Burrows, Superinten. dent of the Common Schools of Pennsylva nia, has been handed to us for publication. It oontaip? many facts of interest to a great majority of our readers and gives them an op portunity of geeing what our Superintendent has been doing during the last month. We gladly give it a place in our columns, and beg leave to suggest to the Suneriutendent that be send ue a copy, each month, of hie re port : Hoic. THOMAS 11. BURROWS : Sir i— ln accor dance with your instructions, the following report for the month of February, 1861, is fespecfully submitted: District Examinations None this month. Examined since the commencement, 225 ; li censed, 191; annulled, 3. Number of Schools Visited—l have visited 48 schaols tuis month—32 once, and 16 the econd time—devoting a half day to the for mer, and about an hour to the latter; visit ing 3 er 4 daily ; preferring such as are on the eve of closing. Number of Institutes &c. Attended. —I at tended 2 Distrb t Institutes, and 1 school exhibition, at which place 1 took occasion to address large audiences. Whole Number of Dags devoted to Official Duties. — 1 have devoted the whole time, ex cept Sundays, to official duties. Whole Number of Official Letters Written. I have written 10 official letters. Corre spondents cannot be promptly attended to, because 1 am seldom at home. Chief Difficulties Encountered.—The great est hindrances to progress are, a want of uni frm text books, a lack of interest on the part *f some parents and directors in school af fairs ; the apathy of many teachers in atten ding Institutes, and the Sa;urday teaching ■ til! insists! oo in a few of tne districts. New Measures Adopted to Improve the School.—l have endeavored to introduce mor al instruction into every school, also compo sition, book-keeping, and better npedes of teaching than those hitherto in use. Educational Meetings this Current Month. None but the district Insii'utes and a few school exhibitions whioh I will not fail to at iend, I have made arrangements with Prof. Thomas, of Pine Grove; Prof. White, of Bellefonte, and Prof. Patterson of B -alsfcurg, to take charge of Normal clashes this Sum mer. My visits, this month, have been princi pally among the German District*,, and il I mm permitted to judge by the marked respect and hospitality everywhere given me, I have every tea oo to believe that this class of cur citizens is no less favorable to educiaioa ana the Superinteadency than any other. The D< parturient will be plessod to learn that our female teachers (2'2 iu number) are doing well —living ample evidence that they, too, eaa teach adults as well a small pbil dien. From the statistics before uitj I am con vince! that at no tiuaa since the creation of the office of County Superintendent have the people been mare reconciled with it than at present, I have not tho vanity to a tribute this tp any efforts I have made, It is Ice in the main, to the energy, "kill and co-ope ration of the majority of our Llistricts and Teachers. THOS. lIOL AITAN, Co. Sup't. Boalsburg, March 2. 1861. Tilt River, Rafting:, &c Last Thursday the water in the river commenced rising and the next Hioinrng the freshet had reached a good rnaning state. On Friday " rafting in" was enmmencd. but tho work was not pushed as vigorsu-ly us usual. Qa Sunday and Mon day a number of rafts parsed down, but on Monday night the atmosphere grew cold and yosterday morning some snow fell, giving a sudden check to running of rafts, ar.d caus ing the water .BO fall rcpiq-y. Tnere is DO telling at this time what prices will be ; but there i no doubt that an effort is being made by eastern speculators to control the market and reduce the rates as much as possible.— Titis has induced some of our lumbermen to back their rafts, and unices thore is a proßpeot of paying prices, it is quite proba ble tfeat a .considerable quantity-of the tim ber now eu the river banks will not be mov ed at all. To-day it is storiniDg and freezing hard. Raftsman's Journal, March &th. The Oil Fever The oil fever is raging fiercely ia eli portions ef the State. Companies are being formed in all quarters to engage in the oil business in the Western portion of our gsod old Commonwealth, and the people gen erally speak of the oil regions as a vast field of speculation where a fortune is made in a day. There is, ef course, a great deal exag geration in many of these oil stories which we bear jepeated daily ; it beiDg such a smooth subject that the stories slip out very large, at times. There is a company in this eeunty composed of some of cur most relia ble men, but we have not heard what they have realized from tieir endeavors, whether they have " struck ile" or not. We wish ibem abundant success in their enterprise. Night School- A night eeheol is in successful eperation in our town at present, under di rection of Miss Elizabeth Blakely, a well known and experienced teacher. The branch es taught are, Geography and Grammer.— We think this night school a good institution and if many parents yrould send their chil dren to to this school at night instead of per mitting them to spend their time on the greets they would receive the thanks of these children in after years, and have the pleas ure of seeing tbem grow up useful and iatel* igent citizens instead of rowdies and rascals. Kicked by a Horse On evening, ft son of Solomon Derr, of Cheapside, was al most killed by a horse. He was engaged in doing something in the stable, when he was kicked by the horse in such a manner as to render him insensible. When found, he was lying in close proximity to the horse's heels, and all covered with b!,;o/J. His face is cut in a frightful manner. Change of Clothing—A Caution A medical journal giyes some timely advice which we ' commend to all our readers : " Don't be in j haste to put off woolen garments in spring.