"Consciousness of Right Doing.”

In its Dane of April 30th ti c Mishawaka Enterprise insinuates that the “editors of the I.aportc /feral'/, Rochester ,°py and Rensselaer Union, all disappointed Postoffice men,” would have the “people ot the eleventh district dethrone from his position” General Packard because “he would rather have the ‘concionsuess of right doing than the highest earthly honor without’.” Does the Enlerpriee believe that General Packard was prompted by a “consciousness of right doing” when he wrote to lion. Jas. I). Delford a th»ce-column letter concerning Mr. Powell, full of malice and bitterness and even containing falsehood, based upon what is now transpiring to have been the nonsense of gossiping talebearers, thereby endeavoring to array neighbor against neighbor and create strife among his party constituents?

Had General Packard the “consciousness of right doing” when he deliberately broke his solemn promises made to Mr. Mattingly, of Marshall county? Had General Packard the “conWciohsiiess of right doing” when he coolly pocketed the money sent him by the State Central Committee for the purpose of defraying the expenses of speakers from abroad engaged to assist him in canvassing the district, nml permitted individuals and county central committees to pay not only their travelling expenses but also to pay his own hotel bills? Is it with the “consciousness of right doing” that General Packard has np to this hour steadily refused to pay for the advertising of his appointments in democratic counties, by editoff whose papers have indifferent support, and who had no interest in his election save the love they had for the principles of the parly which had nominated him?

Is Mr. Packard acting with the “consciousness of right doing’ when ho writes to our neighbors that.we, logether with tiie other republican papers in his district who dare criticise liis policy as a party leader and his capacity as a statesman, are corrupted by democratic influence and ‘ cunningly set after” him to the end that the State shall be lost beyond redemption? Is Congressman Packard acting the part of an honest man. sustained by the cheering “consciousness of right doing” when he prostitutes his franking privilege to the circulation of calumnies impugning the motives of prominent republicans ; who watched with fatherly solicitude his political infancy, who labored faithfully to secure his nomination, and rejoiced in his election; because they sec the evil his course is likely to procure for the party, and dare to tell him of it? Many of these men have received wrong and insult and contumely from him and would have borne all in silence, willing to let their personal grievances be swallowed up in devotion to the principles which his position makes him the representative of, until his cupidity, vacillation and mental inferiority had becomes reproach, his name a synonym for ingratitude and the party was threatened with disruption by hundreds whom diagust has driven to the determination of defeating him even if by so doing they insure the election of a democrat. What kind of a “consciousness of right doing” prompted Packard to vote against the expulsion of Mr. Butler, of Tennessee, from Congress after that individual had been convicted of selling cadetships and had tendered his resignation because of that conviction? If such are the fruits of a “consciousness of right doing” the Enterprise need not stop with insinuations, but may boldly annoonce that wc are in favor of “dethroning from his position” not only Blr. Packard, but every other public man, irrespective of party, whose senac of honor is so blunted, whose moral perceptions are so dimmed and whosp “consciousness of right”

is »o perverted that ho can glory in the commission of acts that unbiased men consider to be his shame. t— * The Kcnlland OuzeUS Tiaa improved wonderfully of late upon its arguments in favor of the gen- j tlemau who presented it with aj country post-office. Heretofore in J its replies to our allegations that General Packard is not competent to creditably perform tliC duties of congressman; that he is an unsuccessful parly leader, that his nomination would prove an incubus to tho ticket; that lie is a luxury too expensive for the parly to keep in travelling order (it having cost us over SSOO to pay his expenses in the last campaign); the Gazette lias replied, “you are mad because you didn’t get a post-office” “disappointed ambition,” etc., but now it has invented an argument ns convincing as it is rare—one worthy the object for which it is intended, being calculated to restore harmony, and unity, and good feeling—an argument that will undoubtedly re-noin-inate and re-elect the man it has so disinterestedly supported ever since it has enjoyed the emoluments of his benifieencc. An argument easy to learn, easy to remember, easy to repeat, and well adapted to the capacity of young children and new beginners. It is composed of three letters and is a— lie. Stick to it well, Mr. Postmaster, have it patented, print it in colors, and carefully preserve it for the benefit of posterity.

