A CARD.

MRS. C. A. GLADKE has for several months been
in the northern and eastern cities, and will not
return for some two three weeks. The object
of her extended sojourn is to attend the spring
openings of Millinery Goods in Baltimore and
New York, in order that she may. by her personal
observation and examination. give her customers
the benefit OF the very latest styles, and make Sc
Iections from first hands. She will remain long
enough to be present at the second openings,
which generally occur about the middle Of March.
These are regarded as most important, as they
generally settle the styles which are to prevail
during the approaching season.
With the facilities she will enjoy, Mrs. G.. will
be able to make selections from the latest Paris
and Berlin importations, and the lad es in Staun-
ton, upon her return, will have the advantages Of
the larger cities presented at their door. both as
regards price and STYLE
MRS. GLADKE's we'll known taste will have an
ample field to indulge itself. and the stock she
will bring back with her will be one the equal OF
which has never been seen in this section. 1t
will embrace the latest novelties and styles OF
Paris, Berlin and New York, and will afford rich
variety from which the ladies of Staunton and vi.
cinity can select their Hats and Bonnets, Impor-
ted Flowers, Brocade Ribbons, &C., from the
cream OF European importations. mar 6-tf

THE JEWISH eFE5 TIvAL OF UNLEAvEN-
ED BREAp,' or the Passover occurs on the
18th day Nissan at evening, corresponding
with April 7th.
During its continuance those belonging to
the Jewish faith are strictly forbidden the
use Of Searened bread which must not even
be permitted within their houses. This
ceremony OF eating unleavened bread was in
stituted in commemoration OF their ances>
tors departure from Egypt, when the 1sra-
lltes left in such haste that the dough which
had been previously prepared for bread had
not sufficient time to raise, but each man 9
portion was carried on his own back and
there was baked or dried by the heat Of the
sun.
The commandment TO: the observance of
this festival may be found in the book OF
Exodus, 18th chapter, which reads: "Seoen
daus shall ne eat unleavened bread. ON the
first day shall there be an conrocation, or an
assembling of Israel. and on the seventh
dag shall there be an holy conuocation. No
servile acork shall ye do" The penalty for
the non-observance of this festival is also to
be found IN the same chapter with the COM
mand for the observance Oft, thus, "whoever
disregarded the stric: observance of the Pass
over, even that soul shall be cut off from
Israel" And it was further commanded to
be a memorial forever, as an evidence OF the
greatness of the Divine Power in bringing
forth his chosen people from Egyptian slav-
cry, and permitting them to pass through
the Red sea on dry land, while their pur-
suers were drowned in its depths.

ssTHE NEW VIRGINIA FEED CUTTER, - is
the name OF one of the most complete and
useful inventions that has come into public
notice for long time. It is the Invention
of and was patented by Mr.. W. A. Rife, OF
Valley Mills in this county. The knife OPP
crates with rotary motion, the only cor
rect principle of an easy cut, and as it sew
ers the material, passes between two steel
bars, thus preventing hanglngs or long straw.
The material is fed to any length. by means
of an adjustment crank, which can be al
tered in an instant It is claimed that in this
machine, cheapness Of construction, mini
mum Of power and rapidity of execution
have been attained, and exhibitions of its OPP
Grafton fully establishes the claim. Its SIM
plicity of construction enables it to be man
ufactured cheaply, whilst its perfection in
every particular will commend it to the far
mers and stock raisers. What has long been
needed is hand cutter which would per-
form the work rapidly and completely and
we do not hesitate to say that this invention
supplies the want. Mr.. Rife is now manu-
featuring the new cutter at Valley Mills, as
is also Mr.. J. NJ. Hoover, in the same vicini-
ty, and so far they have disposed of them
faster than they could be made. The price
is only $40, and we advise every farmer to
examine it. Orders addressed to Swoopes
Depot will receive prompt attention.

