Educational Department, BY R. hi'DIVITT. ESSAY, Read by A. W. BENEutc•r; Esq., before the Hun. tingdon County Teachers' Institute, . December 22, 1854 : Subject—ME Lew or SUCCESS. Every thing has its law of being. In all the meterial world certain and never chang ing law controls material existence. Wheth er it be in the grosser matter of inanimate creation or in the active and symetrical beau of man, who was made only a little lower than the angels. Whether in the monstrous and frightful creatures of irrational life, or in the etherial emanations of deity, which spar kle in the light of rational truth and love.— Every where there is a taw which speaks in to being, and impels on in progress to per- Action. - ' Law, says the great commentator is a rule of, action. I purpose no treatise upon law in the narrow and sharp sense of the word —a 'dry abstract and obstruse science only interesting to the plodding student,—the ma tured barrister, and judge, and the anxious appellant to its forum for justice; and it may be interesting to the Quirks, Gammons and Snaps, - who seek to draw into the entangling ,meshes of their, (not the laws) net, some unsuspecting fly of a client, whose first step is one of danger, - which makes its last one of of death, more certain. Yet, I doubt not a thought, or word will not be thrown away, though 1 rnake,law my subject for to-night. If Law be o. rule of action, then actions are but the workings of certain rules. This is a self-evident proposition, that hardly needs illustration. A. stone cast into the air must come down—a stone coming down must have been cast up.. In truth it is but anotrer way to declare that effects are but the result of causes. It may be laid dawn as an axiom that fixed and unalterable law has produced all results. Let me direct the teacher and the taught to this truth, and inquire, if instruction may not be gathered for us all. There.is a law of .intellectual life, that "as iron sharpeneth iron so man sharpeneth the countenence- of his friend." In obedience to that law of the allwise Law Giver, are we here assembled in this institute to sharpen our wits,•and enlarge our wisdom by the ge nial reflection from the ,presence of our fel lows: What are the imp'resisve teachings of that law and what great lesson of light and life should we all learn from its proverbi al worth. Each of you in your hours of toil, when exhausted patience and wearisome and plod ding•zeal, have wasted strength and energy ; when dull 'stupidity or' restlessness, arfac tive mischief, oppress the man and mind, and excite temper, by their and your fruitless efforts at progress, should remember this law, or you may leave searred into the mind so dull, so stupid, so restless, so thoughtless, or even mischievous, some error in thought or action , which' it may be the rough friction of the world Will deepen, and which nothing but , clivine truth can wear away. . The true purpose of mind will leave its image daguerreotyped upon the prepared and susceptible minds of its associates. This is strangely true, when the matured and fully developed intellect finds companionship with its equals. How much more marked is its truth' where the-might of superior mind and will asserts its power over the confiding and admiring spirit of the trusting and hoping child. Hiw, carefully should we weigh every •word and calculate the force of every action, fearful lest this law would produce effects that would be fatal to good. How certainly do we impart to those around us the spirit which directs or controls us. There is a law of con tagion which seems to pervade social life in every sphere. Our smiles and our tears come alike unbidden to mingle with those who Weep and those who rejoice, though we be no party to their joys or sorrows. This law of sympathy moves us by its mysterious will to do its subtle bidding. It is a law of life, that earnest, faithful pro tecting love.begets an abiding desire in its recipient to return the affection in kind.— It is the witching tenderness of a mother's love and faithfulness that begets in her off spring that holy sympathy known as filial piety. The seed cast into the earth does not more surely spring up and with its bud and blade and blossom bring forth its kind than do all these special laws produce their ripened har vest. - The little school rooms are but the nurse ries and flower gardens of intellectual culture. It is the teacher, you and your compeers, throughout our broad land who are planting and transplanting, and grafting and budding, and pruning anti training the scions of im mortality, that they may finally takeiheir place in the broad paterres of our beloved land and win a brighter destiny, when the "last deep beating of the heart shalt be still ed in death. . , They are the little family circles, where endearing love, faithful zeal, patient perseve rance and watchful guardianship, if shining forth in all the truthfulness of a mother's love must win tQ busy and active toil, the throng of young immortals, who gather around the mental board where are fed the spiritual and maternal man with that food which shall nourish into maturity and strength the glory or the shame of our country. 