Pursuant to notice, n public meeting was
] lt .|,l in Heverly settlement school-house, Over
on Suturday evening Dee. Ist 1855,
f,.r the i impose of an interchange of senti
-I L .nt on the subject of Common Schools, in
cmneetion with the County Superintendent, on
, IM ,tiou. \\"ni. llottensteiujwas appointed I'resi
and Kli Heverly and Owen MeCann,
Secretaries.
Vt'ter some discussion by Wm. Walt man
~m i James Heverly and others, tle following
revolutions were introduced by Wm. Waltman
. ~u motion of Josiah Keinbolt, were adopt
",'j | )V a large mojoritv, as expressive of the
sollS c of the meeting.
llfstlml, That in the opinion of this meet
i,„r much of the law "For the regulation
sU iii eontinuance of a system of education by
< Vminoii Schools" as authorizes the School
directors in each County of the Common
\Veiilt!i to meet in convention at the seat of
Justice in the said Counties, to elect County
Superintendent, ought not be repealed, till it
1,0 tried fairly for a term of not less than
three years. _ , , .
[{rsi Iced, That in ourj opinion, experience
lias alreadv demonstrated that such an officer
necessary, for a certain number of years
to co-operate with the School Directors of the
several townships, to explain the law, point
out the duties of Directors, examine and re
joet deficient and ignorant teachers ; which,
in our opinion, has a tendency to facilitate and
elevate our Common Schools.
[{.•silccil, That as the commonwealth pays
our Cmmtv Superintendent a salary to assist
u* in the promotion of our Common Schools,
we are not so liberal as to reject his help, and
„ot so enlightened as to reject the spontaneous
iuvtructions conferred by our Commonwealth.
Resolved. That, knowing that our Superin
tendent lias a very large County to travel thro',
ami manv schools and teachers to inspect,
< ? ini nmiallv. cannot visit the schools as often
a , he would if the distance would admit,
Jltsohrd, That we would not by any meaus
rnjue.it our Superintendent not to pay us any
more visits, but to visit us as often as possible
a- we finnlv believe that by his aid we can yet
uo something to advance the Common School
.rstem. |
/(-■: deed. That we most heartily approve of
the plan of a " Uuiforin Tax system through
out the State'' to raise a school fund, as has
been, and is being put in operation by Mr.
(O VEU, and we pledge ourselves that we will
use onrbest endeavors in conjunction with our
p, unity Superintendent to have the same be
come a law.
Resulted, That we have full confidence in
tin? ability, and profound resjiect that our
SupcrintcMKloiit has, with regard to his duty. |
Res deed. That these resolutions be publish

THE AMERICAN MINISTER IN* LONDON. —The
subjoined letter was addressed by Mr. IJii
ehanan, our Minister in England, to the Times
licwsjirijier.detiying the statement which had
been put forth by that paper of assurauces
.i eii to the Jlritisli Government by the Ameri
ca' Minister, when the war first broke out in
t;c Mast, of the sympathy and support of our
•ioveriuneut and pcojile, and that the I nited
States were willing to make the quarrel of
Knglawl their own, and ready to aid her with
thousands of stout hearts and brawny arms.
There were abundant reasons why nobody on
tlii- -ide the Atlantic, we presume, gave any.
ercilencc to so improbable a statement, which
indeed carried contradict ion on its face ; yet
"t was proper that the minister should meet
sn positive and grave an allegation with the
prompt and explicit contradiction which is con
tained in the annexed note addressed to the
Times, but which it appears that print hud the
unfairness to refuse to publish :
"The American Minister presents his COUP
plimeuts to the editors of tlie Times, and as
-ares them that they have been "misinformed"
with respect to the expressions and condu t
uttributed to him in the leading article of this
morning. Always mindful of the neutrality
"f his Government, whicli he fully approves,
na- with deep rcgre-t that he learned as he
lir-t did from Washington, that attempts were
itin the United States to recruit soldiers
f r the British army ; because lie felt eonli
•lvnt that tile-'' attempts would tend to weaken
T h" friendly relations between the two coui:-
■ which i: has been his ardent desire, ever
■ •te his arrival in England, to cherish and
promote.
The American Minister can, of course,
f nter into no discussion in the public journals
questions Ix'twcen the two Governments, or
• ite what is or what is not contained in any'
' 'irespondenee which may have arisen out of
ijuostions : but lie has felt it due liotli
to tlie Times and himself to make this prompt
correction.

