The Huntingdon Journal J. A. DURBORROW, HUNTINGDON, PENN'A. --4--- APRIL 12, IS7B FRIDAY, Circulation LARGER than any other Paper in the Juniata Valley. Committee Meeting. The Republican County Committee will meet at the Court Honse, in Huntingdon, on TUESDAY, APRIL IGtb, at one o'clock, P. si., for the purpose of electing one Senatorial and two Representative Delegates to the State Convention ; and to attend to other matters of importance. A full attendance is requested. W. A. FLEMING, Chairman. R. McDIVITT, Secretary. PROFESSIONAL APPRENTICESHIPS. It must be apparent, to the most casual observer, that our leading professions are becoming entirely too much crowded. There is no longer room fur the novice and the bungler. Only those who are learned, skilled and proficient and, who are backed by good, sound discriminating judgment, can succeed. The day was when the de mand exceeded the supply and any lunk. head could enter the office of a lawyer or physician and, after a few months of in different study, launch out to impose upon his fellow men, but that day is rapidly passing and the sooner it does the better. The American people have been more out rageously swindled, in this respect, than all the civilized world besides. Take the average lawyer or physician as an illustration : He is some young man who has been raised on a farm or spent his time ti attending school until he was old enough to teach school. At the age of twenty-one he is entered to read law with some attorney, who takes little or no in terest in his pupil, and after spending a few months in a law office, where there has been little or nothing to do, except to copy a few affidavits or to write an occas• ional deed, he is ushered before a commit tee who spend an hour or so in asking ran dom questions, many of which the ques tioners would find difficulty in answering themselves, on account of rustiness, and he is declared competent to go out and im pose upon his neighbors. What does he know ? Absolutely nothing. He has had no training whatever. Everything in the practice is as foreign to him as Hebrew. His mind has had no preparation whatever outside of the little impractical reading. He knows nothing about business ; perhaps, never sold a pound of butter or calculated halls dozen partial payments in his life. He is as ignorant as an oyster. And yet this man hangs out a shingle and begins to practice law ! Great Cm3ar ! Men who find themselves in the meshes of the law suppose every one who opens an office able to help them out, and they em. ploy him. The result is he knows noth ing; he misleads them; gives them bad advice, and his clients in the end find themselves a thousand times worse off than if they hal made terms with their antago nists in the beginning. No Bar is exempt from this sort of experience. It is the case all over the country. What is said here of lawyers is equally true of physi cians. They as a rule are, if anything worse than lawyers, because it seems the; whenever a favorite son is fit for nothing else a doting father will make a physician out of him. He may figure as a physician when he would starve as a lawyer. Bat the day for doing away with this sort of imposition and swindle is dawning rapidly. There is no necessity for it. We want laws compelling apprenticeships to professions. No man should be admitted. to practice law who has not been an ap prentice to the business. He ought to be taught practical business at every step through college, and then put into a law office at least four or five years where there is business done, He should not be ad mitted to practice until he is twenty-five years of age and not then until be has passed a thorough examination before a Board established for the purpose. This is absolutely necessary to protect persons from the incompetent impositors who are to be found everywhere, and who know no law and whose minds are as little calculated to unravel the intricacies of legal lore as that of the man who never heard of Coke•upon- Littleton, or any other of the illustrious legal commentators. A man should be brought up to the business. This is the only way in which great lawyers and great physicians can be made. It is only by bringing them up—by educating them in this manner—that the public can have any assurance against imposition. The bung ling of lawyers and physicians exceeds that of any other class of men in America. If the mechanic and laborer were to be guilty of half the stupidity that is daily apparent in the professions they would be sent adrift to starve. Legislation is badly wanted on this subject and the sooner it is had the bet ter. It should regulate the manufacture of these professionals and it ought to reg ulate their fees. The professional class is a favored class, and the laws should regu late the extent of their charges. When will our Solons,who are generally made up of a large majority of professional men, give this subject their attention. AN effort is being made to snake a bill through the Legislature which is intended to fasten the school books, now in use, upon the schools of the Commonwealth for the next six years to come. This should be promptly voted down. What we want is a respectable term for all books intro duced,and a proviso fixing the price. School books, as now sold, cost one hundred per cent. more than they should cost. Every inducement is offered to get them intro duced, but no sooner are they introduced than the price is run up to intolerable figures. Tim Greenback County Committee met in this place, on Tuesday afternoon last, and