Editor:—Within the past few weeks 1 * W an opportunity to visit quite a nuui <r,,f schools in Mifflin, and some adjoining • tf'.ics; and for the benefit of teachers and finds of education, wc will relate a few facts 'came under our notice, that they may Kme idea of their true condition. There *" me gwl ones, taught by excellent teach but the majority are not what we had —the want of Professional Teach •'Aeing s tiH very great. 1 first school we visited was taught by a 'jig farmer, lately from the plow, and who M received no special preparation for tho duties of the school room. The I wl contained about two dozen little ur- f 15 Vwere as restless as they well could The first exercise, in the morning, was v~ ttl £ a piece of Scripture by the teacher, na ? which time the pupils busied them '' toy crowding around the stove, each S --living to get the best scat; and we jet they had their thoughts directed to --yUuQg hut scripture. The abecedarians j/Y coJkd and passed over the alpha m D.gkrtng to end, and then sent to ir seats, without any explanation as to the J C k tler * *'ch is about the same fen k • & a room an( * i Dtr °J uce Itat' f'.'7 twenty-six strangers, scarcely m g him time to look at thena. and then tU j out an d require him to recognize and tell their names afterwards. The 'iii 1 rea d' n g paid no attention to the inflections, nor to the sense of the n " ie w^°} c were present, the pilj h WM i continuall J annoyed by his pu ' fo-ked permission to go out, change These f sjlnet ' meß "Please, sir, may 1 talk/" fJ- e^Ueßt# were granted or not, just as 4 of the teacher seemed to dictate hol mU '' infernal appearance of the Si's fir? 0 !" a ' so piainiy showed that tleav ts,ji t il aw none of the pupils' daily Our next visit was to an old tencher (or j "Old Fogy" it'you please,) whose school j was hut little better than the one we just left, lhe pupils in the geography class would an swer su>-h questions as tltcy happened to re member, vUi<oh were nut very inanv, and tin) | teacher would answer the rest himself. Most of the class in Smith's Grammar had been through the book, I was told, hut from their manner of parsing, you would suppose they had just commenced the study; some would call a uoun a verb, an adjective a pronoun, and on being told it was wrong, they, would guess some other part of speech, until they guessed the right one. Analysis was entirely unknown to them. The reading class, how ever, was the crowning of all. The pupils would arise and stand in a row ; —no, not in a row either, for some would prop themselves against the wall, others would set their feet on benches, their elbows resting on their l knees, while one little follow lay half over a ; desk, tightly holding his book in both hands. They would commence to read at the head of the class and go on to the foot, and, while one was reading, Lhe rest had a good opportunity to tell each other short stories until their turn would couie. The teacher, who is one of the sterner sex, suited that the reason why the grammarians diu not parse better, was, because the school had been taught, several quarters before, by female teachers, seeming to think that females were not tit to teach. We, however, differ from him, as the next school we cauie to was taught by a female, and presented quite a contrast to his. Hut in all the schools which wo visited, we did not find one good reader. And in most of them, abstract rules wore studied rather than principles. .V few were taught by Professional Teachers, and in these, neatness and order seemed to reign supreme; thoroughness was their motto, while the pupils appeared happy and contented. We regret ted very much that we could not draw two pictures, showing the advantage of well trained teachers over those who had no train ing, and present them to the eyes of the world. Let no teacher, who may chance to read this article and find that we have described his school, think that we wish to censure him, as our object is only to mention some of the numerous errors which ate daily committed by many teachers, that others may beware of committing the same. SIGMA. Kaon the U.irri.sbura Ti'lesraph. Statements of Country and City Hanks Com pared. Sumo of our city cotemporaries persist in exhibiting the returns of country Banks, in juriously and unjustly. Thus in one of thcui (which is, we are sure, indisposed to do in justice) tho figures of a number were display ed, the uther day, as follows : It AXX ui NORTHUMBERLAND. Circulation, 8125,890 00 Coin, 40.340 43 Deficit, 885,549 57 HANK of DANVILLE. Circulation, 8118,755 00 Coin, 30,804 73 Deficit, $87,890 27 And so of others. In these, no reference is made to balances due by Banks and cash, which constitute often their largest and read iest strength. A.u'.v, we submit to our cotemporaries, whether the statistics of their best city Banks could not be paraded at a similar or worse apparent "deficit.' Wo say apparent, f.r thse partial statenonts do not show the strength of the institutions, in the city or country. Take fur example the following: UjT NOKTU AMERICA. Deposits including balances due to Banks, 5g,404 25 Specie, 043,377 18 Deficit, §1,761,0.57 07 \ li.INK NORTHERN LIBEKTIE3. Deposits including balances I due to Banks, ? 