Doings at our School House “First class of vagabonds, rise!” thundered our schoolmaster. Well, the vagabonds rose. "Now answer every question correctly, or I'll break every bone in your bodies,” was the next pronunciamento ot the old autocrat of our red school house. Sapi ent old pedagogue! thy years were many and full of knowledge. Looking back through a long vista of birch rods, I can see his restless grey eyesdaiting in quirk glances from pupil to pupil, in search nl the graceless scamp” who threw the last spit ball with such wonderful precision as to barely escape his nose, and stick fast on the wall. And, now I recollect, he had a most perplexing squint—a squint accommodating: for, if he appeared to be looking * directly at one, that one might “go it,” and no { longer fear of being detected; for his optical focus was otherwheres* directed—but, if his eyes were fastened in a direction, one could not tell where, then be wary, for it might be on you. Glorious old master! if your eyes squinted, your heart was as true as the needle to the pole—your affections had nosquint; you thrashed all alike; and all alike shared your wonderful store of knowledge. This was the last day of the quarter— tor a week our individual store-houses of lore had.been progressing through the various stages of mental ventila.tion. and reno vation; our memories jogged; dormant ideas awak ened, and all our energies scoured up to a high state of brightness, by copious applications of the mas ter's brick-dust of eruidition. We were in prime order. “John Crown, what do you understand by acou stics / 1 “Why, a stick to drive cows with, I "spose." ‘Get out, you young vagabond! did I not just see you reading about the science of sound ?” ‘•Guess, not—that was about Sylvester Sound, the Somnabulist.” e • It was, eh? Sarah you are John s younger sister?” “Yeth, thir.” “What is acoustics!” “I know, thir, —it ith, it ith the art of making a noith, and hearing a noith.” “Y< u are right—explain it.” “Yeth, thir. If you stick your finger into your mouth, and then pull it out suddenly, the cold air rutheth into the vakkum and produtheth a thound that thriketh on the tympan of the ear, which mak eth the thound audible, and it ith called thience of a coulhtixth.” “You are quite right, Sarah. John, can you now tell me what is meant by. acoustics! Be careful, sir, or you'll feel my stick.” . “Yes, sir. A cow sticks your finger in her mouth and kicks over the tin pan, which sounds awful, and is called the science of a cow's kick.” “Well, John—you do credit to your teacher.— You may take your books and run home. Willy Chase, what is the-currency of the United State*?" “Cash and money. “What are its denominations?" “ Coppers, bogues, and flungtown cents, pennies, tips, tourpence, ha pennys, levys, ninepence, Spanish quarters, pistareens and shinplasters. 1 ' “That will do. Jones, what is the standard weight of the U. S.?" “Scale weight, and a wait a little longer." “What is a hundred weight." “One hundred and twelve pounds." “Samuel, how.many kingdoms are there in the material world?" “ Three, only three.'' “ Four, I think, sir.', “Well, name them—what are they?” “Mineral kingdom, animal kingdom, vegetable kingdom, and kingdom come.” “ Now, how many kinds of motion are there?" “ Four.” “Two; voluntary and involuntary." “ .Simon says there's four." - «r‘i’\Vhat does Simon say they are;’’ “ Point, point) up, point down, and -wigwag." “You rascal!T ve a mind to wigwag yoiir jack et! Hadn t you better describe the motion of my stick.,’ “ I can, sir.” “ And its effect? - “Yes, sir, Up stroke, and down stroke—the up stroke, regular and easy; the down stroke spasmodi cally electrifying indescribable." “ You understand that, I see. Susanna, what is matter?'’ “/Yheje is nothing the matter with me, sir.” “ I ask you what is matter, m-a-t-t-e r?*’ “ Yes, sir—matter is every thing that has sub stance —There s animated, and vaccine matter, and'—.. “ No matter about the rest. Speaking of vaccine matter, puts me in mind of something else. There has been a case of small-pox appeared in the village, or rather, vailoroid, which is the botanical name lor small-pox—and Mr. Scapel says he has some prime, vaccine matter, of his own manufacture, warranted to take--and he will vaccinate<the whole village at eight cts. apiece, and take his pay in potatoes. All recollect, and when you go home, tell your parents. —George Smith, do you recollect the story ofDav rid and Goliah ?” -* “les, sir—David was a Javern keeper, and Go liah was an intemperate man.” “ Who told you that ?” “Nobody. I read it and it said that David fixed a sling for Goliah, and Goliah got slewed with it.” Wasn't Goliah giant, a strong man?” - “ Yes, he was a giant, but he had a weak head. ’ “ How so?” “Why, to get so easily slewed." “ Yes, George'; fhat was undoubtedly owing -to the strength of the sling. Wasn't David a musician ?" “Yes, sir—he played psalms on the harp, a fav orite instrument with the Jews, and at the present day is called a Jewsharp. I have one in my pocket —here it is. Place it in your mouth, thus—breathe on the tongue gently, then strike with your finger, this way—and the psalms, in