and benefit of our happy Union, and tho well considered compact by which it is sustained. A basis of calculation, ex hibited by past experience, will give our country a population of thirty millions in less than ten years from the preset time of eighty millions in thirty years, to come and at one hundred millions at the close of the present century I But! mere numbers are of no moment, com pared with moral elements, in a nation's greatness. Tho vital strength and sta bility of the United States, as a people, consists in the substantial interest which each individual has in the permanency of tho30 glorious institutions, which were baptized in the blood of our revolutionary struggle, and handed down to U3 as the aacred legacy of our fathers. Peril, or destroy these, and we peril or destroy the share of sovereignty and equality which they were designed to scoure, alike to the richest and poorest, to the high est and humblest in the land. The experience of more than three fourths of a century proves, I am persuaded, that the American people, in tho main, truly appreciate the beneficent structure and beautiful opera tiou of our republican system. We have been assailed by an insidious and open hostility from abroad, -and have, at times before the present, W.cn encountered by both tho concealed and palpable spirit of faction at home; vet the Constitution still stands as wide ly and firmly riveted in the affections of the honest masses of American freemen, ns at any former period of our history. The more fruitful sources of our na tional prosperity, undoubtedly consist in the freedom, industry and intelligence of our people: and in the rich natural re fources of our country; united to an ad vantageous commercial intercourse with a warring world. But there is one ele ment which wo should cherish as more potent than all these: it is the protection and encouragement afforded by the union of the State, under an adequate and .table government. To this and the vir tue of our citizen, under the smiles of Heaven, wc arc more indebted as a peo ple, than to any other circumstance or re lation. No one who has studied our his tory, an. marked the spirit in which our union was formed, can avoid the convic tion that our government so far as con cerns the stability of this codfederacy, must be one of opinion rather than force. Born in compromise and conciliation, it must be cherished in the same spirit; it must present itself to every member of this renubiic in the welcome cuise of friendship and protection not in over bearing pride, or as wielding the strong arm of power. We have before us the plain, written compact of our fathers, to which they re fleeting v consented and subscribed, and so bound us who have succeeded them. Its blessings and its benefits have been felt throughout long years of unexampled prosperity. If wc would change any of its provisions, let us, with at least com mon honesty and manliness, pursue the mode of amendment which is pointed out, with admirable precision, in the noble in strument itself. But until this is done, those amongst us. who, from whatever mo tive, or under whatever pretext, either openly repudiate any of its plain provi sions, or, covertly retreating under the cloak of secret organization, seek to vio late its spirit, or avoid compliance with its clear behests, dishonor the faith of r their fathers and and deny their own pal pable and solemn obligations. Entertain ing these views, how can any American patriot regard, with the least degree of complacency, the continued and embit tered excitment of one section of the countrv against tbe domestic institutions of another; or the more recent organiza tion of secret societies throughout the U niou, based upon doctrines of exclusion and proscription, utterly at war with our National and State constitutions, and obnoxious to the liberal spirit of Ameri can republicanism! What admirer of the venerated father of his country, but mu?t now feel, with resistless force, his solemn warnings against secret societies for po litical ends, as placing a powerful engine in the hands of the selfish and designing, and enabling them not only to acquire power unworthily but alo to sap and destroy the most sacred principles of our government? In these reflections upon certain polit ical organizations, if I rightly compre hend my own motives, I am actuated by no mere partisan hostility or resentment. "Were I to say les.s at the present moment, I should stifle my clearest convictions of right and shrink from a duty I owe to the people of Pennsylvania, who have so generously sustained me in various pub lic relations iu the past. Nay, more: I ehocld, by 6ilence in this ragard, fail properly to reflect that constancy and un swerving faith which our noblo Common wealth has ever evinced towards the prin ciples of our national compact in refer ence to the freedom of conscience and universal religious toleration; and also to the wise doctrines of popular and State sovereignty, and the inherent right of eelf-government. During the brief period, which remains of my official term I shall readily and cheerfully co-operate with the General Assembly in all proper measures, to ad vance the public weal: and I earnestly invoke upon our labors, and the labors of those who mav follow us in our public vocation, the kindly care and keeping of tnai ureat ana uemnceni; juiug holds the destinies of nations as well as individuals, as it were, in the hollow of his band, and without whose continued smile there can be neither national or in dividual prosperity.

