ANCIENT NOTiNTETT AND 813TERSTI-
Tlotrit REGARD FOR COCKS AND
COCE-FIGHTING.
Last, though not least, the Game
fowls—supposed to be from India
and are noted for 'their undaunted
courage and salacious proclivities.
Spetchley enumerated fourteen varie
ties of them, ,with names unintelligi
ble to the uninitiated in the sporting
ring, - but among which the "black
reds'' have been the favored variety.
Wherever they may be they are
" cock of the walk," and autocrat of
the poultry yard. When Themisto
cies, a - distinguished-Grecian general,
went to battle against the Persian
army, - he observed a timidity in his
soldiers, and in harangue, to in
cite their courage, he said: "Ob
serve with ,what intrepid valor the
. cock fights; while he has no motive
Tut victory to impel him; while you
have to contend for • your religion
and your liberty, for your wives and
.your children, and for the tombs of
your ancestors," which so inspired
the Athenian soldiers that they ob..
tained the most memorable triumph
on !record ; and, 'in commemoration
of which the Greeks established the
annual game of 'cock-fighting, the
practice of which soon spread over
into Abodes, and eventually over all
-the civilized world. For a long time
it was pursued in Europe as a loyal
pastime, and was sanctioned-by law
and,eustom ; but since the early part
of the last century the practice has
been chiefly confined to China, the
d_iliillipine-Islands, Java, the Isthmus
iNf Darien,, and to ! the dissolute of
Europe and America. The' cock oc
cupied a conspicuOus place at, the
shows of, the -Greeks. and Romans.
llk cttligy was engraved upon their
models and coins, and he was spe
cially dedicated to the Pagan Gods
. —A t)ollo, -- Mercury, Mars and Ezen
hipius--and be was also associated
pOlitkal and religious ceremo
nies.rom the association of the
crowing of the cock with St. Peter's
"denial of our Saviour, cock-fighting
w. s regarded as a legitimateamuse
ment about shrovtide—the time of
confession in the ..ancient Romisli
church, and was then so much in
vogue-at the public school that even
the school-masters furnished the boys
with cocks to fight, From - time im
, memorial this wakeful sentinel has
promptly proclaimed, with elaTion
voice, the dawn of day. During the
era of Superstitution and credulity
lie vas supposed tahave the power,
by crowing, of dismissing ghosts to
their'silent haunts in - deserted grave r
yards. Shakespear relates that when
the ghost of Hainlet's father was
making important ditclosures to his
Son, it heard the crowing of the
and announcing that it snuffed the
morning air, kit abruptly vanished
from liamlet's_sight, and left the half
of it> itragic `story untold. To the
crowing of the Cock at the eommemo
naive season of our Saviour's birth;
the same. author thus describes its
hidlowed influence :
way that ever against that season comes,
W.iorcin our Saviour's birth celebrated,
Tae bird of dawning singeth all night long;
And then, they say, no spirit walks abroad,
The iiighis are wllolesoine. Then no planets strike
No fairy takes; nor witch has power to harm;
so hallowed dud so gracious Is the time."
Within the. past qnarter,of a centu
'ry there has been a great rage in this
country for foreign breads of poultry.
The first importation was the tall,
mi!;•rareful Shanghais,whiehhad the
reputation of being extraordinary
layers,'. and consequently they corn
nuinded'falmlous prices. Since their
.day Av`e ,have importations of ' the
Spanishßlacks,lloudains,LaFleches,
Crewe Coers, Dorkings, Leghorns,
Bolton Greys, Partridge and Buff
Cochin Chinas, and, light and dark
. Brahams. To-all of which, in their
turn', have been imputed extraordina
ry properties, and, like the Shanghai,
Jerre conimanded high prices. Re
cently the light-eOlored Brahmas
have been quite popular, and bade
fair to supereede- all others, .on ac
count. of their large size and the
large size of their eggs ; but experi
ence has shown that they are great
gormandizers,..and will annually eat
more food than they. and their eggs
are worth ; that they do not attain
their growth for nearly two years;
that the partial nudity of their chick
ens R ; hen young makes them
. liable
to perish in inclement - weather. anr:
when full grown they are liable to
die suddenly from quick consump
'tion. The; Black Spanish are good
'layers, though they are not continu
ous layers,. and lay lar , re eggs ; lite,
their eg!7s are partially infertile, anti
their . chickens, like 'the Brahamas.
remain during a long period of their
growth, in a - state of partial nudity.
, Of the large breeds, the buff. colored
- _and partridge Cochin Chinas are the
• hardiest, though they don'i, lay so
large an egg as the Brahma, Black
Spanish, or Houdain. The Dorking
is large-sized in England, where it is
tire favorite fowl forits broad breast,
the. delicacy of its flesh, and its
. fecundity,- and weighs from seven to
nine pounds. But. it 'has degenerated
in size in our Southern States,Where ,
it is, nevertheless, the favorite fowl.
