Ik* sou Ik till* qj Main Street, tkird *ulftloti oil pilvMlO lUOattw Ol ll* dividual patriotism? Or il may have been that all the conditions appeared to be secur ed—both adequacy of aulary and "skill and experience in the art of leaching"—yet fail ure ensued. But who will condemn the of fice, because, here and there, a good teacher may have made a poor Superintendent?— Many an able lawyer makes a miserable Judge; few of the most successful practising physicians are qualified for the Professor's Chair; so a capital teacher of boys may not succeed aa Teacher of Teachers and admin istrative officer of a complicated school sys tem. It would be no difficult task to run over the whole State and show the correctness of the concisions just staled. But it is neither proper not necessary. Taking it tor granted, that experience has fully justified the wisdom of the Legislature in requiring the selection of a fit person and the payment of a sufficient ealury, lor this office, two questions arise: 1. Who is a fit person for the office? 2. What is a sufficient salary ? I. 'Literary and scientific acquirements.' These are both indispensable, and the de gree of them should be considerable. In every county, schools of every rank and grade—from the lowest primary to the high school, with its full round of branches—are or must soon come into existence; and to discharge the office properly, the Superin tendent must be qualified "to examine" all the Teachers, "to visit" (hem, and a "give such instructions in the art of Teaching and the method thereof in each school" as the condition and grade of each shall require.— How can this be done, except by one who is scholar enough to teach the Teacher of the highest branch taught in the highest school in bis county t 2. "Skill and Experience in the Art of Teaching," ia another requisite—not only sk ill to know, but practice to do. It is no doubt true, that, in some instances, the office has been well filled by persons of no great actual experience in the art. This is owing to the known fact that some men have nat urally in them so much of the elements of the Teacher, and such a love for the work and the cause, as to supply,to a great degree ail other defects. But the exception only proves the rule, for the instance of failure for want of this element have been too nu merous to leave the question doubtful. But mere learning and professional ekill are not sufficient, unless, as the law and the neces sity of the case everywhere intimate, they are accompanied 'with power to make them efficient. Hence, 3. Ability to impart knowledge, and give information, publicly as well as privately, is indispensable. Since the passage of the act of 1854—in addition to the public meetings for the examination of Teachers, and the visitation of school* in the presenoe of di reclors and parents thereby prescribed—the holding of district acd county Institutes, As sociations and Meetings, for the improve ment of Teachers, and the delivery of pub lic lecture* and addresses for tho furtherance of the system and the explanation of the law, have become eo general, and are found to bsvo beneficial, that they may now be regarded as an integral part of the Superin tendent'* duller. All these occaion impose the duty of addre**i:ig the public; and the officer who doe* not do it, fail* in hi* duty. Some ability therefore to *pe*k in pub'io slum Id be embraced among the requisites of fnnes* for the office. 4. Energy of character and love for the work, urn the' last essentials that need be specified. Without these, the highest de grce of scholastic attainment, of professional skill, and of power of expression, wilt fail, for the great moving forces of the required character will be wanting. With these pres ent in large degree, even a medium of quali fications iu other ibspecte muy succeed. Amongst the qualifications necessary to this most important office, it is, of course, not deemed requisite to speak of temper ance, honesty or indus'ry, nor of common sense, suavity of manners, or knowledge of human nature. These are requisites to the sale and efficient discharge of every public trust; the one in question being no exception to the general rule, but rather demanding them in greater degree than most others.