The Philadelphia Ledger publishes an
Item of lufernsatlon oeneerning
obligations which wilt be own to many
people.
"On Saturday last, there wasa ones la
Court, Involving tbeobligationsottnent- ,
bars of families to contribute to the sup
port of otbstpersons of the same Wal
lies, who are unable to support them
• selves. Thelaw in this /lane Is not Wm
orally knowu,nor is It generally under
stood how fir these lustily obligations
extend. Besides the ordinary duty of
every husband and Steer to support his
wife and children, the law requires in
-the axe of "every poor person not able
tOorork," and who has children or
grandchildren, parents or grandpa
rents, of "settle:lent ahtlity," that such
parents or grandparents, children or
grandchildren, "shall relieve and main
tain such poor perions," at such rate as
the Court of Quarter Sessions shall or,
der. For the credit of the seven hun=
died thousand people of Philadelphia,
it most be said that the cases in which
our Court is called upon to enforce this
order are comparatively few. But for
the few who desire to evade the duty
Imposed by natural affection, we point
out the fact a child or children hating a
poor father, mother, grandfather or
grandmother, are bound by law to con
tribute to the support of the poor and
disabled parent or grandparent; and
convemetrthechildren and gnumicidl
"dren, even though they be grown up
men cr women, have the same lawful
claim (if they be poor and unable to
.work) to relief and maintenance from
father, mother, grandfather and grand
mother, if any of the last Mentioned be

A Delightful Surprlie.—Ladies
whose faces are clouded by superficial
discolorations, and who have resolved
to try Hagan's Magnolia Dilates a rem
ady, have no idea of the welcome sur
.
prose they will receive from their mir
?ore after a few appications of that
healthful purifier of the complexion. If
at all exciteable. they will scream with
rapture on beholding the change;
whether the blemish it is desired to re
move be sallowness, blotches. pimples,
freckele, roughness, or an unnatural
pallor, It is bound to disappear under
the topic operation of this wonderful
agent. To say that the blemish disap
pears, does not, however, convey any
Idea of the effect produced by this cele
brated beautifier. The unaishgtly tinge,
whether diffused over the whole coun
tenance or in spots, or patches, is re
placed by a uniform, pearly bloom. to
which no description can do justice.

"Tramps" In Jall.—We do not
knUvw what the law on the subject is,
but it occurs to us that Beaver county is
doing a heavy business in the way of
boarding, and providing lodging for
"tramps." S.Ntreely a week passes but
that several persons make application
to some of our justices for an order on
the sheriff for a night's lodging in the
jail, and a supper and breakfast. One
night last week, we understand, six of
these "tramps" wore sent there,and sup
plied with bed and board at the county's
expense. These men are generally as
hearty and as able to work as the most
of those who are thus called upon to
support them in their idleness; and no
doubt a large number of them are per
sons who have "struck" somewhere for
"higher wages," when they were getting
from $3 to IS per day in the mines or
workshops now at a stand-still, becatuffs
of the obstreperous conduct of mon who
would rather be on the "tramp", than
swinging the pick or helping to make a
shovel. We are decidedly , in favor of
furnishing help to the sick, aged or af
flicted wherever they may be found, hut
to a bale, young 200 pounder? not any.
He should be taught and obliged to "hoe
his own row," and the justice who de
tides otherwise, has a very near-sighted
view of "what is best,"

Dr. keylier's Greiti Cwres.—The

Btu:—As several places throughout
the county have been represented in the
county papers recently, either by local
items or by correspondence, called
forth by the agitation of the topics that
are at present uppermost in the minds
of the people, we considered a few notes
from this place would be in order. As
things pertaining to the eternal welfare
of all, are of the most importune, We
will first notice the Christian . aunts*
churches, dm,
There are two churches in this plat*
vi zz, the Methodist Episcopal and the
Baptist. The services in the Methodist
Church consist of Sabbath School *that
past two o'clock,p. in., under the dire°.
Lion of Samuel Johnston. the worthy
1 _and effleletitEtiperintendent,and preach.
' tog at half past three p. in. The Sab
bath School is in a very prosperous con
dition, and, notwithstanding the cold
and disagreeable weattier,the attendance
is usually large. There is no regular
preaching Sabbath after Sabbath, as is
the case when • pastor is in charge ; but
still there is no very great reason of
complaint, as the pulpit is almost every
Sabbath occupied by the Revs. Demo.
Locks or Shields. Re have heard the
good news of revivals in Bridgewater,
and other villages, and would be glad to
see indications of revival of true religion.
here. The financier condition of the
church is very good, taking into consid
eration the erection, recently, ofa place of
worship and the acquisition of an organ.
One thing we were very much pleased
I
with, was the good effect produced by a
sermon preached a few weeks ago by
the Rev. Dravo on the evils of intemper
-1 ance and light literature. That sermon
caused both questions to be freely dis
cussed by both young and old,resniting,
we believe, in much good; and we be
lieve if we have the chance to vote on
the third Friday of this mouth, that our
votes in favor of no license will be
largely in majority. The health of the
people here is generally very good.
there being no prevailing disease either
among grown persons or children. Two
of our citizens—Mr. IL Meaner and Mr.
A, Doutt—have been afflicted for some
time. but are noW convalescent The
wird ferry erected by the Maxwell Bros.
is a complete success. There are Antr
potteries here where large quantities of
stone ware are manufactured, and ship
ped both by river and rail to many places
in the United States. There are quite a
number of lime kilns in operation here;
the kilns formerly known as the Miii
vannon kilns, are now operated by Mr-
W. J. Dunn,who has manifested a busi
ness tact and perseverance that has se
cured success. The kilns known as the
Powers kilns, are operated by Thos.
Conway, a man of great experience lit
the business and under whose manage.
went they are also successfully operated.
The monster kiln of the place has been
erected by Henry Sabring, near the C.
& P. It. It.; this kiln, it la said.will burn
three or four hundred bushels of lime
in twenty four hours. Mr. Sainting
seems to be in luck, maids lime kiln is
nodose to the B. It., that be can ship
with little or no trouble. Then, he has
a contract with Messrs. Mitchell. Black
& Co., to build and opefate fire brick
works on his place; and they have now
taken out a large lot of Bite clay. In
fact, his piece is 3. a very valuable
one, as it cents a vein twelve feet in
thickness, of best limestone,
If
also a
vein of firestone. twenty feet thick, that
cannot be excelled for building purposes.
and several veins of coal. The lime
stone and firestone quarries being about
80 rods in length, in veins that can be
*serried with very little stripping.
Mr.„E. M. Power is engaged taking
out atid shipping limestone from the
Power property just below the run. and
is, we believe. meeting with crood sno
ws& as he ships three or four ars every
day. Messrs. McGowan. & Bullet have
a large contract with Mr. Henry Se
bring. and are now engaged taking our
limestone. shipping four or Ova can a
day. Mr. Baker Reed is also engaged
In a oontraet on Mr. John Davis' prop
erty.
Owing to the increased demand for
limestone by the blast furnaces in dif
ferent sections ofthecountry, and to the
fact that manufacturers have bought up
large quantities of limestone land, quite
an impetus is given to our industries,
as we have the stony and the Sternly for
shipping. Vanport is becoming quite a
place, the receipts of the R.R. For freight ,

