STATE TEACHERS' ASSOCIATION

Fourteenth Annual Meeting.

Tho Fourteenth Annual Meeting of tho Indiana Stato Teachers' Association will bo held at the city of Now Albany. Dccomber 25th. 26th and 27th, 1867. The Association has been steadily increasing in power and influenco sinco its organization in Decomber, 1854. In each year it has held, in some one of the cities or large towns of the State, an annual meeting, having for its object the improvement of teachers and the advancement of tho interests of popular education. These meetings have been attended by tho leading teachers of both sexes, representing tho different sections of the State, and all tho grades of our educajcational institutions, from the primary school to tho University. They have always been

not unfrequently the attendance of friends of education has boon very laP^O.

The Association has boon instrnmental in contributing largely to the promotion of the cause of education in this Stato. It has stimulated teachers jto self improvement, it has just viows as to the duties, tho position, the requisite qualifications, and tho proper compensation of teachers. It has disseminated valuabio information concerning school economy, methods of teaching, and tho legitimate objects and aims of discipline and.instruction, and it has dono much to awaken and keep alive ir» tho community a sense of tho value and importanco of an efficient system of Public Schools.

The Association has still these great objects in view, and there is abundance of room for still greater improvement and progress in all that pertains to efficient schools. It is therefore earnestly hoped that tho attendance of teachers ami friends at the coming

11-ith annual meeting will bo much larger than over boforo. Wo havo in the State over ten thousand teachers employed. At least one-tenth of tho whole number ought to be in attendance at the meeting to be held at New

Albany this winter. will be made by the Albany to entertain ladies freo, and gentlemen at one dollar per day. All railroads and steamboat lines terminating at New Albany will return members of tho Association freo.

A Sweet City.

Some idea of tho manner in which the sixty thousand Copperhead majority was obtained in tho recent election in tho city of New York may bo obtained from tho following statement made by tho New York Citizen, edited by Col. E. G. Halpino, (Miles O'Roilly,) a Democratic leader in that city

It is notorious that tho Tammany organization, utterly unscrupulous and with uncontrolled access to the City Treasury, must have spent an aggregate of not less than $300,000 of private and public money in tho recent contest. All tho pfly rolls of the city departments for the past two months havo been lengthened and strengthened by thousands upon thousands of sinecure "inspectors" and other placeholders—assigned to nominal duty, but really for no other chargo than to electioneer for the Tammany candidates. Apart from these sources of public or place-holding corruption, wc have reason to know, beyond any question, that the friends of on

General Grant.

Colonel Fornoy, in his article urging tho nomination of General Grant for President, says:

If during the gloomiest hours of our struirgle against the slave power it was U1 ysses S. Grant who confirmed tho faith of tho American pcplo, and marshaled our armies to victory after some of the bravest and best had failed, may we not hail it as equally providential that h« has been reserved for a grander and more consummate responsibility? In a now and still more ominous crisis it is to him that tho American people turn as their fittest and most deserving leader.

General Harney as a Runner. General Harney, who is now sixtyseven years of age, is six feet three inches in height, and is as straight as an arrow, and in his younger days usod to excei every Indian on the plains with whom he came in contact in running, jumping and wrestling. He is known universally among the Indians as "the fast runner." He says that he was never badly pressed but once, and that was many years ago, when he was encamped at the Mandan village, on tho Missouri river. The Indians had brought in their fastest runner, and challanged the General to run. All the tribes in that pari, of the country wero present, and all were in high glee, thinking they had a &ure thing. Gen. Harney prepared himself, and went about half a mile from camp, across a ravine, which was as

The Indians would bet a buffalo

robe against a plug of tobacco, or a pony against a few pounds of sugar and coflee. The odds they considered in their favor. The dihtance run was about 800 yards, and one from each 8ido chosen to start them, and act as judges of the race. Tho Indian got almost fifteen feet the advantago of tho General in the start, but supposing ho could beat tho Indian easily, he did not mind it at first but it was a long distance to gain, and by putting forth his utmost efforts and starting every nerve, he only beat tho Indian throe feet. .Tho Indian dropped upon tho ground at tho end of the race, exhausted, and was so much chagrined at his defeat that he would under no circumstances como hear the General again. The General would only accept a few trifling things for his winnings, but gave tho best back to tho Indian.— From that time he has been known among

1

he Indians as -'the fast run­

ner," and his influence is in proportion to his popularity.

to it," and "that's enough," why not let "well enoi'gh" alone? But the pains the Democrat takes to inform us upon the subject, and the nervous jerk with which it dashes off its disposition of tho matter, show that it doesn't think it is "enough." Notwithstanding this advocate of repudiation and a return to the old slavery regime puts on a very bold and nonchalant air over the matter, and says: "Of course, tho Republican State Convention, which will meet in February noxt, will keep clear of negro suffrage," as though it was not of any consequence to its party whether it shall so keep clear or not, we detect an underlying fear in regard to the matter. We can inform tho Democrat that tho true Republicans who will meet at Indianapolis will not "go back" upon thoir principles, but they will not accommodate their opponents by putting a plank into their platform to simply trip themselves up on, when the substance of that plank would be entirely foreign to those with which it would be placed. Negro suffrage in Indiana is not tho question which the voters will be called upon to decide next fall, but whether traitor suffrago shall select tho State officers.

