POTTSVO4LE
,ACADEMY.
Ate. Editor assured that you cannot
be otherwise than highly favorable to ;the interests
of education in general, andel' this town and vi
cinity in , particular ; end believing also that your
paper, from its wide circulation and commanding
influence, is pre-eminently calculated to awaken
the public auention on this subject, I concluded
that you would readily open your columns dim the
attainment of so desirable an object. According
ly 'I design addressing to you, and through you to
the readers of the Journal,- a short series of or.
tides on the merits of the institution whose name
heads this commtmication, and its claims to liberal
patronage.
It might be deemed superfluous to gives detailed
rehearsal of the circumstances and causes (of
.general notoriety) which led to the establishment
very recently of the New Pottsville Academp—
Notwithstanding, however, it cannot be amiss to
call to mind briefly the main reason of the whole
movement. This consisted in the want of an
effectual system of sound education. i '
A community like this, forming the centre of
,extensive commercial enterprize nowhere excelled
in the Ptata, and situated at the mouth of a region
as inexhaustible of mineral wealth .aa'ariy to be
found, must call into requisition its energy and
talents. These mental capacities exist originally,
as they do every 'where else in an undeveloped
and uncultivated form. Like the coal and iron
in the base of these surrounding mountains, they
mast be brought forth from their bidden recee-es.
To accomplish this end requires instrumentalities
no less powerful in their sphere than those em
ployed at the Mines. To uncover and digiip the
priceless treasures of intellectual nature is not
children's play or the work of a day or. a year.—
It requires the most available means, "end peree.
vering, unremitting efforts. A desidersilum in the
former-is almost invariably followed by a neglect
of the latter. That such means were not at hand
is evinced by the fact that measures were taken
to obtain them.
. .
The rising generation therefore, so soon 'to au;
'percede the present one in every station of power.
influence, and business, Was left comparatively:
destitute at.horne of the means to become quail
fied fur its awaiting responsibilities. Tho duties
owed to it from the one immediately preceding

then-could they be expected to step into society
end receivefrom the bands of their predecessors
its high interest without occasioning a eertous re
trograde? , sane and retlectir.g MAII coull ex
pect this. And ;et, without, better advantages of
mental culture, this must have, been the. hies iub!e
result.
It wee viewing the subject in this light, that
produced a lively sense in the public mjnd of the
necessity of etTectultl measures at once to remedy
the °sal. A project both repuisbn and honorary
teethe common intelligence. as well as laudable
in the khr,sl movers. svas set in motion to supply
this unfortunate educational deficit. • It Wes de.

bly'so, for a. diminution of the rate of toll, de

with the dividend reasonably required. But they
have looked in vain, they have asked in vain.—'
Their petitions to the Company have been treated
ale so much waste paper and w asted words. -
There are transported over that 'Road 535,.0 1 )0

the fifteen per cent. dividend on their capital stock
of $600,000. But their extension wilt eat up
. the extreme profits for years to come, and Mete.
their dividends to a small per cents:el What I
now, speak of is to show hoe far and what
amount r ef money the Operators here will have to
pay for that extension. It is well known that the
Mabonoy Road will not have any 'likelihood of
paying its fair proportion of the interest for years
toeome, if it ever does, which is very doubtful.

lest he should think himself forgotten. Not
that there is anything to answer in his last coita

nothing to dietinguish it front rodomontede, only
io say my dear "Pro Bono Publico :—Are you
a responsible individual! if you are and I think
you are,! will then answer you," or "do you belong
tothejile;" (that is the laboring glen,) r , for. I
do so depricate this fighting with the file,
that if
you belong to them, why Icannot mar my dignity
by taking any notice of you." My dear sir,l
must acknowledge I sot of the file, end you say
..they (that 'lithe tilk,"as you ate pleased to term
those who have to labor for their living.) have no
wrongs to redress in this case. If being idle in
stead of fully employed, by the oppression and
neglect of a monopoly, is not wrong, I must
acknowledge I em ignorant of whet wrongs are.
But though I em of the file, I claim the same
liberty you ciaim, end deem that the freedom of
this country gives me the right to speak, argue,
and convince, by all honorabia means.
Ton have given your Torsion of the merting
of the first of March, and I have gi•en the view