— j Many a ' bad cold,' (who ever saw a good one?) rheumatism, lumbago, and other aches and pains, are lurking in the first sunshiny days, ready to pounce upon the incautious viotircs who have laid aside their defensive | armor of flannel. Any sudden changes in ; the system are attended wi;h more or less of ! danger, but the body can accommodate itaelf ; to almost any condition, provided it be as ; surned gradually. The use of flannel guards against sudden change of temperature. In a warm day, when perspiration flows freely, if it be allowed to pass off rapidly, the quick evaporation carries with it much heat from the body, and a chill may be produced, fol lowed by the derangement of some function, as a cold in the head, or unnatural discharge from the bowels. Flannel contains much air in its meshes, and is therefore a slow con ductor of cold or heat. Evaporation pro ceeds from it more slowly than from 'cotton or linen, bence its excellence as a fabric for clothing. Many persons wear it next to the ; skin the year round, and find it a shield against prevalent complaints in summer. No general rule can be given as to this ; it must depend upon the constitution and employ ; meat of the individual. In all cases, howev er, flinnel should not be laid aside until the weather is settled permanently, warm—in j this latitude usually after the first of June. ! The change should be made in the morning, never in the after part of the day, when tire energies are partly abated, and the air is is usually growing cooler. Many a consump tion has beau contracted by undressing for an evening party." Gone to Conference On last Monday, Rev. Thos. Sherlock, Pustoi of the M. E. Church, left our town ft r Chamberßburg, to attend the annual sitting uf the Baltimore Confe rence. During the last ye.'.r Mr. Saerloek has labored faithfully in tbip community, and has bpcn instrumental in gathering many into the church. On Sunday evening he gave his congrega tion some items of information concerning his labors, which will be of interest to our readers : During the year he aifended eleven funer als ; baptized fifteen children and six adults; lif eu three special ci llections— the collec tion f r the Tract Soeiety, which anfl.untrd to nine dollars; the Missionary collection, which amounted to abeut eighty-five dol'urs ; and the Conference collection, umouDting to about twenty dollars. Ha stated, also, that there were one 1 un dred and forty six members, and fifty pro bationers in the station. And that there were in the Sabbath School connected with the charge, twenty-fiye Officers and Teahers and about one hundred and seventy scht lars, and a Library composed of some three hun dred vo'umes. Who stole oar Shawl ? About three weeks *ga some scsundrel, whose presence would disgrace the Eastern Penitentiary, did felo. nioudy and burglariously enter the Centre Democrat tffics, aud tako therefrom, without leave, a certain large wnofon shawl generally used to protect our body from the chilling blasts of winter. Now, a man who would steal from the church is a bad man ; a man who would steal from a poor widow is a wi r*e man ; but a mau who would steal from a printer is a rascal of so deep a dye that words fail to portray his character. He wo'ld steal a pan of milk from a blind kittOD ; take the copper coins from the closed eyes of a deceased colored gentleman ; takp the last crust from a starving child, and spank the child because it was not a loaf; rau de'r his grandmother fur the gold in her plugged teeth ; steal the screws of his fathers cqffio, afvi seta his bones for ivory, And if you'd tnke a fine tooth comb, Aud rake down all creation, You co uld'dt fi,ad a meaner man la all her mighty nations. We did not notice this theft sooner, because we thought the theit would see the error of ids way and return the property to its right ful owner ; but up to the present time we have heard nothing of it. We will give a liberal reward to any person who will inform us where it may be found. Godey for April As regular as the month itself, comes this excellent magazine. Each numher appears batter and more beautiful than it? predecessor. Tee most magnificent Fashion Plates adorn it monthly—this fea ture alone renders it of untold value to the fttiy sex. It contains, also, a most euparb Steel Engraving, and-the character of the literature found iu it is a recommendation to it in any community. It is worth, to any lady, more than twenty dollars worth of the impure and ridiculous noyels published and read to such an alarming extent in our coun try, and yet the subscription price is only throe dollars, Address, L. A. Gudej, 323, Chestnut Street, Philadelphia. Wanted. We want wood. While we write, wintery winds whistle wrathfully without. We wish we weie warm. Without wood we won't work ; we would willingly work were we warm. We wax warm when we woik with wood; without wood we wax wrathy when we work, while winds'whistle woefully without. We wish we were wealthy ; we would work, well warmed with wood. Why who would work without wood? We would'nt, well ws would'nt, would we? We wonder wh would ! Opposition to Rarey. Mr. Calvin Smith, a colored man, from Wtlliamsport, is paying a professional visit to our town in the capacity of a horse tamer. We are told by those who have seen some of his exhibitions of skill, that he is quite efficient in bis management of the horse. Let those who have yioitus animals bring them along immediately, apd not wait for the celebrated Barey. THEI CSNTRS For the Democrat. Vocal Music- PINE IIALL Cnußcn March 7th 1851 At the close of a brief though pleasant term of instruction