JosEPHUs CLARK, Esq of New Mar
tinsville, was in the city yesterday, and
psid us the compliment OF call. he
rates business from fsir 20 middliug" in
Wetzel, and is looking forward with
hope to the future. tie tells US they
made = narrow escape from having s
disastrous fire in his town on New
Yesrs night. Nuzum's Touring mill
was discovered 10 be on fire;
and when the discovery wss made the
fire had been quietly burning for i've or
six hours, and the sheathing OF the roof
and the rsfters were all mass of chsrred
coal. Had the windows or doors been
thrown open, so as to admit drsi: o.
sir, Nj CLARK says the mill, with sll It's
valuable contents, would un-
doubtedly have been consumed.
and much Of the town might also have
been destroyed before the flames could
have been stayed But the citizens
managed to get water on the fire from
tie outside snd thus kept it under con-
troI until they finally e1tinguished it.
The IRE wss originated by the friction Of
heated journal, and wss not discovered
for FIVE or slI hours after the mill had
ceased running for the day.

Alleged Insanity of n Wealthy Old
Man.

New YORK, January 3.-Two or three
days since, Thomas Lord, one of the
weslthiest retired merchants of this city,
aged 81, married the celebrated Miss
Wilhelmins Wilkins Picks, aged 43, to-
day. Thomas Lord, jr, ienry Lord
and F. II. Lord, sons Of Thomas Lord,
joined in petition to Judge Van Brunt,
now sitting in the Supreme Court, stating
that their father Is, and for some time
has been, deprsved of reason and under
standing through old age, lnfrmity and
decay, and is unfit for the government ot
himself and the management OF his estate,
wherefore they pray Tor commission
in lunscy. The petition is supported by
the attidsvits OF those persons aud the
isnitor of one OF their fathers build
ings. They all relate instances Of his
lack of memory and unfitness for busi-
ness. The old gentleman owns between
100000 and Sl,000,OO0 in improved
real estate, and personal property worth
100000. and has been in receipt OF
$l200O0 income, while his personal ex-
penses did not exceed $4,000. Judge
Van Brunt appointed as Commissioner
ex-Judge EnUch Fsncher, DR.. Geo. A.
Peters and James d. Fiak, and granted
an injunction against the disposition OF
his property by Mr.. Lord or his agents.

Are Creeds Useful TO
Common SENSE"
,ndence of the Register.

Correspondence of the Register.
Although | have said "sdieu," lest any
one should draw wrong inference from
anything that have heretofore written,
l will say, in answer TO Common
Sense, without intending TO prolong the
discussion, that the subject of creeds is
one upon which l have spsnt great
deal OF thought, and my cor clusion Is
this: that to most Christians, notwith-
standing creeds are liable TO serious
abuse, they are nevertheless useful, and
in some respects, perhaps, necessary.
They are useful chiefly as aids to the un-
derstsnding and memory, as furnishing
and keeping before the mind sys
ter attic view OF what one might
suppose to be taught IN the
Bible. Many persons are incapable
Of forming their own creed from the
Bible, except rs to the few points which
are strictly essential. Such a creed
furnished to his hand is of great sdvsn.
tage as al aid to assist him in the study
OF the Scriptures. 1t is thus in every
other branch OF study. A systematic
view ot i: by its sblest and most learned
expounders, Is, in many cases, almost in
dispenssble.
1t seems to me, thst if all creeds were
abolished at once there would be q strong
reaction, especially among the unlearned,
towards practical if not theoretical inf
delty. But creeds should be LIBERAL
lied and held in subordination to
the Bible. They should be held, not ss
imperatively binding, but merely as
SYMBOLS Of faith; not as masters, but as
helps. They should be worn loosely,
like an outer garment and held subject TO
modification as circumstances may seem
to require. There is nothing in nature,
or reason, or in Christianity itself which
requires that any one should submit to
either bodily or mental slavery, longer
than he can throw it of. We are eman-
cipste1 by the gospel. We are Gods
freemen, only we should be careful not to
mistake liberty tor licentiousness either
in faith or morals. There are always
those who would enslsve the human
mind and conscience. But St. Paul says
STAND fast in the liberty wherein Christ
hath made US free, and be not sntsn g led
again with the yoke OF bondage" Use
liberty, only not as An occasion to the
flesh.
1t will be seen from the above that
the right of private judgment is retained,
while that unrestrsined human authorl-
" Is re,udiated-snd this rule should
be rigldly applied, not only to Romsnists
but to Protestsnts, neither OF whom have
any right conferred upon them by the
Founder of the Christian religion to
lssd 1t over Gods heritsge. Jerusalem,
which is from above, is free"

TEACHERS AND INSTITUTES.
A gentleman writes US from Ritchie


county, asking US to figure up and print
in the REGISTER how much money and
time the people have been legislated out
of BY the State Legislature in the inter-
est of the school teachers. And then
our friend goes TO work to give US a little
aid in the lsborious process. He says:
The law requires of school teacher
twenty-five days labor in each month,
and provides that each sub-district shall
have school at least four
months in each year. Then
the law goes on to give
each - teacher eight days in
which 10 attend Teachers Institutes,
one day for Thanksgiving, one for
Christmas, and ous, For New Years holi-
dsys-making eleven days in all. Sub.
tracing eleven from eighty-eight, and
we have seven.y-seven days for the four
months school, or nineteen and s-hslf
days to the month. If 8
farmer or laborer is hired 10
work four months, he is required
to work twenty six days for each month,
or one hundred aud four dsys-s differ
ence in favor of the school teacher OF
twenty. seven days in the short space OF
one-third of year. Besides, the teacher
is required 10 teach but SIX hours day
while the farmer must work from sun
rise to sun.set-snd then the latter will
get but one-half IS much pay tor
twenty-six days as the former gets for
nineteen and half days.
We have given our friends calculs.
tlons pretty fully, and confess he makes
q pretty strong case in favor OF the ease
and proftsbleness of teaching; and 1t
brings to our minds little affair in
which we once played part. In pur-
chasing g roast of beef one day from our
butcher, we said to him: "Mr. Butcher,
l don't understand how it is you charge
as much for choice cuts of beef at this
time, when you are paying but four to
five cents pound for fat beeves, as you
charged when you paid seven and eight
cents2"
"You don't, hey" responded our
friend of the meat-ax.
mo, and should be glad to be en-
lghtened upon the subject"
"Well," said Toutou: II will tell youi
just put the difference in my pocket"
And then he laughed heartily. "And,
he added, "if you think butchering is q
profitable business, would suggest that
you go into it."
We confessed be made out good case
in favor of engaging in the butchering
business, and promised TO consider the
matter.
