To the school directors of somerau't
County, and more particulai ly to those
who are opposed to lemalu teachers, it
would be well tor you to consider the
subject ot employing female teachers in a
higuer and broader sense than is generally
given to iu Teachers must possess phys
ical, moral aud intellectual qualifications,
to enable them to discharge tneir duties ei
fjctually. In phj steal qualifications females are as
well adapted to teaCaing as mates. The
female cousiiluliju is perhaps better fitted
oynaiu t: to eudure tne cjjdaein.n'. of
the S-'hool room ihan that of the lure,
since, as a class, leinaks are accustomed to
in door emploj inems. Experience has
clearly piocu ihul lemales, w hen projKTly
sustain by the school authorities, aud
enlightened public seulimeut, cau govern
as successfully as males.
The moral qualillcations of females is un
doubtedly superior to that of males. TLey
possess more gentle aud r-liueJ uianu.-rs,
purer morals, uaslaiuud wall gross aud
vulgar vices, an i istmctivj ovo lor chil
dren, and bcller tact tt the luauageiueut
ul a school.
Thti.- iutelL-clual capabilities are equal,
and in some points superior, for perform
ing the duly ot teacher, to that ol males.
1 heir quicaness of pjrc.'puon, their flu
ency ol expression, uud iheiraptuess iu up
ueucndiiig the dilliculties that embarrass
young miuds, render them peculiarly lit
(ed lor this profession. Aud since it is
UUM- Keueralty conceded that the minds ot
lema'es are as susceptible ol improvement
a lhse ol males, wheie ihey enjoy the
same lacililiea, there Can be no good rea
son, so tar as qualifications are considered,
why females snould not stand on a level
w itu uiales in the teachers' profession.
The truly qualitied female teacher npjiears
to exert au intluenee ol refinement iu the
school room, peculiar alone to her sex.
ll is true that all are hot born teachers,
neither male nor female; yet tins does not
prove thai all lemilja arc ua.'l' to leach
any more than that all males are qualified.
The w ell qualitied female w hose lieurl is in
the work, is the very person to mould ami

UMCiijis ot cither sjx miy sicjj I well m

PATENT OFFICE.
As everj one is interested ia the in;eu
tion of labor saying machinery and ia the
method of obtaining patents for the same,
a letter descriptive of the V. S. patent
Odioe and its workings, may prove inter

Interior Department and occupies the
principal part ol the large building de

between the Capitol and the While
House. The Model Booms, consisting ol
four spacious halls, each about 270 leet
long, occupy the second lloor, and contain
a model ot every patent issued since l&!j,
except in cases where the invention could
not be represented by a model. These are
arranged in glass cases, on which are cards
indicating their contents, and are grouped
under 145 classes, and subdivided for con
venience of reference. The reader need
ouly consider that about l'JO.OtK) patents
have been granted, and that about ir.uw
are now granted annually, to form son.e.
idea ot the extent ot the Model I looms,
and of tlie immense number of models.
stored there.
The officer? of the Fatcnt Office com
prise a commissioner, an assistant commis
sioncr, and a board of three examiners in
chief, appointed by the President; a chief
clerk, an examiner ot interferences, an ex
amiuer of labels aud trade marks, 22 prin

also employed several draftsmen, a Urgo
clerical torce, onsistiug m.tiy of ladies,
mainly auxiliury to the exauiiuiug corps,
aud occupied principally in copyiug,
apd a number of messengers.

kindred subjects, and with the aid ot hit
three assistant, he ex.aiu.inc3. all applica

to decitle as Vo the novelty of the invention.
II he decides iu favor of granting a pilenl
to the applicaut, his decision is final, and
the patent issued upon the payment uf the
second fee. Ljli-mi t bedside, adversely,
he must state explicitly to the applicant
th 0 reason ol rejection. The applicant or
his attorney may then amend the claims,
as set forth in the specification, and ask
for a re examination. It the second de

