Jlied. On Friday night. Dec. 31, nt
twclvo o'clock, Tho Year 1875, nged 12
months,
if tho dawn of n new ycitr win ever
heralded with the sntno ctithltsinBm nnd dis
piny Unit greeted tho birth of 187(1, It Is bo
yond our recollection. All over the country,
bonfire", Illumination", brass bandq, nnd
church bells, nntioitnced tho nrrlval of tho
Ccntoiinhil year. In Illoonislmrp;, tho houses
of many of our citizens were nbhize with
gas lights, and numerous gatherings of old
nnd young, waited for the hour of twelve,
and as tho town clock struck tho lat knell
of the dying year, from innny merry voices
were lienul the greetlnc'IInppy New Year,
The bells rang out their joyous peals, nnd n
liberal ttso of gunpowder was miulo In sa
lutes to the new born Infant, 1870. Tho
Illumination nt the residence) of John M.
Chumberland l'r., deserves especial men
tion. The windows wero lighted with
candles representing tho thirteen original
states, and tho elTect was very fine.
As usual, with tho old year hnvo died
many fond hope.,, and with tho new, many
good resolutions liavohcett found. To some,
187fi will bo reinombered ns n year of pros
perity and happlnes, ; to others, it has been
a seaon of constant struggle against mis
fortune and adversity, and to many It will
ho borne in mind as tho said timo when
death visited their households, nnd with
ruthless hand, snatched from their midst u
beloved form.
It is to bo hoped that tho new year, with
Its Centennial celebration, will revive tho
industries of the land, and bring an end to
the hard times which so long havo weighed
upon us. lien another lliuiiksgiving day
shall come, may wo havo abundant cause to
return thanks for our national existence and
lor .renewed life and success of our industries
all over thu country.

The experience of tho Find lay Conner
man is sad nnd mournful. Ho has lost faith
u the professions of his fellow men. Hear
how he talks :
Last week a man stepped up to us and
lid ho would pay us every cent he owed, if
e lived till Saturday night; wo presume
that man died. Another said he would pay
i in a ilny or two, as sure as we were born ;
query elm the man lie, or wero we oorn :
Another said ho would settle his bill as suro
as shooting ; wo are led to tho conclusion
that shooting is decidedly uncertain. Quito
number said they would see us to-morrow;
those men havo been blind ever since, or
so to-morrow has not come. Ono man told
s, sis months ago, that ho would pay us as
ion as ho got some money ; that man would
not lie. and of course has not had a cent
Ilut the experience of editors is about tho
.mo all over, says the Fremont Journal.
Last year wo stopped ono man's paper who
owed six dollars. Ho was serving tho pub
lie, and wo met bin whilo in tho dischargo
fhis duties. Ho averred that as soon as
e got through and iseived his pay, ho
ould make it all right, ho would, indeed.
Ho told us tho same story this Spring, and
e presume he is still assessing. Another
imo all the way, fivo miles, to town to
issure us that he was all right, and that wo
need not bo afraid. Ho would havo somo
money soon, and would pay yes, he would.
Some timo la er wo "saw" his money at u
istance. lie was putting it in a bank. It
was the last and only glimpse wo had of it.
Ho never had a hatchet anil ran around haefc-
ng cherry trees, or they would havo died
without anybody knowing who killed them.
Another would pay us alter sheep-sliearing.
His sheep are long wools, and it takes a long
while for tho wool to mature. AnotUcr
would pay after wheat harvest, but his wheat,
like the coutury plant, is of slow growth and
don't ripen often. Another had poor health,
bat was improving. He ha3 had a relapso
for though hoeaU hearty and work hard, he
don't get "round" worth a cent. Wo would
havo somo hopes ol getting even witn sucn
folks somo day, when an administrator is ap

2. That which ha, length, but not breadth or

3. The line that measures the shortest dis

4. Tho line that changes it, direction at ev

Although this is not the place for extended
criticism of the Proftssor's work, it is well for
ns to suggest that curved lines include thousand,
more than the two species circular and ellipti
cal ; that figures and not line, are mathemati
cally spoken of as regular or irregular; that a
verticil line, (witli reference, now, to the earth
considered a, a sphere,) is any radius or it, pro
longation, and may, therefore', be neither up nor
down to the spectator, but sloping, for it ih not nec
essarily at right angle, to the piano of his sensi
ble horizon, but is, in thi, particular sen-.e, "the
lirectiou of a plumb line; a line normal to the
surface of still water," as Webster justly defines
it ; that, in strictness, a, no two pen-ons see the
same rainbow, so no two person, at the same
time', have the same rational horizon, (upon tho
assumption that the earth I, a sphere, which, or
some other equally definite shape must be us
sumed in ordir to bring this discussion within
tho scope of an exact keience geometry, not ge
ography,) nnd that, consequently, every lino
that is horizontal to ono is sloping, (either ne
clivous or declivou,,)tn the other, and that both
vertical and horizontal lines are oblique to all
other straight line's with whieli they make either
more or less than a right angle, (measuring tho
smaller,) for obliquo lines, like perpendicular',
may bo in any absolute direction, horizontal,
vertical or sloping.their definitions being purely
relative, thus: "oblique line, (Georn.,) n lino
that, falling on another, makes oblique angles
with it." "Perpendicular line, (Geom.,) a lino

