Of course some people growl that it is too late to help the corn much, but for our part we have r.o disposition to quarrel with Providence on that score. Guess He understands His business. —lt was gratifying to seq- how our citizens tlicked around Gov. Curtin at R 'bersburg. Every one wanted a word with the grand old Governor.

NASH, 3m Spring Mills House. —The morning train going east on Tuesday last was packed with parties that went berrying, and just as many went in private conveyances. Conduct or Stoughton told U3 that it had been going on at this rate for the last couple weeks and that his passengers always returned with bushels of ter ries. It requires a largo crop to satis fy the desires of so many hundreds. —Neighbor F. P. Musser is now nursing a sprained limb. lie was out on the mountains on Thursday irght, on special business, and in returning to camp he found a log in his path. In attemptiug to step over the log his foot struck a projecting knot which caused him to fall in an awkard shnpo on the log, with his left leg under him in a twisted position. Help was near -at hand to bring hiui home. Hope Pierce will soon be over the mishap. —On Friday as the people were re turning from the Itobersburg Soldiers' Reunion, Mr. McMullen, had an ugly i spill-out near town. The driver tried to get ahead of tl o band wagon ai d drove on a stono heap which in tire dark ho did not see. In an instant the whole cargo, consisinting partly of ladies, was landed on the hard road, head foremost. The affair looked real ugly, but fortunately uo oue was seriously hurt. —Wonder if President Arthur, Queen Victoria, the Czar of Russia or the 81nth of Persia, are foud cf peaches ? Very likely—aud if they had seen the large, luscious fruit of that species which Mrs. F. P. Musser sent us last week they would have grown green with envy. But that does not in the least disturb our tranquility, nor di minish our thankfulness to the kind and thoughtful doner, which feeling is shared by our family. —The Basket-Church Sunday School Convention held at Centre Hill on Thursday the 17th Inst was tlie first experiment of the kind in Northern Pennsylvania. That it was a mrst gratifying suc cess all who we re present will gladly testify. The large audience room of the church was full at the threo ses sions and the baskets more than suffi cient to fa'isfy the wants of the large and happy assemblage of adults and children. The most delightful feature of the Convention was the manifest and sweetly experienced proof of an essential unanimity among all the ser vants of the Lord. K. C. REUNION AT EKiißßsnuno.—The reunion of Company "A" of the 148 th Regiment, Pa. V., in Kreamer's grove, about one mile south of Rebersburglast Friday was attended by a vast crowd of i>eople, estimated between 2000 and 3000. The occasion was favored by the fairest weather and by the most order ly and congenial lot of people that ev er assembled together. About 10 o'clock. A. M. Mnj. R. 11. Forster and Ex-Gov. Curt in arrived at Rebersburg, where the company al ready stood in ranks waiting on these gentlemen. Sergeant J. 11. Miller then proceeded to call the roll, assisted by Sergeant I'. P. Meyer, who answered for many of the absentees by a state ment of the places and dates of their deaths. This done company "A'' and soldiers from other companies under command of Lieut. S. M. Spatigler, with the Brushvalley and Millheim Bands and their flagmen at the head marched to the grove, followed by a long string of wagons, beaiing the sol diers' widows, orphans and families be side a multitude of others. Oil the grounds this large procession was met by a still larger mass of people who had come there from all directions. Almost ( every part of the county was represent ed and all wore smiling and cheerful faces. Having gathered around the speakers' stand the exercises were open ed by prayer by Rev. W. M. Landis, and the bands struck up with national and patriotic airs. Maj. Forster, the former captain of Co. "A" then 'gayea graphic description of those events and scenes of the la to war in which the company and the regiment had been playing prominent parts. It was an in teresting historical piece of literature and kept the audience sitten live from beginning to end notwithstandibg its considerable length. Lieut. Springier here announced that Gen. Beaver had arrived on the grounds and would speak at once as he had but little time to stay. The one legged col onel of the regiment made his appearance on the stand and was re~ cived by three enthusiastic cheers from the boys., which compliment lie return ed by a few hurnerous and choice re marks relative to their war career. It being near dinner time Lieut. Spangler proposed to postpoue further addresses until the afternoon, but the audience were not ready to feed their bodies until their minds were well stored by a brilliant and effective ad diess of that prince of orators—Ex- Gov. Curtin. Calls for "Curtin" arose from the crowd and be responded at once. The leading thought in his speech was bis love and pride in the old Keystone state for having done more than its duty iu times of war as well as in times of peace. His telling remaiks were frequently interrupted by applause. The audience having been dismissed made preparations to satisfy the inner mauby emptying their baskets,while the company went into camp 3 just as they did iu war, received their rations, cook ed and had their dinners 011 grouud in front of their tents. This part of the programme presented a noyel sight and was highly eDjoyed by all. In the afternoon Col. (J. 1). Pifer, Col. J. P. Coburn, Sergeant Meyer and others addressed the soldiers while the bands interpersed their remarks by some fine mnsic under the leadership of Prof, .i. 11. Feelirer, the renowned band teacher. Sergeant Meyer while speaking to the boys was abruptly stopjH'd by several shots and a surprise and confusion was created in the crowd by cries liko "The enemy Is near," u Up boy sand on them," "Shoulder muskets," " Forward —march." The company'left the speakers' stand in a quick march towards the scene of action on another part of the ground and were eagerly follow ed by a curious aid (xpectant lot of people. There the men wero drawn up in a line of battle, live pases apart and led by Lieut, tfpangler engaged in an attack on the enemy, who approach ed from the opposite direction amidst a volley of shots. A regular sham bat tle was fought, captives were taken and returned to the stand under escort of the victors. The whole affair was done up in a very natural manner and the people witnessed this military man oeuvre with much pleasure and excite ment. The afternoon having thus been pkasently spent the balance of the pro gramme was carried out at Hebersburg in the evening, wliera a tine display of fire works took place lasting marly an hour. This completed the many pleas uresof the day and everybody admitted that the whole was a grand success and will remain fresh iu the memories of the participants for years to come. Re bersburg and its soldiers certainly de serve all credit for the manner in which they had made the arrangements making this one of the most success ful reunions ever held in these valleys.

This is the primary, tho very first condition of good schools. By the term ynod tctch cr we mean one who has the necessa ry educational, practical and moral qualifications, and whose heart is in the work: One who will not consider it too much labor to visit the parents of his pupils personaly and endeavor to show thein the importance of sending their children regularly, and require them to spend their evenings at home, engaged in preparing their lessons: One who not only possesses a blameless moral chaiacter himself but who will make morals and manners a part of his daily teaching. We need teachers who understand their work and are willing to perform it—teachers of strong individuality, good disciplinar ians, who will not shrink under dis couragements and dificulties—to lift our schouls and ourselves .out of the rut of inertia, indiffere ntism and general negle:t into which we have fallen. There must be a thorough shaking up of dry bones if we desire our children to realize substantial benefits from our schools. Teachers who hou estly and fully do their duty should be fairly and reason ably compensated. The same rules that govern the price of skilled labor in other professions and callings should apply here. We have an intelligent, competent board of director s. They are of our best and most progressive citizens. They understand the situation thoroughly, and we hope th ry will arise to a just appreciation of duty at this important juncture. A prominent New York farmer, who3o crops are proverbial for their abundance, uses no other fertilizer than land plaster and clover. llis plan is to sow clover, plaster it so as to se cure a rank growth, and turn under for his other crops, wheat included. He has kept up this plan for over fifty years, and claims that his farm is grow ing more valuable each year. MARRIED. At the resdence of J.