— In a word, and aside from sporial requisites, the nearer the character of a County Super londenl approaches to that of the Christian gentleman, the giealer will be his acceptance and success. The answer lo lite question, What it an adeqnalo sulury? will depend mainly on the locality ; and the experience of the past three years will, in many eases, modify part action on this point. Many of the Conventions fixed lite salary in 1854, under a total or very material misapprehension of the nature of the office, the amount of service required and the degree of good lo be effected. Now, in many parts of the State, all these points are clearly comprehended, and the action of the directors will no doubt bo different. No one who knows the people of Pennsylvania will, for a moment, suppose that injustice will bo done in regulating the compensation ol those who are found to be amougat the most useful, most laborious and most impor tant of our public agents. The salary must, as just remarked, depend on tho circum stances of each rase; still, certain general principles aro indicated by the nature of the office and the wants of the achools, which it may be useful to elioit. The first point to be determined is, wheth er the whole, or only a portion, ol the of ficer's time will he required for tho lull dis charge ol lite office. This will wholly de pend on the number of schools in tho coun ty. If Itiey are muteriaily over 100 and should Do luiaßßpea, men me UCBI pouey and tho course most productive of good, will be to pay for his whole lime and ser vices. In such cases mora than half ol the year may be most beneficially devoted lo school visitation, which, to be effectual, should ho full and frequent. The rest of the ( year can be profitably devoted lo the improve | menl of the Teachers in one or more fnsti i tutes of greater of loss duration, lo tho offi cer's own improvement and lo the prepara tion of his reports, &c. In smaller counties a less portion of the officer's time will be needed, and the salary may be in proportion; but in all cases enough ; should be given to secure his whole lime and efforts lo the service of the schools while in operation, and lo the improvement of the teachers during a portion of the recess. The only other general principle to be kept in view in arranging the salary, is that ol making it large enough to command the very best professional talent within 'he reach of the Convention. For reasons already giv en, no oiher should be thought of. The man, then, whom Law, Experience and lite Wants of the System demand for County Superintendent, is: A practical Teach er, who it also an accomplished scholar, and a ready public speaker; with sufficient love for il to undertake, and energy to perjorm, the great work before him; and the salary should be suf ficient to compensate him, as far as money can, for the efficient discharge of so great a labor. Wherever such a man is found, he should be selected. Wherever he has already been found, he should be retained. At the ptesent lime it may be proper to re call to the attention of Conventions to elect County Superintendents, that Section 40 of the school law of Bth May, 1854, confers upon the State Superintendent of Common Schools, very considerable powers in refer ence to the commissioning of the persons elected. The words alluded to are these: "If objection be mide within thirty days to the issuing of such commission, the Su perintedent of Common Schools may re quire such evidence, unddr oath or affirma tion, in regard to the election or qualification o f the person elected County Superintendent, as he shall deem necessary, and shall then issue his commission to the porson properly qualified who shall have received the high est number of votes." Under this provision it is competent for any citizen, and it would seem to be his du ly, to make objection to the commissioning of an unqualified person, and to set in ope ration, for the good of the system in this re spect, the powers vested in the State Super intendent. In view of this fact, the true course lor Directors in their Convention will be, to vote for none unless such as by learn ing and professional tkill are fully qualified to discharge all the duties of the office.— Pennsylvania School Journalfor April.