R. S. Dwiggins, President of the Fort Wayne & Pacific ’Railroad Company, and J. E. Abbott, President of the Construction Company, who have the building of the road under contract, started to Fort Wayne on Tuesday to sec what assistance the people of that city would render this new and important line of road. They have assurances from wealthy citizens of Fort Wayne that they will raise $200,000 there; if so it will place the completion of the'enterprise beyond a doubt, and work will be commenced by the Ist of June, proximo.

An election has been ordered by the Hoard of Commissioners of Pulaski county to be held 4th of June, upon a proposition to raise a tax of $42,000 in aid of the Fort Wayne & Pacific Railroad. “Ilail! gentle spring !” —Plymouth Republican. Gentle spring is all well enough, but we prefer ours without any bail in it. The Anderson Herald tells of a candidate for Auditor in that neck of woods who spells God Almighty “goddlc initie.” Lynch him.

Hon. Anson Wolcott, of White.

“We know' of no man man in the district who is Mr. Wolcott’s superior in point of ability. * * * The public sentiment of White county seems to he emphatically in favor of Wolcott.” —Munticello Herald. * * * “Mr. Wolcott is a strong man, of much experience, and not inferior in point of talents to any other statesman in the district, — Blr. W. would take rank at once with the abler members of the House of Representatives, if elected. Much ill-founded prejudice has been attempted to be excited against Blr. W. by rivals , whose real objection to the man is his greater ability.” —Michigan City Enterprise. “11l this congressional district where the democracy have very little to expect, it is natural for the voters of that party who desire to have the district creditably represented in Congress, to feel some interest in the nominations of the opposite party. if * if * * *

“The Hon. Anson Wolcott, whoso name has been mentioned in connection with the office of Congressman, is by far the most competent gentlemen whose name will be before the Republican convention.— Prepossessing in appearance—unassuming and polished in his manners—possessing that rare quality, common sense, he will make an officer of whom the voters of the 11th District will have no reason to he ashamed.”— Kentland Democrat.

The attention of croakers and grumblers against the Republican party and the Administration, is respectfully called to the fact that the reduction of the public debt for tbo month of April was $11,697,700. This is a record worthy of and noble party, and should silence the slanders that are constantly being uttered by fault-finders, soreheads and Copperheads. Let well enough alone.— lnd. Journal. - . ■ <y -

A railroad from Rensselaer here, and from here to Michigan City, or from Lowell to Bfichigan City, passing through here, would, either of them, be of incalculable value to our county. Directcortimunication with the lake on the North, and the Ohio River on the South, would add five cents to the value of every bushel of grain raised in the county. Valparaiso Vidette.

Letter from Terre Haute.

, May Ist, 1870. Eihtous Kenshki.akk Union: 1 wish to lull the attention of the renders of the Rensselaer Union to the Normal Kchool nt Torre Haute. This institution Went into operation on the Bth of January with twenty-one students, the larger number of w hom were from Terre Haute and vicinity. The present number enrolled is sixtyone. The following are tho counties represented and the number of students from each: Vigo 27, Dekalb 3, Wayne 3, Clay 2, Jasper 2, Morgan 2, Vermillion 2, Rush 2, Green 2, Miami 1, Marion 1, Putnam 1, Johnson 1. Xnox 1, Floyd 1, and ilia State of Illinois 6. Two teachers have resigned: Prof. Olcott and Kate Sprague. The hisloVy of the school so far has not been all its friends could wish, yet it has not disappointed expectations. I venture to say that no well informed person in Indiana is ignorant of the existence of this Normal School, yet very few have any clearly defined ideas as to what it is to bej nor perceive the benefits that arc likely to grow out of it.— The scope and design of the Normal School can be no better stated than in the words of the President when stating the attniments necessary on the part of a teacher: “lsf? A thorough knowledge of the facts and principles to be taught; for how’ shall the teacher teach what he does not understand? *‘2nd. A knowledge of the powers and capacities of the human soul, the order of their development, their functions and products, gained not from books merely, but from observation; for how shall a teacher cultivate the powers of observation when he knows not the difference between them and the powers of conception and reflection? How cultivate the memory when he knows not the quality of a good memory nor the condition of its culture? Row train the imagination when he knows not the difference between it and the will? llow toueli the sensibilities—the springs of action—when he knows not the difference between them and tho will?”

