It is said that the Kemble Furnaces have so
much iron on hand that our friend Lander has
a mind to take the contract, for the construc

may be a false report, however.

If some of our philanthropists could only
be induced to turn their attention to the hea

of the heathen of New Zealand, they might do
something practical. We have heard these
little savages use more horrible oaths, in five
minutes, than the real savages would in a
lifetime.
Henry Davis, Sr., of West tow nship, raised
427 bushels of ears of corn on two and a half
acres of land, this last season. Mr. Davis had
prepared the ground for tobacco, and failing
in having it planted in time he put it io corn,
with the above result. This shows what can
be done on a small piece of ground if it is
well farmed.
The editor of the Times is an excellent dra
matic and musical critic. He knows just how
load an alto should sing in order to insure
harmony, and prevent the music from "grating
harshly on a sensitive musical ear," (the edi
tor's ear), and he knows to a t the size of the
boot worn by "the professor." lie should have
said further that harmony in music depends
upon regularity of sound waves, that octaves
are measured by doubles, and that a boot for
beating time should be either a number two ,
four, eight or sixteen. No intermediate 1.1111-
berg or fractions will answer.
Our friend Fisher, local of the Bedford Ga
Bette, visited Huntingdon last week, and we
were really glad to meet him. He has been
abusing us like a Turk, for the longest time,
but then we suppose it was all in a Pickwick
ian sense, and we most heartily forgive him.
It's all right, John. Our string is always out.
Drop in whenever you come to town.
A correspondent of the Mount Union Times
takes the editor to task for not standing up
through a half hour prayer, where aged ladies
could stand it out. If they had been as di
minutive as the editor of the Times, it is not
likely they could hare stood it out either.
That correspondent t.hould take a man of his
own size when be wants to poke fun.
A neat tinted paper pamphlet, entitled "The
Crowning Gift of Heaven," by John W. Welch,
esq., "Bard of the Mountain," will he issued
from the JOURNAL. Job Office this week. It is
a recital of the prominent scenes in the life of
our Savior in most excellent verse. Mr. Welch
has fine poetical talents and should be en
couraged by our people. We hope that his
pamphlet will meet with ready sale.
One of the most important cases down for
trial, this week, is the Guss• Wharton slander
suit. The defence has subpcencd a large num
ber of witnesses to sustain the charges made
and to show up the Plaintiff's chitracter.
Satan's summons in the "Vision of Judgment,"
was not ;sore numerously responded to. The
impression is that the suit will be abandoned
to avoid further exposure.
The editor of the Itount Union Times ought
to get a dictionary or else employ a compe
tent proof reader. He writes Hallowe'en
"Holloweve," and he raves about ' , soft sow
der" as if there were such a thing. His knowl
edge of English Grammar, too, is refreshing.
Witness the following from last week's Times:
"It wasns't their carts." And the way he
slings in capital letters would shame an
eighteenth century divine.
Temp. Taylor and Will Bare, when out
hunting on Friday last, came uron a nest of
bears within a mile of Shade Gap. There
were four bears, two old and two young ones.
The said Nimrods did not stop to parley with
the bears. It is reported that Will didn't stop
running until he reached Shade Gap, but we
regard this as a terrible lie. A party was to go
from Orbisonia on Sunday to find the bears.
In an article, copied in the last JOURNAL,
from the New York Times, giving the banks

