In our last issue we ventured to pre

' would' satis.fy, the anti-Bible movement.

, If the Roman Catholic church demand
ed the exclusion of the Bible only, we, as
dissidents, might with a slight effort sub
mit to such a demand. The Golden Rule
would step in and lelp us in our submis
sion ; but this is not all.
The Catholics demand even more ; they
will not be satisfied until the glorious fa
bric of our common schools is swept away,
and nothing left but the ruins, upon which
they would build sectarian and denomina
tional schools throughout the land.
" From an editorial in the New York
Tablet, the acknowledged. organ of the
church we make the following significant
extract :
The School Board of Cincinnati have
voted, we see from the papers, to ex
clude the Bible and all religious instruc
fion from the Public Schools of the city.
If this Las been done with a view to re
conciling Catholics to the Common School
system, its purpose will not be realized.
It does not meet nor in any degree lessen
our objection to the Public Schcol system,
and only proves the impracticability of
that system in a mixed community of
Catholics and Protestants; for it proves
that the schools must, to be sustained, be
come thoroughly godless But to us god
less schools are still lei!s acceptable than
sectarian schools, and we object less to the
reading of King James'bibte, even in the
schools, than we do to the exclusion of all
religions instruction. American Protes
tantism of the orthodox stamp is far less
evil than German Infidelity.
The above ctxract 'points nut the
future policy of the Catholic Chitral.
From the same author - we gilt:4e further
" But there is a second objection to the
Public School - system. - - Exclude — every
sectarian exercise, and wholly secularize
the schools, let them teach nothing of re
ligion; hut be confined solely to secular
education ; what -is the result ? The
system is even more objectionable than
before. Education without religion is as
a ship, at sea, without-a eompasss. The
child so trained will become an irreligious,
unreliable, and, in too many cases, an im
moral member of society. His education
Will be perverted to uses injurious to his
felloW beings as well as to himself. Only
religious and moral principles will pre
serve the true harmony of his beim-, and
direct the use of his faculties and knowl
edge to good and useful ends. Without
those principles his motto will become,
not even that of the heathen poet, " post
wuntmos virties," after money,—or :mate
rial ends—virtue, but " post uummos
villa." If our. Public Schools are wholly
irreligious their fruit 'will be of the same
character. The schools of it nation, next
to the domestiii , fireside, , pre the fotinlrla
tious of its character and greatness. '')Xfith
the poor, in fact, the schools are required
to supplant,. to a ccriain-degree; the influ-
epees of the domestic hearth. Hence, it
has always been a cardinal doctrine, in
the economy of the Catholic Church, to
incorporate religious instruction with the
daily secular teachings in its . sehools."
The inference is unmistakable that the
present agitation of the Bible 'question is
a death aim at the Public schools—the
great guarantee of our civil and religious
liberty. When once we: consent• to the
demands of one religious denomination,
we open
,the way for innumerable dissen
sions. It is not enough for these people
that we give - up the Bible ; we must in
addition give up the great bulwark of our
liberties, that for which our New England
fathers and our own Stevens gained such
glorious renown. Should the State ac-
teed the, disestablishment of-the Common
Schools, or vote an appropriation of a
part of the fund to one denomination,
hundreds of other demands will be made
for like divisions. One whole system - of
education must be changed, oar entire ae
ries of school books, .teaching plainly
man's duties in Church and State, will be
remodelled of necessity, and every refer
ence to God and his word studiously
avoided. While we might be willing as
a last necessity to omit the use of Atte
Bi le in the schools, -yet we can never
consistently favor the division of the
school fund or the abolition of the system.
We. are jealous of our liberties—their
safety rests in the intelligence of the pee.
ple. We recognize no temporal power on
earth save our country and her laws, and
no selfconstituted throne will ever re
ceive our adoration or obeisance.
