The Presidents Proclamation.

President Fillmore has issued and forwarded to
Boston proclamation, relative to the recent riot
among the colored population in that city, for the
release of an alleged fugitive. 1t calls upon all
citizens whether civil military, to assist in quel
ling and suppressng such combinations and directs
that prosecution be Immediately entered into "a
gainst the offenders, and that all such as aided,
betted or assisted them, or shall be found to have
harbored, or concealed such fugitive, contrary to
law, be Immediately arrested and proceeded with
according to law,
The President, by thus early directing attention
to this matter, has shown his characteristic prompt
ness, in the discharge of the high responsibilities
entrusted to him, as the Chief Executive magis-
trate of the government. His conduct will elicit
the unqualified condemnation of every good citizen
throughout the country. No set of men, of any
color, have right to trample under foot the legal
ly constituted enactments of government, and
set its authority at defiance. They are bound to
respect the laws Of their country, and reference
to any higher law will excuse them from implicit
obedience, so long as they remain unrevoked by
the proper authorities

Penn Mutual Life Insurance Co.

ScoTT, agent for the e Penn Mutual Life Insur-
dnce Company" of Philadelphia, will be at the
American Hotel in this Borough, for few days,
where he will give all requisite information, and
take applications for those wishing to effect Insur
ance in said Company.
Here is an excellent and convenient opportunity
for persons to obtain an insurance upon their
lives in Company, of which much can be said in
its favor, as it is undoubtedly the best in the coun-
try, being established upon principles alike just
and satisfactory to all parties. We have several
instances at hand fully attesting the prompness Of
this Company in paying the amount insured.

By a table published in the Journal, it appears
that the amount of capital invested in the Coal
business in Schuylkill County is $2,527, ,s62-
more than two millions of which are invested by
individuals, who protest strongly against the ncor
poration of any Company for mining purposes in
the County. The number of hands employed is
GAL monthly wages, $l49,e13; annual product
81 ,599,549.

Common School Report.

We are indebted to the polite attention of A. L.
Russell, Secretary of the Commonwealth, and Su-
perintendent of the Common Schools, for an early
copy of his report to the Legislature upon the
schools of the State 1t is forcibe and well writ
ten paper, aud its views and recommendations
evnce thorough application to, and understand
ing of this vitaly important and interesting SUBJ
ject After reviewing the history and progress of
Legislative action in Pennsylvania in reference to
public schools, but especially the enactments crea-
ting and providing fund as the basis of system
OF common schools, he proceeds to state what has
already been accomplished, and to point out the
principal defects in the present system and the
most advantageous means for their remedy. The
greatest obstacle in the prosperity of the system
seems to be the incapacity of the teachers which
is one of the necessary consequences of the short
period which a majority of schools are kept open;
for persons will not qualify themselves for teaching
and resort to it as business unless it will afford
adequate compensation and permanent employment
To remedy this defect the appointment ofa capable
superintendent for each Congressional district is
recommended, such officer to be charged with the
duty of establishing and supervising teachers
seminary for thorough instruction In the common
school branches, and in the art of teaching To
these seminaries also night be attached model
schools, and the superintendent should be charged
with the supervision OF all the schools III the dis
trict to deliver lectures subjects connected with
school studes advise committees, assist in the ex-
animation of teachers &C., &c. Such a course, it
is believed, would not greatly add to the expense of
the system, and would secure good schools by pro-
viding good teachers
The report also embraces other recommended
tions, one of which and the most important-the
establishment of States Institution for instruction
In the theory and practice of agriculture-is dwelt
upon with considerable length and with force of
argument that cannot fail to carry conviction of its
utility. Certain alterations in the school law are
also recommended more simple mode of collec-
ting the school taxa reduction of the number of
directors from six and also some provisions by
the Legislature to obviate difficulties which now
too frequently arise in the selection of sites for
school houses. We gather from the report the fol-
lowing interesting statistics showing the operation
OF the system for the year ending lst June, 1850,

STATE Aavicu,tural school.

In the report of A. L. Russell, Esq superlntend-
ent of Common Schools, presented to the Legis-
lature, he devotes considerable part of it to the
Recommendation of a plan for State Agricultural
High School, the establishment ofwhich is strong
ly urged upon the Legislature. We are sure that
it will engage the favorable attention of many of
cur readers, and it deserves the consideration OF
the people of the Commonwealth The creation
of such an institution on the liberal scale and
prehensive plan recommended, could not but re-
suit in great advantages to the numerous class of
agricuIturalists, and through them, to all other
classes and interests in Pennsylvania.
In its general features, the project embarces the
union of large model farm and collegiate in
stution the farm to consist of one thousand acres
of land the college to be adapted to the wants of
five hundred pupils taught by faculty of eight
professors. with corps of sixteen assistants-ex-
elusive of the farm superintendent and various per-
sons employed in domestic and other inferior ca
pact;es. The list of studies proposed, includes
English Literature and Mental Philosophy; Gener-
al History and Political Economy; the German
Language; Mathematics; Natural Philosophy, Me-
chanics and Engineering; Agricultural and Gener-
al Chemistry, with Geology and Botany; Compare
tive Anatomy (to which Natural History should be
added,) and Practical Farming and Rural Engi-
neering.
Of the five hundred pupils, it is recommended
that three hundred should be educated at the ex-
pense of the State, and two. hundred at their per-
sonal cost; the State pupils (three annually from
each representative districD to be selected from
candidates from the common schools. In this par
tcular, the institution would occupy the position
of general High School, to which pupils would
make their way, by merit, from the inferior public
seminaries.
1t is estimated that the first cost of the school
would be, for land buildings and all the necessa-
ry equipments of all kinds, S250,000, and the
gross annual expenditures, for salaries, mainten-
ance, &C. S74,500. Two hundred paying pupils,
at $3.50 each, would produce an annual IN
come of 10000; leaving total nett cost to the
state of S44,50O year-a small sum to be weigh
ed against the vast benefits which the State would
derive from such an institution.

From Billy BOWless.

A letter from South Florida speaks of a late in
terview between Capt. Casey, the United States
Indian agent, and Mr. 'Wilum Bolegs,' as he signs
himself Capt. Casey set forth to Bowlegs the re-
cent action of the Florida Legislature for the re-
moval of the Indians and told him that was his
last chance for peaceable arrangement; that the
United States authorities were his friends, and
would not only see him comfortably removed, and
provided for afterwards, but would pay him well
for going; but if he delayed, the Governor of Flor
ida and his riiemen and long knives would be
down upon him, and drive the whole tribe into the
ocean. Upon this Billy scratched his head, and
thoughtfully inquired if the United States Govern
ment was really his friend and wished him well I!
Capt. Casey replied that there could be no manner
of doubt about that Well, then,' says Billy, if
you are my friends, just you stand still, and me
whip the Governor of Florida and his long knives
d-n quick and, in short, gave Casey to under
stand that he did not value the sovereignty of Flor
ida so much as the shaking of a squirrels tall
This is truly notifying. Billy evidently had not
read the report of the majority committee on Fed
eraI Relations.-I' Tallahassee Sentinel.