New York, the Philipsburg Banking Company,

2. Inasmuch as I own a large amount of real

INDIVIDUAL LIABILITY OF THE STOCK
HOLDERS OF THE FIRST NATIONAL BANE.-The
question has been frequently asked, what se
curity have depositors for money in National
Banks, and the failure of several private Banks
in the cities and country has created no little
alarm among people in the country as to finan
cial matters. According to the National Bank
ing Law, under which the First National Bank ,
of Huntingdon is chartered, the stockholders
deposited in the Treasury of the United States,
at Washington, Government Bonds to amount
$150,000; (now worth considerably more.)
and as au additional security the law pro
vides that the Stockholders shall be liable in
dividually for as much more, making the
whole security for the liabilities of that Bank,
$300,000. But in addition to all that, on the
Ist of October, when people became alarmed
about Banks generally, the Stockholders of
the First National Bank of Huntingdon, sign
ed au obligation, which has been exhibited to
us, and made public, from which we make an
extract, showing that all their private proper
ty is pledged as security to depositors :
" So entirely satisfied are we with the sol
"vency of this Bank, that we, Stock-holders
" of the First National Bank of Huntingdon,
" in addition to the assets of the Bank, which
" we consider of themselves ample to meet
" all our liabilities, in addition to the liabili
ty imposed upon the Stock holders by the
"National Bank Law of an amount equal to
" the stock held by nein, viz, $150,000, do
" hereby guarantee to all persons having de
" posits in this Bank, their payments in full,
"and for their payment, we will each hold
"ourselves individually liable, to the full ex
" tent of our private property.

THE RIGHT OF TEACHERS To INFLICT
CORPORAL PUNISUMENT.—BeIow will be found
extracts from the charge of Judge Dean in the
case of the Commonwealth vs. E. 0. Haberac
ker, charged with assault and battery on one
of his pupils in a Tyrone school. The atten
tion of both parents and teachers is directed to
the law on the subject as here elucidated t
It does not follow, in all cases, that because
there has been a beating, that, therefore, it is
unlawful. Though pain and injury has been
inflicted, beating, to he battery, in the case of
a teacher charged with assault and battery,
must go further than the mere striking before
a criminal prosecution can be sustained.
. Criminality. where a master beats his ser
yont, a parent his child, or a teacher his pupil ,
depends, front the relation of the parties, not
on the beating alone, but upon the degree of
force used, and the cause of the beating.
In self-defense a man cannot disable his as
sailant and then out of revenge beat him. The
law only justifies him in using as much force
as is necessary to repel the assailant ; it allows
him nothing for retaliation or revenge. If the
assaulted party goes beyond the point of self
defense, the punishment becomes unlaw
ful, and therefore a battery.
So a master may inflict punishment upon
his apprentice, a parent upon his child, and a
teacher upon his pupil without necessarily be
ing guilty of battery ; while in the case of
those not sustaining this relation of master and
apprentice, or parent and child, or teacher,
and pupil, the mere fact of a beating being
shown by the commonwealth, time law presumes
that it was unlawful, and therefore a battery ;
yet no presumption arises in either of the cases
we hare mentioned ; the presumption is, where
it is shown that a master has beaten his ap
prentice, a parent his child, or a teacher his
pupil, that the beating was lawful and there
fore not a battery—that it was such a beating
as was necessary under the circumstances.
It is incumbent upon the commonwealth in
a case of this kind, after havilg shown the
beating, to go further, and, by proof; satisfy
the jury that the beating went beyond a rea
sonable point ; that it was unlawful. The pa
rent, for the good of his child, to reform him,
may inflict upon him such punishment as may
be reasonable and necessary to effect that
end. To secure attention to Isis studies or to
maintain order in the school room, the teach.
er may do just what the parent may bare done
at home; he is lots parentis for the time being
—occupies the same relation towards the
child as the parent does at home. During
school hours lie has all the authority of the
parent, and is held to no stricter accountabil
ity.
Neither the parent nor the teacher however,
can beat the child to gratify a cruel or re
vengeful disposition, no matter from what
cause revenge may have arisen. The punish
ment must have for its object the reformation
or good of the child, or the maintenance of
good government in the family or in the
school room. If. from dislike of the child,
spite, anger, the beating is inflicted, whether
slight or aevere, the beating is a battery and
punishable as such.
So, if the punishment he :met, or unreason
able, out of proportion to the nature of the of
fense committed it is a battery.
The teacher is responsible only for a mali
cious beating. If, from an error of judgment
on the part of the teacher, he unintentionally
goes beyond the bounds of moderation in the
punishment ; or if, from facts afterward dis
covered, it appears that the child committed
no offense whatever worthy of punishment ;
still, if the teacher, at the time he inflicted the
punishment. did not mean to be unusually se
vere, or believed in the guilt of the child he
would not be responsible. For the time being
he is judge, necessarily must be judge, jury
and executioner; he must here, determine,
and punish or execute, and he is no more re
sponsible, criminally, for unintentional errors,
errors of judgement, than you or we are re
sponsible for errors of judgment here in the
court room.

