The Principal of the Preparatory Depart,
ment OF Adger College bcgs us to say he is
in his chair and was never n bcttcr condition
for hard work. lie scuds his kndcst regards
to his former and present patrons and insists
on having his department filed with
young Oconccans. lie cntcrtains somc hieh
notions of our mountain talent and designs

We are glnd to state that tho principal of this
department the last year, by energy and
tact, put in the college classes twenty ono
boys These boys, Of course. had every at,
tenton tho year round and they studied
with vim. lie now has another class that
he intends pushing onward with the same
object in view. Parents should avail thcm>
selves of the Advantages Of this school and
fill Adgor College up with Oconcc talent.
We attended the examination of this depart
mcnt last commencement and arc FREQ to
say his school was O grand success. His
class room was q pattern Of ncatncss and
good order. In fact, We saw the clements Of
success in his manner of government and
case of communication. Every boy occupied
bis assigned seat and had his own hook to
hang his hat and sachcl upon. His tcachng
is largely upon blackb board and by lecture.
We again specially noticed that his classcs
changed seats from Rotations to their accus,
toned seats upon their tip tocs. There wns
no confusion or noise in passing over tho floor

the benefits of able and experienced

A Mistake,

Our valuable contemporary the Yves
Chester Daily Village Record, ;
says that under the pressure of public
{: oinion and perhaps some regard FOL
the U. 5. laws the Levy Court
placed large number of names upon
the assessment last week and then il
adds, that, "iS now seems probable
that all of those who have been omitted
by the assessors will get their names
on the lists, and some new trick 10 de-
fraud tn colored men will have to be
dsvised ny the Democratic managers"
The editor of the Record " has some
personal knowledge Of how things are
done in Newcastle County, and we
with him will not be much surprised at
the invention of another trick as stated,
but he is giving the Levy Court too
much credit when he holds out any
nope Whatever that any thing like all
of the unassessed will succeed in get
ting their names On the lists this ses-
sion. The Levy Court has been in
session eight days in which time it has
not assessed more than three hundred
voters. As the Levy Court meets on
Tuesdays and adjourns on fridays,
there will not be more than eight days
left in which voters can be assessed
which according to the past would only
allow time for TIE assessment of three
hundred more, making six hundred in
all during the whole session. As there
were at least fifteen hundred MASSES.
cd voters in the County when the
March session Of the Levy Court com
menced, there will he nine hundred
still lef. of ths assessment when the
lists must close on the last of March,
Those having the assessments in charge
do not expect to get all assessed, but
they are simply trying to keep every
spare moment of the Levy Court en-
ployed in placing all the names possible
lPon the lists.

liam Il. Remble anl three others, find
ing that an attempt at a defense would
be useless, Immediately plead guilty to
charges of similar crimes, and now a

Governor to pardon these miserable
men even before sentence is pronounced
upon them. We hope Governor Hoyt
will listen to no such appeal and let
them have a taste Of the punishment
they 50 richly deserve for their az rsvat.
ed crimes. That the most OF these self.
convicted men are Republicans is bat
an additional reason why they should
be punished like any other criminal.
The Republican party has no uae for
such men, and cannot afford to con.

that Republican Goysrnor will allow

THE "Delawarean" with considerable
SARCASM alludes TO the composition Of
the Republican party and hypocritical.
ly points to the time when the opposi-
tion to the Democrats in Delaware num-
bered in its ranks many Of the purest
men and brightest intellects Of the
State, but Low it says:
1.-THE Democratic party of Delaware is
confronted today by motley crowd,
led on by men of low ideas and vulgar
thoughts, and destitute Of that high
character which inspires esteem or com
mands even self.respect."
We suppose then that this is the e..
timation in which the "Delawarean"
holds such men as N. B. smithers, Hon.
J. W. Houston, &c orge V. Massey, +.
B. Causey, D. W. Layton, Hon. E. G.

