Abraham • Lincoln. n. True Exponent of
• American - Principle*: . .
. _
From amid - the brilliant grilaxy..of .
Isciusl worthies, there have shown forth in
all ages, characters which' wh , la delieeated.
are often exempi•fiestiona of the. principles
upon which their respective nuking are.
founded ; for the :'principles of the leader
naturally become ingrafted in the minds' of
his countrymen; and give to the .g tveroment
ita peculiar caste. If their natural tent and
propensity be war, the people are impelled
by some myaterious . power to follow them on
to conquer and to conquest. If happily they
are devoted to those peaceful employment
which are calculated to, do'•their country, the
greatest possible good, the hum of manu
factories and an extensive commerce, are tit,.
strong nalladimits Of their-national identity.
And .history does not furnish us with a.more
striking illustration of a - great mind being the
index of national character, than the subject
of these remarks. His pathway was lit up
with a blaze of-glory which -the foul breath
'of slander could.not contaminate, nor will
the withexing bleats of time' extinguish:--
Then was evidently :. a God moving through
the atmosphere of hid actions, guarding him
from extremes, and, confining, him to that
happy medium, Which wise men have always
sought and which but few have ever attain
ed. 'ln the hour of his- country's danger,
when the darkness of the darkest' night had
spread Its sombre mantle over her
. ; when
misfortune seemed to frown upon her mighti
est and sublimest efforts;' when her bosom
heaved amid the contentions of her offspring ;
_when her freedom was wounded by traitors
at home and her perpetuity menaced, by ene
mies abroad, Abraham Lincoln, in that-hour,
arose superior to the vituperations .of party
and the devastations" of strife, and by the
wisdom of his councils '.proved himself the
immaculate fountain of her redemption; and
the magnificent bulwark of. her integrity.—
It is recorded that -Washington, through the
instrumentality Jf our fbrefathers, saved his
country from British oppression ; but Abra
ham Lincoln, through the blood of her pa-
triots preserved her from the impending doom
of dissolution. • Parties in their ambition for
renown . ; have claimed him as their chieftain;
and although his philanthropic spirit and un
biased actions did not elevate him • above'the
people, yet they were qualities which made
him superior to the prtjadice and cupidity of
faction, and Placed - .him high in the van of
universalfiberty.. The freedom of mankind,
without regard to the distinction of - race or
'clime,. was his sole actuating principle r , and .
,in accordance:with this heaven born attri
bute, he removed the mainspring of Ameri
can discord, by severing the yoke of her
bondmen. But scarcely had , this last glori
ous act been consummated, ere the assassin's
hand had sent him from the arena of his
triumph to the shades - where the depart:
ed patriots he commanded dwell.
Ohl humanity, well mayest thou lament
over the terrible end of fallen champion
Oh 1. America. .well mayest thou, weep over
the tomb of. thy martyred hero; who never
for a moment wavered in his hallowed devo-.
Lion at Ihe shrine of thy freedoth. Happy
Illinois! thou art favored' and blessed above
thy sisters, inasmuch as thy 101 l has been
sanctified by the remains of the prodigy
which thou hadst sent forth - as the landmark
of. a nation in ita most critical conjuncture.
When the. prejudieti . of party shall have be
come eradicated by the transfiguring mist of
time, and the' future votaries of fame shall
have perused his illustrious record, they will
pronounce him truly the . exponent of those
principles, which have justly. =delis 6)1312-

If,America will but act In_accordance with
the principles - which it was his especial care
to propagate, then will her career be glori
ous ;' then will she be enabled to gaze upon
freedom remaining in the .plentitude . of its
power, unawed and übsubdued in her tem
pies, on justice crowned with glory, and un-
Sullied in-her sanctuaries. And though the
inscrutable designs ot attallwise Pmvidence
hive called upon the hero to resign his claim
to mortality ; though the funeral car has con
veyed his earthly tabernacle to the last Sad
resting 'place of - man, yet Abraham Lincoln
is not dead ;• his actions-live emblazoned on
his country 's escutcheon,' and empowered with
übiquity. His spirit still hovers over Amer..