'And here must be- made _so apparent the purpose of will, that with that irresistible force which is the law of will, is attrac ted and drawn forth, and led onward with submissive obedience, that throng, thus asso ciated with, and which lives in the atmos phere of that law ; and upon which the shad ows and images, whether of the teacher's temper or morals or love of right or dislike 91 .. wrong ; or earnest and 'absorbing devotion to the present pleasure, and prospective success and usefulness, are left and reflected back up on the world. The mind of a child is not unlike the,camera obscura. The light is let in through some .small opening, unobservable to the outside passer by, yet inside are seen dancing upon its walls the dim it may be, yet the certain reflex outline of the external world ; and thus upon the chambers of the child's soul are seen the shadows of the rights and wrongs before and around it. They dif fer only in this,—in the obscura.the light and its reflected image fade together while on the canvass Of the child's being they become the fixed realities of life. There is a law of success. In the thous ands of shemes and projects, and purposes and designs of human being there are certain determinate laws of action, obeyed, the desir ed end is surely attained,' neglected and dis regarded disaster defeat and disgrace as as suredly follow. . s • [CONCLUDED NEXT WEEK.] ,1):7-The Registration Act which cost the Stab) about $30.000 has been repealed. Something on the Know-Nothing Ques- tion from one of them. The following is an extract from a speech delivered by Mr. LITTLEJOHN ) the Speaker of the House of Representatives, New York. He has seen "Sam" for one time only, and he tells his experience in a very terse manner. Hear him, he says. As to the Temperance nomination, though he received such nomination, it was without his influence or advice. As to his connex ion with the Know-Nothings, he would tell all he knew of it. Last March, while a mem ber of the House, some of his friends asked him to attend a lecture. He went with them to a room, where he was assured by the offi cer of that Society that he was to do-noth ing that was contrary to anything against which his conscience would revolt. He was asked to make a promise. He did make the promise, and if his recent course was treason, make the most of it. If he had perjured himself, make the most of that. He now de clared himself opposed to the principles of this Association . As to his pledge to vote against Wm. H. Seward, rotted might be his tongue to his mouth, if 'he ever made such a pledge. He would give, as briefly as he could, a complete exposition of Know-Noth ings; but he would say, from, the moment he left that room in this city, to this, he never entered it again. It was enough for him to say that he saw in that room what would pre vent an honest man from ever entering again. He admitted that the foreign vote had an un due influence in our election. And'-he saw - this in the last Presidential election-. Hear him speak upon the manner and mode in which the Know-Nothing Lodges are organized and conducted. This state ment must contain facts, for he was one of them. In speakifig of the order, - he asks: Was it an institution to which •an honor able man—a freeman—a Christiari—conld belong 1 He thought it was not. He belie ved men here belonging to it were honest, but that they were dceived by political tricksters. In July last a Grand Lodge was organized, called a Grand Council. Go to New York and you find the Grand President —J. W. Barker —occupying a power in the State equal to a monarch. And this Grand President alone appoints one deputy in each county, and what sort of a .man will this deputy bel .Why, a second self. And what does this' deputy do? He is armed- with the power to create as many lodges in the towns of the State as he pleases. He selects nine men as the nucleus of these lodges, to estab lish them; this second self of J. W. Barker selects these nine men, and these nine men select three-delegates to the Grand Council, to make nominations and oaths to bind the body and soul of the innocent members of the Order. The officers are thus the creatures of one man—James W. Barker in New York. Mr. L. describes the duties of a K. N., and their tendency, and final destiny : The duty of these men—this Grand Conn cif—is to make oaths to bind men who are invited to hear lectures and to make no nom inations. Original - Know-Nothingism was to use influence against foreign influence.— This as a whig, he Mr .L., could go with.