HARRISBURG
Saturday Afternoon, February ISt 1861.
Rev. Da. HODGESON, the Presiding Elder
this District, will preach in the Locust Street
Methodist Church to-morrow morning, and in
the Vine Street Methodist Church at seven
o'clock In the evening
......-.....
Tat Eittwosio Social; having accepted the
invitation of the Young Men's Christian Asso
ciation to furnish the music for their anniver
sary occasion, on Tuesday evening next, will
meet, for the purpose of preparing therefor, in
the Presbyterian Church, Market Square, on
Monday evening at seven o'clock precisely. The
Conductor especially desires a full and punctual
attendance of active members.
ANNIVIMSARIL—We acknowledge the recep
tion of an invitation to the anniversary celebra
tion of the Washington Hose Company, to
come off in their new and beautiful building on
thu evening of the 22d, the birth day anniver
sary of the departed _patriot whose honored
name they bear. All why participate in this
festive demonstration will have a -good time,"
for the Washy boys are proverbial for the libe
rality and hospitality with which they enter
tain their guests.
BAK* ENGAGED. —Most of our fi re compante=
have already engaged first class Bands for the
treenty-eecond. The Repass Cornet Band of Wil
liamsport will play fur the Citizen company, the
Van Tries Cornet Band of Hollidaysburg for
the Washington company, and the Hama:leis
town Band for the Hope company. The Friend
ship company are making an effort to secure
the services of the Worth Infantry Band of
York. It is evident pat there will be no lack
of good music on the occasion.
-.fp.-
Tau BMUS generally are in a very muddy
and filthy condition. For the credit of the city
we hopa Council will have them thoroughly
scraped and cleaned before next , Friday. Their
attention is especially calla' to the condition
of Market and Third streets, two of our most
prominent thoroughfares. If the,public high
ways cannot be kept in proper order under the
present system, abolish the office of Supervi
sor, and give out the work by contract. There
are plenty of men in_our city who would will
ingly take the job, at a fair price, and keep the
streets in first rate condition at all seasons of
the year.
.......4...m......=
Tea Doc Law.—We again call the attention
of our citizens to the city ordinance recently
enacted by Council, and published in the TELs
oasis a few days ago, relative to dogs running
at large withq,ut metal collars, or leather col
lars with metal plates, on their necks, contain
ing the names of the owners. The same ordi
nance prohibits, under a severe penalty, l the
running at large of canines known to have
been bitten by mad dogs. It is made the duty
of the Chief of,Police to enforce this law, and
he intends to do it. '1 bete is a large number
of curs iu the city, not worth the expense of
collaring, but if permitted to run loose in vio
lation of the ordinance, they will no doubt, be
roped by the Chief and his vigilantassistants.
Roues= Timers, at reduced rates of fare,
will be issued on all the railroads leading to
this city, for the benefit of persons desiring to
attend the Democrape State Convention, and
the , Washington birth-day festivities, next
week. The President elect having postively
accepted an invitation to visit the State Capital
on Friday, we look for immense crowds of the
"sovereign people," in addition to the large
force of military. This may be the only °ppm . ;
badly that the mass of our people will ever
have of seeing "Old Abe," and they ought to
improve it. The Republicans of the old Key
stone, especially, should turn out in their
'strength to welcome the rdan who so'nobly led
them through the late exciting campaign, and
came out of the contest with Freedom's colors
flying, and "brows bound with victorious
wreaths." Aside from the presence of Presi
dent Lincoln, the grand military and civic pa
rade, and the ceremonies incident to the
raising of the." Stars and Stripes" on the Capi•
tol, will be a spectacle will worth witnessing.
OMNI A WIIMIC it is pleasant to contemplate
that the next day will not be one of bustle
and haste, of anxiety to swallow the morning
meal, and forget the home and its people for
labor, Once a week it is exhilarating to have
the hours wear away and be your own master;
to mark the sun gradually reach the meredian,
to note the shadows out of doors, and the
night come on. It is genuine comfort to throw
aide the working gear and put on the bet
ter garments, and go out into the highways
untrammeled with duties or with cares. It
is instructive, too, to see the world in its
best -attire, how much better it looks and
feels, and bow much more considerateand con
cilisting It is. It is a great lesson to mark the
stillness of the -streets, the retirement of the
working man, and the improved decorum of
children. It is a proof of social advancement
that the stores are all closed, the beast in his
stall, and the servant providing only for a one
day's pampered stomach. It is evidence that
all IS not greed when men can sit down with
their friends, and women with their neighbor
gossips, and tell each other , what they have
seen, and speculate on what is to be. It is the
safety of a community, that youth oan once a
week mingle with maidenhood, and whisper
in its ears holy promises and glowing vows.—:
It is well that even the beggar has not so lost
control over hunger, that it cannot command
the deathlike nraiings of the stomach. Or
that crime in-agieat measure suspends its ope
rations. It would be better than all these, did
charity know its office well enough to let each
pursue the peaceful tenor of his belief of right.