judge which article deserves credit. But of one
thing let me remind you: I ant prepared to say
you stated in that meeting, you were ashamed of
your conduct thars„.aad also that you allowed
your passion so far to get the batter of your judg:
ment, (or words to; that effect) and before that
passion had had any time to cool off, you wrote
your letter of the Id,: and Lam convinced you

Nexus of the Week.
NORTH AMERICAN PASSENGER ACT.
Most readers aro aware that a bill is now be
fore the British lions° of Commons to regulate
the accommodations for emigrant passengers to
the British North American possessions. At a
recent meeting at Liverpool, of ship owners,
agents, and others interested in the business, it
iWas resolved to memorialize Government on the
, subject, and nrge the allowance of fourteen feet
fur every adult passenger, 1114 . 4 seven for every
I child under ten years of age. The meeting ex
pressed an opinion adverse to the employment
of a " superintendent of emigrants." proposed by
Government, as inconvenient and 'useless ; and
the appointment of a surgeon to every emigrant
'hiring impracticable.
It was recommended that a cook ho provided
on board emigrant ships, to be paid by the pas
sengers, at a rate of one shilling per head.
The clause which regulated the quantity and
kind of provisions which each passenger should
be compelled to take, underwent a protracted
discnSsion. The scale fixed in the bill was more
costly than requisite, or than the passengers
would wish, and it was resolved to recommend
the following: 3. lbs. bread, 5i lbs. of oatmeal
or flour, peas or barley, I lb. of dried fish, 1. lb.
of rice, oz. of coffee, ft oz. of tea, I,lb. of sugar,
per head Per week.
ASTONISHING ACCIDENT-GOOD
EFFECTS OF BRANDY.
The Detroit Daily Advertiser says: "A remar-
kable accident occurred a few days since to a
worthy citizen of Detroit, Mr. Roger Fitzpatrick,
brewer. Mr. F. had been across the river, and
on returning in a canoe with two others, the frail
bark was capsized 'rar the middle of the stream.
The weather was extremely cold, and the river
was filled with masses of floating ice... Mr. F.,
unable to swim, threw himself upon his back,
folded his arms across his breast, and calmly sub
mitted himself to the action of the wind and the
waves. Being a corpulent man, and wrapped in
a large overcoat, he kept on the surface of the
water, (Int in a few moments became uncon
scious. The wind was blowing fiercely, and Mr.
F. floated towards Her Majesty's dominions.—
Sense persons happened to see the body, dragged
it upon the beach, and sent for one of the Queen's
Coroners. The usual methods of restoring drown
ed persons were resorted to—the jaws pried open
and brandy poured down the throat—and Mr.
Fitzpatrick opened bis eyei, and very cooly in.

THE SWORD OF- WASHIATITONi
, A VENERABLE PRESENT!
George Washington P. Cnstis, of Arlington,
near Washington City, has presented to his son
in-law,Captnin R. E. Leo, of the U. S. Engineers,
(an officer'whose brilliant services in the Mexi
can War have elicited the praise dell the Gene
rals) a sword with the following inscriptions :
t' The gift of General Washington to George W.
P. Custis, 10th of January, 1790." " Presented
by George W. P. Cuitis to , captain Robert E.
Lee, U. S. A., the 22d of
_February, 1848."
This ancient sabre is peculiarly venerable;
it is the ()illy sword that Washington ever pre
sented in his life-time, and with his ow, , .nd,
to a human being. When presented by the Chief
to his adopted son, (then an oflicer'of Cavalry)
in 1790, it was attended with this injunction:
•' This sword, sir, you are never to draw but iu
a just cause, or in defence of your country."
When this interesting relic of a past ago shall

