The Ohio Teachers Associa ton.
This Association held very interesting
meeting on 7th and Sth inst. in Delaware
over TWO hund, ed teachers and delegates
were in attendance. The sessions of the
association were employed, in hearing ad-
dresses, on various topics connected with
education, from able SPEAKERS. and The tran
saction OF business. The addresses exhibit
ed thought and study; were very suggestive;
and no teacher listened to them without in
rerest and profit. The proceedings of the
Association and addresses will be publish
ed in the Ohio Journal of Education, of
which, it was stated, only "a copies were
taken in Belmont county. This journal is
published by the Ohio Teachers Associa-
ton, and should be in the hands of every
teacher in Ohio. Teachers of Belmont, are
you doing your part! This is your journal:
sustain it. Only three teachers represent
ed. Belmont county in the Association. Is
this as it should be? You have volunteered
to care for the interests of education in
Belmont county, by assuming the profess
ion of teacher. Are you fulfilling all your
duties, when you do not keep yourselves
informed on the advancement of education,
by reading educational journals and attend
ing Associations like the one above descri-
bed! The discussions on The subject Of
teaching which characterize these meetings
are beneficial, as they elicit thought and
throw light on matters connected with
youthful training. The next meeting of the
Association will be held at Dayton, where
We hope to have larger representation of
Belmon. teachers. ]. E.

influence Of a Physician.

How many thousand faces must have
passed before the doctors eyes; how
many pitiable tales Of woe MIST have been
poured into his ears; what awful secrets
must ind a repository beneath that black
satin waistcoat! We may lie to the law
yer, we may lie to the confessor, but to
the doctor we cannot lie. The murder
must out. The prodigal. pressed for an
account OF his debts, will keep one back
the penitent will hide some sin from his
ghostly director; but from the doctor we
can hide nothing, or we die, He is our
great master here on earth.
The successful tyrant crouches before
him like a hound; the scornfnl beauty
bows the knee, the stern worldly ma
cllngs desperately to him as the anchor
that will hold him from drifting into the
dark sea that has no limits. Tie doctor
knows no rank. The INITIATED beogar in
Saint Celsus's accident ward may be q
more interesting case to him than a sick
Gl.chess. He despises beauty-there
may be. caaker in It's bloom. He despises
wealth-it may be rendered intolerable
by disease. He values not youth-it may
be ripe for the tomb, as hay for the sickle.
He makes light Of power-it cannot cure
an ache o avert d twang Of govt. He
only knows, acknowledges, values, re-
spects two things-Life and Death,

Beginning at Once.

Faith is the starting point of obedi-
ence but what | want is, that you start
immediately-that yon wait not for light
to spiritualize your obediance but that
you work for more light, by yielding a
present obedience up to the present
light which you protestant you stir up
all the gift which is now in you and this
is the way to have the gift enlarged, that
whatever your right hand fndeth to do
in the service to God, you 0 do It with
all your might. And the way fruit Of
uuoi.aigg bis authority, is that you will at
length do it because of your " removal
ted taste. AS youpersevere in the labors OIL
his service, You will grow in the likeness
of his character The grace of holiness
will both brighten and multiply upon you.
These will be your treasures for heaven
too-the delights Of which mainly consist
in the affections and feelings, and connen

-
Not with the warriors sword, whose lightning CLEAN
Defiance in the face of foeman flashes,
Did Livingston contend; his mighty theme
Was Liberty-all else seemed dust and ashes
To hissfar-seeing and prophetic sight.
His only law was Human veal and right.
For this, his speech was fred with eloquencc,
And had a voice that spoke in tones of thunder,
Against Expressions false and vile presencss,
As if 'twould jar his chains foul links asunder,
Such power provoked the hatred and the fear,
Of Briton's hosts, who knew their doom was near.
They knew that Freedom was no empty sonnd,
And that her heroes were like men of iron.
Whatever dangers might their lands surrounds;
Whatever foes their steadfast ranks environ.
They still would battle strongly in her cause,
Uphold her temples, and maintain her laws.
And not less powerful was the patriots pen,
Tipped with a living fame, full warm and CLOWN.
1t reused the zeal and fred the hearts of men,
With ardent love of Freedom OVERLOOKING;
They sprang to arms, as mountain torrents leap,
From rock to rock, and through the vallies sweep.
And well he ruled the State, and served his God,
And blessed his ransomei country, crowned with
glory,
Reaped from the green. the grass-grown fowery
sod,
OF many a battlefield, all red and CORY;
And then at last, he gently sank to rest,
Like an autumnal sun in the far distant West.

answered the solicitations of the Great
American Chieftaip, for men and MONEY
to carry on the war.
But in addition to substantial aid, Cor.
Livingston employed his vigorous pen.
in writing the most keen and pointed
~satires against the British Government,
and its hireling soldiery which stung
them to madness, aud exasperated them
with intense hatred against the writer
This was just what he desired, Just what
he intended for he neither loved nor
feared them, so long as they STOOD in the
light of enemies to his country. So, also,
by his pen, he had the unrivalled faculty
Of .rousing up the courage. and indaming
the ardor Of his fellow-citizens who
took the field with a promptitnde and
celebrity against their enemies, whi;h has
no parallel in histosy. 1t actually made
them invincible in arms; as the fields Of
Monmouth, Trenton, and Princeton, bore
incontestible evidence.
In 1871, he was chosen a member Of
that immortal Convention, which framed
our glorious Constitution. His colleague
was the sound minded and far-seeing
Judge Patterson. For fourteen success
siye years, he presided as Governor over
the State Of New Jersey, adding laurel
after @lanrcl, and honor after honor to
himself, and ccnferriag estimable benefits
upon the State which he governed. His
whole life was one Of incalculable utility
to his country, and Of great blessing to
posterity. In truth, the writer while
p~enning this biographical sketch, with as
much accurate voracity as possible. in
view Of the many excellencies Of his char.
acter, has labored under a feeling allied
to despair, lest he should not do justice
to the subject and no tributary lines
I'm Memoriam," can be adequate to set
forth those eminent virtues in their true
light. For the sake of urfiforaaity, how.
ever, the attempt will be made but not
without time and reflection.
AS Governor Livingston had lived the
life, so he died the death Of the right
eous,n on the 25th Of July, 1890, aged CT
years. His best monument is his able and
imperishablo writings. and the record of
his good deeds, which shall never be eff
faced from the National archives. If all
his political and other writings were COL
lated and carefully published, they would
form one of the best national works now
in existence. We hope some interprising
publisher will undertake the task and
he can do no better service to his coun-
try and the work could not be otherwise
than universally popular.
