The Johnstown Voire says that a freight
brakeman on the middle division. Pa. 1". It.,
named Ward, was seriously scalded at Son
man stntion, on Siturday evening last, in
eonseiiueiiee of the blowing out of a plug in
the furnace of an eiigin- upon which he was
at, the moment warming himself, thereby
causing his person to be deluged with scald
ing water thrown from the boiler. The
same pajM-r also informs ns that his own
train was lying over on a siding, but. how a
train could be on the middle division and at
Konman station at one and the same time it
fails to explain.
A tailoring man named Patrick O'Con
nor, formerly a resident of Washington
township, near Snmmitville, and a subscri
ber to the FltKKMAX, was knocked from a
cinder dump at Altoona, on Tuesday after
noon last, and falling on the track, one of
the driving wheels of an engine passed over
his right hand, mashing the bones and flesh
into a shapeless mass. Several of his ribs
were also broken and his head and legs
somewhat bruised. 1 1 ad not the engine been
promptly stopped he would doubtless have
lx-en torn to piec es The unfortunate man
has our sincere sympathies in his sad mis
fortune. Aside from those lietter feelings which
prompt tho human heart on such occasions,
there were many reasons why our people
should, as they did, pay marked respect to
the mortal remains of Mrs. Tello, whose
death in our midst is noticed at some length
in another column. Her stay amongst us
was brief, it is true, but even in that short
space of time she impressed all with her
lady-like deportment and her unassuming
piety, as well as with the kindness arid he
r.evolenceof lier true womanly heart. Add
to this the love and respect which all bear
for her only daughter, the accomplished and
devout Mother Ilortense, and it will be
readily imagined that our people, though
strangers to the deceased lady, would not
have, been true to themselves if they had
liecn less expressive in their respect for one
who lived a truly Christian life and died a
truly Christian death. The prayer of all
who tw.'licve as she believed is that she has
found eternal rest.
The lifeless remains of an old man named
Thomas Itiloy. who was employed as a Ia
lsirer on the Ebiusburg and Cvesson Branch
railroad at the timeof itsconstrucf ion, were,
found on Tuesday morning last in a closet
in an old tenautless house located on the
plank road, near the line of the railroad
named above, and about one mile and a half
this side of Cresson. The discovery was
made bv a man named Win. Connor, who
had occasion to visit the old house in quest
of a piece of stove-pipe which he knew to be
there, and when found there was an over
coat anil a carpet-sack under the head of
the deceased, and an empty bottle, presumed
to have contained liquor, was picked up
nr.nr the bod v. 1 1 is supposed the unfortu
nate victim of iutemperance nd exposure
had taken refuge in the house some three or
four days before his lifeless remains were
discovered. Ah inquest was held by John j
Sharbangh, Esq., of the Summit, when the
alHive facts were elicited, after which the
remains were turned over to the poor au
thorities for interment.

