EDS. COURIER I'll notice in your
Mondays issue feeble kick at In
stitutes, which would not be worth
noticing, were it not to correct some of
the mistakes and ill-natured filings.
that the impotent wrath of this "ob-
serving teacher" has perpetrated on
persons connected with the Institute.
He has manifested his ignorance or ILL
nature in mis-representing the manner
in which these annual meetings are
brought about, If he would take the
trouble to examine into the matter,
fairly and honestly, he would find that
the County Superintendent had very
little to do in the premises.
The wrath of this doughty observer
has been infiamed, no doubt, to white
heat, because the " fraternity" has re-
fused to be bored with the pet themes
of this small auger.
While the friends Of Education are
felicitating themselves on the pre-
eminent success of the Institute, we
hear suppressed groan from Chilli
Gothic, with just sufficient articulation
to enable us to distinguish the words,
"egotism," cherished few" A. NJ, /"
cabinet" &C., which every honest
person will readily discover, savors
much more of personal pique and dis
appointment, than sincere wish for
the Improvement of Teachers, or the
advancement of the cause Of Educa-

shelter for swine.

From careful observation for sever.
al years. we are.fnlly persuaded that
the hog cholera was first caused b,
improper feed, bad water, and made
quate shelter.
We are also persuaded that the COM
mon practice of keeping young hogs
through the winter, especially in large
numbers. without sufficient shelter, is
is fruitful cause of disease, and al
though it may not prove fatal immedi-
ately. yet it SO weakens the constitu'
tion and predisposes the animal to all
that swine flesh is heir to, that the COM
ing fall it will require but few mala-
rions breezes, few cold, damp, chilly
nights, or little impure water, to so
develope the germ of disease already
in the system, that no amount ofcare
and drugs at that late day can proba-
bly, arrest the disease or save life.

An Open Letter.


SIR:-I trust that | shall not be
charged with presumption in address
ing you on the subject of this letter.
/ want to thank you, not for any favor
bestowed on my friends, or shown to
me. Thanks for such things arc as
common as the benefits they CONFER
l desire to thank you for something
much beyond the ordinary practice OF
high official life. desire to thank you
for the respect shown by you to Mr..
Greeley on his deathbed and for the
great respect you paid his character
and memory by your attendance OH his
funeral. 1t was great compliment
for the head of q great nation to de-
cline attendance on an official festivity
while private citizen was dying, a
citizen who had no claims on the SYM
pathy of the official, either Of blood or
close friendship. 1t was much great
er compliment when that Executive
laid aside the pressing duties of lis
great Office, and, making night jour-
ney of hundreds of miles, at an incle-
ment season, took the place of a private
person among the thousands gathered
together to pay the last tribute of re-
spect that the living can pay to the
dead. For your remembrance of Mr..
Greeley, dying for your attendance at
his funeral; for the fearful attention
You paid to the sad ceremonies of that
secession, Mr.. President, thank you
with ali earnestness. ] am very sure
that in doing SO but echo the senti-
ments Of hundreds of thousands of
your fellow-citizens, whose views of
public affairs led them and myself to
support, in the late canvass, the man to
whom you have shown such high re-
spect. BY these acts you have remov-
ed prejudices, changed opponents into
friends, and shown the world that
great official life need not deaden I'll I
better instincts of our common human
ity. BY these acts you have taught the
nations that Americans never forget
what is due to the character of their
great citizens, and that the passions of
an exciting political contest never de-
stroy the respect that American parti-
san opponents have for the good lives
of good men.
thank you, Mr.. President, and pray
that long and happy life may await
you; and when it shall please the Great
Ruler to send the angel Of Death to call
you hence, may your passage to the
tomb be made smooth by the affections
of kind friends, and the grave close
over you with the heart felt prayers of
your countrymen for your eternal rest.
Very respectfully, your friend,