Truth and Right Rod aad aar Country. A SWMHMI TALE. TRANSLATED FROM THE GERMAN OF HEBEL. In Frlug, r mining town in Sweden, t hun dred yeers or more ago, a young miner kiss ed his lair bride and said to her: " On Si. Luoia'e day our love will be blessed by ihe priest's hand. Then we shall be hus band and wile, and we will build us a neat little nest of our own." "And peace and love shall dwell in it," said the boaulilul bride, with a sweet Rmile, '.'for thou art my all In all, and without llieo I would choose to be ill my grave." But when the priest, in proclaiming their bans in Ihe ohuroli for the second time before St. I.ucis's day, pronounced tlio words, "11, | now, any ene can show reason why these | persons should not be united in the bonds of I matrimony," Death was at hand. The young ; man, as he passed her house next morning i in his black mining garb, already wore his shroud. He rapped upon her window and said good morning,—but he never returned ;lo bid her good evening. He never came back from the mine, and all in vain she em broidered for him a black ornvat with a red border, for the wedding day. This she laid carefully away, and never ceased to mourn or weep for him. Meanwhile, time passed on; the Seven Years' War was lought; the partition of Po land took place; America became line; ihe French revolution and the long war began; Napoleon subdued Prussia, and the English bombarded Copenhagen. Tlio husbandman . sowed and reaped, the miller ground and (he I smith hammered, and the miners dug alter the voins of metal in their subterranean work | shops. As the miners cf Falun, in the year eighteen hundred and nine, a little before or after St. John's day, were excavating an open ing between two shalls, full three hundred oils below the ground, they dug from the rub bish and vitriol water, the body of a young man, entirely saturated with iron vitriol, but otherwise nmlecayed and unaltered—so that one could distinguish his features end age as woll as if he had died only an hour before, or had fallen asloep for a little while at his ( work. But when they had brought hint out lo the light of day, luther and mother, friends and acquaintances, had long been dead ; no one could identify the sleeping youth, or tell any thing of hia misfortune, till she came who was once Ihe betrothed of that miner who had one day gone lo the mine and never re turned. Gray and shriveled, stio came to the claca hnhnt'mu unon a crutch,and renoon!-®-' her bridegroom, when more in joytul ecstncy than pain, she sank down upon the beloved form. An soon as she had recovered her composure, siie exclaimed, "'lt is my betroth ed, whom I have mourned for fifly years, and whom God now permits me lo see once more before 1 die. A week before the wed ding time he went under the earth and never returned." Alt the bystanders were moved to tears, as they beheld the former bride, a wasted and feeble old woman, and the bridegroom still in the beauty of youth ; and how, after the lapse of fifty years, her youthful love awoke again. But he never opened his mouth to smile, nor bis eyes to recognize ; and she, finally, as the only one belonging to him, and having a right to him, bad him carried to he; own little room,till a grave could be prepared in the church yard. Tbe next day, when all was ready, and the miners came to take him away, she opened a little drawer, and taking out the black silk crsval, lied it around his neck, tnd then accompanied him in her San day garb, as if it were their wedding day and not the day of his burial. As tbev laid him in the grave in the churchyard, she said— " Sleep well now, for a few days, in tby cold bridal bed, and let Dot the time seem long to thee. I bave now but little more to do, and will ccme soon,and then it will be day again." As she was going away, she looked back once more and said, " What tbe earth has once restored, it will not a second time with hold." Decisive Battles of the World. The decisive battles of the world, those of which, to use Madam's words, "a contrary I event would have essentially varied the dra ma of the world in all its subsequent scenes," are numbered as fifteen by professor Creasy, who fills the chair of ancient and modern his tory of the University of London. They are the grand subject ot two volumes by him, just from Bentley's prnss. These battles are : 1. The battle of Marathon, lought 490 B. C., in which the Greeks under Tiiemistocles, defeated the Persians under Darius, thereby turning back a tide of Asiatic invasion, which else would have swept over Europe. 2. The battle of Syracuse, 413 8.C., in which the Athenian power was broken, and the West of Europe saved from Greek dom ination. 3. The battle of Arbella, 331 F C., in which Alexander, by the defeat of Dar us,establish ed his power in Asia, and by the introduction of European civilization produced an effect which as yet may be traced there. 4. The bailie of Metaurus, fought 207 B. C., in which the Romans under Coosol Nero defeated the Catthagenians under Hasdrubal, end by which the supremacy of the great re public was established. 6. The Viotory of Arminus, A. D. 9, over the Roman legions under Varus, which sc oured Gaul from Roman domination. 6. Tbe battle of Chalons, A. D. 4M, in which Aotiue defeated A til la the Hun, the •elf-styled "Scourge ot God," aod caved Ka topa from entiro devastation. The battle of Toors, A. D. Tgg, in which Charles Mar el, by the defeat of the Saracce* averted the Mabommedan yoke Irom Eu rope. 8. The battle of Hastings, A. D. 1066, in which William of Normandy was victorious over the Anglo-Saxon Harold, and the result of which was the formation of the Anglo- Norman nation, which is now dominanl in Europe. 9. The battle of Orleans, A. D. 1429, in which Ihe English were defeated, and die in dependent existence of Franca secured. 10. The defeat of Ihe Spanish Armada, A. D. 1588, which crushed the hopes of Papacy in England. II The battle of Blenheim, A. D. 1704, in which Marlborough by the defeat of Tallsrd, broke the power and crushed Ihe ambitious schemes of Louis XIV. 12. The defeat of Charlea XII, by l'eler the Great, at Pultowa, A. D. 1709, which se cured the stability of Ihe Muscovite empire. 13. The battle of Saratoga, A. D. 1777, in which Goners! Gales defeated General Bur goyne, and which decided the fate of the American revolutionists, by making France their ally, and other European powers friendly to them. 14. The battle of Valmy, A.I). 1609, when the continental allies, under the Duke of Brunswick, were defeated by the French un der Dumourier, without which the French revolution would have been alayed. 15. The butile of Waterloo, A. D. 1815, in which the Duke of Wellington hopelessly detested Nspoleon, ani saved Europe Irom his grasping ambition. A Fanny I'bmnlx.

