Mr. Editor Sir, in the last number of the Locomotive 1 find an article in relation to the report of the Trustees of Pike Township signed C. S. Stevens. '- . . As far as the expense of the Township is reported, I have not a word to say, says the Hon. Gentleman, but they will find men who will not be rode with a halter of their own manufacture. We shall here assert that there has been no hal.ter but the legal one used, and that is hung upon a high pillar, (the Constitution,) and those who choose may . slick their heads in, as the Gentleman has done who signed the article spoken of above. Listen to what he gasped out while his head is In the halter, altho, men will make many -r i . j.iru, Knurs. "I for one.
jjeciarauons in inch u'-a ' says he, "that the tax for building school houses are Unconstitutional:" Who told him this. Was it the Legislature last winter, when they gave the Trustees the sole power to try a school house tax. I think not. Again,' "the Trustees have onlv to ask the city, and they will veto the school ta-r"" Who told him this? Was it the citizens in
1848, when they were required to express their sentiments by a viva voce vote, on the abstract - question of tree schools. No, they gave over sixteen thousand majority to free schools. Was it when the citizens were called on to receive the Consiitution in 1851, which says that Education shall be open, and without charge to all. ' I think not, for they expressed themselves in the em- ' phalic language of over eighty thousand majority. - Was it when the citizens ol Pike Township was ' called on in 1854 to vote on the school house tax. No, not then, for they gave majority in favor of "a thirty percent tax. Now would the gentleman be kind enough to inform the citizens where
he trot his information, ana not merely asseii,
may all those young Ladies be blessed with Temperance husbands, and may all still persevere, and assist in putting the law in force if it is violated. This should be the wish of every man and woman. . H. J. Franklin, Ind. ,
but probably he would have a vote taken in some ; nook or corner where he has found a few anti school men. But the frame rs of our Constitution were too wise to admit votes taken in that ' form, for they well knew that there were some who prefered the cent in the pocket, to the dollar in the head;1 but they did not intend that their children should be left without an education. Again, says he, "the tax was paid without a word. That is remarkable! Men are apt to do things when they cannot avoid it, and the Constitution of the State has pledged the property of their State for the Education of the children, regardless of the owner; but I would ask the Gentleman how many applications were made for the refundment of the money, and how many Attorneys were consulted for the purpose of obtaining the tax back. I wonder why they did hot get it, if it was so Unconstitutional as the Gentleman ' represented it. " I have but one more statement to make," says he, " that the Trustees hired a Teacher for the term of six months, and as soon as the money was out. the school was out." Here I would say, that the gentleman had better observe the truth a little closer, or inform himself a little better of the proceedings of the Trustees, before he layes them before the citizens, for the Trustees have in no case employed teachers for a longer time than they had money in their hands, or the probable amount about to come into their hands, which he is generally paid about two months tuition ; and as for the hogs that tenant the house, when they are in it, it is better represent
ed than when the youth of the vicinity is in u , yet the gentleman would hot pay a tax to build a new one if he could avoid it. Now listen to his next words his head still in the halter" will you not, President Wiley, this year spend some thirty or forty days in the service of Pike Township, board yourself, and find your own horse when it is necessary, and not charge us one cent for it ? We have paid you one dollar per day the last two years, but it went hard with some of us. 0 ! do not charge us this year." If you were as well acquainted with the sentiments of President Wiley, on education, as l am, you would not ask him, if he would prefer the cent in the pocket to the dollar in the head.' I dare say that he does not value men by their property, but by their morality and mental worth. ' Yours, fec, ' J- N. Cotton.' : Mr. Editor, I am authorized to say, the opponents of the free school system, can have an opportunity to discuss the subject face to face, by appointing their time (in gentlemanly order) at the Township house, with plenty of opponents. ;; ". - j ' I. N. C. , We are glad this opportunity is offered, as it is a better plan for neighbors to recconcile differences of opinions and jundgment, than by a newspaer controversy. Ed.

