JSi somersetJpa. L1 IlAiMiisntmti, June (ieneral Beaver, in a speech here to-night, sounded the kev-note of the cam paisn and cried iisht to the bitter end.

The General reached here from Columbia at clock and was met at the depot by the Youn Men's Republican Club and tlie con solidated colored clubs of this city, each having bands of music. During the afternoon Senator Da vies, Republican nominee for Lieutenant-Governor, arrived here in response to a telegram of invitation, requesting him to participate in the demonstration. He, with State Treasurer Bailey, were at the depot in a barouche, and when General Beaver arrived he got in with them and rode through the line, which extended from the Ixchiel Hotel to the depot. Bed lights in profusion lit up the scene, and the cheering, as the barouche passed by, was very hearty. After General Beaver had entered the hotel, the clubs massed on Market Street, and he was serenaded by both bands, the crowd cheering lustily for him meanwhile.

When the noise had subsided, Captain Geo. G. Boyer, President of the Young Men's Republican Club, stepped to the portico of the Lochiel, and said "Fellow-citizens, permit me, on behalf of the Young Men's Club, to make an explanation. When the Republican ticket was nominated at Harrisburg, the club, believing the nominations were in a ccordance with the true principles of Republicanism, endorsed them. The Philadelphia Pre spread it broadcast that the club had endorsed the Independent nominations at Philadel phia.

In order to correct this mistake we have prevailed on General Beaver to meet us here this evening, and he has accepted our serenade, tendered to him as a man of honor, worth and ability, and fit to lead the grand old Republican party to victory. I have the honor, and take pleasure, in introducing to you the soldier-candidate of the Republican party for As General Beaver then stepped forward, he was greeted with prolonged cheers.

After the movement is now thoroughly learned, they may try pen and ink. A coarse, heavy stiff pen, a good Falcon is my choice for this. I go to the board and illustrate what I want. I take the small as the letter to begin practice upon, a running hand. The orders are: "With pen on the line, move promptly in the direction indicated until the next command; execute the movement by the arm; ready up, down, up, down, In early days the method of teaching penmanship was very simple, although it involved much work on the part of the teacher.

Pens were all fabricated by him from the goose-quill. Copies were all written by him unless fortune favored him with one or more larger pupils no wrote a passable hand. But it is useless to recapitulate the doings of the days that are gone. Quill pens are among the things of the past, in deed there ar fw mpn who can make a good quill pen, or write UP down, up." The last up is spo- weii witn one alter it is made, there is one thing lacking for American ingenuity to invent, and the man who achieves it will have a fortune ken to indicate that the work is finished. By throwing in other letters from time to time vou will, nt length, succeed in securing in his hands; that thine is a pencil 'the writing of whole words and scn-whichwill write a clear, black, tenees.

Suppose, sir, you had foully slandered me: "I never slander." "Then. sir. sunwise I had coollv and deliberately insulted you. What would you do?" Id rise up this wav, put down my book this way, and reach over like this, and take him by the nose as I take you, and give it a three-quarter twist just When the little man let go of the big man's nose, the man with the white hat on began to cronch down i to pet away from bullets, but there was no shooting." 1 he big man turned red, then pah-, then looked the little man over, und remarked: of course- that's it exactly."

The trouble of teaching him to use his right hand is not compensated by results. Some teachers may not agree with me on this point, but I think most of them will. I might carry out this chapter to much greater length, but I cannot see that it would be of much benefit. Penmanship should be illustrated in order to convey the meaning clearly, but of course in such a series of articles as this it is utterly out of the question. My next chapter will be "Emulation and Exciting Interest." Senator Cumerwn.

The Independents boldly assert that the sole object of their movement is a tight against the Carner-ons, the lioss system and the machine. With ail their vindictive-ness, however, they dare not say that Senator Cameron has not always been a consistent, earnest Republican. They dare not assert that I he has ever wavered or faltered in his devotion to the promotion and protection the great industrial interest of the State and Nation. They cannot point to a single public act jin orom of the senate inconsistent with a representative of the great pplit-ical and private record is unimpeachable by Independent or Democrat, and is the admiration of all true Republicans. With wonderful sagacity in bis judgment of men, his career has been one of almost unparalleled success, and the affairs of the State and Nation have alwavs been A Stalwart's Question, which Cannot Be Anawrrrtl.

