ADDRESS OF FROF. ALLEN.
.We present to you to-day the harvesi ,
of another year. The ripened sheaves
we bring are the perfected fruits of our
labors. The three years course of study
set apart by the laws of the State, is to
day completed. Faithfully and nobly
have this little band struggled to reach
this goal.
This is the fourth class t bfgraduates
presented by this institution. The
whole number graduated is eighty-four,
making au average of twenty-one for
each year.
From those who have graduated here,
there come bask to us tidings of good
deeds and substantial evidences of sue- .
cessful labors. Not one, so far as we
can learn, has done aught that has in
i
the leastimpaired the gOod nania they
enjoyed while here. They stand out
npou the •world's stage of active life,
living, walking ornaments of this in
stitution. Many ,of them are fw ith us
to-day. -Would there were more. But
the field in which they let* is too
broad, and the tulles that separate them
from us too many 6o rend .r this prac
ticable.
To you, whose sehoolday scenes close
with these odercises, let me address a
few words. This commencement day
to you is the commencements of a new
life. The future is most wisely hidden
from you. "Us well that it 114 so. Few
would have the heart to launch his boat
upon the trackless ocean, did he know
the dangers and toils lie must enconn
ter. You go forth to-day under 'sealed
orders ou the vast ocean of life. 'What
fearful destinies await you. How many
seals to be hroken—how many changes
in your course will be made as seal af
ter seal is broken. • And alas! your des
tiny is unknown until the last seal is
broken. And is it so, that man is con
stantly voyaging, not knowing his
destined end or way ? Most truly it is
SO. Think you that WASHINGTON,
when lie was making lii journey / Liao'
the wilderness or this State to the
French outposts, or LINcobN, when
guiding a flatboat ducwii the Mississ
ippi, or Andrew JOHNSON, when sit - -
ting cross-legged upon his tailor's table,
or GRANT, while grinding hark in the
tannery, for one Ought moment gave
place to the thought of ever being Pres
ident of they United States':
Of course they did not. Ni one
knows, nor need we care, what is before
us. " Sufficient unto the day," is the
true motto.
Do not fear to grapple with the world
and its issues as they meet you. Accept
anti do with cheerfulness that which
yot cannot change. Your ambition
wl-lead you to look for more immedi
ate results than you cap obtain. Aim
at independence. Trust in your own
unaided powers. (to not out upon
leading strings.* Cutseyourself loose
from home and home surroundings that
you may make a mark in lice' world.—
He who is content to sit do wit where he
,was horn, shatiii,g Itiinseif ender the
old family tree, V:v ilig,w here Ids father
lived and dying s'ltere be died, will not
be likely to succeed, or do little elsethan
live to eat, and eta to live. The world's
work receives his help from him. " Rus
ted out," will constitute his ilpitaph.
Push on, and keep moving is the cry
that comes from the incoming genera
tion. Men are not often estimated at
their true-value in the place of their
nativity. Why, even hemlock boards,
are doubled in value when taken from
their native Soil. Do not wait tor some
thing to do. Do something N. - r iffle you
are waitin,, ,, , if it,,is nothing more than
grubbing stumps and knitting tatting
1 the least of employments). A gentle
man once said to Horace Greeley that
the world needed ditching more than
preaching. To which the sage pbiloso
pher of the Tribune replied-t 1 not less
preaching indeed, but moth of that
sort of preaching that will set men to
ditching. Hundreds of _young men to
day are anxiously waiting anti looking
for clerkships, or some office position.
How often are we asked to lend our
names to make the list of petitioners
longer on somebody's paper, who is
begging for some paltry Dine,which if
obtained would hardly pay he cost of
t
getting, and would afford a scanty sub
"sistance at best. I pray you Ibeware of
office and office-seekers. "ilf you are
fitted for the place and are honest, the
office will seek you. So spend no sleep
less nights in planning or days of toil
in presenting your claiins., Suppose
others do, by their persistent 'dragoon
ing obtain the post, verily thay have
their reward. When I see a man in the
prime of life, spending 'his days in a
seven by nine, grocery with a few hun
dred dollars capital invested in a dry
good store, adding nothing to his stock,
and increasing his business, I feel to
pity him. I want to say to hint, you
have mistaken your calling. When I
see men in their various
,professions of
life, living from year to year without
growth, or increase of power as well
as increase in business, I feel like say
ing to them, " my dear sirs, in the
making you what you arc, materials for
first-class blacksmiths, carpenters, shoe
makers or farmers were spoiled."
There IS a pitting place for-each and
all. -If we only learn to labor and to
wait, We shall find our places. The
sure way to obtain that which we \rant
lies in doing well what we can. Wait
not for Position, ,tor grieve that 3 - ott are
not appreciated. This IS 110 t, 80 ungrate
ful a world as some would make it. I
am inclined to the opinion that the
masses of people are prized and' appre s
ciated at their full value. Any seeming
exception to this rule will be found up
on examination to show " no cause for
action." If, upon being driven upon
the scales of public opinion you are
found to weigh less than sixteen ounces
avordupois to the pound, resolve to int
crease this weight until the scale beams
shallquickly go down in your favor.—
Accept the fact and take courage that
yeti know it,—for known' defects are
easily remedied.
