For the Gazette
Mif1in County Justice VS.. School Teach.
erS.

Mr.. Editor The verdict of the County
Court held last week. in the case of Robert
Sterrett. a teacher, seems worthy of the at
tention OF all who are in any degree inter-
eSted IN the prosperity of Common Schools.
To m" It is utterly astonishing that, with a
knowledge ct the facts, any Jury would cri m
laatc the teacher and compel him t0 pay half
the cost of trial into which a petty vindic
tlvpneSs had forced him. it was conclusive
ly proYed.-by the testimony of the very girl
whom the teacher had Corrected that force
was resorted tn only after the nupil had re
fused 10 obey very simple and reasonable
direction namely, to 20 forward and spell
W 'rd missed when in the spelling class that
it was continued only so long as she stubborn
ly refused obedience, and as soon as she obev.
ed the teacher immediately ceased to correct
her. To be sure, the lawyer who pleaded tie
cause of the girl, INDUCED in the use uf op
probrlous epithets toward the teacher. calling
his conduct 8 brutal and all that but this
must have been the product Of an over stimu
lated imagination, or perhaps was only pro
tesslonal exaggeration, for no extraordinary
severity was proved to be employed
And yet the teacher must virtually be
fined to the extent of half the costs, for what?
If any one can give satisfactory answer,
gent citizens would be most glad to hear it.
AS 1t now stands, it is pecuniary prohibi.
ti3n to every teacher of common school to
punish a pupil for any offence. 1t virtually
ties the hands of teachers so that they can
use only persuasion, and not wholesome fear,
to secure obedience from scholars of any
character. Doubtless it was not so intended
by the Jurors who gave that verdict, but is it
not unquestionably so in fact? What teach
er will avail himself of the salutary aid Of
corporal punishment, at the rate of S25 for
every case? a T 8F aa
Is it the candid opinion of the people of
this county that teachers must not correct
their pupils under any circumstancesf If
not shall teachers be hindered from perform
ing their duty for fear some quarrelsome or
weak-minded parent will prosecute them,
and a jury composed of citizens will either
convict them of assault and battery, or com
pei them to pay half the cost?
This matter needs intelligent consideration;
my cheeks tingle with shame, that in this
county such a verdict, under such circum-
stances, could be given.

Publication of the LAVE.

bill has passed the House, at Des Moines,
requiring the board of Supervisors to publish
the general Acts of the Legislature in at least
one newspaper THAT having the largest circu-
lation) in each county. The measure was
pretty thoroughly discussed and passed, yeas,
53, nays, SO. We are somewhat surprised that
Mr.. Caster of this County should speak against
q measure of such evident utility. The bill
was INTRODUCED by Mr.. Stanton of Washington
Co., who, on a motion being made to strike out
sshall' and insert '.may" spoke against the
amendment and is thus reported:
Mr.. Stanton said he hoped the amendment
of the gentlemen from Lucas would not prevail.
That there was too much discretionary legisla-
tion on our statutes. The present law pro-
vides the same discretionary power in relation
to the publication of laws. The bill proposed
was to require the publication of the laws for
the benefit of the people for whom the laws
are made. The compensation therefor was left
with the Boaed of Supervisors-if they did not
see fit to give the usual reasonable compensa-
ton they could cut it down one half, or to
whatever figure they pleased The idea was to
have the laws published so the people could
get them, and not for the benefit Of the county
press, Of which the gentleman had so much
| fear. Many members who owed their seats
here in no small degree to the influence Of their
county papers, come here and turn round and
use their efforts towards cutting down what
little patronage the press gets from the State
to the smallest pittance. The county press
was entitledto some consideration at our hands,
and there was not q single paper in the State,
in his opinion, that would not be glad to pub
lish the laws for anything approaching reason.
able compensation. In many cases they were
publishing them without any compensation
whatever, and hoped the amendment, which
only leaves the law as at present, would not
prevail. While it would give very limited
compensation to county press for the work OF
printing and distributing the laws broadcast,
it would confer much greater benefit upon
the people oskaloosa Herald.

HURRAH FOR THE PEETTIcoATs.-A CORES
po1dent Of the Indianapolis Journal writing
from Martinsburg, Va, illustrates the Union
feeling observed along the march from Paw
Paw:
At North Mountain House we experienced
the first genuine Union feeling we have met
with since we have been in Virginia. Every
house top had on it the flag of the Union
At this station, three days before, there were
rebel pickets. The genuine Union feeling Of
the people of North Mountain l will illustrate
by a real occurrence. 1t seems that the young
ladies of North Mountain House have very
large Union flag, which it was necessary that
they should keep concealed so the repels would
not get it. The young ladies after mature
thought, concluded to have it worn as a skirt,
and selected Miss Matte Cookers as the most
proper person. Thus encompassed she lived
and moved until Capt. John Wilson's company
of the 18th arrived in town. When it was
known that we were United States soldiers she
took the flag from its place of concealment
and stood undauntedly waving it while the
Captains company gave it three times three,
and the band to erliven the scene, gave the
people Yankee Doodle. An old lady who was
present said to us afterwards that Miss Cook
ers ought to have taken it from its place of
concealment before came up, for now that
we had found out where the Union ladies kept
their flags concealed we would be looking for
them all the time. We met another old lady
there, en- route for o neighbor's on visit but
she could not 60 any further, for she must stay
and see the dear soldiers, and that, for her
part, she hadn't felt so happy since Parson So
| and-so had a revival at her house before sees
