bridge entirely, about half way between
the two piers; and when the fire reached
this point, the Hose companies were in

Rules and Regulations
For the Government of the Huntingdon
Public Schools, Hinter Session, A. B.
1844 de 5.
In order to secure, as far at practicable,
a uniform system of Government in the
Pu_t►lic Schools, the Directors have thought
proper to draw up a set of Rules by which
both Teachers and Scholars shall be reg
ulated; and which they respectfully submit
to the attention of the parties concerned.
Duties of Teachers.
1. The Teachers shall be present in
(heir respective departments within five
minutes after the ringing of the hell.
2. They shall attend the fires in their
respective rooms daring the day, and
keep its temperature as near 60 degrees
as possible.
3. They shall carefully sweep their re
spective rooms, at least twice every week,
or employ some person to do it for them,
unless the scholars volunteer to clean the
rooms during the interval of study.
4. They shall make such classification
of the scholars as will most promote the
improvement of the scholars ; and in this
they shall be regulated entirely by the
age, capacity, and previous acquirements
of the scholars, without any reference to
the opinions of others.
5. They shall establish and maintain a
uniform system of government, by strictly
enforcing the " Rules and Regulations"
prescribed by the Directors, a copy oV
which shall be kept in each room and ofre.
quently read by the Teacher or some of
the scholars.
6. They shall carefully cultivate the
social feelings of the scholars, and teach
them to take pleasure in each others
im
provement and happiness.
7. Tney shall inculcate klove of order,
becoming external deportment.
8. The shall influence, as far as possi
ble, the out-door conduct of the scholars,
by salutary precepts and good example.
9. They shall endeavor to instil into
the minds of the youth placed under their
charge, a high sense of honor anti self-re•
spect ; a sacred regard for the truth ; and
an utter abhorrence of every lorm of false
hood and dissimulation.
10. They shall press upon the attention
of scholars, the importance of acting from
principle ; and strive diligently to con
vince them that a venue of duty is the on
ly praisworthy motive to right conduct.
11. They shall register the names of
the scholars in their respective depart
ments ; call the roll at the opening of
school, both in the morning and in the
after-noun; mark down all absentees and
treat them as the rule on that head re
quires.
Duties of Scholars.
1. The regular exercises of eath (lay
will commence precisely at 9 o'clock in
the morning, and 14 o'clock in the after.
noon, at which time all scholars shall be
in attendance.
2. Scholars shall, as soon as they enter
the schoolroom, deposit their hats, ceps,
bonnets, books, &c., in their proper places
and take their respective seats.
3. Scholars shall never without permis-
Mon, indulge in loud talking, loud laugh
ing, or any other unnecessary noise in
the school room.
4. During school hours lookinm 6 out of
the windows, scraping with the feet, play.
ing with the hands or dress, or any thing,
else, shall be strictly avoided,
5. Except when expressly allowed,
scholars shalt refrain entirely from whis•
pering, and every other kind of commu
nication.
0. Scolars shall not, during study hours,
leave seats for any cause except sickness,
or some unavoidable necessity; nor shall
they at any time change seats, or leave
school, without the Teacher's permission.
7. Scholars shall not have at school
any books except those containing their
proper lessons; they shall not tear or de
face their books at school ; nor shall they
in any manner wilfully injure the school
house or adjoining property.
8. Scohlars shall attend school regular
ly; they shall he furnished with the neces
sary books ; their clothes shall be whole or
well mended, and changed as frequently
as health and comfort may require.
9. Scholars shall be diligent at their
studies; kind and social in their manners
towards each other ; and respectful to
their Teachers.
10. Scholars shall not start to school
before the bell rings, but shall all assem
ble within fifteen minutes afterwards,
11. Scholars shall make as little delay
as possible on their way to and from
school, and shall he accountable to their
Teacher for any misconduct of which they
may be guilty on the road.
12. Throwing sticks, stones, clods,
snow-balls, or any[other missile, either at
the play ground, or on the road, is pro
hibited under severe penalty.
13. Every violation of the foregoing
Rules, shall receive such reproof or pun
ishment as the Teacher may deem neces
sary. But quareling,•fighting and swear
ing, lying, and every kind of deception ;
wilful obstinacy, and playing truant,
and all other decidedly sinful actions,
shall invariably receive severe punish
ment.
