A. Jones, of this place, ha gone to Leechville, N. to take charge of a store and other business interests of a i gentleman from Centre county, this State, by whom he has been employed. Mr. J.

is a first class clerk and a most worthy gentleman socially, and his many friends lieie unite in wishing him abundance of good luck iu the old Tar Tree State. So rr.ote it be. We were glad to welcome once moro to our sanctum our young friend Ceo. A. Kerry, at one time a practising attorney in this place, but now a resident of Grand Itapid, who is at present on a visit to his many friends here.

He looks well, feels well, and is well, nhvsicallr. but that he will be better by half in another particular before he leaves us we would not be at all surprised to hear, although of course wo don't know anything about it ourself personally. I Some nnhung scoundrels not only stole about a hundred bushels of corn from the barn of a man named Ilelsel, in Allegheny township, on the night before Christ- mas, but alpo cut the mouth of a valuable horse in a brutal manner and then, it is supposed, administered arsenic to the an-, imal, from the effects of which it died soon 1 after. Such hellish diabolism would dis- crace the inmates of Pandemonium itself, We hope the villians may be captured and I punished to the full extent, of the law. The Johnstown District Court, which i is in session this week, has for the most part been occupied in the trial of simple assault and battery cases, tho only excep- lions thus far that we have noticed being the conviction of Wm.

H. Gore for sednc-I tion and fornication and bastardy, Miss Amelia Rinebolt prosecutrix, and the trial I of John Gore and Henry Updegrave for the larceny of four bottles of wine from the saloon of John D. Baikley, the verdict in which case we have not yet learned. Eli-sha Dixon, charged with had not at latest accounts been put on his trial. On Saturday night last some miscreant placed several pieces of metal and a number of cross-ties on the Pennsylvania railroad, between Crcsson and Gallitzin, with the evident design of throwing the Fast Line east from the track.

Fortunately the obstuction was placed in a straight line of track, and was observed by the engineer in time to check the train, when it was soon removed. No punishment could be too severe for fiends who would thus endanger the lives of many persons to glut a feeling of rcnge fr some fancied injury from thc-couipany or an employe. Through the courtesy of Itev. J. W.

Ed ie, we were favored on Wednesday last with the first peep at a beautiful silver "Communion Set," five pieces in all, which has just boen presented to the Presbyterian church in this place by that prince of clever gentiemen, George W. Mullin, of the St. Cloud Hotel, Philadelphia, and Mountain House, Crcsson. We never saw anything more chaste or elegant, and wo are sure that nothing more appropriate for the purpose could have been selected. The generous donor is certainly deserving and no doubt will receive the hearty thanks of the congregation he has so handsomely remembered.

The neatest thing by far in its way that we have yet seen is the beautiful iron fence which encloses the burial lot owned by Wm. Kittell, in the Catholic cemetery in this place. This fence was erected by Messr. J. II.

A. Shoemaker, of tho Ebensbnrg Foundry, who have the exclusive light iu this county, as well as in Somerset, Westmoreland Allegheny counties, to manufacture it, having purchased saki rights from Mr. Gearhart. the patentee. We can conceive of nothing uioro desirable for enclosing porticos, front yards, cemetery lots, and those who contemnlate improvements of that kind should not fail to examine this elegant and substantial rustic fence, i Whether the information was vouch-j safed by a spiritual medium or the no less chimerical revelationsof a dream, orwheth-' er based on what was believed to be reliable information, wc are not prepared to say, but certain it is that two of our citizens became impressed not long since with tho idea that at a certain spot in North Caroline a box full of gold coin could bo had for the digging.

Acting, therefore, on that belief, they visited the place, employed a few negroes to make the necessary excavation, kept their courage up to the sticking point for a. day and a half, and then sorrowfully concluded that there either never had been any gold buried there or else that some more cunning men had occupied the field before them. So no gold and fewer greenbacks Is the sum total of tho expedition. The purviving members of Co. who served in the Mexican war, or at least a portion of them, held a reunion at the Hlair House, in this place, on Friday evening last.

The meeting was presided over by Capt. James Murray, with Messrs. Daniel (). Evans and Evan D. Evans as Vice Piesidents and Messrs.