Better did envy hide itself, and not let loosaits
bitter words to cloud some sky righteously se
rene. Orice a week is a blessing, or should be
such, were each content with his lot, and not
be aspiring to what he thinks others should not
enjoy. Once a week is ours, of all other times
—the blessed Sabbath!

SHOCKING AND FATAL ACCEDENT.—Yesterday
morning a shocking accident occarred on the
farm of Mr. Jacob Myers, near Lancaster city,
by which a little girl named Mary Buck was
instantly killed. Mr. Myers was engaged in
threshing in his barn with a machine, which
was connected' with the horse-power on the
ontside, by means of a horizontal shaft. The
child was sent from the house to Bir. Myers to
enquire for a key, and before she entered the
barn she stepped over the shaft. In returning,
however, and while in the act of stepping over
the shaft a Second time, her clothing caught
fast, and she was whirled around a number of
times, with great force, her head striking upon
the ground and scattering• her bredna in all
directions. ' ' •
Ma. LINCOLN'S VISIT TO HARRISBURG.—The
Committee of the Legielature to invite' Presi
dent Lincoln to visit Harrisburg, met him at
Pittsburg on Thursday evening, and in: an in
formal conversation executed their pleasing
duty. Mr. Lincoln said he had received hefonr
a written request to the same effect, and bad
determined, if possible, to accept. His travel
ing agent, in looking over Mr. Lincoln's pro
gramme, thought that by staying over a day
longer at New York, Philadelphia, &c., the
trip could easily be effected. It was finally de
termined thit Mr. Lincoln would leave Phila
delphia at 9 o'clock on Friday, the 22nd ;
reach Harrisburg at 1 P. K., the same day.; be
present at the ceremonies attending tile
raising of the new flag on the State Capitol ;
rest in Harrisburg that night, and depart for
Washington, (route not yet fixed,) on Saturday
morning.- Mr. Lincoln hi anxious to reach•
Washington on Saturday night, so as not to be
obliged to travel on the Sabbath. The splendid
Director's Car of the Pennsylvania Railroad
company, which was placed at the disposition
of the Prince of Wales and suite, passed down
the road , last night, to be used, it is under
stood, for the accomodation of the Presidential
party. The Committee will at once proceed
to make-arrangements, for giving the President ,
a fitting reception on his arrival here.

A REMONISTRANOL—"An Emir having noticed
the inoonirenience to which a peasant girl was
exposed when crossing the river Sulfa, called
his laborers and never left the spot until he
saw, at the end of torty-one days, th‘comple- -
thou of a Substantial bridge over the stream."
So writes Ohasseur in his history of , the Drwas
of Lebanon. Oh 1 would that our City Fathers
were gallant Emirs, upper Third street the tur
bulent Sulfa, and ourselves peasant girls, if by
such transformations a path-way by which we
could reach the mid-city dry-shod and mudless,
could.be effected. Do we Yerbeketonians want
to come to church, we have to wide through

ARREST OF A SUSPECTED THIEF.—ATTEMPT TO
ESCAPE.—Last night a colored man named.
Dick Carter was arrested by the Chief of Po
lice and Constable Wickert, on suspicion of
having been concerned in the robbery of kir.
Bellman's shoe store some months 'ago. while
passing up Walnut street Dick attempted to
run away; but after an exciting chase he was
re-captured and locked up for a bearing. The
tools used for entering the store were stolen
from the shop of kir. Whittier, some of which
Carter subsequently.sold to persons in this city:
Carter was also present at a house in Tanner's
Alley when a division of the stolen boots and
shoes were made. Circumstances are very
strongly against him.
STATE LUNATIC HoserrAL.—From the annual
report of the Trustees and Superintendent of
the State Lunatic Hospital, beautifully located
near our city, we gather some items which, no
doubt, will prove interesting to the readers of
this paper :
'tilt the date of the last report there were
two hundred and seventy-four patients in the
Institution. Since that time, one year ago;
there have been one hundred and fourty-four
admitted, and one hundred and twenty-seven
discharged or died, leaving two hundred and
ninety-ene under ears at the close of the year
1860. The entire number of patients under
treatment during the year, has been four hun
dred and eighteen. Of those remaining in the
Hospital, one hundred and fifty-six are support
ed by the , public authorities, and one hundred
and, thirty-five by their friends. Of those dis
charged during the year, thirty-one. were re
stored to health, forty were more or less im
proved in their mental condition, forty-eight
were regarded as stationery, and but`eight died.
From the opening of .the Institution to the end
of 1860, thirteen hundred and thirty six patients
have been under its care; and while two hund
red and ninety-one remain under treatment,
two hundred and thirty-six have been dis
charged restored to health; two hundred and
sixty-three in various states of improvement ;
three hundred and fifty-eight have been taken
out 'without. material improvement, and one
hundred and seventy-eight have died."
