THE MEETING ON THE TH.
Our readers we hope throughout the
county will bear in mind that Judge Wil
mot will he here on Friday afternoon of
next week, 25th iirstant, when all who de
sire to hear an exposition of his views,
made in plain and simple language, can do
so. As the American Republican nominee,
and as the representative of a great prin
ciple coeval with our independence, he is
the only candidate that can succeed in de
feating the so-called democratic nominee—
a truth so transparent that he who runs
may read. It is in this light we support
him—a support we would cheerfully accord
to Isaac Hazlehurst, were he the represen
tative of the 100,000 Union voters of last
year, and Wilmot the representative of
20,000 only. No truer remark was ever
made than that uttered by the Buckeye
Blacksmith on Friday evening, when he
stated that the Packer men were holding
hut, few or no meetings, because they knew
there was no need tor such things as lon'
a* they could encourage the Hazlehurst
men to hold distinct meetings and refuse to
fraternize with Wilmot, and because this
dissension was precisely what the democ
racy built its hopes of suceesss upon.—
This no sensible man can doubt, and ought
to he sufficient to open the eyes of the
most blinded vision as to the true jiolicy
to be pursued.
As we <li<l not expect to meet with
anything like harness at the hands of the
Philadelphia Daily News, we are not at all
•surprised that it should state in its Satur
day issue that we started out first for Fill
more, then for Fremont, and " finally" for
fusion last year—thus implying that our
advocatiug fusion was subsequent to the
visit of Ford to this quarter. If John P.
Sanderson knew anything at all about our
course, he knew when lie penned those
words that he was lying as a political
brawler only will lie. All parties here,
as well as our files, will tell him that two
months before Ford was in the county, and
within two wetfks of the nomination of
i' remont and Dayton, we advocated a fusion
electoral ticket, and that so far as we are
concerned there could have been no " sud
den change." Hut bring out your list, and
re.- t assured it we are on it for a single
dollar, there will be justice liietcd out to
the swindler who put it there, whether his
name be Ford, Swoope, or Sanderson.
War The Democrat in just now engaged
in overhauling detached portions of Mr.
Purcell'a votes last winter in the Legisla
ture, and lays great stress on his votin
against certain attempts to defeat the bill
lor the sale of the main line by mutilating
some of its provisions. We suspect, if the
truth were known, Mr. P. committed a far
greater sin in the eyes of the Democrat,
than any of those enumerated, by voting
against giving the Sunbury and Erie Kail
road 83,000,000.

THE DEMOCRAT AND ITS TICKET.
The Democrat continues to manifest
much zeal for the weak points of its ticket,
being evidently afraid that the people will
not be willing to ratify the nominations at :
the ballot-box. It has cause for this anxi
ety, and as here and there honest demo
crats declare their inability to vote for some
of the nominees, this anxiety increases, so
that by election time our neighbor will
probably roast and stew like a beefsteak on
a gridiron, though almost everybody else
seems to be calm as a summer's morning.
Dr. Bower too we learn is in hot water,
lie is astonished, surprised, astounded, be
wildered, and we don't know what not, at
the bare supposition ol beiiig capable of
voting for an appropriation to theSunbury
and Erie Railroad, and yet he was regarded
by all as the nominee ol' the men who arc
known to be favorable to such an appropri
ation. He protests too that it is not a
question at issue, as the amendments to
the constitution will cut off such an appro
priation. This at the best is a shallow
artifice. How does the Dr. or anybody
else know that that amendment will he
adopted ? It may be voted down , and
where will he stand then? The friends of
sucli an endorsement or appropriation have
refused in a public meeting to call on him
to pled ye himself, and he has also refused
to do so. If elected, he will probably RF.-
MOYE TO II.ARRISBURG, era SI to he A citi
zen of Mifflin county, and as its represen
tative vote on the tonnage tax, an appro
priation to the S. & E. Railroad, &c. with
out much regard to promises made
in a political campaign, which, like pie
crust, arc generally made to be broken.—
The tonnage tax we regard as a small mat
ter —the other as a great one, an entering
wedge to increasing the State debt. "Were
we in the Legislature we would not now
hesitate to vote for a repeal of the former,
because the consideration for which it was
given has passed away, and more especially
because we regard it as a tax on trade
which the counties bordering 011 the rail
road and main line pay in addition to the
three mill .State tax.