14. Scholars that persist in a course of
wrong conduct, after repeated reproofs
and punishments, shall be liable to sus
pension and expulsion ; and also those
that are habitually irregular in their atten
dance, or whose parents do not furnish
them with proper and necessary books,
15. Scholars that resist the authority
of the Teacher, and refuse to submit to
salutary discipline, shall for the first of.
fence, if reported, be suspended one
week ; and for the second offence, one,
tro, or three months, as the circumstances
of the case may require.
16. Scholars that come in after the reg
ular exercises have commenced; and also
those that absent themselves from school
during a part of a day, a whole day, or a
a succession of days, shall be punished
or reported for every offence, unless they
bring sitisfictory written reasons from
parents, for their delinquency.
itaigestions toParents & ituartiiad.
As Directors and Teachers can accom
plish but little towards the good govern
ment, and successful operation of the
Public Schools, without the aid of parer.-
tal precept and example, it is highly im•
portant that the favorable influence of
every parent should be exerted in behalf
of this great wok. By the enlightened
co-operation of parents, the decipline of
school becomes popular with children,
and of course, becomes easy. And when
this all-powerful influence is exerted in
favor of the established regulations of
the school room, the comfort and happi
ness, as well as the mental and moral
improvement of its inmates, are promoted
in an incalculable degree.
To enable those parents who have the
welfire of their children at heart, to act
intelligently in the discharge of this im
portant duty, the Directors have written
out and published, for their information,
a general outline of the " Rules," by
which the schools are to be regulated; a
copy of them is sent to the head of every
family, and all are respectfully arid ear
nestly requested to aid the Directors and
Teachers, in carrying them into success
ful operation.
1. By approving and recommending
them to their childrn, and by impressing
upon their minds the necessity and im
portance of their strict observance
2. By sending their children to school
regularly and in due time every day;—
nothing but unavoidable necessity should
induce a parent to keep his child at home
a single hour.
5. By promptly furnishing the neces
sary books, &c., for the children, and hay
loot scrupulous regard to the cleanli•
ne.s of their persons and apparel.
4. By visiting the schools. The fre
quent presence of parents in the school
room, has a most happy influence on the
children. The Directors will visit all the
schools once a week, and it is hoped that
parents generally, will give some atten
tion to this duty.
5. While the practice of visiting is re
commended to all, it is most earnestly
requested, that il there be any who dis
approve the mode of discipline or in
structions pursued in our schools, they
will not mature their unfavorable opin
ions until they have previously examined,
in the schoolrooms, the points of objec.
Lions.
6. When cases of dissatisfaction arise
between parents and Teachers, they
should be carefully concealed from the
children. 14.:ven in cases of maltreatment,
parents should not sympathise with the
sufferers, unless it has been previously
determined to take them from school.--
For as soon as a Teacher's conduct is cen
sured in the presence of his scholars, by
any one in whom they have confidence,
his authority river them is unpaired, if not
wholly destroyed; and of course they'can
profit but little by his instructions after
wards. Slight causes of dissatisfaction
should therefore be passed over in silence;
and every serious and important case
should be immediately laid before the
Directors, who have both the will and the
power to investigate the conduct of their
Teachers, and either
,correct the errors
into which they fall, or prevent their
repetition.
Nara.--fn presenting the foregoing
suggestions" to the consideration it pa
rents, the Directors do not suppose that .
they are offering any thing new or un
known to those whom they address. We
do not presume to instruct the parents of
this district in their duties. Our object is
merely to recommend the exercise of that
knowledge which they already possess;
arid we trust that the good sense of com
munity will prevent the utter loss of our
labor.

N. B. In order to establish a more uni
form system, the following class books
have been adopted by the Directors, to be
used in the Public Schools, which they
have procured, and are ready to furnish to
scholars at cost, viz:—Cobb's Speller,
Reader Nos. I, 2 & S, Cobb's New Se

Prom the New York True Sun,
The Importation of Criminals.
Seine facts of a very unpleasant and
startling character have recently come to
light, which require notice at the hands of
the American journalists. When the
United States opened their arms to the
oppressed of other nations, it certainly
was not intended that this country was
to become the convenient retreat of for.
eign criminals. And now when the prin
ciple of extradition is becoming a settled
policy on the part of the Christian powers
of the old and new world, and is introdu
ced into nearly all the late treaties which
we have made with them, it can not be for
a moment endured, that the practises
which are prevailing in some ►arts of
Europe, to send their criminals into this
country, are to be continued with our
consent.
