for the unfortunate mes who were enticed
to these places, and not forgetting the
destroyer, who stood within. Impclled as
they believed by Gods holy spirit they
increased their visits and their numbers
were augmented, until they were seen in
groups around these places from morning
till night, singing, reading and praying.
They are honest in believing that they
are led by the spirit Of God and not only
are the ladies Of the town interested but
the entire christian community is enthu-
%siastic on the subject. Hardly a lady in
the place that does not directly or indirect>
ly contribute to this movement. All
the ministers Of the town have become so
interested as to hardly think or talk Of
any thing else. Almost hourly during
the day tho ministers and male members
the church meet to pray for the success Of
their wives. During the two weeks Of
the Circuit Court that has been going on
q deep solomnity seemed to pervade the
town. It ever found its way into the
Court room and left its impress upon the
bar. Many a rough sun>burnt cheek was
suGuscd with tears, as the men from the
country stood around this little band Of
noble and listened to their sweet
songs and earnest prayers. 1t matters
not what may be our sense Of feminine
property, We could not find it in our
hearts to censurc the who have
combined to put down this evil. We ex>
pect to see il all over the land, and as
sure as God is in the movement it will
succeed. BY these and other means it is
expected that a public sentiment will be
created that will force ou Legislature to
prohibit the importation and sale Of in>
toxicating liquors altogether. So mote it
be. Yours &c., FELIX.

Mess. Eds.-In as much as you pub.
lished my artikel on skool houses in your
last paper, l will furnish you with an ar
tikel On 'scatin skool houses" In the
first place l will Civ you my method Of
,catin skool houses, any way the eccnom'
ical feater Of it. Let it be done as cheap.
ly as possible. Do as did ouer fathers,
and their fathers. Go to tho forest, aud
cut trees down. Slab of some pieces,
bore holesin the ends,put legs il, LONG ones
in one eand, and short ones in tother then
you will have very good seats for tho de,
strict skool hous.
If this is not a good method Of scatin
skoOl houses, as to choapncss, | am no
jucge.
Some Of our enthusiastic skool men
want benches with backs to EN-, and a
place to put your feet Ou,and desks to put
books, paper, pen, ink &,. in. Now Mr..
Editor, when I was q boy we dident have
any SIGH things at all. And times var
better than they now ar. I never heard
tell Of a patton desk till within the few
last years. Now, Mr.. Editor, you will
see at that my plan of scatin
skool houses is cheap Que, and will an
swer every purpers.
i. To have benches with long legs at one
eand and short legs at tother, so that
little boys may set on the low eand, and
big boys on the high eand, certainly is
quite convenant.
l know it looks some better, and per-
haps IS a little more covenant to have
patton benches and SIGH like things, but
it costs too much, and moro Eor that it
Amt popular in my dsstrict. 1t is more
nor likly that l shall be a c~andydate for
ofisc. some day, and you know ] must
consult the poplar side. %
Mr.. Ed. hopin you will publish this
letter for the good Of tho publick (for I
only write for the good Of the publick,
l will ad nothin more on thi, subject.
In my next letter | will say somethin
about the ofise Of County Superintendent.
HOpin NY letter will be cOrjially received
and read by your readers, 1 remain &c.

that Judge Gillenvaters was a ~stockhOldel
in the HERALDsAN TRIBUNE. How il
received its Information We do not kaow,

lived in the %''little brown Jug" We are
well aware that the Era could neither do
much harm or good TO any man asit has

tighten the gentlemen who control that
paper, we assert that Judge Gillenwaters
does not own stock, part or parcel OF
the HARALD AND TRIBUNE. We adyv'
cate his cause because we consider him an
honest man, and assert positively that he
has no interest in the Office whatever.

MesSrs EditorS.--It is seldom | write
for the papers or take IN active part in
politics. l have however for some time
rast watched with more than ordinary in.
terest the progress Of public sentiment
and state Of the public mind relative to
affairs and political issues of the day end
am gratifed to find the tone of this senti.
ment much higher and public opinion
much nearer a unit than at any time
since the late war.
The conviction is deep and general
that the interest Of the common people
has been neglected. their rights disregard
ed, their money extortsd from them to
meet demands created by cxtravagant ex.
penditures and reckless legislation in the
interest of rights and capitol and that a
reformation is not only necessary but
must and shall be affected. l find that
preliminary to this reformation the pco-
pie have determined to repudiatc the men
who have been in any way connected
with this cxtravagance and corruption
which has brought such intolerable bur-
dens upon them and select men in whose
honesty and integrity they have entire
confidence. Such is the fixed purpose
and determination Of the good people of
this county, such l understand to be the
tone Of public sentiment in the county
generally.
As 70 representation in Congress I tell
you tho desire has coms forth that q
change must ard shall be made. To
resist successfully this current Of public
feeling, and purpose is simply impossible.
To whom then are we directed a the
coming man! That the public miad is
fixed upon Judge Gillenwaters as the
most suitable man through whom to CT.
feet the needed reformation is a fact we'll
known to every we'll informed man in this
Congressional District. In this county the
Judge will be supported not only by tho
Republicans butby the fair minded men Of
all parties. I have heard his probable
majority in this county yariously estima,
ted at from five hundred to fifteen bum
dred in the events the race should be rs
now anticipated. Igive you this bright
sentiment Of the public pulse in tais
county not only rs the Judgment Of the
writer but as the opinion Of a genumber
with whom he has conversed. Other gem
tlcmeu are spoken of in a manner highly
respectable but it is quite apparent that
their slime is not yet" With this you
can do as you think ID, ~. r,.x