—'—Since writing the above, .we,have
retid.au article o . n - this subject "forili the
pen of Rev. Samuel T. SpearcD.'D., fron t:
which we make the,follovring extracts :
the change which these
parties desire? Is it. the destruction of
our common school system, and the dis
'tribution of the'publie school funds among
private schools instituted by particular
sects and so conducted us fo teach their
religious peculiarities? If so, then far
distant be the day that shall witness their
success.; We should regard it as one of
the most Serious disasters which could
happen to the country. If, on 'the other
hand, these parties simply desire such a
change in our common school system as
will place its administration on the basis
which we have adopted in the construction
of our civil policy, and if with u view to
this, end they press the' above argument,
then•we confess that the argument is not
only, pertinent to the issue,
,but also one
which, deserves to be carefully considered.
,The premises are undoubtedly the very
-ones upob which Protestants would Stren
:,uously itrsist--for , a•-clike • conclusion,- pro
vided the. Douay versions' were the one
whese, reading was the matter in debate. ,
They. would object to the, use of the
eathOlic Bible in schools conducted by the*
State and suPpOrted
. by funds for whoFe
creation they were taxed: In our judg-
Meitt,.the 'objection would be .well taken,
and, hence ,we are not able tit ~ see why.
Upon the essential, merits - of the argument,,
-the objeCtion is Moe just as 'well taken
- whew dried Catholics'against a like
„use of the-Protestant- Bible. Protestanta
'have no More .right to force the reading of
Sing,Jameis',B veraioo of the Scriptures,
Upon the children of Catholics than Oath:
would 'hive to frirce' the DOnay'
sion upod the children of Protestants.
Both are alike taxed for the support of f
public schools, and both lire under a pr.
ernment which disowns all formal connec
tion between church and state.
. .
It necessarily results, from this view of
the case, that the controversy betw . een
the Protesant and the Catholic can never
be harinoniously settled, except by their
mutual agreement to omit the reading of
any version of the Scriptures in our
public schools. They must come to this
point, or continue the warfare, deciding
the question in this locality and that ac•
cording to the accidental preponderance of
numbers. If this be all that the Catholics
desire, then we. can see no sufficient reason
why Protestants should not meet them on
this basis. It is a fair basis, just to all
parties. It places the Catholic and the
.Protestant on precisely the same footing.
It not only accords with the genius of our
.republican institutions; but also exempts
the public school system from any possible
charge of sectarianism; and opens it widely
and broadly to the children of all classes.
With it the Catholic ought to be satisfied ;
and surely the Protestant can afford to
make the concession, (if such it be,) when
he remembers that, if the Douay version
were the one in debate, he would demand
a like concession to his views.
If however, the Catholic programme
be agitation, either for the , ourpose of
breaking up the common school system
or for that.of diverting a portion of the
public funds to the support of private
Catholic schools, as a sort of peace offering
then we pronounce the programme utterly
insincere in its argument and just as ob
jectionable in its end. To neither of these
purposes would we yield for a moment.
The common school system ought to be
maintained . '" at all hazards,'•' and against
all enemies. No sectarian affinities in miy.
direction ought ever to jeopard its interests.
Moreover, not a dollar of the public money
ought ever to be appropriated for the sup
port of any sectarian schools, whether
they be Catholic or Protestant. It is a
breach of faith. It is virtually htealing
the public money, and applying it to pur
poses entirely foreign to those for which
it was collected. If ,Presbyterians want
Presbyterian schools, then let them orga
nize them upon their own responsibility,
and pay the bills on their own responsi
bility, and not ask Baptists, Jews or
Catholics, through the medium of a tax
levy, to aid them in this work. Let the
religious sects have as many private schools
is they wish, and there teach what they
like ; but when it:comes t. the public
school, in which all are equally concerned
and for the support of which all are taxed
then it seems to us that all had better
merge the religionist in the citizen, and
compromise their differences in the former
respect, if there be any, on the basis upon
which eur political and civil system rests
—a basis that, will he just_to all and ought
to give offense to the conscientious scru
ples of none. The Catholic must accept
this principle and be content with it, if
sincere and honest in the agitation of the
school question. If he will not do so,
then he is shown to he hypocritical iu the
argument in which he offers. He then
places himself in the wrong, justly alien
ates all sympathy on the part of the gen
eral public, and proves hilpself to be the
sectarian enemy of our common school
system.
