Mr. Editor : Permit me through your interesting paper to offer a few thoughts to the public, on the primary principles of education. We are a fast people, we live in a fast age. The wheels of invention and science are rolling along with fearful rapidity. Man has tamed that powerful and subtle fluid Electricity, and made it subservient to his purposes and ambition. By the aid of steam he is enabled to propel powerful ma chinery to dr ve the huge steam car from station to station, and from Metropolis to Metropolis on his mis" sion of trade and commerce. But amidst the dim and busy scenes of our fast going age, is there not danger of oversteping the medium and getting on the extreme point. Now I do not wish to be understood to advocate the old pod-auger and flintlock system of doing business. But I wish to be understood to occupy medium ground, for between two extremes the medium or center is found. I allude to the primary or first step toward education, viz. Orthography, a branch or spoke in the great wheel of literature too much neglected now-a-days. It is a lamentable fact that there are among our Juveniles of the present day, but few, to use a familiar term, good spellers. Now why is it so? We have the effect now let us search for the cause. There is something wrong and the sooner we detect it and set it aright the better it will be for us. loo many of the Literati of our day whose business it is to lead the youthful mind through the intricacies of the science of literature, in their thirst for popularity as Teachers and to instill into the minds of their employers the idea that they have a peculiar aptitude for teaching, hurry their pupils through Orthography, and from that into the branch of reading, before they can spell correctly in words of two or three syllables. Such conduct on the part of the Teacher is reprehensible and cannot be too strongly censured by an intelligent public, because orthography is the foundation upon which the great superstructure Education must be built, and if the foundation is imperfectly laid the whole building must necessarily be imperfect, and such is the nature and inclination of the mine of the pupil, to pry into, search out, investigate and go ahead in search of new laurels, that when it is permitted to leave, a branch it can scarcely be induced to return and reinvestigate it. But now for the remedy. I would suffer no pupil to read until it could lay down the spelling book, and spell correctly by memory in words of two and three syllables, but I would not under any consideration suffer it to abandon the spelling book entirely, until it could spell every word therein at the second trial by memory, and I should like for it to spell very nearly three thirds of them at the first trial. If this precaution was taken in our schools, we would have better readers and loss orthographical mistakes in written correspondence, of which every one must see the necessity. . Hosier. For the Locomotive. LETTER FROM WELLS COUNTY. ; Bltjffton, Ind. April 12, 1858. Ed. Locomotive : ! ' Dear Sir : I am in possession of an incident growing out of the result of our nominating election held last Monday, which, although good enough for a place in the ' Drawer of Harper's Monthly, I will let you have. . Among the candidates for the nomination of Sheriff were the present incumbent and his predecessor. They were both beaten. So soon as the result became known, they very resignedly and heroically prepared for and made their voyage up ' Salt River' thus : they procured a miserable piece of equine flesh that could not be induced to carry double. This they mounted, bare-back, and started. Phillips, the present incumbent held the reins, Mike M. rode behind. Every lunge the old horse made forward, up went his heels, making both gentlemen 'look out for their crowns.' Thus, with the old horse lunging and kick ing, down street they went, to the great amusement of a large crowd, Phillips capping the whole affair, as they were about to turn a corner from the sight of the amused spectators, with ; " I say, Mike, can't you man age to hold that end down ?" . But I turn from the relation of this incident of ' wooden-country' fun and frolic, to pen a short but sad story ui crime, 'and o'er true tale' of life. In my last letter from this place, I said we were near the operations of the Noble County Regulators. I now hnd we nave a similar organization in our own County. I am told it numbers two hundred and fiftv mon It is not a lawful organization, but it contains our best citizens. ney pubhsh a semi-monthly paper, devoted to their interests and the morality of community. . About two years ago there came to this place a young man of agreeablo exterior, possessed of the nice little um of three thousand dollars, which had just been dev'sed him by an uncle. , Unfortunately for him, he did no know how to use it. Although highly skilled in a lucrative trade, he now scorned to follow it. And ough up to this time of temperate habits, lie now com-"ii-ncea to drink. But before he became confirmed in I le, drinking habits, a fair girl of intelligence had the misfortune to be wooed and won by him, and contrary to the wishes of her parents. They remonstrated ; she ridiculed their fears. Thev warned her ; but she heeded them not. ,.'.. ..' j 1 need not protract the story for it is not new in c aracter and consequences only in its persons. They "larriea and the young wife soon discovered her us and had not been unjustly suspicioned of forming jU,B naw. I hasten the sequel, ast Thursday evening that voung man was taken

from his young wife and his baby by the Regulators charged with being connected with the gang of horsethieves and counterfeiters, and last Saturday he was committed to go through a formal trial in the Circuit Court : (I say formal for in his case it will be but for mal,) ere he be doomed as a felon. Verily, " the way of the transgressor is hard." Truly yours, G. S. B.

. Olatha, Kansas, April 6, 1858. Ed. Locomotive : There an't a bit of war here, and I don't feel at all apprehensive of being run out o' the Territory, or even having to shoulder the musket and march to the sound of the rolling drum. I hear it rumored that we are admitted as a sister in the great confederacy, but there don't appear to be any excite ment about it Every body appears to be too intent on filing their claims, and getting money to pre-empt, to care whether school keeps or not. The land in this section of the Territory only came into market last week, but there is not a vacant claim within many mile9 of here. This is Plo-Slavery ink is the causo of such writing ; there an't a drop of Black Republicanism in it, consequently it an't much black. Please change my Tost office address from Lawrence to Olatha, Kansas. As ever, I remain yours truly, ; Noah Davenpokt. LOOK OUT FOR GOOD ROADS. Nil. Editor: We have elected a new Supervisor at Southport, and doubtless will have the roads put in tip top order, by the present Supervisor, Dr. R. N Todd, our late Marion County Representative. We are well satisfied with the Drs. election, and think he is more at hame than when in the State Legislature. In the performance of that office, (Sup.) the Doctor will be more among men of his like abilities, therefore he will be one, at least, of the Ruling Spirits in that Road District, and will do work.
