.Express—A Phantom Train, &c. The
Calumbia Courant is responsible for the
following
The "debbil out on a big rampage"
along the line of the Pennsylvania Rail
road. He is seen at various places along
the road, and in different 'shapes. • One
night last week, after the Philadelphia
expres. left Tyrone station,, his satantia
majesty got on the engine with Soll..HOff
master. • He looked around for a moment
then taking the poker from %the fireman
opened the fire door and stirred the fire,
at the same time stickh g his feetin.. He
then sat down stretching out his immense
legs and bringing his tail around laid it
between his cloven- hoofs, • SomOtimes
wings could be seen about his shoulders;
be was very particular about the, fire;
some dines he- would put his head in the
lire-box and look around. - then throw iu
his tail, stiriug the fire attia rapid rate.—
By this time he had got warmed up, and.
so had the engineer and fireman; who
were nearly scared to death. The engine
was making thirty-five miles an hour when
the devil picked up the oil. an,, were, out
and oiled the locomotive in alt its parts.
He then returned, and requested Mr. .Hoff
master to slack up and let him off at
bridge No, 5; but Mr. H. told him he
might get off the same way be got on.—
The engine was then running at a fearful
rate of speed, and Mr. Devil stepped to
°vesicle and disappeared.
We learn since that a phantom train
was seen. in, the vicinity of`. itie Gap.—
'Some nights ago, David Wayne, engin
eer of 477 bad stopped for some purpose
when a train was heard approaching at a
rapid rate. Knowing there was no train
due at that hour, schedules were examin
ed carefully; but the stranger could not
be out. At length it came thunder
ing around the curve with an immense
head-light and other equipments. The
conductor, A. Bell,engineer, fireman, and
brakeman all saw -and heard the train
coming. The flagman, John K. Newell
immediately went back with a light and
placed-signal-eaps-upon—the—railsThe
phantom train came, making the usual
noise a:A lighting the• whole track with
its huge lurid glare, when in a twinkling
the whole thing disappeared. Some say
it was old Amos Clemson's train—the no
torious leader of the Gap gang, who died
several years age—and that he was aboard
swiming a red light furiously,
John Filbert, engineer of the Lancas
ter train, informs us that when approach
ing Pequea bridge, some nights ago, he
sitly the devil on the cowcatcher of his en
gine. He was running at the rate of thir
ty miles an hour, he quickly shut off the
steam and slackened up, but could not
see anything more of the strange object.
These stories are creating a great deal
of comment among railroad men. We
give them as told to us, and leave the resid
ers to draw their own conclusion.
NEN.According to published accounts
the number of people employed in the
primary production of iron in the United
States is set down rat. 140,000; of whom
58,000 aro employed in rolling mills, 45,-
000 in preparing ore and fuel; 25,000 in
preparing fuel for rolling mills; in blast
furnaces, 12,500, and at forges a►rd bloom
cries, 2,500. In addition to this' it is com
puted that 800,000 persons are employed
in manufacturing articles of iron, which
gives a total of 940,000 people connected
in one way or another with the iron inter
ests.
Free trade proposes to drive all these
people out of employment, or to make
them find employment at something else.
Is it wise.
OS-The breaking up of the ice on the
Ohio and Mississippi river has been attend
ed with fearful loss. At Cincinnati up
wards of sixty barges freighted with coal
and six first-class steamboats have been
wrecked, in two insanees the steamboats
having been reduced to kindling wood by
the great presure of the the gorged ice.
Oh Thursday the ice was piled up Ewen
feet high in a solid mass, and in other
places huge cakes, after floating down
the channel, would suddenly be hurled a
gainst steamboats and barges. Thus were
gorges created, and in a short time there
after a crash would take place, the boats
crushed to 'atoms or forced high and dry
upon the shore. It is estimated that the
loss to boats, barges and cargoes thus far
is not less than half a million of dollars.