,THE BEAUTIES OF BIBLE LANGUAGE
If we need higher illustration not of the
power of natural objects to adorn language
and gratify taste; but proof that here we find
the ;.highest. conceivable beauty, we would
appeal at once to the Bible. Thoae most op
posed to its teachings heie'acknowledged the
beauty of its language, and this is due main
Iv to the exqusite use Of natural objects for
illustratim It does indeed. draw from every
.field. But when the emotional nature was to
be Bpi:waled tp, the reference was at once to
natural objects, and throughout all . Its
books, the eters, and flowers, and gems, are
prominent as illustrations of the beauties of
religion and the glories of the church,
"The wilderness and the Solitary place
shall be glad for theta, and the desert: shall
rtjoice, and blossom as the rose'
Themountains and the hills shall break
forth before you in singing, and all .the:trees
of the field shall clap . their hands.`.:lnstead
of, the thorn shall come up the
. fir tree, aid.
Instead of the briar shall comettp the myrtle
The power and beauty of the sane objects
appear in the Saviour's teachings.. • The fig
and the olive, the sparrow and the lily of the
field, give peculiar force and - beauty to the
great truths they used to illustrate.
The Bible throughout is remarkable in this
respect. It Is a collection of books written by
authors far,reinOved from each,other in time,
and pbxce,"and mental culture, but through
out the whole•nature is exalted as a revela
tion of God. - Its beauty , and sublimity are
appealed to to arouse the emotions to reach
the moral and religious nature. This _ ele
ment of unity, runs thro o gh all, the _books
where reference hinatute can be made. One
of the adaptations of the Bible to the nature
of:man. is found in the sublime and perfect
representation of the natural,world,.by which
nature is ever made to proclaim the. clutrac
ter and perfection of GNI. No language can
be' written that so - Cterfectly 'lets forth the
grand and terrible in nature and its forces, as
we hear when 'God answers .'Job out of the
whirlwind. No higher appreciation of the
beautiful, and of God as the author of bean
ty, was ever e: reseed than when our Savi
our said of the Mies of the field : • "I say un

