Duties of Business Men.

the celebrated DR.. Johnson said:
he is ignorant of the manner of regu-
lating books; never let him imagine
that any degree Of natural ability will
supply the deficiency or preserve the
multiplicity of affairs from inextricabIe
confusion This is sound advice, and
should he needed by all young men CON-
templating a business career. Among
houses conducting the more extensive
anil complicated operations of COM
merce, irregalarity in the management
of their account is now becoming a
rare occurrence. But this is far from
being the case among the middle and
smaller class of dealers and mechanics.
The frequent failures among them often
disclosed the most culpable ignorance
and negligence of the management of
their accounts. as the extensive dealers
are them selves often the severest suf-
ferers by these events. they should con-
slider II their duty TO make proper in
quiry into the business qualifications of
those to whom they extend confidence.
And they should use their influence 30
impress it strongly upon the minds of
such persons. that the want of that
knowledge, which is To be obtained
alone from sympathetic accounts. must
always increase the hazard of ultimate
failure in business and il is therefore
the first and most obvious duty of every
dealer and trader small or great. to
keep precise and methodical account
of his transactions. Every young man
should remember that his value in the
commercial world will depend upon his
qualifications as business man, aud
early in life prepare himself by a
thorough course of instruction for the
duties of the counting house. Even If
he never has occasion 10 employ his
time in keeping books. it is no less i'm
perative, as a thorough going business
man, that lie should be competent ac-
countant.

| school uses, Park Seminary and lady Of
high literary attainments and experience in
| teaching employed to take charge of it. It
flourshed for a short time, and then closed
Its career for want of patronage. Several
other efforts, of a similar kind, were made at
Mauch Chunk, but all failed. A parochial
school was opened in connection with the
Episcopal church, which is still kept open,
although not in a very prosperous condition.
Another was opened, in connection with tho
Catholic church, in East Mauch Chunk,
which is well patronized. In 1853, q stock
company was formed at Weissport, under
the title of" Carbon Academy and Normal
School Association" A house was purchased
and remodeled into an elegant school -house,
with costly furniture. Professor Eberhart, a
gentleman of culture and experience in
teaching, was hired to take charge of it. He
was paid monthly salary which, with the
other current expenses. was to be paid from
the tuition fees, which was charged and
collected from each pupil; the balance of
tuition was.to be divided among the stock
holders in the shape of dividends. After
seemingly prosperous career of two years, an
investigation Of the finances ofthe company
showed no surplus on hand to be divided,
but debt of some hundreds of dollars to be
provided for. Prof. Eberhart resigned, and
Pliny Porter, man ofonly ordinary attain
ments, succeeded him. Under his manage
ment, the school was continued another
year and was then sold at public auction for
the debts. r. f. Hohord became the pur-
chaser. The house was refitted and school
opened May /, 1867, with ten pupils. 1t
gradually gained in favor with The people,
apd its patronage rapidly increased. An
additional teacher was employed. In 1862
the building was destroyed by the freshet in
the Lehigh river, and rebuilt the same year
in Lehighton. In 1867, the late A. S. Chris
tine became proprietor. lie was gentleman
of superior abilities, and the school continued
its prosperous and useful career until June
1865, when, to the regret of its patrons and
educators in general through the county, it
was closed by the death of Prof. Christine.
Several attempts have since been made to
re establish it, but all failed.
There are no academies or any other
schools, and never have BEEN in the county,
that received State aid.

done so of long time" Concealment of
treasure trove is it appears, punishable by
fine or imprisonment; but it has been laid
down that "the taking of goods whereof no
one had a property at the time can not be
felony; and, therefore, he who takes any
treasure trove before ut has been
seized by the persons who have a right there
to II not guilty of felony" But the better
opinion seems to be that, although the SOW
ereign or lord has no definite property in
treasure trove till he has seized, yet the true
owner, though unknown, who has lost the
money may still have a property in it. And
it is, of course, clear that unless the appro-
priator has reasonable grounds for supposing
that the owner can not be found, his taking
the treasure may amount to larceny. Where
this is not so, obvious difficulties arise as to
proof of felonious taking, but an ancient
judge appears to have felt no hesitation in
laying down the rule that larceny may be
committed by stealing goods the owner OF
which Is unknown, because, as he sagely re-
marked, the felony would otherwise go un
punished
