WILL he or will he not he confirmed.is the Important question of the hour, with newspaper correspondents regarding Mr. Akerman, the nonly appointed Attorney °e feral. It is highly probable that Lo will be confirmed. Tux mild , mannered Indians of the Arapahoe and Cheyenne tribes are on the war path, committing all sorts of depre dations. A little more of Sheridan - and lees talk of peace would be wholesome about this time. The effect of articles in behalf of. poor Mr. Lo and family, encour aging blm to do all sorts of wicked things to perplex the administration, published in the,Poef, which has large circulation in the tribes,is commeaeing to be felt. Tux Commercial calls on the Republi. =II of the Erie-Crawford district to stand by George K. Anderson •'for be will prove a • capable and faithful representative.' Cool Mr. Anderson will fully appreciate the endorsement, but lest vanity should get thebetter of -him, we would advise that he continue In his efforts to establish his claims as a resident of his district; to account for the scrap of financial paper held in flarriaburg, for the sake of his handsome autograph; to explain . his course last winter in engineering the bolt cm the Treasurership; to make gc;od his record as a Republican, and to soften .the 'points of the Pipe bill swindle story rn doing allthese things Mr. Anderson will have occupation enough until Monday next, when, in all probability, the people . of Crawford will vote to allow him plenty of time for meditation in the irtirary of private life. Tnr. comprehensive bill of amnesty, in trodueeil In Congress by Mt. Butler, o Massachusetts, will meet with the endorsement of all •god riliZolll 4 . The feeling of animosity left by the war to poison the minds of the people of onesec.

The sooner all disabilities ire remorod and the South ern people ars made feel that thelllaoll of States maintained at such fearful cost, also implies a union of heirts and hands and Interests, the better for the=eommon welfare. It is easier to forgive than to entertain malice; and forgiveneas.is more pleasant and pays better. That will be a happy day when the ' bitter feelings en gendered by the war are eradicated from the American heart and we all stand sol- Idliand closely cemented together and thrive, push andprosper as an united and happipeonle. We hope Congress in its wisdom will pais the general act of am nesty and thus snake another step towards sectoring union and harmony in all parts of the land. . THE CRAWFORD COUNTY SYS TEM. As • our County. Committee has asked the people once more to pass upon • the question of adopting the Crawford coun ty system, and as the Committee has been moth blamed by those who are gettjpg up a Free Lore call because they did not es t/Mali the Crawford county system this year, without submitting it td the people, we propose to show that, only two years ago,- this system wab submitted to the Re publicans of this county and that they re fused to adopt it. The whole matter has-tog been so re cently acted on by the people, the source of all power, It was manifestly improper to ask. - much less to expect, the County Committee to deliberately set the popular verdict aside. On the 12th of February, 1868, the Re publiCan County Committee met, and called a County convention to meet on • Match 2d, following, to elect delegates to . the State Convention.: We extract the fol lowing from the minutes: • A discussion took place on die question as to whether the delegate or Crawford scanty rystem should be adopted at the primary elections, - which terminated by the appoin tment of a committee, monist- Ing o en. A. L. Pearson, C. W. Melleittwi and W. N. Ogden, to 'correspond with other county committees as to the mode ...of carrying on elections and report at a subsequent meeting. • The Committeothen adjourned to Feb . ruiry 19th, when the following proceed ings took place : Ressfred, That the manner of making nominations hereafter by the Republican party be referred to the primary meetings on the'29th of February-41dd primary meetings to instruct their delegates In what manner the future : nominations should bo made--wlietherhy Popular vote or by electing delegates. Resolved, That this Committee rec'om mend to the. Republican voters of each district that they instruct theli delegate' to the March Convention as to whether the nominations shall hereafter be made by popular vote or by the delegate apt tam. The. Coniention met on the 2nd of March: and Gep.Pearlloll, Chaim= of the Committee previously appointed on the subject, by the Comny Committee, sub- mitted a paper gfrilla the tallest details of the Crawford sonny system. In the course of the proceeding. of the Conven tion we find the following paragraph : Mr. McCarthy stated that at part of ILIA bushman of the Convention was tb take into consideration the -..propoied changeln the manner of making noralie. ...