Influence of Newspapers. A school teacher, who had been a long time in his profession, and witnessed the influence of a newspaper upon the minds of a family of chil li tiren, writes as follow? I have found it to be a universal sands, and said Gentlemen: I accept this compliment, betokening, as it does, the loyalty of the good Republican people of Harrisburg. I do not accept it as personal, but when an anonymous correspondent attacks you, it is right to show where you stand. It is now too early to declare yourselves in a campaign which involves all that is dear to you. the issues that we have fought and strived for.

(Cheers). The time has not yet arrived when Republicans are ready to hand over the Government of the State and Nation to a party which docs not represent a particle of the purity in- government and doings on the globe. fact, without exception, that those scholars ot both sexes and ol all ages who have access to newspapers at home, when compared with those who have not, are: 1. Better readers, excellent in pronunciation, and consequently read more and understandingly. J.

They are better spellers, and de; fine words with ease and accuracy. 3. They obtain a practical knowl edge of geography in almost half the time it requires of other, as the newspapers have made them acquainted with the location of the important places, of nations, their volved in the principles of Republi canism. The lines of battle have not yet been drawn, but when they are, the Republican party will be found to be the attacking party. No defense in this can-paign, if you please.

It means attack and victory that's what we fight for. and that's how we will win. From Lake Erie to the Delaware the same spir it animates the people as it does you to-night, and vou touch elbows with true Republicans all over the State. We have known dissatisfaction before, but ditl you ever know it to succeed Cries of "No No 4. They are better grammarians, for having become so familiar with every variety of style in the newspapers, from the cotnrrran-plaee advertisement to the finishing and classical oration of statesmen, they more rtadily comprehend the meaning of the text, and constantly analyze its construction with accuracy.

They write better compositions, using better language, containing more thoughts more tdearly and correctly expressed. i).

I do not like "Gillott's .003," and therein I differ from very many teachers.

My objection is that they are too sharp. "Gillott's Victoria" are much better; they are indeed an excellent pen, but they are very difficult to get "The Duff's College pen" is my favorite for classes in penmanship. They may be obtained by writing to the proprietor of Duff's College, Pittsburgh, Pa. Having settled on a pen, the next thing is ink. The first requisite of ink is that it flows freely, is free of sediment, permanent, and of pro-nouncrd color, jet black.

This necessitated the calling in of a large extra force of clerks in order to copy them. They had been done in violet ink, winch a few years since was very popular, and recently is so again. There is an English ink which I ue for my own writings: it is liable to the objections of being a slow drier and of clogging the pen unless frequently wiped off, but 1 regard it as the best ink made. It is called Walkdin's Japan ink. I nev er can obtain it otherwise than by sending to Pittsburgh for it.

In my own writing I only permit myself one specialty, and that is 1 use Ester-brook's swan quill pens, No. '2-V2, but they are too coarse for penniar' ship classes, and most writers object to them on occount of their flexibility.

A gold pen I will not allow in my school room. Accustom a boy to good steel pens, and he has all he needs. One thing in regard to the selection of pens and pencils. Does a jierson write a heavy hand? He wants a stiff pen, or a hard pencil. Does he write a light hand? He wants a limber pen or a soft pencil.

