In tho turmoil of war and polities it
appears to have escaped tho attention of
the public, that religious instruction
forms part of the reiruhr cxerciso iu
many of our public schools.
Our early State Superintendents
guarded carefully against tho indroduc
tion ot anything of a sectarian character
intoViur public schools. But more recent,
ly what oursehool authorities choose to
call moral instruction has come !o be a
pat of the system under tho present im
proved management. We. accordingly
the County Superintendent of Elk have
county stating in his annual report that
toe moral instruction imparted iu the
schools ot our county, consists in reading
the Bible and making prayers. Now it
reading tho Bible is a proper exercise
itshould certainly bo explained so that
the children could understand the more
difficult passages (and I a In told that it
is done in some, of the schools) and if
explained it should he correctly done,
fir it would he very wrong to mislead
youthful minus in 5 matter of such vast
importance. To meet the requirements
of the case I would suggest that appli
cants for situations as teachers should be
carefully examined in regard to their
orthodoxy, their knowledge of scripture,
their capacity to exp'nin them, and their
ability in prayer, and that their certifi
cates set forth their qualifications in
thoso resepects for tie guidance of
sciiocl nircetoivi.
t would believe the whole thing was
wrong if this was not the age of progress
and "great moral ideas." But some,
times people progress backward, and
here we are back in this matter to the
point from which the last generation
departed on the establishment of free.
it is to be hoped that our County Super
intendent, in his next report, will call
things Ly their right, names, and if
school teachers turn their schools into
prayer meetings for the young, let him
say so, i hat people may know where we
are drifting.
Moral and religious instruction too

into the public schools, which thould
simply impart a secular education, and
nothing else. If wo must have moral
instruction in our schools, let it be en
tirely free from the suspicion of secta
rianism but even then there are many
who would prefer to instruct their chil.
dren in morals themselves, or at least to
choose their teachers. AcElt.

Mn. Eiiiroii : Your correspondent
'' N. W. Pa. in closiiiii his sketch of
the nast history of our county, casts a
look at its future, and predicts that it
will soou number 110,000 inhabitants
will export from 2,000 to 3,000 tousof
coal, and 300 to 400 tons of lumber
per day, aud so " become one of the
most interesting parts of the State."
If this estimate is correct, (aud I am
unable to show that it is not,) then there
are two or three thoughts suggested by
it which seoin to me worth the at ton
of all who lire ucw residents1 of Elk
county.
And. iu the first place, wo need not
be afraid to settle here. The country
is new and somewhat rough, it is true ;
but no where on earth do wo liud.
Paradise; and prosperity comfort and
happiness iuay be found in Elk
county as we'l as elsewhere. There- is
wealth io these hills .and forests for
somebody; why should not those now
here stay aud take their share of ii. ?
Wo might go further and fare a great
deiil worse.- The greatest difficulties
have already been overcome why go a
thousand miles west to begin a new set.
dement? If all the inhabitants of Elk
would consider themselves settled here,
they would naturally feel an interest in
developing the rosources of tho county,
and making it, in all respects a desira
ble place of residence, This feeling, if
properly carried out in action, would go
far towards realizing the predictions of
your historian.
But what dec-cut man would wish to
mako his home iu Elk county, it the
people only come here to make money,
intending to go elsewhere aud enjoy it ;
if escu cue; lives by himself and for
himself, not much regarding mau nor
fearing God ? Au intelligent commu
nity is needed iu order to mako our
little county " one of the most interest
ing patts of the State."
I say community, for though wo
have not ull things common, we have
some thiugs such as the public) roads,
the public schools, and all public iusti
tutions, whether civil or religious. In
regard to all these tilings there should
be what we may call a public tpirit
Every citizen should endeavor to do all
in his power to have- good roads, good
schools, good officers, good churches,
and good religious instruction, to have
thrilt, intelligence, morality aud piety
prevail throughout the county. And
for the iurtherance of these ends wo
waut a good caunty paper one that for
the interests of Elk county, whether
material oi spiritual shall be au cflicieut
Adiwate.
Without insinuating, Mr. Editor, that
von have been derelict in duty ; at least,
that Jou have not devoted tb tho paper
as much care and labor as you could ul
lord; you will pardon mo for saying
that I have felt somewhat disappointed
in t he Aovot ate as doubtless others have,
and vourself also siuco it came iuto
vour hands. And I say this for the
mke cf adding that it is a matter of
cvmmon interest to hive a. good county
paper; and that all the people of the
county (who are supposed to be num
btred among your readers) tdiould do
what they cm to mnko (he Advnentf as
useful an possible. Let it be a medium
of communications with each other for
all the people of tho county ; and help
to unite them in promoting not nnlv
the public interests of tho county, but
those broader interests which pertain to
the nation and to mankind.
With tho beginning of another year
may we not have a besinning o: better j
thiii'rs, both ferthe Editor and for the
readers of the Advocate? that it may
become a necessity in every family : and
conerihuto much to make "the future
of Elk county" all that tho most san
guine could desire ? ClViS.
Rkmauks. Wo are not astonished
that any person should conclude that
Elk county "ought to afford a better pa
per than the Advocate, has proved.
That is our own opinion, although we
assert utihesitatiugly that more original
matter of real merit has been contribut'
cd to its columns during the nine
months it has been under our control,
than has graced toe columns of any pa
per of the adjoiniug counties. Yet it
can be improved, and it ought, to bo im.
proved. The paper should bo enlarged.
Before we can enlarge it we must get a
new press. The purchase ofa press in
volves an expenditure which tho present
circulation and business of tho paper
does not justify. If Civis and others
will by their efforts, give
us 300 i
new subscriptions, prepaid, wo sh all in
vest the money at ouce in a new press,
and thenceforth give to tho public an
increased amount of reading matter. If
the paper is expected to be a publis
benefit, the public must support it.- Ed