THE STORY OF THE ILIAD
Thestery of the Iliad Is verysimple. It
begins -with the quarrel of Agamemnon and
Achilles about a captive girl, .in the ninth
year of -the war- Achilles in anger. with
draws from the. Grecian . camp... , A series of
battles followed, in which the Greeks, de
prived of their swift-footed cbstripion, suf
fered defeatand slaughter. In the meantime
the - secondary heroes pressed forward and
became the leading figures in the martial pic
ture. .In separate chants, the valiant deeds
Of Diomedes, Ajar, 31 - enelatis. Agamemnon.
are commemorated, but the Trojans, led on
by the crested Hector, drive the Greeks' own
to the 'very ramparts of the•ahip,. One by
one the heroes are wounded and disabled,
and. the prospect of - d'a nitrous overthrow
stares them in the face. Agamemnon, at
length, convinced of his fatal error, and anx
ious to recall the angry hero, sends, an em-
bassy with the offer of emote reparation.
The proposal is haughtily rejected. The
war again proceeds, with varying fortune.—
.The Greeks are driven within their *ails,
and the. Trojans. led by Hector, threaten to
fire the.ships. The battle. wavers, Hector is
wounded, and the .Trojans are driven back..
Achilles at length consents that .Patroclus, '
his brother in -arms, shall put on his armor
and go forth to battle.,
The apPearance of this champion, clad In,
the complete steel of the son of Thetis,- at
first strikes terror-into the hosts of Troy. and
. gives heart to the Arg,lvea..- But hods slain
and spoiled of his arms by Hector, and fierce
combats for the possession of the tody fol
low. The Greeks prevail, and besr the slain
hero back to .the camp. - Achilles, over
whelmed with sorrow, abandons himself to
unrestrained lamentation. This calls his
mother, Thetis, up from the sea.- She finds
'him prostrate with grief, yet eager to exact .
bloody vengeance from Hector and the.Tro-.
jans, Hector has the armor. She goes to,
the smithy of Hephaistos, who readily forges
a new shield of Divine workmanship, a breast
plate brighter than the blaze of fire, a strong
wrought helmet, without, with a golden crest
and metal greaves. Achilles -receives the
arms, becomes reconciled with Agamemnon.
who sends him precious, gifts and restores the
Briseis. After lamenting over the dead Pa
troclus, he mounts the car and rushes to.the
field, _careless of life,..and- longing only for
vengeance. And now the war comes to its
terrible turning point. 'The Trojan and Gre
cian - champions are Arrayed in deadly strife,
and the diiiided deities share, according to
their likings in the battle As the salon ap
proaches a close, the description rises in.
grandeur. At length both - armies are with
'drawn from the field, -and Achilles and Hee
tor atone remain.— A single: combat
and Hector falls. Achilles insults the'body
of his foe, lashes him to his car and tinigs
him down to his tent. in the sight -of Priam
and the Trojans, who gaze heart.stricken
from the walls upon the dreadful spectacle.
The Greeks returning to the elute, funeral
games' areperformed in honor of Patroclu.,
_and'twelve Trojan youths are slntightered to
appease his shade. Thus twelve days are
consumed. Priam resolves to visit the hos
tile camp and to implore of Achilles the re
storation of his dead son. An auspicious
om'-n inspires him with- hope. He 'departs,
taking with hint costly gifts; by which he
thinks to appease his vindictive enemy. He
is met by Hermes, in the form of a young
man. who guides hiM tothe tent Of Achilles..
The Grecian. -hero, astonished at his sudden
appearance, gives'him a hospitable:reception,
and overcome by pity for his unequaled woes,
consents to surrender the body of Hector. It
is borne back to the city; the inhabitants re
ceive it with loud lamentations ; funeral rites
are performed, and, so the poem closes.
SPEAKER COLFAX, 'being in Musing, the
wits' of Michigan, on the 20th ult., visited
the Constitutional `Convention in session
there.. The Conventlod took a recess of ten
minutes ilk the purpose of enabling members
to tie personally. introduced; He was con
ducted to the desk ,of the presiding officer, -
when he made a capital speech. Inthe even
ing he spoke again, with histsual eloquence,
in response to a serenade given him at the
Lansing House. We '"copy from' his' last
speech the following striking passage:
" And the 'American people, having thus

us more brilliant than all our glorious history,

the Southern people yield themselves honest.
ly_iind in good. faith to those demands upon

wrongs and OppressionS of the past shall

will askyou with wonder whether it was
possible that ",
in years . gone by men' were
mobbed, and tarred, and feathered, and hung
for. simply saying that they preferred liberty
to slavery in the United States; and when
yon will confess to them (almost with Paul
at the stoning of Stephen,) that this was re
ally so in the darker days of the Republic—
then, in the brighter light of liberty and jus
tice, North and South shall go tegether,
clasped hand in hand, rivals • only in the tri

with one heart in the great work of making
this Republic the noblest,' the purest; the
truest, as ii will belhe richest, land beneath
the circuit of the sun. [Long continued-and
enthusiastic cheering; during which Mr.
Colfax 'retired:]"
SCENE AT THE SU/IRATT TRIAL.-Ari Inter
esting scene took place during the afternoon
session of the Surratt;-trial oulifonday of last
week : •
Dr. McMillan, the Surgeon of the steam-
ship Peruvian, on Which Sutton- fled from
Quebec to Liverpool; was called. The pris

promptly identified him as the penion to
whom he.as presented in a state room on
the -steamer between Montreal- and Quebec,
and who was his fellow-passenger during the
trip. He then began to narrate
-in a clear,
connected, •
.candid manner, the various con
versaticins.the prisoner bad with him.. An
account of one of !introit's trips to Richmond
was being related, when the counsel for the
prisoner pretended -to misunderstand a por
tion of the narrative, and sought to conluse
the witness by repeating his statements in ap
entirely different form. This the witness
corrected several times, when at last he re
sented it as an insult; and in an. impublive
And very forcible manner accused the pri-ion
er's counsel of insulting the Government wit:.
nesse); and warmly denounced such conduct
as only worthy of cowards and sneaks. This
of course, took the counsel by -surprise. and
produced a decided sensation in the Court
Room. • The defence immediately appealed
to the Court, whci rebuked the witness for
his language, and at the same time rebuked
the counsel for badgering the witnesses: Di.
McMillan politely apologised to the Court,
and then remarked that .the counsel 'for the
defence had A few - days ago insulted-the wit
nesses for the prosecution by saying that they
ought to, be in the penitentiary, and he-be- -
lieved himself as much a gentleman as either
of them t The 'testimony was intensely In