Pont, George W. Bush, Charles Warner.
L. F. Riddle and host Of others whom
we might name. As the above named
gentlemen are amongst the most stall
wart Republicans of the State. we have
no hesitation whatever, comparing them
in ability, character and integrity with
such Democratic leaders as Eli sauls-
bury, T. F. Bayard, the immaculate

SOME person has sent to this Office a
package of pamphlets which attempt
to prove that the soldiers owe their
pensions to the Democ ratio party.
This is probably true, and so migrate
full are the soldiers that very few will
thank the Democrats for shooting off
their legs and arms, or starving them
to skeletons that they might get pen
sion. Indeed there are few who would
not give up their pensions for the res
toration of health and limbs of which
they were deprived by the Dem ocrats
of the States expected to give Han
cock 1873 electoral votes.-MeadviUt

Gen. McComb, and we should be glad
to publish his letter in full were we
able to crowd 1t into our columns.
After passing the Republican and
Democratic parties in review, and
showing why he deems it wise to act
with the Republicans, he concludes
with the following paragraph:
With the candidates l have nothing
to do. The one elected will obey the
commands of his party. We want
peace, and measures that will build
up our industries and promote our
commerce. Intelligence, wealth and
prosperity will follow. The party that
abolished slavery, that has given us
what we have of protection, that
created tho greeuback currency and
furnished the members of the Supreme
Court that pronounced it constitu-
tional, that maintains equal rights and
impartial justice is the party into
whose hands the destinies Of this great
Nation may be confded. At least
would rather trust it than the party
that has heretofore antagonized all
these great measures.

The following is a text of the communica-
ton:
INDIANA, PA, September 3, 1880.
James Mosgrove, Dear Sir: 1t has be-
come customary in many parts of the
country for opposing candidates for Con-
gress to travel together over the district
and address the people alternately from
the same platform at the same meeting.
This is usually instructive and entertain
ing to the public. take pleasure in pro-
posing that you and meet the people OF
this district at the same meeting and adj
dress them alternately from the same
! platform on the practical questions Of the
| pending campaign. l suggest that these
meetings be held in country towns and
| principal places of the different counties
| in this district. If you prefer, 1 will
travel with you all over the district.
observe you have already been addressing
| meetings and 50 have !, hence my prop
osition to address the same meeting.
have not heard any of your addresses, bu
remember you were candidate agains
me in 1878. 1 observe you ran npon thu
following platform or pledge:
PARKER, Pa, Monday, Aug, 5, 1873.
[Pledge.[
/, James Mosgrove, do pledge my sacreC
honor to support the platform of th'
National party adopted at Toledo, Feb
rnary %, 1878, and the principles set fortl
in the platform of the National Greenbacl
Labor party of Pennsylvania, adopted a
Philadelphia, May 8, 1878, and I Jtrthe
pledge mySeg as aVilLlng to use every hon

insure the success Of the National Green

proposed discussions by all courteous
parliamentary methods To discover to the
public whether YOU are now aiding the
parties trying to elect General Weaver on
his platform, or General Hancock on his,
and which YOU will llYTsupport.
In return for this privilege OF comment'
ing on your.pledge or platform, l invite
to the fullest and freest discussions of my
record and utterances in public life. AS
you may he aware, have been honored
with a seat in the State Senate, in the
recent Constitutional Convention, and am
now i'm my second term in Congress. In
all of these positions l have participated
my voice and vote i'm legislation affecting
ali the people in their varied interests.
nv conduct and record in these positions
are of easy access, and IL, in any way
inimical to the public, welfare, can be
readily shown. l may say also, here that
in the proposed discussions L shall advo-
cate on the financial question the old
fashioned constitutional rule of specie as
the basis for all our currency, as against
any fiat or rpay-as-you-please basis for any
money system, which latter l am in
formed you have in your late, as well as
present canvass, practically advocated. l
have Thought the proposed discussions
can be conducted with that propriety and
courtesy becoming gentlemen candidates
for high and respectable stations. l hope
YOU agree with me that a candidate for a
seat in the American Congress can better
afford TO be defeated than TO be elected
with any portion of his constituency mis-
apprehe nding his convictions and intend
ed conduct on any of the political issues o.
the hour. BE good enough to reply.
shall cheerfully meet you at any time tC
arran ge details. Sincerely yours,

bach friends. Greenbacers, this letter
is an earnest appeal from one of your
party, who asks you to look at the

He asks you in the name of justice
and as you love your country to lay
aside former issues and, as he would
do were he once more among you, vote
the straight Republican ticket. Like
General r. B. McComb, (whom most
of you will remember we'll as being

grove, and to whom you listened to
with such INTEREST," the author of this
letter sees other and more importan
issues at stake. AS to the gentleman
integrity and honesty of purpose, there
is no question and while we would b.
glad to give his name, yet there arr
probably not score of voters in tn
county who do not lmow who tn
author is. Read it and reflect upol
it, and cast your votes accordiuglys