SST The following is an extract from a letter from one of our citizens now on a trip east. It is dated Pittsburg, June 15th. We expect to be able to lay one weekly before our readers, and we know they will be of interest: " I observe that the wheat crops from IndiannnnlU to PiLtsbursr look fine, and the general

no one need hang himseit to avoid starvation. Ohio and Indiana will produce enough of corn this vear, if we should have no droughts, to feed
the United Stales. There appears to be a great quantity of apples and peaches. The recent
rains had inundated a consiaerauie poruuu ui bottom lands through Ohio.
The superiority of the Indiana railroads over the one on which we came through Ohio, was readily perceived by our company, as freely spoken off, and 1 understand that the comparison holds good throughout. I believe that all the Indiana roads are built on the most approved and permanent plan. I felt proud of the eating houses of Indiana, when I was called to a particular test in Ohio. Our good old.ladv apologized for the want of taste and skill of the Ohio eating houses by saying, that " some people put to much stifness in Their crust," some of the company quit eating, and shook their sides as if they were afraid that the supper would "stiffen" them. I admired the old lady's charity, and suffered for some hours the influence of too much "stifness in making and baking bread. I have not explored the wonders of this coal stained city ; but as soon as I do, I will with pleasure give the readers
of the Locomotive the result ot my ODservation
SELF SACRIFICE. ' How many are willing to sacrifice themselves for others ; all may answer, I am, but when the time comes for us to do it, we shrink, and would rather not do it. I mean the sacrifice of our enjoyments, goods, and other things that tend ot make our fellow creatures happy and comfortable. But this is not all ; when we make the sacrifice it should be with a happy and obliging manner ; and we should not look for praise, for it is not always given to the most worthy of it, but sometimes the most unworthy. But it is not always of the sacrifice of home, kindred, and enjoyment that we are "called to make ; but of life. . Life that is so very precious to us all. Look at the martyrs of olden times, they - sacrificed all that they possessed, and their lives also,
for their religion. They received no pii .ui their noble deeds here on earth ; but it was echoed around the throne of God. Christ has commanded us to take up the cross and follow him. They obeved, but it cost them self sacrifice. In this generation it is more civilized, and u. Oo.r;fi,.o f WVis nntbv compulsion. But if
we are called upon to make a sacrifice, however great or small, let us do it, and above all things do it wi',h cheerfulness of manner and disposition.

No Arrests Might Watch Heavy Taxes.Since the 12th of June, we are informed by the Jailor, there has not been a single arrest or commitment to prison the Mayor sits quietly in his official chair, and the Night Watch doze on the store boxes. At the meeting of the Council on Monday, Mr. Jones offered a resolution that a sufficient amount of the city revenue be set apart to pay the Night Watch, making them preferred nvf.r all claimants on the city. This
was not adopted. At the last meeting, Mr. Delzell offered a resolution to dispense with one Watchman in each Ward, which was not adopted. If this had been carried, it would have reduced the expenses of the city $315 00 a month. Why not dispense with one? It is admitted on
all hands, that there is not so much need for all the Watch, since the new liquor law went into operation,' and there is great need for' the money spent in this way, for other purposes. The Relief Co. want an Engine House 3 months pay for half the Watch would build it. Our citizens

This place is situated -on the Illinois Central Rail Road, forty miles east of Springfield, and is near the geographical centre of the State. It is one of the most beautiful and flourishing towns in the State, and is noted for its healthfulness and the richness and beauty of the country around it. It has more rail road advantages than any town in the interior of the State, being at the crossing, junction, and termination of some of the most important Rail Roads in the State. The great Western Rail Road which extends from this place to Springfield, and to Naples, and which is to form a link or part of the great East and West line of Rail Way , that is to extend from the Eastern Cities, in a direct line through the
capitals," and centre of the great States of Ohio,
Indiana and Illinois to tot. josepn, mo., is uuisueu to this place from, Naples, a distance of ninety miles. Two passenger trains each way pass oyer the road. Large numbers of passengers going East, are thrown daily at this point, and for want of a rail road direct to Indianapolis, have to take the northern and circuitous route by Chicago. It
is to be regreted that the Indiana and Illinois
Central Rail Way, which extends lrom Indianapolis to this place, is not completed. If it were finished the principal part of the immense travel east, instead of going by Chicago would pass over
said road, to Indianapolis, wiiicn wuuki mui uuij

The city extends, it should be stated, to the White River. , I would send this communication to the city organ) but for the fact, that I wish it inserted in a paper of wider circulation than that.'