but if advene, the case Is lost, unless ap

W11.1. IL Ksrx,
Box 070, Washington, D. C.
Since the waters of the Casselman and
j Yo:ighoighcny have lieen so bountifully
J slocaud with lhat splendid game and ta
, ble fish, the Black Bass, the following
will doubtless be quite interesting to a
! large number ol out readers:
'lhat noted disciple ot Isiac Walton,
, Genio G. Scott, Esq.. who has recently le-
turned from a successful fishing trip along
the Delaware liver, lurnished the tipirt of
tlie Timet wi.h a cLapler on bass fishing.
What Mr. Scolt term the "Algoniite,"'
is named by many of our fishermen as
j "Helgramiie," '"Hojack," Xipper"and
("Crampus." Following is the suiistauce
of Mr. Scott's somewhat lengtuy descrip
tion of the popular fish and ihe mode of
' capturing iu
Ihe marked peculiarities ot this most
excellent fish tor the table, whether boiled,
broiled or fried, is annually growing in
favor wiih the public, because of superior
quality as a food tish and its case 01 cul
ture, while it is one of the most prolific
fishes ot the fresh waters uf the country,
whether of lakes or rivers. It is a hardy
fish, aLd 1 s uundrcary would sav, a "wo-
bust tish. Only introduce a single faint
ly ot it into a stream or lake, and it will
at once commence lo take control, and
thrive and increase against myriads of
I perch aud pickerel. All it asks is water
I well stocked wilh chubs, shiners and olh
! er minnows, and it w ill fatten on them.
j liesides overturning the stones in the mar-
I gin ol the water 11 inhabits lor crawfish
: aud algomilcs, and gleaning the surface ot
llics and bugs, ll is a most industrious,
: spirited tish. Its id iv when hooked by
; the angler is more vieorous than that of
any other game fish or Us size, not except
ing the brook trout. Ot course, therefore,
it has become quite a favorite wilh the an
gler, though difficult lor a novice to capt
ure. In rivers its Imottat is In deep wa
ters, near rocky shores of ledges ot rock,
lr 1111 whence il barges on the reels, and in
a stream near a vegetable bottom, or
whence tussocks form a convenient stiade
aud burg place.
A three yeor old bass usually weighs
Irom two aud a half to three pounds and a
yeai ling about pound. The yearling is
not as dark colored as the adult fish, but
is equally as gamey.
All along the slioies in the Delaware
river are to be seen shoals of j-oung black
lw.8, holding all other fry in terror.
Every now and then may be seen a young
one rushing at a shoal ot minnows as large
as itself aud scattering them in all direc
tions, some leaping out of the water to get
away from lbs liule monster. The rays
of its Uiis but the tront durcal aip soil, aud
the only difference between a baby bass
and its parents, is the dark end ot the
caudal, the shortness ol Ihe spiked rays ol
the dorsal, and being longer in proportion
lo its weight. Like the suapjier of joung
bluetish ot the Atlantic shores, it assumes
shape, circumstances and power immedi
ately upon leaving the egg,
'1 ne lavorile bait lor bass is ulgomile,
bogart, or uipjer, aud is known by differ
ent names iu different localities, and is
found under stones, along the shores of all
waters inhabited by black bass. The
stones under w hich :t is lound are always
partially submerged, and it is slated that
black bass.on every rising of the waters,
turn up the stones with their noses in
searchlug for algomitesand craw-fish, two
lavorite baits, but the algomitc is the best.
Baits for black bass are numerous, and
among the best tor all bass, except the
largest ones, are thegrasshopiier, the black
cricket, and beetle. The most attractive
llics for the black bass should imitate the
yellow and neutral tint of the grassbop
per. The algomite is as lough as India rub
ber, and tlie hook should therefore impale
it so thai the end of ihe tail will cot cover
the point of the hook and thus prevent
hooking the bass when it bite j 1 he best
way to bait is lo iusert the point of the
honk opposite the lower of the three pairs
of legs ou the upderaide of ihe bait, and
run 11 under the ekin to the tail.
The nipjier, as it is called by some, is
armed wliti a small pair of nippers, in
stead of mouth, with which il generally
uiis the angler while bailing, but not so as
to hurt- Ins black as jet all over, and a
most attractive bait lor all fresh water
tishes.
To si ill hail from a boat ou the river, se
lect a p.-ee lor anchoring your boat, either
a short distanc above or below a rapid, or
off from a rocky shore. Let it be in a cur
rent strong enough to carry your bait some
;0 or 40 feet from the boat. In summer,
and uutil the middle of September,
bait with algomite, crawfish, grasshop
pers, crickets, or beetle. In September,
anu untu me cu4 01 mp season, late in
October, bail Vi'Uh miunow on a single
100k. merely inserting the hook through
both jaws, aud let the bait play natuially.
I se no linker on the line iu any case, as
the swivel is generally enough ; but it not,
put a split shot on the Ua 1 one foot tron.t he
bait. Never permit slack line, or you
cannot fiel a bite. As soon as the bass
heis the hook, he will either jump out of
water or try 10 overrun and get slack line.
Do nol play tlsi with &. too hard draw
on lie l(-ie; L,u,t keep reeling up gently,
pyyer uind his acrobatic movements, leaps
aud somersaults above the water, aud
when neariug the boat do not let him
touch the side, or he will use his tail as a
lever to enable him to reject the hook.
Never be sure of juur fish until you have
landed him, ucd yuu will find that he will
engage all your attention.

be received until October 1st, loi a princi
pal to take charge of the three Berlin