1,007,900 00 i Specie, 139,535 00 \ Deficit, §868,371 00 WESTERN liAN'K. Deposits including balances duo to Banks, 51,029,304 97 ! Specie, 189,000 53 1 Deficit, S 1,010,304 44 These are but specimens of ail the rest, and of Batiks deservedly of the highest credit. Or tnke the aggregate of seventeen Phila delphia Banks, (excluding circulation:) Deposits, Sic., § 15,918,047 00 J Specie, 3,770,701 00 j ©arDEriciT, §12,147,910 00 j Sera • of the city Banks owe country Hunk* ■ more than their whole coin. Is it wise t" dis credit in any way the latter, which, in such ' a case, would have to protect themselves in a 1 state of resumption at the expense of their cii'j ' correspondents / 1 he customary parade of coin against cir- i dilution is ail a iailacy, so far as regards the j Country Banks. Circulation is widely scat- j tered, while tin? deposits of the city are con- j cent rated and liable at any jKinic to precipitate ! a severe run. It is fresh in the memories of j all that the suspensions of Philadelphia and i New York were brought on by depositors. Coin cannot be held by country Banks in the same proportion as in the city ; for tho very obvious reason that their exchanges arc made chiefly in Philadelphia. Holding coin to meet the exchanges of the interior Banks would keep up a daily receipt and disburse ment of specie, expensive and annoying to all parties. Bank balances in Philadelphia, against which to draw, save all this, and con stitute as much strength and availability as specie on hand. The proper way to exhibit the statistics in question is to show the cash means against tho ; liabilities. In such an exhibit there is really but little disparity between the Banks all round. Thus the aggregate liabilities of all the Philadelphia Banks are $16,929,680 ; cash means, §5,902,319 —or as one dollar to two dollars and eighty-three cents. , Taking such country Banks as are at our hand at the moment, the cash means of the Easton Bank are as one doller to two dollars and thirty-one cents; Columbia Bank, one dollar to two dollars and thirty-three cents; llarrisburg Bank, one dollar to two dollars ! and forty six cents ; Lancaster County Bank, one dollar to two dollars and fifty cents.— Other examples might be given, but these are 1 sufficient. B&.H. Wintsr Davie, a representative in Congress from Baltimore, affects to have a sovereign contempt for the wiiplc newspaper press of the country. His contempt can hardly he greater than that called forth for him in expressing such silly bravado, for should the press say that Mr. Davis is a fool, posterity W9U.14 decide him to be so. THE CHEMISTRY OP NATURE. A Self acting Laboratory. —The gastric juice which reduces the food in the stomach to n semi fluid, and the bile whieb tempers this crude material and adapts it to the purposes | of nutrition, are the tWo principal agents in ' the production of venus blood. As health j depends mainly upon the quality and purity of this iluid, a medicine which acts immedi ately upon its elements, discharging therefr in every tainted and unwholesome particle ca pable of feeding er creating disease, must necessarily bo the true elixir of health—a sure antidote to the seeds of all internal dis orders. In this consists the wonder-working power of llollowny's Pills. They seem liter i ally to compel the stomach and the liver to do their whole duty, and to remove every im pediment to its performance. We learn from .their distinguished inventor the rnodus ope randi of his medicines, but our knowledge of their effects is based on our own observation i as well as on the testimony of the world at i large. We know that the victim of liver complaint, with attenuated frame, jaundiced skin and lack-lustre eye, rapidly recovers strength, energy and a healthy appearance under the disinfecting, renovating and regu lating influence of the pills; and if the dis turbance of the internal functions has pro duced external disease, that too disappears under the searching action of Ilolloway'a Ointment The liver is a very susceptible organ. It always sympathizes with the shun ach, and intemperance in eating or drinking, over appplication to business, anxiety, sudden changes of temperature, an unwholesome at mosphere, and innumerable other causes, tend to derange and obstruct its action. What is the practice of the oracles of the faculty in cases of liver complaint? Their sole remedy is a mineral poison—quicksilver, or one of its deadly oxides. Salivate! salivate ! salivate! is the word. To cure one malady another is created. The liver becomes the battle ground between a dangerous disorder and a worse remedy ; and if the patient escapes with life or without carious bones and contracted sinews, it is by a miracle, Hull-way's Pills on the other hand strike at the very source of the disorder, and at the same time give tone to the whole system. Let common smise de termine whether it is better to annihilate the virus of disease by an inocuous vegetable preparation, or to administer poison byway of antidote.—A'. I". Sunday Mercury.