The llondain bears the same relation
to France that the 'Dorking does to
.F.ndaird,..and commence to lay very=
early in the season. Both it and the
Dorking have 'ten toes, or an extra
hind toe. From my observation, I
think - there are no better layers" than
the lloudains. The , Leghorns, tho'
small in size,-are said to be good lay
• ers.. The„Baratam hens are good lay
ers. Tout their eggs are small,.and if
the Ilamtani cock finds where they
lay he is apt to destroy their eggs.
The Game fowls are good layers and
liatehczrs, but, the Game hens are so
irritable and light each. other so i
tiereely over their broods as to kill
scone of their chi6kens in their bloody
coniliets.
I Neill not detain you in discussing
in dt4.til the comparatiVe qualities of
L' the different breeds of fowls; it would
' along occupy a volume. 1 think our
. are greatly misled, however,
regard to the relative properties
of fowls. Although some particular
; -,breels may generally be more fertile
than others, I have known cases
where some of those same breeds
were N'ery.moderate,.and others very
indifferent layers. As a general rule
small breeds are na t ure prolific than
la i4:e - ones. It is a law of nature that
large animals' are not fo . prcilific in
bra eding . as small ones. So that to
take fowls on the
. average there is not
Much to choose ': betweenthem. Upon
the whole I have come to the conclu
sion . .that as our common native
particulair,the Dominiques,
.are loth healthy and hardy, more
prolific, '!require less food and care,
and their flesh more delicate than
la i - er • ones, and aS their chickens
come to maturity the same season of

THOROUGHNEB3 IN OUR MYRON SCHOOL
• STUDIES
It is a lamentable fact that we find
many of out public men —yoliticians,
Lawyers, Ministers and Teachers--who
are deficient in some of the common
branches of learning. How would some
of the speeches of the would-be leaders of
our country appear in print if they were
reported precisely as delivered? How
many "true bills" for "murdering the
king's English," would be found against,
the and eloquent advocate at the bar of
justice, were it to appear in print, or be
listened to by the ordinary Otte? HoW
many of our Preachers of the Gospel
would be ashamed to see their own ser
mons in print, :.s delivered to their con
gregation, or as written by thermielves?
How many of the •men engaged in hilli
ness, ha : e no confidence in their own cal
culations, anti ask their bookkeeper, or .
one of their clerks, to make it for them ?
How many of the teachers of common
schools in Bradford county, cannot write a
half column for one of our county 'news
papers without making a dozen mistakes
in punctuation, use of capital letters, as
many more in orthography, and probably
more than that number of grammatical
errors? The answer, when honestly giv
en, mast be—Many.
. .
These men may be well versed in the
Law, Theology, Medicine, Teaching, or
in the business in which they are engag
ed; yet it goes to show that-our primary
or common schools are nit what they
should lie : there should be - more tho
roughness. If this lack of thoroughness
is so manifest in the professions, how does
it affect those whO have acquired nothing
outside of the common school ?
If those who have pursued - a course in
the higher branches, are_defective in the
common branches, those r ,vrbo have studied
nothing but the common branches, must
be still more defective in the common
branches, under the same system of com
mon schools. how can .we remedy this
defect? Parente and teaders must do
the work they must work . in unison.
The parent must teach the child habits of
thoroughness. Teach them at home, that
whatever they are given to do, they must
do correctly and thoroughly; do not allow
them to do things by halces. The Teach
ers in our common schools must insist up
on thorough lessons by the pupil, and not
allow them to pass' on to . the next lesson,
or even part of the ,same , lesson until that
is thoroughly understood and mastered.
In order to do this, the Teachers must be
thorough Teachers; they must understand
thoroughly what they are teaching,
Teachers should : bear in mind that the
public judge of the success of a teacher
by the standard - of "how well,. not how
-
much."
It is much better for the pupil to be
thoroughly versed in the fundamental
rules in Arithmetic, than to be, deficient
in those, and stuml le and blunder "thro'
the book." . It is much better for the pu
pil to understand the geography and gov-
ernment of his own Township, County,
and State, than to be ignorant of these,
and be able to answer all the questiols
about the map of Europe or Asia.
It is much better for the pupil to be
able to spell correctly, and define the
words in common use, than to . spell all
those generally given in the "Spelling
Book," and not be able to define any. '`lt
is much better for pupils to use correct
language in speaking and writing, than
to understand all the rules given ip the
"Grammar Book," and still use " seen "
for "saw," " them " for "those," etc.
Teachers, bear in mind these facts when
teaching, and act accordingly.
ENIILLTION
• Emulation is the parent of dishonesty.
You offer a child or youth a prize, and he
will get it—honestly if he can—but get it.
Acquisiaveness, Self-Esteem, and Love of
Approbation, are stimulated to the high
est activity the Moral Faculties not
stimulated at all—put to sleep—the Self
ish gain the ascendency in activity, and
what - is the consequence?. If a lie is need
ed, a lie is furnished. If necessary to do
injustice to another, to secure the prize,
injustice is done. If duplicity, hypocrisy,
meanness, fraud, false pretences what
ever may be found in the catalogue of hu
man depravity short of horrid acts of
overt crime—if any or all of these are
needed'to secure the prize, any, or all are
broughtlin aid. Why? Because the Self
ish Sentiments and Propensities--and the
Selfish Sentiments and Propensities only—
are appealed to when the prize is offered.
