Imi'OI'.tant Lwivi, Drx'Mnx. The Sn
premo Court has decided, in a cao from the I
Coiiunon 1'Ieas of Nmtliumberland county, that
orders drawn by the president of a board of
directors upon tho treamrer of the school dis
trict, under school law, aro not negotiable bills
or orders, but are warrants for the payment of
money to tho persons to whom they are i-siied,
to bu disbursed by tho treasurer under the ail
i thority of the law. They lliereloro do not mi
thori.o a bubsc'incut owner to maintain suit in
his namo upon u promissory note, hill or order.
Thev do not nos-ess tlio ordinary properties ol
a mere contract, but aro a statutory means of
drawing the public money out of tho hands of
the legal cu-todiau of the funds of tho distiiet
How to we Gas. There are numerous
causes of Pteeti gas bills, which housekeepers
might well look to. I'lominent among these
are defective burners, a poor one of which may
easily burn double tho gas and not give half
tho light of ono properly made. Tlio ordinary
stylo of burner, besides, bums out, and through
ilm cnhircenient of its orilieo soon bce-oiues
wasteful of i:as. Another cause of waste is due
treoplo trying to read or work by several
IlL'hts located In a high chandelier ur fixture
instead uf by ono light hruiight near them. A
single burner, ono foot distant from the pago of
a book, will shed on that page thirty-six times
more lliiht than the same burner U feet away ;
or, In other words, tlio single burner, located as
11 rot stated, will light til' tho pago as brilliantly
as sdx chandeliers of six burners ouch, hung six
feet from thu book, Tho absolute ipiantlty of
light Is tho same at all distances, but It Is spread
, out over nn area which increase with the snuaiu
of the distance front the llamo j bo that it Is ob
vious that lights are used very wastcfiilly when
they aro placed far away fiom the objects ll at
they aro to Illuminate.

fitnTHCT Tim Fi:i.t Asi) Wm-Tf. Must peo
ple have noticed that a favorite articloof winter
clothing for children is a comforter wrapped
around the neck. This, pays a writer for a med
ical journal, is a great error. Tho feet and
wrists are tho proper members to keep warm.
The face and the throat will harden into healthy
indiflerence to cold ; but tho muffler, exchanged
for an extra pair of thick Focks and knitted
gloves, would preserve a boy or girl really
warm and well. Kronchltis and soro throat
have declined lilty per cent since tlio absurd use
of high collars and twice round neckerchiefs
went out of fashion ; and if the poor would take
better care of their children's: feet half the in-
fantllo mortality would disappear. It only
co'ts a trifle to put a piceo of felt or cork in the
bottom of a boot or shno, and tlio dilfc-rcnco is
often considerable between that and a doctoi's
bill, with, perhaps, undertaker's beside.

correspondent, speaking of our recent
election, says :
"In lllooiusburg, wheio a somewhat com
plicated and twisted invention, or double re
fined and compounded system of rostriinuz
ing called cumlilativo voting, is practiced at
the polls, all organization fails. Xo expres
sion upon any thing is possiblo wheio sev
eral persons aro to bo elected to the same
position, and wherein only expert gambling
is a winning card. Elections linvo lost so
much of their interest and vitality Hint tho
voters generally interest themselvcd only in
those offices wherein eacli can cast only n
singlo vote, or two at most. Yet amidst all
this demoralization and hair-splitting sleight
of hand, wo observe tho saino sure land
marks as here. Tims, Hon. David Lnwen
berg, ono of tho most influential and ever
activo Democrats in that county or that
quarter of tho State, carried tho city for
Mayor by n majority largely in excess of his
party strength five or six times as much.
Jle is a genial, most worthy and very popu
lar gentleman. Yet tho strong point of his
strength consists in his earnest, constant and
ihvays unyielding political activity.

It will not be out of place at this time to call
attention to the act passu! by thu Legislature
last winter fur fixing and regulating the terms
of all members of councils and other ward, bor
ough and township ollicers, excepting school di
rectors, and also fixing tho time for organiza
tion of tho legislative depaitments of tho mu
nicipal governments of the Coiumonu-calth.
Tiie law provides that all ollicers named abovo
except school directors, elected on Tuesday, the
13th of February, "or in any year thereafter.
whoso term of oilico would, under exi-tlng laws,
expire prior to tlio first Monday of April, shall
continue in oilico fiom tlio date, at which said
term would otherwise- expire until the first Mun-
lav of April next ensuing thereto; and tlio
terms of their successors shall begin on the fust
Monday of April and shall continue for the pe
riod now fixed for the duration thereof by exist
ing laws In each particular case; and hereafter
all elections fur ollicers which will be vacant on
tho first Mor.ilav of April shall be lie-Id on the
third Monday in Fcbiuaty next preceding
thereto." Si'cond si ctlou of the same act says,
"that tho members of legislative depaitments of
municipal governments of this Commonwealth
hereafter elected, shall as-cinhlo In their respec
tive places of meeting fur the purpose of organ
ization, at ten o'clock in tlio forenoon of the
first Monday in April of each year ; and that
mayors of all cities of this Commonwealth shall
ho Inaugurated and take the ollicial oath nl
twelve o'eluek noon of tlio samo day."