Tho Republicans of this Stato aro not half as anxious to get the negro into their party as tho Democrats should be to get the plotting conspirators who sought Governor Morton's Iifo and the State's ruin, out of theirs. They aro not troubled so much that the negroes do not vote as they are that Sons of Li be

CONGRESSIONAL AMUSEMENT.—A new gams, as exciting as "help your neighbor," called, "fly loo," has of late been introduced. It is less objectionable than some games of chance, in that there is no chanco fcr cheating. It may be played by any reasonable number of persons. The players' names are written together, and a lump of sugar laid on each. Then comes tho eager excitement of waiting for a fly to light, and when it doos so, tho name of tho player under the sugar has to treat all around. It is not a very high-toned game, but it makes fun among the members of Congress with whom it is a great favorite.

The Railroad Murder.

From tho Fountain Ledger. ."v

The parties who throw tho night express train from the track at West Lebanon on Tuesday night of' last week, thereby causing such injuries to engineer Dodge that ho died two days afterward, have, we aro glad to announce, been captured and lodged in jail, to await trial for their crime. We havo taken some pains to get the following particulars which are mainly correct:

Tho day following Dodge's death, (Friday) Scott Lane, a boy aged about 18 )*ears, was arrested in or near Lobanon, and confessed that ho had, together with two other boys, Aaron Briggs and Horace Crow, thrown the' train from the track "for fun. Lane was put in jail at Lafayette Friday night, and search was immediately made for the other boys, who were traced to Paxton, III., thenco to Lodi. where they were both arrested on Saturday. Briges had a half brother at Paxton to whom he had fled with Crow on leaving Lebanon. Their story was quito different from Lane's. They said Lane proposed to them to throw the train off. saying that in tho confusion they could get some money that he had done tho thing once before at Reynolds, and understood it. A requisition on tho Governor of Illinois was procured, and they were both also taken to Lafayette jail. Afterwards, an Irishman (whose narno wo did not

her to send

her son off, and give him money to go, but sho refused lie also told the boys to got out of the way. This last per-

sou is a man of 25 years of age. He was taken to the Lafayette jail and lodged with the other three.

Horace Crow, aged about 1G, is a son of Wm. Crow, of Crow's Grove, one of the most wealthy, respectable and prominent citizens of Warren county. We understand ho went to Lafayette to get his son released on habeas corpus. Aaron Briggs, about the same age as Crow, is a son of widow Briggs, a worthy lady of a respectable and prominent family in the neighborhood. Scott Lane is a bov from Legansport, who worked in tho vicinity of Lebanon. Ht is said to bo a very shrewd and bad boy. ft seems that the throe came to Lob anon on horseback for a kind of a, spree, as tliey say, hitched their hor&es near the road, filled the cattlo-jruard,!

and awaited results. When they «w

Dodge hurt, they

the train off, and Dodgo hurt mounted their horses and rode back to widow Briggs' place where they remained till midnight, when tho party broke up. It is said they seem to be utterly unmoved at tho result of their criminal act. We think there is a chance for them to be ''moved" before thoy are through with it. Such villa.! ny ought to be met with hanging every time.

Superintendent Chap'n, of the road, had offered §1.000 reward foi the do tection of the criminals. Wo don't know who gets it, but learn from a man who was at Lebanon, that a little Irish boy about 12 years old, gavo the first information thnt led to thoir detection.

Poor Dodge died on Thursday, a victim to heartless murder. His wife was present at his death, and the scene is described as heartrending. Ho had one child, a little srirl. Tho remains were taken to Lafayetto, the homo of the deceased, and buried on Sunday with all tho honor a sympathizing people could pay to tho memory of a brave and noblo man. Spocial trains were on the road East and West, coming from as far west as Springfield. There were fourteen cars from Fort Wayne down, all crowdcd.

