School Hoard and Teachers.
FromJwhaVwo havcbccn'nbloto learn
during Uio patt few days, It appears to
.UB'.tbat apportion of tho most intelligent
(?)' roembers of our Scliool Hoard havo
determined to oppose tho employment
of fcmalo teachers during tho ensuing
term of our 1'ubllc Schools, averring
"that no fomalo shall teach in tho new
school houso If they can help it; that
they want strong able-bodied malo teach
ers who can thrash tho children in n
satisfactory manner!" Hencolt appears
that, In their opinion, tho "power of
bruto force" is tho principal qualifica
tion to bo looked for in a teacher for
tho schools of this borough. From this
it would appear that thoso intelligent
(?) members ot tho board have concluded
that tho only way to developo tho mind
of tho rising generation Is to batter and
brutso tho body; that the first and great
est qualification for a teacher for tho
Lehluhton Schools must bo a thorough
experience In tho science of whipping
one, for Instance, who has graduated at
tho whipping post in tho State of Dela
ware. Hut according to article 125,
pago 50, of the School law, wo do not
sco how they can legally mako such an
appointment. "Tho employment of a
teacher without a valid certificato from
tho proper county superintendent, is
illegal; for tho law says: "no teacher
shall bo employed In teaching any
branch of learning othor than thoso en
onumerated in his or her certificate!"
Tlio art or sclenco of Hogging children
is not of theso enumerated branches,
hcuco wo fall to discover, how tho board
can legally appoint such an individual
to govern our schools, unless they In
their mighty (?) wisdom create n now
office, and appoint a general flogger for
tho schools, for wo do not think our
amiable county superintendent will con
sent to glvo a certificato for flogging,
oven to satisfy thoso very astuto mem
bers of the board.
And now, let us sco what tho law
says In regard to tho employment of
fomalo teachers. Artlclo 127, page GO,
says: "Tho opposition to fomalo teach
ers, so prevalent In somo counties, has
no foundation In reason or tact. Tho
truth Is, that n larger proportion of
women than ipsn,'aro qualGed, by na
turo as well useQucatlon, to impart
knowlcdge'to beginners; and that when
equally educated, women ore as capable
ns men of Instructing In tlio higher
branches. The mother Is tho first In
Btructor; and tlio sisterly mind of tho
female teacher seems to bo peculiarly
qualified to continue her Instruction."
And yet in spito of all this, the would
bo wiseacres of our School Hoard, de
nounce tho employment of feinalo
teachers in nur schools, declaring that
not ono snan no engaged it tliov can
rule. They must employ whlppera, and
yet we havo not tho least doubt If their
own children wcro brought under tho
discipline of tho lash, they would bo tlio
first to hold up their bauds in "holy
horror" and cry "enough of that, our
children must not bo degraded in tills
manner tho whip was Intended for
tho children ot others!"
Now, wo would suggest to our Scliool
Board that they give liberal salaries to
the teachers; that they get tho. best
qualified malo and fcmalo teachers they
possibly can teachers fitted men
tally and physically for the profession,
tind It the funds will not hold out to
glvpus thobestof teachers for ten mouths
scliool, then let us havo a shorter torm.
Six months schools with properly quali
fied teachers will bo much better than
ten months-wider teachers whosn only
qualification is that of being able to
whip and thereby d'grnde tho children
ot tho people of this borough. In tho
name of tho Intelligent people of this
community wo demand at tho hands ot
our Directors that they employ good
teachers for our Schools, no matter
whether malo or female. Our taxes
aro paid for this purpose, and tho Di
rectors are placed in position to uso tho
peoples money for tho best Interest of
the people.

