Si i'CKiSTnnr.T. Candidates for
Cuir.tv Sniinriiiti-iid. nt of Common M'lioo.s arc
becoming numerous. Wc hope that the directors
who will meet in convention on the first Tuesday
iu May, will look to the. interest of the
schools, and elect a man who Is competent to fill
the office. The success of the schools depends
upon the efficiency of the. Superintendent.
Mauy schools become very deficient on account
of partiality shown ou the examination of teach
ers, who may be favorites, and who lack the re
quirements of couduelmg a school. It is in the
director's hands to choose the Snjieriutendent,
and the, Superintendent should bo a man who
will take the proper interest in the schools to
supply the best of teachers, but when the Su
perintendent is deficient both the scholars and
directors become the sufferers by it. Every di
rector has a solemn duly to perform ia the se
lection of a Superintendent, and it is hoped that
they will, for once, throw aside prejudices and
select a coinpeteut man, even if a much higher
salary is required to advance the cause of edu
cation, and reflect credit upon the couuty. Every
director who voles iu lavor of a candidate who
looks more for the spoils or office than the in
terest of the scholars, in doing himself and
children injustice, and is ceLsuraDle by every
citizen that voted for him for director in his dis
trict. The office of school director is a rcsiKv.isi
blc one, and whoever is honored with the office
bhotild bear iu mind that he is not placed th'-re i
for his own personal interest, but for the com
mon good of the risiug generation, uud that he
is responsible for every act that will bling in
competent teachers to his district through an in
competent and partial Superintendent.
A sew sioek of ladies and children's hats,

TiiEr are Coving. We notice in last week's
Dtinocrd the names of a small army who are
ambitious to serve the county in offices. Some
offer themselves, some announce themselves,
while a few have beeu induced to ruu "through
the solicitation or many Democrats." One can
didate think he ought to be rc-eiected, because
one year of his term was "cut down" by the
adoption of the new Constitution, and new asks,
as a mailer of justice, that tie dear peop'.e elect
him for three years to make up the loss of one
year. Another candidate slates that he had
three years' practice in the office as clctk, which
qualities him for the office. With him office
hunting has beeu of a hereditary character, but
his 'goose i already cooked' by the gentleman of
ChiUisouaquc. Six have announced themselves
tor High Sheriff; three fir Prothonotaiy ; six lor
Treasurer; and only two for County Commis
sioner. This number will, uo doubt, be tripled, as
several ou the slute, to tie nominated, arc held in
reserve to appear through "the solicitation of
their many friends," to as to make it, appear as
though tbi-y were the most popular, and ih.-y
had secured their nomination by their own tcr
soual popularity. We are happy to sec that the
people iu this county, at least, will not suff r for
the want of Democratic applicants to save them
in office.
The Band. We are informed that the Sun
bury Corutt Band will lesimie their t.peu air
concerts in the Park as soon its the weather will
permit. The members of tills organization are
entitled to much credit for tin ir perseverance
during the past winter iu improving themselves
iu order to become more efficient iu musical ex
ercises. These youug men have devoted a large
amount ol time, and have been at considerable
expense iu the efforts to become proficient. The
music tliey give us during the f iiiuiuer evenings
is no Uouiit appreciated by our citizens, aud we
do not consiicr it altogether fair that the mem
bers should pay out their own money and devote
their time merely for the gratification of others.
We would suggest, that eiuco they have ugaiu
concluded to give us musical entertainments
I irratig. a subscription or collection be tuKcn up
for their beuelit, aud that contributions be made
from time to time to pay at least the salary of
lueir teacher, ana that whenever occasions occur
that music may be required lor parados, Jc,
that we do as other tuwus have been doing hire
our own baud, even if we have to pay a few dul
lars more, ll will leave jui that amount ex
pended in our midst for cirruiaiion, whereas, if
a strauge baud is brought lu-re, ihcy Uke our

Genel Oi:irr. rou Decoration- Dai. Ma
jor General Devcns, the Commander-in-Chief of
the Grand Army of the Republic, has issued a
gcueral order for tho general observance of Sat
urday, May '., as Decoration Day by that so
ciety", inasmuch as the ClHh Jails on Sunday ;
but a supplemental clause makes ihu following
provision for the observauca of the Slst instead
of the 20th in certain Slates, of which New
York is one : "The attention of the Coramander-in-Chief
has been called to the fact that several
Stales, hieh have made Memorial Day u legal
holiday, have provided that whenever the 30th
day of May occurs ou Sunday tho day following
shull be observed. He advises, therefore, that
comrades in theso departments go forward and
make preparation for the observance of that
day, as he has much confidence that the Na
tional Encuiupmcul, which will meet ut Chicago
ou the 121U ol May, in order to ensure a full re
coguiliou of the day, will modify, so far as
those departments are concerned, the regulation
which now requires t he day preceding lo be the
one observed."
Busolauy. On Friday night last the tobacco

These settleuiv'iils must be published by printed

ten davs after seUletiant. The auditors must
also tie copies of the same with ihe Township

standing around church doors at the close of ser
