The moaning of ihia lorm, suggested by
qtir School Law is liable to some misappre
hension, Tl\ey are schools having different
departments and adapted lo scholar* Of dif-
Parent ages and attainments. They require
houses of two or more rooms with a teacher
in cadi room adapted to t ho grade o( schol
ars in his or department, it w 'd be evident
to every educator of children that such a
school is a very important consideration
wherever it is practicable lo establish it.
Such schools con not exist in the more
rural sections of the county. The popula
tion is not dense enough to fill two fronts
with scholars, averaging from thirty lo fifty
each. The wants of such localities can best
be supplied with a single school, centrally loj
cated, with a good school house and a good
teacher in it. Bur double, treble or graded
schools are practicable in all our villages;'
and in the populous center of nearly every
township of the county. They are possible,
perhafls practicable in every place where,
within a radius of one and a half or two
miles, that is a diameter of three miles, a
population of one hundred children can be
assembled. According lo this opinion every
borough may have a graded school; nearly
every township may have one, and a few
townships may hive two such schools. But
when we say that every village and nearly
every township of this cobnty may have
such schools, we are using a word much
milder than the necessities of most localities
of this kind demand. It is safe, it is the
spirit of our school system, to say they
should have such schools. It is utterly im
possible for the best teacher in the county or'
State to do justice lo the mass of scholars of
all ages, attainments and sexes, that are
turned in to him in many of these undivided,
unclassified, metropolitan schools. Children
are spoilt aud disgusted with the whole busi
ness of going to school in such a heterogene
ous jam as some of our village schools pre
sent. How then shall we clear the way for
such schools as arc needed in these central,
populous localities. We answer most em
phatically enlarge your district corporations,
where you have a borough corporation, so as
to embrace all the territory and taxables
within one mile and a half of the center*
This can be done by either abolishing or en
larging your borough corporations. For all
practical purposes of such boroughs, where a
corporation is needed, we think they are far
too small at any rate. Then clear away
every school house within about three miles
of such a nucleus. Then build a house large
enough to accommodate all the scholars
’within two miles of it. Prepare yourselves
to take all that comes, generally free. Pro
vide good teachers, if possible, permanent
ones. And on the score of economy, ad
vancement, good order, usefulness every
way, such schools should not be surpassed
in .New York, Philadelphia, or even Boston.
It is one of the excellencies of our School
Law that it contemplates just such schools
whereever they are practicable. Schools,
where there shall bo infant, youth, and high
department—a school where the child can
learn its A., 8., C’s amid all the attraction
and freedom of childhood—a school where
the higher branches can be taught, and
teachers educated and qualified ; in short a
model school in the neighborhood of, and ac
cessable to all who would seek a good Eng
lish education without the dangers and ex
pense of going abroad.
In contravention of this humane and phi
lanthropic provisiqn of our law, potty schools
are established ans puffed into a poor dying
Jilp in the very precincts of our villages anjd
town capitols. Often three or five such
school houses are within two miles of. a
village. The school that should be the graded
school is smothered out, or grades downwards.
The house is not competent lo hold the schol
ars even of the corporation proper, much
less the children that should be educated
there. Parents pay their school lax lo one
district and send their children lo another,
sometimes of necessity, and sometimes pay
ing a round school bill in the bargain. We
can think of but one school, that of Law
renceville, that has sufficient capacity of
room lo accommodate all the scholars within
a radius of two miles, and at the same time
an internal organization that adapts it for nil
classes. Perhaps there are others. We
shall know soon, and wo know we shall be
happy lo give public commendation of the
fact. We know enough already lo convince
us that thp want of these centra] graded
schools of the large liberal sort is a great
want in the places of this county where they
are practicable. We are confident if the
citizens of all our villages and central loca
tions would consider the very great benefit of
such schools m respect both lo economy and
utility, they would begin to push further off
the little school houses, and introduce an ed
ucational machine that should be worthy of
them. J. F. Calkins, Co. Sup’i.