SLACK' DEATH PLAGUE.
The hotors of the Black Death. which has swept all
Europe In Its tertible course, are fire centnrieerid, and;
exist only tn legendary history ar.d tradition. ' The
Plague canto somewhat tearer one day add lett a more
definite record of itaeld - But it Is a long time since
the Western nations have.been smitten by the scourge
of God with the severity of former days. The cholera
hari been regular in its visitation, but-ite ravages have.
been comparatively _ light. Iteppertne, however, that
ethuige andterribly fatal disease exists in Ireland. and
has existed there for some seventeen months. which
has a striking similatity to that King of Plagues, the
•abick Death. The peculiar distinction of this un
known malady, which,,in other, res.peetai. rumbles a
wonderful active fever. consists in the appearance of
purple spots upon the body. of the patient, 'which
spread over his person and increase - in -depth of color
until death. The rapidity With which the disease pro
gresses to a fatarcoaclusion, is remsrkable : in none,
instances not more than fpnr hours, elarsing .h. tween
the attack and the death of the sufferer. In other ca
ries the patient has lingered for anent days, -and in a
Teri - violent phase of the malady a vickness of several
weeks has been followed by reeevery. The average la
about eighteen hours from theilret 'lndications of 11l-
nese. In some cues the patients' preferred - their
senses up to the very hoar of col lapee others became
Incoherent, and others died In the greatek agony The
dleeme is plainly contagious. A , Foldier engaged In .
the - Fenian-insaffeetion died of the disease
_. and short
ly after his washerwoman and her children were pros
trated with the same malady. Its nature is ni.known
and Its remedy of course Impossible to be found.—
Meanwhile the deaths In Dublin are steadily and rapidly -
Increasing from this mysterious complaint. Are we to -
have a Bleck Death in the nineteenth century.

A PEA - V
days ago, in company with a your g
Men who was anxious to pass through that
trying ordeal, a teacher's examination, I vl
sited the Smashing Borough at Cressona.—
The class examined was rather small, but I
was much pleased with the examination. It
bas heen my privilege to attend several ex
aminations by our present excellent County
Superintendent, and•l must say I•have never
listened tci examinations better conducted.—
Therei- are two points in pit - denier to. which
My attention has been- directed : Ist, the
mildness and- sympathy shown toward the
timid and worthy ; 2nd, the summary man
ner in which he disposes of the seat-ccinceited.
. The sehoolsof Cressona closed on June 28,
after a term of len months, with a pie nic,
attended by over pupils. loge - her with
many parents and friends of education. We
are informed by 'a friend who way present,
and Wbo is a good judge, that they bud a ju,
*lel time. - •
They have six schools in the Brirough; tin
der the superintendence of S P. V'an Pelt, M.
, than whom no more persevering and indus
trinus teacher lives in the 'County.
.And . the
Board of Directors appreciate his labors, for
they have constantly increased his salary,
until now they pay him $9OO per year: This
is just as it should be. When a good teach
er is obtained, he should be retained and sus
tained by the directors and people ;, then you
will have good school's. As an evidence of
this, look, at The schools of Minersville in
comparison with Some other boroughs that
fret:ineptly change teachers. We are glad to
place : Cressona along side of Minersville.
Mr. Van Pelt will be . assisted the. coming
year by Misses Silliman, Robinson, Bough,
and another lady whose name I cannot recall.
Jr conclusion, allow us 'to eimgratulate
Cressona upon the efficiency of her schools,
and to assure them that the only true and
sure way to,keep them good is to keep in
telligent. and energetic 130iril• of Directors,
such as they now have. The present Board
consists of Luther R. Keefer,. President; W.-
H.' Bines, Secretary; other members,. Geo.
E Hoffman, 'Henry Mortimer, -Conrad-Pow
ers and SSmuel Lehr. Wishing that the
schools of Cressona may continue to improve
And flourish;- for the present WQ, bid them
adieu. • '
WE are pleased to notice' that Misses •
Streeper and Couch, teachers of : the Potts
ville Freedmen'S School at Murfreesboro',
Tenn.,_have returned -home to spend vaca
tion. These young ladies seem .very much
interested in the good wink in which they
are engaged. They will return about the
tat of. September. The Association under
whose auspices they are laboring, fully ap-
predate the' earnest and of flout labors of
these ladies, and from what we have heard,
we are free to sitylhat the Pottsville Freed
men's School' stands second to none in the
South ; and we . sincerely hope" the citizens
will come forward with their contributions
cheerfully, vieing with - each other hi their
promptness to pay up their subscript ions.—
We speak for the gentlemen of the Commit:,
tee, that they are willing to - do all in their
power to push this matter along ; but It '
would be mach more pleasant to have sub
scribers pay over theiesubscriptions without
having to be called on several times. ' -