• But to you who ,have 4) often heard
me, upon these points, T can say little
that is new.
You are now to leave ifs. Yob are to
forge out for yourselves characters on
the anvil of industry, by well directed
blows of head, bear!, and hand. We
shall watch with no ordinary interest
your goings forth—and ; every note of
tidings received from you will be glad
ly welcomed. You are a part of us.—
Our tears, our hopes and our prayers
are for you.
But I must no longer detain you - on
this. threshold of your new life. The
most of you have chosen for your pro
fession the occupation of teaching,A
most noble choice. Consecrate
i.your
selves to the work. No higher calling
exists. Strive to be wo g thyyour call

OF ALLEGUENT COUNTY
We are obliged to Prof. Verrill, Acting
Principal of the State Normal School at
Mansfield, for a catalogue fin; 1868-0.
A brief c,f its contents will. be published
next wedc.
The Bradford Reporter comes to us
with new and beautiful type, significant
of merited prosperity. A neater, or
more carefully conducted paper does
not reach our table. Go on prospering
and to prosper.
On •the first page will be found the
concluOon of the history of the'famous
Fugitive Slave Case which attracted so
much attention hereabout many years
ago. We scarcely need to say that the
first part of the history, published near
ly it year ago, was from the same pen.--
Such histories, written by eyewitnesses,
are of great value and read with in
terest.
Four days prior to the Convention
Mr. Jack }liestaud• solemnly affirmed
that the opposition to Cleary was greater
than was apparent. It proved ' 4 to be
just nine votes in 1331 If that was
greater than•the "apparent" opposition,
what, good sir, must the " apparent "
have been ? It was " the Ring against
the people," and the people won.
We - see by the Atchison 1 rec PBB,
that our friend Frank Root has ret i ed
from - that paper and accepted the roulte
agency on the Central Road. We con
gratulate him on his escape from indoors
and tntigt he may find it profitable as
well for health as for increase. Col.
Martin now owns the paper.
The State Republican Convention
which assembled iii Philadelphia Wed
nesday of last week, renominated Gen..
Geary for Governor. The vote stood
on first'ballot, 122 for Geary to nine foi•
all others. Every district was represen=
ted. The enthusiasm was very great, anti
when Geary appeared to acknowledge
the honor conferred, became incontroll- .
able. No Governor ever received a more
nearly unanimous support for renom
ination,
Thanks, gentlemen delegates. And
still, like the delegates to the Chicago
Convention last year, you only met
and informally ratified the choice indi
cated by the Republican masses. There
is a widespread belief, nor is it a mis
taken one, that jlen. John W. Cleary is
I I
a truehearted, h hest man. He is chief
of no " ring." I le will not steal, nor
will he suffer tilers to deplete the
treasury. He is fully in sympathy with
good order, is neither a pet ofi Railway
cprporations, nor does he swelter under
a load of obligations to cliques and
rings. Here is an 'honorable man; a
brave soldier ; an upright ruler. And
these are his bitter opponents; treasury
thieves, traitors, plunder rings, and
such ringleaders. We shall vote for
Geary.
THE I *EW FABLE
It is said that all things which per
ish and pass away, in good time (vhich
is God's time) reappear in new forms of
use, or beauty.
4sop, who is sometimes named the
father of fable—that being a soft way
of calling a man the • father-eIC-Aies—
passed from this sublunary sphere rges,
ago. His fables, in which he
,by indi
rection taught man to shun Vice and
eschew folly, were simple indictments,
leveled'at the small vices and 'minor
meannesses of mankind. Upon those
indictments men have been convicted
hourly, from the first; but We do not
hear that many have suffered conver-I
sion thereby. In fact, human incon
sistency propagates by divisin. Men
read fables illustrating sonic phase of
human meanness, and laugh heartily;
then, at once set about doing the very
meannes:ies they despised a moment
before.
So, every day, some of one iEsop's fa
tiles is reproduced on the stage of II fe, and
not inObrently. Men are only diffi
dent when they essay something call
ing into play the higher and nobler fac
ulties. .
dotis not require much talent
to reproduce meanness in all its phases.
Almost, anybody can do it and do it
well.