The best thing the people of this county
can do, so far as the Legislature is concern
ed, is to re-elect Mr. Purccll. Above sus
picion in all that relates to anything wrong
—identified as a business man with the
interests of the people —he is one of those
whom it would he had policy to exchange
for a politician who has for years been
scckiny a x'ut in On Lcyis/nture, the very
ckiss of men who ought never to he sent
there.
fetr'Tho following questions, proposed
last week to be answered by A. A. Hanks,
Esq., either in the Democrat or Gazette,
still remain unanswered!
Ist. Were not sundry queries rclatire to
an appropriation to the Sunbury and Erie
Railroad—to the tonnage tax, &c., backed by
a number of democrats, propounded verbally
or in writing to Dr. Bower, and if so, what
was Dr. Bower's answer?
2d. Was not such a letter drawn up and
signed. If so, what has become of it?
3d. Did not Dr, Bower refuse to pledge
himself to any course of action in the Legis
lature ?
The Democrat is also " mum" on the
subject.

Mr. Editor —Tho True Democrat of last
■week, in a defence of its candidate for County
Commissioner, says, although ho is a plain,
hard fisted, honest and intelligent farmer, he
is just such n man as will take a pride in
bringing about a reduction of the onerous
taxes which for a year or two past have been
a burden upon our citizens. I suppose it has
reference to the §20,000 for the new jail—a
building which is an ornament to our county
and to the borough in which it is located; an
honor to the Commissioners under whose su
pervision it was built; and an honor to our
taxpayers, is rain FOR. NOW, look back fur a
moment. Fifteen years ago, (when the shil
lelah editor of the Democrat was a broth of
a boy,) what was done under a Democratic
administration in our county? A court house
was to be built under that all-wise financier
ing party, who are opposod to bleeding the
taxpayers, opposed to tho banking system,
opposed to the shinplaster system, and who
are opposed to all other systems obnoxious to
the dear people—what did they do? The cost
was $13,000. Tho first step was to ISSUE
SUINPI.ASTERB to pay for the building of the
court house. Mark the consequence. These
shinplasters wore put in circulation broadcast
throughout the county, the treasury was said
to be bankrupt, and they were paid out to poor
laborers who eventually had to lose the one
fourth of their hard earnings, on account of
the i.ten court house rats and other shavers ;
and in about five years the court house was
paid for by this process of financiering at the
expense of tho unfortunate holders of these
Mifllin county shinplasters. Now, taxpayers,
judge for yourselves which was managed for
the good of the bleeding taxpayers. Should
this hard listed and intelligent farmer be so
fortunate as to.he elected, it is hoped that lie
will not keep away from any meeting of the
Board cf Commissioners when there is im
portant business to bo transacted, but let him
stand up like a man and vindicate the rights
incumbent on him as a public officer. As to
Mr. Creighton wo all know him to be an in
dustrious, competent man, in whatever posi
tion he may he placed, and the Democrat's
disparagement of him amounts to no more
than tho barking of a squirrel.
LOGAN.
Derry township, Sept. 14, 1857.
Fur the Gazette.
SCHOOLS AND THEIR OFFICERS.
It is a time ef great enthusiasm. The
cause of Popular Education, the teacher's
noble work, the lore he owes to his profession,
are the great ideas of the time and town. —
Institutes, Normal Classes and Associations
have been held. Addresses, having for their
object the intellectual elevation of teachers,
have risen in dignity, aud are of frequent
occurrence.
The avowed object of this great movement
is to improve the character of the American
people. It is proposed to do this by working
on the minds #f the present juvenile genera
tion through the minds of their teachers. It
is thought that the moral and mental tone of
this important class will be somewhat afTectcd
by the minds of those with whom they are in
contact during their impressible days. That
the superior mind will strongly affect the
weaker.
It is therefore thought desirable that the
teacher, in his intercourse with his pupils,
should keep as free from little meannesses as
possible ; that he should aim at the "meek
ness of Moses and the patience of Job:"
that he should be above the gratification of
revenge; that he should never give way to
private pique; that if any "smart" boy
writes a satirical composition shewing up the
weak points of the establishment, lie should
laugh with the rest: and that he should teach
by his example the noble forbearance which
he is to inculcate by precept.
Thfl tochers are told that if they can reach
this high Standard, the citizens of the Amer
ican Republic in 1900 will bo better than
their fathers arc. Ib't may not this desirable
state of things he counteracted? The pow
erful mind affects the weaker. There is a
power above the teachers, higher than they,
which bears somewhat the same relation to
them that they bear to the pupils. If what
the "fountain sends forth returns again to the
fountain," will not the acts of this higher
power be re-produced in infinite succession?