J. D. Parrish and Wm. Mills as Secretaries. Brief addresses were delivered by tho President of the meeting and by Maj.

It. J. Crozier, of Aitoona, after which the latter gentleman and John A. Blair, of this place, were chosen delegates to represent Co. in the grand reunion of Mexican soldiers to bo held in Washington City on Thursday of next week.

In the evening the entire party sat down to an elegant supper prepared by that most accomplished of landladies, Mrs. Blair, and it is needless to say that they did ample justice to tho bountiful feast. Not the least noteworthy incident of the reunion was the fact that it was hold on the twen ty-seventh anniversary of the departure from this place of Co.

I THE COMMON SCHOOL SYSTEM. SKCONIAl'KR. To the Editor of the Cambria Frcemon Dear Sir In my last communication I spoke of the difference between true education and the instruction which the Common School system intended to impart. Allow me to enlarge somewhat on this jxunt in order that the whole issue between us ami its upholders may be brought into clearer light. Tim end of education is to drvw out the various faculties of the human mind, moral as well as intellectual, so as to render tliem subservient to the purpose for which they have been implanted by the Creator.

This purpose is to advance God's glory aDd promote the greater good and happiness of His creatures. The mere acquisition of knowledge" is, then, but a secondary matter a means to the chief end. If then you exclude religion from instruction you deprive the latter of that which is its ''principal, its sole object you make it meaningless, aimless, characterless. We hold that the end of all education must be to make us good Christians, and being sure that good Christians will be good citizens, the well being of our nation will thus tie best secured. To teach children that it is wrong to steal, that idleness leads to crime and crime to the gallows, that intemperance is mischievous in its effects upon health, character and domestic comfort, is all very well, but this does not reach the root of the evil.

Down deeper beneath the surface is th evil that ia to be touched and cured, and such feeble efforts cannot iro beneath th surface. Moralitr does not consist merely in telling what is evil, aud in showing its evil consequences; religion is not merely a barrier thrown around the soul to keep it from evil doing. A man will not lie a good citizen merely lie-cause lie does not lie, or steal, or drink to excess; much less will he be a good Christian. Mere external decency, and this ii all that ths above instruction can secure, and even this but rnrely, is not morality, is not religion. To have good men and good women, children mast 1- taught to know right from wrong, to be diffident of themselves, to feel their'own weakness and sinfulness, and to lie impressed with the necessity they are under of seeking help from God through the appointed means, and to be trained in th proper use of thene divinely appointed channels of grace.

To talk about the dignitv of our nature and the inalienable rights of men and women will not elevate humanity, but, when religion is excluded, will lead to tho formation of a generation wholly given to feverish activity, excitement, sensation will everywhere spread an uneasiness, restlessness, ambitious striving, and discontent, such as we see daily growing amongst us and furnishing the ready material out of which are made the Socialism, Communism and Internationalism which threaten to destroy the coming generation. "There is the home, the Sabbath school, the pulpit." This is a false, an idie, a cruel answer. It is fale, because 'he school ig the place set apart for the training of the child. Training in what? The least important, the merely secondary, often unnecessary, knowledge? Why, then, have schools? We want good citizen, we want intelligent citizens. Very well.

lint do we want, intelligent citizens more than good citizens, or are we to believe that intelligence and virtue are either inseperable or identical? I they are neithr inseperable nor identical, and the State aims at securing good citizens, why does it merely provide for intelligence and leave virtue to the option of the parents? If religion, morality, virtus, be of primary importance, and training therein may be safely intrusted to the parents, one would suppose that these ought to be trusted also in that which is merely secondary and sul-sidiary. The State, underour syitem, blindly ignores that, which is essential to the moral training of future citizens And turns its whole attention to an enforced imparting of intelligence which, without religion, only renders a man more powerful for evil. If the State has the right to provide for the training of youth, it must have equally the right to provide all the means, and the chief one in particular, that compass that end. If the training it has in view be to make good citizens, it is bound by it own principles to apply that only and sure means for the moral improvement of man, religion. It is idle and cruel to talk of relegating this essential elementary good to the lire-side.

