NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 30.--By an arrival at this
port the Picayune has advices from the city of Mex
-443 to the 14th inst.l The only news of importance
is that relating to jhe Tehuantepec contract, and
the surrender of the ( Sonora expedition.
The'Executive having conceded to Congress the
privilege of deciding) upon the several Tehuantepec
propositions recentl submitted, that body proceeded
to vote upon the propositions before them, and upon
he vote being counted. the contract was declared
fo be awarded to Guanajuat & Co., a company
Which has generallir been supposed to have stood
but a poor chance of success. The decision there
fore created no little excitement.
IFrom Sonora we learn that some further engage
ments had taken place between the Mexican troops
and Count Raoussett, the leader of the French ex
pedition in Ithat State, which resulted defeat of the
latter, and the surrender of the entire expedition to
ihe Mexican forces.
The Falcon has arrived with $30,000 in gold, in
luding what is in the hands of passengers.

• Lancaster, January 4, 1902,
Teachers' institute.
To the Teachers of Lancaster County, Male and Fe
male, and of every Grade of School.
Anumber of Teachers and others, composing
the Lancaster County Educational Association
and interested for the improvement of Schools, pro
pose to hold a Teachers' Institute in the City of
Lancaster during the week commencing on Mon
day, January 24, 1853, and have appointed the un
dersigned Committee to make and announce the
necessary arrangementp.
The object add mode of proceeding of such an
Institute are as follows: All the Teachers in the
county who desire to become members; assemble
at stated hours daily during its continuance for
mutual improvement. The most accomplished and
experienced of their number are selected to ex
plain, by lectures and familiar illustrations, certain
of the branches most usually taught in schools, and
the best modes of giving instruction in them, with
the means of government and of treating the most
usual cases of difficulty which meet every teacher
in the discharge ofthe duties of the school-room.
The members of the Institute are not formed in
to classes, nor questioned and drilled, like pupils
in an ordinary school ; neither the time allotted to
the Institute nor the standing of the teachers per
mitting such course. They merely listen attentive
ly to the instructions giien,and if they choose, take
notes for future use : The object being, not to
to exhibit them belore . the public in the character
of mere pupils, but to elevate them in the eyes of
all, and in reality as members of one of the most
useful and respectable profeasions, congregated for
mutual improvement.
The Institute, however, being a new thing among
us, we do not yet posses the experience and skill
requisite to conduct it Hence, instructions for
the one now proposed will necessarily come from
abroad. One accomplished Teacher has according
ly been invited from Massachusetts and another
from Ohio, in both of which States these institut
tions are frequent and well understood. To these
probably one or two others will be added, so that
there shall be no lack of instruction. Hereafter
Institutes may be held without such aid, there be
ing sufficient talent among the Teachers of the
county to conduct them, when the mode of so do
ing shall have been once exhibited.
The branches selected both for e,xplanation of
their principles and illustration in the mode of
teaching willbe Orthography, Reading, Etymology,
Grammar, Geography with map drawing, History,
Writing and Arithmetic. The exercises will be in
terspersed .kith vocal music.
During the evening addresses and Lectures, on
subjects connected with Education, will be de
livered by metnbers of the Institute and by citizens
of the city and county. Discussions will also take
place.
The Governor of the Commonwealth and the Su
perintendent of Common Schools and other distin
guished persons, have consented to visit the Insti
tute,during the week, in order to encourage and
sustain its members in their endeavors to benefit
the noble cause of general education.
The citizens of Lancaster ' with noble hospitality,
have already in large numbers offered to entertain
Teachers from the body of the county; so that the
Committee now feel justified in announcing that the
professional members of the Institute shall be at
no other expense while here than that of contribu
ting to the necessary expenses of the Institute,
which, if there be a full attendance, may not ex
ceed one dollar from each Teacher.
The Institute will be held in FULTON HALL, a
room - admirably adapted for the purpose, and cepa
,
ble of seating a large audience.
A committee will be in attendance at 10 o'clock
A. M.. on Monday the 24th inst. in the Hall to en
rol the names of members and assign them lodg
legs ; at 2 P. M. of the same day the regular exer
cises will commence and continue till the following
Friday evening or till noon on• Saturday, as shall
be found most expedient.
Such are the ojects and arrangements of the
proposed Institgte. It now remains for the Teach
ers of Lancaster county to determine by their pres
ence or absence whether the projeet shall succeed
or fail. THOS. H. BURROWES,