Any teacher who is so forgetful of the duties
of his high calling, or the far-reaching conse
quences of his acts, as to maliciously or cruel
ly beat a pupil, should, without filtering or
without hesitation on your part, be convicted
of assault and battery. On the other hand, it
is of the greatest moment that our teachers is
our public schools be encouraged and sustain
ed in every proper exercise of their authority.
The very existence of these institutions de
pends on sustaining the teacher in his author
ity, when properly exercised in ,he school
room. If the teacher be stripped of his author
ity to enforce attention, or to prohibit disor
der in the school room, by unfounded and
trivial prosecutions, the end of the system for
good is very near at hand ; rebellion and con
tumacy on the part of the pupils will become
chronic; the teacher, instead of training youth
will be engaged in a continual contest to main
tain his authority.

VOICE OF THE PEOPLE.
The Religions Amendment of the Con•
stitution.
Ma. EDITOR :—Absence from home and
pressing duties while at home, have caused
considerable delay in fulfilling my promise,
and now, as briefly as possible, I will describe
the measure referred to in the above caption.
Those who are advocating this measure, are
Christian men, they believe that Christianity
is the only true religion, and that national, as
well as individual safety and prosperity de
perd on obedience to Christ. They desire
that this religion, with all its heaven born
privileges and blessings—its freedom and free
institutions—shall be preserved and perpetua
ted in this country, that our government shall
be a Christian government, our laws, Christian
laws, and our people, a Christian people.
They have inscribed ou their banner the ac
knowledgment of Christianity in our national
constitution—but this, beside being an act-of
homage to Almighty God,-and a deserved re
cognition of Him for His great goodness to us
as a nation, is a means to an end. With this
hare acknowledgment of religion, without its
reality and power among the people, they will
not be satisfied; but they do think this ac
knowledgment necessary, and very many of
the best heads and hearts in our country agree
with them.
The real question at issue is, shall Christi-.
salty be maintained in our land, or shah it be
rooted out? Shall this he EmannePs land, oe
shall it be given up to infidelity and atheism?
This issue has been raised by the disciples of
Christ. , They fled to this country to find an
asylum from persecution, where they could
worship God, according to His Word, and
they took possession of this country in His
name; He was acknowledged by the Pilgrims
in the cabin of the May Flower, in that instru
ment ivhiCh . they adopted for their govern
ment, after they would land, and in the pray
ers that as:mnded from that sterile rock it was
dedicated to Him. Our fathers believed in
and fully acknowledged this religion,the al tars
at which they worshipped were Christian al
tars, and they fought their battles in the name
of the Lord of hosts; and our civilization and
laws are iTiristian. So it lifts been, and so
the friends of this measure desire it to contin
ue. But this issue has been raised by the en
emies of Christianity, who are not willing that
the vows of the pilgrim forefathers shall be
kept, and their purpose is that Christianity
shall be outlawed and banishedfrom our land.
For a number of years this anti-Christian par
ty, consisting mostly of atheists, infidels, jews,
rationalists and spiritualists, have been com
bining and organizing, and preparing for more
decided opposition to Christianity. That all
your readers may see the demands of this
party I will here insert their platform as giv
en in The Index, the organ of the party, pub
lished in Toledo, Ohio
THE DEMANDS OF LIEESALISM.
1. We demand that churches and other ec
clesiastical property shall no longer be ex
erupted from just taxation.
2. We demand that the employment of chap
lains in Congress, in State Legislatures, in the
navy and militia, and in prisons, asylums, and
all other institutions supported by public
money, shall be discontinued.
3. We demand that all pzblic appropriations
for sectarian educational and charitable in
stitutions shall cease.
4. We demand that all religions services now
sustained by the government shall be abolish
ed; and especially that the use of the Bible
in the public schools, wir•ther ostensibly as a
text-book or avowedly as a book of religious
worship, shall be prohibited.
5. We demand that the appointment by the
President of the United States or by the Gov
ernors of the various States, of all religious
festivals and feasts shall wholly cease.
6. We demand that the judicial oath in the
courts and in all other departments of the
Government shall be abolished, and that sim
ple affirmation, under pains and penalties of
perjury, shall be established in its stead.
7. We demand that all laws directly or in
directly enforcing the observance of Sunday
as the Sabbath shall be repealed.
8. We demand that all laws looking to the
enforcement of "Christian" morality shall be
abrogated, and that all laws shall he conform
ed to the requirements of natural morality,
equal rights and impartial liberty.
9. We demand that not wily in the Consti
tution of the United States and of the sever
al States, but also in the practical adminis
tration of the same, no privilege or advantage
shall be conceded to Christianity or any oth
er special religion ; that our entire political
system shall be founded and administered on
a purely secular basis ; and that whatever
