For the Essex County Herald.
The sun gets up pretty early now
a-days and is very punctual-haS had
very hard one to remove old winter,
but Has at last run him into the AT
lantic Ocean. Nature is wide-awake,
and about its business and every
thing ''toes the mark exactly.
Would that men were as wide-awoke,
as prompt, rs much to be depended
upon. And the great trouble is. men
are 50 tardy, SO lazy i'll ;he morning.
lfmen are not prompt with thelnseivs,
in their own business, they will not
be with others. The tendency Of
American society is to change the or
der Of Nature-to use the night for
the day. Fashion knows no rest till
after midnight, consequently no work
i'll the forenoon OF the next day.
Men should plan their business to get
through early at night for rest; be up
early in the morning, and have all
day for labor. l know many farmers,
who are always very late about their
chores-plodding aroun III lhe dark
it necessarily keeps the whole house
hold iu disorder. ResulL-late to bed,
late in the morning, late all day.
Some men especially hired men, don't
wake up till the dinner HON calls
them.-they nimbIy answer It's sum-
mons. They will stretch, and gap,
and scratch in the morning, but
are not awake. That which wakes
up is inside-the mind, the thought,
the determination, must arouse, and
eneryetically pursue It's course, i'll Or
der to accomplish anything worthy in
life. | had rather be six inches
ahead than half all inch behind. The

member he is going. Railroads with
all their evils, are educators of
promptness. When the hour Or mo-
lnent arrives the train starts, and if
on all right, if off we are left. There
is train that starts evry morning at
sunrise, on which all men can ride,
and attend to llfe's varied in erests its
business, its pleasures, remembering
that it always gets there ut shutdown.
If we are ready to get on in the morn

The discussion with reference 10 the
right or wrong Of the congressional
"back pay" scheme still goes ON, nearly
every paper having said something
about it, and almost universally in
terms of condemnation. The people
are watching these public servants as
never before, and this on account of
the distrust created by practices which
it was supposed men trusted for years
rs above reproach, were incapable of.
Every scheme is almost certain To be
thoroughly ventilated and woe to Snch
as do not come up square to principles
of right aud equity.
The first impression with many
persons in regard 10 the salary grab
was, that it having been voted br
Congress the money became legally
the property of each member,and they
had right To draw il and devote il
to such purposes as they saw fit. OF
course it was further implied that con.
sidering the roundabout way in which
it was obtained, the part Of magma
nimity required that they should not
appropriate it to their own use but to
some charitable or benevolent purpose.
And in acc rdanCe with this idea
some congressman who hal drawn
their back pay thinking at least that it
was legally theirs, concluded they
could turn it over to some other use
than their own, and so neutraIize the
censure or guilt for having taken it
at all. But this was very soon found
20 be illogical.
The whole matter seems to be re-
solving itself into this: If Congress
had the right to vote the beck pay u
its members it became theirs absolute
", and they were under no obligation
to devote it to any purpose but their
own. They had a right to use it rs
any other Of their property, and ifthey
gave it to any other Use it was an act
Of pure beneyolence. But If the back
pay did not belong to them, then their
taking it was robbery, aud their sub
sequent disposal of it in any manner
but returning 1t to the government,
whence they took it, made it no less Il
robbery. Or in other words, the back
pay belonged to the body that voted
it or it did not. II it did, let them
take and use it as they please; if 1t
did not, theh their hands should not
touch it.-ErpreSs.

The A1guS suggests that Secretary
French has had an offer to go to Penn
sylvania. 1t may be a dodge" or
it may not be. In contingency we
should say let him go-and that con-
tingency is this lis the state OF Penn
nsylvania large enough for him and
Simon Cameron? Pennsylvania is a
large state, and possibly might contain
two such men-but it would surely
lose something in the end.
The argus thinks the Secretary can
now afford to leave Vermont. He has
got his arithmetics passed into the
schools by the Board-(they were
there sometime before and also got
the Board to adopt other books of a
New York publishing house, of which
the Secretary is (and was before he
came into the State, reputed agent.
With ID per cent, upon the sale of his
arithmetics-and nobody knows how
much on the other books-it would
seem that he might leave our hood
winIed Gin the book matter,) State,
and expand in broader field. More
especially can lie afford to do this as he
has put large bill upon the State
in publishing his long Argument to
show that the schools, must accept
his arithmetics, and the other books
Of his New York house. This is a
ew-born idea. He did not appear to
understand this when he was peram-
bulating the State in company with his
associates, by whom his arlthmetics
were crowded into schools two years
ago, under his eyes--if he had any
eyes in this direction. The people
will not accept this argument. They
will accept instead that Of Judge
Steele. The last Woodstock Post is
about right when it says.
"There is, practically, but one
voice from those entitled to Judge,
and that says, Do not use French's
arithmetics. "-Culedonian.
The foregoing may all be true, but
how about the Board of Education
that would suffer themselves to be
so terribly imposed upon, and State
which they represent, to be hood
winked by their Secretary? Would
it not be we'll enough for the retiring
secretary to take them to Pennsylva-
MIA with him? DR.. French may have
"washed more than he can hang out"
but is it surprising, in this age of I'M
exampled "cheek?' Why is he in
the place he now holds, land upon whom
does the responsibility of foisting
him upon the State rest? Ii he is
the mercenary customer that he is
represented as being, why is he kept
in his fat office? Has the State Board
of Education no more brains than to
suffer the organization to be made
the tool Of a spectator? If not we
say out upon it. If it has, has 1t been
corrupted? then let it learn the dis
grace and ignomy that corruption de-
serves. If its members are honest
men, but fools, let them receive mer-
tied contempt. Is it possible that ir
all this noica and rnnSuro thora 10 on
interested motive, and that some
other body has arithmetics to sell?