The majority of this committee re- . pottid u follow. : Readoed, That the delegate apttem be continued. The minority report was as follows: Maolced, That all nominations hereaf ter shall be by popular vote. The italtnity of this Committee who thus reported in favor of continuing the delegate system. consisted of Mr. David Belnies, from the rand part of the city, and Messrs. Coulter. Conner, and Tower, front the country. The Minority, who fart)* the Crawford county system, con sisted of Messrs McKelvey; Pearson and MoCatthy—ill from the city. `The two resolutions being before the Conyeitiott.

TO prolong life is !there-, whole study and care. Why this differ ence between the few nod the many 1' Why so much strength and so inanyyears to some, and so great weakness and suet shortness of life to others? Why this loss of. power and life? These questions suggest the subject of the presett ad dress, "Working Power of Man. - Work is necessary and power desirable. To do the most In all of a long life should be the aim of every one. Work Is the' great law of our being. essential alike to our happiness and seeress. -In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread," is n blessing as well ns a curse. All nature works; every blade of grass, every leaf of the tree, every Heti of file forest, every in sect however minute, every animal how ever large, must work or die. Absolute rest is nowherelseen. The air, earth, sea, clouds and planets unceasingly work. The unseen powers of attraction or repel ' Mon never suspend .their action.

Work is heaven a great ordinance for human improvement. -Where wilt 600 go, etc. that thou wilt not have to ',lousier' is the Catalan proverb to denote the toil and labor of existence. The inventions and discoveries and every triumph in art and science, have been the result of work. It is a law of Political &tourney that whatever has value has toes. The man who discovered the great nugget of gold, which weighed twenty.right pounds, at the Bendigo diggings in-Aus tralia, was from that time a ruined man. and soon fell a victim to • his pride and folly; John W.

"Ohe thing ae' quint bypein is worth a hundred a, quired with lease." These' cases show that as "it is no honor tole; dropped on fortune's hill, but to mount it," so only those who mount it know how to remain there. With regard to the other class, it is often only thsspeed of the descent that leads ns to notiee the fact that they have so much as touched the bill top. Work atm. enables isit to enjoy leisure recreation dad rest; it stands between us and the mire Misery of idleness; it is dig. nified aid_honomble; it is the nail and at mosphere in which grow cheerfulness, hopefulness, And health of body and mind.

When a lady naked Turner, the celebrated English painter. what his secret was, he replied I have no secret but hard work. ' These are examples not only of working power, but power concentrated to one great object. •The want of thlticoncentm. thou will account-ter Everett's accomplish. ing so little in proportion to his great - gifts and rare opportunities. Coleridge, seeking to be at the same time poet, his torian, essayist, lecturer, metaphysician and much more, left no monument worthy of his superior genius. A machine hi valuable for its power to do, to accomplish something. What I claimed; by an inventor is not always real ized. Ills model may be ingenious, bu if it!will not work well ht is useless. Th capacity of an engine is measured by what it will actually accomplish. One that will raise 33,000 pounds one foot high in one minute is said to have ono horse pow. er. Another element to be considered is the time It will work. One that will - earl bat a few hours or days, will not pay its Cost—is worthless. Another ofd the same power, 'that will work on forr years, is invaluable. Man is, in a certain sense, a machine,—a machine for work,—! work for himself, for his ruce.„and for bid Maker. He in, to an extent, eelfvegvilat ) ! hog and self-repairing. To prepare this delicate and complicated machine for hi life work requires at least twenty year'. Very many are condemned before this preparation is completed.. One half din before four years of age, and only one out of five hundred lives to \ bo eighty years of age. Although these mite-tines are the owners of themselves, many of them are reckless of their power. using self-ruin In a few brief years. V ry seldom does one retain and exert its test power for the longest possible tim . • power, using implies power work. To pme sees power is the ambit on of all, wheth er seen in nature, In the meatless catar act, the lightning's flash tho destructive tornado; twin man, in the physician's skill, the orator's eloquence, the poet's genius, the artist's lute, the Philosopher'e wits d6m, extorting from nature her secrets, and harmonizing apparent contradictions; wherever sown, It is admired. To use This power for good is not y a duty but a grand - privilege. All peons cannot an quire the-highest kinds pf power possible to man; that which they can possess, pow er to work—by which other forms of pow er are obtained they boyishly squander and soon become bankrupts.