AUTOMATIC TEAMING.
PIIILADECPITSA.
Different as are the'styles and manners of
; teaching, they are almost as diverse and nu
merous as there are teachirs iu the land.
But few teachers can agree in all the minutiae
of their sr —for art it is. Etch has his own
peculiar dogmaticAl Views, as to the govern
ment of the schou!-room, to which .he bottle.
In preference even to those which-he is aware
are more advanced and enlightened Among
so many different systems. there necessarily,
are some which pissess smierior advantages
over the others, and, vice versa, those which
ate peculiarly disadvantageous. Among the
latter, few are so
. full of, error and eviuce so
little judgment as automatic teach Mg. .
•By this-t, nu, we mean to r'ssi2mste the'
system pursued by too many of (-up teachers .
at the present time :—That of mere'y a.sign
ing the daily tasks of the - scholars, hsaring
the recitations, and examining, them as if it:
were a solemn duty to get over the greatest
poisible amount, in the least pos s ible time,
'and the moat superficial manner, giving little
or no explanation, and when ttfepupils ar
rive at some inexplicable question, and hay
-ing set their little -wits to work, all to no
purpose, desire such explanation, bluffing
them off if possible, by pleading, either the
frivolity_of the question, or if that is impos
sible, the lack of 'time. ,Such is automatic
teaching, as it exists in too' many of our
schools and academies.' It 14 a most fatal
error. Bach, a system-cannot but be most
ruinous, and such instructors worse than use-
- Many teachers, feeling _that the name an
.tomaticwill not apply to themselves, may be .
inclined to doubt the truth of our statement,
.and to think that. either no such system ex
ists; or , that the picture is over.lrawn ; but it
is nothing bnt the truth, as the sad experience
of many a scholar will testify: We have.
known a professor, occupying the Most. im
portant chair in one of our first public acad
emies, not only to shirk all inqutties, but- to .
plead as his excuse, the want of time, and
then, after the lesson ti-d been 'harried
through In an almost .frantie manner, he:
would spend the bslancoul the hour—often
one-third of it -ha his private correspondence.'
Not is this an isolated case: -There are ham- .
dreds of teacherswho pursue a similar plan to
'their own convenience . .and case, and the de:
triment of the scholar; -
Some are led to it tliiough natural indolence
and a desire to possess in their office of teach
ers, asmuch ore sinecure as possible. That
it is notnecure, when filled faithfully, every
teacher of ability and earnestness can testify.
Other% again, pursue it through utter incom
petency,. as It is the sole , method whereby
they can retain their positions. litre the
kitoiledge gained, is not, as it should be.
gleaned =tray from the explanations and ef
forts of the teacher, but almost entirely from
the= textbooks alone. Yet this is allowed, ,
and these teachers suffered to remain in their
positions as models of ignorance to the
scholars, and sallying reminders of their own
Incompeteuey and that of our school and
educational authorities.
