compelled the frequent use ot the word

Henry UI. 12(10. a statute was enacted
that 22 grains of hat from the middle
ot the ear, a ell dried, should weigh a
penny weight. of a hu h 20 should go to the
O'ltice." but finally tbe pennyweight came
to lie divided into 24 grains.

tbe death of Mr. John Uavis. on tne
morning of tbe 23d of February, 1373, he
went to hi barn in hjs usual ueaitn, ana
by the kick ot a vicious horse, was sua
denlr and unexpectedly ushered into
eternity, without having had the privilege
of BDeakine to anv one. He was born in
Dauphin county. Pa. January 13, 1810,
and his age, therefore, was 68 years, 1
month and 10 day. He had been A rcsi
dent of Somerset county for many years.
and was a consistent and earnest member
ot tbe Evangelical Lutheran Church for
many Tears. 1'bs church is deeply sen
sible of the loss she baa sustained. Tbe
community mourns sincerely lb depart
ure of one ot it noblest citizens. He leaves
a wife and nine children, who are, indeed
sorelv bereaved, for he was kind and af
fectionate, and wa tenderly loved. We
deeply sympathize with the family, and
ran only say, l ou neea not sorrow as
other w to have no hope." He wa fol
lowed by large concourse of people, who

The Cocstt Bcperihtesdrkt. We
copy tbe following from tbe ItcAool Jour-
iuil e uearuiy cummeou to me care
ful consideration of the School Direct
ors :
On the second Tuesday ol May next,
county, city, and borouen auperintenu
ents are to he elected. This is really a
more important ejection, than that of
members of the Legislature or even that of
Governor. The Superinlendency is J-
successful w hen tbe right man is in
the office, and it is never successful unless
he is. We can name Superintendents in
Pennsylvania white worth to the counties,
cities here they labor cannot be estimat
ed in dollars and They are literal
ly doing more than ail other agencies com
bined, to lift up the people to a higher
level ol intelligence and morality. And,
unfortunately, we can name other whose
services could be dispensed with without
incurring loss ol any kind. They are dead
weights, drawing their salaries and doing
nothing. We write to ask school Direct
ors to begin to look around tor tbe man
they want to serve them as Superintend
ent'fbr the next three yean. It you now
have biin keep him; if you have him not,
light your candle and go in search of bim.
You can hardly pay a good man too much,
and a poor mm you do Dot want at all.
Skepticism. Now-a-days people doubt
nearly every thing. Tbey forget that tbe
known facts ot to-day constitute the knot
ty problems of hypothesis but a few year
since. Unsuccessful practitioner of medi
cine quote the doubts and uncertainties
experienced by Sir Astley Cooper, who
lived not long after Harvey discovered
the circulation of the blood, as evidence
that but little is known ot medicine aside
from conjecture, entirely ignoring tbe fact
that their competitors are daily healing
diseases which Cooper thought incurable.
Is not such ignorance criminal T Catarrh,
the most common and most incurable of
all chronic diseases, readily yields to tbe
healing and soothing properties ot Dr.
Sage's Catarrh Remedy when used with
Dr. Pierce's Nasal Douche. If the (use be
complicated tbe blood must be enriched
by Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov
ery. No remedy yet known equals the
Discovery in permanently curing affections
ol the lungs, liver, blood and skin. If af
flicted w ith consumption try Dr. Pierce'
Pleasant Purgative Pellets. They are a
a sure cure. Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes,
in a recent address, speaking of our pro
gress, said. 4 'To those of my generation
this modern world, which most of you
take as a matter of course, is a perpetual
source of wonder, a standing miracle.
Science and art have so changed the as
pect ot every day life that one of a certain
age might well believe himself on anoth
er planet or in another stage of existence."
No longer doe the sedentary man or tbe
delicate woman sutTer from torpid liver,
constipation or drastic medicine. Science
has demonstrated that the concentrated
extracts are more potent and reliable than
the hUL'e doses resorted to bv our forefath
ers, hence the great sale and popularity ol