John Rive* an account of a meeting be tween a fellow passenger and liia wife, at New Orleena. He wad accompanied by liia old friend Uullerfield, who had joined him at Memphis*; he landed at New Orleans, and proceeded forthwith the St. Charlea Hotel.— At this great tavern Kutterfield expeclad lo meet his wife, who had arrived from Cala foruia, to rejoin him afier a three months' separation, l'hcnnix says: " I have never seen a man so nervous.— He rode on the onlside of the coach wilh the driver, that he might obtain the earliest view of the building that contained his adored one. | It was wilh great difficulty that I kept pace with him as he 'lumulluou-ly rushed' up the steps leading lo the Rotunda. In an instant no was ai in*-, .au.,..a iu® u*t terfield.' 'ln the parlor, sir,' replied Dan, and he was off. I followed and saw him slop with surprise as he came lo the door. In the centre of the parlor stood Mrs. Butlerfield That Admirable woman had adopted the very latest and moit voluminous sty le ; and having or, a rich silk of greenish hue, looked like a lovely bust on the summit of a new mown haystack. Butterfield was appalled for a moment, but hearing the cry "Amos," he snswered hys terically, "My Amander !" and rushed on. He ran three times around Mrs. Butterfield, but it was of no use, he couldn't in. He tried to climb her, bnt the hoops gave way and frustrated the attempt. He extended his arms to her; she held out hers to him : tears were in their eyes. It was the most affecting thing I ever witnessed. Finally, Mrs. But teifield sat down, and Amos got behind the chair and kissed her, until their offspring, bv howling and biting the calf of his leg, crested a diversion. They were very happy, so were the people in the parlor. Everybody appear ed delighted : aDd a small, boy a year or tvro older than little Amos, jumped op and down like a whip-saw, and hslloa'd -Hoop-ee' with all his might. 'Butterfield,' said I, an hour or two Hter, 'I suspect that Mrs. Butterfield has adopted hoops.' 'Oh! yes,'snswered he, 'I saw that stick ing out. Perhaps it will obviate tbe little tendency she had to 'blow up.' 'l'm glad of it."' The Pacific Wagon Roads.