If this illustrious body pass by in dignified
silence the harmless pleasantry to which the
great arc often subjected, and secure in the
excellence of their intentions and actions re
main unmoved, will it not have a good effect
upon the mind of that teacher who has been
told some five-year-old-boy has made faces at
him? Is it always best to ferret out the little
offender, to turn hiui out of school, to rc
moisclessly punish all who saw him make
the face, and chastise rigorously all who did
not tell that he made fgces, whether they saw
him or not? But if the little boy had not
made a face, nor know who d?d, what would
be thought of that teacher who would still
wreak his vengeance upon him because a face
had been made by somebody.
Those acute and large souled gentlemen
who have shown an aptness in taking an ap
plication, may complete the parallel. Is it
the best way to fulfil a public trust by using
it for tho gratification of a small revenge ?
Is it a disinterested regard for the public good
which throws aside fitness, and decides from
personal motives? It is related of Washing
ton that he once appointed a bitter opponent
to a situation of trust, assigning as a reason
his peculiar fitness for the post. The people
of the next generation may bo more disinter
ested than their fathers are—they may easily
be—but the present generation is not in every
-respect an improvement upon the past.
OBSERVER.
[We had not read the whole of the
above article until it was put in type, and
as the closing paragraph evidently has ref
erence to some recent appointments by the
school board, we deem it necessary to say
that we neither approve its tone or senti
ments. Observer probably ascribes " mo
tives" withoutbeing conversant with all the
facts which may have governed the board,
and may for aught we know thus be doing
quite as much wrong to them as is charged
to their account. We have had some ex
perience in such matters, and must say that
next to Chief Burgess, the School Direc
tor is the best abused officer we know of,
whether he does right or wrong.—ED. GA

LOCAL AFFAIRS.
\V. Bear, the Buckeye Black
smith, paid our town a visit on Friday
evening last, and made an effective speech
to a large audience in front of the Court
House. The Buckeye is an American Re
publican, and goes it' strong for Wilmot,
whom he considers quite as good an Amer
ican as Ilazlehurst or any other man, he
cause the former advocates re tor ins that
may be carried out, while the extreme
views of the latter never can be. We are
sorry, for the credit of our town, to say
that Mr. Bear was most shamefully inter
rupted during his speech by two or three
persons, who may have a perfect right of
disgracing themselves as much as they
please, hut have no right to disgrace a com
munity by such conduct, and this they will
learn to their cost if it is again attempted.
FIRE. —A one fctory log dwelling in Bix
lcr's Gap, for some years occupied by Hen
ry Palmer, caught fire on Thursday morn
ing last, about 5 o'clock, and burnt so rap
idly that the occupants lost the greater
portion of their furniture and goods, inclu
ding three beds. The fire it is supposed
originated from the chimney, as it com
menced burning at the roof. While to
many such a loss would be unimportant, to
Mr. and Mrs. P., with a family of five or
six small children, it is a severe blow, and
affords a fitting opportunity to the well-dis
posed to do unto others as they would like
to be done by. Mrs. P. is well known in
town as an industrious and hard working
woman, and deserves all the kindness that
may he bestowed upon her. They have
removed to the house at Reed's saw mill
on Jack's creek, where articles of clothing,
bedding, &c. will no doubt be gratefully
received, or if left at this office we will see
them delivered.
PETTY THIEVING.— There is more of
this degenerating practice —the prelude to
greater thefts—going on at this time in
this town and neighborhood than we have
ever known, no regard whatever being had
to persons or.their station in life. Among
the most flagrant cases that have recently
Coine to our knowledge are a wholesale
robbery of the peach orchard of George
Aurand on the ridge, in which an entire
row or two of trees were entirely stripped
by some eight or ten persons in one night,
and the robbery of the contents of Judge
Moore's spring house on bis farm across
the ridge, where almost every portable ar
ticle was carried off. The thefts of corn
from the fields, men, women and children
carrying it away by the basket and bag
full—of peaches, plums, pears, Ac. from
gardens—of wood, coal, and in truth al
most any and everything that hands can
be laid 011, whether on the streets, in dwel
lings, cellars and outhouses, arc without a
parallel, and betray a recklessness of moral
conduct that speaks badly for the future.
If parents will steal themselves, and teach
their children to steal either by encour
agement or example in preference to enga-
ging in labor, what hope can they have of
their ever becoming honest or useful citi
zens. Nay, the lesson may even react on
themselves by raising up a band of scape
gi,;ces who will neither honor father nor
mother, flnd perhaps bring down their gray
hairs with sorrow to the grave, i hink of
these things, ye night prowlers, before it is
too late.