axes. The room is Wed by the mister,
and can accommodate, from a dozen to

of a desk and stool for each boy. and - a
seat for the master, &little higher than
the rest Upon each - desk are writing
Implements, consisting of to hair pencil
and a box or cake of ink and one or
more books. In soonsplegems corner of
the room is placed a tablet or an inscrip
tion on the wall dedicated to Confunicus,
one of the most illustrious of the Chinese
sages, and to the god orbiters. Incense
is burned oonstantly In honor of both.
The study boors are from sunrise till
ten o'clock, when the boys go to break
fast. After noes an hour or two they re
assemble, and pursue their studies till
about 6p. m., when th 4, are dismissed
for the day.
When a boy comes into school in the
morning, he must bow' before the tablet
of Confucius, who is called the "Taub

worship. Then he salutes his teacher
and takes his seat.

ally doing well, some, however, are not
giving that satisfaction which is desira
ble. In some instances, this is owing
to *leant of proper discipline on the
part of the teacher; some allowing the
pupils to communicate at will about
their lessons, thus giving opportunities
to take advantage of that privilege, and
create general confusion in the school
room. Others, from fear of giving of—
fence to parents, fail to exercise that
firmness and decision, which is essential
to successful wheel management.
Parents,in many inatances,are to blame
in never visiting the school-room to see
how their children are being taught; but
depend entirely upon the report given
by them. which fa not always to be re
lied upon.
I am gratified to see that much of the
useful instruction given at our "County
Institute," has been received. Many of
our live teachers, give evidence that
these instructions have been of incalcu
lable benefit to their schools.
I wish to call the attention of dtreetors
to the great inconvenience under which
many of our teachers are laboring, from
want of sufficient black-board surface.
Directors should give this their imme
diate attention.
Provide the teachers with the necessa
ry "tools," and then require the work
to be done. M. L. KNIGHT, Co. Supt.

Three special outporings of the Holy
Spirit have been enjoyed.
• The first was during the ecclesiastical
year ending April 1866, and resulted in
the hopeful conversion of 29 souls who
united_with the church.
ThB second was during the ecclesias
tical year. ending April, 1E69 0 when 44
were added on examination.
The third is the one now in progress,
whil;11 has resulted thus tar in this eccle
siastical year, In an accession to the
membership of the church of 52 on ex
amination:
The annual reports of Sabbath School
members have never been less than
nor more than 300. It has coatrlbuted
to foreign missions, $775.
It is gratefully recorded that much of
the prosperity of the church is due to the
earnest labors of the officers and teachers
of theachool. It is indeed a nursery to
the church.
For five years past, three meetings for
prayer have been well sustained, viz:
the Wedriesasy evening church meeting,
and two on Sabbath evening—one by
the young men• and one'hy the young
ladies of the church. The efficient cause
ofthe good accomplished in these years,
is the blessing of Almighty God on the
means of grace. "Except the Lord

How long, oh sinner, wilt thou halt,
How long remain in guilty doubt !
While Heaven and earth, awl air and aea,
The Lord is God I responsive shout.
While thou art halting, slit-grows strong,
And lust and passion rule thy soul;
And all the powers of hell combined
Still hold thee neath their stern oontrol.
0! sinner, choose, in this thy day
To serve the Lord. who loves thee well;
0! choose to walk in wisdom's way
And break thy league with DEATH

Then will the hosts of Heaven rejoice
Then will the powers of darituess rage
But thou—a soldier of the Cross—
Wilt a successful warfare WAOE.
Then, when this mortal strife is done,
Thou wilt a king and couquerer be.
Wear, on thy brow, a diadem,
And have a right to life's fair tree.
