One Of the .greatest drawbacks to the success df oF Common School system, is the irregular. attendance of many of the pupils. In almost every schnol 'there are children who seem to attend by fits and starts, who are in their places - to-dny, and absent to-morrow. At the end of the term they are decidedly behind their more putictual fellow, and the responsibility_i j s almost invariably put on the unfoituica teacher. Parents who permit their chil din to absent themselves from school upon the, most trivial pretext, ars alWays the mlst severely 'critical in their attitude toward teachers. They do ' not seem to remember that, their children have only been in the school room serni-occasionily, or if they remember it, they appear to esteem it as a matter , of minor importance. ,Yet it is a fact that no child who is irregular in his or ' , her Sttendance at school, • will make much progress. Parents ought to remember this truth and ; improve in this respect. Sqad your children to school every day and you will be agreeably sur prised at the result. 4 _ • , At abOut 12:30 Monday night, tlie,Eagle Hotel in this place, was. discovered to be on fire, n alarm was immediately given and the freemen were promptly on ~the ground, and hose was attached to the hy drants, and soon five' streams were being thrown onto the burning building.

At the risk of being thought impertient, we cannot help noticing• a very nice affair in the way of 7a surprise; party,, which occurred at the house of ',Andrew' Phelps, in Pleasant Valley, on tho 17th of October. We know that "surprise parties" are becoming so common that they may be ' voted a nuisance by some people, but this, we think, a good thing,'_ "too good to keep." The wife and children- of Mr. Phelpsi• had propneed a surprise for, him on his fiftieth birth-dey, and had managed the thing so quietly, that,.up to the morning of the day, he bad no idea what awaited him.. dren living away happened to come home that day.' Mr. Phelps was glad to see them —who would not be t His wife hind Ant yet told Mtn that they' happened, also, to, have a tine turkey,. with everything to match, enough for a bountiful dinner for the whole family. Before she had informed her hus band Of the state :of things, and just as she was congratulatinV, herself on, succeeding so nicely in her undertaking, s he was cha grined at seeing company drive up. True, it was a brother of her husband—"but what business had they to come to-day t" . Things y did not look any better when, soon after, there was a fresh arrival, and then another, mid another, till , finally the truth dawned upon her that what she had undertaken, the brothers and sisters ef her husband were carrying out en a lirger scale. As a mat ter of course, every man lias a birth-day some time, but in how many eases does it pass,by without a word or thought, by wife or children, and how many times dopersons seem to forget—in the honey of life—too often in their greed for money making— that they ever bad brother or sister. Not so in the present-case, and we can easily imagine that the company of twenty or thirty who sat down to dinner at that time, enjoyed it. When a man's wife and chil dren think as much of him as in this case we judge they are about right, and (except our own) we do not believe, there is a bet ter faituly in Bradford county, than thiS one. k Going back fifty years; we find it takes us to 1832, as the year of Mr. Phelp's birth, hence we guess he was named after General Jackson, then at ihEi heighth of hiS glory, and at the time of his second election to the Presidency, when "The people followed the General's feather, Like a flock of sheep ,the old bell-weather." But times changed, and when thepartp sold out to, the slave drivers, Sqnire Phelps, of Burlington, went with the bettei j part of the organisation into. the Republican party, and his sons with him. During the rebellion,' and when from 1861 to 1865 the "Democratic" party indirectly helped the South to fix up and run thiTConfederacy they wore among the staunchest supporters of the government, the family being repre sented in the ranks of the army. To con clude.—and we t think: it time—we hope we have not offended in this. If we have, I.wo beg pardon of all parties concerned and will make all the reparation in our po - wei..
