MASON BROTHERS, per ,1. W. Currier, (Icn. Ag't. NEWSPAPER TAX EXTRAORDINARY. —The several proprietors ot Printing Establish ments in this place have been ca led upon by Heputy Assessor, Thomas Hughes, during the week and informed that by a decision of the Commissioner of Internal Revenue, under •late of the "ith of November, he has decided that Printing Establishments are lia ble to a tax of six j,er cent, on the gross amount of charges for work done and materi als furnished, which would make the tax on this office over three hundred dollars , at the same time our gross expenses arc almost equal to our gross charges. Never in the history of taxation was there such an outrige. In the first place we are compelled to pay a manufacturers license, then a tax of, we don't know what, because we have never had any— on incomes over six hundred dollars, then an enormous lax on paper, running it up to and 28 cents a pound for the same article which wc purchased before the war at 8 and '0 cents, and now, lastly and overwhelmingly comes this tax on gross charges, which is nothing less nor more than a death blow at intelligence. We confidently hope that Mr. Hughes is mistaken in his instructions, and that the Commissioner of Internal Revenue never made such a decision, but if he has, we pray Congress to explain its action imraedi a'"!r. Congress never intended that printing should be crushed out in this way, because it expressly excepted printers, but according to 'he late understanding of the Commissioner's manic-lions that individual thinks quite differ ' Hy. This decision would compel us to pay M ' tun on alt good and bad charges, on an ' "'amissions to agents, work and materials, fact everything that goes into or comes out 1 pyiuting office, whether bought or sold, ho would be a publisher 'I HORRIBLE MURDER OF LIEUT. HENRY BAKER. —Many of our citizens will be shocked to learn that Lieut. Henry Baker, torraerly of this place, was horribly murdered, within the last three weeks, some where in South Caroli -11 a. Y\ e have only partial particulars. Lieut. Baker visited South Carolina with the inten tion of locating, he became a mail contractor and while passing over some point of his route in a coach, seated by the side of his dri ver, the coach was attacked by ahighwayman, who demanded the valuables of the passen gers, threatening death if his demands were not complied with; on the refusal of Lieut. Baker, the fiend fired upon them, the hall pas sing through the driver and killing him in stantly and lodging in Lieut. Baker, giving him a mortal wound. The Lieutenant endeavor ed to run the eoach off, but a shot brought down one of his .horses, while another wound edone of the passengers. Baker was carried to I a house some distance off where he lingered | between four and five days. This intelligence ! comes to his family through a lady who at tended him in his last moments. Lieut. Ba ker was well known in this place and many sad hearts will be occasioned by the terrible report. At the breaking out of the war, young Baker was in Pittsburgh, he enlisted at once, was wounded several times, and the fi nal winding up of the slaveholder's rebellion found him at his post ready to do or die for his country. How sad the thomrht that so noble a patriot should escape the many perils of war to meet death at the hands of a mer cenary wretch, whose only object was to plun der for his own individual gratification. We dearn that a brother started for the body ear ly this week. He will be brought to Wood berry, %iis county, for a final resting place. WE see by an article which we here quote from the Harrisburg Telegraph of Monday last, that the Rev. A. J. Barrow, late rector of the Episcopal church of that place, has accepted a call to the church of St. James, Bedford. Mr. Barrow bears the reputation of a most excellent christian gentleman and we cordial ly welcome him to our midst. "Rev. A. J. Barrow having accepted a call to Bedford and Huntingdon, has resigned the charge of St. Paul's Episcopal Church, Ridge Road, and preached his farewell sermon last (Sunday) evening. The Rev. J. Hobart Mil let, of Mont Alto, will be Mr. Barrow's suc cessor at St. Paul's. Mr. Barrow has been a faithful pastor, and during his sojourn here made many friends who will regret to hear of his departure." We were requested to announce that Mr. Barrow would commence the regular services of the Episcopal Church, on Sunday afternoon last,but the notice was mislaid or overlooked, and consequently did not appear in our last weeks issue. The service was held according to Appointment on Sabbath afternoon in the Lutheran Church and was well attended. At the request of some who-were present and are interested in the movement we give the following concluding remarks of the Rev. gentleman's sermon: '•'ln conclusion allow me to say, dear friends, that it is with feelings of peculiar solemnity L stand before you this afternoon to take my place as one of the pastors of your town. If 1 came as the successor of one who had occu pied the field before me, I should be at least relieved of the novelty of my position, but ) come as the pioneer of a new- enterprise, that is to say, new to this community. lam here at the call of a few individuals whose attach ment to the Episcopal Church and its servi ces have made them solicitous for their per manent establishment in your midst as well as for the gratification and convenience of a large proportion of those who come annually to the Springs. It may be that rnanv will be attracted to worship with us aud to aid us in erecting a temple to God's glory, and which shall be an ornament to the town, but we trust none will allow prejudice or animosity to speak evil of us or to regard the movement as an uncalled for innovation upon pre-established institutions. If we were fanatics or enthusi asts endeavoring to fouud some new sect, to enforce strange doctrine or to persuade men to believe a lie,then we should deserve all the reproach and contempt that might be heaped upon us, but we are open to no such charge. The Episcopal Church has a history of which its members may well feel proud. We can trace its order and discipline back to Apos tolic days, the nursing mother of primitive, worship and pure Christianity and of the re formation which gave to us our protestant liberty. Not that we forget the noble labors of Martin Luther. Calvin, Melanetlion and other great reformers, but while we think some went too