The Fourth.
Tho nunlyersary of this day ought to
bo the consummation of thoso noblo
principals that brought It Into existence
not n departure from, tho Impairment,
or overthrow of them. Asafreonnd pa
tilotle people wo should endeavor to
show that tho creation of our form of
government has given an exhibition of
the rights of man, nnd thereforo is ad
apted to tlio purposo for which it was
Intended. Has this been our aim? Aro
wo worthy sonsof noble sires? Trno wo
aro In tho enjoyment of much which
cannot bo contemplated without heart
felt gratltudo to the Ruler of Events
who has raised us from tho midst of
foreign oppiesslon to become thu great
est among tho nations of tho earth. No
longer need wo fear tho tread of Invad
ing armies; no longer listen to tho mand
ates of monarches, but there is enough
of political Infection within us to causo
the final overthrow of tho best fabric ever
reared on the vlrtuo ot n people. Our
professional place-hunters may be per
fidlous, but they nro not Invested with
unlimited power, nor can their perfidy
destroy our inherent rights to bo free.
Our country may yet ho brought back
to tho igo of Washington. It may be
restored to that purity of disinterested
ncss, of patriotism; to that era of Inde
pendeuco and honesty. This should bo
our earnest prayer.
Therefore, let all tho pooplo join In
tho celebration of this the Nation's Hlrth
not that wo enjoy all tho blessings our
Institutions wero intended to convey
but that wo acknowledge no masters
nnd that nono can deprivo us of the
liberty they confer. Let us thauk God
that It is our privilege to livo in a land
where republicanism Is no longer an
experiment, and whero Liberty may bo
perpetuated for ages to come.
Tho act approved Juno 17, 1874, en
titled "An net to Incrcaso pensions In
certain cases," provides that all persons
who nro now entitled to pensions under
existing laws, and who have lost either
an arm at or abovo tlio elbow, or a leg
at or above tho knee, shall bo rated In
tho second class, and shall receive $24
per month; provided, that no artificial
limbs or commutation therefor shall bo
furnished to such persons as shall be en
titled to pensions under this act. Tills
act by its terms, was to take effect on
and after Juno 4, 1S74.
Gen. faker, Commissioner of Pen
sions, announces that persons embraced
within tho provisions of tills act can
secure the benefits of tho same, without
a formal application and without tlio
Intervention of an attorney. A power
of attorney will not be recognized In an
application for tho luareasu of pension
provided by this act. A letter from tho
pensioner addressed to the Commis
sioner of Pensions, enclosing hU ponslon
certificato and giving his Post Office
address, will boa sufficient presentation
of his claim.

