"Snow YOUR TICKETS."—The Court of
Appeals of New York has lately decided
that a railroad passenger is bound to show
his ticket to the conductor when requested,
even if the conductor knew that the party
had paid his fare. Refusing to comply with
such request, forfeits his right to be carried
on the road.
The Fourth of March
The nest 4th of March Democratic State
Convention will have two important nomina
tions to make--Auditor General and Survey
or General—and strange to say, there has
not as yet been a man named for either office.
Heretofore there has been no scarcity of ap
plicants for vacancies. Perhaps those who
would gladly accept of the offices, are fearful
of the platform the Convention may erect for
them to stand upon. A nomination now-a
days is not as good as an election. Let the
next Democratic State Convention act wisely,
and its nominees can be successful.
THE GOLD FEVER AT THE WEST.—The New
York Journal of Commerce learns from a
gentleman "of Minnesota, that the gold fever
is raging throughout the West, and that hun
dreds of young men are preparing to . start
early in the Spring for the newly discovered
mines of Western Kansas. In many of the
large towns, companies of 50 to 100 are organ
izing, while individuals are hoping to realize
fortunes by fitting out transportation trains,
to convey provisions to the "diggings," and
passengers at a certain price per bead. It is
expected that large profits will be made on
the provisions, which will command the
highest prices at the mines.
Pennsylvania Legislature.
[Correspondence of The Globe.)
MoNn.ty,January 24. SENATE.---Very little
business was done to-day, and that transac
ted was generally of a local character.—
HonsE.—The Speaker announced his appoint
ment of a committee to examine the affairs
of the Shamokin Bank. Petitions were pre
sented praying the erection of the proposed
new counties of Pine and Marion, and for an
additional appropriation for the erection of a
monument to the memory of the Pennsylva
nians who lost their lives in the war with
Mexico. Mr. Lawrence, of Washington, of
fered a joint resolution to pay Win. E. Fra
zier, the recently elected. Canal Commis
sioner, for his official services. Mr. F's. po
litical success has been a very brief one, and
his official position one of brief honor and
meagre profit. Mr. Boyer, of Clearfield, read
a bill creating a new Judicial district, to he
composed of the counties of Clearfield, Jef
ferson, Elk and Forest, and to be numbered
the 26th. •
TUESDAY. SENATE.—Gen. Duff Green, of
national reputation, has been here for two or
three weeks, seeking the incorporation of a
mammoth corporation, to be called the
" American Improvement and Loan Associa
tion," and had to-day a memorial presented
on the subject, in which the objects of the
corporation are explained. The bill abroga
ting
. the contract with R. J. Haldeman, for
the publication of the "Legislative Record,"
which has been rushed through the House,
came up, and after some discussion was de
feated on second reading by a vote of 15 to
11. A bill was passed, authorizing the re
payment to the West Chester Gas Company,
tax levied upon their works. The two Houses
met in joint convention for the purpose of al
lotting the State printing. Seven bids were
received. A. Boyd Hamilton, the present
printer, being the lowest bidder, the printing
was given to him, when his bonds were pre
sented and approved.
WEDNESDAY. SENATE.-13ills were repor
ted.: to incorporate the American Improve
ment and Loan Company ; to authorize the
School Directors of Bedford. borough to bor
row money ; a supplement to the act regula
ting the schools of this Commonwealth. A
joint resolution was passed, authorizing the
payment td Theophilus Snyder, Sergeant -at-
Arms, his bill for serving writs of election in
the 13th Senatorial district. Mr. Schell read
in place, "A further supplement to an act to
incorporate the Duncannon, Landisburg, and
Broad Top Railroad Company, and changing
the name thereof, to the Pennsylvania Pacific
Railroad Company." A resolution was
adopted, authorizing the printing for the use
of the Senate, of 500 copies of the proceed
ings of the State Agricultural Society.—
HousE.—An ineffectual attempt was made to
rescind the resolution preventing C. M. Don
avan from coming upon the floor of the
House. A bill was reported, entitled a "Sup
plement to the act to protect the public in
the full benefit and enjoyment of the works
constructed for the purposes of inland navi
gation."