In this working power there is a vast difference in man. Some only barely exist, spending all their feeble energies to keep mind and body together, while others, through a long life, possess and. exert a prodigious poser.

Professor Von Oettinger, of Prussia, has pirblished a work upon Moral Statis tics and Christ nManners, In which he . handles the subj ' ci of suicide in an ethaua tire manner. 1. cm a notice upon.: this work, In the hiladelphia Ledger, we glean the folio g: The statistics of the Professor aro ed chiefly upon the tables of France ande-+.lia, which ere probably , the fullest of an y nations in Europe. The ratio of suicide. population, increases faster than the ulation. Thin In Prua PIA, to 1830, the umber of suicides re, ported.was 1,187, and in 1805 it was 3,191, which was two end a half times greater than the ratio of ' create of population. batFriece, the nu bees during the same year. were res ively 1,739 and 4.700. whic.b is more t nine times the ratio of increase of the 'po Metier'. A part of. this 'apparent Increase s doubtless due to the more accurate reports now-allays. 'ln Norway,the io of increase of sui cides to population has long -been three per cent., and in 81M0111 five per cent. per annum, while the population has not in creased faster than one and a half per cent. The Professor discovered that the frequency of suicides In any given year depends upon the length of the days. Thus, everywhere, there are more suicides in Jose and July, and fewer in Noveinber. December and January, than In any other. months. In the former, the proportion is eleven per cent.; and in the late, only six and a half. As means of self-murder, hanging and poisoning have, during the past thirty . years, become commoner than shooting', and drowning. Drowning is, however, i more frequently resorted to by women than by men, and bp one out of every two hundred fenialit Weida] resorts to shoot-' lug. Of children under fifteen, It la found that out of one hundred suicides among boys, eighty-six hang themselves, while out of one hundredsnicides among girls seventy-one throw themselves Into the water. Young men generally Alicia them- • selves, and young women take poison. Males of mature age often resort to the razor, and women to the rope. It is a curious feet thatbanging ia more common in the country than in the town. And when any greet sensation has been cre ated by a particular case of suicide, there is • loaqttently manifested - a tendency to imitate it, but this is also the case with regard .to other crimes. Among the Scandinafians the number of suicides is 120 nut of each million; among the tier mans 112; the French 101; Spanish and I Italians 80; Slavonians 47. • In• all coun tries three-fourths, of the suicides are melee, and the tendency to, sell destruc tion increases with age: A greater pro. portion of widowed 'persona than of single and of single than lof married resort to this crime; !Mt tba of divorced. : or sepa rated Is greater than all, being five times se large as that of the married. As regards the causes of suicide, the: Professor thinks that one-third of the awes of self-murder eradiated by men tal disease, and this class includes nearly half of thceeknmreitted by women; one ninth are canoed by physical suffering; one-eighth by losses of property, (nearly all of these aro men); one-tenth by fear of punishment, \ shame, or a morbid 'ten science; about] as many by family quarrels; and one-ninth by drunkenness, gambling, and other vices; the number caused by grief or disappointed love is 'exceedingly small. LAND on the Misslealppi is by no Mewls real estate. A town recently found itself 'Oll the other side of the river from the previonoday's location, the river hiviag cut off a bend in thonight; and planters frequesitly find themselves on a small Is. leod.er even miles-back from the bank, by similar freaks of the Father of Waters.

We well remember the painful shock experienced by the whole literary and scientific world when Hugh Lliller..driven to madness by excess of toil; took his own life.

By their death they can accomplish More than under or. dinary circumstances they could by a long life. So it was with the many thousands who, in the late struggle, rushed to the defence cf their country, when its life was threatened. They died 'to save the life of a nation. Stanton with his prodi gious working Rawer, at his post day and night, made himself a martyr for his coantry.