But none succeed better in this
thing than politicians. They'are of the
facile class whiCh can turn a band to
anything. Take the Democratic lead
em ; the negro is their bete noir—bug
bear. The negro violates the proprie
ties, and they straitivay paint his
offence as black as his Skin. He com
mits a crime, and they invest it with the
gloom of midnight. Theft, murder,
arson, rape—all these terrible breaches
of law, beconie Unspeakable crimes if
perpetrated by the colored man. Some
thing of the spirit of this indiscrimina
tion may be seen in the cases of crime
perpetrated by poor and rich. The rich
R villain swindles a hundred widows and
orphans out of their little trust funds
and escapes human punishment. The
poor devil of a thief steals a dollar, and
goes to the penitentiary. In our judg
ment a rich colored man might steal.
with greater impunity than a poor
white man ; but it is no less certain
that of two equally vicious, one white
and poor and the other black and poor,
the black one must not expect such
clemency as is granted to his white co
adjutor 'and equal.
Sonde months ago the Democratic
press of the country worked itself into
a fever of wrath against a scoundrelly
negro who outraged three wlAe women
in Franklin County, in this State. The
ease was as bad as it could be, and in
our opinion should have resulted in the
instant death ',of the i►erpetrator when
caught. HoNv,ever, the Democratie. pa
pers caught at it as another evidence
that the negro is a brute and not a twin.
From one end of the country to the
other the Franklin county outrage was
bandied, nd flung into thu faces of
Repubilans, as a political bone to be
picked and fought over. Not the hor
ble crime, good people, but the " nig
ger" constituted the burden of the cry
=of the Democratic press. As for us, the
color of the man never occurred to - us;
we only wondered where the friends of
the outraged women were that the per
petrator• still lived and breathed the
same atmosphere. The crime, be it
noted, did not terrify these fastidious
conservators of Public order and mor
als. Rather, it' was the color of the
driminal which tilled their souls with
horror.
Well. Had it been true that white
men never invited sudden death In the
same manlier, all this would have been
well enough. But, unfortunately, bru
tality pertains to no hue of the cuticle,
just as common sense by no means con
stitutes a special attribute of newspa
per politiciani. It does not now ap
pear for the firit time that white men
forfeit their lives as that negro forfeited
his. Not ten days ago, as we learn from"
the Harrisburg papers, seven white
skinned ruffians, whose family connec
tions are so respectable that the papers
forbear publishing the ruffians' names,
in the Capital Grounds, Harrisburg,
seized a respectable colored woman and
outraged her person. In the exact and
expressive language of tile Patriot and
Union, the Democratic paper, " They
are all white men, while the victim of
their licentiousness is a black 'woman."
Ah ! indeed! shall we pause now to
argue the status of the noble Caucas
sians who perpetrated'this horrible out
rage ? Shall w 6 drtiw from this crime
an argument totow that white scoun
drels who abuse 'I that colored woman
are not fit to vote the Democratic tick
et? •Shali we close our eyes to the fact
that the weakness of woman and the
majesty of law have been grossly out
raged by seven bruteS, and -only re
member that one party was-black and
the other white?
Never! before the law there can be
neither black nor white. A man is a
man, without reference to-color or birth,
and so is woman, woman. A brute is a
brute, whether white or black ; and
crime is crime, whether the perpetrator
be white or black, 'hell or poor, bond or
free. The Franklin county black ruf
fian and the Harrisburg white ruffians
occupy a- hideous equality. There is
no excuse or palliation for either. Such
cases should, never reach the courts.—
They constitute offences too gross for
the tardy operation of law. Mark, now ;
the black brute will get justice; the
seven white brutes will escape. Is that
justice? Will any , clamorer for the
precedence of the noble Caucasian
attempt to maintain that the quality of
crime is affecle4 or modified, in any
wise, by the color of the parties?
We plead for no race of men or wom
en. Rather, our plea is for, justice to
all.. Even for the mole-eyed editors
who would subvert all things to party
uses, we demand justice., The land is
full of violence. To all appearances the
forces of evil are now peculiarly active.
Vital Christianity, though greater in
the aggregate than at any other time
before, is weaker to resist to-day than
ever before, because it hesitates to make
use of all the appliances of power
which God has placed at its disposal.
The Church, as an organization,
" lumbers behind the car of reform lik:
the baggage train of an army." °ugh
this to be? " Can these things be an'
not excite our special wonder ?" "II
Baal be God, serve him." If not, not!

Here is something for the lawyers : A
negro boy in the employ of David Car
skaddon, of Lock Haven, was recently
shot by Mr. C. A young girl, also an
employee in the house, aroused the
family one morning at bi o'clock, say
ing that the negro boy bad entered her
room and attempted to take- liberties
with her. Mr. Carskaddon took a pis
tol and hunted up the boy, who was,
found in the kitchen kindling the fire,
•nd at once, with a valor almost equal
• that of Dr. Lichtenthaler's (who re
• ently killed a lady on Main-st., of that
uiet village), shot -the boy several
inns. The question now seems to be
hether the valorous Carskaddon was
..uilty of crime in shooting the play.
e confess that we 'don't know. i If
Harskaddon knew of the guilt of the
oy he had great provocation. But
' t here appears to be a question about the
uilt of the boy, and the lawyers must
ut their heads together and settle it.