harmonious corncob, fructify on the ear as natural as thunder.” “Thats sufficient—you can pocket your harp. Simeon, how many points to the compass?” “ One! father broke'the other off; opening an oyster.” Thirty-two—can you box the compass?” “ No, sir.” “ Master.” “ Well, Isaac, what do you want? I guess he can't box it, for I see him boxing with Jack Smith This morning, and he hit him first rate, hit him right in the nose; yes, I guess he did! he didn t do nothing shorter.” “ Squat yourselt down! Jane, what is time ?" “ Something that flies any How.” “ Why, tempus fugit." “ Latin ; it means that time flies, and how can time if it flies, be any thing- else than something that flies'?” “Exclient! What is the meaning of requiescat in pace ?” n “ Rest quiet cats in peace.” “lYell, Jane; at Latin you are perfectly au-fait which translated means perfectly awful—it is a great phrase, from the classics, and applicable to this class, particularly. Now, take off*your jackets, and I will give you “rewards of merit.” Those who get more than they merit, can keep the over plus as a token of my special affection for them ; and those who gej: less, can have the mistake rec tified by mentioning it to me—you will find me quite obliging. Pope says, *• as the twig is bent the tree is inclined;” and that is very true, for I have used up whole trees, thrashing your jackets for you.”— N. Y. Inveterate. SPEECH. OF HOW. JAMES A. M’LAWAUAW, OF PENNSYLVANIA, On the Slave Question. Delivered in the House'of Representatives, February 19, ISSU. The House being in Committee of the Whole, and having under consideration the annual Message of the President— Mr. M LANAHAN obtained the floor,,and said : Nothing was further from my intention than to address either the House or the Committee ot the Whole, at so early a day of its session. But I have been so much astonished and pained by the senti ments I have heard avowed upon this floor, that 1 would do injustice to my own feelings, as well as to the expectations of the sterling constituency I have the honor in part to represent, were I to remain entirely silent. Sir, not many days alter the com mencement of the session, an honorable member trom Georgia, (Mr. Toombs.) under circumstan ces of the highest excitement in this hall, emphati cally asserted that the dark and portentous subject of slavery lay at the bottom of all our difficulty in affecting an organization of-the House; that sec tional feelings, sectional prejudices were at work, and sectional lines were about to be drawn, which arrayed the North against the South. Let us for a moment revert to what has occurred, and see with what semblance of justice a charge at once so se rious and so important was made. A Southern candidate for the Speakership was nominated by the Democratic party, and supported by the united votes of that party, North and South. A Northern candidate was nominated by the Federal party for the same office, and was supported by the united Northern and Southern votes of that party. I have nothing to say of the guerilla troops that hung on the flanks of the great contending armies. But, sir it is well kpown that the regular line of battle was drawn up according to '.veil established party tJctica. Party organization was paramount to all sectional feeling throughout the contest. Had sectional or pdrty lines been drawn, how different the result; for then it is and must be perfectly evident to e\er) one, that the conjoint vote from the North and West, irrespective of party ties, could have elected the officers, and organized the Committees of this House within two hours after we were assembled Together oh the first day of the session The Spea ker occupies the chair in which you now sit by a party vote, and was thus invested with the author ity to'appoint the committees. With what skill. judgment, and justice he discharged that important duty, remains to be seen. It is true that the nom- inee of-the Democratic party for the office of Clerk —a gentleman, by the way, who brought to the advocacy ol the Southern view of the question ot slavery an amount of energy, and argument, and eloquence, seldom equalled and rfever surpassed by the most gifted son of the South—it is true he was defeated by the desertion of Southern Democrats. who saw fit to elect a Southern Whig. No one dare allege that this division arose from sectional motives. It was purely patriotic. The vote cast a lew days ago to lay upon the table the resolution of the honorable member from Ohio, (Mr. Root.) indicated any thing else than the existence of sec- tional feelings on the question of the Wilmot Pro viso. Thus, it must be seen that the accusation against the integrity and patriotism of those who represent The freemen ot the North and West, was as unfounded as it was uncalled for and unjust. Mr. Chairman, does not the history of the last Presidential campaign furnish grounds to imagine that scarcely two years ago some ten or twenty thousand of the chivalrous yeomanry of the sunny >otirh, might have been seen eagerly pressing around one of their favorite* orators, as he pro eburned to them the glad tidings that a political saviour had been found to relieve the South from the thraldom of Northern fanaticism ?