Ov HIS TKACK.—A orrcsponden t of The
" fviriul, writing from New-York, tells
the following: '
Aa incident transpired here last week that
- mmle iiene talk among the parties who
jhid knowledge of the matter. A lady
''a the .State of Maine came to this city
' her way to California. She had as arms
revolvers ami a bowie-knife. The con
'r purchased her a ticket in the Califor-
! f a steamer and she left in the vessel at noon.
'T story is this: A short time since her
'"hand obtained [tosscssion of all her wealth,
' "everted all he could turn into gold, and
'h'serted his family, took a ship and start
'l rir tlie lan,i of gold, round Cape Horn.—
'''l this is not the worst; lie took with him
' male not his wife. Injured and maddened,
■*has started after licr recreant lord;
,ro!u love, but from hate ; not to recover
'"p-dou of hq- absconding husband, but to
"'*4i'luster to him a deserved chastisement;
' lo take him back, but to shoot him and
Whipanion. Wind, weather and steam
l ' ie la, b' will reach Callifornia
jj' at in advance of her absconding mate.
„,' v " 110 doubt be rather surprised to meet
j' 'J'hip on the California landing; and

*THK EMPRESS EUGENE. —The Paris corres
pondent of the Courier des Etats I 'nix, speak
ing of the French Empress, says : "ller inte
resting condition is becoming more and more
apparent. When similarly circumstanced,
some ladies endeavor to conceal the fact from
the public ; but Queens, on the contrary,
should let it be apparent, so that there may
be no doubt concerning the prospect of an heir
to the throne, as lias hapjieued more than once.
Modesty should give way in such a case to the
interests of the State.
Fi.orn ron THE CRlMEA. —Within the past
two or three weeks some 20,000 barrels of
flour have been purchased !>y a firm in this
city for the British government Its destina

[For the Bradford Reporter.]
DIKO—In Rorkford. Illinois, Xovember Ist, 1855, of ty
phoid fever, Mrs. LEMIRA S. MYER, (relict of the late
WM. M VKH, Es<|.) formerly of Wysox.
The snows of sixty-five winters had fallen upon her head,
and as the changing years went by. each day did she he
came more and more like the " meek and lowly One," at
whose feet she loved to sit.
Oh ! beautiful was the Christian's life—and how sweet
like her to fall asleep in Jesus' arms,and awake in heaven.
The Death-angel comes, and his dark shadow near us,
Shuts out from our hearts the glad sunlight of earth ;
His rustling wings round a loved form are folded,
A place is left vacant beside the home hearth.
Ye weep for the mother, who long lmtli been spared yon,
The best and the truest friend Con hath e'er given ;
At her knee was whispeivd the low prayer of childhood,
And there ye first learned of a Father in Heaven.
It grieves us to see the soft eye of affection
Grow dim, as the night of the grave stealcth on ;
And weak nature faints, when the sigh of the dying
1- l ist in this heart-crushing sentence," She's gone."
The bright eye of youth, and the stern brow of manhood,
And woman's fair cheek, are to-day wet with tears,
An aged one, too, weeps an only dear sister,
On Mother's calm face a new sorrow appears—
"Tis hard to look down where the green sods are falling,
So heavy and damp, on the sleeper's cold breast,
And feci that the requiem sounding above her,
Can wake her no more from this sweet dreamless rest.
Her locks had grown white lieneath time's frosty finger,
And lines of deep sorrow upon her brow lay ;
The roses of summer had bloomed in her pathway,
And winter's chill tempests oft darkened her way.
Then why should we mourn ? Her long journey is ended,
The weary one rests with lier Savior to-day.
With angels behold! she bows down to adore him,
And soft hands have wiped the last tear-drops away :
Ah ! yes. she is gone ; while the sun's setting glories
Yet gilded the clouds in the rose-tinted sky,
The pearly gates opened, while fair forms descended,
And sweet voices whispered her summons to die.
Then cherubs, with wings bathed in heavenly odors,
And wet with the bright dew that sparkles above,
To mansions of bliss welcomed home the free spirit,
And strung their soft lyres to an anthem of love.
The frail flowers of hope that once faded around her,
Are found blooming fresh in those beautiful bowers ;
With husband and children, with friends re-united,
How joyfully now pass Eternity's hours.

