EDITOR :- The repeal of the offied of County Superin tendent of Common Schools is now tieing agi• toted to some extent. I propose to consider briefly whether the repeal of the law would be ndvisable, and what the effect would lie sip in the Cotnmon School system. The main objects its establishing the law was to guard more ef fectualiy against the employment of incom pe• tent teachers, and to establish n better channel of communication between the State Depart ment and the various branches of the system. It is well known than previous to the passage of the law creating the office of County Super. intention, our schools were taught, must gen. entity, lip persons who were tinserably quali fied to fill the highly retponsible station of ed• orators of our youth. Indeed, many of them had not even the rudiments of a common edit. cation; consequently, instead of developing the !sewers of the youthful tided, nod cresting within it a thirst for that which would ennoble it and raise its possessor to the true position of remolding, thinking, immortal befog, they stupefied even the brightest intellects to such a degree, that no after•training could repair the evil. This lamentable state of affairs led the true friends of education to attompt fe. some meows be which to supply our sehouis with persons more capable of discharging the sacred duties pertaining to the office of teach er. The ether of County Superintendent was the result of their deliberations. That it has not answered the expectations f.f its friends, in every re!pect, no one will deny; but that it large majority of the most intelligent and zea lous friends of education out still its ardent and unwavering friends, does not admit of a doubt ; in fad, we have never seen stlything bearing any resemblance to argument, against it. The other recount suggested, as leading to the enactment of the Law, was that the depart• pent had no accurate means of aseertainieg the operations of the system. It laud to peed upon School Directors fiir statistical and other desirable information. ;Nese W,1.• •d11:11 as imperfect and euntradirtury, that it inlpoB3ibit. to Millie ift them. it is now the doty or ere!' comity 1,4,1 to collect such ittoritei i, , !5-1101.1 . sand 110 fusiii , it it to the Department form. . _ .

We bare no hesitation in saying that the loss sustain, .1 in employing pu incompetent teacher, fur a single term, would more than counterbalance the annual cost of the County Superintendency. But it is further objected, that the office has not supplied even a intijorijy of our schools with competent teachers. ; Admitting this to Le true, it by no meats follows that the Ake ehou.d be repealed, for the number of qualified teachers at the time the County Superiuten. cy was established was evidently much smaller than at the present time ; and if proper in ducements are held forth, their number wi.l continue increasing until wo shall have such ant fumy of teachers us shall be ,tit honor to Billies, reo!ic I t rpmp in the Sionsuch their profeesion, and a blessing to our country. can Ise rcleive.l iu tee minutes, in every case, A third of is that incompetent per• by using fr.. live to thirty drops of Du Yam.

No organ is free from its attacks, nor is there one which it may not destroy. The scrofulous taint is variously caused by mercurial disease, low living, dis ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth and filthy habits, the deprestiihg vices, std, above all, by the venereal infection.

Its effects commence fig deposition from the blood of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, in the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed tubercles; in the glands, swellings; and on the surface, eruptions or sores.

In April, 1856, as near as I can reinemember a small pimple made its appearance on my up per lip, which soon became enlarged and sore. I used poultices 01 sorrel, and a wash or blue vitro!, without effect. Finding the sore extend ing I called on Dr. Ely, ul Seliellsburg, who pronounced it CANCER, and prescribed a wash of sugar of lead and bread poultices. Finding these remedies of no avail. I called upon Dr. Shaffer, of Davidsville Somerset county, who also pronounced the disease Cancer and gavr me internal and external remedies—the latter consisting principally of caustic ; but all to no per pose, as the disease continued spreading to ward the nose. I next esed tt preparation of or ' scnic, in the form of salve. This fur a time checked the disease, I tat the inflatumatiou soon increased. I next called upon Dr. Statler of St. t. tatrsvilte Bedlind county, who also pronoun ced the disease to he Cancer, and applied a Salve slid to be a never-failing remedy, but it bad no effect whatever in checking the spread of the sore. In December, of the same year, the dis ease had eaten away a greater part el my upper ' lip, and had attacked the nose, when I went to Cincinnati. where I consulted. Dr. IL S. Newton of the Electic Medical College. He pronoun ccd the disease ‘.a cutaneous Cancer, gamin dueed by an inordinate use of mercury." He applied mild zinc ointment, and gave me inter nal remedies. Sly face healed up, but the in !Imputation was not thoroughly removed, In February, 18:4', he pronounced me cured, and I left for Lome. 1i; April the disease again re turned, and Sc, violent was the Dahl. that I could not rest at night. Late in May I returned to Cincinnati, and again placed myself under the charge of Dr. Newton, with whom I remained un,il September, during which time he used every known remedy, and partly succeeded in cheating the disease, but when I rot urned home there were still throe discharging ulcers upon city face. I continued using No wtou's preparations, and also medicine that 1 got from Dr. Ely, but the Caucer.continued growing un til it lard eaten off the left side of icy nose, the greater portion of mv left cheek, and had attack ea irly loft eve, fliad given rip ell hoor ()fev er helm; cured, since l)r. Ely said he could only give inner) but that a cure was impossible. In March, 1858. "bought a bottle of Seas 4 cher," but I must confess I had no faith in it. I was very weak when I commenced taking it ; but I found that I gained strength day by day. and also that the ulcers commenced drying up. I confirmed, and when the third bottle was ta ken sty face was healed as if by a miracle. I used% fourth bottle rind I have been healthier since than 1 Lure been far the last seven years.