They only are stimulated to activity. Talk
about your "noble ambition," • and all
that : it is just as noble as sublimated
Selfishness. It is neither more nor less
than that. What Moral Faculty is called
into exercise in such a contest? What
Moral Faculty is to be gratified by suc
cess in this rivalry? Is it conscientious
ness ? 7 -Veneration ?—Benevolence ? Does
Conscientiousness find gratification in a
triumph over another; by means either
fair or foul? Does such triumph warm
Veneration into a genial glow ? Do we
feel more respect for our rival than we
did before ? Does he feel more for us?
Does 'a triumph produce in the mind of
the victor the ecstatic joyfi which excited
Benevolence can give?
Parents- and teachers must look the
philosophy of Emulation straight in the
face. If the legitimate offspring aye,
the' inevitable tendency —of Emulation,
excited by prizes of any kind, be lying,
deceit, hypocrisy, meanness, treachery,
injustice, hand, pride, scorn, contempt;
e ;otism, vanity, and want of symPathy or ,
brotherhood of feeling, then those who do
not want to raise sdoh fruit, should not
plant the 'seed. "Do tnen gather grapes

BOW TO TOM VOCAL 1117810 TOCETEr
VOL
We have at different times had articles
in favor of the study of Vocal Music in
our schools, throughout the county, and
have also bad a few suggestions how to
teach it. Below we give Dr. . LdWELL
M4soa'e plan of teaching children, which
accords with our view of the proper way
of teaching children how to sing. It also
agrees with the views we bold—a little at
a time and, repeat that. We quote from
a report of a Musical Convention at Syra
cuse, in 1844:
"Be commenced by singing himself the
written exercise he intended to 'teach
them at the time, Then be explained its
principles; 13... t no reference was made to
the written characters. Then he sang it
again. Then be bad them join with him.
i hen he would tell where some had made
la mistake. Then it was sung again and
It was but a few notes. Then he
turned to the blackboard, and showed to
Ahem what had been sang, written down.
He asked them questions in regard to
what be had already told them. They
answered. Ile continued asking gees-
tions,:--explaining it—all singing at every
explanation,--till that little lesson was
the property of every soul in the class,
when he said, "There, my little friends,
that will do for once : you ha've gone over
all you can remember, and if we do any
more now, you won't remember any
thing." The class was then dismissed,
with minds active and hungry for more.'?
"Tux power to wield thought to the
best advantage, is the greatest power be
longing to man. But it is absurd to sup
pose that the teaching of a little syntax
can develop sufficient - ability in regard to
either language or thought. To know
always° promptly what should be said, is
of much greater importance than to know
how to say! it correctly. A steam-engine,
when not hitched to anything, is but an
ingenious and interesting curiousity; but
when it is attached to the multifarious in
dustry of mankind, it moves the whole
world. So it is with language, in regard
to thought.
The great trouble about the study of
language is, that we teach it too much as
a thing detached from thought, life and
the world; while its real practical value
can be fopnd only in connection with
these universal concerns.
Books should teach things art,they are
best learned without books; and knowl
edge is truly valuable only when it has
worked into the mind so thoroughly as
to become foetidly itself.
In most of our education there is too
much impression in proportion to expres
sion; too much cramming, and not enough
digestion and assimilation; or we become
critical much sooner than inventive."
,CRARLES MOLTNETTX, of Overton, died
Aug. 31. 1876. Mr. Mot.vssui had been
a successful teacher for a number of
years. For the past three years he had
devoted the most of his time to the study
of medicine, for which ho had more than
ordinarribilities. In Juno 'he returned
from Long Island Hospital College, at
Brooklyn, where he had been attending
the third of his course of lectures. Ile
was unwell when ho returned. In , his
death the community have lost an earnest
and thorough educator, the family an'up
right and dutiful son, and we an intimate
companion and dearly-beloved friend.
To ED CATS is to draw out or call forth
the faculties. To train a faculty is to
guide, control and regulate its action, un
til that action becomes habitual. In Order
to educate or train a child, a dog, a horse,
or anything else, it is of the utmost im
portance to understand perfectly , the
character of the being to be educated.
Hones and oxenhave different disposi
tions, and those dispositions must be un
derstood
. by. their drivel -3, in order to
drive them succesfully. So must teachers
understand the'disposition of the children
they teach.
THE Teachers in attendance at the
Teachers' Association at Herrick, all
speak highly of 4 the hospitality which the
people of that place manifested during
their stay. The people of Herrick have a
reputation for hospitality, industry and
intelligence.
The next meeting of the Association
will be held at Wyalusing in November,
TkACTIERS should endeavor to correct
erroneous views and opinions in regard to
the methods of teaching and habiti of
study, in the community in which they
teach, instead of tiuding fault, and arous
ing the prejudice and opposition of the
parents.
IT Is often the case that the dull, slow,
but industrious scholar, makes, a better
citizen and a wiser man, than his class
x4atc, who is bright and active.