Twenty distinguished female authors show an average of above 71; fifteen re markable New England divines an aver age of 79. :The annual of Scientific Dia covery far 1,870 furnishes the age of OLD ty.seven men, eminent in science, who died the past year, and their average Is 60. Some of these were early cut off by adeldent; many exceeded 80. In 1866 a Para correspondent stated that most of thetalented men of France reached a Ma. to ago. M. - Viennet although 89 years of a was then in the fall enjoyment of hislntellectual powers; ?if. Do Seguir at 86 as as alive to all that was going ones he at 36; De Pongerville at 76 had just completed the revision of his fine tra station of Lucretia; Lebrun at 82 was as ale as ever; Villemain, the father of the - cademy, whom election took place in 182 was active at 76. There have been Em ens, the renowned divine, bright. and active as a boy at 90; Sir Isaac Newton at 84 as vigorous as at 40; Title conticraing in his Immortal art till 06; t e learned Lord Brougham speaking and writing till 88; Sir David Brewster interpreting science till .87; Faradny ex torting her secrete till 79; Plato discoure tag on Philosophy 'till 81; Thorwaldsen giving divine form and expression to marble till 73; Handel composing his grand oratorios till 75; and Lord Lynd hurst making two of his most powerful speeches at 86. Of seventy.one living authors In this country and • Europe, the average age is 73: . At the ago of 83, Richard H.

