The Rending Telegram wants school teachers pensioned nnd In their behalf sajs . A great deal is said about pension ing public olllclals nowadays u.'d tho war veterans, but there is a class of hard.work ed and deserving public functionaries who nre seldom if ever thought of in this con nection. '1 he public school teacher, when popular, efficient nnd acceptable, labors for the success of the system, and perhaps devotes a lifetime to diligent and thorough research and study, the benefit of which is given to classes of scholars that appear at recitation. The teacher's entire time Is occupied with his work, and there is noth- ing within bis mental reach that ho does j not appropriate and apply In the courso of : his experience. When ho becomes old and infirm he is cast oft like old clothing and left to take caro of himtelf. Why not place worthy teachers on retired list and pension them? Letter to Hciuilur Metzunr. Bi.ooMsnunc, Tuesday, March 8, 1887. Hon Vmttra 11. Metzqaii, Harkisburq Deaii Sin: By u bill in the lower house, It is proposed to cast upon litigants tho burden of maintaining one of tho officers of our courts, tho stenographer. It might ns sensibly be nroposed to revert to tho old practice of requiring parties to pay tho ex penses of the jury, or even to ask them to defray the salaries of the judges. Tho theory of our system of government Is that the people bear tho load for their mutual benefit. Whllo the line has not been sharply drawn In all matters, it has be come tho accepted practice that tuo gen. cral machinery of tho administration of justico Is a public charge; and I seo no reason for excepting the stenographer moro than tho jury or the judge or, if you please, tho cle'k of tho court or tho prothonotary or any officer of thecnunty,as, for example, the county commissioner or tho commis sioners' clerk,who, though not directly con. ccrned with the Interpretation nnd tho en- forcement ot the law, is yet an admlnls. trallvo officer chnrged with duties that re late to tho community. Tho notion that litigants aro merely combatants with whoso quarrel tho statu has no concern, and who ought to furnish their own weapons and material of war, is a notion tint non-busl-ness men in tho country are npt to Imbibo from public spirited and zealous guardians of the county treasury! but It is somewhat anthiuatfd and open to tho suspicion of being lllfoundcd. An enlightened com monwcalth, such as ours Is supposed to be, does not regard every honest dlllerenco between citizens as a groundless variance that they ought to settle at their own ex pense without tho invocation of tho courts, nor upon tho courts as a substitute for tho triul by ordeal or wager of battle. Every citizen Is directly, as well as collaterally, Interested In tho malntananco of tho courts Including all necessary nnd con venient adjuncts a regularly constituted trlbunnls for the determination of Issues; and lip ought not to stultify himself and Injure his fellow by seeking to throw upon the Individual what belongs to society, The usefulness of the stenographer I do not understand to be in question) when that point is raised, It will up time enough to discuss It. The bill, virtually conceding bis usefulness, aims at tho relief of tho county from tho tax of maintaining him. It Is not even worth while to enter hero upon the proof that tho employment of a stenographer for the use of all tho courts, criminal as well ns civil, is an eponomlo measure. If It were true, which It s pot, that tho present business of tho courts could bu oheapller done In tin old way; yet not cheapness is tho controlling consld. erallon, but cllectlvcncss-ccrtalnty, ills. patch; If these cost something, that Is no urgument for making thi) Individual pay for thu general beucilt, Respectfully, S. N, Walkkii, Stenographer, You can see the Spring hat styles now. Early, but the spring is likely to be early.

It Is said from one school room alone forty out ot ninety children who attend arc sick, and in consequence the physicians are complaining of being overworked. This is probably all owing to the sanitary con. dltlnn of tho town. Thero is not a foot of underground drainage in thu borough, where upwards of sixteen thousand pcoplo reside on about ono handled nnd eighty ncres of ground. It wns rumored that a malignant case ot small pox hnd been dis covered in a densely populated quarter of the town, bin the rumorcould not be traced to a reliable souuie. Pottsville Chronicle. I.lKiitntrccI, This town has been usually quiet sinco I last wrote. Most ot tho worklngmen have been In tho employ of tho lumbering firm of Hoffman & Mclllck, nnd lu making tics for tho new railroad.

Ho Is now eighty years old, but enjoys these sports with tho same zest us he did when a young man. Mr. U. V.

It got over the halter strap and in Its efforts to get back hurt Itself so that It died be fore morning.

Walters, of 010 Third avenue, Altoona, was on that bloody field ministering to tho wounded. Among those who had received mortal wounds was Lorenzo Rogers, whom Mrs. Walters thinks belonged to a Pennsylvania regiment. He had been taken Into a corn crib on tho farm of Edward M'Pherson nnd which was rented by John Slcntz. Being wounded unto death and knowing that his tlmo was short, Mr. Hodgers gave to tho lady a tln-type picture of his wife, little daughter and a baby- It Is In tho hope that this item may be seen by the widow of the soldier that it is now written.

Wo clip the following from the Shenan doah I'rogressi On the 2Ud day of .May, 1833, a valuable team of horses was stolen from a farm near Accotunk, Fairfax county, Virginia A few hours nfter one of the horses returned, with n piece of tho halter hanging from its head. Tho horse had evidently broken nwny from the thieves. Tho whereabouts of the other horso remained a mystery un til last week, when it was traced to this town by O. P. Hart, ot llazlelon, Luzcrno county. Mr. Hart got a description of tho horso sometime ngo, through an advertise ment. Later he learned that the hoiso was the property of Daniel Seybcrt, who re sides near Berwick, Columbia county. Seyberl's explauatlon for ids ownership was that he got the horse from his deceas ed brother, Joliu. Where the brother got tho horso from could not be learned. Other facts collected brought Mr. Hart to this town. Squire Shoemaker placed a search warrant in the bands of Constablo "Tully" Phillips, who found tho horso in tho possession of Wm. ltcmly. Mr. llemly said he secured the horse for trial, with a view to purchasing it. If the horso did not meet with his requirements by tho 10th of April ho was to return it to Seybert. Una on tlic Teetlt.