THE nUr.OI.AHS HARVEST.
Fully ouo half thu dwelling houses on
our yniuclpal street cro closed, tho door
steps aie covered with dust, and the bell
pulls have grown tarnished. Thlssptnks
plainly that tho owners nro out ot town,
nnd the burglars havo now an opport
unity for plunder, which they havo long
uecn waning ior. uur city emuraclne:
an area of one hundred and twenty-nine
squaiu nines, ami Having Ju.uuu build
lugs, has crown too large to be const
antly guarded by our pollco force, which
nas not grown in numbers, ns our city
has Increased In size, and- no person
who locks up their house, and leaves tho
city for a stay of weeks, need bo sur
prised to find their household, goods
missing when they return.
It Is a well-known fact, that burglars
can enter almost nny house which Is
not occupied, generally effecting an en
trance by tho roar poitlun of tlio build
ing, and remaining- frequently for days
in houses, awaiting a tavorablu chance
to romovo their plunder. A i.uorito
way of robbing houses, is to cut i a
house which Is for rent, and operate on
houses In the samo block, through their
trap-doors on tho roof. 'o know of a
large establishment, that was successful,
ly robbed In this manner n few mouths
ago.
Jy many It Is thought unfashlonablo
to remain hero during the summer, and
somo families who have a scarcity of
money nnd brains, glvo out that they
havo gono to the "springs," and cloo
the frout portlou of their mansions, nnd
livoasort of hermit life in their back
buildings, keeping up communication
with the outsido world tlJVough their
back gate. The number of pronienad
ers on Chestnut St, havo considerably
dlmlulshed, and everything betukens
that tho mountains and valleys havo
taken our people from us for a teason.
M00NLI0IIT CAUNIVAL.
Wo had a moonlight carnival nt tho
park on Wednesday evening, which was
attended by abouttcu thousand persons.
It was for the benefit of the Centennial
Fund, which insured its success. Seven-ty-fivo
musicians discoursed excellent
music, und dauclug was kept up till a
late hour. Our people have not lost their
enthusiasm for the Centennial Celebra
Hon, and nny eutertnlument for the nld
of It Is liberally patronized. Wo viu
wo could add that tho receipts of tlio
carnival equalled the nttendaneo, but It
seems that ot the five thousand persons
who paitlclpated directly in tho carni
val, only eighteen hundred paid for
their tickets. If tlio operations of the
Woman's Centennial Committee nro to
be cuiied on In tills manner, wo think
tho fewer carnivals they havo tho bet
ter. When a number ot our laboring
people lmvo contributed a day's wages
to tho Centennial, and our seamstresses
aro urged to contribute their mites to
the "glorious cause," It seems n shamo
that such an army ot dead-hews sliould
bo nllowed to sponge off tho carnival In
mi manner.
Work has already been commenced
on tho Centennial grounds and will be
pushed forward with vigor.
A NEW iiuidoe.
Tlicro Is a strong effort being made
here, which will no doubt bo succecs
full, to havo tho Schuylkill bridged at
Walnut street. Property owners rep
resenting threo hundred millions worth
of real estate, havo petitioned Councils
to liavo the brldgo built, and tho pro
ject generally Is a popular ono. Tho
brldgo would greatly cnhaiuo tho vajuo
of real cstato in West Philadelphia, and
provo a great convenience. Thero nre
now two bridges being built across tlio
Schuylkill, onont Callowhlll street, and
the other at South street, nnd tho Glr-
aid Avenuo brldgo lias just been com
pleted, In addition to these, we arc to
have a temporary bridge at tho park for
the Centennial, to accommodnto the in
creased amount of travel which will
then take place. Thero aro no signs of
"jobbery" about tho new brldgo pro
jeet, but It seems to bo necessary for tho
convenience of our citizens living across
tlio riwr. Tlio now brldgo will cost
about SI, 1500,000. The travel across the
river Is Immense. The Chestnut nnd
Walnut Street Hallway, one of the roads
which cross the river, run one bundled
nndforty-fivo cars to accommodate their
patrons.
ClHLDltEN'S FREE EXCUnslOSS.
Tho Children's Freo Excursions will
bo continurd tills summer as heretofore.
and tho children nro jubilant at tlio
pleasure in storo for them. Theso ex
cursions wero originated in 1872, nnd
t Heir object has been to let tlio poor chll
dren of our city see the country, and
enjoy the fresli air. They aro supported
by piivate subscription, and the money
thus donated Is used to the best ndvan

freo ride to tlio grounds and return,
they aro given a fino dinner, ami tho
excursions nromado further Inviting by

hundred children frequently participate
in an excursion, which not only serves
as a pleasant change from their homes
In alleys and courts, but materially Im
proves their health.
TiuuMi'it ovr.n difficulties.

Tho Government of Great Hrltaln
publishes every wuek an accurate nnd
detailed statement of Its receipts and
expenditures. Our Government makes
public no statement until llvo months
aftef tho end of the fiscal year. Tlio
new Secretary of tho Treasury, Mr.
Urlstow, could pot introduce a more
beneficial reform than to commence giv
ing us nn official weekly statement ot
loceipts and expenditures, with tho ag
gregate's brought down from the begin
ning of the fiscal year. Such statistics,
in addition to tho Information they
would afford in regard to the public reve
nue in expenditure, would ba of great
vaiuo to mo uuiiness community. As It
is, being nblo only to mako n rough
gues3 at tho reveuuo, and a still wilder
ouo at tho disbursements, a cannot ac
count fortlio Improvement shown In the
Government'sfinancesns compared with
last year's record.
Alio receipts Irom Internal rovenuo
during mo mourn to date havo been S7.
01)4,000, which makes the rovenuo for
tho fiscal year something inoro than half
a million 01 dollars auovo tlio estimate
made by tlio Commissioner of Internal
llovcnuo. Tlio receipts for the remaind
er of Juno will probably amount to half
n million of dollars, mid It will thus
raise me receipts ior tlio fiscal year
more than n full million of dollars nbovo

nnd the diminished revenues which fol
lowed for some time upon It, this result
is regarded ns quite satisfactory.
