The office of County Superintendent of ('o ti eon Schools, if tilled by an able ac tive and energetic man, is, beyond all doubt, the right arm, the very life and soul of our school system ; but, if it is filled by a man of little education, limit- ed i xperience„in teaching, of no business talent or experience, and of indolent habit , it is of no value whatever to the peopl .. The truth of this assertion is fully proved by the experience of the past eighteen year's—the time the office has beeiiin existence. It has infused a now life into our system, and has awakened a zeal in the cause of education which was never known in this State previous to the creation of the office. And in every county in which men of miltilre, e.ipert env() and energy bayo been eboNen to till the offer, puhlie sentiment sustains it and regards it as one of the most impel-- taut features in our system of education; and it is so regarded by all the leading educators of the Union. In counties in which the directors have not been very fortunate in the selection of super,intend ents, public sentiment is not very fa \ orali'e to the otlice ; and many think it— as it undoubtedly has been in a few coun tv, -totally useless. As the time, for chosing persons to till the office is now rapidly approaching, I . propose to submit to the consideration of the School Inrectorx of Beaver county a few of what I think are the qualifications necessary to an efficient discharge of the dunes of the office. I will remark by way of preface, how er, that our t.chool laws, ui there letter, do not impose very many duties upon the Superintendent; but in the spirit of the law the duties are almost constant and endless. riq, The Superintendent should hv moan of liberal culture; his education should be equal to that of the ery be teachers I n the county which ho super in. tends. Whv he should have, such an educidion is so perfectly apparent that it seems almost a wait of time to mention a single reason. The Superintendent is regarded, of course, as the head and front of the profession in this ; but, it lie is found incapable, through a lack of educatme, to hold such a rank, his influence will be nothing at home and less abroad. :‘›cona, He should possess an experi ence in teaching equal to that of the best teachers in his county, lie should be capsule in managing the largest and be...t schools in his county, and should have such a practical and theoretical knowl edge of teaching 'all grades of schools is would fully prepare him to assist and give advice in organizing and conducting the highest grades of schools in his county. It he does not possess this Ca perienee, these qualifications, it must be apparent to the most obtuse that he is in tro vi ay qualified for the office. If his ex perienee has been limited exclusively to ungraded schools, or schools in the rural districts, it is evident that he is not quali fied to render any service to those schools 1.% hich are gradeJ, and in which there are three, lour, six, eight, ten, 'or twelve teachers, and double or treble these num bers of t , graties of pupils. Without such ex per 14fee , he is not only unprepared to give assistance or advice in organizing and conducting them, but he is not quali fied to examine teachers for them ; and this, for the simple and very cogent rea son that, since lie has never managed a graded sch o ol, he is not prepared to judge properly of the qualitioNons required ht teachers for the different grades. Dord, To fill the office elttciec fly, a large amount of business expo • rice and executive ability are ne , • sary, With out these very important qualifications no amount of scholastic attainments—no armor nt of mere book' learning—will enable any one to fill the office with jus t ,ce to himself, or with profit to the in terests and welfare of the people. Bust lie", tact and business energy are essen tial to the usemlness of the office; and many good scholars have proved a fail, 4 UFO in it beIIUISO they knew books rind nothing else. The book learning, how ever, is just as essential as the other. No man eau command the respect of the people, or exercise any good influ ence either with them or teaciwrs of his county, withont good scholarship ; but veliolarship alone will not suffice. lie lutist have the ability to systematize his labors, to execute all his plans to good advantage, and to se arrange all his work as to be able to do the most in the least time possible, and with proper re gard to the actual educational ieeds and condition of every single distr . ) ill his county. Fourth, lie.should be a ready writer anti fluent speaker. A county Superin tendent has necessarily a vast deal of writing to do; and, in Order to do that with credit to himself and the county ho superintends, ho should be able to put ql his thoughts iu such language as would indicate a thorough acquaintance with the laws of speech. That all Su perintendents in our State are not so qualified—that they do not.all possess a very intimate acquaintance with the King's English—is abundantly proved by the book of reports issded annually by theSelmolDepartmentattlarrlsburg. The Superintendent is frequently called on to speak in public. It is in fact his duty, as ho travels over his county, to address the people occasionally upon the subject of education., and to give Instruction to teachers. If he is not a good ready spea ker, this very important duty Must be loft undischarged. This point it seems to me, - is No clear that it is quite useless to enlargetpon it. I may add, however, .that Superintendents are frequently call ed upon to meet in educational conven tions at Harriaburgh, main their neigh ,boring countles,in which subject of mo ment and of general interest are brought up for discussion. In such Instances it is not only a matter of importance, buta subject of pride and honor to a Minty to be represented by a man whose famil iarity with our school system, and whose ability to debate are of such a character as to reflect credit upon those whoM he represents. Pith, - A county Superintendent should be familiar with the school system of our State in all its details ; and ho should also possess a good knowledge of all the laws and decisions by which It Is con trolled, and of which it is composed. This knowledge will prepare