Letter from Quarryville.
Quarryville Nov. 23rd, 1869
Editor Spy:—
Burt Township is hounded North by Par
adise, East by Sadsbury, South by Colerain
and West by Eden. Population in 1860
1332; Presidential vote in IS6S 340. Value
of Real and Personal Property $284,636.
Has lour grist mills, five saw mills, three
hotels, two nickel mines, one iron ore mine,
seven public schools, two Presbyterian, one
Episcopal, and one Methodist Church, one
Friends Meeting House, and three Pok
Offices. Its villages are Georgetown, Green
Tree, Nine Points, Bartville, White Hall,
and Mount Pleasant.
Mine ridge, a lofty chain of hills, extends
along the Nothern border of the Township;
it is traversed from East to West by tho
"Great Valley," the surface is rolling, the
soil in the valley is limestone, and that on
the higher grounds clay.
Thirty years ago Bart was considered a
poor Township, particularly in the neigh
borhood of Georgetown, then called "Hard
Scrabble," but since that time great im
provements have been made; by the use of
lime the land has become ptoductive, and
few parts of our county present a state of
more general thrift and plenty than "Old
Bart." Her inhabitants are a :staid and
sober people, principally engaged in agri
cultural pursuits.
About one mile North East from George.
town is the celebrated Nickel mine smelting
works, qwned by John Wharton Esq. of
Philadelphia, superintended by Capt.
Charles Dabble, which gives employment
to quite a number of hands. The Phoenix
sills Iron Co. have a , very extensive iron
ore mine near the Green Tree ; about MO
tons of ore per week are hauled from this
nine to Christiana by teams, and shipped
by railroad to the company's works. Ow
log to so much . hauling by heavy wagons
from this place to Christiana. the roads are
Always very bad ; indeed in the winter sea
son, they are almost impassable, all of
which would be avoided by the construc
tion of our contemplated railroad, the route
for which passes through the property upon
which the mine is located.
Georgetown the principal village of the
Township, is pleasantly located about the
centre of the Township. It has a post office,
three stores, tin whop, blacksmith shop,
wagon maker shop, shoe shop, two physi
cians, hotel and church, (Methodist) and is
a place of considerable business.
White Hall has a store, and Episcopal
Church, and is situated immediately at the
Nickel mines.
;fount Pleasant has no business ; it con
tains a school house, and several private
Aweflings, and is located one. mile west of
Georgetown.
Cixeght•Tree has a hotel, store, smith shop,
dtc., and is the place where the elections are
held.
Ine Points, located at the crossing of the
Noble and Wilnaliagton roads, with at hotel,
store, smithshop, post @dice, is pleasantly
situated in a thriving and rapidly improv
ing neighborhood, which twenty years ago
was lying in open commons.
Bartville is located two miles West from
Nine Points, on • the Noble road, near the
line of Coleruiu, has a store, several me
chanics, private dwellings, and it post office.

HARRISBURG, NOV. 24th, 1869
Editor Spy:—Enjoying a few leisure Mo
ments, I thought ht to improve them by
writing to you and informing !you that,
notwithstanding Columbia is a go-ahead
place, we stilt live, and expect to rank'high
xs •a city by the census. Harrisburg, I
doubt not; has improved more during the
last five years than any inland town in the
State. We are about building extensive
water works that will bo the wonder and
admiration of even our own citizens.. All
kinds of mechanical labor command high
prices; besides all our foundries and
i ma
.chne works are doing a very , brisk trade,
hi well ias furnacea, steel, and nail works;
in fact no business men have reason to
complaimof dull times. Our hotels are fix
ing up in anticipation ofgood times when
the Legislature meets, and judging . from
the list of applications for Bunk charters,
we may expect a good time coining. Our
beneficial associations are all in a , prosper
ous condition, and we hear of more being
added every month. We intend next
spring to erect a very large Odd Fellows'
Hall in the Square—an improvement long
:needed, which I think will amply repay the
stockholders. The right kind of men have
hold of it and it, is bound to go ahead.. Lan-'
caster county sends for the first time since,
I think, the •day of our lamented Stevens,
the best representatives, and from 'their
,well known reputation for honesty and In
telligence, we may expect honest legisla
tion.

