SCHOOL ETHICS FOR PARENT AND CHILD.
No. s.

II respect Of property is required from pu-
pills. The rights of all must be respected
This is the grand principle that extends through
out the whole theory OF civil governme nt.--
Our laws aim at the protection of all our citizens,
together with their rights. Civil government
finds its end in the establishment and conserva-
ton OF public freedom. Although the pupils may
not strictly be considered citizens, yet they are
under the direct authority and control OF state
government, and the same respect for the laws
of our country will be required from them, as
from the legal citizens of the country.
Natural laws have the penalties for their in
fringement affixed. No law OF nature can be
transgressed without the subject incurring the
penalty affixed thereto. He who would act the
gormandizer and use bis stomach as sort OF
curiosity pouch, must submit to the result, and
be dysPeptic. The transgression of a civil
law, too, is met with punishment. Obedience
then TO both natural and civil laws is required for
our personal good. There is, however, no.
bier reason for obedience TO law than the fear
of the penalty thereby incurred; We should O.
bey laws because 1t is right for us TO do so be-
cause it is duty. The same principles upon
which the rectitude of state authority is based,
underlie the whole theory OF school government,
and obedience to those laws aud principles
should in both cases be because it Is a duty, be-
cause II is a moral requirement.
Pupils should be made TO understand that
they have no authority whatever TO violate The
rights and property OF others; that each ones
rights must be preserved inviolate. All their
proPenslties for mischief or pleasure must be re-
strained when those propensities in any way in
terfere with the rights of the community, or
with the rights and privileges of any particular
portion OF it. 1t is evident that such must be
the case liz order that the ultimate end of civil
government may be subserVed.

A SHAMEFUL AFFAIR.-The Venango Spec
tator, published at Franklin, gives US the fol-
lowing account of one OF the most reckless, bru-
tai ard fIendSh outrageS that have yet resulted
from the lawless attempts TO crush freedom OF
speech. To what state must community have
arrived that tolerates such an atrocious ,condi-
ton of public sentiment as this report shows
Bad as It is, though, it is but an index of the n-
dex OF the inevitable results that must follow
the continued teaching OF the abominable senti-
ments that have been Justified into the public
mind OF late, by the leaders and presses of the
Republican party. The Spectator says
ga gentleman, whose veracity is undou5ted,
informs US OF the particulars ofan outrage COM
mtted upon the family of Mr.. Jacob Dietrich,
of Pinegroye township, on the 22d Of June last
The substance OF our Informant'S statement is,
that on that day there was pole raising at Cen
treville, near Mr.. DIS. residence, IN which all
PARTIES assisted, and that all things proceeded
in harmony uatI about 5, P. NJ. About that
time two boys, one son of Mr.. Dietrich, COM
menced renewing an old quarrel, which result
te6 in several other persons taking part against
young Dietrich. A crowd Of persons, several
Of whom were armed, chased young Dietrich to
his fathers house. On arriving al the fence, in
front OF the house, several OF the mob seized
Mr.. D., across the fence and tore his shirt from
his back. Some 'half dozen then crossed the
fence and commenced an attack upon this one
unarmed man. During this melee portion OF
the gang entele ed the house, one oil whom was
scaIded by Mrs. D., and another knocked
down by stove lid in the hands Of her son.
They seized Mr.. Dietrch's gun, which they
brought out and broke 10 pieces on the fence.
A gun was pointed at him by one OF the mob
and bis life saved by man knocking the gun
aside as it exploded.
ssMr. Dietrich, with the weapons that ma
ture gave him, drove the mob fIom his house.
He is a stout man and was in fair way OF whip
ping the whole party. The leader of the ann
ed portion of the mob then ordered his men TO
load with ball. Mr.. Dietrich, informed OF his
danger, made his escape from the back part OF
his house and ran towards the woods, a short
distance. While running, some ten shots were
fired at him, but he fortunately was not hit
After Mr.. DIS escape the mob again entered
The house, seized Mrs. d. and told her the only
way to save her life was to come out and carry
he flag they had with them. They threatened
10 kill her if she refused, and TO burn the house.
The mob, however, dragged her out, forced the
flag into her hands, ond compelled her TO carry
it. They then took their departure, threatening
10 return and sweep all the Democrats from
Pinegrove township"

PHYSICAL EDUCATION.
KAPPA.