Paper should be clear white, and pupils should be trained to write on both ruled and unruled paper. Fashion, for a few years past, has seemed to dictatetheuse of unruled paper. At the present time few teachers will have to write their copies, as trip ennr.trv i flooded with "sys tems of penmanship," all possessed not sufficient of a Senator; that of more or less excellence, all giving jh political and social standing is very excellent instructions, and few not equal to the best; that his fidel-of them ever used in actual ity to party or friends has ever been questioned, or that his senatorial career has not been sufficiently pro- nounced and influential? Then it must be that he is too much of a Senator, that he wieids too much in- Huence, tint his counsel and advice in the State and the Nation is too potent, and that it has alwavs been directed to the liest interest of the whole country and the Republican party, without a single exception, and therefore he must lie humbled; and in order to accomplish this, the Republican party must be defeated, and the control of the State, and perhaps the National Administration, must be handed over to the Democratic part' to satisfy the caprice of the independent, disappointed oflice-seeker and politican. No, a great State like Pennsylvania should le proud of and honor her Senator who has the political and personal record, and can wield the influence that Senator Cameron can and does. While he is not, perhaps, as eloquent in debate as are a very few other Senators, he is as efficient in all other respects as the oldest, most experienced and eloquent Sen- ator on the floor of the senate or; elsewhere, and we feel confident that the election in November will dem-i onstrate that the people of Pennsyl- i vania appreciate Senator Cameron's services, and that his steadfast fidelity to the interests of the State, the Nation and the success of Republican principles will be approved by no uncertain expression of public sentiment through the votes of the people.

llarritburrj Tekjraph. To the EiUtor of the Prm: Sik: Will you kindly enlighten many honest Republican readers of your" paper on the following points, via: Was the second plank in the platform of the HarrisDurg, convention, on which so much stress has lately been laid, to wit: "That competent and faithful should not be removed without cause," designed to mean that officers thus qualified should hold their offices until removed by death? This seems to be the construction placed on it by many so-called Independent newspapers, and, in view of the well known tact that officers do sometimes die, they very rarely, if ever, resign, is not this really the proper inference? and, in your opinion, is it not at variance with the settled principles of our government, and, therefore, not only impolitic but somewhat unsafti, and, ia consideration of the fact that the people decided against a' uthird term," floes this exactly express the sentiments of our people? Second, Why the ticket nominated at Harrisburg called a Cameron ticket? All know that General Beaver has beep spoken of very generally in connection with fie Governorship for at least four years past, and Mr. Da vies' name has been prominently before previous State conventions; and since every single name on that ticket is conceded by all to be that of a gentleman of unapproachable character and undisputed ability and fitness for the office to which he aspires, and since those were precisely the qualifications of the several candidates the State convention was asked by the people to place in nomination, what more can be asket and what difference can it make who first suggested their several names, whether it was Senator Cameron, Governor Hoyt, Attorney-General Palmer, Mr. Wolfe, Mr. Barker, or any other of the numerous bosses? It is certain that some one would do, and suppose that Senator Cameron was the one guilty of this grave offense; from the high position he occupies was he not qualified to do or are the people to understand that Senator Cameron i3 not to hold any opinions on such matters, or, if so, be inuat not dare to express th in?

Cm. i Rural World, of St. Louis, rtlation to this tamous white grap which is cf especial interest, comiogA S3 it does, from th originator of the "Martha" grspe: Friesp CotiCMAjr: We have heard so much about the two New White Grapes of the Nortti, Niagara jand Pocklingtoii, that our curiosity was greatly aroused. 1 he latter wc have growing, but the former it seems was not to be had for love of money.

Now. however, sinco reading Cample U's comparison made Boston, wo feel a3 well without Jhe Niagara. He says "Bunches g-er than the illustrations, and Weighing more than a found. Much the largest and moet attractive white grape of native origin yet introduced, throwing the Niagara, which wen? exhibited beside it. entirely in the shade." Last Friday I received from Rochester, a small basket of Pocklington in most excellent condition, ard nothing for a long time afforded us more pleasure.

Ahbon'i the fruit was taken from viuwa planted only twenty-nine months ago. and the vines left overbear, lor the purpose of ascertaining what they could do, some of the bunches weighed over half a pound, and some of the berries measured almost one inch in diameter. In quality, it is, to my taste, just about good enough. It is somewhat like the Martin', but less foxv and better. We learn that the originator, sent four shoots to an exhibition, with three bunches on each, ami the twelve bunches weighed eleven Eounds.