Tuultsteiv. SENSTE.--13ills were reported:
relative to the distribution of the final report
of the Geological survey of the State ; relative
to the action of replevin in cases of distress for
rent ; relative to evidence ; relative to testa
mentary trustees; to prevent disturbances at
publiemeetings. HonsE.--Petitions presented:
memorial from the Kennet quakers for the pas
sage of a law preventing the rendition of fu
gitive slaves; for an additional appropriation
to the erection of the Mexican monument
for the new county of Pine; from several
counties, praying that the office of Sealer of
Weights and Measures for those counties
should be abolished ; for alterations in the
liquor and school laws ; for the abolition of
the County Superintendency.
FRIDAY. SENATE.—BiIIs reported ; a sup
plement to an act relative to roads and high
ways ; relative to incorporated cemeteries ; to
prevent the destruction of trout in Blair
county ; regulating the weight of coal. A
Long discussion was indulged in by Senators
interested in the incorporation of the West
ern Market company of Philadelphia, on the
motion to reconsider the vote on the final
passage of the bill. The Senate refused to
reconsider. A bill relative to executors and
administrators passed finally. The Select
Committee on the subject of the publication
of a Daily Legislative Record, made a report
which was accompanied by a resolution, au
thorizing the same committee to contract
with Geo. Bergner & Co., for the publication
of such a Record. This being entirely a po
litical movement—gotten up by the Repub
licans—having no other object in view and
prompted:by no other motive, than to favor a
political friend, it was opposed by the Demo
crats on the ground that there is now in force
a contract with another party for the same
purpose, and that in the event of the consum
mation of this movement, the House would be
supplied with two Records—thus entailing
an unnecessary expense of several thousand
dollars. The matter was discussed up to the
hour of adjournment.
SATuanay. SENATE.—A bill was reported
supplemental to the general road and bridge
law. Bills read: relative to proceedings in the
Supreme Court ; relative to partnerships ;
supplemental to the general act regulating
boroughs; relative to the sale and conveyance
of real estate. A bill incorporating " the
Presbyterian Church at Harrisburg," elicited
considerable discussion. A year ago, the
Presbyterian Church of this place was de
troyed by fire. After the destruction of the
place of worship, the two elements in the
congregation, old and new school disagreed
and each branch of the society; .resolved to
erect an edifice for themselves, and according
ly two buildings are now in progress of con
struction. This bill refers to the old school
wing who claim to be the original stock, and
it was passed. Housre—Bills reported : de
claring dogs personal property ; to prevent
the intermarriage of the white and black ra
ces. Bills in place : relative to state taxes ;
supplement to an act to protect fruit and pun
ish trespass ; relative to the sale of medicine;
to protect the wages of labor; relative to re
cording of deeds ; relative to _cemetery com
panies ; authorizing the election of collectors
of State and County taxes, &c. The resolu
tion authorizing the publication of a Record
for. the use of the House was agreed to.

EDUCATIONAL
BY THE COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT,
The course of study, pursued in many of
our Common Schools, has been materially
changed, during the last two years; as will
be noticed in the " Extracts from my note
book." The new course of study, and new
system of instruction will not be entirely suc
cessful at the first ; for teachers must have
time to mature them ; scholars must have a
little time to become familiar with such im
portant changes. Parents too are apt to
entertain doubts and prejudices against new
innovations; a. i their free expression of pre
judices to the scholars arc sufficient to render
the scho.)l management, at this time, an ar
duous task, for the teacher.
With these hinderances, our schools have
advanced—in the districts reported below—
fifty per cent. from last year. Some partial
failures will occur; generally occasioned by
outside influences : A few teachers fail to
interest a school with any course of study.—
These falures are detrimental to the whole
system ; as they add strength to already exist
ing prejudices.

ABB. TABLE.
BLACKWOOD FOR, JANUARY.--LEONARD SCOTT
& CO., NEW YORK.
"Maga" opens the new year with a most
attractive number. Bulwer's master-piece,
"What will he do with it 1" is brought to a
satisfactory conclusion. Darrell and Lady
Mountfort, Lionel and Sophy, are all made
happy, and the intense anxiety of the millions
who have read this famous novel is relieved.