BOUND FOR THE WEST
A Fine Rockingham Farm for Sale
'II I .LIE subscriber being determined to remove to
A_ the West, offers for sale, privately, the Farm
on which he resides, situated five miles east of
Harrisonburg, and one and a half miles east .of
Taylor's Springs, and lying on both sides of the
Rockingham Turnpike, leading from Harrisonburg
to Stanardeville, and lying on both sides of the
Keezeltown road, running up and down the Valley,
and one mile south of Keezeltown. Tot is situated
within half a mile of a good Merchant M ill, Saw
Mill, Tannery, .itc. It adjoins the lands of Messrs.
Jonathan Peale, David Eiler, and others, and
CONTAINS 314 ACRES,
150 or 160 Acres of which is cleared and in a good I
state of cultivation ; some 15 or 20 acres is good
Meadow, and more can be made. it desired. The
remainder is well timbered.
The improvements are, a large frame Dwelling
House, containing 11 rooms, with a good Kitchen,
(nearly new) adjoining Loomhouse, Smokehouse,
carriage house, corn house, and all other necessary
out-houses. The barn is somewhat out of repair.
There is a fine spring of water, and also a good
Dairy near the House.
This is a good situation for a blacksmith and wa
gon-maker ; and the wagonmakers shop and
blacksmith's shop are both here, and have been
carried on for a number of . years. There are also
two other Dwelling Houses to suit both ' ,
shops.l l
There are two other Dwelling Houses
on different portions on the Farm.
This Farm would suit very well to be divided, if
desired. There is a fine young Orchard near the
main Dwelling House, containing ninety Apple
Trees of excellent winter and summer Fruit, be
sides Cherry and Peach Trees. There are al.o
never-failing springs of excel.ent water on differ
ent parts of the place, and stock can have access
to water from every field on the place. The Land
is well adapted to all kinds of grain, clover, timo
thy, and other grass. This is one of the most plea
sant places to live in the Valley of Virginia. It
would make a very fine situation for a Farm, as the
house fronts both the Rockingham Turnpike and
Keezeltown road.
Also, another Tract of Woodland, lying It miles
east of the other Farm, containing 192 ACRES,
adjoining the lands of Messrs. Sam uel Ermin, Geo
Nicholas, and others.
The above property is now in market, and a
bargain may be obtained, as I am determined to
sell. I forbear a more minute description, as farm
ers desirous of purchasing will of course examine
for themselves. Terms very reesonable. and pos
session given at any time to snit the purchaser.

The holders of the obligations of the raid Compa

Of the Board of Directors of the Fanners'
Mutual Insurance Company, at the Annual
Meeting of the said Company, on the 25th
day of December, B. D. 1852.
In making this, their annual communication
to the Members of the " Farmers' Mutual In
surance Company " it is a source of high grati
fication to the Board, as it doubtless will be to
the Members, that nothing has occurred during
the past year, to require an elaborate or special
report from the Board of Directors. The losses
sustained by the Company have been small,
and the means in the hands of the Directors
have been found sufficient to defray all losses
and expenses, without levying any additional
tax, with the exception perhaps of a small bal
ance due to the Treasurer, as will be shown
by the report of the Treasurer, hereunto ap
pended. The present Organization and By.
laws of the Company, have been found sufficient
to carry out the objects and intentions for
which the Company was organized, and the
Directors find no reason to recommend or sug
gest any alterations or additions at this time.
During the past year. eighty-three new policies have
been issued on properties, amounting in the aggregate
to $149 259

A considerable portion of the policies cancel

On the night succeeding the 30th of May
last, the Barn of John Kame, of West Hemp
field twp , was destroyed by fire. The said
pt operty having been insured in the "Farmer's

under an order from the President, proceeded
to view the premises, and reported the damage
at $350 three-fourths of which, being $262.60,
was paid by the Treasurer, out of the funds of

during the past year, that has come to the
knowledge of the Directors.