—that the Constitution was safe, and the Union would be pre served?—that he gave them joy that the candidate was Gen'l Taylor, a Southern man with Southern feelings, and Southern principles? Elect him and let Congress pass the Wilmot Proviso in a territo rial bill, he will interpose his constitutional veto, and preserve the rights of the South. Let Congress pass a bill abolishing slavery in the District of Col umbia, his constitutional veto will protect you in your just rights. May we not suppose him as adopting the favorite and familiar language so often introduced in the resolutions of his political party at the South? “The candidate whose claims 1 advocate is ot us. is with us, is for us. Elect him, preserve yourselves, your constitution, and your country from destruction.” And as his “words that burned and thoughts that .breatheJ" fell upon the ears ol his too credulous' auditors, one jor.g, loud shout of joy burst irom their hearts.— The day came, their votes were cast, and General Taylor was elected President of the United States. 1 he first Congress under this new administration had scarcely convened; parties were balloting for a Speaker; the President's message had not been sent in; not an intimation of his policy had been given; the House unorganized, nut in a condition to legislate on the subject of slaveiy, or on any Either subject; and a Southern orator is seen rush ing into the hall of national representation: “ His eye, in a fine phrensy rolling, - Doth glance from Heaven to earth, from earth to Heaven, And, as imagination bodies forth the- forms of things seen, His fancy turns them into shapes, and gives To airy nothing a local habitation and a name; Such tricks hath strong imagination.” Aye, sir, that same voice is heard here , invoking the spirit of discord to preside over your councils, until he has some assurance for Southern rights on the subject of slavery, proclaiming disunion.' and willing to dedicate himself, body and soul, to the accomplishment of this high and noble purpose. L)o Southern Federalists forget Truman Smith s Southern lile of Geneial Taylor? Do Southern orators torget their solemn pledges to a confiding constituency ? Do they forget that the redeemer of the South from Northern thraldom was elected, has taken an oath to support the Constitution, and even now sits at the other end of the avenue, in stalled President of th'e United States, daily receiv ing aid and comjort from that American Talleyrand. the far-seeing prime minister, Clayton ? Or have their fervent hopes, “ in this the winter of their dis content'’ for political salvation from that quarter, fallen into sullen despair? Mr. Chairman, it is not my design to enter into an elaborate argument upon the various thrilling and important questions involved in the present momentous issue before the country; it is simply to state here, what I believe to be the sentiments of a vast majority of the people of Pennsylvania. Sir, this war of v the political elements rnayrage; the tempest of civil discord may howl around and within the Capitol; but there is no danger of the destruction of the Republic. The memorable decla ration that “the Union must and shall be preserved," is as true now as when it was uttered bv the illus trious Jackson. The “old Keystone” of the Federal arch is in the right place, and the foundations of that arch are laid firm and deep in th'e affections of the peo ple. The geographical position of Pennsylvania— the moral integrity and proverbial patriotism of her citizens, give her an influence between opposing Southern and Northern extremes, always has and always must be felt in promoting the general welfare. She is emphatically the conservative State of the Union. Receiving fewer benefits from, and conferring more on the Confederacy than any other State, her s.eli-sacrificing motto has ever been, “ Union for the sake of the Union.” If she regards the Wilmot Proviso as one of the political humbugs of the day, she looks upon Southern nullification as another and a more detestable one. Il she consid ers Northern fanaticism as a chimera, she regards Southern fury as another and a greater one. Ex tremes are always dangerous ; and if ever the North and South meet, it must be alone there where je saiety—fh the moderation and patriotism of a mid' die course. It need not be concealed, and it cannot be denied that in Pennsylvania, we, with a unanim- : Ty unequalled on any other subject, regard slavery as a national curse and a national disgrace. In deed, sir, this is the noble and triumphant sentiment of the age in which we live. \Ve sympathize in it with all our fsoul; and in doing so we but keep time in the progressive march of mind, pressing onward and upward to the attainment of the polit ical and religious freedom of every son of Adam. But we remember the Constitution of our country, and we would not forfeit our faith to the Union by “THAT COUNTRY IS THE MOST PROSPEROUS, WHERE LABOR COMMANDS THE GREATEST REWARD.”— Bcchahait. CITY ()!