To the Board of Control of Public &hear, of Ai/8-
,040;1y City :—GENTLEIEEN :—Tho Committee ap
-pointed by you to inquire into the respective merits
cf singing and writing in cur Public Schools would
nape:daily report that two meetings were called, th:.
first of which but two members attended; the HIP
end was attended by three out of thvfour.aerre
considered it proper, having a majority, to ful as
tar as we could, the duty assigned us, and we now
deeire to present the result of our deliberations.
You can believe that we were appointed with the
Impression that the funds were not sufficient to pay
either a teacher of music or writing. But having
had an opportunity of cal:alining the. accounts of
the neon:to Committee, and assured by them that
we here ample means to employ both, we would re
commend that in addition to the music you would
employ two or more thorough experienced practical
- penmen. Believing that a parson whose attention
has been especially given to penmanship, and who
is apt to teach and instruct other would throw around
it such a degree of interest as to enlist the attention
of pupils, and excite among them a spirit of hada.
hie emulation which cannot he so effectually done by
a teether whose mind is necessarily occupied with a
variety ef other studies. Besides, an experienced,
practical penman would teach his pupils to write
with an ease, fre.e.doen, (ma rapidity far superior to
teechere engaged in varies s studies.
But we would especially urge you to employ ex
perienced, good writers, because we believe in the
wisdom of the saying of Ageselaus, the Spartan
Ura, who, when asked, "What it was in which
youth ought to ho principally histreteted ?" replied,
• That which they have to practice when they bo
ectee e-en.” So, particular attention ought to be
given to writing, because it has to be practised by
every one in every situation of life. Besides, it it
net lett eptionnl with the Board whother they will
have it taught or not, the law requires it to be
tough!, and it is presumed that you will have it
tueght by the mast competent persons within your
reach, and according to the most approved method.
Your Committer, believing that we have ample
means to continua the music, and also employ teach
ers of writing, did not consider it necessary to carry
out the strictly literal instructions of the Board, and
discuss the respective merits of each, believing that
yeti would concur with us if the funds are Farcient.
Lot us employ both. In this recommendation the
members of the committee who had an opportunity
of interchange ef sentiment unanimously agreed,
although thane was a difference of opinion re.speoting
the merits of eaels, some preferrinc music on acoount
of its sublime pethee and soul-stirring melody. But
others, E.,) far as the Publie Schools are concerned,
aro inclined to occupy the time in less ethereal
things in this mundane sphere, and urge rather the
acquisition of ' these qualifications which fit the
young for the'practical duties of life, which was the
grand deetri-p4or which the Common School system
was adopted.'`
Bat, happily, the fevers:Ma condition of the
finances remeeeed all ground of discussion and saved
yeur honorable body having your patience) afflicted
with lengthy arguments, pro and con, traaides ma
jority and minority reporte,
Music is a very important accomplishment, and
ought to receive your fettering care. It is heolthfal
to the body and pleasing to the mind, and if daily
practiced will conduce to tho development of the
mental and physical organisation of the young, and
promote cheerfulness and good humor by the hare
:cony of sweet sounds.
But it is not for these purposes that you employ a
pro eseor of music, so much as to instruct our youth
in the knowledge of music. It is to teach them the
rudiments, or, if you will, the A, B, C, and direct
them how to Bing, not by the oar only, bat by the
book, according to the rules laid down in it, and so
tortelithem, slap by step, until they are able to read
or sing a piers of music which they have never seen
before.
But we are informed that cur youth have not ad•
winced so far in the knowledge of music; and if not
it is for you to determine whether the time or manner
of teaching it are such as to produce, the very impor
tant desideratum in music.
We r mild recommend toot a committee bo ap
poiUted *ho are skilled in music, and that they be
requested to visit the sehools,_ and report monthly to
the Board the result of their visitation. All of which
is re3p4:setfufly submitted by your committee.

