'Our public schools closed on Thursday

our schools have been universally satis
factory. The sun has set on the most
successful era of school-work wo have
ever had In Edenburg. Thu discord
which lias heretofore characterized our
schools was well replaced by justice and
harmony. Prof, Evans' administration
bus been one of judgment and ability com
blued, and ho lias given such satisfaction
that, wo believe, every citizen of Eden.
burg would bid him welcome to our town,

The Shad. The shad hns been 11 mys
tery for years. He comes into tho rivers
n tho spring In vast numbers, and soon
departs to the ocean. His food is Utile
known and his sea life is a mystery. Tho
bulletin of the U. S. Fish Commission for
1881 contains a paper which throws some
light upon tlio natural history aud habits
of the shad. Tho paper is founded upon
tho examination of tlio shad of Southern
rivers, Immediately after they leave tlio
ocean. The microscope was called Into
use and revealed a remarkable state of nf
fairs. The shad Is toothless, and it has
been a mystery how It lived. The natural-
1st of thu Fish Commission found Hint
there was attached to tlio alimentary canal
a great number of ewen, or blind sacs,
like tho vermiform appendix In man.
These pockets vary from an inch to three
Inches In length, and number about 75 In
ach llsh, It was ascertained that ull thesu
pockets were full of food when tho fish
entered tho rivers. Tho theory Is that
these pockets arc employed as magazines
from which tho llsh draws from time to
tlmq while In fresh water. Tho food was
a sea-wecd and the parasites were found to
bo undigested and Intact. It may bo pos.
slblu to find tho ocean homo of thu shad
by tho contents of Us numerous food mag.
azlncs. Tho fish aru very interesting nnd
very delicious, It is to bo hoped that
ntoro of their lifu und hlBtory may ho
traced.

Uvntli or Col. Levi I.. Tnlc.
Last Monday evening at about seven
o'clock, Col. Luvi L. Tato, for many years
a resident of this town, nnd editor of the
Columbia Democrat, died ut his.rcsldcncc In
Wllllnmsport, after nn illness of nearly
four months, ni;ed 72 years, 10 mouths
and 7 days. Thu Gazette & llulletin of
Tuesday gives the following brief sketch
of his career :
"Levi Lambern Tato was born In tho
town of Clearfield, Pa., Juno 23, 1810.
His father, who was 11 Quaker, was a far-
mer in Clearfield county, nnd the subject
of this sketch was his sixth sou. At tin
early ago ho was apprenticed to thu print
ing business in the ofllcu of thu I'cnnxylm
nia Manner, Clearfield. After becoming a
"Jour" ho worked for awhile In Hurris-
burg, whero lie was married, Junuary 27,
183J. By this wife hu had four children
born to him, only one of whom is still
living. On tlio 29th of July, 1838, ho mar
ried his second wife, a Lycoming county
lady, who survives him, together with
four out of seven children.
HIS NEWSI'APEIt WOI1K,
In January, 1835, hu became a partner
of W. L. Moore in tho publication of the
Fioneer & llanner, Clearfield. Shortly after
tills he becaino u partner ot James Mo.
Crackcn In the publication of tho Demo.
crat and Republican, ut Brookvllle, Jefferson
county, Pa. He afterwards, during the
courso of his long und eventful life, be
camu proprietor of the following news
papers 1 Berwick Sentinel, Berw lek Enquirer,
at Berwick, Pa. j lAuerne Jletnoerat, Wilkes,
barroj Columbia Democrat, Dloomslmrg ;
Iycomintj Standard, (dally and weekly),
Wllllumsport Thu Sun and Democrat, Wll-
Ilamsporl, and lately the Lycoming Chionicle,
which paper no owned at the time of his
death, having been In tho "editorial bar-
ness" over forty-eight years, his political
faith being Democratic,
noma positions or piiominencr.
In 1830 he was appointed collector on
thu Pennsylvania canal, with oillec ut Ber.
wick, Columbia county, and during Ids
occupuncy of this position ho published
tlio Berwick Knaumr, at Berwick, and tho
Lvtmtc Union, at Wllkesbarre. In 1801 ho
represented Columbia county in the lower
house of the Pennsylvania legislature, nnd
was nfterwnrds nominated for Stato Sen.
ntor, hut ho withdrew, owing to a disrup
tion In tho Democratic party at tho time.
When the call for the emergency men was
inaile,;durliig the Into war, hu was among
tho first to step forward nnd proffer his
services, which wero accepted.
Ho moved to Wllllamsport In 1807, nnd
from that time up to ids death, ho took
great Interest In tho First Presbyterian
church, of which congregation ho was a
member.

