Herald I noticed something in the Herald, dated July 9, which took every teacher by sur prise, when they noticed the tuition ot the coming normal scuool?, to oe f . e, as a body ot teachers, were looking for the tuition to come down, rather than go op. and. if ;t moves on in this way, before . few terms more, it will be equal to a col lege term. The tuition has been $6 lor the last twelve or f.fteen years. And one dollar now will buy as much as two dol la re would have bought, when the tuition of the normal schools were only f 0. And I think aDy normal teacher who charges more than f U does not consider the stand ing ol many of the teachers. Some of our first-e lass teachers only received f 22 per mouth lust year. And I am certain that the wsl. s will still be lower for the com ing winter. And I do hope that the nor mal teachcis w ill look into this matter and bring the tuition down to the old standard where it stood long belore. n. Xew Lexington, Jnly 13, 1879. The Xatiosal Complaint. Dyspep sia is the national complaint. Almost ev ' ery other man or woman you meet has it, and the re ult is that the number of psen do remedies for it is as numerous as Pha raoh's host. They are lor the most part worthless. There is, however, a search ing eradicant ot this distressing and obdu rate malady, one whose genuine merits long since raised it to a foremost place among the staple medicines of America. Hosteller's Stomach Bitters extirpates dysiicpeia with greater certainty and prompiitude than any know n remedy, and is a most genial invi-orant, apietizer and aid to secretion. These are not empty as sertions, as thousauds of our countrymen and women who Lave experienced lis ef fects are aware, but are backed up by ir refragable proofs rejieatedly laid lfore the public. The Biiters also promote a regular habit ot body and give a health- lui tumulus to the urinary organs. ter. Pa., held the latter part 01 June, ine Baccalaureate sermon by the President of the College. Dr. Thomas G. Appef, is said to have been a clear and forcible presenta tion of the truth of his theme and very ap propriate to the occasion. The address belore the literary societies was aeuverea by Iter. Hepburn Harzia, pastor of the oldest M. E. Church of Franktort, Phila delphia, who held the close attention of a large and appreciative audience, while be discoursed, lor a lull hour, in a Historical, scientific and theological manner on the Question, "Why are we here t" Hia ad dress rave entire satisfaction to his intelli gent hearers. The alumni orator, the lion. C. A. Magee, having lately and sud denlr gone to Europe, the evening set apart lor the reception of his address was devoted to the triennial creeling ot tlie Goethean Literary Society, which proved to be a very enjoyable aliair to all who had the privilege ot participating in the festivity. The commencement exercises were largely attended by alumni and friends of the institution. At a meeting of the alumni association it was. on motion of Kev. C. L. ueilman, resolved to appoint a committee to make arrangements tor the holding of a cenlen nial celebration of Franklin College, in l&ST, and a semi-centennial celebration of Marshal College, at the same time. These two institutions, the former located at Lancaster, and the latter at Mercersburg were in 1S53 united,, and thus iranklm and Marshal College took its rise. The year 1847 may therefore be expected to be one full of interest to the friends ot the College, and. it is to be hoped, of profit also to the institution llselt. It has tor years been the custom ot the ladies of Lancaster city to give, in connec lion with the commencement festivities, what is called an alumni dinner, to which the Board of Trustees, t acuity, Alumni, Students of the College and visiting lriends are Invited. 1 his year the large dinner- room of Uarbaogh Hall was literally pack ed with ladies and gentlemen who partook ol a rich repast and then shook their sides with laughter at the wit and humor ot the post-prandial speeches. Gen a. t . t isber, f hiladelphia, presided on the occa sion. Everybody who was in attendance peaks well of the last commencement. he prospects for a large addition ot new students al the opening ot the next term are very good.

