Well said Our comical friend Winchester,
of the Wyoming Co. Democrat, ame-nyst many
other good iyii,'e. lut week, made the following
pun !' Tlia weather continue cold and every
tliin is "backward in coining forward." '
The Messrs Youngman, of the Sunbury Ga
7.ett, have just put in operation one of Hoe Sl co's
best hand Press, upon which they now print thai
excellent democratic paper,
The Scikn rinc American. We have recei
ved several numbers of thin valuable publication,
it it devoted entirely to Science and mechanics,
and should be in the hands of thoie who feel an
interest in the progress of improvement. The
Scientific American is now publishing an essay
on the amendment of the existing Patent Lw,
for which the publishers have paid fcli'O. Thi
work may be had at S'2,00 per year. Address
Muiini.co.,New York.
Accident. The Danville Democrat, of last
week, nays that on Tuesday a boy named Wm.
Harris, ai;ed about 15 years, had his leg broken
about the knee joint. It was caught between the
Car- wheel and an ore-bank. Amputation may be
necessary to preserve the little felluw'i life.
It has not Paip Expanses. The editor of
the New York Tribune still insists that the "Tay
loriution of the Whig party has not paid expen
ses." Hear it .'
"There was once a party in this country, to
which it was our pride and pleasure lo belonir,
united by a common attachment lo certain leading
principles touching tire proper action of the Fed
eral Government. Tliat patty was called the
Whin party."

Let monaichs revel while (hey may,

No heal la so tree or gay as w e,
On this our lestal night ;
We need no regal pageaut here,
No banners wreathed with fame
Fur bggliter far our trophies ate,

Kach Printer lives himsel! a King,

And Tin oiio and down mut topple down,

And o'er (he world his banner waves,

High honor to the noble Art !
By far the brightest gem
That ever threw i s lustrous hue
From Freedom's diadem '.
E'en now it gleams the guiding star,
Far distant o'er the wave,
Where millions fight to gain the right
Of Freedom, or a grave !
Then brothers let our Daily Toil
Bo sung in festal strains
While bards shall sing or weapons ring
On earth's wide battle plains.
Or while one Tyrant's throne isleit
For Truth to trample down,
Our mystic Art will bear its part
Of glory and renown !

His nimble fingers kiss the tkfk;
Nor is it when, with lengthened faco.
The sturdy devil's tail he gripes.
'Tis not when news' of dreadful note
His columns all with minion fill ;
'Tis not when brother printers quota
Th' effusion of his stump-worn quill.
'Tis not when in Miss Fancy's glass
Long Advertisements meet his eye,
And seem to whisper as they pass.