The °thee of tho stomach is to convert tho food
into a cream-like semi-fluid, called Curare. This is
effected portly by 010 action of a solvent, called the
gastric juice, which exudes from the coating of the
stomach, and partly by a mechanical movement
of that organ, which churns, as ft were, the dissolv
ing aliment. The Citrate passes from the stomach
into the duodenum, or entrance to the bowels,
where it is,,subjected to the action of the bile, and

SPECIAL NOTICE
SCHENCK'S PULMOI":IC SYRUP
Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills, will mire Con
sumption. Liver Complaint and Dyspepsia. If taken
according to directions. They are nil three it, be
taken tit the same time,. They cleanse the stomach,
relax the liver, and put it to work; then the appetite
becomes good; the food digests and makes good
blood; the patient begins to grow in flesh; the -dis
eased matter ripens in the lungs, and the patient
outgrons the disease and gets well. This is the
only way to cure consumption.
To these three medicines Dr. .1. 11. Schenck. of
Philadelphia, owes his unrivalled sticcess in the
treatment of pulmonary Consumption. The Pui•
motile Syrup ripens the morbid matter in the lunet,
nature 'throws it on' by an easy expectoration. for
when the phlegm or matter Is ripe, a slight, een e e
will threw it 011 and the patient has rest and the
lungs begin to heal.
To do this, the Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills
must be freely used to cleanse [he stomach and liver.
so that the Pulnionic Syrup and the food trill make
good blood.
Schenck's Mandrake Pills net upon the liver, re
moving all obstruetions. relax the duets of the gall
bladder, the bile -tarts freely, and the liver is soon
relieved: the StOtth , will show what the Pills con do;
nothing has ever been Invented except velotnel la
deadly poison which io very dangerous to miss ex
cept wito great care), that will unlock a gall-bladder
and start the secretions of the liver like Seheitek'o
Mandrake Pills.,
- Liver Complaint is o ne - M - the mo'.t kohl Irwin *
cannes of Consumption.
Sehenek's Seaweed Tonic is a gentle stimulant.
and alterative, and the alkali In the Seaweed, which
this preser'ption is made of, assists the stomach to
throw out the gastric juice, to dissolve the food with
the Pulmonie Syrup, and it is made into good blood
without fermentation or souring in the stomach.
The great reason why physicians do not cure con.
anmption is, tl.cy try to tie too much ; they gwe
medicine to stop the cough, to stop chills, to she,
night sweats. hectic fever, and by so doing they de
range the whole digestive powers, locking up the ss
cretions, and eventually the patient sinks and dies.
Dr. Schenck, in his treatment, does tot try to scot,
a cough, night sweats, chills or fever. Itemove the
cause. and they-will all stop or their own accord. No
one can be cured of Consumption, Liver Complaint,
Dyspepsia, Catarrh, Canker, Ulcerated Throat, un
less the liver and stomach are made healthy.
If a person nes consumption, of course the lungs
are In some way diseased,either tubercles, abscesses,
bronchial irritation, pleura adhesion. or the lungs
-are a mass of Inflammation and fist decaying. In
such cases what must be done? It is not only the
lungs that are wasting, but it Is the whole body. The
stomach and liver have lost their power to make
blood out of food. Now the only chance is to take
Scheuck's three medicines, winch will bring up a
tone to the stomach, the patient will begin to want
food, it I, ill digest easily and make good blood ; thou
thepatient begins to gam in flesh, and as soon as
the body begins to grow,the lungs commence to le al
up, and the patient gets fl eshy and well. This is th
only ear to cure consumption.
When there is lung disease, and only Liver
Complaint and Dyspepsia, Scheuck 's Sbaweed Tonie
and Illuminate Pilot are stalletent without the Pub
motile Syrup. Take the Mandrake Pills freely in all
-bilious complaints, as they are perfectly - hartnless.