Triumph of Right.
TiXE late decision of the Supremo
Couit of tho United States iu the case
of Milligau of Indiana, one of three cit
izens of that State who were condemned 1
to death by a Military Commission for
some alleged offense during the war,
and afterwards pardoned by the Presi
dentis full of hope to tho country. It
not only vindicates the liberties guaran.
teed to trie citizens by the Consti'ution,
but it eutillcs President Johnson to' the i
enduring gratitude of his countrymen I
ior ins ninety interposition to prevent
two or three more national murdrrs.
Tho Court was unanimous the whole
nineJiidges asserting in the solemn
affirmation that " The Constitution is
tho Supremo' law of tho land, in war r;s
ten! (.-, t'.-ipaiec." If this be true, then
it is very clear that the Icgiou of nets
committed by the Lincoln dynasty, un-
,v ,, ,' .,
ucr the plea ot 'mU'tari necessity, were
1 J "
Dothiiig icss than violations of the Con.
stitutiou. Among those acts were thou-
si.nds of confiscations, iiunrisonin-uis
and banishments, aud not a few murders,
. . ,',..,, i
I he imprisoned, and banished, and con
fiscatcd nay have hopes of redress
But what of the murJi'rsd ? Tluir
mangled bodies cannot be restored to
life There is no restitution for them.
What then ? Shall the violated law he
vindicated, and its vengeance visited
upon their murderers ? Tho thought
is fearful, and wo ardeutly hope that a
merciful Heaven will poiut out some
other means of mot.itiatiiiL' its c.Tended
majesty.
This decision also triumphantly vin
dicate:) tho course of the Democratic
press throughout the war. It w.:s with
a'J unanimous voice that it appealed tu
those iu authority net to go beyond the
Constitution ; and for theso appeals in
behalf of that sacred instrument nnuy
editors became tho victims til' these out
rages. Let them have restitution to
the uttermost farthing; but let the
whole country icmcinbcr that the De
mocracy were then right, as they always
have been in every trying euiergoucy.
And above all. let every good citizen
bear in mind, that tho highest Judicial
Department of tho Government-has
solemnly declared what is, and what is
not, tho law, aud that resistance to, or
disregard of, that law, is rebclliou to
tho Constitution. M.
CfjyWe need not reler back to the
history of past ages fo find instances
where legislative usurpation take3 the
place of justice. A few weeks since wo
were told in the papers that an applica
tion had been made before Judge Trur
key, for the release-'of O. V. Culver, M
C, from custody, on tho ground that he,
as u member of Congress, was entitled to
fr.ecdom from arrest. The application
was very properly refused. 15ut a few
days elapse wheu an order from tbe
Rump is givcu to the sergeant-at-arms.
of that body to produce the person of
the Honorable C. V. Culver, and that
functionary comes to Pennsylvania, in
defiance of right, justice and law, and
takes Culver to Washington, where, as
the telegraphic report informs us, he is
" cordially received among bis brother
members, they believing in his honesty
oud integrity." To say tho least of it
this is cool, even in this cold weather.
However we are not much surprised at
the. Hump for thus shielding Mr. Cul
ver, and it reminds us of tho saying
about the devil being good to his own.
But what we do want to know is, by
what right does that bo''y take a
criminal from one of our county ja:ls in
defiance of a refusal to release him by
one of our State Judges? Wc want to
know if the great Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania is not fully competent
to take care of her own criminals without
the interference of Federal legislation ?
We pause for an answer. M.