perously tot more than a generation. By
their joint labors and frugality they accu
mulated a large estate in land, property
and money, which were held and treated
pretty much as in common. But in time
they grew old, sod commenced paying the
debt of nature, one by uno and with al
most tbe same precision and order with
which they had lived. Abraham was the
first to depart, some fifteen years ago; then
a sister, and after ber Benjamin; next
another sister, and lastly, on the 14th in
stant, Peter Wilhelm died, after a brief
illness, aged 83 years. There still re
mainj another sifter, ripe for death high
up in eighty. All ot tueut have Ijyed be
yond their four-score.
true to their arrangement, none of
luese unique persons ever married, and as
their number diminished, their posse?-
sions concentrated.
Though very close and worldly in one
sense, in others they were generous and
confiding. Many thousands of dollars did
they lose by extending a helping hand to
tnose unwortny ot it. .ever a dol
lar did they make by speculation. AH
must and did come to them in the regular.
old-fashioned wayj but a good deal left
them in the modern ways of getting at the
confiding.
in latter years their minds and actions
took a benevolent And religious turn.
They had near kindred, but did not care
to divide much of tbeir fortune with them.
About ten years ago tbey made known
to their nefgUbors that tbey bad resolved
a fine church should be erected oo one of
their farms, for the benefit ot the people.
The community was asked to contribute
what they could, and the ilbelms would
foot tbe balance. The result was the
finest church edifice ( Reformed) by tar in
the county, with an organ and equipments
in full keeping. It was understood tb&t
this was only the beginning ot the benevo
lence and charities which they intended to
bestow in tbeir last years.
None of the family had any education.
and the men especially in their latter
years felt the deficiency keenly. They
determined to do something for tbe spread
of education and religion, but unfortun
ately. Peter, the last of the male part of
the family, who had thi matter most at
heart, postponed his good intentions too
long. On the 22d of February last he
made his will, disposing of what is said to
be tne largest estate in his county. Its full
contents are not yet known, but it is un
derstood that a bequest of $20,000 was
made to tbe community in bis county
hich would contribute the larg
est sum to this gift for educa
tional purposes. No doubt there were
similar donations, but all have come to
naught in consequence of tbe will not
having been made sooner. By a stati-t 2 of
Pennsylvania no bequests of ih'.s kind can
ta'te effect nnless the will is made one
month before the death of the testator.
The time in this case was eight days too
short. No doubt some forgotten heirs will
profit by this procrastinating act ot an old
man.
Soon another death, and then the well
known name of Wilhelm will be extinct
for tbe first time in a hundred years so tar
as this family is concerned, but it will not
be forgotten. "B.," in Cumberland Dttitg

ure to send you a few items of Mineral
Point news.
It will undoubtedly surprise tbe readers
ot the Herald to see a few piragraphs
from this place.
It affords me tbe greatest pleasure to in
form tbe good Murphy men of Somerset
county that the National Christian Tem
perance Union of Mineral Point, notwith
standing all opposition, still remaius im
movable. And is winding up its first year
with fresh proofs of its usefulness. The
Union meets regularly every Sat u Jay
evening. At a meeting on March 9, the
following officers were elected n serve tor
the term of six months : Hoc Joseph D.
Miller. President; George W. Curley,
Yice-Preaident; Z. F. Snvder, Second
Vice President; R. H. DuiL Secretary;
Kev. A. j. ureenwait, uorresponding
Secretary; Jonathan GrowalL Treasurer.
Jonathan L. Bittner, Sergeant-at-arms;
Jobn .U. oliersperger, w. U. Weirs,
John O. GrilUth, John R. Haines, sad E.
IL Werner, Executive Committee. The
success of this organization is tbe result of
the incessant efforts and the promptness ot
our honoiable President and the liberal
church members of our vicinity. Some
ot them manifest the greatest possible in
terest in the education of tbe hearts snd
heads of our membets above tbe tbrall-
dom of the intoxicating cup. While
this Union lasts, the people of Mineral
Point and yicinity have high and gratify
ing prospects spread before them
and tbeir children; and when our eves
shall be turned to behold for the last time
the sun in heaven, may we not see him
shining on the abased and aberrant mem
bers ot a once honorable, virtuous, and
"glorious Union" ot Murphyites.
