At stated meeting of the Sons OF Temper
ance of Bucna Vista division, NO.2G, held Sal
urday evening, March rs, 1867, committee OF
live having been appointed ia draft u preamble
and resolutions expressive OF the feelings OF
this division on the death of our brother, Mil
ton r. HAWTHORN, when the following were
adopted:
WhTsas, Through the dispcnsltion of an
All Wise and oycrruling Providence, we have
experienced a deep and poignant loss in the
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS. ofOur beloved brother, Milton
r. Hantnorn, whose death has left void in
our circle rot easily filled; therefore,
ResOlred, That we record with unlcignUd
grief the death of our beloved brother, and as
II token OF respect, our division be clothed in
mourning for the space of three months.
ResOirtf, That while we humbly bow with
submission to the will OF Him who docth all
things well, We cannot refrain from acInOwl-
cdging the many virtues that endcared our
brother to us. Having had an ardent love for
the cause, he was among the first to Join us in
pushing forward the noble cause Of Temper
ancc, and IN securing Il permanent organization
in this place, since which time up to the COM
mcnccmCut of his illness, he has continued an
active, energetic, and useful member of the
order. As a christian, he was calm, but stead
lastly devoted to the cause Of his Master. AS
u friend and associate, he was gentle, kind i,
cordial, alablr, and accommodating, having
hut few equals. g To know him was to love
him."
Res0lred, That while we oXtcl his many viz
tues, we deeply sympathiSe with the friends
and relations Of our deceased brother, and TO
his mother and brothers and sisters, we would
point them for consolation and hope, to that
meek and lowly Savior that their son and
brother sincerity adOrcd for many years, and ON
whose breast he leaned his head in his diving
hour.
Restored, That the foregoing preamble and
resolutions be published in the Delalcare Re-
publican and the Deiltcare County Republican,
and Il copy sent TO the family Of the deceased.
We mourn Our loss, dear brother,
When at our hall we meet;
Where shall we find another
To ill thy vacant seat!
- No more we hear the welcome sound
OF thy remembered voice,
That scattered gladness all around
Aud bid us all rejoice!
Yet still we hope that We shall meet
When our probation IS DER,
In heaven our brother dear to greet,
Where partings are no more.

In your notice of case before Esquire Blu
zine against Teacher OF the Public School
near the Kenneth Road, whose name you mis-
tulie as Harriet Peck you are certainly in cr-
ror in stating tho switch to have been heavy
enough to baclien the child's hips and sides.
II Justice Bu2inc gave the statement, he is as
correct in the facts as in the name, Tor there is
no teacher Of that name in the Public Schools
The child when required to go into room in
which disorderly children are reasoned TO COM
pliancc, threw himself down upon the floor in
ungnvcrnihlc fury, and kicked and fought with
all lis strength and at last was brought 10 sub
mission by q few strokes ola small SWITCH
The switch could produce no wound of the
skin. The PRINCIPAL of this School who in-
tcied thts-ranishmcnt, is one of our most u.s.
trcIncd teachers. Bishop Lee who las been
on the visiting committee of that School two
terms, xix mcltls each, speaks of her capacity
for government, her midness and iirmness in
high praise. lie aud Benjamin S.Clarll are now
the visiting committee. They would allow no
child to be abused. But instead Of applying to
them, ESanirc Bu2ine is applied to and he
having had something to answer in our city
court iphiS dsttstc, sends tho case tn New
Castle, invasion OF our city government, less
expensive and better adapted to investigate
such cases,
There are in our Public Schools children
who are under no government at home and
the parents Of such children seem determined
to break mp the School by courses which will
prevent our obtaining good teachers. For
there must hc government Of n School; and il
nJustice of the Peace will Interfere whenever
there IL case of punishment, competent
teacher will accept the place. The visiting
committees of these Schools are the best Sc
curity people can have against improper pun
ishmcnts They will never fail to see Justice
done and that not in breaking down The sr-
der OF tie Schools, in which all have great
concern, hut in sustaining that order with full
redress of wrong. U.

RAILROAD IN CuANCERY- STglKa or ENqi-
NEEns AND 0rERAryEs-E NpsGGu ON TuN
TRAiNs.-The Ganandaigua and Niagara Falls
Railroad Company has for some time been in a
bad way, financially. The road does not paw
running expenses, and consequently there are
no funds 10 meet constantly Ucrruiug obligl-
tons. Engineers, lircluen, conductors, brake
men, trackmcn, Ne, have been unable to ret
their pay regularly, and of course have l;,lt dis
posed TO regard themselves as not very well
treated people. They have continued 10 serve
the company, however, until the present week.
in expectation Of getting their dues ut some
time, Last week their .lAuulTy WAGES were
pad up. Seeing that matters became worse
rather than better, they resolved iIpon Il grand
strike to compel the payment of what is duo

Falls, the engines Were put into the engine
houses, one after the other. and the doors clos
cd When the time came for the trains to de-
part, there were no engines ready to draw them
and no one was permitted 10 take thim out,
the engineers and iirrmcm standing sentry ut
the doors, and torbidding the iron horses to
emerge.
The directors made q proposition to settle
with the engine drivers and iiremon, and pay
back wages; but these made common cause
with the other employees, and rejected the
overture On Thursdty u train arrived ut
Canandaigua from Elmira, having some sixty
passengers destined for the Falls, who had
paid through. The engineerand cunductOrwerc
induced to take their train through. When
they arrived at the Falls, the locomotive was
put into the engine house with the others, and
not allowed to return.
The men who had taken the train on returned
via the Central road to Clnanlaigua. In this
condition things have remained since We'd