The funeral was the largest ever witnessed in Lafayetto. Tho Masons, of which ordoi tho deceased was a member, were present from many towns on the road. The entire Attica Lodge went, up on the special train. The funeral was preached at tho Second Preyterian Church, by Rev. Barr. Only a small portion of tho vast multitude could gain admission. All the express companies' wagons wero in tho procession, appropriately draped in mourning, like the engines on tho road. Hundreds of railroad men followed their dead comrade to tho grave. The solemn funeral train, preceded by the Lafayette Silver Band, playing sad dirges, moved to the Green bush Cemetery, where the Masonic Order, with their grand and solemn ceremonies, conducted tho burial. The immense throng of people present was a fitting testimonial to the character of a good citizen and brave man, who actually gave his own life to save those entrusted to his care. He could have jumped and saved himself, but preferred to risk death at his post. As ho lay mangled, in tho wreck, his first inquiry was for the safety of the train. And not only for this self-sacrificing act, but for his irreproachable character as a good citizen, a kind husband and father, and a true and faithful man, was he honored.

Tho struggle of the Mozart and Tammany factions of the Now York Democracy for supremacy in tho city govornment, is letting daylight into the rascally mean* by which 61,000 majority was given to tho Copperhead ticket at tho late Stato election. Tho sti ife between Mozart and Tammany for the county offices was then fierce and bitter, and the Tammany candidates succeeded by a lean majority over the Mozart nominees. An election for Maj'or and members of tho Common Council is to be held on the third day of December, and Fernando Wood appears as tho Mozart candidate for the former office, against Mr. Hoffman, tho present incumbont. Fernando is carrying tho war into tho Tammany camp in fine style, and among the other rascalities of that ancient and corrupt organization, which he ventilates, is tho pipe laying practiced by it in the State election. Ho said in a speech delivered a few days sinco: "I charge that at the late election, the Tammany Hall organization imported thieves from Philadelphia to vote their ticket and those thiovos were organized in difforent wards of the city, and that bands of them voted in more than sixteen wards and in more than one hundred and twentyfivo electoral districts [Cheers.] More than that it is known that several of tho inspectors of election, after receiving tho ballot from tho votor, substituted another ballot and doposited it in tho box."

These thieves all voted tho Democratic State ticket, and as the Mozart faction

probably

practiced tho samo

villainies they Jchargo upon their rivals some idea may bo formed of tho stupendous frauds perpetrated by tho New York Democrats, which culminated in a majority unparalleled oven in in that center of corruption.—Ind, Journal..

The Boston Advertiser thinks beof hasn't been so high as now sinco tho cow jumped over the moon.

Some timo ago, tho Rev. jy.r. Spurgeon preached a sermon on tho text— "And Mary wept." In tho midst of a stream of earnest eloquence that drew tears from many of those present, in describing tho character of the toars shed by Mary over the feet of Jesus. 1 ho broke suddenly off, and turning to his congregation, exclaimed: "The tears which Mary shed aro not tho tears as many of you pour out when you como to this altar. Thoy camo from her heart—thov wero

WUr°

°f

the poor stuff that you

present to an offended God." Then leaning over tho pulpit, and gazing earnestly into tho sea of upturned faces, he exclaimed "There aro many of you for whoso tears I would not give a farthing a quart."

A Conservative UTegro Rewarded. A correspondent of the Richmond Inquirer says that only one negro voted the Conservative ticket in King William County, Virginia. His narno (tho negroe's) iu Thomas Ruffin, and in order to reward him for bis alleged S independence, tho Rebel citizens of tho county united in a subscription to purchase a piece of land to present to him for a home. So it is not negro1 suffrago is the abstract to which tho King William County Virginians object, but to the manner in which it is exercised. If negroes vote the Conservative ticket, they aro heroes if thoy voto the Radical ticket they are brutes. This is abroad view of human rights for a professedly civilized 5 community, living under a Ropublican Government, to proclaim.

This negro has been oxaminod by a committee of Democratic physiciaas, who certified that ho had a sufficient quantity of calcarcous salt in his bones to qualify him for a voter. All negroes who voto the democratic ticket aro salty—in the estimation of that swootecented party.

A terrible railroad accident happened at Lockland Station, on tho Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton railroad thursday morning. Tho Broad Guago1 express was detained by an extra freight going south, antf while wait^ ing for that train to take tho sido track, a freight train that was following ran into the rear of tho oxpross before a man could get out to flag them. Three ladies named Morgan and a largo lady whose name is unknown were killed. The cars caught fire and were almost ontirely consumed. A man named Jackson, from Boston, was also burned to death.

The Democratic papers continue their howl about taxation. In doing so they but publish their own shame. The rebellion was of Democratic origin: it was organized by a Democratic Cabinet, and acquisced in by the Democratic leaders of tho country, and