him not only. for'a proper discharge of his duties so far as the letter of the law defines them, but it will enable him to answer the inqUiries of (rectors ; to give to them and teachers mu ch valuable legal advice; and prepare him also to dispose of many disputed points which, ,without such knowledge on his part, might lead direc tors, teachers and others into long, un pleasant and expensive litigation. Sixth, The_ more varied a map's expe rience in the work of education, and the more extensive his acquaintance with leading and influential educators,' the bettor he is prepated for the office of county Superintendent, and the wider the influence he will be able to exert in the in terests.of education. A man who has taught every grade of schools, beginning with the mixed or ungraded, and passing' through all the intermedi ates from that to the graded school of 500 or 000 pupils and ten or twelve as sistant teachers, is certainly prepared to superintend all grades of schools, and to appreciate the wants of all the schools of a county. His acquaintance with prominent educators gives him a stand ing in the tield of education that is not to be lightly estimated, and enables him to call to his aid in conducting institutes and other educational meetings lust such talent as his teachers and the general in terests of,the schools of his county may demand. Seventh, A 'comity Superintendent should possess such a hearing, and such a degree of culture as are worthy of the re spect of all good people. His ex porience in life,and his [icy uaintar ce with the world, should be sufficiently extensive to divest him of every vestige of vanity, of boor ishness, of matruerism and of pedantry. He should be a man of calm deliberation, of honest purpose and of good judgment. He should possess much kindness of heart, and inasmuch as the teacher's pro fession stands next in importance and influence to that of the minister of the Gospel, the- county Superintendent should be in the highest senso of the word, a Christi genticutan. With all these qualities of head and heart what a won derful,—how wide an influence, ho may exert upon the Ands of both young and old among w hoin , and for whom he la bors. Example is stronger than precept, but where both are properly set forth, who can measure the influence, for weal or for woe, which a single individual, elctited with the official authority of of lice, may exorcise in such a position as that of a coo nty Su perm tendent ? County Superintendents and all others who have any thing to do in the work of education should magnify their office, and should realize that they stand at the fountain head of the most powerful influences that mould human character; and in all their labors they should constantly look from the misery and degradation of man, up to the glory of God, and ever strive earnestly for both—work to alleviate the one and to promote the other. A TEA - it En. Temperance.—The Conference of the M. E. Church which was recently in session in the city of Pittsburgh, came out squarely on the subject of temper ance by adopting the following preamble and resolutions; "Believing intemperadeo to be an evil of great and increasing impArtance —a great cancer upon the vitals of the nation—productive of misery, disorder and crime—and believing that this, as well as all other questions of moral re form, tcrsucceed must enlist the hearty sympathy and support of the church, therefore, Resolved. First—We earnestly rec ommend our preachers, in all our con gregations, to preach on the subject o temperance, agreeable to the instruction of tieneral Conference.

From that time to the present, liberty of conscienee has teen es• tablishedi in all i parts ef the Boman em pire, and Bible Societies have been form ed in different parts of the world to send abroad the word of God, which has been translated into some two hundred differ ent languages, and sent broadcast over the world. Can we, with all this evidence, refuse to admit that this prophecy has been fulfilled? That the 'Two Witnesses' are the Old and New Testaments? Th a t they were clothed in 'sackcloth' by the edict Of Justinian In 532? That the 1260 years ended in 1792, at which time the 'two witnesses' were killed? and that June 1795 was the ditto of their resurrection? In conclusion, we hope that we have relieved the inquiring mind of nor 'Hazel Dell' friend, and proved to him beyond a doubt that the 01(1 and New Testame n t s arc the'Twn Witnesses'of Rev. xi 3 and that they were 'killed' In 1792. The readers of t.ic•Argns'will no doubt allow that the Wit ne.sses had a resurrection in 1795, and that one and all have been mutually benefitted by the investigation,-is- the tkneere desire of 'our teiend Homo. A•relle of the differences of opinion existing between citizens of Beaver in 1835, in regard to an effort to get a bill passed by the Legisattnre, granting the Mothodists,the right to 'meet a house of worship on the public square in Beaver, came to light in tearing down the ''old dwelling on the Anons lot, last week- The house had once belonged to Dr. M. Adams, and during his occupancy of it, ho was in receipt of the following letter. which may not be unintcrestingto our readers: "BcavEu, March 9th, 'Sin: I have understood that your sect (Methodists) are much displeased at our sect (Presbyterians) for signing a re monstrance to the Legislature against granting a lot, next to Mr. Shannon's, for the purpose of erecting a house of worship. I tun one of the members who signed that paper: and I think your people have no cause to be angry at me or any other. I objected against the erection of our house so near me. I would willingly have put my nettle to the erection of a house of worship for your sect on the further side of the square, next to Mr. Vara; and that I think as near as any two placeS of wor ship ought to be together; but this is not the present object. I offer you A donation of a lot—No. 145—sixty feet front, and one hundred and fifty feet back ; and, if your society should accept of this offered donation and desire to have the whole lot I will sell it at a reasonable price; cash I have -not to give, or I would give it as cheer fully as anything else. 1 trust, however, that this will give no ono cflonse, as no offense is intended on my part.

