The streets looked clean, and the green sward on

A HINT TO THE TEACHERS Or OUR
Pcinic Seim()Ls.—in view or the fact that our
public schools open next .Monday, we publish
the following, written by Dr. F. A. Tenny, for
the Michig,au Medical .Newl :
Although there has been much said and
done in regard to the sanitary condition of
our schools, there is one point that has not
been touched upon so far as I have seen or
heard. I refer to the rules adopted and en
forced in the matter of letting the children go
out during school hours. I believe there is
more injury done to the health of children by
their nut being allowed to respond to the
calls of nature, than by all the ill-seated, ill
ventilated, ill-lighted, or heated school build
ings in the land.
This belief is not based on mere assump
tion. I have conversed on the subject with
many mothers (and who knows better than
the mothers ?) and they reply to my question,
"Do your children complain of their teachers
not letting them go out?" invariably in the
affirmative. I have myself a boy whom I fear
has been injured for life just from being kept
until the bladder became so distended that it
has never returned to its normal condition.
Many times he has come home pale and sick,
and for days has been unable to micturate
without great distress. I stn now obliged to
insist on the teacher that he be allowed access
to the water closet at will. Every time the
teacher is changed the same thing has to be
repeated. This winter one of the basements
of a school building in this city was being
repaired, and there was not a day that chil
dren did not set in urine-saturated garments
because they were not allowed to use the
water closets. If a child insists on going out
it is kept after school hours ; therefore many
control the desire and suffer rather than sub
mit to the punishment.
If our children must get their education at
the expense of their health, I say let the
schools go to the dogs. I know bow annoy
ing it is to the teacher to be interrupted con
stantly with, "School mann, please may I go
out ?" but she must remember it is better
that many should go unnecessarily than that
one should suffer injury.
A TERRIBLE FATAL DISEASE COMING
EAST.—For two months or more a form of
disease has prevailed among children in Cin
cinnati resembling diphtheria in some of its
forms. It seems to differ front diphtheria
mainly in its virulence, many of the cases re
sulting fatally in two or three days after the
development of the first symptoms. While
the disease resemb:es diphtheria in many of
the types of that disease, yet it does not yield
to diphtheritic treatment. It shows entirely
new katures, with which the medical profes
sion are not familiar. The symptoms are an
extraordinary swelling of the glands, accent
/milled by high fever. The disease seems to
be coufiaed to children between two and ten
years of age. In families of three or ;Oar
children under ten years of age where the
disease broke out, an average of two were
attacked, where the rest remained exempt.
The disease has been prevalent in Cincinnati
and vicinity about six weeks, but is now hap
pily waning. It seems• to be epidemic for a
time. Some ckaths occurred from suffoca
tion alone. The disease seems to have come
from the west, and appears to be traveling
eastward. Nearly two months ago it attract
ed attention in Chicago, where it then battled
the skill of the pbyaicians.
SALE OF PROPERTY.—Ou Friday the
13th inst., Sheriff Irvin did not sell all the

ciety, and will be second in numbers and merit
only to the ever-memorable International Exhi
bition, held at thu same place during the Centen
nial Year. The premium list, which can be ob
tained from the officers of the Sociuty, at their
office, North-west corner Tenth and Chestnut
Streets, Philadelphia, is the most complete and
thorough that has ever been presented by any
similar organization, and offers for competition in
the Live Stock Cla• s alone the handsome sum of
S2-1,:115. In the Dairy, Fruit, Vegetable and
Floral Departments, the further sum of $4OOO is
added. besides a large number of elegant and
valuable gold, silver and bronze medals, whose in
trinsic value will aggregate the entire sum of
more than $40,000 in actual cash.
The display wail include a large number of Im
ported, Thoroughbred, Fine Bred, and Draught
Horses; herds of Short Horn, Devon, Holstein,
Jersey and Guernsey Cattle; the choicest breeds
of Sheep, Swine, &c., together with a Mechanical, -
Vegetable and Manufacturing Collection seldom,
if ever, brought together iu any community. Ex
cellent and eommolious stabling has been pro
pared within the building for Horses and Horned
Cattle, and a:suitable space assigned on the ground
adjacent for the accommodation of Swine. The
Machinery, Dairy, Fruit, Floral, and Domestic
Departments are all provided under cover, and
will undoubtedly prove attractive and instructive
features of the Fair. A space has also been as
signed for the exercise and display of all the en
tries in the Live Stock Classes, but no racing will
be permitted. Green food will be supplied all the
Mileh Cows on exhibition, and hay and straw