— Mr. L. had read here proceedings of the Grand Cauncil, the purpose of which was, that no delegate was to be received who did not sustain their State ticket, and members not voting for Ullman, were expelled. Mr. L. commented on these proceedings, pointing out their tyranny. He inquired if.in Europe there were any power so despotic. Had any - thing in this broad land over been heard of equal to this 1. Was ever a man called upon and required to say, under oath, whether he did that which the Constitution says he may - do ? Whether ho voted against a certain man? And what was the crime of voting for Gov. Clark ? And yet this society, called American, expelled men for voting for Gov. Clark. Was such a Society worthy of the name of American. And he would predict that in twenty four months no man will be found who will acknowledge his connection with such a political engine. Mr. L. describes the manner of conducting business in the lodges, as he learned it while a member. There was another power centered NS ith these nine men, which was, that any five men of these Councils may reject or black ball any applicant. Was this.democratic ? But why was this? Why, James W. Barker might lose the power and control he had.— This sceme was perfect, and could not be altered in three years. There was no power to alter it. It has been said the Couficils instruct these three delegates, to overcome the designs of J. W. Barker. But this is not true. The by-laws gave the right of ap peal to J. W. Barker from the councils to the Grand Council. These schemes are perfect— they are not known to the masses—had not' been to him, but he had learned them since his arrival in Albany. Mr. L. had read re solutions, directing emissaries to be sent to Albany to defeat the re-election of Wm. H. Seward, as also other proceedings, exhibiting the powers of the Order. Mr. L. follows up the order, as to its pow er of expelling members, because they do not choose to vote and act as the bigots of the so ciety direct them : The next was, directing measures to be taken in regard to offending Councils. And what was the offence I They had dared to act independently. The Grand Council had made nominations—not knowing, perhaps, they had been made—they were to be expel led. If this Grand Council could do this much what was there they might not do ! He remembered the Inquisition—the acts Of the Jesuits—but their powers would be as nought, compared with this. organization.-- Who knows bnt the thumb-screw—the tortu res of the Inquisition—might yet be ordained by this New York Council. But American power and American freeman will never, he believed, submit to the establishment of this or g anization. Mr. L. had read proceedings of a Council in Brooklyn, which took place last November, denouncing the action of the Grand Council. He only had this scar to show that that had Already commenced, which would be carried out throughout the State. He meant that this political engine would be hurled from power in this State. The above -extracts are from the speech of a gentlemen, who was at one time a leading man of the Know-Nothing party ; but, be coming disgusted with its anti-republican principles, lie left it, and has had the manli nessto expose from the high position he now occupies the vices of the party struggling to destroy the most cherished principle of the character ()four free institutions. The public 'Works A Bill has been introduced in the House of Representatives, at Harrisburg entitled "an act to abolish the Canal Board and to provide for the better regulation' and management of the public works," the purport ofrivich may be summed up in a few words. It proposes to abolish the board of Canal Commissioners and to place all the power now vested in them in the hands of an officer to be appoin ted by the governor with the style 'of "the superintendent of public works." If this bill should become a law, it will be taking a long step backwards. The most corrupt period in the history of the public improvements, was unquestionably when the board of Canal Commissioners were appoin ted by the Governor. This fact cannot be controverted. It was considered a great step forward in reform, when the choosing of the Canal Board was given directly to te peo ple, and the assertion will not be ventured from any respectable source that the man agement of the works has not improved un der an elective board, however defective it still may be. And the change will not only be , a step backward as - regards the proper management of the works. It will be violating the re publican principle,' that puclic patronage should came as.directly from the people as possible.