RAIL ROAD IRON.
The N: Y. Tribune says: "A statement has
recently; ippetUed in some of the pipers that
Railroad iron had been shipped from this country
to England. The =planation' is this: The mils
sent to Englatid were some English rails of an
inferior 'qualitY, which' had been lying in . New
York for sale for wine time, without finding a
purchaser. The fact is now well established that
American rails are better than English. The
New Jersay Railroad CoMpanya few weeks ago,
made a Contract to pnrchaie 1,000 tons of the
Trenton Iron Company, at $Ol per Jon, which
rats $8 or $9 above the price of English rails:—
The New Jersey 'Railroad Company had . tried
both English rails and .those' made at Trenton,
and preferred to boy the latter at this difference
of price. Since the contract. rwas made, the price
has risen in England and the United States."

If the, accounts of this revoltrion ere correct,

of those who began the revolution. BOMA,

the populace, and the supreme authority given to
a set of philosophers, communists and republican ,
among whom Arno, Marie, Rolin and Lamar

'that the Dutcher's of Orleans should be mate re

great prevalencoaf communist doctrines, and the
prominence given to knoiva communists in the
provisional government furnishes • proof.—lf the
populace continue to triumph - there will be great
er changes yet.
A federal government, like that of the United
States, is impossible in France, unless the depart.
write are elevated into independent common
-wealth.; we shall expect, therefore, to see France
elevated into one vast republic, perfectly indepen
dent; like thcise of New York; or Pennsylvsuia.
The probability of each a government being' per
nutrient, is, however less tflan in case of a federal
republic, tirade up, like our., of different States,
which afford a mutual check on each --other. If
France becomes one great centralized republic,
Paris will continue to rule; and the government
be liable. at any time, to be overthrown by a ri.
s'ng of the populace. It was thus that the goy.
crnment of the Gironde, the best government ever
known in France, was overthrown in 1793.
Parties in Prance.—A comeaunicariot in the
the New York Post, signed Henry Wycoff, gives
the following statement of the number and con
dition of partied in 'France, which will prove
interesting. to the reader: The Reform party
which comprised the middle classes, heade I by
Gridlock Barret; and Uupin, the elder, whose
organ is le Siecle, and who desire a constitutional
monarchy. This is the strongest. The Oarlist
patty which is composed of the old nobility,
having great influence in the country, led by
Bowyer and Genoude, whose organ is /a Gazelle
de Prance, and who will accept also a col:wain.
I Pored monarchy, The Bonaparte factifin, rep
resenting the Military interests,without a leader or
organ, and in fired: of a strong military monarchy.
, The,' Republican party, consisting of the lower
theses, led by Arago, Marne, and Louis Blanc,
with the famous Nations( for their organ, and who
Insist on a republic. The first party propose the
regency of the Duchess of Orleankand the Count
de Paris (nine years old.) The second the Duke
de Bordeaux, as Henry Fifth. The third. Prince
Louis'Nopoleon ; and the fourth will probably
revive the old Institution of Consuls. Unless a
compromise between these rival pretensions take
place. , civil war is inarcit.ent snd it is not easy
to discover no- what grounds it can be farmed.
- The Duke do Bordeaux is of the old regime,
detested by the middle and lower, though pre
ferred by the higher classes. Prince Louis Na
poleon is the nephew of ills Emperor. and there
fore popular with the people end the army ; but
he is not a reputdiean. -The Duchess of Orleans
and the Count de Paris are acceptable hi Alio
middle or trading class, as promot rig the best
chance of stability ; -but this is a continuation of
the Orleans dynasty. deep sad by all. The intel
ligence and wealth of . France are decidedly hostile

polificar weight in the country ; and Marut

The immediate enlargement of the elective

the goveriament. and their decision will be re
spected by the majority of the nation. - But will
the minority submit! Meanwhile the provision