selected C. C. North, esq., of Hun_ tingdon, Senatorial, A. P. White, of Oneida, and A. W. Wright, of Union, Representative delegates to the State Con vention of that party. The selections are all good. ON Tuesday last the President nominal; John Laugafelt for postmaster at Hollidays . ' -c THE papers are beginning to tell us how very very important the approaching elec tion is going to be. The llarrisburg Tel egraph of Saturday only takes up a column or a column and a half urging united action. Yes, whenever a campaign is ap proaching then the people are told and urged to stand up to the work, and to elect some of the over-gorged fellows for the sake of Republican principles, but as soon as the election is over they can go to the hottest kind of a climate for all they care. We have had enough of this sort of thing. - - EDITOb. THE anti-treating bill introduced into the Legislature by our esteemed friend, ion. Young S. Walter, of Delaware county, is a move in the right direction. There never was a more demoralizing custom than the American system of treating. It leads to more drunkenness and consequent ruin_ ation of the young than all the other com bined vices to which they are subjected. We hope the bill will pass both Houses, and receive the sanction of the Governor. IT is hardly necessary to intimate that the people will not, at the coming Con gressional election, elect men to represent them who are the immediate representa tives of any of the monied institutions of the country. The Greenback-Labor peo ple can't so readily go back on themselves. They will be responsible, in a great meas ure, for the next Congress. A ROW of houses, thirty-two in number , situate opposite the Lochiel iron works, in the lower end of Harrisburg, were totally destroyed by fire on Saturday night last. The houses were the property of the Lo chiel iron company, and by their destruc Lion the company has incurred a loss of about $lO,OOO. lION (?) 0. FLAUG BULLARD, CX- Representative from Delaware county, who skipped from the Sergeant-at-Arms of the House, at Harrisburg, a month or so ago, was captured in Luzerne county, on Tues day last, and by this time is safely behind the bars of the Media prison. A reward of $5OO dollars was upon his head. THE Harrisburg Telegraph says Edison, the inventor of the phonograph, is an atheist and worth $150,000. Well, sup pose lie is, does this in any way affect the value of his invention ? For a secular journal there is a marvelous amount of re ligious illiberality about the Telegraph. IT is reported that quo warranto pro ceedings are to be commenced against President Hayes. If so the Republicans will feel very much like the &Id woman did when her husband and the bear were fight ing. They won't care a continental which licks. The Legislature is still in session. If it were not for an occasional correspondent treading on the great toes of some of the members, we would hardly know there was such a body within the broad acres of the Grand Old Commonwealth. THE man best satisfied with himself, in this country, at this time, is the Presi dent of the United States. lie is a mar velous piece of conceit and self-assurance. Education for the People of the South. 5- NATIONAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBIL- To enable the general Government to per form to its fullest extent the duty of self-pres ervation will require a change in the funda mental law, or in the interpretation of it—a change that ought to be made, but without which the Government may still do much for itself, for classes and for communities. What ever it may do now, however, must be done at the request or with the assent of the States— by permission of the local governments, which should be subordinate to the national author ity, but which in matters of education are su perior to it. When they ask that the resour ces of the nation be diverted from their usual course and turned into the State treasuries for the support or public schools, they should be met in a liberal spirit and with a readiness to make large and generous concessions. To the South, in behalf of which an appeal for help has been made, the Government should extend its hand, and while proffering the mon ey should prescribe the terms upon which it is to be accepted, the purposes for which it is to be used, and the manner in which it is to be expended. It is not for the recipient of a fa vor, especially for one who asks for it, to fix the conditions upon which it is to be received, and as the Southern States are adhering so strictly to what they claim as their rights, even while confessing that they are unable to do what those rights require of them, the General Government should claim for itself every privilege that may properly belong to it in bestowing upon the people of those States the benefits they so much need. If it be competent for Congress to provide by law "that the net proceeds of sales of pub. lie lands shall forever be consecfated and set apart for the education of the people," as is proposed in the bill agreed upon by the House Committee on Education and Labor, it has the same power to regulate every detail of the system of education, to the support of which the fund may be applied. It may lay down a system to be adopted by the States, accepting this benefit, and may make any departure from it a reason for withholding aid from the State that may be guilty of the act. It may require that each State shall have but one system, equally applicable to whites and blacks ; that no distinction shall be made in the facilities