Six hundred farmers of New Eng

the subject of the milk trade.
To make a Democratic politician

CtnGRissmx Macut, of South
Carolina, died unexpectedly last week.
His district has a large number -of
colored men in it, and they elected
.him to Congress ; in return for their
rotes he put many negroes in office
in South Carolina.
It Fitz John Porter, had marched
when he was ordered to do so by his
commanding officer, he would be
free of the trouble of his life. The
rebel generals Longs treet and Jack

march.
Thi cashier of the Union Market
Bank, of Watertown, Mass., disap
peared a few days ago, with a large
sum of money that belongs to the
bank. He was an energetic church
member, and leaves a wife and four
children. It is not known what has
become of him.
Th colored eexton of the First
Baptist church of Hackensack, N. J.,
died, and was refused interment in
the yard of the Hackensack Cem
etery Company, which has raised such
an excitement that Governor Abbett
has Kent a special message to the Le
gislature, asking for the passage of a
civil rights law.
Cht the proposal to furnish every
Congressman with a clork on govern
ment pay, a Southern benevolently
indued paper remarks :
What would most of these Con
gressmen have to do if they had
clerks to answer their letters 1 They
would be absolutely idle and I ex
pect that idleness would lead to im
morality. It's better to keep them
bu6v running around after seeds and
census reports.
Some of the politicians told Gover
nor Pattison that if an apportion
ment bill is not passed by the Legis
lature that the Commonwealth will
not be allowed a representation in
the nest Congress, and therefore he
contemplates calling the Leg'ilature
in extra session the second time. If
he wants to bury the Democratic
party under a Republican victory of
75,000 majority next fall, get him to
re-convene the Legislature.
The talk about the marriage of
Fred Douglass with a white woman
had scarcely died out till it was sup
plemented by a talk over the mar
riage of Miss Lizzie Lane, colored, in
Baltimore, to Mr. Nathaniel Parrott
Twelve hundred persons were pres
ent, it was the largest wedding that
has ever token place in the city. The
ceremony was performed in the North
street Baptist colored church. What
sensation will the colored folks get
off next!
Tu Democrats kept up a contin
ual protest against the granting of
public lands to railroad corporations,
during the time that the corporations
were asking Congressional land grant
aid. Now that certain railroads have
forfeited their claims to large tracts of
public lands, what has become of the
Democratic protests t Now is the
time for Democratic Congressmen to
enter their protests. Protest, gen
tlemen, do more than that vote as
you protest
A labci crowd assembled in the
Senate chamber a few days ago, in
anticipation of a debate over the re
solution of Senator Sherman to in
vestigate certain alleged election out
rages in Mississippi and Virginia.
Senator Sherman and Mahone spoke
in favor of the investigation, but the
regular Democrats sat still and only
listened, they had held a caucus a
few days before, and there it was de
terrain ed upon, that the Democrats
should not reply to the Republicans in
speech. The resolution passed by a
party vote of 33 to 39.
Ik our boyhood days it was a com
mon thing to "play horse" among
the boys and girls, which was done
by a girl or a boy taking hold of one
end of a string, and running while
the other end was held by another
eirl or bov. as the driver. Grown
people 6till "play horse" in New York,
as may be learned from the Brooklyn
Eagle, as follows :
At a recent private ball at New
York, a new figure was introduced
at the close of the ererman. The
dancers were harnessed by silken rib-
hnna in btouds of three abreast on
one side three ladies driven by a man
and on the other three men driven
bv a ladv and thus to polka music
hv danced from one end of the
large ball room to the other.
"TTos. L Newton Evaxs. who re

ard dollars."
Mr. Evans proposes to do what 95
per cent of the people throughout
the country desire to have done.
Here and there a man wise in his
own estimation on the question of
the trade dollar will talk about the
trade dollar being in the hands of
speculators and so forth, but the
common sense of the people meet it
by declaring that Congress has done
a wrone to have a coin afloat that
can be worked by speculators. Equal
ize the coin and the speculation must
come to an end.
