Evnositions VS.. Examinations.

While examinations at the close Of
schools are very good, to show the
knowledge of the pupil, they fail to
show how, and when he acquired
it. An exposition, properly managed,
will show what the pupil learned
during each month of the school
Their work in penmanship, map
drawing, SC, can be readily shown by
means Of contrasted specimens, but
for regular work the task is not so
easy. Outlines and written exami-
nations may both be used to ad-
vantage, but either one will require
much patient instruction and drilling,
where the pupils are unaccustomed
to such work yet we think it will
not be time lost, for the drill in or
derly method is of more practical
utility than most things that are
taught in our schools, and the re-
suit will be much more interesting,
to those who are really interested
in the improvement of the pupils,
than any school examination.

The Office of Principal of the Nor

made vacant by the death of Prof.
J. NJ. Zuck, IS now filed by J. NJ.
Brumbaugh, and the work goes on.
Our young friend, J. E. Ockerman, Of
Penn Township, has received a posi-
tion in the school for next year.
We wish him success. He is an
earnest worker in the cause of Edu-
cation and we'll deserves q "come up
higher" It is sad that a young man
of promise must leave home and
kindred and try his fortune among
strangers, but it was ever thus: GA

We will say to the teachers, that,
personally, we do not care a Gig" for
his attacks; but, as we expect to leave
the county on business connected
with our future work, before you see
another issue of the Column, we
feared that some strangers who
were disposed to be friendly, might
put wrong construction upon our
silence, so we have written as we
have. We beg the pardon of our
friends for using so much Of their

Before the next issue of the News
reaches its readers, we expect to be
in Lebanon, in attendance at the
National Normal School. In view
of this fact, we have been trying,
since early in April, to find some one
to take our place, or rather take the
place we have been striving to fill,
but so far we have not been success
ful. We may succeed yet, however
If so, you will be duly informed ot
the fact. If no one can be found
we will do our best, under the cir.
cumstances, until the assembling Of
the Institute in August, at which
time we shall turn the Column over
to the teachers, and we hope some
one will be found willing to take the
work in hand, aud carry it on to the
success it merits.

Turner Turned Over,

We have been reading the Hills
boro Gazette again, and we beg Of
our readers to overlook our style
this week. We confess that we have
caught the blatherskite Bridwells
beautiful q style, but we hope it
will wear off when we leave the
country for awhile.
Three weeks ago we accused Tur-
ner Of writing the letter in the Ga
zette, hoping he would see his error
and expose the true author. Now
we say, he did not write it. We
have read somewhere of San ass in
lions skin" but the Gazette ass
brays with lions voice, and shows
lions teeth and claws; and when a
lion comes out in an ass skin, look
out for "dirty work. Worse than
this, there are five or six big lions
trying to hide Ill Turner's skin, and
we pity the fellow. We know all
their plans, too, and, in confidence,
we will just tell you, dear reader,
that if you want to read something
of which what has already been pub
Hshed don't begin to be fOretaste,
subscribe for the Gazette.
Turner's twaddle about "truth"
gives US some consolation, but we
can give him a better quotation:
"Truth forever on the scaffOld,
Wrong forever on hte throne;
Yet that scaffold sways the future,
For, behind the dim unknown,
Standeth God, within the shadow,
Keeping watch above his own"
We have knowingly and willingly
taken the role of "Truth on the scat
fold" We like it, at least we pre-
fer it to being ''puffed up with lies, "
and Wrong may come down from his
throne sooner than some people
think.
Let Turner produce one response
bic witness to say that we said one
word about the Glove theory" before
we taught the Stringtown school or
that the big boys rode us on a pole. "
Let him find one intelligent indi7id-
ual, who attended our Readings,
(except certain Rev. whose free
and-easy conduct with the young
ladies has sometimes caused him to
change his base unexpectedly, and
who expected us to admit him free,
but was disappointed,) who will say
that we did not do moro and better
than we promised, either in poster
or opening remarks. When he does
these things, we say, it will be time
enough to notice his illusions fur

WHOLE NO. 2245.

One Of Rice's weaknesses as a Dem
ocratic candidate for Governor is the
fact that he is connected with a Ma
tional Bank. The Democracy have
been making the opposition to Nation
al Banks a leading feature in their
campaigns for several years past, and
it would be very inconsistent in them
now to support man whose interests
are Unidentified with the obnoxious in
stitutions. Bishop used to own bank
stock and to be a director in a bank,
but he sold out and thus eondoned
his offense.

have recently advanced rapidly in

of last week, May 21st, the 1st mort

to 474, and closed at AZ. Sales Of
about $4,000 were reported for
that day. Only a few months ago
these bonds were down to q and IS.
The recent advance is no doubt
owing to the better prospects for
an early completion OF the western