To meet this, it is known that there is in the
hands of the Collectors the sum of 151.37
which has not yet been paid into the Treasury. 80.77
and there Is some yet to collect ; the precise amount of
which has not been ascertained. in consequence of
some of the Collectors not having returned their
Duplicates and made final settlement, but which it is
supposed, will nearly if not quite cover the deficiency
of 880,77 as above exhibited.
The negligence of some of the members to
pay their quotas of tax with punctuality has
become a source of annoyance to the Directors,
as well as an act of injustice to the members
generally, and will be no longer tolerated.—
All those who have not as yet paid the taxes
heretofore assessed, will be proceeded against
according to law,-if the arrears are not paid
immediately after - the publication of this re
port.
They must pay their dues, or forfeit their
policies. The liabilities of the Company should
be, and must be punctually paid ; but
this cannot be done, unless the members
are prompt and punctual in the payment
of their quota of tax; and the credit of the
Company would have suffered, ere now, but for
the energy and liberality of the Ireasurer,
who frequently advanced his own money,
when the funds of the Company in his hands
were inadequate.
It is therefore hoped, that all who are yet
in arrears, will make payment immediately,
and thereby save themselves from the payment
of costs, and the Directors from the disagreea
ble necessity of resorting to compulsory
measures, as no further indulgence can be
given

CHERRY PECTORAL
For the rapid Cure of
COUGHS, COLDS, HOARSENESS,
BRONCHITIS, WHOOPING-COUGH,
CROUP, ASTHMA, AND
CONSUMPTION.
MANY years or trial, instead of impairing the
pulic confidence in this medicine, has won
for it an appreciation and notoriety by far exceed
ing the most sanguine expectations of its friends.
Nothing but its intrinsic virtues and the unmistaka
ble benefit conferred on thousands of sufferers
could originate and maintain the reputation it en
joys. While . many inferior remedies thurst upon
the community, have failed and been discarded,
this has gained friends by every trial conferred ben
efits on the afflicted they can never forget, and p:-c
-duced cures too numerous and too remarkable to
be forgotten.. '
While It is fraud on the public to pretend that
any one medicine will infallibly cure—still there is
abundant proof that the CHERRY PECTORAL does
not only a general thing, but almo-t invariably cu-es
the maladies for which it is employed.
As time makes these frieze wider and better
known, this medicine has gradually become the
bast reliande of the afflicted, from the log
cabin of the American Peasant, to the pat
aces of European Kings. Throughout this entire
country, in every. State, city, and almost every
hamlet it contains, Cherry Pectoral is known as the
best remedy extant for disca..es of the Throat and
Lungs, and in many foreign countries, it i- coming
to be extensively used by their most intelligent
Physicians. In Great Britain, France and Germa
ny, where the medical sciences have reached their
highest perfection, Cherry Pectoral is introduced,
and in constant use in the Armies, Hospitals, Alms
Houses, Public Institutions, and in domestic prac
tice, as the surest remedy their attending Physi
cians can employ for the more dangerous affections
of the lungs. Also in milder cases, and for chil
dren it is safe, pleasant and effectual to cure. In
fact, some of the most flattering testimonials we
receive have been from parents who have found it
efficacious in cases particularly incidental to child
hood.
- • •
The Cherry Pectoral is manufactured by a prac
tical Chemist, and every ounce of it under his own
eye, with invariable accuracy and care. It is seat
ed with care. It is sealed and protected by law
from counterfeits, consequently can be relied on as
genuine without adulteration.
We have eifideavored here to furnish the commu
nity with a medicine of such intrinsic superiority
and worth as should commend itself to their con
fidence—a remedy at once safe, speedy and effect
ual,'which this has by repeated and countless trials
proved itself to be; and trust by great care in pre
paring it with chemical accuracy, of uniform
strength to afford Physicans a new agent on which
they can rely for the best results,
and the afflicted
with a remedy that will do for th em all that medi
cine can do. •