The analysis of a given subject by which is ascertained the forms of mental action brought into exerciso in producing the science, and from which the order and method ' of presenting it to the mind of the | pupil is determined. I would call 1 the science of teaching and skill in t # 1 the practice of this science, the art ol teaching. Hence, the teacher should possess three attainments: A knowledge of the subjects, ; knowledge of the soul and body of man, and knowledge of the science and art of teaching. Such is an outline comprising rhe entire field of human knowledge, essential to our welfare, that the Normal School is prepared to give. That the faculty is abundantly able to carry out the designs of the institution and j the ideal to be realized can not ad- ! mit of a single doubt. _ j Of President Jones I cannot ' speak in terms of too high praise. ! A man in the prime of life, of rare ; intellectual endowments, a ripo experience, faithful and devoted to his trust, the School can not be otherwise than safe in bis hands.— I think that I express the sentiment of every' student here when I say that Le meets our ideal of a perfect teacher.

Prof. Bosworth is said to have few equals in the State as a teacher of natural science. , Geo. P. Brown, Professor of Mathematics, is too well known to need a word of comment. Julia Newell and Mary Bruce are each mistresses of their particular departments. ‘ Many teachers are under the impression that if they avail themselves of the advantages proffered by the Normal School they will be compelled to teach a certain length of time within the Stale, whether it is practicable for them to do so or npt. This is a mistaken idea; no such pledge is asked or given.

ZIMRI DWIGGINS.

Fulton county has decided to appropriate' $60,000 to aid the completion of the Fort Wayne & Pacific Railroad through that county. It is asserted thst the other counties on the line bf the road through the State, will undoubtedly vote their respective shares, and that work will be begud by the Ist of June. There seems now', little doubt as to its completion, and that at no very remote date. When finished it will furnish the shortest route between New York and Omaha, and is desliued to become one of the great through East and West lines of the Fort Wayne extends it a cordial welcome and will give it, some, by no means insignificant, feeders. —Fort If 'aunt Gazette.

Meeting of the Logansport Presbytery at Remington.

The Presbytery of Logansport in connection with the Old School branch of the Presbyterian church, met in Remington Tuesday evening, April 2(Jth.*' This Presbytery is composed of llie Ministers and one ruling Elder from each of the churches within a district of country extending from Rochester, Fulton county, on the north, to Kokomo on the south, and lrom Peru on the east, to Goodlaml on the west.— There were iu attendance fifteen Ministers and twenty ruling Elders, being an unusually full attendance. The opening sermon was preached by Rev. Win. Grccnough, ot Logansport. Rev. W in. Torrence, of Frankfort, was chosen to preside as Moderator, and Rev. Win. Kontz, of Lexington, as Clerk. The Presbytery closed its session Wednesday evening. Many of the churches reported an unusual religious interest during the past winter with large additions to their membership. The usual business of such church courtß was attended to, the details of which would not, perhaps, interest the public generally. The Academy at Logansport, in charge of Rev. Dr. Matthews, and under the care of the Presbytery, was reported as in a very prosperous condi-

tion.

A Democrat suggests that the Democratic Congressional Convention in the Sixth District be held on the 4tli of July. What has the Fourth of July done, that it should undergo such desecration?—lndianapolis Journal. A depth of 270 feet had been reached in sinking the salt well at Terre Haute on Saturday night— Four veins of coal had been passed. A lady from llie country postponed her return home from a visit to New Albany, Saturday, m order to sec a curiosity—a funeral—she having never witnessed one.
