—Martin Luther had a proper appreciation of the diflicult and laborious task of “teaching the young ideas to shoot,” when he-gave utterance to the following sentiment: I will say briefly of a diligent, pious school teacher, or magister, or of whomsoever it is, that faithfully byings up boys and instruets them,.that such an one can never be sufficiently recompensed or paid with money.” And yet how often, in the language of the heathen Aristotle, “is this calling so shamefully despised among us, as though it were altbgether naught.” i . «+Elder J. E. Harris, who some two years ago retired from his la}bofs here, on’account of his wife’s ill-health, and removed with his family to Utica, 0., informs us in a friendly note that the change has been a great benefit to his wife's health; that he himself is enjoying good health and is “full of work,” having succeeded in building up a fine school on’ the basis of the Normal Academy which he established here. = Over 80 students attended his school during the fall term.

There is a prospect of a renewal of the scenes of violence and bloodshed which oceurred last winter in the Penrnsylvania coal regions, It is announced that by the 15th of this month 2~ general suspension of work in the anthracite mines will occeur, and that 10,000 men will be thrown out of employment for the winter. ~The order for this wholesale suspension proceeds of course from the Anthracite Monopoly in New York, which holds in the hollow of a merciless hand the ‘control of the coal production, and which dictates the price of coal at'all the principal centres of shipment. The reason assigned for ordering a -general suspension of mining operations is over-production,——ithan is to say, ai]‘continuance of work throughout the winter would result in the mining of a larger quantity of coal than could be disposed of at present prices; but the lordly monopolists keep up the price just the same, and in the end inflict a double damage in limiting consumption and in throwing out of employment thousands of men. . It can be claimed for the idle and discontented miners, and with not a little justice, that ﬁtl)ley ‘alone ‘should not be held accountable for the era of lawlessness and cl_jﬁna ‘which follows a general suspension of work; ‘but that the selfish and grasping poliG LIS mindowalng enopd e in-some measure morally responsible for.the bad blood and violence of the R ) S A g . e

The gobble of the gobbler is again ‘heard in the land. Thanksgiving passed off here, and nary a death to turkey or goose. EmnE L . You know Horace Greeley advised young men to “get married and go West,” and that is just what “Shorty” did.- ‘' This lit{le occurrence happened one of those cold days last week. I tell you winter will “fetch ’em.” ' A. daughter of Wm. McClellan is here from Kansas, yisiting friends. She brought with her’an ear of*sound corn that was raised from July planting. She reports things in that State generally in a flourishing condition. Quite an accident occurreq at this place, on the 8..& O. road, last Saturday. As the fast mail train, No. 3, ‘was coming in on time the gravel train, heavily loaded, was trying to get in upon the switch. But before the latter could clear the main track the fast train ran into her rear cars, totally demolishing three of them and crippling every car on the train, except one. Every coach on the fast train was more or less injured, two of them being rendered useless for the time-being. The locomotive, too, was almost a total wreck. The engineer on the fast train is deserving of: great credit for his remarkdble presence of mind in throwing on the air brakes and. reducing the speéd of his train. The weather was so very foggy that a train could not be seen at a greater distance than one hundred yards. We have not yet heard an estimate of the amount of loss to the company. - - J.