• LANCASTER, TUESDAY MORNING, MARtH 19, 1850, altering or erasing one jot or tittle of that sacred -compact. We would leave the question ol slavery where the” Constitution left it—with the people of the Stales in which it exists. "This was the solemn decision ol the Congress of the United States as early as the year 1790, when the Society for the Abolition of Slavery in Pennsylvania petitioned for action on the subject. It was then resolved “ that Congress have no authority to interfere in the emancipation of, slaves, or with the treatment ol them in any of the States—it remaining with the several States alone to provide any regulations therein which humanity and true policy may require.” A-sMo the absolute and unqualified right of Con gress to legislate on the subject ot slavery in the Territories, we have not the slightest doubt. The right is given in the clear terms of the Constitution itself—so amply*and so often interpreted and con firmed by a series of legislative precedents, that it is a matter of astonishment that any jurist couid ever hesitate on the subject, or that even a Virginia abstractionist could have raised a quibble. But it does not necessarily follow that, because we have the right we ought therefore to exercise it. We may- possess a right, and it may be inexpedient, unnecessary; nay, even unjust—toexercise it. To say the least of it, it is not now necessary or expe dient, under existing circumstances, toexercise our constitutional right, and legislate on the subject in ihe territory now telonging to this-Government.— 1 he question is settled in Texas; and should it ever again raise its hydra head within that State, it must be in the adjustment of her boundary lines, which is clearly a matter of Judicial investigation and decision. California has framed her Constitution, and excluded slavery; that settles the question there—and that Calitornia will ultimately be ad mitted into this Union is a foregone conclusion.— By the local laws of Mexico, the territory of'New Mexico, vvhatever be her boundaries is free. Sla very must exist by posive law, and therefore cannot exist in New Mexico, until the will ot the people, tbrogates the law as it stood at the time of the cession ol the Territory, under the Mexican 1 trealv ot peace. The principle is a plain one. Ii the Canadas were either ceded by treaty or annexed by tn act ol Congress, they would come into the Union’ is Free Soil. If, on the other hand, Cuba was ei ther ceded or annexed, she would come in as slave territory. In one case, it would require a positive iaw by the State itself to create the institution ot •slavery; in the other, to inhibit or abolish it. But ••hould it ever become necessary to settle this point."' The proper tribunal for its adjudication and decis ion is one which the whole country would cheer fully appeal to—l mean the Supreme Court of the United States. These Mr. Chairman, and fellow representative?, are my views, and in my humble judgment, the views of the people of Pennsylvania, briefly, and. 1 trust, clearly, expressed on these grave and momen tous questions. With us the preservation of the Union is a paramount consideration. We cling to it as the sheet-anchor of all our hopes. We vener ate it as the ark of the covenant of bur national existence, and withered be the hand that sacrli giously touches it. This great confederation of sister States cannot perish; it must not be. Having* many members, the Republic has but one body.— \ This nation has but one heart, and every pulsation of that heart beats high and strong for Union. Sir. cool, cunning, deliberate calculations have been made in this Capitol, as well as elsewhere, of the value of this Union. I will not .stop to point out the miserable fallacy of such calculations. My feelings revolt at the mournful task. Judas Iscariot sold his Lord and Master for thir ty pieces of silver. Conscience stung, he flung | back at the feet of those who bribed him the glit- j teriug treasure, and hanged himself. Ilis bloaied j ami disemboweled body fell a disgusting spectacle ! to the earth, and his guilty spirit went hissing to ; hell. That. American citizen who could betray his country arid barter away the Union for mere pecuniary considerations deserves no better fate. But, sir, I say again, this Union is safe. If the President of the United States and Congress assem bled cannot preserve it, twenty millions of freemen can and will; and wo be unto him who. either North or South, raises the traitor cry of disunion. An invisible but an electric chain of national sym pathy binds the people of this country indissolubly together in one common brotherhood. It is their pride and their glory to be one. What, sir, dis solve this Union ! —a Union cemented by the high est and holiest associations of the past, the proud triumphs ol the present, and the glorious prospects of the future! Never! Dissolve the Union! God of my country, forbid it! j FRAGMENT- BY PERCIVAI. Ho comes not—l have watched the moon go down, But yet he comes not —r.nce it was not so. He thinks not how these bitter tears do flow, The while he holds his riot in that town. Yet he will come and chide, and I shall weep : And he will wake my infant from its sleep, To blend its feeble wailing with its