I have often heard it remarkod and complained of by travelers and strangers, that they never could get a true answer from any Irish peasant as to distances, when on a journey. For many years I myself thought it most unaccountable. If you meet a peasant on your journey, aud ask him how far, for instance, to Ballinrobe, he will probably say it is "tlircc short miles." You travel on, and are informed by the nest peasant you meet, that " it is five long miles." On you go, and the next will tell you, "Your honor, itis four miles or about that same." The fourth will swear "If your honor -tops altJircc miles, you'll never get there!' But on pointing to a town just before you, and inquiring what place tuat is, no re plies, "Oh ! p'aze your honor, that's Ball inrobe, sure enough!" "Why, you said it was more than three miles off!" (,Oh yes! to be sure and sartain, that's from my own cabin, plaze your honor. We're rio scholars in this country. Arrah, how can we tell any distance, plaze your hon or, but from our own little cabins? No body but the schoolmaster knows that, plaze your honor." Thus i3 the mystery unravoled. Wrben you ask any peasant the distance of the place you require, he never computes it from where you then are, but from his own cabin; so that, if you asked twenty, in all probability you would have as many different answers, and not one of them correct.

A Teachers Convention was held at the Fenncrsville Schoolhouse, in Hamilton town ship, Monroe county, on the first day of Jan- ary, 1850, for the purpose of discussing some of the most important subjects connected with the interests of common school education. The day was propitious, and a large num ber of TeacherSjjKjd citizens were in attend- ance. 1 he meeting was called to order at o o'clock P. M. On motion, Charles S. De trick, County Superintendenr, was appointed President, and Hexuy Albert, Secretary; after "which, the president, in a most eloquent manner, stated the object of the meeting, say ing that the government of schools, the mat ter and manner of teaching, he thought, should be the subjects for consideration this evening. Henry Albert then addressed the Conven tion on the subject of school government, and in the course of his remarks, stated that he had tried different modes of government and found that the best and most successful, was, to make your pupils believe you love them; ex ert every power to convince them that you arc grieved if they do not improve ; and he urged the necessity of all teachrs to abandon corporal punishment. Charles S. Detrick followed, with a most affecting appeal on the subject of school gov ernment; of each teacher feeling the respon sibility, he or she is under, while endeavoring to train the young. He also made some re marks on teaching Arithmetic, and urged the teachers to be particular to have a review every week, which would have a tendency to impress on the mind of the pupils, those things most adapted to business. Henry Albert spoke very earnestly, of the importance of introducing a series of books into all the schools, and urged the teachers to go forward as torches to enlighten and convince the superstitious, and never shrink from any part of their duty, no matter how great and keen the opposition may be. He also spoke at length on the matter and man ner of teaching. William S. Detrick made some very ap propriate remarks on the utility of the Black bord, and set forth in a very glowing manner the importance of calling up the classes, and having them to demonstrate their work before the teacher. During the evening there were some very lively discussions, on the art of teaching, and all who were present seemed to enjoy themselves exceedingly well. The following Resolutios nwere then adop ted : Resolved, That it is the duty of the Direc tum of the several districts to supply each school with cards, for teaching the alphabet, and a blackboard. Resolved, That each teacher shall enforce the study of all the rules of Arithmetic, and illustrate the same on the blackboard. Resolved, That we consider the present salary of teachers insufficient, and that after the present school-year, we will not teach, without the salary be according to the qual ification of the teacher. Resolved, That we think it to be the duty of the Directors of the different "districts to make a distinction between teachers and class them. If an individual is found qual ified to teach Orthography, Reading and Wri ting, to be classed No. 1; if Reading, Wri ting and Arithmetic, No. 2; if Orthography, Reading, Writing Arithmetic and Geogra phy, No 3. Iffouud qualified to teach all the common branches of an English educa tion, No 4, and that the salary shall be in proportion to the number they sustain. Resolved that this meeting adjourn to meet arrain on the 3d of February next at the Court House in the Borough of Stroudsburg, at 3 o'clock P. M. HENRY ALBERT. Secretary. CARD TO THE PUBLIC.

The Proprietor has succeeded (from dircc tions of Professor Stone) in combining the Oil and Lime so perfectly, that the taste of. the Oil, which is naueseous to persons gen erally, is entirely.overcomc, and it can be ta ken by the most delicate females with pleas ure. And as regards the benefit of this ar ticle over the pure oil, the following case, by Prof. Stone, is sufficient to convince the most skeptical. The young lady was 24 years of age "Her disease was one of unmixed phthisis, which had been expected to terminate in the course of a few months, fataily. The upper part of both her lungs was filled with tuber cles; and in some places were beginning to solten, The case was evidently a bad one The treatment of cod liver oil was at first used, but without'marked imnrovement. The phosphate of lime wns then administered with the oil, and the result, as in the case of many others, was soon apparent. The patient was rapidly getting well." Caution. On account of the great repu tation of this Compound for all Lung Com plaints, the subscriber would caution the af flicted against using any except that manu factured by him, as he has the only recipt in the United States for combining the Pure Oil with Lime in a proper manner.
