PoMERoY's ADVICE.

1t is a well-known fact that the no.
torious Brick Pomeroy is one of the
principal leaders of the so-called
Greenback party and most actively en-
gagged in furthering the interests of
that organization. The acknowledged
leaders of party are presumed to
represent the sentiments of those who
endorse and follow their teachings,
and in this view it may be proper to
inquire if the avowed Greenbaekers of
Fierce county endorse the following
war-like utterance of one of their illus
trious oracles and chieftains Z! Pome-
roy's advice is as follows:
I'm the organization of greenback
clubs, we counsel every able-bodied
member of these organizations to be-
come as proficient as possible in the
manual of arms. In time of peace it
Is well to prepare for war. In every
greenhack club there should be drill
master-that is, in every club whose
members are brave enough to stand at
all times, under all circumstances, to
defend their rights as citizens.
we, the people, are in rebellion against
the untaxed nobility of this country.
We, the people. propose to have our
rights, peaceably, and by means of the
ballot, if possible by the bayonet, if
we must.

THE crop reports that come to us
from the great grain regions of Wis
consin, Minnesota and Iowa, are of
the most satisfactory and cheering
character. Everywhere the grain is
OF the most healthy and luxuriant
growth; neither chintz bugs nor locusts
nor rust having thus far made their
appearance to any extent; and, should
the next three weeks pass by unac-
companied by any heavy wind or rain
storms, there is reason to believe that
the coming harvest will be the richest
ever gathered IN the North-W est.

its growth; however, the present

A FEW WORDS TO TEACHERS.
BY ONE OF THEM.

As matter Of fact. no education
can be considered complete, unless 1T
is accompanied by the possession OF a
fair knowledge of music, which Is OF
great importance to teachers especial
". as the day is nigh at hand when a
knowledge of that branch will be
necessity and requirement before
teacher can obtain situation in
school room. If there be in a family
a daughter with some talent for mr-
sic. the Instruction she will receive
from the teacher will opea and
strengthen her ambition, and give her
further opportunity to cultivate and
qualify herself as teacher, It is CIV
ing a son a trade or small fortune
which will, or may be, a means of sup
port for him in after life. The de-
mand for good music teachers is larg-
er than the supply, and young lady
qualified to teach has an accomplish
ment which may serve her well atneed.
In conclusion,I will only repeat that
the amount of pleasure and profit,
which teachers and all families may
derive, from the possession and
knowledge of musical instrument is
wonderful; that it will be an attrac-
ton and an altar of affection at home;
that ii will take the place of more ex-
pensive and dangerous amussaents
and that it may De the means OF Tar
nishinc one or more with a means OF
livelihood, is but truth.

IT is the duty, and for the interest
