The Supreme Sustains the Cudsel.

There are in almost every community some parents who, although - they thump thunder "chit of their children when they nre angry and Jet them grow up undisciplined at other tiimpp, yet are always very • Indignant if a school teacher happens, in the, discharge of his duty, to administer a well deserved castigation to their offspring. Buch people are everlastingly making trouble for teabhprs,' lik various ways, and not infrequently cause them to be prosecute !, foV. aesnult and battery.. Such a case recentl y was decided n the Supreme C-raiT A teacher. n Mareiixli'county puni -hed a pupil and was fined for assault and battery. The case was carried to the Supreme C.-urt and that tribunal ri versed the decision. The opinion is of much general interest, end is re jgiterT: I A■cchooi'tpacl: 'r has no general right of chastisement for all offeii<r.| aS Inis tie parent. The teacher’s light in that. respect is restricted to r e Ereiis of his. jurisdiction and rospon ilflliTy ns a teacher. Blit within those-limits ft teacher may exact compliance with all reasonable demands and may, in a kind spirit, inflict. corporal' rmnishment upon ft pupil lor disobedience. This punishment ought always to bn apportioned t > tlie gvavUj' of We offense and ttitbiu the lwnwd£ of moderation.

prof. Wilkinson's Piatiorm.

Tho well known and verjj ecctmtric Fros. Wilkinson, was in Rmisselael and its vicinity the greater part of last week. The Professor is now out of politics but lie has a platform, which makes up in compreliefisiveness what it lacks in practicability. Tire billowing is the plath rm and preamble: The following, although perhaps rather imyracti.cabie, under tlie piES£®t existing order <n thing.,;. 1 tender ns a peace offering, asM s.om tiling to approxi mate-as nearly as possible in the future: PLANK FlliST. “Let us unroll the endless scroll or i-vei-hsi ng time. -Li'tireb L n to the voices. of the distant, the. great and the mighty dead.

We are creatures of habit r.nd education, circumstances and opportunity; governed by our surroundings, and the influences which are brought to .-bear upon each and every oua of us. No two ot us have seen lead or hbaid the. samuZ.things, in regard to. men, things, habits, opinions, taste's or peisuits. Each one.: believes the most of what he - hgs : . and heard the most of, as a general thing, and no one is to blame for what they have seen, read or heard or the jniiuenct.s which have been brougiit to bear upon them, ai.d widen have made- them what. ihey are. Let us not allow orrselves io lie mesmerized into the belief -of low, silly, slanders. Stroag, dogmatical, mesmeric assertions, are not proof. Respnciftflly.

A paragraph ha!? been going the j rounds of the press lately, stating i ihat by. a. rccciiLriding of .the post-! office department, all letters mail- j cd on trams are thrown off at the ' ■next p»st-priute,..io haxe-t'hesinrh ps cancelled. j There is no truth in | the statement as no such absurd ruling was ever made. Postal clerks must receive all properly prepaid matter, wherever offered, and forward it promptly, to its destination. A law passed March 121877, gives \ the Board of Commissioners of each county of Indiana the authority to .appoint two students, resi-. dents of the county, to Pardue j University, and the students • thus ’ appointed are exempt from the payment of entrance and incidental fees, and the regular charges for room, heat and light. The reduction thus provided for amounts to 833 a year. There are no pupils attending from Jasper county at present. Persons desiring the appointment should make their application to the Board at their March session. School open to both sexes. Applications can be left with the county auditor.

An Auspicious Bcgiuning.

The meeting at the court house, last Friday evening To initiate a movement for forming a building and loan association, was well attended, although tlie fact that the _G. A. R. post meets Friday evenings haj the effect of keeping away a considerable number who otherwise would have been there. Pyof, F. W. Roubelt presided at the meeting and G. E. Marshall acted as secretary. Some time was spent in discussing the benefits and practical workings of building and loan societies. On motion a committee was..appointed L’ prepare a f<n*m of articles of associa tion and by-laws, to present to the next met;ting. The committee ’consists'oETliel following: IV. B. Austin, Vai Seib, G. E. Marshall, E. D. Rhoades, A. Leopold, F. VV. Renbeit. —-re. ... Tho following were appointed a committee to solicit subscriptions to the .stock of the associ pi-m: Hiram Day; J. H. 8. Ellis, F. J. Sears, W. B. Austin. IL W. Portcr. The next meeting will bo next Munday evening, at 8 o’clock, nharp. It will be a very important meeting, and every prospective stockholder should be present, without fail. Atjhe close of the meeting anumber of persons voluntarily came forward and put down their names for shares. The number then stdiecribed for lieing about 40. piorv Horsiis ©ST.

The movement to organize a' building raid loan association, iu . Ib'.msselaer, has, so ia>\ I'ith . • phenomenal success. L nless some j ■ unforeseen and altogether unlikely ‘ contingency occurs, the associa- i tion will.be fully organized and in 1 complete running order in the' course of a few weeks, with a cap-1 I ital stock of 8100,000, or more, ful- i ■ly subscribed. The total amount 1 subscribed at this writing, is al-1 ready considerable in excess of 5100,000, on a 5200 sharp basis, and unices some who have subseribed unwisely withdraw their sub- ■ seriptione, it is evident that it will | be necessary to organize with more than the anticipated 500 shares. Fowler Era' —This has been a very busy court, and more than the usual amount, of work has been done. Judge Ward and Prosecutor Marshall started into the work early on the fijst day of the term and every hour since then has inaTdocket aud other eases, The court notes show that they have done theii work well.
