• For The Potter Journal.
Ma.
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. [The .balanceof this note being irrelevant to the issue and
extremely personal, we decline to publish it.

Well, this is true, if the party that sup

was the real Republican party, fur that
party failed otern,a teir town for• Bart

facts are these : there were four democrats
elected by that ticket, and every democrat
worked as hard fur the ticket as they did

THE USE OF DR. HOSTETTER'S STO/11- .
ACII BITTERS for Dyspepsia, Flatulence
Heaviness of the Stomach; or any other like
affections, is second to none in America. or
abroad. 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. .
