Educate Your Children.

If "a little learning is dangerous
thing" We know no better way to cure the
evil than to increase the dose. Unlike
physical maladies, the larger the proscrip-
ton and the oftener repeated, the better
hopes Of the patient; though it often hap
pens that " the family" are slow to believe
it in advance. The oracular precept
" Drink deep, or taste not" is of very
doubtful orthodoxy; especially if its appli.
cation be not confined within the limits OF
its original strict construction. On the
contrary, let every one draw as deeply-be
it much or little-from the fountain of
learning, as their 'length Of rope will
permit, and quaff its refreshing waters as
often and largely as thirst may prompt, or
opportunities offer. There is no danger of
a surfeit; and if there was, rer'etion, in
such a case, is better than emptiness, and
even a homeopathic morsel better than
none at all.
We may be allowed, therefore, to ask
our readers-all of them who may need
word Of seasonable admonition and we
fear their name is nearer "Legion' than
it ought to be-to take a sober second
thought upon this subject, and see if they
are doing as much for the proper education
Of their children and wards as they might
or ought to do. A bountiful harvest has
just been gathered in, and material COM
forts are abundant and cheap; and if the
"price of wheat" and the vicssitudcs of
finance and politics, are not in all respects
as satisfactory as every body could wish, so
much better the opportunity to call halt,
take fresh reckoning about matters and
things in general, and home affairs in par
ticular. 1t may enable one to realize more
clearly that there are other things under
the sun to be accomplished besides sowing
and reaping, and gathering into barns, or
eternally delving like muck worms for
money-that there are higher duties, con-
nected with higher destiny; involving
weightier responsibilities, with heavier
penalties and more cheering rewards.
We need not expatiate here upon the
benefits Of good education, for in this
enlightened day it surely need not be for
maly prored that the educated man, in
any position in life, has greatly the advan-
tagc of him who has been less fortunate in
his early opportunities And now while
the world is rushing on with sweeping
progress that accomplisbcs more in twelve
month than was tformerly done in centu.
ry, this difference of advantages is more
plainly visible in its results, and the dis

The Farmer.
The State Fair.

We trust our brethren of the press will
direct attention to the great State Fair that
is to commence at Harrisburg, on the 29th
October New York has just had l00, 800
visitors at her fair at Rochester. The
young State of OHIO has Just had $4,000
visitors, at her fair last week at Columbus,
and why can not the old Keystone have
as great a congregation at Harrisburg?
We invite all our farmers to come. but
above all We invite those having good
horses, cattle, hogs, sheep, poultry, agri-
cultural implements, &c, to bring them
along so as to make the exhibition as at
tractive as possible. Every inventor of
agricultural implements should have speci
mems here for exhibition and sale; and
last but not least, let the fair daughters
and mothers of Pennsy ylvania send in their
handi work of whatever nature or kind it
may be, as there are premiums for large
class of household manufactures, and
where premiums may not be awayded-di-
plomas and certificates will be given, tia.

Kingston, Jamaica, arrived at New York
IN a'arday morning with 574 passengers,
sI,s5. $50 in gold dust, and the California
mails to September l5rh-the news is
consequently two weeks later.
Among her passengers were Senator
Gwinn, and seven persons who have made
100000 each in the mines.
The latest returns of the election show
majority of 422 for Reading, the Wing
candidate for Governor.
The division Of the State still attracts
considerable discussion. The members
elected TO the Legislature from the southern
counties, are pledged to aid the movement
From reliable returns, says the San
Francisco Herald of the 18th. the Wings
have elected two State Senators and the
Democrats eleven, one Wing and five Dem
ocratic Senators hold over. The Senate
consists Of IS members.
To the Assembly IA Wings, rs Demo-
Gratis, and two Independents are elected.
The House consists of 63 members, of
which 50 is majority. The counties to
be heard from will undoubtedly give the
Democrats clear majority. That party
will then have both branches of the Leg
slature, and the L. S. Senator. Mcssrs.

elebted to Congress.
The gold diggings continue to yield rich
returns The aurifcrous quartz veins are
being worked with great success. In the
dry diggings the miners are only waiting
for the rainy season, to take out large
amounts of gold.
The news from the whaling feet is most
disastrous. Several vessels have been lost,
including the Aramalta, and Henry Thom-
son, Of New London, and the Arabella,
New Bedford, and America, of New Bed
ford.

The Election Over.