Itkit.no-a;) FEEuxu.:—So far ',as we,
have bees . ) enabled to learn. there is at
present 4 better railroad feeling in• our
town and neighborhood thanhas existed
for years. Should the Baltimoreans fa
vor the move to connect our section with
the Western Maryland Railroad, a ten
strike, we think, may he safely predicted
this time. The actual losses and incon
veniences continually sustained "for this
great want—the want of railroad facili
ties—is more surely realized among all
clasSes now than ever before. The friends
of the Harrisburg & Potomac Railroad
are ready and willing to join hands to
secure this connection, with the convic
tion that the one will contribute to secure
the other, This is the right feeling and
we are °glad that it prevails so generally.
The interests of our agriculturists, mer
chants, mechanics and manufacturers es
pecially, admit of no delay in this con
templated railroad movement ; and a fa.
vorablc report frOm the Committee which
is expected to visit our town to-day or to'
morrow may be anticipated. Franklin
being one of the foremost agricultural
counties in the State, with about one hun
dred and twenty-file merchant mills, and
our township the "garden spot" of the
county, such a road would beyond all
shadow of doubt, prove an important feed
er to the Western Maryland Railroad
and the city of Baltimore. We are
therefore confident that our expectations
in this view of the matter will be realized
and that the shovel and pick will be
brought into requisition at au early day.
Our railroad men most particularly in
terested have cause under the circum
stancea to be of good cheer,
P. S. Since the above was put in
type we have been informed that the gen
tlemen composing the Committee referred
to above will visit our town to-day.
DECEASED.—Maj. Geo. Weaver, former
ly of Mercersburg, died near Patterson,
Ohio, on the 22d of January last, aged
upwards of 70 years. A couple of Ken
ton (Ohio) papers handed us by a relative
of the dec'd, contain tributes to his memo
ry highly complimentary. It appears he
was among the first Ohio soldiers under
General Taylor to distinguish himself ou
tho - field-of-battle-in—MexicoTtiml—assis -
ing at the storming of Vera Craz under
General Scott accompanied the grand ar
my in its triumphal march to the city ill
Nexico.
At the breaking out of the late Rebel
lion he was the first man to leave his coun
ty in command of a company of volun
teers,and was afterwards promoted to Ma
jor of the 4th Ohio Regiment : The Re
pubiican says ;
He was the first officer in the 4th Ohio
to-teach the soldiers discipline. He was
also the first officer in that Regiment to
demonstrate the necessk-of his teachings.
The soldierly gallantry and ski . 1
display
ed by him while in command of the ad
vance and rear guard and section of artil
lery at Romney on the 24th of Septem
ber, 1861, were flattering evidences of his
efficiency as a soldier. The following ox
tract from a letter written by . one of his
comrades, two days after the engagement
will show the high appreciation entertain
ed for Major Weaver by the members of
the 4th Ohio. He said : "His great calm
ness and valiant courage, coupled with
his military skill, commanded the admi
ration of all, and every soldier of the 4th
Ohio felt grateful that they had contribu
ted by their votes to his election as Ma
jor of the Regiment on the day before leav
ing camp."
He Continued to serve with that Regi
ment until 1863, when impaired health
and advancing years compelled him to
tender his resignation.
In Richland county he held many civil
officers of trust and profit and was univer
sally esteemed for business integrity. He
lost one eye in the Mexican WAD, and a
bout three years ago was so unfottunate
as to lose the sight of the remaining eye.
This was a great calamity to *a man of
such a restless nature. He often express
ed regrets that ho had not been killed on
the field of battle.

WAR EGG.-A story is being passed a
round among the newspapers to the ef

produced an egg bearing upon its surface
in raised letters the inscription : "War
1872 England and America." A Way
nesboro' pullet some years since produc
ed.a similar egg Fith the initials U. S.
G., and other characters not now remem
bered, the letters being raised and per
fectly formed, but other pullets discov

in. Imitation' *of the first curiosity soon
made their appearance. Might pot oth

THAT FRIGHT AoAnc.—The mysterious
visitant in animal form of the Greencastle
Pine Hills, which was a few weeks since
announced to have made its appearance
in the neigborhood of Shady Grove was.
recently encountered by Mr. Samuel Barr
of the Marsh. Mr. B. says it leaped the
fence in front of him and commenced play
fully rolling itself on the ground. It is
&scribed as about the size of a New Found

,A FATAL DasEAsE.,—A disease pro
nounced diarrhoea, but by some believed
to be cholera, has been prevailing at our
State Capitol for sometime with more' than
ordinary fatality. It is said scores have
died of it and that thousands are pros
trated with the infection. A gentleman
direct from Harrisburg informs us that
the popular belief there is that the cause
lies in the impurity of the water. At
last accounts the mortality was on the
increase.

Educatioluil.
The good cause of education is still on
the advance in Quincy township. The
schools are all in a praiseworthy condi
tion all over the entire township. The
••
la: .
tend with this winter
It may be "poetically" said of them that
they live in quite a congenial climate
and breathe a pure and healthy atmos
phere as far as pecuniary matters at least
are concerned. The people of Quincy
township have a very efficient and active
corps of instructors of whom they have
great, reason to be proud. If the teachers
still continue to do their whole duty the
great cause of popular education will move
onward in the great arena of life. We
are living in a very progressive age and
our Common school System is the crown
ing glory of this important age of progress.
It is expected of those who have chosen
teaching as their profession to inscribe up
on the Common School System by their
sound scholarship and proficiency in the
theory of teaching that strange device "ex
celsior." A new era has, dawuad upon
the world of science and all those who in
tend to teach the young idea how to shoot
must keep pace with the advancement
made in the theory and science of teach
ing or else give way to more successful
teachers. We have a very energetic Board
of Directors who show by the interestthey
manifest in the cause that they have the
good of the schools at heart. they
long as
the welfare of the rising generation is in
trusted to such a generous Board of Di
rectors education will not lag behind.—
Last fall the-Directors showed by their
generosity that they determined to com
pensate good teachers better for their la
bor. This speaks well for our Directors
and.is concedeu to be a good start from a
right 'lt has had the desired
effect: anticipated by the Directors and
has drawn some experienced and piaacti
cal teachers who hold• permanent certifi
cates from different localities. If Direc
tors would always compensate teachers
well and. then require of them better pro
fessional 'qualifications our schools would
soon undergo a thorough change. If all
Directors would pursue such a judicious
course there would soon be more good
teachers .because those teachers who hold
provisional certificates would be prompted
to study' niore and qualify themselves bet
ter for their profession. The teacher's pro
fession stands second to no other profes
sion because the future happiness and
prosperity of any people depend upon the
instruction• given in common schools.—
There is no better method to diffuse uni
versal education than by the free school
system. The illiterate must be educated
and the youthful mind must be trained
for a proper discharge of life's dutigs.—
Common school education is intended to
prepare young persons for their duty in
after life. Educated talent is always pre
ferable in any sphere of life because it
eminently fits persons for any calling.—
Every teacher ought theretbre to qualify
himself professionally for the duties of the
school room. The time has come when
the old mechanical routine of imparting
instruction must be dispensed with and a
more systematical and philosophical meth
od substituted in its stead or else the grand
design of this §ystem will be entirely frus
trated. This great change must be wrought
out by the teachers whose duty it is to
perfect the system of education.