changes shall prove necessary to this end shall
be consistently, unflinchingly and promptly
made.
In some of these demands, the Papists earn
estly co-operate with the Liberals, and to
gether they constitute a powerful party.
Many Leagues have been organized in differ
ent parts of our country for the purpose of
urging these demands, and under their aus
pices, a remonstrance against any recognition
of Gad in our Constitution signed by nearly
35,000 was sent to Congress last winter. The
object in view is the overthrow of Christiani
ty. The key-note of this party was struck in
the annual convention of the National Asso
ciation of Spiritualists, in Chicago, some two
months ago, when one of the members an
nounced that he was "dltermined on the des
truction of the Christian religion," and an
other of the members, a male delegate, pro
posed that instead of Spiritualists they would
take the name of "Anti-Christians," and his
proposition was received with "great ap
plause." And in a resolution, they recom
mended the organization of Liberal Leagues
throughout' the United States for the purpose
of opposing any recognition of Christianity
in our Constitution.
A violent crusade has been made for years,
and continues to be made, by this liberal li
centious class against our Sabbath, the Bible
in onr Schools, our laws regulating marriages
and the safety of these stays, and safeguards
of religion in our land is endangered. Many
places the Sabbath is openly violated with
impunity, especially in our cities, public li
braries are being opened, and music introdu
ced into parks, street cars are run, and boats
make their pleasure trips, and places of sin
ful amusement are frequently opened. In
f.let our Sabbath is being fast turned into a
mere holiday, and Congress itself has on sev
oral occasions held sessions on the Lord's day.
And the Bible has already been discarded from
some of our common schools, and in Ohio it
has been officially ruled out by the decision
of the Supreme Court in the case appealed
from Cincinnati.
This issue, I repeat, has not been raised by
Christians, but by the enemies of Christianity,
who are not willing that our Christian laws
and institutions shall remain, but desires that
our beautiful heritage shall be given up to
the cold and deathly embrace of rationalism
and infidelity. And this issue must be met and
that soon and boldly, or future generations
will bitterly reproach us for w;7l:edly loosing,
the richest legacy ever given to any nation on
earth.'
As to the proper course to be pursued in
defending our religion from the enzoachments
of its enemies, all would agree that the Bible
should be circulated, the gospel should be
preached, and everything done that can be,to
bring sinners to Christ, and increlse the pow
er and efficiency of the chur•b. But it is be
lieved that something additional should be
done to defend our public religious institu
tions, as marriage, the oath, the Sabbath,
from the attacks of the enemy. As these arc
established by law, and can be maintained on
ly by law, there should be constitutional safe
guard thrown around them, so that they could
not be set aside by infidel judges or even by
salary-grabbing law-makers. Is it not obvious
to every one, that in a government like ours,
there must e in the constitution authority
for all laws enacted under it? And laws are
sometimes decided void simply because they
are not within the limits of the constitution.
And so it is and must be with laws that re
spect religion in the State; they must be sanc
tioned by the constitution, or they will sooner
or later be declared null and void. So it was
in the late decision of the Supreme Court in
Ohio. They decided against the use of the
Bible iu the common schools, on the plea that
it was not sanctioned by the constitution of
that state. And when an appeal to come be
fore the Supreme Court of the United States,
involving the constitutionality of the laws,
respecting the employment of chaplains in
congress, and in the army and navy, these
lams could be sustained only by showing that
there is authority for them in the constitution.
This same want is now felt by some on behalf
of the common school system, which is so bit
terly assailed by the Roman Catholic priest
hood. In a large meeting held October 28th,
in the Cooper Institute,
New York, on be
half of the common schools occasioned by this
opposition, the following resolution was adopt
ed.
Resolse , l, In order that our common school
system may he national, and may be placed
beyond the reach of its enemies, we are in fa
vor of incorporating its generel principles in
the Constitution of the United States ; so far
as to secure education to the youth of the
whole country.
Yes, if this was done, it would place it be
yond the reach of any local opposition. And
this is what is needed for the Christian insti
tutions of our country, incorporate their prin
ciples in the Constitution of the United States,
and this would place them beyond the reach
of their enemies.
But it is manifest that there is not iu our
national constitution any plain recognition of
God or of the Christian religion. His name
is not found in it, not even in the oath that is
administered to time President When he takes
his seat. The enemies boast of this, and the
friends of Christ, have with shame, to admit
it. And what the advocates of this measure
want, and who that calls himself a Christian
could be satisfied with less? is to have this
want supplied, to have God and his law plainly
acknowledged in our highest Charter, and all
brought to adore and serve him.