The Philadelphia Timet of last Saturday
contained a notice of tlio "History of Col
umbia county," which wo print below. At
the time of the occurrences spoken ot In
1804, Col. McClure, the editor of tho Timet,
was a leading Republican, and knew all
about the difficulty In this county. His
opinion, therefore, Is worth something
more than that of the young Berwick
printer who, after reading n borrowed
copy of tho book, pronounced It "the
poorest excuse for a history ho ever saw,"
probably because he never looked Into a
history of any kind before. The Republi.
can, too, has been endenvorlug to Injure
tho sale of the book, because It does not
like to have tho whole truth known of the
shameful treatment of some of our best
citizens, nnd the efforts to intimidate
voters In this county. Nevertheless, the
work is selling rapidly, and all who wish
a copy should secure one nt once, ns tho
edition will soon bo exhausted. Here Is
what thu Times says of it 1
During tho Inst few years many very Im
portant contributions to the local history
of Pennsylvania havo been given In tlio
shape of histories of particular counties,
nnd most of these works have been care
fully and many of them exhaustively com.
piled. In this way much valuable Infor
mation relating to the enrlicst settlements
of the different sections of tlio State has
been preserved, and the many traditions of
early times havo been sifted and entirely
dissipated or the truth they embodied es
tablished and crystallized into history.
One of the most Important, complcto nnd
reliable of thesu county histories Is "A
History of Columbia County," by Colonel
John O. Freeze, a well-known member of
the Bloomsburg bar. Colonel Freeze Is
not only nn admlrablo historical writer,
but ho is a man of most patient research,
and his book of nearly six hundred pages
leaves nothing to be done In preserving
the general history of his county. It cm
braces not only the history of the first set
tlements and of the gradual growth of
civilization amid vast and varied trllmln
tions, but it presents a history of the rivers,
mountains, streams, forts, etc., about
which many romances cling. An interest,
lng chapter on tho President Judges of
the county gives biographies of Judges
Selh Chapman, Ellis Lewis, Charles G.
Douncll, Joseph B. Anthony, James Pol
lock, (present Naval Olllcer), John N.
Conyngiinm, Warren J. Woodward, A. K.
Peckham and William Elwell. The most
important part of Colonel Freeze's work,
as a contribution to general history, is Ids
exhaustive and obviously unbiased presen
tation of what is commonly known ns the
"Flshlnccrcek Confederacy." The action
of two or throe dozen lawless disloyalists
in the Fishlngcrcek legion of Columbia
county, nnd their resistance to the enforce
ment of the drnft, were readily magnified,
in tho tlood-ttdc of partisan and sectional
passion that prevailed during the war,
into nn organized rebellion, nnd tlio his
tory of the arrests, imprisonment, dis
charge of most of the implicated parties
without trial, and the military trials of tho
few regarded as specially meriting punish
ment, is anything but a creditable exhib
ition of tho power and justice of a great
government. In point of fnct, the Fish
lngcrcek rebellion did not approach tho
open, defiant resistance to the draft In
portions of Schuylkill county, notnbly in
Cass township, the true history of which
has never been written, and probably
never will be written, as it is better for
both government and offenders that it
should be forgotten. Colonel Freeze has
presented the complete history of the Fish
ingcreek rebellion, cnrcfully compiled
from official sources, and lie has perform
ed a most important service not only for
his own county, but for tlio State as well,
by giving the truth and the whole truth in
such shape that successful contradiction
will he Impossible hereafter. We can well
understand why so painstaking a writer
as Colonel Freeze declares in the preface
to tho work, that "If tho time and labor
which have been required to prepare this
volume for the press had been fully fore
seen, it would not have been undertaken,"
but having undertaken It, he has perform
ed his task with the utmost fidelity.
