We are not addicted TO the wearing OF

prize such gifts very highly, as we r,c.ive
II good many which, like that table" are
really valuable - but we shall neverthe-

No ScHooIs.-Why is it tina. our people
don't support their schools with greater liber-
ality. A short time since two schools, male
and female, were commenced here; but In
two DAYS afterward they were discontinued
on account of not meeting with sufficient
patronage. leaving but one school in the
place, and that one intended for girls and
small boys only.-HuntingdOn Carroll Co..
Pdtfta.
Snch a state of things should not be tole-
rated in Huntingdon, brother HAWKINS. If
you were a Democratic community, 1t
wouldn't be SO bad; but for an Opposition
town of your size to be without schools is
the most remarkable thing on record. The
Huntingdonians ought to be ashamed of
themselves, and we trust they will Give
them about a column and a half of raking
down each week until they are.
