however, had the chance to hear a number
of pieces which were played in the Square,

Sir. Grier, the present proprietor of this in
stitution, seems to lie " onwaril," as ho is
constantly making improvements, lie has
now succeeded in .securing the services of
Prof. A. H. Kieilcr, who is a graduate of
the Ileidleburg College, and an experienced
teacher
Qwitli Mr. K. as principal, assisted by
Miss Dodge, as teacher of music and draw
ing, this school oilers inducements equal to
any in tlio state. We have no doubt that
the citizens of our county will show by
- their patronage, that they appreciate Mr.
Grier s exertions to provide tneni with a
first class school.
DtJclaTiiiionsi for Pensions. Under a law
of Congress and the regulation of tlio Pen
hion OUiee, the time during which declara
tions for pensions may be tiled by tho ex
soldiers who served in tho late war, or
their heirs, expires by limitation in June
next, and after that tiino no case will be re
ceived without spccinl act of Congress in
c.ich case. The act of June C, 1800, prescribes
that all such d eclarations should bo liled
within live years after tho passage thereof,
tho framer of the act believing that this
was sufficient time for tho liling of all buna
J'ule cases.
Hough Treatment. According to the
following, which wo cut from tho Hadical,
they have a rough way of treating strangers
in Alloona :
On Thursday afternoon last, a young man
man named Snowden, from Bedford coun
ty, ciinio to this city soliciting money to
relieve tho distress of lk family, they hav
ing lately been burned out. AVhilo in the
Allegheny House, on Alain street, he pre
sented his subscription paper to a man
named Champcnour, a cripple, who imme
diately began to abuse him, calling him a
" d d fraud" and using other very abus
ive language Snowden, not knowing
Champeuour was crippled, knocked him
down. Champeuour then drew a revolver
and tired twice at Snowden, missing him.
Snowden then attempted to escape, but was
attacked by about a do.eu of Chanipenour's
friends and knocked down. Ho linally suc
ceeded in getting away and was pursued
levu street by a shower pf stones. Taking
j-efuge in a tavern at tho lower end of tho
street, ho remained for somo time, and on
going out again had not proceeded far until
ho was again attacked and compelled to
take refuge in flight. His pursuers ran him
into a storo on Virginia street when tho
doors were locked and tho police sent for
who gave him tho necessary protection un
til ho left the city. So far neither Cham
peuour nor any of his friends have been
arrested.

arry a face un-
siill'nsccl with a lilusli of slianie. are very I
difficult questions to answer. Yet they do
all, and anchor themselves so firmly on their
accustomed gazing places, day after day,
and night after night, and month after
imiulli. that not tin; lielitenimf from the
eves of ill-starred ladies, nor the thunder-
ings ot disgusted men can sulliee to
move them to other anchorage grounds
The gale of public opinion blows heavily
against them, they doggedly ride out the
storm, and grow more hateful and ugly by
reason of their prolonged existence. Yo
often wondei if Hie professional loafer ever
reflects that it would cost him much less to
be a respectable, industrious man. A lirst
class loafer fjllows his profession at tha ex
pense of days, weeks, months, years. His
entire time must be devoted to it. It costs
him friends, health vigor, comfort, honor,
digu it y, fdf-respeet, and linally till regret
and consideration when dead. So says an
exchange, and so say we. Ihit that is not
all idleness leads lo vice, iminoi taliy and
rime, and linally to the penitentiary or the
tallows. It would be a hundred fold better
il every idle boy or loaler was eiiLiaiied in
some useful occupation vven though it b
no higher than a hod-carrier or street seav
cnger. Il; might sae them from the pent
tenliaryor the gallows. Let thosu who
have idle boys put them to some useful oc
cupation. Tile Newspapers. A child beginning to
read becomes delighted with newspapers
Nfor he reads names that are very familiar,
und he will progress accordingly. A news
paper in one year is worth a quarter's school
ing to a chihl, and every father must con
soler that substantial information is con
lJeeted with this advancement. The moth
jr of a family being one of tho heads and
having a more immediate care of tho chil
dren should herself be instructed. A mind
occupied becomes fortified against the ills
of life, and is braced for any emergency.
Children amused by reading or study arc of
course considerate and more easily govern
ed. How many thoughtless young men
have spent their evenings in a tavern ora
grog-shop, who ought to have been reading.
How many parents who never spent twen
ty dollars for books for their families would
gladly have given thousands to reclaim a
son or a daughter who had ignorantly and
thoughtlessly fallen into temptation.
Church Xotices.
In the Presbyterian Church prayer meet
ing on Wednesday evening. Preaching on
Sunday morning, at 10 o'clock.
In tho Kcformud Church, prayer-meeting

Horse Stolen. On Monday night of last
week, a valuable draft horse" was stolen
from the stable of Milton Painter, Esq., at
Owings' Mills, Baltimore county, and has
not yet been heard of. Mr Painter oilers a
reward of twenty-five dollars for the recov
ery of the horse, and twenty-fivo dollars for
tho arrest and conviction of tho thief.
County Union.
An Insurance Agent at Cleveland, Ohio,
writes : "A lumber horse ran away with a
bob-tail wagon, and tipped in the street
over a small woman and six elderly chil
dren. The horse began to cry and the
wagon, bled freely at tho nose, but other
wise, tho street is doing well. No insurance.
