Dedicatory Exerettes.
Friday, Oct. 4th, Was a day fraught with
so much interest to the friends of educa
tion, in and around Waynesboro', that the
exercises of that day deserve more than a
passing notice. After several unavoida-:
ble, but no less vexatious delays, the new
School Building has finally been dedica
ted to the great cause of liberal and uni
versal education. Believing that a short
sketch of the day's doings will he read with
interest by the . frieads of the cause who
had not the pleasure of being present, the
same is appended.
In the morning - the clouds threatened
rain, but toward noon the skies, as well as
many faces ; (especially those of the school
Directors) became brighter, and about
this time two well-knotn educators arriv
ed, These were Prof. Shoemaker, Princi
pal of Chambersburg Academy, and Prof.
'Wickersham, State Superintendent, both
of whom came by invitation of Dr. Her
ing, acting in behalf of the School Board.
The Doctor soon had his guests, together
with Prof. Bentz and the members of .the
Board, happily seated around his hospi
table dinner table, when and' where the
wants of the inner man were duly attend
ed to.
After dinner a procession was formed
under the supervision of Marshals W. S.
Amberson, Esq, and Dr. Strickler, and
which consisted, of course, of bodies suita
bly clas s ified for such an occasion—the
school children forming a prominent ele
ment—and were no less pleasant and at
tractive, No doubt many a happy, hope
ful, bright faced little boy and girl receiv
ed during the day, impressions for good
-that - will - be as lasting Its memory itself.
After passing through several streets,
the School House, with the star-spangled
banner "floating in the breeze," came it
view, On entering house,-the—g--
pulse of many was, of course, to inspect
the interior, (so far as the restraint„they
were under would admit) and the general
opinion seemed to be that, "to see, was to
admire." Besides the fine arrangement
and good workmanship everywhere visi
ble,_ the walls were lined xitli beautiful;
maps and instructive mottoes, and almost
everything bore an appearance of taste
and durability, the ornamental and the
useful happily combined. But lest we
should be sus' ected of slightly overdraw
ing the picture, it need only he added in
this connection, that Supt. Wickersham
pronounced it in his address, "one of the fi
nest school buildinksof its size in the
State ;" - and he - i"s eminently qua4ed to
make Or withhold such assertions.
The second floor of the Building (the
High and the Grammar school rooms—
the sliding petition between the two hav
ing been raised) was packed with an ap
preciative audience, some of the young
folks having to stand,—but even they
seemed to be all attention, May it not
be hoped that they will manifest the same
spirit during the coming sessions of school?
After music (vocal, Niith organ accom
paniment) and prayer by Rev. Mr. Hibsh
man, Doctor Hering, Pres. of the School
Board, delivered a short address, setting
forth, in a brief and lucid manner, the
Wants of the community, and the exer
tions of the Board to meet the same by e
recting "a house worthy of Waynesboro',"
and, to complete his sentence, "it now
only remains for the people of Waynes
boro' to show themselves worthy of the
house." One of the Doctor's best hits was,
that the most commendable feature of the
school heretofore was the shortness of the
term. His reasons were, of course, based
upon physiology. But as the Doctor's
statements will very likely be placed ver
batim, before the reader, further remarks
on this point re deemed unnecessary.
After music iy the Waynesboro' Band,
Prof. Shoemake • took the stand, and with
the exception, pei laps, of one or two state
ments, spoke to th edification of all pres
ent. His eloquent s (Th will, no doubt,
assist many parents to look upon the ed
ucation of their children—their "precious
household jewels"—in a new and better
light. He argued that as the immortal
mind is of infinitely more value than
earth's most costly gems,its training should
not be intrusted to careless or incompe
tent hands,—the best teachers should be
employed : the true spirit of the age should
he, "Not how cheap. but how Nell." Es
pecially should this be the casein the Pri
miry schools, (a parodox to the unthink
ing) where a mistake will do vastly niore
mischief than it would in the higher grades.
He spoke of regular and continuous at
tendance at school its a prerequisite to
real progress and solid attainments on the
part of the student ; and also the incen
tives to study and the culture of taste fur
- nished by such a school house and such
pleasant surroundings as the boys and
girls of Waynesboro' now have mid will
continue to have as the years roll on. "To
leave such a school," said he, "will bo the
first great sorrow of life."