LiOretto, Jan. 10, 1874.
ME. Euitok-As a devoted friend of our
free seh-inls, L have been at some pains to
investigate the foul charge of. godlessness
that has been so unjustly urged against
them by the enemies of the system. This
investigation has put me in possession of an
array of facts which should ert'ectual'y put
a stop to their clamor.
Since, the advent of the public school sys
tem, murders, robberies, suicides, forgeries,
defalcations, and other crimes mentionable
: aiul unmentionable, have become quite rare.
The honesty and purity of our public men
; are beyond reproach, and are the admiration
I of the world. Vice-President Wilson. Kx
j Vice-President Colfax, Oakes Ames, "Boss"
: Tweed, the immaculate Murphy, and New
j York's incorruptible Judgus, are only a few
, of the "bright particular stars" in our polit
i ierl firmament that could be mentioned.
I The honor and honesty of our business men
i are proverbial. No shoddy cloth is uiauu
j faetured, and the adulteration of liquors, spi-
cep, drugs, dye-stutl's, artificial fertilizers,
etc., etc., is no loi;ger practised. No more is
deception hi vogue among that very useful
class, the patent medicine men, while vend-
j ing their delectable compounds. Innocoun
i try is dishonest speculation or illegal means
j so little used for the obtaining of wealth as
i among our people. Jim Fisk, Jav tlould,
the Credit Mohi'.ier, and other examples,
might be cited in proof of this, if it were no
cessary. Bribery aud other improper influ
ences are no longer at work at onr elections
or in our nominating conventions. Voters
now-a-days only look to the good.of the coun
try, regardless of all other considerations.
The morality of our people is illustrated by
the sanctity with which the marriage vow
is environed, thus rendering divorces exceed
ingly rare and making us a model for other
lands to copy after. The modest demeanor
and c haste language of our young men are
admirable beyond description. No blasphe
mous oaths or unbecoming expressions ever
pollute their tongues; no vile whisky or other
inebriating compounds are poured down
their immaculate throats; gambling hells are
closed for want of customers, and rowdvism
and similar offences may lie classed among I
the things of the past. But the crowning
! glory of our young men is the respect and
J reverence which they show for their parents
! and other aged people. (Ircat improvement
I in this particular i" also noticeable among J
person of larger growth. In these latter
w rongfulness of lying, cheating, quarreling,
etc., and the lessons in our reading books in
culcating virtue and moralitv. as evidence
' of the moral tone and tendency of bur coin
: mon schools. I miM amplify these points,
but I desire to make" this commtinii ation as
brief as 'possible. To thoe. we might add
the absence of .all immoral instruction. This
it. is trite is a negative quality, but it. is an
important one. Again, in many of our school
j rooms are to be seen cards hanging conspicii
: ously against the walls containing sentences
. incub ating lessons in morals. I have copied
some ot these mottoes. They read: "Speak
j the Truth," "Have Faith in Cod," "Be kind ,
: to one another," "Never forget that Cod is i
, ruling." Another card lore the Colden j
Kule, and another the Lord's Prayer. In :
j view of all these facts, I am astonished that j
any one will charge our public schools with
lieing "immoral" and "pagan"! I do not
j see how we could go farther in this direr- !
j tion, unless we teach "a formula of belief," .
and "read the Bible" and "pray" in our )
i schools, which things L. E. H. especially j
i uenouueos. ,
I I conclude then that our public schools are
'. decidedly lilor.tl in their tendencies. I do
j not know of a solitary thing connected with
! them to make them anything else. It is not
! logical to charge them with being immoral
' because some of the teachers are wanting in
j morality. That is no fau'.t of the system,
but of its administration. The law does not
i contemplate that state of things, but the op-
posite. Neither will it do to refer to the
i profanity and vulgarity sometimes so con
! spicuous among the pupils of onr public
schools. That, is no fault, of the system; it
is the fault of our poor human nature it is
1 the outcropping of the natural depravity of
the human heart, which finds expression iti
! some form or other wherever chihh'eu are
brought in large numbers together.
Now, one more remark. 1 have said that
1 do not wish to see our public schools turned
iuto "religious" schools. I wish to explain, j
I do not see how they could be m:wle such, j
unless we should teach "a formula -of lielief," j
to which T would make the same objection i
which D. E. II. applies to Bible reading and j
prayer in the schools, "It is a violence otl'er- j
ed to very many consciences"; or we must, j
read the Bible in the schools, to which I
make the objection that item accomplish no j
good, while the child soon loses all rever- i
ence for the Word of Cxl, and merely asso-
ciates it in his mind with the otlrer books !
used in the public schools; or, finally, we j
must pray in the schools, to which I would I

A Man Found Dbai--1 Mystery. On
Saturday evening last, a man was found ly
ing upon the large heap of burning coal
waste, at Powelton station, along the Ty

both of his legs burned off almost to the
knees. There was not the least thing to in

jxirt of this view of the question then was ,
a deep scar on the right temple as though ;

instance note the innumerable times that
! great moral drama, "The Black Crook," has
I leen presented in ou r cities and large towns,
j to the infinite delight and edification of so
m-;ti thousands of their intelligent and
i mot a! citizens, while still more recently
j Wilkie Collins' play, "The New Magdalen,"
j so remarkable for its exquisite purity, has
j been received with unbounded applause by
j large and approciative audiences. Former
ly such plays as Hamlet, King Henry VIII,
and other vile trash, of which Shakspeure
aim otner itrareatists oi me same kidney
were the authors, were too common in fact
were all the rage The literary productions
in greatest demand among thinkers now-a-daysare
the works of such Christian writers
as Kenan, Strauss, Darwin, (author of the
sublime atid noble theory of man's descent
from the ape,) Tydall, (famous for his prayer
guage,) the much lamented John Stuart
Mill, lately deceased, T. II. Huxley, Her
bert Spenser, and other sound philosophers.
For young persons, as well as for those of
more mature years whose cast of mind is not
so intellectual, mental pabulum of a whole
some character is not lacking in proof of
which 1 need only mention the numerous
translations of such pure prod net ions as those
of Ceorgu ti.md, Dumas, and Sue, from the
French, and the works of such cminont Eng
lish and American authors as Miss Braddon,
Mrs. Wood, Kcyuolds, Ned Buntline and
Sylvanus Cobb, not forgetting that edifying
aud instructive series of thrilling romances
known as "Dime Novels," and many other
works fully as good hut too tedious to enu
merate. Our glorious weekly periodical lit
erature is well represented by The National
Police Gazette, The Muck liake, The Week
ly Scavenger, the Never-Ending Story-Teller,
Harpnr's Weekly, anil Fomeroy's Dem
ocrat. (The names of these papers may not
be exactly correct, as I regret to say I have
none of them by mo to refer to.) These
and others of like ilk, with their great moral
and instructive essays and their most edify
ing and strictly pure tales and romances for
the instruction and entertainment of young
and oid, are thick as leaves in Valambrosa;
and that the etibrts of their publishers to
provide wholesome reading matter for the
people are not without their levvard, is amply
proven by llie wide diffusion of this class of
literature throughout the country. No long
er do our great dailies defile their ptir col
umns with long reports of disgusting trials
and heinous crimes; no longer are their ad
vertising departments made a source of con
tamination to the young and pure of mind.
No sectarian schools, lie they ever so ably
conducted, could have advanced the cause
of morality and religion to the same extent
our godly (I use 'he word defiautly) schools
have done.
Our beloved State Superintendent, ever
mindful of the duty he owes to the young,
calls attention in his last report to a class of
our citizens who, unmindful of their awful
responsibilities as parents and neglectful of
their obligations to the State, fail to send
their children to school, because, forsooth, it
is necessary for thtni to work in order to
earn their daily bread; and that the blessings
of ihe school system may not be lost on these
malefactors, be proposes a scheme as just as
it is practicable that is to erect prisons or
workhouses for the incarceration of such di
alHilical children, where the great boon of
knowledge can be hammered into their skulls
nolens roletis, the cost of their maintenance
meanwhile to la squeezed out of their most
criming parents, if possible. For further
particulars see the report itself.
Oh, I,ilorty! Oh, Progress! how beautiful
thou art! Thou hast only to be known as