The grand problem OF educators seems 10 be-,
how best to train the mind, soul, and body at
the same time. An intellectually educated
man. without corresponding degree of moral
culture, is likely TO degrade bis mental acquire
ments. A man well trained in morality and
plety, can accomplish far less in weak and
diseased body, than IN strong and healthy
one. A man, if he be physically educated, and
be so deficient in mental and moral requisites,
as to use his physical powers for the mere pur-
pose of peIting ant knocking the breath out of
every antagonist he meets, is of but little use TO
society. The whole man must be educated,
that our intelligent men may not be infdels
our moralists and dIyines, not such as are Too
feeble to do good, our physical and muscular
men, not bullies and prize fighters.
The great fault of our present system of
education seems to be, that mind, soul, and bo-
dy are each trained separately. The teacher
too often thinks he performs his whole duty,
when he merely trains the mind, the divine,
when he presents food for The soul, and the
gymnast, when he prepares his student for the
prize ring.
The great want of common schools, as well
as higher institutions of learning, Is system of
physical culture, to be united with mental and
moral training. 1t is a significant fact, that as
our school terms and other educational advan-
tagNs gradually increase, so also does the num-
Der of curved spines, consumptives, and prema-
ture graves. The midnight student is not the
one who makes his mark in the world, for the
reason that be becomes so worn down by con-
tinual study and so little physical training, that
he never lives long enough. 1t would De nom
sense to suppose that this is caused by too much
brain work. II is the legitimate result ofa neg
lect to properly train the physical powers in
connection with the mental attributes and NOR
al propensities. When study and active exer-
else are Interningled, the result is benefciaI
and wholesome but when this is not the case,
the one faculty, by preponderance Of culture,
must overbalance and overturn the good of the
other. Heretofore the body seems to have been
very much neglected, and the whole attention
of the teacher seems TO have been turned TO the
culture of the mind. AS a consequence, our
race has become celebrated for its number of
delicate, chalk-cheeked ladies, and for its thin
fingered, feeble, feminine specimens of the male
portion of humanity. Visit our cemetrIes and
the cold, silent tombstones tell you but too
plainly that the great number OF those who
sleep the long, majestic sleep of death were
consigned 10 their cold and narrow beds of earth
long before the middle watch OF the night of
mans sojourn upon the earth.

Chronicle just forty years ago. A reward of fifty
guneas failed 10 bring out its authorship, nor is j
yet known
Behold this ruin Twas a skull,
Once of ETHEREAL spirit full,
t4This narrow cell was life's retreat,
III This space was Thoughts mysterious seat,
What beauteous visions filled this spoi7
What dreams ofpleasure, long forgot
Nor Hope, nor Love, nor Joy, nor Fear
Have left one trace of record here.
O. Beneath this mouldering canopy
Once shone the bright and busy eye;
But, start not at the dismal void
If social love that eye employed;
II with no lawless fire it cleaned,
But through the dews of kindness beamed,
That eye shall be forever bright
When the stars and sun are tsunk in night.
Within this hollow cavern hung
The ready, .wift and tunefu tongue,
If falsehood's honey it disdaned,
And where it could not praise, was chained
II bold in Virtues cause il spoke,
Yet gentle concord never broke
This silent tongue shalt plead for thee
When time unveils Eternity.
Say did these fingers delve the mine 2
Or with its envIed rubes shine
To hew the rock or wear the gem,
Can little now avail to them
But if the page of truth they sought,
Or comfort TO the mourner brought,
These hands richer need shall claim
Than all that wait on Wealth or Fame.
Avals it whether bare ,or shod,
These feet the path of duty trod 2
If from the bowers of Ease they fed
To seek aflction's humble shed
If grandeur's guilty brlbe they sputned,
And home TO virtues cot returned,
These feet with Angels wings shall vie,
And tread the palace OF the sky.