- -It will be a direct admission that the people are not capable of selecting com petent-officers to take charge of the public property. The proposal to vest the entire control of the improvements in a single individual is highly objectionable. In no State or Coun try have works of such magnitude ever been placed in the hands of one man. The idea of placing some eight hundred miles of canals and railroad under the control of a single in dividual, was never before dreamt of. We cannot suppose, however, that five members of the Legislature seriously entertain the idea of passing this bill, and it is therefore unnecessary to occupy, further space in noti cing its objectionable features. What the people want, is to see the public works taken out of the hands of State offi cers. They don't want to see-one set of of ficers,driven off' for the purpose of making room for another set, whose stomachs are empty from long years of fasting. Too PROUD TO BEG.—It is said there are thousands, of worthy citizens, men and wo man, in - New York—as there are, no doubt, hundreds in - all other large cities—who are too proud to beg or let their circumstances be known; and are, therefore, silently pining iii secret 'destitution. The. Mirror says tee pawn-shops only tell their sad story, and adds : - 'First go the luxuries—the superfluous fur niture—the silver spoons—the spare cloth ing—the jewelry, even the bridle ring, and so through the whole inventory of articles that can be dispensed with, while life is re tained. To accomodate this inborn and inal ienable American pride, the pawn-shops are provided with stalls, so that the melancholy bartering may be done without exposing the poor victim of that 'peculiar. institution' to public shame. The amount of business at these establishments, within -the last three months, exceeds all precedent. Watches, gold pencils, and silver spoons, have been pledged by the bushel, and every nameable and unnameable article of furniture and cloth ing. A friend of ours saw a poor woman at Simpsorf's one day last week, pawning. her under-clothing to raise a shilling to go•to mar ket with. Another had cut up her bed, and made it into pillows, which she had pawned for a similes: purpose." Incidents of the War No FIGHTING 'WITHOUT BREAKFA ST.-A lively army correspondent writes as follows : Cr While eating is no part of a soldier's life in the Russian camp, in the French camp it is quite the contrary. A Frenchman must have • his breakfast befoie he fights, and he will.cook and eat it' in them - ost of burst ing bombs rather than miss it ; for between the fear of losing his breakfast and his life there is about an even balance. On the mor ning of the battle of Inkermann 7,500 Eng lishmen were compelled to stand the shock of 45,000 Russians for three hours before the French division arrived, the latter hav ing stopped to eat their breakfast before star ting to the aid of their. suffering allies.— They fought beautifully, as they always do, when they did arrive, but in the mean time there had been a fearful slaughter of English men, which otherwise might have been sav ed. This is one of the facts which do not appear in print, for .the good of the alliance, but it is nevertheless true." WOMAN'S RIGHTS IN NEW HAMPSHIRE.- A Miss Caroline S. Freeman, of Manchester, New Hampshire, avows that she has certain inalienable rights, notwithstanding she was not born "a boy baby," and among others the right to seek as well as accept a husband. She concludes her declaration of indepen dence as follows "Against those exclusive privileges on the part of the other 'sex, I, with thousands of others of my own sex in this city, earnestly protest. And lam authorized in their name and in their behalf, to declare that, on and after the 4th of July, A. D. 1855, we pro claim and publish to the world our indepen dence from all such cruel and unchristian restriction.,• And this is to give timely notice to all single gentleman (widowers ex cluded) of industrious and temperate hab bits in this city that they must improve the few remaining months to the best advantage; for, after the incoming of the immortal Fourth, we, the working sisterhood of Man chester, will show what woman can do in this great, heretofore restricted 'commerce of love by gallanting around modest youth, making declarations and popping questions." A Singular Character---Hia Burial The Auburn Daily Advertiser mentions the death at Weedsport ; Cayuga county, on 26th ult., of one Harmon Weedon ; aged 86. He had. acquired a handsome corn' etency, and many years ago made • all his arrange ments for his -burial. He constructed .for himself a stone coffin of the Cayuga lime stone, well finished,. the cover setting over the sides on a rabbitted shoulder, and bolted together with six half inch bolts, running through from top to bottom, and secured with counter sunk nuts. He requested to be buried in that with "his cloak wrapped around him,'" and no minister was to be allowed to come near hinL 'His coffin weigh ed one thousand five hundred pounds, and he gave particular directions how to lower him into the grave. All of his directions were explicitly followed, and by his directions the coffin was not only bolted but cemented to gether so as to be water-tight.