No reader no the Printer's hour,
His hour of real sweet repose,

School Tratliem-
If there is any station, more than anoth
er, which requires, more especially, a pe
culiar talent and cast of mind; it iu the
Teacher of a public school. Where are
crowded together, as under one system
boys and girls, young- men, women, and
children ; it requires more tact, discretion
and management to succed well, than gen
erally falls to the lot of those entrusted
with the education of youth.
It requires patience, tact, talent, ingenu
ity and firmness : to make aschool all that
the public good demands. The most la
mentable deficiency is often manifested by
Teachcrs.in almost every respect. Those
whose buNiness it, is to obtain, employ and
support a competent man; arc in most ca
ses deplorably remiss in their duty. Cun
it he expected that a man who has spent
much time and money in filling himself for
the profession or calling of a common
school Teacher, is tither able or willing to
undertake a severe and laborious occupa
tion, for inadequate compensation ? I do
not so much blame a man who is noto
riously inoompetent for taking a school ;
but I do blarrie a board of directors who
make thcfmselves asses, by employing such
a man. Thoy are the most egregious fools
and greatest knaves of the two.
At this same time, a mau who knows
himself unfit to fill the station to which he
aspires, and who must, in his sober mo
ments acknowledge his incompetency, (of
course no insinuation against General Tay
lor is intended) should be held up to pnl
I'to scorn and indignation. Such a man is,
with malice aforethought swindling the
public and obtaining money under false
pretences. A Teacher should be a man of
extensive and varied information. He
should be master of every branch he pre
tends general literature ; so that he can
explain, illustrate and enforce his positions
and opinions.
The most successful, and at the same
time most delightful way of fixing a lesson
in the mind.and of rendering a study inter
esting and entertaining to the young mind
is by oral instruction. A Teacher should
have his mind stored with apothegrus, b
lustrations and comparisons. Very fi'W
studies are in themselves interesting to a
beginner, but there are none which cannot
be made so, by a competent master. It is
then of the greatest importance that such
iin one should be selected to fill this post,
the well filling of which, is so essential to
the welfare of the union and the happiness
of its citizens.
The first step then in so great a desider
atum, would be the electing as officers,
men of mind nnd discernment , men who
would he willing to give a fair compensa
tion for a good Teacher.
But this is not all, for many men whose
education fits them in every respect for
this delicate station; are still deficient ei
ther in energy, tact or morality It is of
the greatest importance that the Teacher
should not be objectionable in this point.
One example will do more in a school,
than half a dozen precepts. This should
be borne in mind by the selecting and ex
amining committee, as well as by the man
asking for n situation. Religion is profita
ble unto all things. A high tone of honor,
sentiment and feeling, are most powerful
anxiliaries in the moral conduot and succes
ful government of a promiscuious public
school.
Again : a Teaoher should use every
schollar with marked respect. Respect a
man ind he will respect you. Make him
believe you esteem and think well of him
and he will endeavor to deserve your good
opinion. Do not make a public example
of a Pcholnr. exVpnt on VPru xnerittl nun.

blown down the partition wall, shattered one of
the doors into pieces, and partly broken another

entirely blown out, and tho class broken into
small fragments, and the crockery on the fahle

That's certainly a new feature in zoology
an(1 anatomy- A whimbimper ! Well, let
him out, or clear the ring, or old Hercules

The keeper was excited. Accordingly
Nat raised the bag, holding the appertur
downward.and out rolled a huge snapping
turtle, while the cheers and laughter of the
audience made the arches rin".
Th-th.there he is !' said Wheatly, as he
tilted the whimbamper over with both
hands, and set him on his legs. The snap
per seemed unconscious of his peril.
Wheatly was about leaving the ring, when
the keeper swore that his lion should not
j disgrace himself by fighting such a pitia

Hut it's unfair!' said the shovman.
Tlie audience interposed and insisted
l,r,on tnr 'I'hi're was no escape, and
the show man reluctantly released the linn,
making himself secure on the top of tho
cage.
The majestic bcust moved slowly around
the ring, stiuliing and lashing, while every
person held his breath in suspense. Li
ons are pn ing beasts, and this one was
not long in discovering the turtle, which
lay on the Hour, a hugh inanimate mass.
The lion soon brought his nose in closo
proximity to it, which the turtle not li
king, popped out hU head and rolled his
eyes, while a sort of wheeje issued out of
its savagerous mouth. The lion jumped
back, turned, and made a spring at the tur
tle, which was now fully prepared for his
reception. As the lion landed on him, tho
turtle fastened his terrific jaws on the lion's
nostrils, rendering him powerless Udo

ded around the, circle, growle-.l, roared,
and lashed himself, but the snapper hung
on, seeming to enjoy the ride vastly.
(I -go it, whimbamper 1' cried Wheatly
from the boxes.
The scene was rich. The showman
was no less enraged than the lion. Draw
ing a pistol, ho threatened Nat that if he
didn't take his turtle off, he'd shoot
him.
'I'a-ta-take him off yourself!' shouted
Nat in reply.
At this critical moment, by dint of losing
a portion of his nose, the lion shook the
j dangerou, foe frnin him, and clearing the
space between him nud the cage with
a bound, he slunk quietly in, to chew tho
bitter cud of his defeat and pain.

I having been discovered in a mountainous
country on the Siera Nevada and spec
ulation as to what it is or what it camo

the propability is that nature in one of
her freaks has sent into the world an ani
mal of the horse species but with such
variations as to forge the original. Like
tho tune of Yankee Doodle as thev now
play it with the variations, which said
variations have destroyed Yankee Doodle !
So with the horse the variations prevail