A circular issued by our State Depart
ment to our Consuls abroad, has led to
these strange developments. Mr: List,
an American Consul in Germany, in re
ply to this circular, writing home says ,
have learned things which will re
quire energetic measures on the part of
the United States, to be counteracted.
Not only paupers but criminals ate trans.
Forted Iron• the interior of this country,
in order to embark for the United States.
A Mr. De Stein, formerly an officer in
the service of the Duke of Saxe Gotha,
has lately made propositions to the
small
er States of Germany, for transporting
their criminals to the port of Bremen, and
embarking them for the United States at
seventy five dollars per head ; which of
fer bas been accepted by several of them.
The first transport of criminals, who for
the greater part have been transported for
life (among them, two notorious robbers,
Picifer and Albricht,) will soon leave
Gotha, and it is intended by and by, to
empty all the Workhouses and jails of
that country in this manner. There is
little doubt but that several other states
will imitate this nefarious practice. In
order to stop It, I have sent an article to
the Augsburg Gazette, to show that this
was contrary to the laws of nations, and
that, it is Shameful conduct towards the
country which offers the best inducements
to German manufactures."
Mr. List akn states, that contributions
are' now regularly made in the principal
towns and boroughs of Germany, to aid
in the transportation of their paupers to
the United States.
If there could be any doubt of the facts
here set lorth by an officer of this govern
ment and officially communicated, It
would be obviated by the addilinnal tes
timony of the Mayor of Baltimore, who
has written to the President on the sub-
ject, and asserts that fourteen convicts
from Bremen had arrived in the former
place, whose irons were only knocked of',
when the vessel in which they were pas
sengers, arrived at Fort Mclienry4
From the Baltimore Clipper, Dec. 9.
THE UNITED STATES AND MEX-
The correspondence between our Min
ister and the Mexican Secretary of State,
has been of so excited a character, that
the former has suspended all official re
lations with the Mexican Government.—
This controversy was invited on our part,
no doubt with the view of favoring the
project of annexing Texas to the United
States—and what will be the result it is
difficult to foresee; brat we stall not be
surprised to find the independence of
Texas finally recognized by Mexico, un
der the guarantee of England or France,
or both, that Texhs shall continue an in
dependent power. We think it nut at all
improbable, that the annexation of Texas
will cost us a war with Mexico, if not
with some European power--for it is not
likely that the independence of Texas
will be recognized by Mexico unless up
on the condition that else shall not be an
nexed to this country. We do not be
lieve that decided steps will be taken on
the subject during the present session of
Congress—nor do we think that a resolu
tion for immediate annexation can be pas
sed if introduced. The matter will have
to be managed with skill and judgment to
preserve peace—and we confess that we
would rather have it entrusted to the care
of the president elect, than to the man
agement of the present incumbent. It
would be the safest and most judicious
course„ to let the whole subject lie over
for future deliberation and action.
From the report of the Postmaster
General, we learn that the income of the
department for the year ending June SO,
1844, was as follows i
Letter postage $3,676 161 53
Newspaper postage ' 549,743 83
Fines 133 00
Miscellaneous 11;245 47
$4,237,285 83
The expenditures during the year were
$4,296,867 70. There has been no ma
terial logs from defaulters. Mr. Wick
liffe recommends a reduction of letter
postage.
Wet root.
Some writer remarks, that "we often see people
trampling about in the mud, with leather soaked
through, and how often do such people, when they
return home, sit down by the fire-side and permit
their feet to dry, without either changing their
stockings or shoes. Can we then wonder at the
coughing and barking, and rheumatism and inflam
mation, which enable the doctors to ride in their
carriages'! Wet feet moat commonly produce
affections of the throat and lungs; and when such
diseases have taken place 'the house is on fire,'
danger is not far off; therefore let us entreat our
readers, no matter how healthy, to guard against
wet feet."
A DREADFUL Tait, sur.—The Cincinnati Times
of the 25th ult., says We have conversed with a
gentleman of this city, just from Greeneville, Dark
county, Ohio, who inform. us that on Tuesday
week, a Mrs. Stephens, the second wife of a farmer,
in the vicinity of Greenville, murdered her hus
band, his son, and dreadfully mangled his daugh
ter, after which she fled and hung herself. The
domestic discord arose from the settlement of the
estate of the woman's first husband, a dispute grow
ing out of the disposition of the proceeds. The
boy was twelve years of age, and the girl fourteen."