KENNEDY, of I'oxbury, has discovered in one of our common pasture tceedsa remedy that cures I'lvcry Kiml of Humor from the worst Scrofula down to a common Pimple. TI E has tried it in over 110b cases,and never failed ex "ci,piin uvotasra, (both thunder humor.) He has now ia his possession over two hundred certificates of its virtue,all within twenty miles of Boston. Two bottles are warranted to cure a nursing Bore Mouth. One to ihr.-e bottles will cure the wurslkiud of Pimples onlhe Face Two to three bottles will clean the system of Bites. Two bottles are warranted to cure the worst Canker in the Mouth and Btomach. Three to live bottles are warranted to cure the worst cast of Erysipelas. One lo two bottles arc warranted to cure all Humor in the eyes. Two bottles are warranted to cure Running of lite Ears and Blotches among the Hair. Four to six bottles are warranted to cure corrupt and running Ulcers. One bottle will cure Scaly Eruption of the Skin. Two to three bottles are warranted to cure the worst case of Ringworm. Two to three bottles are warranted to cure the most desperate case of Rheumatism. Three to four bottles are warranted to cure the Salt Rheum. Five to eight bottles -.v ill cure the worst case of Scrof ula. A benefit Is always experienced from the first bottle, and a perfect cure is warranted when the above quanti ty is taken. Reader, I peddled over a thousand bottlesof this in the vicinity of Boston. I know the efTecl of it in every case. Bo sure as water will extinguish fire, sosure will this cure humor. I never sold u bottle of it but that sold an other; after a trial it always speaks for ilsell". There are two thines about this herb that appears to me sur prising ; first that it grows in our pastures, in some pla ces quite plentiful, and yet its value has never been known until I discovered it in I&lC—second, that it should cure all kinds of humor. 11l orihir lo (rive some idea of ihe sudden rise and great popularity of the discovery, 1 will stale that in April, 1853, I iK-'ddted it and sold about six bottles per day—in April, 1851. Isold overone thousand bottles per day of it. rioine of the wholesale Druggists who have been in business twenty and thirty years, say that nothing in the annals of patent medicines was ever like it. There is a universal praise of it from all quarters In tny own practice 1 always kept it strictly for humors —but since its introduction asa general family medicine, great and wonderful virtues have been found in it that 1 neversuspected. Several casus of epileptic tits—a disease which was always considered incurable, have been cured by a few bottles. O, what a mercy if it will prove effectual in all cases of that awful malady—there are few who have seen more of it than 1 have. 1 know 'if sevtral cases of Dropsy, all of them aged people, cured by it. For the various diseases of the Liv er, Bii k Headache, Dyspepsia, Asthma, Fever and Ague, Pain in the Side, Diseases of the Spine, and particularly in diseases of the Kidneys, &.C., the discovery has done more goodtitan any medicine ever known. No change of diet ever necessary—eat the best you get and plenty of it.