This has probably never een done before by an American grape. A peculiarity about it is that many of the smaller berries have but a single seed, while the average is but two, the largest berries usually three, and in one I found four. The seeds are small for so large a grape. Here is nearly all rich, sweet, buttery matter, instead of trootl Hurt of l.errr rieincr i 1 ed of seed. If my judgment is correct, fourteen pounds of those grapes -rill mal'H a rro 1 I luwau a uiiuii vr- 11 1U-, ttuu 1.

will make good wine without doubt. It will, however, be some before much wine will be made out of it, for it will be in too great a demand for the table. While Martha has done nobly and thousands of acres are planted with it and I need not be ashamed of having originated it I now resign and give the palm to Mr. Pocklington. It is a strong grower, and looks as healthy as any vine I ever saw.

I have no vines for sale, therefore no axe to grind, but simply write this so those who intend to plant should not faillto plant it. It is a most beautiful fruit. The seed can be seen if the berry be held between the light and ne's eye. I have had the fruit since hist Friday, (Oct. I'Sth and this evening a bunch of it is fresh and sound.

This, after traveling a thousand miles by express, tells what its keeping qualities are. Samuel Millek. Blufton, Nov. 2d, lss. We understand the entire saleable stock of this grape is controlled by Geo.

Now, in this who is most worthy or competent to be boss one who has always proved successful in carrying the Republican banners to victory, or from one to a dozen of jealous malcontents who have never proved anything except their insatiable desire to rule or ruin, and who are unalterably Metermined to accept no other issue? Lastly, in your candid opinion, such of Senator Cameron's friends as have obtained placehrough him. If his official nd private character is unimpeactTable as it is why make war on him? Is it a disqualification for the continued respect and confidence of the Republican party of the State that Senator Cameron possesses more influence in State and national politics than others? On the contrary, should not the great state of Pennsylvania be proud of her young Senator, who wields an influence second to no man in the senate of the United States, and is not less honored and respected by the National Administration than the oldest and most distinguished Senator on the floor of the senate. If his public acts and his private character are unimpeachable as they are what is it that the Independents complain of? Certainly it is not that Senator Cameron after our school days are over. Mv plan is to allow a certain time twice each day for writing. I endeavor to assien this time when the pupils are not nervous, from the excitement of play, or any other cause, and in order" to do this I place it just after I have heard my reading classes.

The period allotted is fifteen minutes in forenoon ant! fifteen minutes in afternoon. While this time Lists all must write. Previous to writing distribute copy books. After writing take them up and deposit them in your own desk. Twice a week distribute pens, one to each pupil.

See to it that each pupil has a piece of old newspaper lo serve as a en-wipcr. I prefer it to anything else, and it costs nothing. See that the ink wells are properly filled, and that thev are closetl when not in use. Notice that improper formations are not cultivated; if learned see to it that they are not jiersistetl it. By illustrating the improper forms with chalk on the blacklioard, many ot them may be guarded against There should le proper forms inculcated for holding the pen, and yet I am not in favor of teaching the same mode to all pupils.

No two persons have the same precise formation of hand, hence no two can hold a pen precisely alike. My fingers tingle even now at the remembrance of sundry gentle taps with the ferule because I "cramped my fingers." but I am not cured of the habit Many persons claim that writing is a natural gift. I believe that any did not the part of the Independent ed one. One evening not long ago a little girl of nine or ten entered a place in which are a bakery, grocery and saloon in one, and asked for five cents worth of tea. "How's your mother asked the boy who came forward to wait on her.

"Awful sick, and ain't had nothing to eat all day." The boy was just then called to wait upon some men who entered the saloon, and the girl sat down. In five minutes she was nodding, and in seven she was sound asleep and leaning her head upon a barrel, while she held the poor old nickel in a tight grip between her thumb and finger. One of the men saw her a3 he came to the bar. and after asking who she was, said: "Say, you drunkards, see here. Here we've been pouring down whisky when this joor child and her mother want bread.
