LENT.
Tbe Lenten soasou begins to-day (Ash Wednes
day), and will eontinuefor a perM of forty days,
oloslag on Easter Sunday, April loth. By aouie
autboritlaa tba term "Lent" is derived from tbe
Faxon "Icnfften," implying Spring, and by others
from the German "lelnea," to tbaw. There has
als been a d ill ere nee of opinion as to the object
of tbe fast, but It Is now everywhere in the Chris
tian world accepted aa tbe season set apart for
repentance for sins of th past year and a prep
aration for the joyous Lester festival. While the
number of forty days devoted to th Lontcn period
Is generally accepted aa baring reference to tb
Saviour's fait in the wilderness, yet some hiitorl
ana speak of it as possibly having bad Its
origin iu tb forty day of th deluge,
tb forty years' wanderings of tha He
brews, lha forty days granted to tb Ninevltea
aa a period for repentance or tbe time spent
In fasting by Moses and Ellas. Tb rast Is
spoken of by Bt. Jeroma as a memorial of tba
Saviour's passion, and according to other authori
ties It was Inilltutad by th apostles, though It la
by many believed not to have been established
until Ibe second or (bird century. Karly In the
latter the penanc wa made obligatory, though
there was at first great diversity of oplnlua ai to
tha time and manner of Us observance. Tba
ohurch at first fixed Its duration at thlrty-sii
duys, but subsequently four mor wer added
making th period th same aa a now generally
observed throughout ohriatsndoin.
Tha "Regulations for Lent" just made public
by Bishop Tuigg for tha guidance of members of
his flock in tha dioeesea or Pittsburgh and Alle
gheny during tb penitential season, are In alt
respects similar to th roles promulgated In other
dioeesea. They are as follows: All tbe faithful
who bar completed tbelr twenty Hit year are,
unless legitimately dispensed, bound to observe
tbc fast. An exception Is made in favor ol all
persons In ill-health, women nursing Infants, etc,
who are exempted from tho obligation, as ere
those who are employed al hard labor. Tha time
fur perfoiming the Kaster duty extends from tb
first Sunday of Lent until th second Sunday
after Easter, Inclusive ; but In districts remote
from a church the time is frequently extended at
tha option of lha pastor ia who locality th

February 2j.h, loSl.
Our correspondent evidently takes us to be a
lawyer. In tbil bo ii mistaken; but he com
municates some common sense bullosas ideas,
and we will give him our view of tbe case, whether
right or wrung.
The faot that a borough or township has a sur
plus of cash on band , after the ourrimt year does,
sometimes, depend upon contingencies that no
officer can control. Generally, where Ibe fact In
dicated (an overplus of mnvy ) occurs, tbe officers
imposed tuo much tax tb previous year, either
through Ign trance, or tbey designed to speculate
with the taxpayers' cash.
If a School Board, Supervisor, or Overseer ol
th Poor, calls upon ui for any or all taxes for
1M, and we learn that tbelr treasuries ara full,
brought onr from l&8t, we would refuse to pay
it and, meet them befor a Court and Jury and
have tbe case legally tattled.
'THE NEW TAX BILL.
En. RsfiBLirAw : I noticed In your last issue
a oopy of Iho Bill for the collection of taxos.
Pow, (fit Is In order, I would wish to file objee
tlnns to some of the provisions of that bill. With
all due respect for Mr. Hall's ability as a Senator,
I do not tbink that alaw of that tied would work
well in our county at least. Section four ia very
objectionable: In the first place, from the fact
that It places tbe duplicates in th Collectors'
bands too 1st in the season, just after tha time
for collecting taxes Is over in our oounty. Wbv
not substitute June lo place of August; tbat would
let in lb School taxes, as th School law requires
tb tax to be levied at tbat time. In tha
second place, should it become the law, It would
virtually unhinge the Road matters in our county
at least' for it is a fact, that a great portion of
tha Road taxes are worked out In tba month of
August aod September, which time appears to
suit tha farmers best. I know that If tha dupli
cates be placed in the Co I looters' hands at that
time, one-balf at least of tbe Road tax would not
be worked out, and I do nut sea where any pro
vision is mad lor th making of tbe roads after
that time. Hoctionfive, 1 notice, makes no pro
vision for oollsollng after theexptration of oneyear,
Eerhapa that Is rlgbt, it will have tba effect to
urryupthe Collectors. Secton nine ears th
accounts of tbe Collector of laxej shall be set
tled by th township Auditors or bir-mga Audi
tors, Now it does not state who is to settle the
County taxes, neither does It make any provision
for any abatements of taxes th at ean nut be col
lected. Now, Mr. Editor, I hare thought for a
long time that w ought to hare a mi.re uniform
law In our State for the assessment and collection
of taxes, but 1 have very serious doubts whether
a luw of ibis kind would be any Improvement nn
th old law. For my part I would prefer th old
one ; but as I am not a lawyer, perbeps I do not
understand it properly. Let us have your view
on it. Yours Truly,
Taxpayer.
