The French, in a battle in Chic lost 215 men, bnt they won the fight Ax effort, it is said, will be made in Virginia to abolish the law that prohibits dueling in that State. m Several amendments to the con stirrtion to meet tbe objection of the Supreme Court to the civil rights bill are bef' re Congress. Kepudlicax presidential candidates are looting up. Harlan, Blaine, Lin coln, Arthur, and General Sherman, are freely talked of for the place. Daxctxo masters of the chief cities deemed their business of such iuipor to r?nuire the holdinr of a coutcil, which was held ia rhiladel pLia last week. Pahties at Washington are at work upon Congressmen to get a bill through to pay for the cotton that was destroyed by Sberiuiu's 6olJ:ers while on their inarch to the sea. The bones of the assassin, Guitean, have been put together and placed in a roo:a of the Army Medical Mu seum in Washington. Serjeant Ma son vihi'ed the placa the other day, and aflor looking at the skeleton, shook his fi.-t at it and muttered: "You bones caused a heap of trouble in this land." Between the white elephant that he recently bought, and his will which he recently made, P. T. Barnum is getting a great deal of free advertib ing. A few days ago he niade his will, and to put the soundness of hi3 mind beyond doubt, he called in three doctors and had them sworn that they believe him to be of sound mind. Whes about to get in hia carri.-.ge, a few days ago, General Grant fell and was so severely hurt that be wa1; carried iuto his house, in front of which the acciJent happened, aud he has been in bed ever since. His left leg was not broken but the muscles were severely injured. He lives in New York city, and is aged 62 years. Tbe New York Journal says that a trick was played on Berg!), the auti-crnelty to animals man, by send ing him word that at a certain place in the city, calves were fattening on sawdust. Eenrh went to the place pointed out, to discover that he was the victim of a sell. The place was the dressing-room of a theatre where the legs of thiu actresses were fatten ed and rounded up with sawdust. Bergh left in a hurry. Some days ago President Arthur was in Now York, and while there, some crank or lieud loitered about the hotel at which the President stopped for the purpise, he said, "of serving Arthur as his predecessor in the White House had been treated." He was taken to police headquarters and searched ; a bowie knife and a loaded revolver were found in his hip pocket. He should lie sent to a pris on or an asylum for insane people. People in a certain part of Tioga county are excited over the prospects of finding coal oil, a test well is be ing drilled. The despatch that an nounced the oil prospects also an nounced that the health of ex-Senator B. B. Strang is not good, which is unpleasant news to the many friends of Mr. Strang. When in the Senate Mr. Strang made many friend by Lis manly and statesman like course. The public service would be much better than it is, if such men as the ex-Senator would have the am bition to push themselves forward in politics. Thk Philadelphia Times says: A wounded soldier out in Burling ton, Iowa, has relinquished his pen sion because he has entirely recover ed from his wounds and does not think it right to longer take the mon ey. This is one of two or three such cases reported during the past eigh teen years, in Fpite of the fact that thousands of men, especially officers abo e the rank of captain, are iu the same condition. If some of this con scientiousness could ! distributed fairly among the men who are con tinually assaulting the government for pensions never earned, the fraud rjlent agents would find a harvest less rich and the Pension Office would be the gainer by many thousands of dol lars each year. Speaker Carlisle announced the Congressional Committees in time for Christmas, to make some feel glad, and othera to feel sad. There is con siderable, of a growl from such mem bers as wanted a chairmanship. Our Congressman, Atkinson, is a member of the Committee on Railways and Canals, and Patents. The South carries off about half of the prizes. This Commonwealth has been award el four chairmanships. Ex Governor Curtin received that of Foreign Re lations, Hopkins that of the Commit tee on Labor, Randall that of Com mittee cn Appropriations, and Mitch ler on Reform in the Civil Service. Henbt Wabd Beecher has pronoun ced himself a believer in tbe doctrine of the evolutionist, and in favor of a tariff for revenue only. Good by Mr. Beecher.