Vt the -Philadilphia convention of Know Nothin-s, recently held, at which delegates were in aendance from nearly every State in the Union the delegates from twelve northern states, induing Indiana, protest against the action of the majolty
on the slavery question, and withdrew from te
council. The following in the protest ot tie Indianadelegates : " The undersigned Delegates, representing the Council of the State of Indiana, respectfully protest againgt the platform adopted by the National Council at its present session, and beg leave to say that in regard to the measures known as the Kansas-Nebraska bill, neither those within the Council of the State of Indiana, nor the people, have awaited the action of the National Council in order to form their opinions. Their opinions have been formed and avowed.
An issue has been made with their political antagonists, and the soundness of those opinions
tested in public debate and trial at the ballot-Dox. The edicts of the National Council, however cononical they may be, will be powerless to change those opinions or to reverse the action of
the people ot Indiana. Always conservative m their opinions and actions ; always mindful of the
Compromises ot the uonstitntion oi me uuncu
States ; ardently devoted to the American Union, they will see with regret the promulgation
of a platform by this body which can have no other effect than to increase the fury of the conflagration which the passage of the Kansas-Nebraska bill has lighted up. The undersigned respectfully express their deliberate conviction that immediately upon the . publication of the platform adopted, the Order in the State of Indiana will cease to acknowledge the authority of the National Council ; and they respectfully ask that this protest may be received as a termination of their duties as delegates from that State. -' '' ' '

There is trouble ahead in the political world.
The Journal, in alluding to the above difficulty
says : .
The storm is com in rr. Whetherwise statesmen
predicted it long ago, when the first puff of the South wind stirred the garments of the North.
The breeze has swelled to a gale since, and thun
der is heard distantly but distinctly rolling in the far Southern horizon. There will be a storm,
and it will rage furiously for a time. Timid men afraid of thunder, selfish men afraid of their har
vests, blind men who mistake the blaze of the liirhtenino- for the reappearance of the sun, may
think it will pass off to the West, and end in a
tornado in llanzas, out every man witn eyes anu brains knows that it is coming here. Looking
the other way won't avert it, but only prevent us seeing the best way to; encounter it. The only course, to adopt Hamlet's metaphor, is to " take
arms against it, --anu uy opposing cnu For submission, we have painfully proved, won't end it. The storm will come, but itwill pass
away, leaving- the air and the soil better suited to
the orowtli ot healthy sentiments than oeiore.
The duty of the North we think is plain. She
did not - make or provoke the conflict. It was
begun against her earnest protest. .It lias-been"
forced upon her. If there had been exhibited by
the South, any sincere desire, even to arop uie Slavery issue, to let parties re-arrange upon some other than a sectional basis, and not force the
North either to submission or resistance, though it would have been in effect a sacrifice of every
rio-ht the North claims, we believe, many North
ern men would have met such a disposition by a
like concilatory spirit.- But even that was refus ed. . The South declared in the Know Nothing
Council, that the whole order should approve the Nebraska fraud, submit to the' Kansas outrages in silence, or abandon all fellowship with
them. ., ... i : -'
We have no choice but to meet the conflict
manfully. We will not be allowed to avoid it, if we would. ' Let us then take a lesson from our i i i e
opponents. They are gathering every snaoe oi
opinion and grade ot pnrty cilsuncuon, into one great slavery-extension army. Know Nothings stand shoulder to shoulder with Catholics.
Democrats with Whigs, Secessionists with Juion men, the mad-brained Charleston Mercury with the moderate Louisville Journal, the disciple of Calhoun with the friends '. of Benton, uniied in one purpose, however they may quarrel about others, and that is, to keep from the North the territory taken by fraud and held by force. Let us, in like manner, offer the hand to every man,' of whatever party, who will aid in resisting this great wrong and restoring peace to the country by securing -the violated rights of the North. No matter if all. do not agree upon this or that abstract doctrine, if one hesitates about going as far as as another, and a third wants to go further than either, so long as all are willing to go far enough to right the wrong.