Mozart. Scipio, Charles Charlemagne Hannibal and others whoa, nuked renown at an early age, are ext•ep Omni cases, owing to remarkable genius; or overworked powera piiidneing death prematurely, • - Some have commenced their real life work late. Had they been early rut oil . they would have left mimument •wor thy of themselves. Sir Henry Spellman turned from agriculture at . fifty and be came one of the most learned lawyers of the kingdom. It was ltd the last few years of his lifo that -Peabody amassed the greater part of the large fortune which he so wisely and so generously his tributed. At thirty Astor had not made 'his first $1.000: (limed was a poor man at forty. had Cato or Plutarch died, be• fore eighty the former would. not have known Greek nor the latter Latin. The greatest poems of the world. the Iliad of Homer. the Divina Comedia of Dante, and the Paradise Loot of Milton, wen-the cre ations of comparative old age. Work then is not incompatible with long life; on the contrary it is favorable to It. Mil too, I think It was, who said that no idler over attained a great age_ .11arl Feioden. den possessed the workingpower, and had he attained.the age of a Palmerston, instead of having been the first in the 'Senate, he would have been the first in the nation, if not in the world. The en gravings of distinguished Statesmen,. Pro. tensional men or. Bishops usually repre sent healthy, rotund, yell developed men, able to digest material as well as intellec tual food, and to give sound opinions in politics or theology, unwarpoil or unsha ded by physical infirmities. While we urge work, vigorous. earnest wjirk, all through life, we Insist on per it for some valuablepurpose, smut; useful end. There should be no waste of power of any kind. T. store up knowledge for our own pleasure merely is as wrong so it is for the miser toi hoard up his gold or silver.. To acquire lit re. gardless of its utility or applicatinns par takes of the Bark age of Archimedes. At this time, when there are so ninny calls for useful work in all directions; to re lieve suffering. and to extend knowledge. we have no sympathy with the English clergyman described in Ilagg's life of Shelley. who for thirty yeara made it his sole occupation to read a three years' Course.in tireek. never deviating from it; recommencing when lie had completed it. Neither have we any sympathy with those who seem to delight in thinking they are working desperately hard and taking n great deal out of themselves; sorb a feel log is unnatural and morbid. Power should be sought, not as an ulti mate end but as a means of good. If in ROT wry one could acquire the strength of body of a Fenn and this were his only ote jest, then how contemptible would his power appear In comparison with that of the lion. or elephant, or even the recently built C'orliss engine of 1,200 horse power. Byron so used Ida lower of song, and Vol taire his intellectual strength as to turn a rich blessing into a direful curse. To de prive ourselves of all power to WOrk, or to be useful in the future, liv sinful indul gence, or the unnecessary expostire.or ex- I erosive labors of an hour, or day is short• sighted.' and wicked. • . To secure then the greatest working power, and use it the longest time for some good end should ho' the object of every one. Ta state all the ways in which this may be done is not our present pur pose. The strong should seek to retain .and increase their strength, and to this ben' end use it wisely;—the feeble - should seek to become strong, and never consider their. feebleness a sufficient excuse for re taxing all effortl. Caesar was nMrally of a slender make, 'and a delicate constitution, but ho did not make this any pretext for soil Indulgence, but nought for Arwood,. for bin infirmattes try-A sensible dllt and Judicious excreise, Humboldt. the weak and ailing boy. now- the strong man. anti through n long life used his great powers to increase the stores of human !canting. If one Ituri• Bred shouhl represent the maximum of effort one is capable of putting forthwith prudence ' fold WlSdout through a long and .successful life. and fifty the effort put forth.and this good done by one brilliant -and dashing feat performed ill a few seize exhausting all of one's power, then if'ffie latter course be pursuit, 'there would be a hies to the individual and world of a quantity represented by fifty. The great 1116. of mankind, however; are wasting a far larger prOP4rtlon.than.thls. This Is. a world of unimproved opportuni ties, wasted.energies, misdirected efforts and ruined hopes. In the west favored . partions of our land only one tenth the because the machinery of life is morn out. -"The glory of young men is their strength:" This strength it should be remembered, isnot a permanent power. to be hoarded up and used at pleas ure in the future, or to be handed down to one's heirs. To-day Rids ours. Yesterday It wails the plant or animal, electric flash or sun beam. Tomorrow it may be gone. How then shall it be used, Is the question? The better the object on which It is ex pended, the higher the life lived, the longer will it he oars, the more distant the infirmities of age, and the rester the good done. The truth of this has been demonstrated by the li'ves of . heroes, re formers,saints and martyrs. Burke was as yoting at 66 as Byron at 25. This is no plea far laziness or ignoble ease in order to pridonglffe. but for the greatest pos sible amount of esefol labor that, can be performed. Not for years merely do we plead, but for Years tilled with good and noble - deeds. '11) wear out not to rust out should be our aim, and to wearozufhvisely and judiciously. All needless friction should be avoided and thd machinery of life so kept in mo tion that the largest and best results may follow the smallest expenditure of force: his harmonlouily should our 'powers work that,our lives may flow onward 'like the fertilizing stream that gladdens the moun tain's side, enriches_ the }alloy's and - causes even the desert to rejoice. Then will there be no waste of - energy or stredgth, no excess of enervating pleas ure, but such use of- all our powers rut becomes one who would secure his own highest luippiness, promote the most good, and show the deepest sense of ac countability for his talents and opportuni ties. . v ...,,,,...-- : .-....,..—..,..."..,...,......,........,........0.....,J-........,..,,,,..,,,,,,,,,,,,...,...,..,, , ..1,,,,, , 5.e..1.e.:.,67 , ......r. ,,,,- - . .. ,, . 1 . . Members of the Graduating Close; thus far in your comet yon have found that no great attainments can be made or good done without work, long continued, earn est work,. Tolling you have grown strong. You have, too, I trust, found - pleasure as well as profit In work. As you now ,go forth from these walls, and gather the dust of life upon you, labors still awaits you. And never, while life is yours, may you by off the harness, or unbuckle the. armor. You . haveput your hands to the Iplow, and must not look back. Only when n motion will your light shine. To you, this day, this subject appeals with deep solemnity. A great 'life work lies ready for each one of you, and as theie years of study have bce-n a prepara tion for the work upon which you enter, , so the coming years may prepare you for the life work beyond. To one of your num ber the call hag already .come., While standing with you; and near ly ready to enter upon his life work, he was called to another greatf ield, not of freedom front activity and toll, but to enter as we hope on the delightful and unceasing employments of another life. Suddenly the messenger mine and with badness you bore his lifeless body to the grave, on the banks washed by the waters of the beautiful • river. That day and scene you will never forget. Could he have bees spared, he was determined to devote his life to the highest earthly work; and could he, with the experience he has now gathered, address you, he would with the earnestness and solemnity of eternity, say, 'S Work, work, work for the Master," Even death will bring rest only to the body. The spirit freed from its earthly fetters will unceasingly go on exploring wider fields, and making larger dis coveries of truth. For in heaven "they rest.not, day nor night." There God and Christ work. "My father worketh hither to and I work." Bat work there will be comparative rest; for' the Spirit's, powers will never be overtaxed, and no weariness or failure will dutethe delight of those Who become' workeritogitther with god. 1 i 1 —Baste nut !.Iteet not!"