afforded to different classes ; that they shall have the same accommodations as to build irgs, teachers, text-books, methods of instruc tion, branches taught, and whatever else may appertain to the subject ; or, better still, it may secure exact justice and impartiality by prohibiting discrimination in any manner or form, even by establishing separate schools for the races ; and anything short of this will be unfair to the weaker and more ignorant race, the one that is most in need of help, and on account of which there is a disposition to render that aid that must be so materially beneficial to the whole South. There is no limit to which Congress may not go when its right to grant money is acknowledged, for that body may follow by legislation every ap propriation it may make until the last penny is expended, the conditions being prescribed at the time the grant is made. The General Government has, therefore, not less power in the premises than if control of the subject of education were expressly given it by the Constitution. The difference is, that the States are not now bound to accept the money if the terms upon which it is given are unsatisfactory to them. If Congress should do as I have suggested, the objection may be raised in the South that it is an interference with State rights. But it should be remem bered there that the South herself has invited the interference, if such it be, She has pro claimed her poverty, her utter inability tq pro vide the means of instruction for her great mass of ignorant people, and confesses that without help she must remain in her present condition, laboring under all the disadvanta ges which a large illiterate population gives her, for an almost unlimited period. Which will she prefer—to remain in this deplorable state, or to accord absolute and perfect im partiality and equality to all classes and col ors in educational matters? If the former, then she assumes the position of the starving man, who, when offered bread, refused it because be bad a right to eat meat. Of what value are rights to those who are powerless to use them, when the very object they desire to attain through those rights are offered them ? Why will the Southern States insist. upon adopting systems of education for themselves when they cannot maintain any system ? Why will they hesitate about abandoning an idea, even their favorite one, when they can thereby secure all the advantages that wealth would give them ; when the nation will pour from its treasury nto theirs all the gold it may receive from its ITIES. vast domain ; when it will give them money. education, equality, and justice at the same time? If these conditions are not as accepta ble as the gift, then the States that reject them are unworthy of either. The supervision of the Government, once exercised, would not long be dependent upon the assent or permis sion of the States, but would soon be incorpo rated into the Constitution and become a part of the supreme law of the land. Let the nation perform her duties to herself, to the South as a section, and to the negroes as a class. Let us not forego the first in order to advance the others, or, rather, let us re member that they are identical ; that whatev er subserves the purposes for which the Con stitution was made advances the interests of the States and of individuals ; that the Gov ernment should be strong—strong in its own powers, and strong in the affections of the people ; that those affections it has a right to cultivate, whether we call the means by which it may do so centralization or by some other name. :MILTON S.

It is a remarkable fact that Bullard was captured in Luzerne county, and that those with him on the night of his escape were all gentlemen of Luzerne county. It was very unkind of Mr. Bullard to wander around in the vicinity of the homes of his late custodians, thus giving the public opportunity to note the above striking coincidence. Both Houses of the Legislature are once more in session, not much to the benefit of the State, it is feared.

Its symptoms are almost infinite in their variety, and the forlorn and despondent victims of the disease often fancy themselves the prey, in turn, of every known malady. This is due, in part, to the close sympathy which exists between the stomach and the brain, and in part also to the fact that any disturbances of the digestive function necessarily disorders the liver, the bowels and the nervous system, and affects, to some extent, the quality of the blood.

People suffer a great deal of pain unneces sarily. Among tortures that need not be endured are those inflicted by the rheumatism and gout, since the acrid element in the blood which produces them by contact with the sensitive covering of the muscles and joints may be eliminated by the use of that match less depurent, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, before the inflammatory symptoms are devel oped to any great extent. When it is consid ered what excruciating tortures rheumatism inflicts, and what a tendency it has, when fully developed, to attack the heart, the advisability of an early use of such a reliable antidote becomes at once apparent. The rheumatic virus is expelled from the blood by the increased action of the kidneys—which act as strainers—produced by the Bitters, and the sufferer will find, if be uses this supreme defensive agent, that be will be protected against a return of the agonizing complaint. Dyspepsia, fever and ague, liver and bowel complaints and other maladies, are also cured by this admirable remedy.
