merits this notice. Long may fie live to wear the laurels he has won( 7 )in the editorial sanc tum' Sic transit gloria muiuli' S. S. LITEST WIR NEWS.