ROBBERY.—On Monday, a man named
Joseph dates was brought before C. Hoov
er, Esq., by Constable Wasson, charged
with the larceny of the key of an iron safe
and some books belonging to Judge Ititz.
On a hearing, he was committed to jail for
further examination. There was also found
upon his person a pair of new shoes, which
have since been identified by C. 0. Stan
barger as purloined from his store. The
defendant appears to be insane, and ru
mor says that he escaped lately from the
Insane Asylum at Harrisburg, where he
had been sent by the authorities of Blair
count) - . If such be the case, the County
Commissioners of that county should attend
to having him returned.
TEACHERS OP PUBLIC SCHOOLS. —The
Board of School Directors on Saturday last
appointed the following teachers to take
charge of the public schools in the Lewis
town district: [Schools open Ist Oct.]
Male Teach*. ■rs.

The salaries of the white male teachers
rauge from 833 to 838, and the female
teachers from 820 to 825 per month. The
colored teacher will receive 830 per month.
8® ,Several hogs of late have died on
our streets, in most cases attributed to
" buttons," but quite as likely to be the
" hog cholera."
TEACHERS' INSTITUTE. —Agreeably to a
former notice many of the Teachers of
Mifflin county met at the Town Ilall on
Monday morning. They were called to
order by A. D. Hawir, County Superinten
dent, who briefly stated the object of the
meeting to be the forming of an Institute
fur mutual improvement, and announced
the order of exercises. Mr. S. Z. Sharpe
of Menno township was appointed Secre
tary. In the alternobn Prof. F. A. Allen
was introduced as the leader of the Insti
tute. He made some appropriate remarks,
and then commenced the work of instruc
tion in a pleasant and happy style. In the
evening Dr. Woods opened the exercises
with prayer, when the roll was called and
responded to by appropriate sentiments
from the Teachers present; after which an
instructive lecture was delivered by Prof
Allen. On Tuesday many more teachers
arrived, and a much greater interest was
manifested. In the evening the exercises
were begun by some excellent music from
the Normal Singers. Prayer by Rev.
Bowers, and an interesting lecture to the
class by Prof. Allen. On Wednesday
morning the Institute was opened by music,
and prayer by ltev. Itoss. Sixty names
have been entered and a lively interest is
prevailing, which it is hoped will exert its
influence on the schools of our county.
The exercises will continue during the
week, and being free to the public, ladies
and gentlemen can spend a pleasant even
ing by attending at the Town Hall.
3lr. llickok, State Superintendent, will
lecture this (Thursday) evening.
ft®*"Robert Campbell and Adam Ilarsh
barger attended as delegates from the Mif
flin county Agricultural Society at the elec
tion of Trustees of the Farmer's High
School. Frederick Watts of Cumberland,
James Miles of Erie, and Joshua P. Eyre
of Delaware, were unanimously elected
Trustees. Judge Watts was then elected
President of the board and (Jen. James
Irwin Secretary. After the transaction of
some other business the with about
two hundred visitors and friends sat down
to an excellent dinner prepared by the la
dies of the neighborhood, and laid out on
a table eighty-six feet long, arched over
with foliage, tastefully decorated with flow
ers, fruits and garlands, and laden with the
best the ludy friends of the Institution
could possibly spread before their guests.
Judge Hale then made an interesting ad
dress on the benefits to be derived from
the institution. He was followed by Judge
Watts, who proposed to be one of ten, to
give 81000 each, to raise additional funds.
Gen. James Irvin said he would give 81000.
Several counties were then pledged in suc
cession for the same amount. Mr. Harsh
barger said the delegates from Mifflin were
not in a position to pledge that county to
any set amount, but would do the best they
could. The meeting appeared to have
passed off pleasantly, and all were no doubt
gratified with their visit.
EgL= At a meeting of the pupils of the
Normal Class on Friday afternoon last, the
following preamble and resolutions were
reported and adopted:
WHEREAS, Feeling it Lut just to tender an
expression of the sentiments and feelings of
the Normal Class toward their teacher, Prof.
A. D. llawn, for his disinterested labors in
their behalf—toward those who favored them
with their interesting and instructive lectures,
and toward the Board of Directors of the
Borough of Lewistown for encouraging the
cause of education by kindiy permitting them
to occupy tlie Logan School llouse; therefore,
Resolved, That we, as members of the Mif
flin County Normal Class, hereby tender our
thanks to Supt. A. D. llawn for the efficient
