we did see something new, the other day, on

to pur office—we refer -to the■ jqewr bulk window
lately put up by. Mrs. Hollar, in foont of her
Millihery and ladies’ dress and trimming store,
on foe ‘‘ Cheap .Corner.’’ The display in this
window is such that nol a few ladies spend more
time when they go out shopping than they in
tended to, for thc rensom that they can not pass
the “ loves of bonnets,” and other nice .thin gs
to be seen there, without stopping to admire
them. J[f they step inside they wUI find many

and colds, which make their appearance during
the winter and spring months. We would ad
vise all such who are afflicted with any lung dif
ficulty to apply at once to Dr. Keyset’s Pectoral
Syrup, * medicine prepared by a physician of
the old school, who has cured himself by this
great medicine, [ nearly twenty years ago, and
•has since used it with wonderful effect. We
know Dr. Keyset to be a man entitled to the re

. The world improves with every fool that dies.”
We, the people of the United States, are some*
|imes told Chat are the most enlightened and
iugWy civilized people upon earth; and under
thedeluove appearance of its probable truth we
svftlloir the whole dose. Unwilling to look, for
fear of the contrary, we never see a single cloud
in the sky of our mental horizon, contenting
ourselves with the gracious palliation th« 4 hu
mhn nature ; .is hot:infallible. What if it is not ?
Season andjjidgment are given to us, and the
means of knowledge and wisdom are spread
broad-coat before ns. How. can we then, as a
people,4daily the truth of willfully oaa
nog much Of our own folly. What are the ex
citing interesting conversational topics of
the day ? Look wound ydd and listen; first and
foremost comes thd great “prize fight” or “mill”
in its doggerel acceptation, between Heenan and
Sayers. Men' aro seen together in groups upon
the street, in stores, dwellings, and even not far
from thc vestibule to places of public worship,
discussing the merits (physical) of these won
derful pugilistic champions. Behold them be
coming pugilistic [ themselves—their arms and
hands in motion.. Heenan will whip 1- • Heenan
mast'whip, or .ottr national pride is gone!—
Alas! that the pride of a nation should be
thought to be b&sed_upon such, barbarous prac
tices. We might as well assert that a dog-fight
between a well-selected American cur and a sim
ilar one of English breed, woold be the test .of
national strength^,courage and greatness. The
idea here becomes preposterous. How much
better theaiftuiauubject 'Was turned into scorn
when alia fed to; and the ’intelligent assertion
made, that nothing short of incarceration and
hard labor ehould fie the just reward meted out
to the physical endurance of these wonderful
pugilists. Hut change we now. A little better
, .theme is up. tho agh sometimes less wisely ar
gued—the great political agitations now going
on.' Divided, as we are, into- factious, too nu
merous to month n,,.each having its furious par
. tizans, proclaim!: long andfiood that they are

ed at .that; its of ypre, calm deliberations, order,
and the good of. be whole country, are now
ue veef thought of ‘ Party spirit, party spoils and
party availability Are ho w the watch-word of the
day. Instead of Drying to lead people in the
right, he who would play the politician must
shat his eyes to this, and go with them in too
wrong. If we loqk to oar Halls of Legislation,
to the law-giversjof the land, to the men who
have been sent there for the greatest Wisdom and
experience, we shall see the same misguided
conflict and'diffeijtjnoe of opinion. Still we are

Udaysburg contains a communication of
» certain wiseshrey in-that section, no dhobi,
who has taken upon himself the grave office of
instructing the Softool Directors of the county
how to act in casing their rotes for Count; Su
perintendent of Cbmmon Schools, at the conven
tion on Monday next He is a Wise mao, no
doubt. Whitt a sty ell the School 'Directors
could not be like him. Among other things, he
says, “it has bean hinted (delicately enough)
that by the Constitution of Pennsylvania,, no
man can hold an offioeof this Commonwealth,
tudess he has heed a resident of the District or
.(County, in Which ho is a candidate, at least one
year preceding bm election’* This is a base
garble. The Constitution contains no such
danse. Hero is What is -said, verbatim et litera
tim: “iJo person shall be appointed within any
county who shall not have been a citizen and an
inhabitant therein one year before his appoint-
TnenL” It does not say elect or elected, but ap
pointed, and has more • immediate reference to
special appointments, and an appointment does
not mean an election, as an election must inva
riably be by ballot or viva voce, or it is no elec
tion. Besides this, the enactment of the Com
mon School law mast have been within the pale,
of the Constitution, or it could be no law, and j
this law among its requirements for qualifies- !
lions of candidates is silent as to this. It is to !
be hoped that this piece of folly will be passed | :
unnoticed by .the'Directors, as it is only a mis- 1
erable subterfuge resorted to by some of the
.writers of the Ho]Uiday.sburg papers for tbe de
feat of highlyqualified and deserving candidate* .
