On the morning of the 10th. ulL, Mr. and Mrs. John W.

A short time after the father w hile watering thf; horses near the house, saw the child sitting in his chair by the window and that something was wrong with him Hastening into the bouse he was met by him emu dc toward the door and saying "Papa, lire burn Jimmie." The clothes w ere in a manner burned off him, and the skin and flesh of his body burnt and seared. He also had evidently inhaled the Same and heat so that his lungs were in the same condition. What the brave little fellow had suffered, as the woolen clothes burned slowly on his body, can only be imagined. "From the time his father met him until his death, three hours after he made no complaint though he talked in his childish way until a lew minutes of his death.

On Monday last, at Shiremanstown, Cumberland county, while the children ot tbe village school were at play, a boy named Hupp, aged about ten years, but small for bis age, liccanie separated from the rest of tbe children and strolled into a lane or alley when a roughly dressed man came along and seizing hold of him led him away, threatening to kill him if he made any noise. Thus quieted the stran ger managed to get the child to the rail road near White Hill when tbe kidnapper bade tbe boy cross a fence. Tbe boy man aged, however, to get his captor over the fence first and then took to his heels. The kidnapper threatened to shoot the boy it be did not atop, but the little fellow had an uncle living near by, toward whose house he ran for dear life and succeeded in reaching tbe place out of breath and frightened so badly that he could give no accouut of himself for some time. The kidnaper escaped before the boy could describe him. The same evening the boy was returned to his parents w ho had be come much alarmed concerning him. Varli'U Mirror. Fewilewtiary KtatUllra. The annual report ot tbe Inspector of the Western Penitentiary shows that dur ing 1875 the average number ot prisoners was 509. During the year tbe business ot employing the convicts was rather dull. The cigar business was greatly depiessed, though 871.576 cigars were made. The total revenue of the prison amounted lo 102. S71 48. of w hich 17.339 40 U still due from the counties of the Common wealth. Tbe expenditures were $63,- 871 48. During the year there were but six deaths. In the same time tbe prison ers earned $ 1.653 70 by over work. One nundred and eighty-seven prisoners were discharged during the year, of whom seventeen were colored. The greatest number of the prisoners claimed Pennsyl vania as tbe land of their nativity, aud j 68.26 per cent of the convicts could read and w rite. Ot the whole number S3 per cert attended school during their confine ment Thirty-six per cent, of the prison population were moderate drinkers, and but six per cent were temperate. Among the prisoners there was one postmaster, three bigamists and one mur derer ol the first degree. There was one prisoner sentenced lo 20 years, an J one life prisoner. Of the w hole number ol prisoners Allegheny contributed 214. The prison was remarkably healthy dur ing the year. All tbe deaths were caused by pulmonary consumption, and those who died were in bad health when they entered the prison. During the year 20,711 books were distributed among the prisoners, the subject matter of the vol umes was as follows: History, biography, miscellaneous, novels, morals, science, poetry, travel, magarines and German. It is the general impression of the officers of the institution that the prisoners are greatly improved by a uniform system of kindness. Vratrlical Ulatls the Lihimrx f QieHtaa' Half a dozen yoi'og men met to eon aider ways and menu. a. After full discoa aion, ihey laid down four principles tor their guidance, which may be briefly stated thus : ' 1. Not to ttfc 5c tle library, tut S. "To rely on tie existence of a Je. mand for good reading, and the ability of ahelf ol books- such as we proposed col lecting, to begin to supply the demand. The support on which we should rey to be that of those who toougbt it M their advantage to subscribe or take stock.' -' ' ' 2. 'To select the firat boot, with this aim, from the fresh pablieations of the f fiA coniA limp, tho&e U)i a UIUIUL, a.- I whose popularity seemed likely to be short , i 4. That donations of books should be on condition that the trustees should be ics" ana secona rate wx.ks irom tilions here. So much of the welfare of a library depends on the "first impressions" it makes, thit it is evidently very bad pol icy to oblige readers to search through a mass of unattractive matter. Better eiMy or eighty volumes of fresh, attractive reading, than five hundred "dead" or mor ibund books. . Our village committee "drew upastate- ment in a live penny pass-uooK, iieaaeu :uant wittiin-'ouoys ana oy mm prwccui wiih the words. F.