Me. EDITOR :—llaving had occasion to attend
the meeting that has been in progress ut Ma
pleton for some weeks, I deem it advisable to
notice a few facts in regard io the behavior of
some of the Church goers of that noted place.
I first will note the singing, whic:i was charm
ing. It seemed as though each one had a
tune of their own and sung to suit themselves,
and not the occasion. I noticed that there
was considerable benzine in existence, from
the appearance of some of the young men of
the place, who attend the meeting for no other
purpose than to misbehave and make fun of
those who arc trying to do goof. The ladies,
too, form a very important part of the congre
gation as regards misbehavior. I think they
are equal to the young men. I noticed sev
eral who came into the Church swinging their
heads and body as though they were about to
prepare for an action which would require
their utmost power. They would bustle op to
a seat, turn half way around to see if any one
was watching them, then gather their dress
up behind, give their bustle a shake, (so the
young men could hear the paper rattle,) and
sit down and commence to adjust their curls
and other fixings, which took the most of
their time during the service. I noticed one
yowls; lady in particular that sat on one side
of the middle;row of pews, but before the
services were over she was on the other side
having crept under the dividing strip between
the two sides. As regards the amount of
good being done I believe there has been four
or five convertious up to this time. Ido not
wish to throw any insinuations whatever at
the pastor in charge, for I believe that he is
doing all that is in his power for the conver
sion of sinners. Yours,

There were fewer disturbing elements in the local
money market to-day than for several days past,
the announcement of a scrip dividend by the Penn
sylvania railroad having quieted things down
considerably, and there is a more settled tone in
the entire market in consequence. • For business
and merchantile purposes the demand for funds is
only moderate, the season being over and trade
universally depress, restricting the requirements
of borrowers within narrow limits. The rates aro
for the most part nominal, lost there is a slight
easing up to-day.