Next music by the band ; after which,
Hon. J. P. Wickersham, State Superinten•
dent was introduced. lie began by rela
ting an interview which he had about
eighteen mouths ago with a delegation of
school Directors who called at the State
Department at Harrisburg, to find out
"what he knew about school houses," and
to be directed to Some model house which
they might inspect. Ile directed them
to a certain place; "and now," said he,
"we may see the fruits of that visit by
looking at the beautiml house in which we
are sitting." Ilk remaks were, on the
whole, exceedingly complimentary to the
place and people in general, and to the
School Board in partieular, He gave the
Board credit, not only for erecting a first
plass House, but also for locating it on
one of the beg school sites to be found
anywhere. The grounds would, he im
agined, become by and by a pleasant place
or resort —a sort of "Park" for the town;
while the beautiful scenery that may • be
observed from all the windows would do
nmeh to render the place both attractive
aud refining,
The Superintendent gave some reasons
for meeting a new school house here, the
first of which was that the old school
house was unfit for school purposes. He
Lad, he said, a knowledge of this fact
years age (even before the Committee of
of Direwtors' called upon him). Thus ;
tolerating miserable school-houses is one
'lsasy ;or a town to gain notoriety.
A union graded , school for all children
of both sexes is much preferable to hav
ing several school buildings in different
parts of the town. The grading can be
more thorough, arid above all is, on may
be, the crowning feature—a High School
Department. To add this feature, :said
the Superintendent, is only to carry out
the original purpose and intention . of the
school Law. The great American idea is
to give all a fair chance—the.aalented
poor (and such there are) as 'welt as the
talented rich, This idea is carried .out,
to a mat extent, by erecting.such schools
as this- -free Academies, where young
men may be prepared for business or col
lege and young women for teaching, or
for other avocations.
Prof. Wickersham stated that another
reason for building such a House is, that
it is a good pecuniary investment. As
he feared this proposition would be doubt
e4 by some, he took special pains to prove
it true, and to this end adduced facts and
arguments as convincing as numerous
To hear was to believe ; and as no doubt
those most interested did hear, it is un
necessary to rehearse the s ements at
this time. Besides, this is not the high
est standpoint from which to view such
an enterprise as the establishment of au
institution where indestructible jewels are
to be brought to the light and polished
by its aid:
At the conclusion of fir. WickershamA
stiring speech, the President of the School
Board made a. few well-chosen dosing re
marks. The audience then united in
singing "Coronation," after which they
were dismissed with the priviledge of lin
gering long enough to inspect, in all its
parts, the Building whose impressive ded
icatory services were new completed,
- Z.
m.Tbe number of emigrants of all
-classes leaving Germany, is said to be so
great as to excite general attention and
comment. The Government is becoming
alarmed, and threatens to declare all
who leave th — e country, to remain, to be
out-laws, and to deal with them as such,
if captured. The causes that induce such
wholesale emigration, just after their na
tional victories and on consummation of
the dream of_y-cars,the_union_of-Gerrna--
ny under one flag,—are thelegitimate re
sults of the course pursued by Bismarck
to attain this same boasted union, The
immense levies necessary to maintain the
enormous
. standing armies upon which
Germany's hopes are based, place before
all able bodied men the certainty milita
ry service, and that in an army the dis
cipline of which is notoriously among the
most rigorous in the world. To support
these great armies of non-producing sol
diers, vast sums of money are required
and to raise these, taxation must be cor
respondingly heavy. To escape the rig
ors cif this enforced military servitude,
and this accumulated burden of taxation,
many of the German people are leaving
their country to seek new homes in foreign
lands. Large numbers of them, of course,
will come to this country,
Itts3 - A Washington dispatch says it is
the opinion in official circles that the fif
teen and a-half millions awarded us by
the Geneva Tribunal will not be paid for
a year, There is no law Pt present pro
viding for its disbursement, and when it
is deposited in the Treasury it will re
main there until Congress passes an act
regulating the payment of such claims as
may be presented on account of losses
sustained by the depredations of the An
glo-Confederate cruisers, Alabama, Shen
andoah and Florida.