The election is over, and the public
mind, which has been agi'ated on the sub.
ject for So many weeks, will now subside
into quiet. Newspapers from the interior
will no longer reach us, covered with long
black letters; hand-bills will no longer
stare us in the face from every wall nor
will Chestnut street, below Sixth, lie in.
passlble from the crowds of eager poll
ticians.
We hear certain mercurial persons, v nc
love excitement as topers love wine, COM
planning that the result is so quickly
known,and regrcttins the "good old times"
before telegraphic wires were invented, or
railroads knewn, when the community was
kept in suspense for week. We hear
others, who expected tighter contest,
lamenting that things were not as they
were in lS4s, when the struggle was so
close that every day appeared to alter the
result. The elaborate tables of former
majorities, with counties alphabetically
arranged, which these epicurcs in election
had prepared, are now useless; and their
owners mournfully lay them aside, with
many sigh. Well, so goes the world. If
the amateurs in excitement bewail the
speedy determination of the suspense, the
successful candidate, We trow, does not.
And, perhaps, even the defeated governor,
since he was to be defeated; is secretly
thankful that he has been 'put out of his
misery SO soon.-[ Philad. Bulletin.

Abbot Lawrence in Ireland.

The London Times is not particularly
pleased at the enthusiasm with which the
American Minister has been received
everywhere in Ireland. 1t explains the
public feeling there, by asserting that the
Irish, one and all, contemplate emigration
to the United State, and that they are
curious TO behold dignitary of their in.
tended country. The tour of Mr.. Law
renee in Ireland, it accounts for, on the
presumption that he desires to see the
mode of life among the Irish, in their
native land. We think the Times might
have explained the journey of our minis
ter, and the popularity which has attended
it, without going so far for reasons. Has
it forgotten the great famine in ireland,
which, though brought on by the hand of
God, was aggravated by the oppression of
the English race? Has it forgotten the
generosity with which the United States
stepped forward land out of her abundance,
supplied the wants of the famishing Irish?
If the Times has forgotten tLis, the sons
Of Ireland have not; and hence the en-
thusiasm which has made Mr.. Lawrence's
tour triumphal march. Ofall people in
lhc world. the Irish have suffered most.
Of all people in the world. they possess
the most grateful hearts to those who as
sst them with relief. In honoring Mr.
Lawrence, they honor America. They
love the United States, because it has
commisera;ed and assisted them, and
because it offers them an asylum where
they Can live as freeman; and they hate
England because, for seven centuries, she
has oppressed them.

Distressing.

On Thursday evening last, an insane
woman, by the name of Rhoda Champbell,
was burnt to death in the Wmsport Jail
by her clothes taking fire. She was in
the care of man from another county,
who was taking her to the Insane Asylum
at Harrisburg, and by the kind permission
of the Sheriff of this county, was lodged
in one of the Jail rooms for the evening
She had been in but shor; time, however,
before her clothes were discovered to be on
fire. The POOR sufferer made no alarm
herself, and there were but few shreds
left of her clothing when found. She was
literally burnt to chrisp, and survived
but short time after the occurrence

Close of the Worlds Fair.

The Exhibition, at the Chrys:al Palace,
closed on Saturday, the llth inst When
this great fair was frst projected, the were
many skeptics as to its success; lu. the
result has proved one of the greatest tri-
umphs of its kind, which ever was achieved
The expenses of this gigantic undertaking
have been more than reimbursed from the
fees paid for admissisn; while the mutual
feeling of acquaintanceship, which it has
introduced among the principle citizens of
different nations, has been highly beneficial
to the cause Of civilization. At first, this
country gained little credit by her contri-
buttons, but those arose from attention
being directed to her more elegant articles
of manufacture, in with she yainly tried
to surpass the old Void, instead of those
useful implements, of which the reaping
machine was one, in which she stood with
ont a rival. Time, however, rcmedied
this omission, and brought - notice what
had been overlooked. No country, in
consequence, has gained as much credit,
at the Worlds Fair, as the United States.
The Exhibition indirectly led to another
triumph for America; we allude to that
wor, in ship-bGilding and rigging, by
Commodore Stevens Yacht. Without the
Worlds Fair, it is probable that the Yacht
would never have visitco England, in
which event Europe would sill haze yield
ed to Great Britain that palm of superi,r-
i'y in ship-building, which is now trans
ferred to the United States.
The great question now is--what is to
become of the Chrystal Palace. The des-
tiny of this wonderful structure is not vet
determined, but the probability is tha. it
will be removed from Hyde Park, even if
erected elsewhere. The ali-powerfui Eng
lish aristoeracy eoyet their old drives,
beneath and around the elms which now
stand enclosed in the transept, and demand
the destrcution of the building in eonse-
quence and it is generally believed that
their inhGeDee will prevail, 80 far at las.
