There are about 50 churches and meet

coon ty,belongingto or used by the various
denominations of Christians. Though
none are what in this age would be con
sidered grand or costly, yet as to-number,

believed to be as fully equal to t 4 needs
of 'thepopulation as ar€ tbose of bur ru.

Before' the drganizatior. of -the county,
most of the families residing here took
one or more of the newspapers published
weekly at Wilkesbarre ; the most popular
of wirch was the Glegner, edited by
Charles Miner,- whoie essayS, "From
the desk of poor Rcbett the Scribe," and
'History of Wyoming, - ' prove him a writ
er of more than common and Me
rit. In 1.816, a newspaper was commene;
ed at Montrose; and Since then by change
of name, and addition some3o have been
issued in the county. There are now , five
weekly journals issued in . the county ;
some of, which have a larae circulation
for rural county papers, Secular, literary
and religious journali from the cities, are
largely patronized by our Population,
• Although no white men dwelt here until
after the close of the lievolutionary war,
yet among our eat ly settlers were. ,some
150 soldiers op the war of independenoe.
Patriotism inherited froin their \pilgrim
anceitryc. was a leading trait and virtue
of the' pioneers of this county; which
though scarcely organized, furnished a
' goodly number of i soldiers to. the. war of
1812.. In the late Istruggb for the preser
vation of the Union, this County furnish
ed some 2500 soldierst to the :union army
at least one-third of whom were - killed,
wounded, or ruined in health in. the ser
vice. A monument is being raised to
their memory.. ,
The patriotism and services of our men
were nobly secondedif not equelled by the
zeal and labors of our women.; the moth
ers, vives, sisters, daeghters, and
.friends
of the soldiers ; in gathering, supplying
anctdistributing such things as were nec
. eisary to prepare them.- fox entering the
service, and also to minister to their needs

Shows that in' education our county, is
gradually" advancing, though yet far be
low what. it should be. The teachers areriot,
n ot, as a class, 'as- competent' and well
-traind tta. they slionld be; nor have they
in general the'proper , views of the object
and end, of teaching. Mere knowledge—
learning-7--is not the cheif -end of
"•educatitm. The mind is not like an
empty dish,` o be merely filled, nor like
a sponge, - mer'ely to. take in and absorb.
It is a living agent, in a measure:dormant
while untauglit,!waiting to be stimulated
to action, to be fed and trained' that it
may he develOpeil by - thinking and self
culture and "their iend out light from its
own inherentinature and strength. Mere
teaching, even - perfecting the pupils in
the common branches of. tearning, does
not cover the'dn i ty and responsibility_ ot
the teacher. IWithout moral endowment
jukllect, howeVer brilliant, like a mewr
shot from its path, often goes blazin(;?,
down to ruin; The great end of teaching
is to make - v(1(1, i moral, upright Citizens :
honest, truthful , temperate and patriotic.
Virtue is the health of theisoul as health
is the virtue ;of i the body.
Our system of common schoolais pure
ly American ;leapable of producing if
rightly, and fuliy carried out in, its. true
spirit the best and richest intellectual
fruit. It comes from the people, is sup
ported by the Ipeople, controlled by the
people, and for; the, benefit of the people.
It is • the ''Niiisery of -that intelligence
which is the life Ot liberty ; the pillar
which is to support aus to a free nation.
Let it be watalied and cared for by the
people with' Wakeful interest and vigi
lance. Let di t see to it, that neither big-.
°try, nor suPerstition,nor ignorance shall
lay the vandal hand upon it, either to
mar its beauty, destroy its influence, or
pollute the pure stream which it is in
tended to iiepd, forth.
• And now; standing near the top of our
County; having alarge part ot it beneath
our gaza, let us throw our minds back
along its history. Its.'dark forest only
here and:here dotted -by a logoabin, the ,
smoke from; which gave notice that it was
the dwelling of a self, denying family,
poor in this, world's goods, though rich in
hope of bette days, true and- strong in
faith of a restlliereafta% Cheerfully toil
ing to secure the mere necessaries of life
and carefully instructing their children.
All comm_unieation with the outer world
even with the relations they had left, dif
ficult and iino,ertaie. About 1805 a post
boy rode on horseback -from Wilkesharre
to Great Bend and return, once in two
weeks, carrYing mail matter and newspa
pers. Soon thereafter roads were opened
for ox t3le(!s,, no wheeled vehicles were
seen tor many years.
Now 711;4 and behold the change,
The forest gone and in its place smiling
fruitful fields. The' cabin has given
place to neat; and comfortable if notcost
ly dwellin4s. Roads and bridges made,
streams' harnessed to Mills and Machin
ery clattering and, hammering here and
there as needed. "Schools and Churches
establisbed----A swarming population en
joy all the necessaries and many of the
luxuries of life.
Extending our \ vision and looking over
our Union, what do we behold as chang

past life of Our country. From a mere

we are strong.; They Were few, we are
many. Their dangers were
. .fr. m with
out Ours from within. .
The Temple of .our .clinntry's' liberty,
like 'that of. Zerobbabel, was: "reared in