If the devout Wattereon whosr disciple Beecher is in following tbe apostle of Free "Tr-o.Vi mti hiwimn th rlisrinla of j Apo8tie Beecher in abolishing Hell, thev can tart out arm-in-arm in the new politico-religious departure. And what a grand and inspiring national ticket Beecher for President and Wattersoc for Vice President would make. How Colonel Ingersoll would enthuse over it and make tbe hills and valleys echo his eloquence. Let us have Beecher and Watterson, with the platform against the two new twin relics of barbarism Hell and Protection. The National Christian Conven tion, a society in opposition Ma sonic and other secret organizations, was in session week before last in Philadelphia, and among other busi ness transacted was tbe paesags of the following resolutions : That all secret organizations are links of one and the same chain ; that the Masonic Lodge is the parent source from which ail similar mod ern organizations nave einanaieo, and that that Lodge is now in active operation in every city and consider able village in the country, swaying parties aud churches, filling offices, r-ecular and diviue, with its partisans, shaping political doctrines and teach ing a spurious and corrupting moral itv, subversive both of the Christian reli-rion and of free institutions. That the so calied Grand Army of the Republic is an insidious, danger ous and useless form of organization, which is better lilted for keeping a live and glorifying the memories of war than for advancing those inter ef.ts.of peace for which all great war is waged. Tub 1'hiiadelphia Tiuits remarks, that people who are foolish enough to imagine that anybody can sfford to give rocking chairs, marble-top t.ibles and ingrain carpets along with thirty-cent packages of tea deserves to be swindled The authorities should exert themselves to break up the disreputable swindling perpe trated by these bogus tea venders, but their victims deserve sympathy. e desire to get something for noth ing is rs dishonest on the part of the buyers, who Lope to profit by their purchase, as it is on the part of those who sell what they never intend to deliver. Honest people are willing to pay a fair price for a good article, aud generally get it Those who want to get a good article for noth ing are either dishonest or very ig norant. The thieves and swindlers who engage in the business of sell ing poor tea and promising a valua ble gift with it would have no cus tomers if it were not for people who are as dishonest as themselves. Items. Prairie dogs dig their own wells. An Altoona man is held in $100 bail for swearing. Eight tons of candy have been sold in Fittsbarg every day for a month past General Sheridan's mother, 83 years old, lives in Ohio, and the Gen eral goes to see her once a year. In Fulton county two Italian rail road laborers were killed by a tree which fell on their cabin. Three others were injured. An Erie county burglsr was foiled in an attempt to commit a robbery the other night by a pair of lovers who were courting. Mrs. Alice Lnd wig, wife of Charles Lnd wig. of Greenville, has left her home and four cliildren and eloped with her husband's dissolute brother. John Sherman is discribed as be ing tall, thin, stoop shouldered with trrsy hair, a sparse beard deep wrink les and steel blue eyes, and wearing badly fitting clothes. N. S. Styles, of Warrenton, Geor gia, watched for the robber of bis hens' nests, and saw a half grown heifer go to a nest and eat its con tents, shells and all. Paupers in the Berks county Alms house are greatly terrified over the recent adopted law which gives the bodies of the dead poor to medical colleges for dissection. A few weeks ago Frank Bosler, of Carlisle, aged fourteen years, smoked a pack of cigarettes in one day. He became ill, vomiting lreinently and has died from nicotine poisoning. Jacob Hoffman, of Montour coun ty, gathered, with the help of his iamuy, one Hundred busliels oi shell- barks. He shipped them to the larg er cities to supply holiday demands. While feeding a grain mill Leon aid Scott, a Wattsburg, Erie countv. farmer was torn to pieces by an expiosion. lie had been celebrating his wooden wedding and when kille 1 "was taking a turn at the mill to help a sick inend. , Within the last five or six weeks diphtheria has been in every family in the borough of Coal mont Hunting don county. The public schools have been closed for four weeks on ac count of the disease and many chil dren have died. Dr. D. T. Robinson, of Buffalo Mills, Bedford county, died on Christmas morning from the effects of an annethetic which he had taken to relieve a severe pain in his side. He took an overdose, went to sleep and never awoke. While Franklin Snavely and his two sons, Jacob and John, aired re spectively U and 17 years, of Read mg, were Kuniner, John shnned on ice and fell. His gun was accident ally discharged and killed his broth er almost