W have watched the collection of taxes lor a
number of years under both tbe old and new sys
tems. No law can ever be framed that will auit
alt sections of this great Commonwealth. But,
alter all, th wrongs complained of under either
Act of Aisemby often arises, not from tb law It
self, as much as from its ol serranca aad execution.
The difference between lh two systems Is not
much. Make the right man Colletor,and theright
Commissioners and Assessors, then all the arils
will be cured. Ko. liar.)
LAWRENCE HEARD FROM.
Emtob RarraurAN : Detir Sir: I trust you
will, tbrongb the columns of your paper, giro m
space to speak for the first time.
Being a reader of tbe Viiitm, I bar bad occa
sion to sea the many slurs and false accusations
that hare been heaped upon tbe schools, tha
teachers, and th Superintendent of our county.
Now, Mr. Kdltor, I don't pn pose to apeak dis.
paragingly of lh & tint, (as it Is n good county
paper, and I admire It in every respect, except
its vile and unjust tirade against the teachers and
Superintendent of nor public sebools), but I do
emphatically censure the foul-mouthed and Jeal
ous accusations brought agalust Ibeio through the
instrumentality of said paper.
1 know, and the thinking minds of th county
knew, that Jealousy, hypocrisy, and Injosllce are
lha prime agencies of all thia tirade and vilifica
tion, aod tbe maasesa are aware that Mr. Me
(Juown cannot afford to employ mor than two
printers, and he ba shown his non-partisan prin
ciples by patronising both n Democratic and n
Republican editor. Could tbe editor of Iho
Cid'sea conscientiously ask Mr, Mctuown to fake
his printing from editors tbat have served In tb
oouaty so long and faithfully, and lira it to him?
Certainly not. Then be should not entertain suoh
vindictive balled for any man on thai account.
Jealousy is doing it all deep-rooted jealouiy
but instead of coming ont manfully and aoknowl.
edging lt,he tries to cloak his guilt by sneaking H to
hi paper and raising a" stop-thief "cry of abuse of
the schools, the teachers and the Superintendent.
Does he think that an Intelligent man or public
will gratify him or his demands, by defending
Ihemvalrea against his insults aid alcmosynary
weakness ' Far from It.
Again, mark his Irony and the dire reflections
be endeavor to east on a self-made man, by
wrmderkog "how It comes he waa elected to th
oAV he now holds."
Thacttitens of our ooonty have known Mr. Mo
Quown from boyhood. They euow that ba was a
faithful and untiring student, and by hard stu dy
aod peesevoraoco, placed himself upon the list of
successful teachers. And on aoeount of hia many
sterling qualities, his untiring sal and sincere
devotion to the great and glorious cause of educa
tion, be was elected by a alee directorship to th
responsible position ha li ao eminently Alted to
hold. Mr, Bixlr has asserted that lb schools
ara not In a prosperous condition. 1 take pleas
ure in denying lb assertion point blank, What
does an itinerant editor know about tbe schools of
a county f Vt bat intereat has he In the schools of
Clearfield county 1 Nona at all. Probable be
thiaka his readers ara a shallow, shoddy public ;
that be can make them believ whatever he wishes
to, by his bigoted, stall fed literary swells. Rut
he will perhaps dtsoorer that ha la disastrously
wrong, and bia fa I a accusation will yet recoil
upoa tb bead of tbe Instigator.
In regard to tba aebools of our county, I will
limply say that they have, through the lahori,
Influence and exertlnni of Intelligent hoards of
director and a worthy Superintendent, reached
n high standard of excellency, and to-day tbey
stand acknowledged among tha beat lathe State,
and onr eounty Is na longer called "tee wild-cat"
regions el Henosylvanta.
L'ol. Sanford, who has lee tared In almost every
county in th Stale, end in almost every Slate in
I aioa 1 traveled through every county, kingdom
and mplr In lb known world, has said Ibe
sebools f Clearfield ooaa'y ar aeeuad to none In