We all know what this practically amount to iu the majority of cases. The greatest number of parents are poor. They hare not been blessed with many opportunities of learning. Their religious knowledge in many cases is little more extensive than their secular knowledge. They know enough to get along.

They would not feel themselves competent to teach their chil-dreu even the rudiments of primary education. How could they teach religion? Or is religious knowledge to be merely rudimentary and secular knowledge more developed? "Again, had they the knowledge, have they time? Most of our people have to work hard to support themselves aud families. From dawn to sunset, and even later, they must toil. Meantime, whilst the father is so tasked, his wife has her weaker system burdened with household cares and the thousand little requirements of a growing family. The wife and mother is the head and servant of the family during most of the twenty-four hours.

When is she to teach, train, shape and fashion the characters, hearts, consciences and minds of her children? Shall she attend to this while washing, cooking, scrubbing, repairing? or mnt she do it alter the day's weary round of duties is completed She does her best, we will cheerfully, proudly admit, but that best is very little compared with what ought to be done. Add to this the fact that this poor mother, broken with cares, wearied by work, suffering from poverty, often fainting from sickness and exhaustion, resulting from overwork, is expected to do what her wealthy sister, surrounded by servants, possessed of leisure, enjoying ease and comfort, highly accomplished and thoroughly educated, feels herself unequal to! The. wealthy and the educated send their children to colleges, academies, select schools, in order to avoid educating their own children themselves. They feel iheir own incompetency, and reason rightly that they will best t-a who make teaching their specialty. What these rich people shrink from as" beyond their ease, comfort, and.

capacity, the toil-worn, tarn broken poor must put up with. It is cruel, because it is adding insult to injury, and forcing him to submit to neglecting his most important duty to his children, to train them up in the fear and knowledge of God. Now, this is thn poor man's country as well as the rich man's; his interests and happiness are as sacred as those of his wealthy nuighlior; his children are as hox ful citizens as the other's. Whv, then, make him bear a burden far hevond his strength? Why force him to gather straw as well as make the bricks? This Christian education must, then, be looked for elsewhere than in the home. The Sabbath school is not always available, is of but verv short duration, ami at intervals too far apart to le considered a feature of religious education adequate to the demands that would be made on it under rne circum ctaTirfl THE OTI1ER SIDE AGAIN.

a views. To the Editor of the Camhria Freeman Deak Sik The public schools, I see, have again len assailed, and from another point. The friend of our schools, it seem, would first make them odious iu the sight of the public, if possible but that is easier tried than done, for there are too many sensible people in the country. Some one has said that the public schools are irreligious, immoral, heathenish, etc. Now how can that lie when the teachers, the pupils and the patrons are all moral? Again, all the school books are moral in their tendencies There is not an immoral exercise i-i any of them.

Can any one disprove this? Then as teachers, pupils and patrons, as well as the text-liooks, are generally moral, how can The schools le immoral or irreh- 11 tllllKT iu fTiVl trious? When every i bow can it lie bad as a whole Tarn sure that the parents and pupils of Cambria county will not acknowledge im-S oia or irreligion; neither will the teach-, i he td-lK)ks will sak for them-veT So alT the parts are moral and the wholtf is moral. Now we will just, cause the good points of the public schools to pass in review Thev are like the public lamps in a great city on a dark night they throw light into the'sur-routnling gloom and keep the people from stumbling. They also, like the lamps, drive back thieves, robbers, aud all huuiau pests generally. I Suppose another Atilla with his Huns was I to come, as in the days of Home, and over-i turn all that is good in the land! Our pub-I lie schools would then be swept out of exist-J ence. No more would the happy faces of childhood go forth in the morning to join in the soul-ennobling exercise of knowledge.

No! they would then remain at home to tease fretful mothers, quarrel among themselves, and grow up, like weeds, without culfiva-j tion. We would return again to the foibles and errors of onr fathers, ami place a stone in one end of the bag to balance the corn in the other while carrying it to mill on the old I mare. I Another good point or characteristic of the public schools is that they educate the pnbiic and enable them to govern themselves-. If every voter was properly educated he could not be duped into casting a wrong ballot. And still another good effect of our schools is that they giv to the mind of the public strength, aptitmie anl material tsen-able it to enjoy living in this beautiful world.