"FISH AND PHILOSOPHY."
DIl. JOHN M'INTOSII,
Would inform the inhabitants of Bradford county
tlrnt he rcsiiectfully solicits ;<X) silbscrUiers for his local
work entitled " FISH A\l) PHILOSOPHY, or Sketches
made During a Short Sojourn in Northern Pennsylvania."
The hook will consist of from 250 to o(Mi page*, I'Jmo.,
and will l>e bound in embossed muslin. The price will l>e
fIJK). As the work was not written to vindicate
any particnlar theory, or to advance any particular inte
rest, it is difficult to say what it aims at—further than to
help while away a leisure hour or two, in what the Au
thor hopes, not unprofitable reading.
The pages are chicly devoted to descriptions of local
scenery ; incidents wlnle Trouting on theSehrader branch;
literary criticisms and reminiscences ; conversations, de
velopments of local character, poetry and philosophical
reflections.
As the publication of the hook is not a qnestion of
bread, the author can use the liberty of speaking plain. —
In the first place, then, lie cannot afford to publish the
hook unaided—nor would he if he could ; for the simple
reason, lie is unwilling to shoulder the responsibility of
committing a—possibly—poor Jook to the world. Me
therefore seeks to make a corptffate Concern of it, and
thus share with the subscribers the odium of failure,
should it fail. It is a purely gratuitous matter, gentle
men, sign, or not sign. In the second place, the' author
is unwilling to have liis stock of books added to, by too
many hundred copies of a work that failed ti> redeem the
price if its publication ; neither docs he desire the horror
of witnessing the awfuj spectacle of an auUnia-fe.of what
cost Him so much pains and time to creitd ;—for lio Cer
tainly would eoiniiiit to tbe fiatues wbjf remained unsold
of the edition, should they remain too long on his hands.
He is determined to pay the publisher on the receipt of
the edition, should it bo printed, asking no favors ; and if
COO subscribers can be had, he w ill do so. He can afford,
however, to wait, should the GOO refuse to come to the
rescue. The MS will not diminish in value. It will re
main as it has done, cherished by the owner, as was cher
ished and loved '-the poor man's one little ewe lamb, that
was unto liini as a d.Higher." The author will ask 110 one
to undertake to publish it on the strength of its merits:
perhaps from pride, perhaps from a prophetic apprehen
sion of its lack of merit. Time—perhaps—will determine
if lie did well to he influenced by the latter consideration.
The author will further say, that should the desired num
ber of subscriptions be obtained, he will feel tempted to
promise an embellished frontispiece,enclosing a medallion
likeness of the principal character, l)r. Plum. And should
a socoud edition follow, he—the author—will exert ali'thc
influence he can command to secure for the original snb
serilicrs a lock of that distinguished individual's hair ; as
thank Heaven, he is appreciative, and, judging fromfhis
antecedents, the author lias 110 doubt that Plum would
gladly wear a wig for a whole year, to have the pleasure
of furnishing to his friends so iuteieeWng a souvenir.
The publication of the book, then, is dependent on the
receipt.of GOO subscribers, and one mouth will be allowed
for u. "cs to be given in. If, at theexplration of that time
only one person has subscribed, or any other number be
tween that acd GOO—unless very closely approximating it
—the book will iivt of course be expected to sec the light.
But, if the entire number he obtained, tluise who have
signed, will, in three months from the closing of the sub
scription lists, be supplied with ft ropy, or copies, as they
may have ordered.
Subscription lists will Le opened on Monday next,at all
the stores, and at the P. (). in the borough ; and at C. H.
HFUKICK'*, at Atlieus. At Burlington, there will he one
at Alessrs. iaiNU A MKKKY'S store, and at Ulster Mr. Jou>
MATHKB , and at Monroe, Mr. KKYMOLU PlllNSinr, will act
as agents. Others may be authorized.