Self-reliance Jlco. Jfoutz. We want self-reli
ant teachers, not in absolute sense, as this Insti

general improvement. The truly self-reliant
teacher will gather from others all the informa

n turn, is able to give. The difference be
tween the dependent and tho self-reliant teacher
is like the difference between the sun and the
, The sun i, the fountain; the moon,
cold and lifeless, is dependent on the sun, is the
mere passive reflector of borrowed light: so of
teachers ; tho ono is brimful of experience and
knowledge, and constant in hi, out-flow. The
other, should the cloud of circumstances inter
vene, is completely bewildered by the darkness,
and, like a blind animal without a guide, stick'1.
not in the mire, tut in arithmetic, algebra, and
grammar.
Self-reliance is necessary, first, in order to
gain the pupil's confidence; secondly, to mako
the teacher lively and bright ; thirdly, to secure;
a good reputation; fourthly, to obtain n compe
tent salary ; fifthly, to promote the teacher a
own comfort.
Children are adept, at reading the counte
nance. A dependent leacncr is icanui nun no
cannot do all ho ought. Children seo it, and
though he may strive to unravel the problem
before him, yet, like tho fly in tho spider s web,
the more ho struggles the more perplexed he be
comes. Independence noes not imply mai con
ceit which, when tested, is found wanting.
Teachers, cultivato this self-reliance in your
pupils ; encourago them lo do for themselves ;
you cannot fill their cranium, by nny action of
yours ; it must bo their own work, if their mind,
are furnished with knowledgo that will be of
use. That teacher is a robber who himself per
forms the labor that properly belongs to the pu
pil.

DiiMIJ, N. Y Di:c. 30. Two women
mother nnd daughter, named Ilutlcr, living
on that spur ofllto CatskilUnf which Mount
Prospect 1, tho termination, recently had
nn encounter with a bear, In which was man
ifested n heroism worthy of thoso early d-iys
In American history when the settlers were
compelled to bo continually on tho ntcrt
against ferocious beasts and still moro feroci
ous Indians.
Mn. Ilutlcr Is a women, about thirty-five,
and her daughter .Tcnnlo U sixteen. It Is
tho custom of tho husband mil father to bo
absent In tho woods sometimes two or three
days, leaving his wifo and daughter alone
with a good watch dog nnd riflo in tho cabin.
Ho was away on Sunday last, About fivo
o'clock on thnttday tho daughter Jennie, was
preparing tho evening meal for tho hogs
which were squealing in the pen, a log en
closure a short distanco from the 'house. A
sudden change in the cries emitted from the
sty, and tho furious barking of tho dog Joe,
caused' both mother nnd ibtughter to run to
tho door of the cabin and look out. What
was their amazement to seo a largo black
bear with ashoat weighing sixty or seventy
pounds, tuckod In under ono foro leg nnd
trying to climb out of tho enclosure The
Ilutlcrs had lost tjirco hogs already by tho
inroad, of other animals and tho women re
solved to rrscuo this ono if possible. Tho
dog was making a great fuss on the outside
of the pen but was afraid to jump inside
and attack the bear .Mrs. Ilutlcr se zed
eavy maul, luedin driving wedges in logs
and her d uigliter snatched the axe from the
woodpile and the two moved nt onco to tho
pen. They both jumped Inside the enclosure
emboldened by which the dog also leaped
over and commenced harassing bruin in the
rear. The women rained blows hcavv and
quick on tho bear, which presently dropped
tho pig, and, turning on tho dog, had him
in his embrace, in a twinkling and crushed
him to death. Tho efforts of the women to
d spateh the bear were redoubled. The bear
was now raging with fury, and advanced
with his jan a distended upon tho girl who
w.is wielding her nxo unmercifully. With
one sweep of his great paw he struck tho
weapon from her hands and the next in-taut
had pressed her into a corner of the pen; but
the terrible blows that were showered upon
him by Mrs. Ilutlcr witli the maul foieed
him to leave the girl beforo doing her any
great injury. He ruhcd furiou-ly upon
Mrs. Ilutlcr, who managed to elude his grasp
ind retained possession of her weapon, which
she used to good advantage. She shouted to
Jennie to hasten to tho house and bring the
rifle and shoot the bear, The girl jumped
frjin tho pen, her clothing nearly nil torn
from her person, and hurried after the gun.
The blood from tho wounds inflicted on tho
bear by the axo and maul poured on tho
lloor of the pen and over the shaggy coat of
the monster. Hound and round the enclos
ure the contest waged, until at last the bear
struck tho women's weapon with his paw
and sent it flying out on the ground. He
pressed Mrs. Ilutlcr into a corner, whero
sho dropped in a crouching position and
placed her hands over her eyes expecting to
be torn to pieces the next instant. Just
then her daughter returned with tno rifle.
Sho pushed the barrel through a chink in
the log and fired. Tho Dear staggered an
instant on his haunches and fell back dead.
Thoball had entered and passed clear through
his heart, as was afterwards ascertained.
With the removal of tho great tension
on her nerve? Jennie fell lifeless to the
ground, and it was a long time be foro her
mother could summon strength sufficient to
climb out of the pen to her aid. Sho finally
got her into the cabin, and succeeded In re
storing her to consciousness. Neither of
the women was hurt to any great extent, the
aughtcr having tho flesh torn under her
arms where the bear seized her, and being
considerably scratched about tho body.

Tin: 31ainti:kanci: or Health. Tho
maintenance of health is often more dilii
eult than it.-, recovery. Viti'ited conditions
of the atmosphere, unhealthy occupations,
extremes of heat or cold, nnd constant ex
posure to rough weather, are all to many
provocations ol disease. Thero is but one
Mire way of effectually guarding tho system
when tlius subjected to inltuences pn-judi-cial
lo health, and that is lo establish, by
judicious tonic and alterative medication,
vigor of the body and regularity of its func
tions. The roperties of an invigorant and
corrective are happily combined in Hostel
ler's Stomach Bilters, which, at tho same
time that it infuses uuwon'.ed vitality into
the i-vstcm. overcomes all tendency of the
stomach, liver boivels and urinary oigans to
ueviaie irmn regularity in urn uintu.irgu ui