Sovi days ago, cadets at the An
napolis Naval Academy proposed to
haze a cadet named Craig, sad as a
preliminary or introductory they or
dered Craig to stand on his head, he
refused and "escaped into a room,
where he was followed by the crowd,
who attempted to catch him. In the
confusion the light was put out and
Craig managed to give one of his tor
mentors several effectual blows with
a pair of skates which he carried.
He then escaped outside. The first
class men, however, laid their plana
and as Craig came out from supper
he was jumped upon by six or eight
cadets, one six-footer being quite
conspicuous in the cowardly attack.
Craig, by the way, is not more than
five feet seven inches high. He
would probably have suffered severe-
le had not several fourth class men
opportunely arrived to take part
This soon became a general melee in
the new quarters. It was finally
stopped by the officer in charge and
the combatants were separated."
The boys should be taught the old
fashioned idea of personal honor, and
that when a man or a set of men at
tacks them, to take care of them
selves, even u it becomes necessary
to knock an assailant or two "into
the middle of next week."
Fred Douglass's White Bride.
The young lady is said to be quite
attractive and of medium build, her
distinguishing characteristic being a
very wavv suit of black, curling hair.
She has been residing at No. 913 E
street for some time ; and it was not
until this evening when she appeared
in the parlor attired in a garnet silk
and velvet gown, with hat to match,
that the occupants of the residence
suspected her matrimonial intentions.
The call of Mr. Douglass in bis fault
less evening attire at once aroused
the suspicion that she was to be his
bride. It has been known for the
past six months that Mr. Douglass
has been very attentive to her, the
couple being often seen out driving
together though neither the family
of Mr. Douglass nor that of the bride
knew of the wedding until after it
had taken place. It appears there
was a legal question involved, an old
law of the district prohibiting the
intermarriage of the two races, and
Mr. Douglass, after securing legal
advice, decided to take the conse
auences. Several other marriages of
this kind have taken place here, and
as no prosecution followed, the
chances are that none will ensue in
this case unless 'he parents of the
bride should try to have the marriage
annulled. Miss Pitts is well known
as a writer on woman suffrage and
moral reform, being for a time the
assistant editor of the Alpha, a paper
published here in those interests.
After the wedding they drove to the
residence of Mr. Douglass in Anacos-
tia, a Suburb of this city. To-morrow
it is understood they will go
north on an extended bridal tour. Mr.
Douglass has four grown up children
from whom he kept his intended
marriage until this afternoon, and
when his daughter was informed of
what her father was going to do she
was greatly effected. His marriage
is quite a surpise as it is said he has
openly denounced miscegenation as
detrimental to the welfare of the col
ored race. New York Herald.
McCoysville Institute.
Reported by Jabis B. Bihi.
As announced previously, teachers
and friends of education met in the
public school building, on Friday
evening, Jan. 25th, at 7 o'clock, and
being called to order by our Super
intendent Wellington Smith, organ
ized by electing him presiding officer,
and W. J. Allen, Secretary. The
house was filled with earnest listen
ers, and the Superintendent stated
that the object of the meeting was
to edify and encourage teachers and
create an enthusiasm in favor of ed
ucation among teachers, directors
and citizens. The Chairman then
appointed reporters to the several
county papers, as follows: James
B. Henry, for the Sentinel and Rs
pcblican; F. T. Drolsbaach, Juniata
Tribune; J. N. Keller, Democrat and
Register; George H. Martin, Port
Royal Times ; C. W. Bashore, Juni
ata Herald. After these preliminar
ies the work begau promptly. Prof.
Ailinan was introduced and spoke on
"educating the Masses. The speak
er advocated good schools among the
laboring class and demonstrated that
the safety of our republic and the
prosperity of our and every nation
depended upon the virtue and intel
ligence of its people. The address
was strong, profound, and intensely
interesting. J. JN. Keller opened a
discussion on "Who is Responsible
for a Poor School T" He placed the
the responsibility with the parent.