The projectors then subscribed, thus se curing to themselves the direction of the enterprise for a year. Their first pur chases were "voyages and travels, popu lar illustrated books in science, a new novel by a well known author, a new book on gardening or house building." They were favored by a gift ot abitil 120 standard worts, lrom a literary socie ty, but did not place new books on the same shelves with the old. judging that they would attract the eye better My them selves. By the advice of a librarian m a neigh boring town, tuey purcuaseu sets oi uie magazines. Dickens' novels, Kane's, Bayard Taylor's, Livincstone's and other voyages and travels. Miss Mulock s and other" popular novels of the same class, and such books as "The Professor," the "Autocrat of the Breakfast Table, sc These are mentioned in the older of their popularity, judging from the demand on libraries. Alterwards were added such works as "Knight's Pictorial Galleries of Art,' "Liudley's Botany, with Colored Plates,' "An Illustrated "Book on the Horse,' "Homes without Hands," "Boy's Play book of Metals," ' Illustrated Bible Dic tionary," &c, all books w hich rarely come, into the hands of private purchas ers. The writer thus describes their suc cess : "In the course of the year forty five shares were taken and paid for, and sixty or seventy annual subscriptions were taken. We received also a considerable number of donations. At the end of a vear we had over five hundred picked vol umes on our shelves, and on the Wednes day and Saturday oflernoons, w hen the library was opened, people came into tow n from their farms live or ten miles uistant. as well as from neighboring villages, to take out books. In one village the young people formed a reading club, and jointly subscribed to the library, taking out books to read aloud at their meetings on w inter evenings. Our little circle ot alut 123 members keeps over 100 volumes in con stant circulation. QnrUmani School. Editor ok the Herald. ill you please give this article a space in your pa- Ier: Common means mutual, equal toral'. The word as applied to our schools is de cidedly appropriate, lor that is just what our schools are, open to all under the age of twenty one. Kich and poor all have the same advantages lor developing the mental faculties w hich God has blessed them with. All are on a level no matter of what race or color they mav be. Our Commonwealth has wisely made ample provisions for the education of all, in or der that they may become useful to them selves as well as useful citizens. It is a blessing indeed if properly appreciated by the rising generation, and presents quite a contrast to the educational faculties ot which our forefathers were possessed. Ia their time school houses were not within the reach of every scholar as they are at present They had to go a great distance to school and many of them who lived re mote from neighborhoods in which schools were kept, would hire there services to citizens residing near school houses, and would work in the morning before and in the evening after school to pay tor their hoarding besides having lo pay fur their tuition. The poor were not provided for as they arc now. The schools then were subscription ones and a term lasted but three months. But scholars appreciated and improved their time more than some do now, at least I know I did. It is true there were not as many branches taught as there now is but there was greater and more rapid advancement made. I think it would be better for the advancement of scholars if they were taught the several branches separately, and w ere compelled to study each one until they had acquired a thorough knowledge ot it instead of taking all the higher branches atone time which over taxes tbe mental faculties and impedes progress. Tuis last method how ever had its origin when the fifth wheel was added lo our common school system. Our County superintendents wishing to report great advancement under the new system, had the teachers largely swell the number ot branches, and compell the pu pils to study nearly all the branches taught in the school at one time. I do not how ever, find fault with the present County Superintendent nor the teachers under him, for they teach but as they have been taught I must commend the teachers of our district and can truthfully say that we have as noble a corps of teachers this sea son as could be desired, w ith but few excep tions. Our schools are in a flourishing condition. But it now requires a five month term, as formerly, to educate the present generation. Above all I object to the extravagance of our State Superin tendent He has asked our Slate Govern ment for an appropriation of f 15,000 to establish a Normal School at Philadelphia during the Centennial. I consider it not only absurd but excessively extravagant a gross imposition upon tbe tax payers of tbe Commonwealth. My idea is that all the hoaor our State w ill receive for it from , other States and foreign nations, will be lar under the cost Especially if it be one where the mode or moral as well as of in tellectual education is taught One thing is certain, if I were called upon to vote for an appropriation of this kind, my sanction to it could not be granted tor any consid eration. There are always two extremes, one too little the other too 'great, and the amount of money asked for could certainly be better applied. I ndoublcdry 1 w ill meet with opposition in this milter, but every one has a right to his opinion. The foregoing are my true and sincere convic tions on the subject i ours truiy. Nasht V.

It is tbe case with every Legisla ture that certain measures appear before it and there remain in a balf completed state, subjects for almost interminable discussions and verita ble bones of contention nntil one be comes tired almost of their mention. Under this category is tbe boom bill, wbicb, steering clear of Scvlla in tbe Senate, teems almost destined to ground upon Cbarybdis in tbe House. Ad approach to it on first reading in tbe House on Monday night was tbe signal wbicb aroused tbe incendiary characters of tbat body. A lengthy bill wbicb preceded it on tbe calen dar baring been read, Mr. Crawford, representative from tbe city of Brotberly Love, of last years notori ety, immediately sprang to bis feet and moved an adjournment of tbe House, wbicb last year he affected in a very summary manner. Mr. Endrick, of Frankliu, ever walcbful of tbe interests of tbe lumbermen. wbo dwell oa tbe sunny banks cf the usqutbanna, with an eloquence bora of eirnestness', said: "Mr. Speaker, I hope tbat motion will Dot prevail." To ibis, another representative of tbe Centennial city, tbe fat aud pugilis tic Faunce, replied: "I'd like to know what objection there can Ie to ad- jouring at ibis late bour." ne didn't snow of course, tbat tbe boom bill stood next on tbe calendar. Tbe teas and nays on tbe motion to ad- jurD were demanded, but tbe call showed less than a quorum voting. Tbe seats so well filled a moment be fore, now appeared vacant, so fir as any responses to names were con cerned. Tbe speaker, taking in tbe situation wbicb, by '.he way, be is more able to do this year than be was last, by reason of experience at a glance, ordered tbe tar of tbe House, wbicb, fjr fear of misappre hension, we will state means 6imply tbe doors of tbe ball, to be closed and tbe roll to be called, w hen 104 mcn- btr-i, three more tbau a quorum of tbe whole Iiuase answered to their names. Tbe rule of tbe House compelling members to voto wben called upon by tbe Speaker, waa then read. Mr. Jackson desired tbat tbe call for tbe yeas and nays on the question of ad journing for tbe night bo withdrawn. i ne opeaser, however, promptly stat ed tbat a quorum being prcsept tbe call must b proceeded with, wbicb was accordingly done, and tbe roo t;oq to adjourn defeated by a vote of yeas 1", nays Sd, and amidst tbe re joicing of its friends tbe boom bill waa read tbe first time ia tbe House.
