town to the Maskerade. I corn. I went
tu the ball, and it wus good. I couldn't
portend tu tell you all how good it
lukod. Sufis it to sa thare wus a lot
uv the purtiest gurls thare, Brest up in
the purtiest kalikers I ever seed, and
[bay Lame from all the world. The
krags uv Skotland sent its luvly lass;
the dykes uv Jarminy its red cheeked
musickshuns; sunny Frans its butitul
flour gurl; burnin Araby its brite eyed
darter; an Yanke land its swete an
joyous fcmails; while at the same time
the old lady left her nittin ; the soldier
femail her kamp fire ; the biddy her
unwesht dishes; to mingle with wat.
Heaven gave, Night and Mornin, be
sides etsetry, etsetry. Then thare wus
fellers from every plate in the world,
lukin butifuly sublime, and sum from
the tether world with the damp grave
cloths—ugh Isa twos good, 0, twos
grand; farey laud is no tuchen what
ever, or never wog, no tuchen what- '
ever. But alas that good fun must
pay its skore ! The next mornin befor
breckihst, a man gave me a paper re
kwestin me tu step up tu his offis. As
he insisted it was important I went.
Thare I found about a string ov peo

thot maybe the ollis \Ng:Li dbalin out '

INltibbe thay ware watin than fur

gest that waz it, fur thay lookt so fun

calmly and quietly as if resigned to
ilium fate; sum looked wild like, thare

stood on end so much that than) hats

loose at both ends, and talked so fast
that I that thare teeth wad resine
thhre posishuns without further sere

sighs that tells ov a troubled hart. I
asked wat was rong. Sum buddy told

desperate, an seein a door open, I shot
in; a feller within shot out the back
door, mutterin sumthin about, "not at

a kloset, peeped out, saw a kuple of fe.
mail heads peepin in the back door as

set me down and wept fur joy, yes

The l'estistal at Alexandria on Thurs
day evening last was a brilliant affair.
We were there to see and we must say
we never enjoyed ourselves better.
The supper table was well supplied
with everything good, and the "extras"
were numerous and drew into the
Treasury numerous dimes. The "Cler
gyman's Chair" was not voted fin., the
Clergymen of the place declining to re
ceive it in that way. The "Editor's
Chair" was voted for ; and the contest
was made almost exclusively political
upon the high pressure principle, be
tween the JouTital and .Monitor—tlio
declining to enter the contest as
a right or wrong party organ. The
whole amount voted on the chair was
about Sin, one sixth of what it should
have been—but sink or swim, politics
roust always be uppermost with politi
cians. 'rho Monitor had the most
money in, but a difficulty arose when
its friends withdrew their last vote,
s'3B2, and the chair was then given the
Journal office. We have not learned
the amount taken in by the Associa
tion but we suppose the Festival paid.
The votes we received were principally
voted by the ladies, and they voted for
us as the hest looking editor, and ou
that question the vote for us was unan
imous. Glory enough for one day.

ticipatcd. The various methods of
teaching the subject in our Common
Schools was then discussed, by the
members of the Association. A. H.
Kauffman said much valuable time
was frequently lost to pupils by being
urged on in this study, before the rea
soning faculties are sufficiently devel
oped by nature to comprehend the
subject. He regarded the use of rules
an obstacle in the way of success. Mr.
Baker favored the use of rules. He
thought the evil resulted from the fact
that rules are in general not properly
explained to the pupil. 1). F. Tussey
said pupils could he interested in the
subject at a very early age. Ho drill-.
ed a class, illustrating his method of
teaching beginners the elementary op
erations of counting and addition.- He
thought rules might possibly be of
some advantage, yet believed more
thorough scholars would be made if
they were dispensed with. After sonic
further remarks by Messrs. S. P. Mc-
Divitt and B. M. McNeal, the discus
sion was closed. A piece of music was
sting.
Au exercise in English Grammar was
conducted by A. 11. Kauffman, and the
methods of teaching it discussed by
the members present. Mr. Kauffman
thought the importance of Grammar,
both as a practical art and means of
mental discipline was not fully appreci
ated. He would not discard parsing
but would precede it by analysis. No
teacher who follows the order of the
text hook will succeed well with young
pupils. .I.le favored the object moth.
od of teaching definitions. These
views were generally concurred in by
the members present. After a piece
of vocal music the Association on mo
tion adjourned.
Ecening Session. The exercises
were opened with Music. An able
and highly instructive essay on Edu
cation was read by Mr. S. P. McDiv