The eircamii - tances attendant upon a marriage re
cently consummated in Allegheny City, have inci
dentally reached no, and as they are of a romantic
character, we will give them without mentioning
c.ny names. Some eight years since, a lady of Alla.
g,heny, with her daughter, then only eleven years of
age, took a pleasure trip to Ireland, her native coun
try. There she encountered a friend of her youth,
who bad grown with time to be an old bachelor.
She playfully twitted him concerning his single
blessedness, when he replied that, although richly
oadovied with this world's goods, he had never found
i.,ne the softer sex Who struck his fancy, adding
that he would finally be obliged to come to America
to get a wife. The lady answered that she would
raise her little girl, then present, for him. He said
be would one day claim the fulfillment of the prom.
and the party separated. Tho lady returned
home, and the.girl basin the meantime ripened into
- 5 3manhocd. Her mother kept her studiously seclu
ded from young society, and some three weeks since
the Irish bachelor to whom she had promised her
4iand eight years before, arrived here and claimed
pis bride. The nuptials were celebrated, and the
young lady returned with the venerable, but wealthy
friend of her mother, to his home in Green Erin,
having met him but two or three times previous to
becoming his wife. Verily, " truth is stranger than

We alluded briefly yesterday to the fact that Mr.
John Bissell had met with an accident near Harmo
ny, Butler county. We regret to state that we have
since learned that the accident resulted fatally.
It seems that cn Thursday morning, Mr. Bissell, in
company with another gentleman, started out on a
hunting excursion with their guns and dogs. They
stopped for breakfast at a house on tho road, when
their dogs began to quarrel. Mr. Bissell, in endeav
oring to separate the animals, placed his gun between
them, when both barre's wont off. The contents of
ono barrel too lt effect close to the artn.pit of his
right arm, and' the other in his shoulder near the
breast. The arm was shockingly mutilated, and am
putation being necessary, Mr. 8., unwilling to trust
the physician who was at hand, sent to the city for
Dr. Dickson. Daring the absence of the messenger,
efforts were made to staunch the bleeding, but with
out snceess, and when Dr. Dickson arrived, Mr. B.
was so mach exhausted from loss of bond that he
died in a short time afterward. Mr. Bissell was only
thirty years of age, and was a worthy man and an es
teemed citizen. He leaves a wife and two children
to mourn his loss.

MR. JAMES P. BARR :—Sir :—in your paper of the
2nd of September, an article, I suppose from some
of our experimental mon who have brought the road
into the swamps, that the best Railroad team in the
United States had to be brought to pull them out. I
think their experience has been far overrated, and
too much paid for it. lion. Foy, a distinguished
French orator, counts such men as the league and
condition of them who tyLuld .a.e.ewe without pro
ducing, live without working, know without learning,
carry all honors without deserving tl'em, and occu
py all the places on the Railroads, where fat salaries
ere to be got, without knowing bow to fill them.
Ist. As to me being discharged from the service of
the company, I pronouce it an onanalified falsehood.
2nd. I have only four shares in the road, and I am
glad cf it. 3rd. ..t one time 1 ha I a hundred and
fifty shares, and I think I have paid a little too dear
for the Whistle, but I am yours far rcforin, and it will
all come right I hope.

THESE PILLS HAVE NOW, TO A
limited extent, been before the public in this section
of the country for a period of over twenty years, and from
the fact of their not being more generally known through
out the length and breadth of the land, it might, perhaps,
bo inferred that they are lacking in some of the great &wen•
tials of a family medicine, or that there are other Pills their
superior, etc.; but such, however, is not the case, their sup
ply from a want of disposition or ability, on the part of the
original proprietor, (Dr. Wilson,) was almays limited to each
an extent as at times to renderit difficult to fill home orders,
but with even this disadvantage wherever used they have
never failed to call forth ,the strongest testimony in their
favor—testimony in many instances unsolicited—not gotten
up expressly for publicity—but freely proffered to the in
ventor as expressions of gratitude for the great benefits de
rived from the use of these truly wonderful Pills, in proof of
which we subjoin the following:—
We, the subscribers, Ministers of the Gospel, and members
of the Pittsburgh Annual Conferenc - of the Methodist Epic
,pal Church, having each and all of us, during the p tat
few years:, had frequent opportunities of learning and trying
the character of Dr. It. A. Wilson's Tonic, Cathartic, and
Anti-Dyspeptic Pills, are prepared to, and now state v ith
pleasure, in this communication. that we know them to be
an excellent medicine, and, as such, recommend their are
to our friends and acquaintances, not only as a specific for
Slak-Headache and Dyspepsia for which they are recom
mended, but as a safe family remedy among children, and
for the prevention and removal of Bilious attacks, etc.
