Jenks was an over nxions democrat, and thought he would : ire the hybrid ticket a boost—hence his eumval.

CIIASE.—Dear Most of: yenir readers, proliably now know the 'reg.; ulations of our cell] mon school syStetu pro vided fur the, frantic„ of graded certifi cates to those - wishing- to teach. The Superintendmit's 'estimate of -the-qual ificatious of the. candidate . .lS marked n j by figures on • the certificate: . No. 1 is j very good ; No; 2, good ; Nu. 3, middling; No. 4, poor; No. 5, very pour. • Now, when this grading is .understood, and prop- I er attention paid to it before' hiring a teacher, Directors, are furnished "wit h a safe-guard against poorly qualified teach ers (if the examiner be a competent man.) The fact that an applipaut for a situation, j as teacher, has a regular certificate (row l the County Superintendent is not of itselfi sufficient givutids for employing him. Ford instance, the certificate may be Marked I No. 4 in nearly all the seven or eight! branches mentioned iu N. .t3y this mark.: ing; the Superintendent virtually says, . "This person is poor in all the ' branches taught in common schools, and is poorly ; qualified to impart to others wtrat he may know. I therefore advisesSchoul Officers not to employ him." I say then, the cer tificate itself may be the very opposite of al recommendation. Now; Directors ar e ! sometimes inadvertently led into errorby a misunderstanding, or by ignorance on! this point. To guard against this and toj remove the individual responsibility ofd making refusals iu cases where poor cer-1 tificates are offered. The Ulysses - Boai d I of Directors passed a resolution in Feb., 1859, that " No teacher shall be hired in our schools fur the ensuing• year, whose certificate dueS nut average as good as No. 3." Whether our friends, the teachers in the county, or others, think this agood move or not, it has unquestionably operat ed well with us, and our schools show it.i The same Board of Directors (not all fuel same men) at their meeting on - the 18th inst., (all-.being present) passed a resolu tion raising the required standard to No. 2i. I may luxe say, the present Direc tors are Ceti S. Olmsted, C.ll. Armstrong, Perry Brigham, Isaac Byam, Young and Duick Whipple,. Jr.,—all working men. We leave this action open to criticism, courting inquiry as to the progressive condition of our schools. propuse to write several short articles —if acceptable—bearing upon the Coun ty Superintendency, nay of teachers, &c. —all of which shall be in good feeling, and open to„fair criticism and courteous reply from any person. Yours truly, L. BIRD Brook.land, Pa., Feb. 20, 186'J. Mr. Editor—l did not intend that my name should again appear in the columns of your very respectable paper, in the matter of the debating club; but in con s'deration of the demand made by " 8.," I feel myself iu duty bound to males few statements in reference to the position taken by me in the article signed " N.," found in th JourtNAL of Feb. 9. I feel to regret very much that the zeal of " B. has risen to such to such a Ditch that. I am warned of the civil code. He de mands a public retraction from me. This 1 can not make—what I then said, I now say is true, to the best of my knowledge; and not one word or syllable can I re=' tract. Yours, respectfully, Mason NELsoN Lymans.ville, Feb. 17, 1860. • To TIIE Pcamc.—With the high regard that I,have for Messrs. Bird and Nelson, 1 must say that I was a member of t!.e debate: in contro versy, and. to the best of my knowledge, there was no such argument produced as )Ir. Bird claims in his article in the Joust:at. of Feb. • N../ Illus. Tlie undersigned, having been present at the debate above.atentioned, would re,speet fully state that they fully endorse the above statements of Messrs. Nelson and Mills. (Signed,) ALMERON NIMSON, OSTIUNDER. Mn. Eravon—l am sorry to sec so. much ill feelling exhibited by Mr.. H. L. Bird, in re gard to a recent debate in Lymansville on slavery. I happened to heat member of that debate; I am a Republican, and was chosen on the negative side; and I must say, out of justice to the judges And members of the de bate, that the affirmative failed to point out the immoralities and vices practiced in the slave State's, separately and distinctly; as they should have dime, as that was highly necessa ry in debating this question.

'For the Potter Journal Friend Chase An article in the Jouit. NAL, by ^Q C ," thinks the Republican Iparty not, materially injured by our town !election . , but doing better than last fall. Well, this is true, if the party that sup ported_ Wm. F. Burt for Sheriff last fall was the real Republican party, fur that party failed otern,a teir town for• Bart y2l majeriy agast him. In Dor towa election the same party have elected their ticket by 35 majority. So you see, if this is the Iteputlican.party as .‘ Q. 0, would have it; they are on the gain. But the facts are these : there were four democrats elected by that ticket, and every democrat worked as hard fur the ticket as they did to elect - Burt, and claim it as their victory.

To be able to state confidently that, the " Bitters " are a certain cure for dyspepsia and like diseases, is to the:proprietors a source of unalloyed pleasure. It removes all morbid matter - from the stomach, purifies the blood, imports renewed vitality to the nervous sys- . tofu, giving it that tone and energy so indis_r, peusable for the restoration of health. The atimerousacknowledgments-of its superior ex cellence and beneficent, results, have assured the proprietors that it cannot but prove a great cure to the afflicted, and - impart vitality to the thorough system. .
