Anmttu. 4, for less time than three months will be charged Tne Proof Reader. There Is one person in a newspaper office who, though very important, is bound, so far as the public is concerned, to pass his day in obscurity, to "blush unseen' withni a small cage where he has seldom room to either sit or stand ia comfort. This is tho proofreader. Every one knows the editor, to his cost he is bladgered, in one way and another, from morning until night nd the public hold him responsible for everything except "printers' errors," and then the printers are abused.

The very existence of the proof reader as an officer of the staff is unknown to many people. Question these, and you would find that they believe in no one intervenes between the printers and tbepubhe. save the writer 5 and pretty newspapers, books and anything else wo would have, if this were the case. In the office, however, the proofreader is a valued, though, perhaps, unappreciated, person. He is the nnseen wire puller who prevents many a disastrous error, who prevents many a grievous mistake, not properly la his pro.

No one will take tho blame while the proof reader is by to receive it, though in most newspaper offices he is obliged to do everything at a rate which makes it a marvel that lie turns out such good work as generally comes from his tiny den.

The court overrules this objection, and admits the testimony, sealing a bill of exceptions for defendants, which is the subject of the first specification of error.

In the first place, it has precedence over any foreign publication, becauso the persons and places, institutions, resourses, and history of this country ara treated an fully as as any other countries. Tho French Revolution brought into prominence hundreds. of nnmcs which will bo found in every cyclopedia, pretending to nny degrpo of excellence, but the names of the prominent men, and events of the late war of this country, can bo found irl no one but the one now being published by Appleton. The some is true to tho thousand and one matters of note iu this country the different States, their population mineral and agricultural resourses, manufactories, mines their prominent towns and cities the persons Who havo made a name in tho politics of this country, in science, art, literature all have, in this word, a record. Besides, as this work is the latest, it contains much matter of importance which it has been impossible to place in any other cyclopsedia, No decade of years has been more prolific of important events and discoveries in every department of knowledge than tho lust.

A mere summary glance at the first volume shows this. Abyssinia, almost a terra incognita, has been brought into public notice by the war with Tho articles of Africa contain the latest information gathered by Livingston and his coadjutors. Alsace has been the scene of a terrible war, and from a vu'" tow-mf new in sc no more particulars; not only Blnce the cr clopx'anr was published, but even since "ie ai written for the present ono was in type and ready for the press, so much so as lo require a thorough revision of tho at tide.

id so in hundreds of subjects great changes have been made, aud they all find a record in his work. Typographically, the work is perfect printed in cleor, new type, on fiist-rate paper. It is full of engravings, well printed, which are designed to give greater lucidity and force to the explanation of tho text. We notice in tho article on bridges, engravings ofthe btidgca over the Ohio at Cincinnati, the Susquehanna at Havre do Grace, tho Mississippi at St Louis and the East river at New York, showing tho different methods of construction more clearly in one -instant than could be done by pages of explanations.

Editor. As we do not, while perusing your columns, see anything from Wright Township, thinking if it would be acceptable we would state a few facts for publication We are aware that we are a little out of the city, but not so far as to not be known. The distance is only about five miles, or twelve to the farthest edge of the trip following the Hazleton turnpike direct from Wilkes-Barrs, which passes through nearly the centre of the town. Many of the people here go. to Wilkes- over There are two schools now in operatiou in the town, taught by Messrs.

Lastwood and Wage. The former is much esteemed by our citizens as a teacher, having taught nearly four terms of five months each in the town, we think we can speak thus highly of him without flattery. The latter is lately from Bradford Co. and is a successful teacher by reputation. We regard the loss of our friend and neighbor Mr.

C. Zehnder, known as "the lrrge engineer of Fairview' He was everywhere hailed with respect. In a word we have lost a good neighbor and a much esteemed citizen. As for the "pheasant snairer" who ivas lately taken to the "steady boarding houpe" in your city we can say but little; howejver we look for. him back soon to pursue a niore honorable employment.
