EBENSBURG. PA, THURSDAY JULY 3, 1862.

of the schools are kept open in Summer,
and the other half in Winter. Have had
no means of ascertaining whether this ar
rangement is popular or otherwise in the
district, but it seems to be Objectionable
for the reason that in those districts hav-
ing summer schools the larger pupils,
obliged to work at home at this season of
the year, and having no opportunity to
attend school in winter, lose their school
ing entirely. The better plan would seem
to be to keep all the schools open in sum-
mer for small pupils, and all open in win
ter for large ones, the summer and winter
terms being of the same length.
Effect of the Var. The educational in
terests of the county seem to have been
little affected by the disastrous condition
ofpublie affairs. Last year few districts
had shorter terms than usual, and the sal
aries were smaller in nearly all. This
year Johnstown will have eight months
three more than last year. Conemaugh
eight months-three more than ever be-
fore. Millville eight months-two more
than heretofore. And Summitville six
months-an increase of two months on
the usua! session. All of these districts
pay liberal salaries. The prospect now
is, that next winter all of the schools in
the county will be kept open four months,
and that the term viii be considerably
heightened in many districts that last
year only had their schools open long
enough to secure their Appropriation.
Quite a number Of subscription schools
are now open. Some ten or twelve of
these hare been visited, and the remain
der yiU be as soon as possible. My visi-
tations Of winter schools will commence
about the middle of October, and contin-
ue until every school in the county has
been visited once, and as many twice, as
time will permit.
Public Sentiment. Although in some
districts there is considerable opposition
to the system, and only lukewarm feel
ing in its favor in others, the prevailing
sentiment is favorable, and that opposition
is fast dying away is indicated by the dis
position of the past and present year to
build better houses, pay better salaries,
and have longer school-terms.

Katie's Secret

The sunlight is beautiful mother,
And sweetly the flowers bloom to-day
And birds in the branches of hawthorn
Are caroling ever so gay;
And down by the rock in the meadow
The rill ripples by with song
But, mother, too have been singing
The merriest all the day long.
Last night was weeping, dear mother,
Last night | was weeping alone:
The world was SO dark and so dreary,
Ny heart grew heavy as stone;
l thought of the lonely and lovely
All lonely and lovely was |
l can scarcely tell you why, mother,
But, oh / l was wishing to die
Last night was weeping, dear mother,
But Willie came down by the gate,
And whispered, ''Come out in the moonlight
Eve something to say to you, Kate!'
Oh mother, to hinlf dearer
Than all the wide world beside:
He told me SO, cut in the moonlight
He called me his darling, his bride
SO now I will gather me roses,
To twine in my long braided hair;
And Willie will come in the evening,
And smile when he sees me so. fair.
And out in the moonlight we'll wander,
And down by the old hawthorn tree;
Oh mother | wonder if any
Were ever so happy we?

The Pennsylvania Reserves.

4 correspondent Of the Philadelphia
Press, writing from before Richmond un-
der date of June 10th, says:
On Wednesday last, Gen. M'Cail, with
his splendid division, arrived at his place
in the army of the Potomac. BY gradual
marches he hasacom from White House,
stopping on Tuesday evening, at the cen
tre of Gen. M'Clellan's army, and on
Wednesday, early in the morning, leaving
for the right wing. The extreme right
is the position assigned to the Reserve
Corps, and they will hold Mechanicsville
and the line of the Chickahominy to New
Bridge, relieving Gen. Franklin from
this duty. No body of troops in the army
are superior to the Pennsy lvania Reserves.
Excellent health, strict discipline, and a
complete armament, qualify them, under
the lead of their gallant general, to meet
any number of troops the enemy can bring
into the field. Experienced officers are
in command of all the regiments and COM
panies, and the whole division is capable,
if necessary, of reproducing the gallantry
which, amid gloom and dependency. cleo
trifed the country at the battle OF Dranes-
vile.
Col. Simmons 5th Regiment were on
the march to the picket lines within five
minutes after their arrival at the ground,
and the colonel, whose military ability
has been of invaluable aid on the Poto-
mac and Rappahannock, stationed his SEN
tinels with unequalled skill. 1t were in
vidious to mention any of the officers of
this corps, but perpaps the friends OF
some would be gratifed to learn their
whereabouts. Col. March, of the lst, and
Lieut. Col. M'Candless, Major Woodward,
Adiutant Cross, and host of others, were
all of them on the ground when the corps
arrived, and, though of course somewhat
sunburned and swarthy, wero ready to
perform their duties on an instant call
The Reserves hold most important post
and no one knowing their high character
is fearful of their not holding it well.

Nor CHAT OTHER MANA story
is told of an old Cleveland deacon, who,
just after Lincoln had started on his jour
ney fo- Washington, went to an evening
prayer-meeting, and being somewhat in
a hurry, went down Immediately on his
knees and made an earnest prayer in be-
half of the President of the United States,
asking that God would strengthen him.
and bless him in all his undertakings
Rising from his knees, he left the church,
apparently having an earnest call else
where. Presently he returned in great
hurry, and going down upon his knees
again thus addressed himself: ooh
Lord, it may be as well for me to add as
an explanation to my prayer just uttered,
that by the President of the United
States | meant honest old Abe Lincoln,
and not that other chap who is yet sitting
in the national nest, and for whom don't
care shueks."

a schoolboy that the world was round and
revolved daily on its axis, replied, "Well,
[ don't know anything about its axes, but
| do know that the world don't turn over,
for if it did we should be tumbled off,
and as to its being round, any one can see
that it is a flat piece Of ground, and stands
on a rock"
"But what does the rock stand upon ?"
asked the boy.
"Why, on another one, to be sure"
"But what supports the last ?''
"Why, la! child, it's rock all the way
down ~
This is what might be called solid