instantly. While Mrs. Will iam Dickson, nf Amwell township, Washingtcn coun ty was helping her husband to nn. load bay, their 4 year-old daughter, who had been left in the house to take care of an infant, was bnrnfd in j death, her clothing having caught fire at an open grate. - - ,fam.. - , - The clothing of Elwin Haupt, a miller, of Schuylkill township, Ches ter county, was caught by a revolv ing shaft in bis milL He barely bad time to grasp a pillar, which he clung to with all his strength. Every garment was torn from bis body, and even one of his boot-legs was ripped. Tbe bodies of two tramps were found alongside of Daniel Bastian's lime kiln in South White Hall town ship, about five miles west of Allen town, Sunday week.' They were seen the day before at a hotel near by. i Both were well soaked by the rain and, finding the lime kiln, they took off their shoep, laid down, and never awakened from their nap. There is no truth in the story of Isaac Page, of North Coventry, Chester county, that he fired four shots at eight or ten ruffians, who, be said, attacked and robbed him of all his money $16 on Monday night The only adventure he bad was with John Barleycorn. The story was invented to explain bis di lapidated condition to bis wife. The Auditor General has address ed a circular letter to each judge, district attorney and county treasur er in the State, containing the deci sion of Judge Brown, of Warrea county, as affirmed by the Supreme Court on the 22nd of November last, concerning the license of bottlers. It requires bottlers to take out li censes, the same as venders of malt, brewed and spirituous liquors. A Justice of the Peace of CouDcil Bluffs performed a marriage ceremo ny the other day for quite a lively and positive couple. When asked if she would "take this man as your lawful and wedded husband," the bride responded: "You bet your life, Judge, I will." When pronoun ced man and wife the bride turned to the Justice with a surprised look and asked : "Is that all there is to the ceremony for $2 !" She evident ly expected a lengthy ceremony and a big reception, banquet and presents t.irown in. On the 20th nit, at Princeton, Mich., ubout three hundred nion, women and children gathered in church to attend the funeral of Mrs. Jane Mclntyre. As the people exoce to their feet in lesponse to a feature of the service the centre of the floor gave way, settling a distanco of six feet A panic encued and the great est excitement prevailed. Tbo peo ple were Jumped into the cellar iu a promiscuous heap. The broken fur- nace poured forth volumes of smoke, adding terror to tbe scene. The floor had given way so as to form a V, and in the centre piled people and benches indiscriminately. Every window in the building was shatter ed, and, though men, women and children were piled upon each other in laver.s, screaming, kicking, praying and fighting, heu all the crowd es caped from tbe building it was found that r.o one was 6erious'y hurt, al though many had fingers and other small bones broken and many were painfully crushed. After the excite ment had subsided the corpse was gotten out of the debris, taken to an other church and the funeral services proceeded. ADDITlO.SJiL L0C.1LS. Argument Court Proceedings.

OI.1VIB. Read at tbe late Teachers' Institute. An Incentive (from (be Latin inctndo, to fire up, to rouse, to excite,) ii that which stirs or incit'- on to action. Without any incentive, human industry, and human mind would remain dormant. It is only through incentivra that all our great industries are controlled and carried on ; and, as in the industrial, so in tbe mental field. - Not only are incentives employed by hu man beings, but animals, plants and Bowers employ the same as a means or existence. Why dots tbe beautiful rose throw open its perfumsd petals unless it be as an incen tive to tbe bees and bniterttit-i to search Tor its honey, and distribute its poll:i. In tbe same way wild animaU attract smaller ones by their imitstive cry, and afterward prey upon their bodies. Incentives only rouse or incite the mind to accomplish the desired end ; and in proportion to the strength of the incentive will the action be. What are wise and unwise incentives as us ed in the school room to secure study Let it be distinctly understood that no incen tive named as wise should be carried to the extreme else an unwise one is the result. Also it is very necessary that an incentive be cautiously and properly used ; for, as a tailing leaf on the young plant, has warped the giant oak forever, so an incentive im properly used may warp the mind or body of the child for future usefulness. Ceuld we see tho effect of some of these improper incentives, and in this 1 include proper ones carries to the extreme, no doubt we would be appalled and be more cautious in their use Before me lies a block ot marble and it is very necessary that I use the right in strument in shaping it or I may spoil it, so with tbe mind ot a child, ii is altogether ne cessary to know what incentives to use in order that the desired result may be obtain ed. Wise incentives are those that reach the greatest possible number of cbild.