The Trustees, in their report, urge upon the
State the duty of making ample provision for
thecustody and treatment of all her insane in
properly organized hospitals:—
"Xvery year adds new proof of the import
ance and usefulness, of the Hospital, and more
futlyileinonstrates.the advantages which it is
diffusitigin every section of the Commonwealth.
To the Executive and the Legislature it must
continue to look for the means of effecting the ,
full amount of good anticipated from its ereo-
tion ; and to their liberality and generous ap
preciation of the urgent Maims of suffering hu
manity, the Board of Trustees would •again
heartily commend the Institution."
The report of the Superintendent, Dr. Jolla
Cuawint, is a highly satisfactory one, abound
ing in information which, if properly diffused,
could not fail of being productive of great
good. Want of room forbids us publishing the
report. in full, and we therefore make the fol
lowing we commend to the cone
,to
sideration of our readers :
"The fact is well established, by the most ex
tensive statistical inquiries, that a large pro
portion of the idiody
. and imbecility in the
community has its origin in the intemperate
habits of one or both parents. It is greatly to
be feared that the larger part of the delicate
constitutions, and the tendency to many of the
most intractable diseases which come. under
the observation of physicians, may be traced
to the intemperate indulgences of different
kinds on, the part of the'progenitors of . She
sufferers. Careful and diligent , attention
.to sound' moral and hygienic measures in
the early training and education of children,
would also have a very decided effect in dimin
ishing the number of eases of insanity
"It is much to be regretted that proper fam
ily discipline does not receive that attention in
ninny families which religion and sound-com
monsense inculcate ; and that filial obedience,
the germ of all social obedience, does not re
ceive that careful cultivation which is so neces
sary to its full developement, in the family and
in the community. The affections need to be
carefully educated, the passions to be restrain
ed and properly directed, and the-evil-effect of
. their improper indulgence shown, and the strict
principles of morality, founded on the teachings
of our holy religion, to be most .assiduously
infused into the mind and enforced by precept
and example. At the same time due attention
must be given to the bodily system, and every
effort made to develope the powers regularly .
and in due proportion, so as to maintain that
equable balance on which health depends!'
"Exceeding diversity characterizes the de
velopment of the, mind in youth ; but still it
may be safely asserted that children are sent to
school too soon, are confined there too closely,
and too much is required of them. In- grow
ing children, as every one must have observed,
the natural promptings are for a degree of
movement and exercise which is incompatible
with close and continued confinement in school;
and whenever frequent .exereise is denied, and
the child is confined continuously, to the same
position, and threatened with punishment for
yielding to what is an instinct •of its mature,
the mind feels the effect and becomes dull and
unable to act in 'iteproPer and accustomed
manner, and all attempts to learn lessons in
that state are futile. A few minutes' active
exercise would dissipate the whole restlessness
of body and.dullness of mind, and enable them
to learn the lesson in half the time. The old
and :homely adage, "all work 'and no play
makes Jack a dull boy," needs to be more prac
ticed in its full spirit than preached ; and if
those who have the direction of such, matters
would only enforce the principles which their
own observations and' sound sense must teach
them, in their daily intercourse with scholars,
we would have more healthy youth and a bet:
ter educated population."
"Another practice more detrimental to the
mind, because acting more directly on its pow
ers, is that of giving the scholars too many
branches of study-at one time, and requiring
them, in consequence, to devote to their ac
quisition much of that time which should be
given to exercise and recreation.. The effect is
that what should be learned carefully, and un
derstood as it is studied, is passed-over superli
dolly, and learned just to be recited'and prob
ably in great part soon forgotten. This gives
rise to a superficial 'manner, which passes into '
a habit, and everything is done in the same
way; and thus meat valuable time is lost, and
valuable opportunities thrown away. This so
called system of education may serve to ex
plain the great demand for a light and trifling
literature, now so much in vogue, which re
quires little or no thought, and appeals strong
ly to the passions and 'feelings, presenting a
• false view of life, and •'gradually unfitting ,the
• mind for life's higher and nobler duties, and
so enervating all its powers as to lay the fouldation for mental disorder,' whenever trials and
disappointments come, and the bodily health
fails. The remedy for this lies, of course, in 11
more careful and thorough training, and more
strict attention to laying deep and solid foun
dations, and inculcating sound and correct
principles, so that, though less general pro
gress Is made, what is learned is well learned.
and the application readily made whenever the
knowledge may be required. Another error is
the education of the intellectual powers, to the
almost total neglect of the moral. Man is a
moral and accountable being, and is endowed
with moral faculties, which are as much a part
of his mental constitution as his memory or
his imagination, and in every system of edu
cation shovld receive as much, if not more at
tention, as any other. A well balanced mind
can only exist where the faculties all receive
a just and equal development."