Tho preachers say "faith U tho cvldenco

tion of tlio namo of that tower, would mako
it fit our national capitol exactly. Tho
lower of babbit is Its bcs,t name. Somo "po
tent and grave Seigneurs" In Congress havo
enough of cl.wle lore to knorr that the
cackling of f;eeo onco saved tho city of
Home, by waking lip a sleeping sentinel in
timo to prevent a barbarian Irruption with
in tho city walls. And they aro saving tho
country after tho samo manner. Streams of
babble flow from them 'wt steadily na water
from perennial springs, and like tho geeso
they expect to bo deified for their cacklo. It
comes from them "as tho waves come when
navies aro stranded." I once saw a school
of whales in tho Facifie Ocean, they wero in
a playful mood find were sporting around in
n lively manner. Whalcs.and minnows, too,
in our tower of babble remind mo or that
scene. They spout oven more lustily than
lhoe Pacific whale, they cackle moro in-
litstrioualy and louder than the sacred gecso
of IMme, they babble more Inccseintly than
did the builders npon Shinar's plain. Tlio
confusion of tongues is more mtnifest among
them than it was ever among tho babblers of
Hahel after an injunction had been served
igalnst ths further proceedings with the
building of the tower. By tho way, couldn't
an injnnation bo mado to lto against our
babblers. I thinlt thera Is ono court with
proper jurisdiction. It is tho court pknlte,
or the court of the people. If yon agreo
with me, Saxon will apply .to this court and
see if this eternal, I might say infernal
babbling, cackling, spouting cannot be
stopped.
When that unliquidated and nowalmosl
forgotten instrument, the Constitution of the
United States was made, the Congress was
instituted as a legislative- body.investcd witli
power to niako and repenl laws. AW it
consumes its time in trying to mabo reputa
tion for its members, to secure their re-elec
lion, to make party capital, and let law
making go to hades.
Tho workin-ii in our tower of babble
should remember the fate of their prototypes,
They wore dipcrscd about tlio earth and
unable to communicate with each other,
The power that created them disponed and
lcstroyed them, So too, the power that sent
our "babuleis to the tower, can uisperto
them and make them as insignificant in the
future, as most of them were in the past
That power is tko people. And Acy aro
tired of the babbling, cackling, spuulin
crew.
1 f a grand procession of nil the voters iu
tho United States could uuictly march
through Washington, each one spending
lay in viewing the public servants, how
small our great men would become, and how
many of them would bo relegated to private
life 1 opine dial if this were dune that the
scene that occurred over eighteen hundred
years ago, in the temple that crowned the
height of Mount Moriali, might be icpc-ated
and the thieves and money changer i be
driven from our temple. Mind you, I am
nut wilting of either paily, for they aro both
alike in what I am talking about.
I feel scriptunilly inclined to-day, my
mind seems to seek smiles in that book, and
us I wrote of the Tower of I'.ibble and the
Temple of Moriali, I remembered Samon,
and laughed aloud as I thought how the
long-haired giant would havo felt ashamed
of himself if ho could revisit this planet
md see what improvements our modern leg
islators havo mado in tho nso-of his favorite
instrument of warfare. He slew a thousand
of tho men of fhilUtia witli tho jaw bono
of an ass but some of our babblers ar do-
better, many of them aro killing llicm
a name. Don Carlos, that restless spirit who
wants ft throne, seems to bo further from nn
earthly ono than over. If tho Alfonslsts,

The number of soldiers' Orphans in the

after the number at tho elo-o of each year
is boon steadily reduced, except that iu
1S71 there was a slight addition over tlio
number in the schools at tho close of IRO'J.
Since 1S71 the decrcaso in number lias been
carried forward steadily, and on May ol,
1870, the number of children iu the schools
was only 2.7S9. Tho Superintendent esti
mates that on May 31, 1S79, thero will not
bo moro than fiUO orphans in the care of tho
State, and that no great hardship will arise
from their discharge at that timo under thn
law as it now stands. Tho number admitted
to tho schools sinco 1S7C has been 7,SDS, and
of theso 3,443 wero discharged becauso they