IMMIGRATION SoCIETY.-A meeting OF
lumber of citizens of Staunton was held
last Friday night, for the purpose OF taking
steps towards the formation of an organiza-
ton the object of which should be the set
ting forth advantages offered in this section to
emigrants. The meeting was addressed by
Mr.. J. L. Muller, Rev. j. l. Miller and NJ.
ErskineNliller, latter which permanent officers
of the organization were elected, as follows !:
NJ. E. Miller, president G. L. Cooke, vice
PRESIDENT Jos. T. Muller, secretary; T. c..
Morton. treasurer. A committee was APP
pointed to draft By Laws, &C., and another
meeting will be held next Friday night.
If this matter of immigration is pushed
vigorously forward, as we are assured by
some of the gentlemen connected with the
new organization that 1t will. it will be OF in
calculable benefit to this section of the State.
All we need is that the world shall know OF
the inducements here held out to enterprise
and capital. 1t is necessary that such infor-
nation be impaired, for upon the develop
ment of her resources depends the salvation
of the State. Especially must we of this
particular section look to such measures to
bring real and lasting prosperity. Here in
the Valley, where nature has placed the gra-
merry of her treasures, where stratum upon
stratum, and layer upon layer she has piled
up the great sources of wealth, it is absolute
ly necessary that the key should be found
and the treasure utilized. That key is cap
ital and enterprise and from other States and
foreign countries we must expect them.
We understand that it is the purpose OF
this organization to open active correspon-
dence in all of the European centres, and
give to the world statement of the advan-
tages afforded here for investment
tages far more attractive by reason OF natur-
al resources, society, nearness to market,
and transportation facilities, than those oil
the West to which thousands are now pour
ing. To intercept this tide of emigration,
and direct it to consideration of Virginia,
will be the object of this society, and we
think that all of our citizens, should inquire
into its merits and give it helping hand.
Let there be large attendance next Friday
night, and an earnest, united effort made.

The PUBLIC ScHooLs.-The report of

The PUBLIC SCHoOLS.-The report OF
the Finance Committee to the City Council
on Tuesday night. shows that the allow
ance for the City Public Schools has been
reduced from $4,000 to $1,000, and at the
same time the appropriations to street i'm
provements, support Of poor, water works,
and contingent expenses increased. The es-
innate of the School Board was for $1,000,
and this sum was determined upon as the
lowest amount the schools could successfully
and efficiently get along with. In addition
to the $4,000 allowed last year, there was
$500 from the Peabody fund, but on the
other hand, the amount for rent to be paid
this year out of this fund will be 5000
instead OF $500, so the allowance reported
actually reduces the city school sup
port fund 5000. 1t is possible the quota,
$1,000, for Staunton, from the State may
be fully paid. If not. the public schools Of
the city will be necessarily crippled to the
extent of 5000.
We have heretofore given expression to
our opinion as to the policy of pretended
economy in dealing with this important in
terest. There seems to be not only a Turk
ing disposition to stint them in the support
allowed, bnta constant tendency to the re-
duction OF the salaries of the teachers. We
are not the advocates of extravaganza in SAL
aries or anything else, nor have we any pa
tience with that misconceivea economy which
would withhold the necessary means for the
efficient and successful operation of the pub.
lie schools, for the sake Of saving a few dol
lars. If the teachers are not qualified for
the duties assigned them and not capable of
earning reasonable salary, give them no.
tice to quit, and select others who will meet
the important demands of the positions. The
salaries are not too high if the instructors are
capable and faithful.
The Finance Committee and the City
Council should remember that there is no
higher duty imposed upon them than to
provide for the efficient and successful con-
duct OF the public schools, and there is no
interest which appeals more strongly to
their discriminating judgment land public
spirit, than the education of the children of
the city. AS question OF public policy, to
say nothing OF the higher moral and esthet-
ical considerations, 1t would be an inex-
cusable blunder to deal in stinted and mi
ser]y spirit with this great benefaction, and
we choose here and now to enter a protest,
in the name of the poor children OF Staun-
ton, and the best interests of the city,
against any tendency to hamper and embar-
rass the operations OF the City Public
Schools.

FEMALE EDUCATIoN,-While resOlu
ton was being considered in the Senate on
Monday last, to request the Superintendent
of Public Instruction to furnish the Senate
next year with his views and recommends
lions in reference to higher fema lie educa-
ton, Senator Paul moved to amend SO as
to include the cost attending tuition in
the female seminaries in this and other
States. In support of his amendment, Mr..
Paul said that he knew it cost one gentlemen
5000 for one years tuition in the case of a
young lady who went to one OF the Staun-
ton female schools. The next year the father
of the young lady sent two of his daughters
to school in New Jersey, and his whole ex
penses for the two girls was only $780,
Senator Koiner promptly and properly de-
Tended the Staunton schools, by stating that
young ladies could be well educated for 5000
to $500 per annum here, if it was desired.
The statement of Senator Paul, while net
so intended.is well calculated to Go injustice
to the Female Schools of Stanton. The
actual expense of tuition and board is no
greater here than at any other OF the first
class schools ofthe country, while here, like
anywhere else, if parents see proper to in
dulge their daughters, additional but not alb
solutely necessary outlays may be made
If strict economy is the rule with the parent,
it can be observed in StauIton as we'll as
anywhere else. II a liberal allowance is
made-a matter the parent has to determine
for other things than the school requires,
then the schools are not to blame.
The resolution Of Mr.. Smith, as amended
by Mr.. Paul was adopted-the matter of the
amendment being entirely foreign to the
business Of the Legislature. Why did not
the Senate embrace also the cost OF school
ing at the University, Washington and Lee
aud the Military Institute? 1t would have
been more relevant.