TALLKYKAND'M AI'IIOHISSIa. Our welcome to a stranger depends upon Ibe name he beara—upon the cnat he wears; our farewell upon the spirit be has displayed tn the interview. There is so great a cliartr in friendahip, that there ia even a kind of pleasure in ac knowledging ourself dupsd by the sentiment it inspires. Unbounded modesty is nothing mote than unavowed vanity ; the too bumble obeisance ia sometimes a disguised impertinence. Tit. reputation oi a man is like his shsdow —gigantic when it precedes him, and pigtny in its proportion when it follows. Beauty, devoid of grioe, i a mere book without a bait. lie who cannot feel friendship is alike in capable of love. Let a woman bswnrs ot the man who owns that he loves no one but her self. The Count de Coigny possesses wit and talent, but his ennversation is fitigueing, be cause his memory is equally eioclin quoting the death of the I'liiiceas de Uueroonee'a poo dle. To oontradict and argue with • total stran ger, ia like knocking st a gate to acertaiu i' there is any one within. The love ol glory can only ereate a hero , the contempt ol it creates a great man. The errors of great men, arid the good deeds of reprobates, should not be reckoned in our estimates of their respective charac ters. It is someihing'quite enough for a man to feign ignorance of that which he knows to gain the reputation of knowing that of which he is ignorant. Both erudition and agriculture ought to be encouraged by government; wit and manu factures will come themselves. Too much sensibility creates unliappiness; too much insensibility creates crime. It ia an attribute ol true philosophy never to force the progress ol truth and resson, but to wait till the dawn of light; meanwhile, the philosopher may wander into hidden paths, hut he will never depart from the main track. A generous man will place the benefiis he confers beneath hi* feet—those lie receives nearest his heart. "The World owes roe a hiving''' Thai's (me, sir! It doesn't owe you a farthing.

It is no unprofitable study in natural his* tnry to trace back the history of an instinct. Teach a spaniel to beg for food, and yo often trace in its pups a tendency to th samo habit. Let a setter bo trained to sat, and its progony will do so instinctively, though they may never oven witness the action performed. The chicken, though countless generations, pick up crumbs and insects from the ground, while the wood pocker, with boak adapted for it, sita "tap ping the hollow beecn tree." We may take the eggs of the duck, and the unconscious hen will sit upon them and hutch them, and guard the progeny aa her own; hut no sooner have these little ones cracked the shell, than by the inward impulse, they seek (or the water and swim oil, to the infinite terror of the poor hen who hatched them, and who vainly triaa to lure thurn away from what seems to hae to be their certain destruction. Thin wisdom of the web foot, this pro ponsiiy, or instinct, whence comes it?— Neither by education nor example, that is clear, neither is it anything communicated by the hen, nor her life, nor her instincts in any way transferred; neither is it any pe culiarity in the matter of the egg, as analy sis could probably show. Is it then the re sult of organization ? And if so, what doee this mean but the result of' motion 1 If we take an egg, and put the wet tip of the tongue to the large end of it, we at one# become sensible of a gentle heat, if the egg is alive. This is then the germ of all the after vibrations of life, stimulated by the vital warmth of the hen, and these pulsa tions transmit the instinctive tendency that impels the duck to the water, embodying a kind of memory, or impulse, from former generations, quite distinct from that of the hen. These vibrations organize the fluid of the egg into a form corresponding with the idea of which the whole past suggests as the intended future of the bird. The uneducated but honest Christian seee or thinks he sees, iri this, however, the im mediate finger of God, a part of the all per vading mind of Hirn in whom we lire and move, and have our being: His* wisdom directly imparting wisdom to each creature according to its wants. Bui. as v.a have already seen, a more ex tended observation will indicate to a reflect ivp mind that instinct is. after all, a pan, at least the result of fixed laws, and bet as in nate tendency to reproduce actions that at* habitual in the parent. And this very law, . so tat from allowing us to lose sight of a designer, will conduct us back to a precon certing mind, comprehending, arranging and rewarding ail actions, so that each vio lation shall consolidate into an h alitcaily recurring purpose, each purpose into an in stinct, and each instinctive habit shall en tirely mould even the physical system in accordance with the whole—sharpening Tn e beaks and hollowing the hones of birds.giv ing web feet to water fowl and caw to beasts of prey, the immaterial thus forming the material. It then the differences of instincts are aB merely those of development of 'be inten tions and habits of me varions atumats, throcgn the course of ages and generations, and if every exercise of every habit has ia it the tendency to reproduce itself and so become hereditary and ins:, octree. it is no measure lessens be marks of a p—•pass ia. creation.
