Mr.. EDITOR :7tlThe building which is now
known as the Germany school-house, was built
In the fall of 1851, for which Simon Shull had
the contract, aud 1t Ia becoming old and dilap-
idated and will soon have TO be replaced by
new one. 1t would, perhaps, be interesting to
some of the many readers of THE TIMES to
have a brief history of the schools kept Ia this
house since its erection. The following named
persons have been the teachers of the school
since 1851:
VIM. Grier, Michael Weaver, j. B. Gehr,
VIM. Rheem, G. W. Gehr, John Adams, g. A.
Wagner, w. 4. DUN, I. G. Foose, Daniel
Reeder, David Shelby, j. Calvin Shelby, r.
Cooper, M. l.. DUN, II. L. Tressler, David
Kell, Samuel DUN, and David Kane. These
teachers taught from one to four terms each
three OF them held county offices lone became
a minister of the gospel one doctor, and one
a graduate of commercial college. Seven OF
these are single, and only two dead. In all,
there were about three hundred pupils in at
tendance at this school four of which be-
came teachers, one doctor, and one school
director. Four were killed 10 the late rebel
lion, four died In the army, and three were Sc
verely wounded. Thirty five are still in at
tendance, and the school is taught at present
by ID. r. Kane. @. w. q.

Accident An accident occurred on
Friday afternoon of last week, which
resulted in the death of one horse, and
another one is now not expected to live.
The particulars are az follows: Mr..
John Mccoy, who was driving a horse
from Miller's livery, was sleighing out
west King street. When near the alley,
running from King street down to
Miller's hotel, be met Mr.. Charles
Kreichbaum driving towards him. Mr..
McCoy's horse turned into the alley to
go to the stable, before Mr.. Mccoy could
get him under control, Mr.. Kreichbaum,
at the same time turning to the right
for the purpose of passing the approach
ing sleigh. This brought the horses
together the shaft from Mr.. Kreich-
baum's sleigh running into the breast
and penetrating the heart of McCoy's
horse. The animal reared up and fell
down dying almost instantly. In the
fall he injured the sleigh considerably,
breaking the shafts, besides doing other
damage. The horse was a valuable one
and was priced very highly by MIR.
Miller. The shoulder Of Mr.. Kreich-
baum's horse was knocked out Of place,
and he is now lying down unable to get
up. Mr.. Kreichbaum will probably kill

Lipplncott's Magazine.

Nothing In Lippincott's Magazine for Feb
ruary will be read with more interest than the
sketch of the great Hungarian artist, MINK
acsy, by his intimate friend, Mr.. Johu TAFT,
OF Baltimore. The striking character and ro-
mantle career of one who, starting without
education, means or resources Of any kind has
by force OF genius and industry attained a
high place among the painters of to-day makes
this account of his private life aud early sErug-
giles one of great interest which Is enhanced
by the fact that some of Munkacsy's huest
works are owned In America, and that his
chef-d'@ure-Mllton Debating to His Daugh-
ters--has attracted great notice at the Paris
Exposition, and been purchased for the Lenox
Library In New York. The text Is embelIshed
with finely engraved portrait. There are
many other interesting articles with some short
and amusing papers that help to render the
number highly readable aud attractive.

r. r. Passes.-In days gone by, the free
pass business ON different railroads rose
to an immense magnitude. This was
notably the case on the Pennsylvania
railroad. But the era of economy and
reform has effected radical change,
and the management of the road, for its
own protection, has been obliged to re-
strict the issue. A general order on the
subject has been issued by acting Presi-
dent Roberts, and free passes this year
will be like angels visit-'few and far

Our Friend Taylor. = Among all the
salesmen representing city houses, we
believe there is none who has more
friends, where he is known, than Sam
uel B. Taylor, who represents the we'll
known grocery houseof Wainwright &
Co., of Philadelphia. We are always
glad to see Sans smiling face in our
town, and we are told by many of his
customers, that in placing their orders
for goods, they give him the preference
over any salesman that travels this
route. Mr.. Taylor has the happy facul-
ty of making friends, and, what is still
better, has the ability to keep them. We
trust he will live to make us frequent
visits for many years.

The Wrong Man COMPLAINS. :

The Wrong Man Complains. = A wedding
party in the upper end was recently
troubled, by having the highway stop
ped by log chains, and other obstruc-
tions, and correspondent writes us
complaining because the groom was
not more liberal in paying the persons
who thus violated the laws. 1t is time
people learned that to bar the public
road, and demanded money, is highway
robbery, which is crime of considera-
bic magnitude. If any person has a
right to complain, it is the party who
was refused peacable passage, and not
the persons who violated the laws by
obstructing the road.

Cumberland County.-We copy the fol-
lowing from the Cumberland county
papers of last week:
On Monday night the U. B. Church,
in Shippensburg, was entered by some
miscreant, who robbed the collection
boxes of their contents. Fortunately
they had been emptied a few Sabbaths
before, and the thief got little for his
trouble.
On Friday afternoon Mrs. s. w.
Early, of Carlisle, met with q painful
and serious accident. She left the house
for the purpose of drawing some water
from the bydrant, and as she left go the
door knob she fell, sustaining COM
pound comminuted fracture of the left
wrist. DIR. Krise rendered the necessary
aid. Mrs. K. suffered intensely during
Friday night, but,we are pleased to state
easier now.
Wednesday night the family of VIM.
Kerr, of Westpennsboro township, mar
rowly escaped sufiocation from gas gen
Grated by coal stove in one of the low
er rooms. Mr.. Kerr, who had spent the
night in the neighboriDg house, usually
occupied by David Ker, returned to his
own house in the morning to find the
family all deatbly sick and vomiting
There was no connection between the
sleeping rooms and the room containing
the stove, but the gas permeated the en-
tire house and affected them as above
mentioned. DR. Brehm was called and
administered the necessary antidotal
remedies.
Our readers will remember seeing in
our columns several weeks ago of q
family in Monroe being poisoned by
eating walnut kernels. Several of the
children died, and the mother being
overcome with grief, stole silently out
of her house at night, and going to the
creek near by, cast herself into il. Her
husband awoke to find her gone, and
suspecting her intentions, Immediately
went in search, learning of her where
abouts by the splashing noise she made
in the water. The unhappy woman was
soon rescued from danger and taken
back to her home.-CdrLisle Volunteer.
