The County superintendent.

CURwENsvILLE, Feb. 81, 1S66.-MR.
EDITOR: / am informed, by different per
sons, that it is currently reported that | am
political candidate for the office OF County
Superintendent of Common Schools, in
Clearfeld county. And one individual has
said, that if am not will publicly decline
the Office. l wish through the medium of
the public press, by your permission, to dis
abuse the public mind, and set myself right
on this subject.
As to my declining the Office, think it
will be time to do SO, when the position Is
tendered,-a trouble | do not anticipate;
and, moreover, something | most likely
would not do if brought to the test. Be
that as it ma; wish it distinctly under
stood throughout the county, that | am not
candidate at all much less political can
didate for the Office of County Superinten-
dant of Commoa Schools-an Office which.
IN my humble opinion, ought never to be
connected with partisan politics | have
never offered myself in this county for this
position, and althous b several times earn
estly solicited, have steadily refused to be a
candidate
To my friends who have urged me to ask
for the Office [ may, while | thank them for
the kindness shown me. give few reasons
for my refusal, and First If the office is to
be made political one, l desire to have
nothing to do with it | have my strong
political preferences but as teacher in the
Public schools in our commonwealth for al
most fourteen years, and in connection an
humble minister of the gospel for half that
time, | have striven not to let my political
preferences interfere with my duties; and
as those political opinions are my own, do
not intend to give them into the hands Of
any party to be used as public property
Neither do intend to prostitute, an office
so important, to political purposes. In the
second place: / have not the presumption
to ask such favor from people among
whom have lived for SO short time And
lastly: las we preachers say) will only
all the Office when it seeks me, and not when
seek it-such, at least, is my present feel
ing.
Hoping that it will now be fully under
stood that | am no candidate, ] subscribe
'nfsaif friend TO popular education.

THE KIDNEYS,

The kidneys are two in number, sit
uated at the upper part of the loin,
surrounded by fat, and consisting of
three parts, viz: the anterior, the in
terror, and the exterior.
The anterior absorbs; the interior consists of
tissues veins, which serve as deposit for the
urine and convey it to the exterior; the exterior
is conductor also, terminating in a single tube,
and called the ureter; the ureters connected
with the bladder.
The bladder is composed of various
coverings or tissues, divided into parts viz the
upper, the lower, the nervous, and the mucous.
The upper expels, the lower retains. Many have
a desire to urinate without the ability, others
rinate without the ability to retain. This fire.
quently occurs in children.
To cure these affections we must
bring into action the muscles. which are engaged
IN their various functions. If they are neglected
travel and Dropsy tnay ensue.
The reader must also be made aware
that however slight may be the attack it is sure
TO affect his bodily health and mental powers as
our flesh and blood supported from these
sources.