G. II. Martin placed a part of the re
sponsibility with the teacher. Meno
Esh divides it between the two par
ties teacher and parent Director
Eidd &aid that the County Superin
dent is an important factor in the
matter, but emphasized that every
parent ought to know where his child
is and what it is doing. Mr. John
Randolph looks largely to the parent
for the blame, because children that
are trained right at home will do
right abroad, as a rule. Edwin Da
vis most emphatically blames the
teacher, on account of laziness, dis
qualification or lack of interest
James B. Henry, William J. Allen,
and Prof. A'l", argued the blame
largely upon the citizen or parent.
The Superintendent left the respon
sibility with teacher and parent but
by far the most with the former. No
discussion could have been more ex
citing, interesting nor beneficial. Fif
teen teachers were present at tins
time. At 10 o'clock p. m., the In
stitute adjourned.
The morning session oi saturaay
opened with Grammar, by the Sup
erintendent a class drill of great in
terest and value. Geography, con
nected with History, by Prof. Ail
man, and continued by the entire In
stitute. The discussion resulted in
airreeinsr that History should not
be tautrht without teaching where
towns, battlefields, rivers, 4, of
historical importance are located on
the map. Next, music, by the Com
mittee. "We are passing away. Ad
journed. At 1 o'clock p. m., Prof. W. E. Au
man talked on "Juvenile Composi
tion." The subject was fairly hand-
died, and on account or tne great
dread to it, he would teach it as
though he taught it not call it by
any other name. Fundamental rules,
by J. W. Eenepp, and close black
board illustrations by tee bupenn
tendentand suggestive points thrown
in by Prof. Auman, W.J. Allen, rroi.
Ailman, J. N. Keller, J. G. Long,
made this a very prominent feature
of the Institute. Here the Institute
was lavored by virgie Auman, oi
Mifflintown, a little girl, four years
old. Nothing could have been pret
tier than this exercise. The bouse
came down in a solid applause. Read
ing, by Prof. Landis, was the crown-
in e feature of the Institute, up to
this time, a valuable talk and a mag
nificent class drill. We say that no
more useful and practical drill was
ever witnessed in Juniata county.
Before adjourning leading members
of the U. P. church gave permission
to the Institute to meet in the church
for the evening session.
At 7 o'clock the church was crowd
ed. The choir, Flora Randolph, Liz
zie Stewart Maggie B. Laird, Sadie
Randolph, Adella White, Howard
Randolph, Charles McMeen, William
Laird, and William r ltzgerald, open
ed with the appropriate piece, "Our
Little Ones." Styles in teaching was
taken up, by George H. Martin. His
divisions were, 1st general style ; znd,
military style ; 3rd, graveyard style ;
4th, whipping style; 5th, scolding
style, continued by the Institute. So
interesting was this discussion that
it could scarcely be closed to make
way for the essays, by Miss Lmily A.
Fulton, on "Objects of Discipline,"
Miss Mary J.Wise, "Object of Study,"
Miss Gertie Beale, "Object of Pun
ishment Miss Annie J. Milliken,
"Difficulties in Teaching. These
were carefully prepared papers and
were listened to with the most pro
found attention. Remarks were made
on each of the papers by the entire
Institute. An appropriate and af
fecting address was then made by
County Superintendent Wellington
Smith, in which he returned thanks
to the members of the U. P. church
for their sympathy for the cause we
labor in, the choir for their services,
and the citizens for their large at
tendance and great interest in all the
session. On motion of Director
Kid J, seconded by Mr. James Junk,
a vote of thanks was tendered to the
Superintendent for his able manage
ment and securing such earnest
teachers to lead at the Institute. The
value of this meeting is immense and
the acquaintances formed and asso
ciations that cluster around it will
endure while our grand system of
education shall last and this will not
be we fondly hope till our Republic
must crumble to dust
