MIR GARNET AND SLAVERY.

Last week for the first time the people of
Middlebury had the opportunity of listening
to Mr. Garnet, the colored preacher who, un-
der the patronage of the third party abolition
lists, is delivering lectures upon slavery thro'
the State. But Mr. G.. said in substance moth
ing more than we have said for four years past,
every week in the columns of our paper, to fix
upon the public mind an abiding detestation
of slavery a iawless act of usurpntion, vio-
lence and tyranny from which humanity and
the prosperity ofthe country demanded the
Nation should be freed.
But it is one thing to depict the denominations
of slavery and another to get rid of them. Mr. c..
seemed to think that the of abolition must
be put immediately upon the track,a should
all the institutions Of church and state which
opposed its progress be crushed into Demisem-
iquavers under its wheels, it must be kept in
energetic operation. There need be no grad

COMMON HOOLS-LEARNING TO
WRITE

The learner when making letters should
never see the copy. The copy should be good
very good. Let him be required to look at
it very carefully, so that the image of each
letter may be exact and familiar in his mind.
Then from this mental impression (the copy
being covered or removed) let him make let
tiers or words exactly corresponding; say, one
letter, one word, or one line, as his instructor
shall direct. Then let him compare with the
copy, and see wherein his letter or word differs.
Be sure that he looks sharp at his copy
and makes his mental image clear,-u
Then, his copy being covered, let him try a.
gain to initiate it with his PEN The whole art
of learning to write consists in acquiring
complete and lively impression of good copies
and ready use of the pen. QMICRQN,

FIRE. The dwelling house, shop granury,
shed, &c. of Mr. Robert Weeks, of Walden,
was burned on Thursday the 18th inst. The
fire caught among shavings in shop attached
to the house where it was built in the morning,
and soon the building was in flames. The
beds in the house were saved, but most of the
furniture was lost. Mr. W. also lost 40 bush
els of wheat, sleigh, harness, &c. Loss es-
timated at about $S00--no insurance. Mr. W.
IS a worthy and industrious man, and the loss
is severe to him.

a man lost his property by fire, it was custom

lief now these companies offer to make good
such losses upon The condition the insured
will agree to pay yearly his proportion Of tho
compauy's losses. Declining to do this, and
a man suffers, little sympathy is felt for him,
particularly by those who are insured. If in.
surances were more general thu Insurance tax
would be lighter upon the insured and the ben.

Could we have a County Society, in a Coun-

be lighter, and assurances more general. The
heavy losses are from large villages, and
when they do occur are often severe.

COITRTLY PROCEEDINGs.

To the understanding Of common men, GER
tain proceedings between our Cabinet and
that of Great Britain, have a shade of the Won
dorful ifnot ridiculous about them. They
may be however, all right and propcr-but they
do most certainly appear very small. II such
have ever previously occurred between two
great nations, We hope somebody will look up
the records, for it would be of some consc-
qucncc TO ascertain if such great minds have
over before grnpplcd in like manner. We re-
fer 10 the correspondence between Mr. Buchan.
an and our minister nj the court of ST. James.
The ridiculous part Of the performance, it
should be remarked, is all on the side Of Mr.
Buchanan and President Polk. 1t is this
MIR Polk hears that England is making some
big guns lie requests Mr. Buchanan to write
to Mr. McLonc and instruct him to call upon
Lord Aberdeen and inquire his LordshiP if
those guns Great Britain is making are 10
shoot us with i..c the United States, His
Lordshjp very coolly replies as ne chooses
not fool enough to say, probably, if they were
thus intended, that such was the fact.
We believe that many of the supporters of
Mr. Polk have found out, by his management
the Oregon question, and some others, that he
is really a weaker man than they took him TO
be There is lack of that high statesman
like conduct which characterzcs the lofty in
tcllcct and which conquers great difficulties.

TAKE CARE oFYOuR CHILDREN. W,

TAKE CARE OF YOUR CHILDREN We
have heard much complaint of the dcfcicn-
cics in the management ofour common schools
Some have gone SO far as to assert that some
of our schools were really damage TO the
scholars, and the money expended to support
them worse than wasted While we doubted
some what, we supposed that there were great
evils existing, but were not prepared 10 be-
lcve that any were so badly conducted as was
shown to be the case at the late teachers meet
ing in this county. Reports were there made,
based upon actual knowledge, which showed
that some of our people who paid taxes to sup.
port schools were defrOuded of their money
nay, worse, that their children were taughf
ignorance rather than knowledge. A gentle
man present stated that he listened the present
winter to a recitation of a class in arithmetic in
one Of our schools where the teacher put the
question from the took--tcn, how many times
hreo'--and it was answered by the young
scholar, thirty! and it was passed off thus an
swercd as right. Other schools he said to his
knowledge were conducted in manner no bet
ter than this.
lfsuch is the case in any of our schools, the
people who pay school taxes are robbed of their
rights-for it is their right to have the value
received for the money they pay--and some
thing should be done to correct these evils
All such teachers should be put to school rath-
er than in school house to teach And how
shall the rights of the people, and the interests
of the children be protected if somebody does
not oversee our schools and see that ignorant
pretenders and impostors kept from the
school houses and we'll qualified teachers put
in?
1t is said that, as the states on all sides
of us have committees to examine teachers,
those that are rejected by them as unqualified,
flock into our state, offer their services cheap
and crowd out our own qualified teachers
Hence, we'll as to guard against the impo-
sitions of such as are unqualified among us,
some plan should be devised to meet the ext
gency. Against such a plan none but those
conscious of their unfitness to teach will
raise objections; but it is not to be presumed
that they shall be allowed to rob the taxpayers
without rendering any equivalent; or our chill
dren of their right ofbeing taught in a proper
manner. If there are remedies provided u
gainst these evils, let them be applied