in vocal music under Mr. Jpsoph G. Neff; the Swartzvillp Singing School convened at the Pine llall Ltithern and German Reformed church on Thursday the 7th inst. After spending the day, and the evening in singing and other musical ex ercises, the following resolution were offered and adopted by the school: Resolved, that we heartily endorse the old but nevertheless true adage. The tranquil izing and refining inflence of vocal music has c larms to soothe the savage breast. Resolved, that we have undiminished con fidence in the requisite qualifications of our faithful and persevering teacher and congrat ulate ourselves on having procured his ser vice during the past winter. Resolved, that we recommend Mr. Neff as a teacher worthy the patronage of any re spectable community ; and cordially solicit his sorvises as teacher at the opening of the next term of singing. Resolved, that our thanks are duo to the trustees and members of the Luthern and German Reformed Church for the use of their church building during the day. Resolved, that we tender our thanks to the committee of order for the services with which they favored the school. The Zouaves- While :n Harrisburg on the 220 d of February, we saw among the hun dreds of soldiers present, some two or three compauies of Zbuaves, and we must confess their manners arid appearance tickled our fancy considerably. Their tight jacseta and loose breeches, together with their low slip pers, gave them at once the appearance of a soldier and a elown, wlile their easy and graceful movensects displayed much agility, and betokened much practice. We sec in many of our exchanges, published in differ ent sections of our country, notices of the fact that Zmavc companies arc being formed in many places. Any person who knows anything about the late war in Europe, must ; certainly acknowledge the fact that the Zuu j ave is mush superior, in actual service, to the j common soldier, for many reasons, and this 1 being the esse, it is certainly advisable that such companies should be formed. Why may we not, then, have a Zouave company in Bellefonte? From what we saw of the unitcrm, we judge that it is cheaper by far j than the uniform in general use in this coun ! try. Who will make a move ia this (Elec tion ? Grand Reception. Oo last Friday afternoon .Mr. Win. Montgomery and his fair bride | returned home from ti eir "Honey Moon vis- I it," and in the evening they were visited by I large numbers of their friends. The Band 9ereaaded them at 9 o'clock, and accepted an invitation to "walk in" and congratulate their brother musician aud partake of the re freshments prepared for the occasion. The ycuTg couple greeted their friends with smiles, and happiness was written upon their countenances. May it always be so. The Eoalsburg Brass Band- While in Boals burg the other evening, we paid a visit to j tho room of the Brass Band, composed of ; sumo twelve or fourteen ycung men of Boals ; burg. They peiform remarkably well fur ! the time they have been practicing. They I intend to give a Concert in Boalsburg in a | week or two, and we have no dt übt that the I citizens of Harris will patronize, liberally, this fine musical organization. The Auditors Report. List week we pub lished the Auditors Report for the year 1860 for the last time. For three crfour weeks it tilled up our paper so as to exclude the pub. lieatio.u n,f our local matter. Now that we are through with that, wo expect to ,b,e able to give our readeis the usual ameunt of local information. | Falling of a Mill. On last Monday a week ago, a portion of Mr. Brockorhoff's mill at Roopsburg, gave way and fell to the lower floor, spilling out miscelaneousl.y, about twelve hundred bushels of grain. The dam age, however, was net very great, the loss being only about filty dollars. Desecrating the Sabbath. On last Sunday afternoon we saw some boys of our town en gaged in playing half. This game is a Sue, manly and pleasant exercise ; but should be engaged in, on some other day than the Sab bath. It looks badly, boys. New Arrival. Another large supply of cheap clothing has just been received at the .Cloth* ing Establishment of A. Sternberg $ Co., which is being disposed of at prices to suit the tim.es. Hand Crushed. Y/e are informed that a serious accident occurred at the Spring Creek Axe Factory, one day this week. Mr. Da vid Barlet was.engaged in doing something about the machinery, when his hand, was caught and badly crushed. A Rare Brand. We received a fine spec imen of a lot of cigars just received and for sale by John Iloffec. They are the finest ci gars we have smoked for a long .time. Call and try them. He will sell low for cash. Convalescent. Our fellow townsman Mr. Wan. Gahagan, who has been very ill for a long time, has became so much better as to be able to appear on the street again. Auditors Notice. Evan M.

Often originating incarc les-ness, or sedentary habits ; it is regarded as a slight disorder of too little consequence to excite' anxiety, while in realitv it is tho precursor and companion of many of tho most fatal ami danger ous diseases, aud unless early eradicated it will bring the sufferer to an untimely grav:. Among the lighter ovils of which costivencsa is the usual attendant aro Headache, Colic, Rheumatism/ Foul Breath, Piles and pthcrs cf Jikp uaiiire, while a long train of frightful diseases, such as Malignant Fevers Ahcesses, Dysentery, Di irrhoea, Dyspep • sia, Apoplexy, Epilepsy, Paralysis, Hysteria, Hypochondriasis, Melancholy and Insanity, first indicate their presouce in system by this alarming symptom, Not unfrequent'.y the dis eases named originate in Constipation, but take' on an independent existence unless the cykh fs 'erad icated in an early stage.