was then discussed. A. H. Kauffman,
in opening the discussion, adverted
briefly to the circumstances which ren
der school government so difficult.
such as poor' school houses, want of
proper pa ron tal co-operation and more
general interest in the cause of educa
tion. He favored mild measures and
more attention to moral instruction in
our schools. He could not succeed
without the rod, yet could not help but
regard it as a means of doubtful pro
priety far seen ring and maintaining or
der in the school-room. Mr. D. F.
Tussey said he could not regard the
rod an improper means of securing
obedience when used in the proper
spirit and manner. There seems to
be something in human nature inclined
to resist authority however mildly,
justly and reasonably it may be exer
cised. His views were ably supported
by quotations from the Proverbs of
Solomon. Messrs. 'McNeal, Baker and
McDivitt also spoke in favor of the rod,
though as a last resort, after milder
means had proved futile.
Mr. McNeal, chairman of the busi
ness committee, read the following re
port which was adopted. Place of

The roof of Mr. Maize's house, on
Railroad street, took tiro on Wednes
day, from sparks from a locomotive.—
The flames were extinguished before
the high wind, then prevailing, had
sot the block in flames. This is the
fourth or fifth time this roof has igni 7
ted from the same cause. We are
pleased to understand that the house
will be torn down in the spring. We
hope so, as it is not pleasant to bo
seared so badly, and worse, for Mr. M.

—One of the most important fea

MOUNT UNION, Feb. 1, 1867
Editors of Tlic Times:
I write to advise you, that the Ala i
ropolitan Railroad, destined to unite
the National Capital with the interior
Railways of New York and Pennsyl
vania, has been completed from Wash
ington City, via Point of Rocks, to
Hagerstown, idd.; and I have been de
tailed to assist in locating the link from
Hagerstown, via the Conococheague
anAughwick Creek route, to inter
sect the Pennsylvania Railroad at Mt.
Union. When this is completed, the
distance by rail from Washington City,
via Pittsburg, to Chieago,will be eighty
miles less than via Baltimore City, and
trade and travel from the North-West
and South-West to the Capital of the
Union greatly advantaged both in time
and expense.
A National Railroad is wanted from
Washington City to the Lake Regions.
This great work will cross the Balti
more and Ohio, Cumberland - Valley,
Southern Pennsylvania, Pennsylvania
Contra!, Philadelphia and Erie, and
New York Railways; openin g up ashore
route between the West Indies, the
Southern Atlantic States and the North
West, by which the products of these
varied regions may be more rapidly
and cheaply exchanged than via New
York Canal - and Pt•titways; and destin
ed to make Washington Cit.j. George
town and Alexandria important points
of commerce.
A National Railway Convention, will
be held in Hagerstown, in April, 1567,
to ‘vhich the citizens of this section
should send delegates capable of fur
thering the interests of your people in
this National wo-k.

Important to Dead Heade
The remarks of the Altoona Tribune
on "Free Passes on Railroads" may
furnish not a little consolation to de
ticket-ed "Dead lleads," especially
When it says:
"That the free pass system will ever
be entirely abolished, is doubtful; in
fact, out of the question. .The charge
that they are corrupting to the recip
ients rimy, to a certain extent, be true;
but are not favors of other kinds, ex
tended daily, in political and business
transactions, equally corrupting? llow
are these sources of corruption to be
purified and why not include all, when
an attempt at purification is made."