tar in the work of reform and like the Puritans, wandered to an opposite extreme, we retained our beautiful liturgy and common prayer book, our Episcopal ordina tion and scriptural ministry of Bishops, Priests and Deacons, and in order to give becoming solemnity to public worship the simple and appropriate vestment of the white surpljce which we now wear. Our sacraments ar4hose which are acknowledged and prac "tisejjf by every protestant society, viz: Holy Baptism and the Lord's Supper; and with re gard; to doctrine and liberty of opinion the sth article of our church declares thai, "Ho ly Scripture containeth all things necessary to salvation; so that whatsoever is not read thereifr nor may be proved thereby of any man that it should be believed as an article of the faith, or be thought requisite or necessary to salvation." Thus we sec our Church is no novelty, but a thing of history; noithera relicof superstition but the clear and enlightened product of Scriptural Truth. In its lawsand ordinances it simply adheres to to the apostolic injunct ion "I)o all things decently and in order'': and is alike opposed to what is formal and supcrtsitious, as it is to that which is radical and licentious, without order and without reason. It has numbered among its members some of the wisest and best of inen that have trodden our earth. It has had its army of martyrs, and can point to acloud of witnesses or the truth as it is.in Jesus. Kings and Prin ces, Rich and Poor for ninny ages have all alike together united in its beautiful respon ses and chanted its hymns of praise. Upon its long scroll of members we trace Poets, Statesmen and Philosophers, which include the names of -Benjamin Franklin and George Washington : and many a bright saint from a mong all classes and conditionswhohave been nurtured in its communion have gone from earth to possess an immortal crown. Such is our record; "Rut God forbid that I should glory save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ." God forbid that 1 should be proud of my church unless it points rae to the cross, makes that its Alpha and Omega, tells me that I am a sinner and bids me look to it and live- To make that my theme whilst I shall be permitted, friends, to remain with you, will be my highest ambition; and as ! have done this afternoon, may that master who has com missioned me to preach his Gospel, ever in fluence me to take delight in telling of a Sa viour's love, and inviting all to come to Him fcr rest. May God bless us, and so order our goings that His name may be glorified, His church enlarged, and true religion and piety be established among us for all generations, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. School Keform No. 5. A TALK ABorr OUTLINE MAPS. I he Directors bought one hundred and .for ty three sets, last winter, at a cost of about two thousand five hnndred dollars. War times are full of anxiety and uncertainty, and such a large outlay was hardly to be expected at such a time. But it was a step in the right direction, and a first step. Before this we had few maps and little apparatus of any kind. Modern appliance for impoiting knowledge were almost unknown amongst us. Some schoofs were even without blackboards others had them, but never used them. We remember three or four of the latter sort. There hangs the blackboards just where they have been for two years, as bright"and new as the day they were made, uncratched by cray on and unsullied by chalk-dust. We need not say the teachers of these schools were the worst kind of -dunces. But to come back to the maps. Wc think their purchase "turns over a new leaf." The maps are bought. This ia a living fact, worth all the prospects and promises in theuniverse. It proves somethiug. It proves that directors are in favor of reform; that, therefore, other apparatus will be likely to follow as soon as we feel ourselves rich enough, and that the schools and their claims were not forgotten even amid the great peril of the nation. \Y herever the maps were properly used, more Geography was learned, last winter, than ia the whole of the five years preceding. A short exercise was given once or twice a day, and the whole school joined in it. In some schools nearly all the pupils, big and little, were soon able to point out and name most of the countries, islands, capes, seas, gulfs, bays, rivers, &c., of the whole world. Every body noticed this progress, the grum bling, which is sure to come when directors spend money in any unusual way, gradually ceased. The tempest in a teapot subsided. Close fisted tax payers who, at first,could not see the use of spending so much money, be gan to think the maps a good thing to have after all: and some were so unkind as to won der how those stupid directors happened to think of doing anything so useful. The maps became popular, and nearly all agreed that the directors had acted wisely and well. Such were the result where the maps were proper ly used. But they were not properly used every where. About eighty sets were put into the schools. The rest came late in the term, and it was not thought worthwhile to put them up. A bout thirty teachers made good use of them and about fifty did not. Of course where the maps were not used the grumbling became ouder ; the tempest in the teapot grew fiercer. "The maps were useless." "The money was thrown away." Pew took the trouble to re flect that no one was to blame except the teacher. We blush as we write it down, fifty teachers who did not use their outline maps. Their "pupils didn't seem to take any interest," or they"hadu't time,"orthey "did n't know how," or other excuses equally tri fling, were given. Pupils always take a deep interest if the exercise is well conducted. The teacher should take time. Ten minutes a day can not be better spent. If he does not know how he should learn how. Ability to teach Geography from outline maps is no spe cial gift born with the few and denied to the many. Any one can acquire it. There are the maps and the key to them. Nothing more is needed. If the teacher is iudustrious and has common sense he can learn to teach them, in a week, as well as anybody. Shall it be said that directors buy apparatus; but that teachers will not use it and shall directors be censured for the best thing they ever did, be cause teachers neglect their duty? We shall see what we shall see. J. W. Dn KEILSON, Co. Sup't. IiKDFORD MARKET. [CORRECTED WEEKLY.] BEDFORD, Pa., December 7.