AN INFURIATED STEER THROWS A
MAN OVER A PRECIPICE.—Dr. W. T. Shaffer, of
Mt. Union, was severely injured, between that
place and Shirleysburg, on Monday last, by
being thrown over a thirty-foot precipice by
an infuriated steer. The particulars of the
accident, as we gather them, are about these :
On the day in question the Doctor was driving
from his home to Shirleysburg, and when
about midway between the two places he met
a neighboring butcher trying to drive a stub
born steer to Mt. Union. The Doctor left his
buggy and hitched his horse for the purpose
of assisting his neighbor. By this time the
bovine had become very cross and ltubborn,
refusing to be coaxed or driven in the desired
direction. Just at this point there is a preci
pice some thirty feet high, close to the road,
and as the Doctor was trying to urge the:steer
along the infuriated animal made a rush to
wards him, and before he could make his es
cape it caught hint on its horns and tossed
him over the precipice, and not being able to
recover itself it fell over the edge and alighted
on the prostrate form of the Doctor, terribly
crushing one of his arms and inflicting other
slight injuries. The only wonder is how he
escaped with his life.
BIRMINGHAM BUBBLES.—A correspon
dent at Birmingham, under date of 20th inst.,
sends us the following :
The old zinc works at Birmingham are be
ing torn down.
A. G. Morris is putting. new machinery in
his mill for pulverizing limestone for tertili•
zing purposes.
Two and three-fourth inches of rain fell
here between 3 e. xf., yesterday (19th) and 5
A. to-day (20th) as shown by Col. Owens'
rain guage.
A new siding is surveyed at Birmingham to
a Limestone quarry for Mr. Holmes, of Belle
fonte. He is taking the stone out fur the
Johnstown Iron Wurki.
About thirty boarders are spending the
season at the Alountain Seminary. Prof.
Grier proposes to wake it a pace of resort
during the summer vacation in the future.
Op INTEREST TO FARMERS.—The
Lewistown Gar,Ve has ol its table a sample
of "Washington Glass wheat," which it feels
warranted in commending to the favor of its
agricultural friends and readers. The qauiple
came trout .Mr. I'. S.'Kearns, of Decatur town
ship, and is fall, large, and well developed
grain. Three years ago Mr. Kearns obtained
half a bushel. This year he sowed about
seven acres from the product, and the yield
has been over 33 bushels per acre, or 250
bushels in all. It is free, he tells the Gazette,
from all deleterious associations, and better
flour has never been in his house than made
iron) it in an old-fashioned mill. Having
satisfied himself that his wheat is a superior
article, after three years of trial, he is willing
to share with his brother agriculturists, who
desire to change their seed, and will dispose
oral( he can spare, while it lasts, to such of
them as apply for that purpose.
IN V ENTORS employing' attoruies familiar

FOREIGN COUNTS VERSUS HOME
MECHANICS.
BY Tun BARD 01 TOWER HALL
In a far-off Eastern city,
A pretty maid did live,
Who was determined never
ller heart and hand to give
To a living human creature,
l Bless almost divine;
She had a poor opinion of
The gender masculine.
Fir,t a young mechanic a4ted
it she would be his bride,
''\'o! I'll wed no poor mechanic,"
She haughtily replied.
"I was born for something better,
I'd have you understand;
You are bold in your presumption
To ask of me my hand'"
Then a beardhiss dandy wooed her:
lie had an oily tongue,
But as no mustache had started,
Because he was so young.
She gave him such a gentle hint.
As led hint to infer
That he must raise some whiskers ere,
lie raised his eyes to her.
Overwhelmed with disappointment,
And almost in despair,
That his chance to win the maiden
Hung on a single hair,
lie went off and took a julip:
In that he drowned his woe;
Ile did not blow his brains out, for
lie had no brains he blow.
Then there came another suitor
To win the maiden fair;
Ile was not a tear-faced wooer,
But muzzled like a bear;
Ile had a fine imperial,
Moustache, and whiskers, curled,
And a lordly air about him,
As if he owncd'the world.
'Twas said he was a foreign coun`,
Incognito while here,
And had at home a shady park,
With room for one more dear.
lie thought the maiden of our song
Would find herself in luck
For, wedding him, the happy dear
Would get a fine young buck.
They met, and when the fair one gazed
Upon his whiskers fine,
She felt that she had found at last
The paragon divine.
They courted through the summer months,
And married in the fall;
She gave her heart and hand, and ho
Gave beard, moustache, and all.
One night they passed in pleasant dreams,
A happy wedded pair;
But ah, alas ! the next morn's light
Brought sorrow and despair.
The count arose and washed his face,
Bat fear o'erwhclmed his soul ;
The glue had started, and he left
Ills whiskers in the bowl.
The wife looked up, she saw his face
Smooth as a new-mown lawn;
Save here and there a single hair,
Ills whiskers all were gone.
She swooned and fell upon the floor,
Her reason overthrown;
The count secured her jewelry,
And left for parts unknown.
Then, ladies, dear, don't let your hearts
Be wrecked by foolish pride,
In spurning any honest hand
By labor dignified.
Mechanics are our noblemen—
They clothe at TOWER HALL—
Wed them and shun the foreign counts,
Of no account at all.