wir&-The scarcity of coin in 'New York
has caused such serious embarrassment to
the mercantile community generally, and
of that centre particularly, that the Sec
retary of the Treasury on Monday depar
ted from the usual monthly programme
and sold $5,000,000 gold and purchased
$5,000,000 of Five-twenty bonds. Gold
declined one per cent, and made money
easier, but rates are still somewhat unset
tled. It is said on good authority that
the Secretary will probably sell an addi
tional $5,000,000 gold in a short time:

ABUNDANTLY BLEsT,—Our clever friend
Mr. Frederick Hoffman was made glad
on the morning- of-the-18th ult., his-bet
ter-half having presented him with a pair
of- - fine — healthy tmin — boys. He named --
them Romulus and Remus, after the not
ed twin children who became the found
ers of the city_of_Rome.
THE ELECTIOIi.—The election in this
place on Tuesday under the new order of
things—the public bars closed—was an
unusually quiet one, no strife and very
little contention. Six hundred and sixty
four votes were polled, which is consider
ably short of a full vote, the registered
vote of the township being upwards of
seven-hundred. The_Republican maj
ty for Governor is reported at 72. The
result in our next issue,
In this county the majority for the Re
publicans, if reported majorities can be
relied upon, will be several hundred.
THE RESULT. - A great political battle
was fought in this State on Tuesday, and
the Republicans are again the victors.—
Our latest telegraphic dispatches concede
the State to Hartranft by 15,000 to 20,-
000 majority.
Ohio, Indiana and Nebraska are also
conceded to have been carried by the Re
publicans, the former State by about 15,
000.
DEDICA.TION. — The new M. E. Church
at Pikesville was Dedicated on Sunday
morning last. The sermon on the occa
sion was delivered by Rev. Dr. Mitchell.
The sermon in the evening was preached
by Rev, Mr. Donahue of this place. The
attendance at the morning services was
very large, the collection at both amount
ing to about $370. There is yet, we un
derstand, a small indebtedness upon the
building, perhaps a couple of hundred
dollars. The bell with which the church
has been provided weighs with its fixtures
350 pounds, which is amply large for the
village. A protracted meeting is now in
progress there which is likely to be con
tinued for several weeks.
SCHOOL DEDICATTON.—The Dedica
tion of the new School Building in this
place came off on Friday afternoon last
in accordance with the published program
me, an interesting account of which from
a correspondent will be found in detail
in another column. The addresses of
Profs. Shumaker and 'Wickersham, (the
latter State Superintendent of Common
Schools) were most excellent. The ad•
-
dress of Prof. W. partook largely of
the practical, something for which h e
is noted, eliciting on several occasions
the applause of the crowded audience.
According to a statement read by the
President of the School Board, the cost
of the building, ground included, will be
about $20,000.
The schools were organized on Monday
last, and are now in successful operation
under the supervision of the Principal,
Prof. P. H, Bentz•
A new era has thus been inaugurated
in our town. For the last twenty-five years
the want of a suitable building for School
purposes was felt and at times discussed.
Competent teachers were from time to time
employed, but owing to the character of
our accommodations were soon compell•
ed to seek other localities more favored
in this respect. We rejoice that this
want has at last been supplied. We now
have a building which will compare fa
vorably with similar ones anywhere in
our Commonwealth, and with a first
class Principal and a competent corps of
teachers, our citizens may' hopefully an
ticipate grand results for this long-neg-.
lected community in an educational point
of view.

be received this (Thursday) evening at

ArsouT LOCAI, IsiEws.—A great many
people think a newspaper should have
about a page of local news, whether any
thing happens or not. Deluded mortals!
Local editors cannot make people break
their necks,. commit suicide, ruri away
with their neighbors' wives, or do any of
the other exciting things that go to make
up the material out of which the local
reporter delights to weave-paragraphs.—
Furnishing domestic news, when there is
none, is very much like extracting blood
from a turnip. It is - no more `than fair,
that those people who grumble at tkelac •
of loCal news in their paper, should
stop and think whether' they could not
give the editor an item or two worth print
ing,--and if so; let them hold their peace,
or growl at their own remissness. •
