Lamoille newsdealer. [volume] (Hyde Park, Vt.) 1860-1877, 1861-01-18

gsT On Saturday last, DR.. W. c. At
well, of Eden, fell from the scaffold of
his barn, bruising one of MS legs very
severely, and otherwise ihjuring him so
that he is confined to his bed in conse-
quence. Though at first thought to be
dangerously hurt, he is now in fair way
to recover. The Doctor is II years old,
and has never been confined to his
house before by any physical ailment.
Notwithstanding his age he is great
worker, and has, with some assistance in
loading and unloading, hauled So loads
of wood to his door the present winter.
He drove his own team, which consisted
of two pairs of heavy oxen, and the loads
would average over cord each so that
the old gentleman has thus early done what
many younger but less enterprising men
would consider pretty heavy winters
work. The Doctor very much regrets
the necessity of leaving in the woods two
other loads, which were nearly ready to
be taken out.

coin will have more embarrassment in sat
isfying the office seekers than in disposing
of the Secession question.
If any of our readers wants an office, and
has got or is about getting up paper for
his friends to recommend him to the pow
ers that be, our advice is, burn up your
paper don't trouble your friends with it,
seek some honorable employment, and if
you cannot do any better, come and saw
wood for the NeCsdealer, for so may your
days be long and peaceful.

That Pledge about the Forts.

We always supposed that those gentle
men who assumed to speak for South
Carolina in relation to Fort Moultrie did
make distinct pledge that the fort should
not be attacked so long as the military
status of the government troops in the
harbor of Charleston was preserved-only
we considered their pledge to be without
authority worthy Of the respect of the
administration at Washington. But it
now appears that there was no pledge at
all on that side.
A statement--all that there was in the
case-of the South Carolina Representa-
tives has been published, in which appears
that they only expressed their "congic-
lions of what would be the action of the
constituted authorities nor anybody Of
the people of the State of South Carolina"
and that they expressly declined to make
any pledge The Committee on Federal
Relations in the South Carolina Legisla-
ture has reported in justification of these
gentlcmen's course.
1t says that they had no authority to
enter into binding engagement, and the
President knew it, But the Committee
contend--of Course, we had almost said
that the President made solemn pledge
in return, which he has grossly violated
This disposes of the whole matter Of
that alleged pledge Messrs. Keitt & Co.
being in Washington, expressed theil
convictions" to the President that NJ
, attack would be made against Fort Moul
|; trie, on certain conditions being fulfilled
, which they proposed. Secretary Floyd
|, an avowed secessionist, snapped at tn
offer---and then the people were told tina
the Federal Government, in consequence
: of a satisfactory pledge, had pledged itsel

nistrict Schools.

Inquiries are constantly being made
in relation to the powers vested in our
District School Teachers. This subject
is one that claims the candid attention of
every Parent and Teacher. Under the
regulations that at present govern our
common Schools, difficulties are constantly
arising unpleasant in the extreme to all
involved. Now before our common Schools
can become what they are intended to be,
viz, the nurseries in which our children
are to receive the rudiments of a practical
education, together with an occasional
lesson in good manners, which by the way
is too much neglected in almost every
School, there must be either full control
and power to govern and direct the pupil,
coded to the instructor or specific course
for him to follow. Parents fail to take
that interest in their children's studies
that their tender years and crude percep
tons demand. Parental sympathy and
home encouragement are the child's best
instructors. But if, on the other hand
this is wholly neglected, as is too often thu
case, and large number of these undisci
plined " Young Americas are crowded
into small and uncomfortable apartment
with no idea, especially apparent Of wha
they are there for unless it is to see how
much they can violate the Teachers rules
and escape punishment. When this i
the case, and there are such, notwithstand

moral suasion," says one. Very gooc
logic. But there is q point where pur
suasive influence fails, and such are no
hard to discover in more schools than one
In fact nearly every school furnishc
examples of this kind. Then, after al
other means have failed, shall the Teache
resort to corporeal punishment censur
is inevitable. This is Of course disagree

both parent and scholar; "as the twi
is bent the tree inclines." Is there n
alternative?
Let the Teachers in Lamoille Count
bring this subject more conspicuousl
before the public. County Court decisions
and District School meetings are not tn
best means to employ for correcting thi
defect in the present system of commo
School teaching. Teachers, all Civ

ANOTHER ROGUE CAUGHT.--At the May
Term of Lamoille County Court, 1859,
Harper Demmon was indicted for perjury,
and arrested and committed to jail, and
after few weeks succeeded in getting one
Leonard Wood to bail him out, with the
express understanding that Demmon would
attend said cause from term to term, until
it was disposed Of, and save Mr.. Wood
harmless; but contrary to agreement, Mr..
Demmon left the State and took up his
abode in Canada East, and at the last
term of the Court the bonds were called,
and left Mr.. Wood liable to pay the
bail, which was $4,000. Mr.. Wood
therefore procured warrant, and put ii
into the hands Of Sheriff Allen, who went to
Canada and decoyed Mr.. Demmon out in.