A man may work, eat, exist, sleep and enjoy life as an animal, but he is something more than an animal, or else his powers UvPe him. Would a man construct a machine with a-titudes for other operations than those he wished it to perform? We think nor. So it seems to be a rational conclusion that a man should be so educated that he can look, up through nature to nature's God. And, lastly, what a blank this world would be without our schools. "Why, they are one of onr dearest institutions.

Where is the man who docs not look back to his school days with emotions of tenderness and pleasure? I am sure the people of the United States "could not think of doing without them. Those who do not like our public schools had better let well enough alone and try to improve what is not exactly up to the mark. Tkachek. STATE NOTtMAL SCHOOLS. To the Editor of the Cambria Freeman: Dear Sir Somebody has been reviewing the system of Normal Schools in our State in the Johnstown Tribune.

My only hope is that, he may continue his criticisms until he calls the attention of onr representative and other memliers of the Legislature to the injustice of the laws relating to State Normal Schools. With your permission I will briefly point out a few objections to the law, ami, iu so doing, I do not wish to be understood as censuring the system of normal training, nor normal graduates. 1. The law gives a monopoly in every district to one corporation. This district is composed of Cambria, Indiana, Armstrong and Westmoreland counties.

Indiana county has commenced the erection of buildings, and when the school is once recognized no other school of the kind dare be established in the district. This is manifestly wrong. 2. Each of these schools draws public money for its support. There are twelve districts in the State, six ot which have schools in operation.

These six schools have already drawn from the public treasury, while they have graduated only forty-eight pupils iu the classical or scientific course. They have lieen in operation from two to fourteen years aud this ha been the result. 3. They graduate pupils in the primary branches, the same as if colleges would graduate tbeirre.ierc or their soihnores. This seems to me to be simply ridiculous.

4. The law exempts all their graduates from a re-examination. Even those who graduated in the elementary branches are free from further examination. f'tli. The law gives these graduates the most prominent positions on teachers' committees in every county, no matter whether they are better qualified or not.

This is an outrage (5. The normal professors, or some of them at least, are a pretentious sot of men. They profess to know more than anylmdy else. The professor of mat hematics at the Millers-villo Normal School has been lutuseatintf everybody by theorizing on rptetfiid decimals and trying to assimilate them to the common fraction. The last yormal Monthly has twocolumnsand a half trying to change the decimal system to a purelyvrefonf system, lieadiug his iroductions reminds one of perusing uch Aito About Nothing." There is nothing uew about this.

It merely takes aw ay the characteristics of decimals and expresses the value of repellents iu common fractious. Verily this is is the age of humbugs! Quis. Motjntaik Cake.

Christina, the annual festival of joy and i gladness to every Christian heart, was sneiu i i. ere in a respectable and becoming manner. I feel a pride in having this to say, inasmuch as some of the newspapers have lieen doing their utmost to establish a disgraceful char- acter for our saintly-named village.

In jus-, lice to our citizens generally, 1 insist here I say that they do not deserve" the reputation 1 whichVonie newspaper given i them. 1 am free to admit that King Alco- hoi has been the means of leading some of, onr lioys into trouble and spoiling the pliy- siognomies of olhers while under his intiu- ence. To ht damning influence you can safely lay all the blame if we are in anyway I deserving of the contumely which has been heaped upon us. To myself personally Christmas this time i was a day r.f sorrow rather than of joy, a it brought fresh to my memory the dath of a sou whom I dearly loved. None enjoyed the pleasures of Christmas more than lie.

Our worthy council have organized and drafted ordinances for the preservation of order in the new borough of CalHtzin which I think will meet with the approbation of; all concerned. We have no Castle Tonacker, or rather I should now say Castle IJanmer, but we have a Castle Hums. It has had no inmate as yet, however, and it is to be hoped that it will never have any. Quite an excitement has been prevailing in railroad circles on account of a reduction of ten per cent, in the wages of the employ- ees. It is quite a mvstery to lcnow how a laboring innn with a large family can support them on an income of only one dollar and eight cents per day.