We trust Sir Edward, who, of late years,
gives all his literary labors to the public
through the pages of "Blackwood," has some
thing new in store for us as good as the in
imitable work be has just completed. "Bur
ma, and the Burmese" is a review of "A Nar
ative of the Mission of the Governor-General
of India to the Court of Ava," with notices
of the country, government, and people. "A
Cruise in Japanese Waters" is continued
with unflagging interest, giving us a still
further insight into the manners, morals, cus
toms, etc., of the people of Japan, with some
humerous remarks on their apparent, not real,
indelicacy in exposing their persons at the
public baths, in that delicious climate. "flow
to Buil Peas" is not, as its title indicates, a
dissertation on modern cookery, but one of
the most witty, pointed articles on the folly
of making ourselves miserable that was ever
penned. "An Angling Saunter" claims to be
of interest to the general reader as well as to
anglers, and is certainly a very readable ar
ticle. "Popular Literature and the Peri
odical Press" is amply handled. It aims to
show that the talent of the , realm is leaving
other professions, and concentrating in the
press, and especially the periodical press of
Great Britain ; to which fact, more than to
any other cause, may be attributed the de
cline of the drama, and the lessening interest
felt for oral d isco u rseovli ether from the lec
ture-room or the pulpit. The article is wor
thy a careful persual. "The Royal Procla
matron to India" closes the list of articles in
this interesting number, gives us the Tory
view of the present condition and prospects
of that vast country, as compared with what
they were under the rule of the famous "East
India Company."
We are pleased to notice that Blackwood,
this month, is printed on much better paper
than we have ever before seen it, and the
publishers assure us that this improvement
will continue.

PATITER DAUGUTER, a Portraiture from
Real Life, by Fredrika Bremer, com
plete in one large volume, neatly hound
in cloth, $1.25; just published, and for
sale at Lewis' Book Store.
The Philadelphia Press, of Saturday, thus
speaks of this new book :—" The work allu
ded to, " "Father and Daughter," is the lust
from the graceful and nervous pen of Miss
Bremer, and is fully equal to the best which
this talented authoress has given to the pub
lic. It abounds in touching scenes, admira,
ble for their pathos and fidelity to nature,
and a plot admirably designed, and consis
tently and naturally developed. It is not a
sensation book, gotten up fur a temporary
purpose, but a volume which will have a
welcome place in every library for years to
come. It has the elements of successful
popularity in an ethinent degree, and the
extraordinary zeal of the publishers, in
bringing it out, is fully warranted by its re
markable intrinsic merits.

The Indiana Democracy
The Indiana State Sentinel, of the 15th,
speaking of the Democratic triumph in that
State, says :
"There is a complete union of the -Demo
cratic members of the Legislature in thejoint
convention held yesterday for the election of
various State officers, and the result was a
Democratic triumph. All past differences
were practically ignored, and the Democrats
unitedly supported the Democratic nominees.
Prejudices were nobly sacrificed to secure the
harmony and maintain the integrity of the
Democratic organization. The nominees
were all what are termed anti-Lecompton
Democrats ; yet, the Lecompton Democrats
manfully and generously abided and sus
tained the nominations. We. allude to
these nominal distinctions to show the de
votion that was manifested to the cause and
to restore harmony in the ranks, not that we
recognize any such divisions in the party as
anti-Lecompton or Leconnoton Democrats.—
The complete sucess of yesterday we regard
as a pregtige of success in 1860. To secure
a Democratic triumph, then, it only requires
that past issues should be iscarded, and. in
the future recognition of the rights of every
Democrat to all the privileges and honors of
his. party.
"The successful candidates are all Demo
crats, and will be found faithfully upholding
the Democratic banner. They all possess,
too, the Jeffersonian qualifications of capaci
ty, integrity, and faithfulness to the Consti
tution. They will faithfully fulfil the various
trusts with credit to themselves and their
party, and with honor to the State. We con
gratulate the Democracy of Indiana on this
triumph over Republicanism—a sentiment
which will find a responsive echo in the heart
of every Democrat."