Mrs. Fike was astisiing ber husband to harvest th wheat crop ; they bad started lor the barn with akakd when the horses became on manageable and started to run. Mrs. F. was thrown violently from the wagon, the wheels cf which passed over her lelt leg crushing the Xtvae from the knee to the ankle. Dr. Brubaker, of this place, was sent for, who, with the assistance of Dr. A. P. Brubaker, ot Philadelphia, did what they could to relieve the sufferings ot the unlortuna'e woman. A black racer, measuring between five and six feet in length, was killed by Mr. Frank Countryman, ot Grave! Hill, in front ot the dry good store of John IIol derbaum, in the west end ol town, about six o'clock, Saturday evening. Hi snake ship came out ol the meaJow on the oppo site side ot the street and started in lb; di rection of Mr. II store, perhaps with, the intention of making a few purchases and laying ia a Hock ot (applies for over the SIbtth. when be was spied by 3Ir. C who started in pursuit and afer racing him for a considerable distance, succeeded in dispatching him. This species ot snake is very seldom seen in this region and this is tbe first one that ha been killed in this Ticinity for years. Since the opening of the woodcock sea son, on the 4ih, several of our sportsmen have taken to the woods with their breech- loading fowling pieces and bird dogs of high degree I a Xew York the Legisla ture has shortened the season for these birds one month, taking off July. There is reason in this step. The 4th is too early, as the young woodcock are barely old enough at that time to hunt food for themselves, while tbe old ones, just get ting through hatching are yet poor. The editor 01 tue r orest Jicpubiica says it is scarcely a month since he saw a nest with the old bird still setting on tbe eggs. Such a lact argues that to sbilt the season turth er along would give more and better woodcocks. It seems almost impossible to convince people that there is danger walking on 1 railroad track, and seems equally impoesi ble to instill common sense into the minds ot people during a thunderstorm. Seeking shelter under a tree is tbe last resort that ought to be made, for if lightning strikes near such a place it is almost sure to strike the tree, la this way one person was in stantly killed and three badly if not lataily injured by getting undei a cherry tree from which they had been picking cher ries near Mowry's Mill, Bedlord county. A barn filled with new-made hay and grain is also dangerous, and ought to be avoided it other tbe Her can possibly be ob tained.

Do not put them under tbe control of boys, who are ambitious to make speed tbe most desira ble quality. We are often pained to see boys abusing horses by the use ot a whip, when their owners no doubt think the animals are being well taken care of. Tbe proprietors of the Bedlord Springs have concluded to tax visitors who do not board at the Springs hotel tor the use of the waters. They demand 3 50 a week, 50 cents a day, or 15 OH tor the season, whereat hotel keeper in the town and vicinity complain. It is thought this el fort lo coerce visitors lo board at the Springs hotel will keep many away from the place altogether, and there is talk of resist leg the imposition.

A large pro portion of the American people are to day dying from the enects of Uyspepsia or dis ordered liver. Tbe result of these dis eases upon the masses of intelligent and valuable people is most alarming, making ufe actuaily a burden instead of a pleasant existence of enjovment and usefulness as it ought to be. There is no good reason for this, if you will only throw aside pre judice and skepticism, take the advice of Druggists and your lriends, and try one uuiutr ui uiccd 1 AuguH x lower. iuut speedy relief is certain. Millions of bot tles ot this medicine have been given away to try its virtues, with satisfactory results in every case. You can buy a samp.e bottle lor 10 cents to try.

This may be used without Ihe least apprehension, as it will do no injury. Now, If ever, is the time when cellars should be carefully inspected and divest ed of every particle ot decaying matter. especially that of the vegilable order. Thorough ventilation and a good coat ot whitewash will greatly assist in main taming that part ot the Household in a healthful condition. The common sunflower is claimed to be a ixwcrlul absorbent of noxious and mala rious odors, and its growth is recommend ed as a preventative at malarial diseases. An old physician says : "You never knew of a case of any kind in a house that had sunflowers grow ing about it" The advice is worthy of consideration. Young man, it she smiles on you more sweetly than usual ; if she remarks that 11 o'clock isn't a bit late ; it she confidently invites you to call again ; if she bids you good night with a gentle pressure of her little hand, be not deceived the festival season cometh. when all these things must needs be.
