there is no publication to compare with the

requisite is the enclosing of a stamp with
address, to C. K. Lord, O. P. A. of the B. &

would lie hazarding little if anything to ex
press the belief it would not be parted with
for a good many times the value of the
stamp. The red book covers all the States
in the Union, gives in terse but comprehen
sible form full details of tbe lost Presiden
tial, State. Congressional and Legislative
elections, answering almost every question
one could ask. More than this, there is a
statement with each Slate showing in brief
the result of every presidential election
since admission into the t nion. together
with doctoral vote and other data, all ar
tanged in complete form, and with an eye
to clean and artistic effect truly commenda
ble. The Pittsburgh Lender publishes the fol
lowing from its Somerset correspondent :
" Break-Neck-Rocks is a romantic place in
the mountains, some two and a half miles
from Somerset, where picnic parties often
resort for a day's pleasure. At tbe foot of
these rocks sixty-three years ago was found
the body of a man named Powers, trans
it xed by a snag. That he fell over the prec
ipice and impaled himself was not doubted
and the incident gradually faded from mem
ory. It now transpires that his death was
really a murder under tbe code duello. A
written confession, signed by a mi: named
Gregg, who died recently in South Carolina,
tells the whole story. The two bad been
friends. While visiting in Somerset they
quarreled over some trifling matter. Pow
ers challenged Gregjr, who being an expert
swordsman, chose rapiers. The duel w'as
fought at tbe point indicated, and Powers
fell mortally wounded, being run through
the body by Gregg. In order to avoid sus
picion, the seconds arranged tbe body in
such a manner as to give the impreseion
that the death was accidental, and nothing
to the contrary was suspected until the
present.
When the tide is at the full, it turns. Our !
educational methods have been growing in
system and severity, if not in perfection, for
many years, and the demands upon the pu
pil have constantly increased, until the ne
cessities for grading have become impera
tive, and the peculiarities of the individual
are almost entirely ignored. It would seeni
impossible to carry this further, and any
change now must be in some other direc
tion. At this crisis, one of the brightest
and most fearless of American writers comes
forward with a strong argument against the
whole system, a protest against tbe grading
and cramming that take so much of tbe vi
tality out of the education we are giving to
e n,nR
generation. Edward Everett

ETrsiA8Tic .Meeting at Mt. Morjaii
(WO People Present .Epitob Herald.
One of the grandest demonstrations and
most enthusiastic meetings it has ever been
our lot to witness, took place at Mt. Moriah.
in Quemahoniagtownship, on Friday even
ing, the 17th inst. The Stoyestown and
Jenner X Roads Blaine and Logan Clubs
were present, in full regalia. Three drum
corps and a brass baud furnished music for
the occasion. The scene presenUd as tbe
two clubs met each other coming in from
different directions, swinging their lights
as they inarched in true military style,
beggars description. The meeting was or
eanized in the "wigwam" by calling Mr,
Wendell Winters to the chair. Fred W.
Biesecker, Esq., opened the meeting with a
speech that was full of the most genuine ar
ticle of "campaign thunder," and which
called forth frequent expressions of ap
plause. In closing his speech he remarked
that be did not wish to occupy much time,
that John H. Jordan, Esq., of Bedford
gouuty, was present and that as this was
probably the last evening Mr. Jordan would
spend in the county during this campaign,
we wanted to get as much from him before
he leflas possible. Before retiring from tbe
rostrumXlie introduced Mr. Jordan, who
stepred fa:
rth amiu the loudest cheers, and
for nearl
two hours held an audience of
000 peopld almost as by magic, with as able
a discussion of the parties and principles
claiming the attention of the American
people As it has ever been our lot to listen
l . ... , r 1
to. Those who laneu to near -ir. joruan
during his visit to our coanty, have sustain
ed a loss that can not easily be repaired.
At the close of Mr. Jordan's remarks Prof.
X. B. Critchfield was called for, but having
spoken at Ihis place once before during the
campaign, and being at home where, he
said, the people could hear him almost
every day, he would not enter into what
might be called a speech, but nevertheles
be, in a few well chosen words, added con
siderable spice to the solid food served by
the other speakers. The effects of tins
meeting will be felt for many miles from
this place Let the echo of the enthusiasm
that burst forth on Friday evening from the
sides of this ancient mountain, be caught up
bv our fellow-Kepublicans all over the
county, and let us, as a solid phalanx,
march forth under those grand, old-time
leaders, Blaine, Logan and Campbell, to the
most signal victory ever achieved by the
Republicans of this county.