Two Hide girls, one rejoicing in blue rib
bon*, tho orher in pink, were bewailing (heir
domestic misfortunes in mock maternal lan-
guage.
“ Where is your dolly 7’’ asked pink rib
bons of her little neighbor.
“ Dear me! didn't 1 tell you 7” onswered
blue; “ why she has got tho measles dread
ful. Her face is all spotted over."
“ Well, I don’t think she’s as sick ns my
dolly,” said pink ; “ only think, I’ve had a
constitution of thirty doctors for her, and
they all didn’t do nnygood. I’ve had to buy
a now gown, she’s so miserable,” (not the
first misery n new gown has brightened up,)
“ she’s got the consumption.” ,
“ Ob ! that’s dreadful bad ; does she cough
much !”• asked the other, with an air of great
“ All the time—and keeps me awoke so
much of nights.”
“Bui why don’t you take her out? the air
wilbbe good for her Ipngs.”
‘• O! dear," exclaimed pink ribbons, with
admirably assumed intensity of feeling) “ my

breathes through her nose.’’

what sneepss it accomplishes the purpose designed.
It is easy to'mahe a physical pilt, but hot easy to

every other. This has been attempted here, and
with what success we would respectfully Submit' to
the public decision.' It. has been unfortunate for
tho patient hitherto that almost every' ptirgative
medicine is acrimonious and irritating to the bow
els. .Thisis not. Many of them produce so much
griping pain and revulsion in the system as to mors
than counterbalance the good to be derived horn
them. These pill* produceno irritation or pain,
unless it arise from a previously existing obstruc

vegetable, no harm can arise from their use in any
quantity ; hut it is betterthat any medicine should
bo taken judiciously. Minute directions for their
use in the several diseases to which they are ap
, plicabla are given on the box. Among the com
plaints which have been speedily cured by them, we
may mention liver Complaint, in its various forma
of Jaundice, Indigestion, Languor and Loss of Ap
petite, Listlcssness, Irritability, Bilious Headache,
Bilious Fever, Fever and Ague, Pain in tho Side
and Loins; for, in truth, all these are but the con
sequence of diseased action in tho liver. As an
aperient they afford prompt and sure relief in Cos
tfvencss, Piles, Colic, Dysentery, Humors, Scrof
ula and Scurvy, Colds with soreness of tho body.
Ulcers and impurity of tho blood; jn short, any
and every case where a purgative is required. . ' ,
'They have also produced some singularly suc
cessful cures in Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsy, Gravel,
Erysipelas, Palpitation of the Heart, Pams in the'
Back, Stomach, and Side. They should be freely
taken in the spring of tho year, to purify the blood
and prepare the system for tho change of seasons.
An occasional doso stimulates the stomach and
bowels into healthy action, and restores tho appe
tite and vigor. They purify the blood, and, by their
stimulant action on the circulatory system, reno
vate the strength of the body, and restore the
wasted or diseased energies of the whole organism*
Hence an occasional dose is advantageous, cron
though no serious derangement exists; but un
necessary dosing should never be carried too far,
as every purgative medicine reduces the strength,
when taken to excess. The thousand cases in which
a physic is required cannot be enumerated here, but
they suggest themselves to ■ the reason of every
body; and it is confidently this pill will
answer a better purpose than any thing which has
hitherto been available to mankind. When their
virtues ore once known, the public will no longer
doubt what remedy to employ when in need of a
cathartic medicine. Being sugar-wrapped they aro
pleasant to take, and being purely icgctable, no
norm can arise from their use m any quantity.
For minute directions see wrapper on the Box.

Thtb remedy has von fop itself such notoriety
from its cures of every variety of pulmonary disease,
that it is entirely unnecessary to recount the evi
dences of its virtues in any community where it
has been employed. So wide is the Held of its use •
fulness, and so numerous the eases of Its cures,
that almost every section of ‘the country abounds
in persons publicly known, who have been restored
from alarming and even desperate diseases of the
lungs by its use. When once tried its superiority
over every other medicine of its kind is too appa
rent to escape observation, and where its virtues are
known, the public no longer hesitate what antidote
to employ for the distressing and dangerous affec
tions of tho pulmonary organs which are incident
to our climate. And not only in' formidable at
tacks lungs, but for the milder varieties
of Colds,) Coughs, Hoarseness, &c. ; and for
Children - it is the pleasantest and safest medicine
that can bo.obtained.
As it has long been in constant use throughout
this section, we need not do more than assure tho
people its quality' is kept up to the best that it ever
has been, and that the genuine article is sold by—
