Why! as a traveler, he has visited every land and slims on tbe Globe, and bt has, what few people possets, the com bined power of description, aloquence, wisdom, wit and humor, to tell what be bat experienced and seen in anch a manner as to captivate tba au dience and receive hearty expressions of their appreciation throughout the entire hour and a half or two hours that be may speak. No one tires while listening to him. In bis lecture The Old Times and Tbe New," on Tuesday ev ening, he gae saeh a vivid description of tbe ancients and their work that nothing seemed to be left that then liviug in these modern timet could claim as the work of their own laventloa j but after making his comparisons with modern timet, It maket one proud to be aa American.

JUKV COMMISSIONER BI.UNDEH8. Tht editor of the Wilkes Barre iaodV ap propriately alludat to tbt carelessness of those whese duty It It to take oare of the Jury wheel In this way t "It stems to have become tbe fashion for a lawyer who bat a client charged with some serious offense, and against whom the evidence It formidable, to devote bit whole attention to in vestigating tbe manner la which the jury wheel was filled, or the panel drawn, or the bill found by the grand jury, Aod almost every time he hits an Irregularity somewhere. The case of tbe Kemble gang Is only one of a dosen of the kind that bave lately tome under our notice. Some times tht jury wheel it not locked and sealed. Then the Jury Commissioners open tba wheel 1b tho absence of the Sheriff. Then the key bat not been at all times aad aoioterruptedly la custody of the Sheriff Then the Commissioners bave failed to too are the jury wheel by sealing the same with tbelr seals. The grand jurors were not properly sworn, f ktn teas aa arra man tn tk jury room. The jurors have been Importnned by outsiders. Or something of this kind bas transpired. It seems to us that this Is all wroag If these Irregularities, when proves, are soffleleot to warrant tbe dissolving of a Court or the quash lng of aa Indictment and we don't dispute It then a good deal more care should be taken by those la authority to see that they are provided gainst. Every official having anything to do with the filling of tht jury wheels, the drawing of juries, tho direction or custody of Jurors, or having anything whatever to do with Juries, grand or petit, should bt minutely Instructed at to their duties, and given to anderstead that If they fall to perform those duties tojtho letter, they will have to pay sows sort of a penalty. Tbe result of their eareleunftu Is coitly to tbe tax payers. That's bad. The dslejs It secure to criminals sometimes affords tbtm aa opportunity for a flual tempo from the elutcfaes el the law.

Along with tht practical bits and good sense, there was humor enough throughout tbe lecture to make It enjoyable to all who listened to it. It was pro oounocd good. Take the Institute through from Monday till the close, oa Prlday, it was a grand success, abounding with Intersil and pro3t to ail in at tendance. The personal appearance of the teach ers in attendance, and tht Interest manifested in the pre frets of eduoatiooal affairs, betokens bet ter thiols in the future for the instruction of the youth ef Clearfield countv. We hope for It, aod will anxiously await tbe result. County Super, totendsat McQuowa Is deserving of much credit for the energy displayed la getting a good turn out of the teachers. The number of teachers p retent, actually engaged, was two hundred and ten, bet I Jot some fifteen ex-teaebera, making a total of two bundrod aod twenty-five. All tbe teachers ia the county were present, except about thirteen, three of whom were detained at borne on account of Illness. Thirty directors of tbe ciuniy were in attend ance at the srsslcms of the Institute at different times. The meeting of directors la tbt Court Home on Thursday afternoon was sparsely attended. Tbe Joint Committee appointed out year ago to examine text-bouks, bold a meeting on Wednes day sterling. Only one director, however, was preioat to represent the views of that portion of tbe Committee. The Committee was composed of twelve persons originally seven teachers and five directors and at their last meeting we un derstand that but seven members were present. Three of this no to bar are not now engaged In tbe school work of the county, tt was found that tbe number of directors present directors' day dlJ ftt ! aft, wkUb, will lb atUortfaa. tied state af the Com mil tee when it made the report, was the plausible reason for the Superin tendent asking that no definite aetlea bo taksa at that time. Had It been pushed through lo gratify the book agents and tbelr friends, the meagre representation of directors would have given Itaa endorsement that agents would have oitd in making tvtry persoo believe that tacb aetloa made the report binding. The Superin tendent's position against a radical aod hasty change In tbt school text-books of tbe eonnty It right and proper, tod will receive the approval of a number of the members of tbe Committee, as well as tbt tax payers of tbe oounty.

Obntlbiiaii : Allow me, a to old reader of your valued journal, herewith to tend you a few iinep, which please insert In your next issue. I will voutb ror their truth, and know by their publication a great deal of good will bo acoom plished. Having been a reader of your piper for many years, 1 hope you wtll kindly grant my re quest. For twelve years I had suffered, from time to time, terribly with Rheumatism, te such aa ex teat that I wa unable lo move about and lost the use of my limb. I tried everything recom mended to effect a tare, eon suited some of the most prominent physicians, and expended large sums of money, hoping to find relief, but without any success. Glanotng over the columns of tbe many cure tbl remedy bad eflected. Having been disappointed o many times, I lost all faith in any remedy, the St. Jacob's Oil included, until I sw one day that It had cured a well known oltiaen with whom I am acquainted- Other partiM fully endorsed the value and wonderful power of tbe Oil, telling me that it had cored them of different ailments la a very short time. This brought me to a conclusion. I said to my self, "Sobweiter, fify oenta won't break you " so I went to my druggist, Mr. Book, bought a bottle of the Oil, and must now confess thai tbe result wm truly wonderful. 1 esed it every two hours, and found relief immediately upon the first ap plication, and tbe pain ceased entirely after a few more applications. Fearing a new attack, I re mained tn bed and continued to aaa the remedy every three hour. All pain having left me, I arose from bed aod walked down slain without any trouble. Since that time 1 bava been able te lotiow my occupation and feel no pains or Inconvenience, however d I rag ratable the oh an gee of the weather mav be. Kevin thnrooahlv tested the St. Jacobs Oil, I can conscientiously recommend It to all afflicted with Rheumatism, filty cents tt a small expense when the service for so trilling an outlay ara eon Hatred, ll l was one mooaana miles away from all human habitation, I should, nevertheless, procure this remedy aad hoop it always in my bouaa.