This picture is taken from an ancient amphitheater, without a roof, and in the open air; the seats rose from the floor, occupied, perhaps, by 20,000 spectators, dui, Christians are the racers, and there are many spectators. They witness our joining the church, and watch' all our subsequent steps heavenward, and hence we should divest ourselves of every en oncuuubranee, and so run that we may secure the prize. Avoiding every sin, especially our easily besetting sins, viz: Unbelief, pride, covetousness, intemper ance, evil - speaking,—"Speak not evil one of another,brethren;"_ a nger also be sets some. How easily aroused, on what a slight provocation it will light up the eye, and mantle the cheek. Let patience have her perfect work, eltc., the, iSehev ers are witnesses for Jesus, and their testimony is not or ought' not to be ob scure, but clear as noonday, that lie bath power on earth to both forgive all our funs, and to cleanse us from all un righteousness. "For it bath pleased the Father that In Hist should all fullness dwell"—Col. i., 19. Mark it; print it in capitals—" All fullness" "in Him," not in us—“ His blood elounsoth us from all siu." This is a race of infinite moment to us; the price is ineffably great; and if we lose It, it Is not a simple loss; for the whole soul perishes. The combatants, the competitors, aro compassed about with a crowd of deeply interested specta tors on earth and in heaven and in hell, who are, or were themselves, contest ants in number beyond computation. "Let us lay aside every weight," Ate., as theblind man casting away hikirtruient —Mark a. , 50; that sin which clings to us; any sinful propensity that stands in our way, "the lust of the flesh, of the eye, the pride of life," and even harm less. and otherwise useless things which - _ would positively retard us; or we can never reach the kingdom of heaven. "Looking unto Jesus;". not unto St. Paul or Peter, or any other saint. Looking away from the witnesses that surround us; unto Joins, "the anthoi - and finisher of our faith." lle once endured great agony, despised the shame, toiled and suffered. lie , s now "set down at the right hand of the throne of God." Even so shall ye be rewarded if ye "run with iatience the race that is set before you. s' And under all the solemnities surroun - ding you in death, be a witness for Jesus, and in triumph then de - elare, like the happy Alfred Cookman recently did: am sweeping through the gates, washed in the blood of the Lamb"—so may it be with you and me, dear reader. EL 'Ton Annus:—G. L. E. i❑ his letter riticizing my pronunciation of the name Rothschild, says the Rothschilds carne A a noble family and the male mew -1 ail carried 8111061-1 ; now 1 would G. L. E. to give his authority for assertion, or hereafter be considered a (1-teat L-yr-E. I have the authority of James Parton the historian, and also that of Dr. R. Shelton Mackenzie, of the troll hers like this Philadelphia Press, to thecontrary. The facts of the rase are these. Over ono hundred years ago, there lived in th% city of Frankfort in Germany, a poor Jewish money changer, named <tinsel Moses Rothschild, who gained a liveli hood by buying and selling the coins of the many little sovreignties into which Germany was divided. Frankfort being a great place of trade there was consid erable, though not very profitable busi ness done, in selling and exchanging coins. The founder of the great banking house was the eldest son of Moses Roth- .child, and assisted his father in hi business, though it was his father's in tention to make a Rabbi of him, and with that intent be sent hint to au insti tution in which young Jews wore edu cated for that purpose. Young Maier Rothschild however did not like theol- ogy, and laid aside his books and en tered a banking House hi Hanover, as clerk. lie remained abanker's clerk to several years, before setting up for him sell, but ut length returned to Frank ior and established a small business auttlar Lo that of-nis lather, and from this tinlvi his weatth imhvased with rapidity tor that day - . At tire utbreak of the French revolution aeruniu hated a large amount of the wealth of the French no- bility into his.coffers, and also gamed a 'reputation as an honest upright banker whose word was as good as his. bond. French emigrants came to him th large numbers, bringing with them jewels, plate, and all they could serze in the hurry of departure, and conceal during their flight, depositing all this wealth with him. Ills entrance into the world of grand finance occurred in ISul when he was fifty eight year 4 of age. The richest of the smaller potentates of Ger many was the Landgrave of Hesse, who held in his strong box two millions of dollars of the money which the English government had paid 1.414, for the hire of the Hessian troops inVir revolution. lu 184.1 the Landgrave was in quest of a person to manage his finances, and ask ed his friend, General EstorlY, to recom mend some suitable person. General J Esturft had noticed thdlinancial ability of Maier Rothschild years before, when he was a clerk in Hanover, and recom mended him for the position. He was summoned to the Landgrave's residence and it so happened that the Landgrave was getting badly beaten in a game of chess, by General