tears, O! how I love a mother's watch to keep Over those sleeping eyes, that smile which cheers My heart, though suns m sorrow, fix’d and deep. I had a husband once, who loved me—now He wears a frown upon his brow, And feeds his passion on a wanton’s lip, As bees, from laurel flowers a poison sip ; But yet, I canno* hate—O’! there were hours When I could hang forever on his eye, AnihTime, who stole with silent swiftness by, Strewed, as he hurried on, his path with flowers, I loved him then—he loved me too—my heart Still finds its fondness kindle, if he smile ; The memory of our loves will ne’er depart; And though he often sting me with a dart, \ enom d and barb’d, and %vaste upon the vile Caresses which his brbe*and mine should share ; Though he should spurn me, I will calmly bear His madness—and should sickness come, •And lay its paralyzing hand upon him, then I would with kindness all my wrongs repay, Until the penitent should weep and say How injured and how faithful I had been. Alarm and Thief Detector Mr. Nicholls, of the U. S. Pay Department, at New Orleans, has invented an alarm and thief de rector, of which the Picayune gives the following account:— The former is so constructed as, on being open ed, to produce a tremendous noise similar to the screeching of a gas-escape of a locomotive. This is lollowed by the descent through a tube of a quan tity of sonorous or brass, as may' be chosen.) which are at length thrown successively Irom a hopper to the-floor, rattling, with teriific force. In the midst of the confusion of sounds pro duced by the falling balls, a bell begins trt’ll, and so loud as positively,to startle even a penoi who is prepared to encounter the alarm. The machine ry which puts in operation the alarm, occupies but a small space, and can be put inside money safes, armories, or other pieces of furniture in which val uables are preserved. . The noise created by it ex tends to a great distance, and would effectually scare a. thief to a precipitate flight. The thief de fector is a simpler and more portable piece of ma chinery, designed to be placed inside doors or win dou’s of stores and dwelling houses, as a protection against depredators. It consists of a heavy grating which is suspended within a double groove in the upper part of the door or window frame, and con nected by a spring with the floor beneath. Imme diately as the foot of the robber presses on the floor inside the threshold, the spring is put in action, when down falls the grating; and the intruder is caught like a rat in a trap.” Furniture, Chairs, &c. GREAT inducements are now offered to cash buyers at the sgjjHasEßHF? corner of East King and Duke streets, where may be found one of the best manu factured and most fashionable STOCK OF FURN ITURE, consisting of * French Bedsteads, Sofas, Bnreaus, Chairs, &c., ever offered to the people of Lancaster city and county, to whom he returns hi-* thanks for past avors, hoping that he may still receive a share of pub ic patronage. All economical buyers are requested to call and xamine his beautiful stock, before making their purchases elsewhere. c. WIDMYER.

They occupy a middle ground between theTufsty,disjoin ted, and necessarily imperfect records of the news papers, and the elaborate and ponderous treatises to be furnished by the historian Ht a future day.. Whoever reads these periodicals obtains a correct and connected account of all the important political events of the old world, as they occur* and learns the various conclusions drawn from them by the leading spirits of the age. The ers therefore deem it proper to call renewed atten tion to the u works they republish an 1 the very low prices at which they are offered to subscribers.— The following is their list, viz - : THE LONDON QUARTERLY REVIEW, THE EDINGBURG REVIEW. THE WESTMINSTER REVIEW, THE NORTH BRITISH REVIEW, and BLACKWOODS EDINGBCRGH MAGAZINE, In these periodicals are contained the views, moderately, though’ clearly and firmly expressed, three great parties in England—Tory, Whig, .and Radical—“ Blackwood” and the . es London Quarterly” are Tory ; the ,*•' Edinburgh Review” Whig; and the “ Westminter Review” Liberal. — The “ North British Review” owes its establish ment to the last great ecclesiastical movement in Scotland, and is not ultra in its views on any one of the grand departments, of human knowledge: it was originally edited by Dr. Chalmers, and now, since his death, is conducted by his son-in-law, Dr. Hanna, associated with Sir -David Brewster. Its literary character is of the very highest order. The Westminster,” though reprinted under that title only, is published in England under of the “Foreign Quarterly & Westminster,”'irbeing in fact a union of the two Reviews formerly published and reprinted under separate titles. It has, therefore, the advantage by combination,’of unitihg in one. work the best features of both as heretofore issued. The above Periodicals are reprinted in New York, immediately on their arrival by the British steamers, in a:beautiful clear type, on fine white paper, and are faithful copies of the originals, Blackwood’s Magazine being an exact facsimile of the Edinburgh edition.