-en ; a few of which may be mentioned : A very proper and wise incentive is to impress tbe child concerning its own future usefulness , there is no child but that desires to be a good and uselul man. Eul'orce this by us ing examples of tbe good and great. I don't mean that the child's mind should be "s tuff ed" w:;h the deeds of those -goody goody" people, who exist only in novels and story books, but there are men whose lives may be held up as worthy of imitation by chil dren ; best use ot living examples whereby everything pertaining to hero-worshiping ia removed. Another proper incentive is, the promise of part of a day's recre.tion ; the same to be spplied by tbe teacher to the practical study ot a portion of Geography along some neighboring waters ; or to some other branch applicable to open air work ; we need more practical work anyhow, and this might bo used as a means ot obtaiuing it. I had a tew scholars who failed ia com mitting some of the dry dttiuitions ol Geog raphy ; so I used tbe abote as an iuciive to study, and as a method of impmiLg those definitions. I hope the inquisitive- ness of some of our teachers will be an in centive to them to try the tame if they de sire to know what satUfactory results fol lowed. I believe we ought to ki;l two birds wilb tbe same stone'' whenever we can, and n penally in an overcrowded school room. Another and always a very wise incentive for scholars to know their lessons is for the tescber to know hit les son and I do not know but that it is an in centive that might be used s litils more ia tbe school room ; for if a schoUr sees yon know the le-son he will in most cases try to know bis from mere iinitatiou. Scholars are good imitators and this fact we may use as a wise incentive. Grade marks it prop erly used are wise incentives, inasmuch as every scholar u reached Ly them, and their own personal crroKTS are closely marked and periodically reported, fellow-teach-err, to those of your stud-nts who must study hard for a lesson, and, iritb regret for their own condition, see their fellow-students learn tbe lesson iu half the time and seemingly twice as perfect, do not forgut to remind them that, it the head is so thick that it is hard lor knowledge to get in, once within the same thickness also, prevents its departure. Perhaps this may serve as an incentive to hard working aud seemisgly poor reciting students to persevere. 1 re peat it.. Do not push a wise incentive too far. Keeping the idea before us that an in centive ought always to reach the Urgest possible number, we will next notice prizes; these condemned by soma and by others sustained are certainly inducements to hard working schol irs to redouble their dil igence, and to an indolent o je to lag still farther behind j to the latter the incentive is next to an impossibility a very great im probability. It is much like ottering an ear ol corn as a temptation to a horse which al ready is straining every nervo to move the load, while the other lazy one seeing the corn afar off knows that he snoot roach it ; at least, offer the lazy one bay, and see if tbe situation will not change ; by this I mean, do not offer prizes unless you have a prise for each one, graded according to el fort. Fears ol punishment in some cases may be good incentives to study, but iu most c ises they should not be used as they appeal only to the baser nature of the child and stir up in most minds thosu feelings which proper and wb.e incentives should not. In short, as to what are wise and un wise incentives, the teacher must to a very great extent be hia own judge, both as to the kind of incentive and the extent to which it should be used. Where one in centive produces the desired effect, another might tail. What one teacher uses with success another attempting the same, fails. Where unwilling children are compelled by their ptreuts, or when our laws are such that children will be compelled to attend school for certain time during the year, and then, when such incentives are thrown around their young lives as will cause them to leel that study is a pleasure, and that each sehooldsy is a stepping-stone of that great causeway leading over the dangerous period of youthful lile, preparing them to enter manhood's years with clean hearts and pure minds when the law aud the teacher bave accomplished tku then may the parent on the return of the child from school say, in the language of the Roman mother, "These, these are my jewels." The Sentinel and Republican- office ia tbe place togot job work done. Try it. It will pay yon if you need anything in that lis. ListofPettit Jurors drawn on the 29th day of December, A.