Estoril when he ar rived. . • . - Do you play chess r asked the Land grave. "Yes your highness: . was the answer "Th'en step here and look at my game." Itothsehilds otiB}4l. and suggested the movements ty which the game was E3IMI From that time to the And of his life, he was the Landgrave's financial mana ger. This gave him such standing and the use of so much capital. that when the Danish government wished to bor row ten millions of dollars, he was able to take the whole loan. In 1806 the Landgravo became involved in war,and MIS obliged to abandon his capital, ho however secretly conveyed his treasure to Frankfurt and deposited 4 with Roth schild, who had it safely conveyed to his branch house in London. For two or three years he had the use of this mOney, without interest on the easy eoudition of keeping it safe. Thus strengthened ho was able to supply the British army in the Peninsula with money, and to make the stipulated pay ments on behalf of the British govern ment, to Spain and Portugal. As he rendered this service on'terms propor tioned to its difficulty and risk, big profits were enormous. This able and honest man died in his sixty-ninth year 11812) leaving live sons and live daugh- Ulm Since his death the house has grown in wealth and importance, and .s now the greatest banking house in the world. !laving shown the origin of the Roth schilds, from the poor Jew to the great. banker, I can see no reason for changing the datinltien I rare in tny former let ter, Iled,Skya and not Red-Shield. As for G. I E's other assertions, they are all too absurd for further comment, and can only be attributed to him by reason of his limited knowledge of the German. Respectfully, BEAVER COUNTY GERMAN.

And in this disease, we areespecially favored with indications of the urine which en ables us to determine not only , the facts relative to the true nature thereof, but to measure tolerably correctly the extent of the same. We have thus detected and determined the extent of hundreds of cases of Om sumption, many of which being p ient only, tiave been cured by us in la very short time. And whilst we would not hold out inducement or promise a cure, in the "last stage"‘of this dreadful mnlaly we would Just say. that we have cured many cases that so netiiiy resent bled Consumption, that IC was? irnpossi., ble to determine the fact by a r ty, other means than by examination o 'j'the uri nary secretion. Atnotig these we might mention. Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, Heart Dis ease, Female Weakness, -,These diseases oftime4 mach resemble Consumption hi many particulars. They may come on with cough and expectora tion of blood and mucus, pain in the breast and side; heats and chills, follow ed by Weakness, night sweats, clic.

We have cured many cases of this kind, even after they had been abandon ed as hopelessley commtnated. by their relatives as well as the physician. Whilst their Is life there is hope in such cases., By sending a Vial of urine for ex amination, the necessary medicines can be sent by express. L. Otomayst, 14. D., T. L. OLDSUUE, M. p., J. W.

Perhaps it would be well to discuss the question, first, can a woman preach?. Would God that all the Lord's people were prophets. Which command of the decalogue would a woman violate by preaching? The first person commis sioned by our Blessed Savior to go and tell of his resurrection was a woman. May not women now tell that the Lord , bas risen and is seated at the right hand of the Father interceding for sinners, and that he is ready and willing to save all that come unto Him? A a Rermr.

COOPER.--On the 10th inst. in Moon township, Beaver count" PR., Ehner SOll of Robert Cooper, ag(sl 10 years 11 inonths and :20 days. Obituary —Mrs Josephine Ph ill is Power, died in Rochester, Pa., on the 15th day of March, 1572, in the '2lst year of her age. Six years ago, on the same day of the month, her mother died ; and four years ago within a few days, her father died ; and now there remains of the original family but one living member, This estimable lady has been a member of the Bridgewater M. E. Church about 14 years. During all that time, while passing through many severe trials, "she kept the faith delivered unto her." She was always highly respected as a lady. as a conmistant Christian. As a wife and a mother she had few hope riors; "she ordered her house aright;" consumption marked her early for its victim. Until within a few days of the el owing scene she indulged the hope that God would spare her for the sake of her helpless children, but in the meantime was trying to discipline the mind and heart to say, "the will of the Lord be done." She did not dread death, but innocently hoped for restoration to health, as the closing scene approached grace for the hour was r iliven. She ar ranged her little earthly affairs, had her two little children dedicated to God in baptism by her bed side; and when all was done,she el used her eyes and said. ' oh, God ! give inc a peaceful h our which to die. Her prayer was answered, for— "As fades a summer cloud away ; As sinks the gale when storms are o'er; As gently shuts the eye of day ; As dies a wave along the shore, La naught disturbed the peace prollinu; Which her unfettered soul enjoyed."