Morality of Our Public Schools.
To (he Kditor of the Vombria Freeman :
Silt Since the publication of my brief ar
ticle in your valuable paper, your corres
pondent D. K. H. has pursued '.he subject of
the morality of our public school at length,
aud. as he seems to have completed his ar
gument, I would like the lilerty of a few re
marks on this important topic.
Your correspondent D. E. H. takes the
position that. Wcause our public schools give
no positive instructions in "religion," thev
are consequently "godless," "immoral" and I
pagan." I n proof of t his posi tion he brings j
to bear a great deal of rhetoric and declannv-
tion, -but very little in the way of facts or )
sound reasoning. A proper way to goaliout
this discussion would have been for D.K.H.
lu have informed us what he means by "re
ligion" and "religious instruction." It is I
quite impossible to guess from hislitcubra- !
tion just what his ideas of these things are. j
For example, he saw "Learning and reciting
a formula of belief isnot religion." Again,
he is opposed to "Bible reading and prayer" i
in the school. He says of this practice that !
"It is a violence offered to very many con
sciences, as well as an inconsistency." Now,
if we are not to teach a creed or "formula of
belief," nor read the Bible, nor pray, in the
public schools, I know of some people who
are a little curious to learn how we are to
teach this great disideratnm "religion." He
scarcely throws any light ou the subject by
informing us that lie doe "not want school
teachers to take the place of other religious
instructors." To uiy mind, religion divest
ed of the peculiarities of "a formula of le- 1
lief" "Bible reading" and "praver,
something that approaches so nearly to sim
ple morality, that I can perceive no differ
ence. '
But the main charge of your correspond
ent D. E. H. ia not that they are not reli
gious but that they are "immoral" schools.
We have admitted all along that they are
not religious institutions. More than that,
we have not hesitated to say that in our
judgment they ought not to lie religious
schools We might Ik? willing to revise that
opinion' if we knew just what D.E.H. means
bvthe term "religious." But to the main
o'nestion, are they "immoral? W e think
' . a- ,...,i...ii itiim we referred
not. inaioruiei m.. - - - - - .
to the fact Of the teacher's .example, the pos-
every oay (jitcu ui
the most sacred offices of religion, is degra
ded to be a matter of mere school-room rou
tine, ami fails to make any impression on
the youthful mind. Very truly,

Death or Hhothkr Lkwis. On Wed
nesday night, 14th inst., at. the Franciscan
Monastery, Brother Lewis, a professed reii-
geuso for twenty years, departed this life, i
aged aliout CO years. On Friday mornins i
High Mass was celebrated by Bev. Daniel 1
Devlin, of the College, and after Massa pro
cession, formed of the students Brothers '.
and clergy, ringing that plaintive chant, the j
Misem-e, followed the remains to the ceme- '
tery, where Bev. Father Bush, pastor of Ix i
retto, performed the obsequies, in which !
Kevs. Dan'l Devlin aud U.S. Bowcn assisted, i
To a contemplati ve mind the grave final !
resting-place of all mortality is a subject,
for profound meditation, mid in connection j
with it a thought will arise, and that is that i
i.roi ners ami i-tcrs oi religious communi
ties have chosen "tho better part."
I conclude by quoting one verse from
"Cray's Elegy the last line modified:
"Beneath those ru-jred elms, that yew-tree's
shade.
Where heaves the turf in many a mould'ring
heap. Each in his narrow cell forever hud.
The sainted Brothers of Loretto sleep."

To Messrs. Pittock & Nevin, if the
Pittsburgh Leader, we are under obligations
for a copy of the "Leader Almanac: for 1874,"
;i work which is replete with all tin; useful
information pertaining to such publications,
besides a great deal of matter of local and
general interest. If we could only tlo some
thing now to merit a daily exchanges from
that interesting and ably conducted journal,
the Leader aforesaid, we wouhl rest eoutent.
It is eurrently reported and very gener- .
ally lielieved iu this community, that My- I
. m &. Llovd not only keep the largest and
is , best stocked dry goods and grocery store in ,
Khensburg, but that they sell every article :
it is possible t reduce the price ou a little '
cheap-r than they can lie bought elsewhere. '
Thev don't make much noise about their
nbilitv to do this or that, but when it comes ,
t strlllrg cheap goods they are airrays in.
