The first meeting Of the H. @. 7, A. for
1850 convened at the NJ. E. Church at
Hillsboro on Saturday, October 18th.
The association was called to order by
w. A. Rogers. An instrumental duet
was executed in neat manner by Miss
Bessie McNicol. Devotional exercises
were conducted by Prof. J. B. Wright, OF
Wilmington College. The teachers sang
"what q Friend we have in Jesus" after
which we were very highly entertained
in q courteous address Of welcome by
Mayor H. @. Dawson, Of Hillsboro. Mr..
Dawson made us feel at home at the be-
ginning, and afterwards gave us a feast
of literature and history.
Mr.. R. B. Barrett, in his usual pleas
ant manner, delivered neat response to
the address. i
This was followed by the inaugural ad-
dress by Pres. R. B. Farley. Mr.. Fair
ley chose as his subject Morality" and
showed conclusively that teachers
character should be beyond reproach.
A committee consisting Of Messrs. G..
8. Swadley, R. B. Barrett and E. g. Smith
was appointed to solicit members. The
association then adjourned to meet at
1:30. The afternoon session was opened
by beautiful vocal duet sang by Misses
Oldaker and link, after which Miss
Winnie Anderson, of Greenfield, read a
carefully prepared paper on 1.-THE
Teachers Influence"
Miss Anderson depicted plainly the
influence which the teacher wields, and
how he can be either the means Of doing
a great deal of good or bad, as he wills.
Prot. J. B. Wright filed all expecta
tions with his paper-"A Pilgrimage tc
Concord" Mr.. Winget clearly portrayed
to the teachers, the home, surroundings
character and life of such men as Emer
son, Thorean and Alcott that he gleanee
by q recent visit to that country.
The paper was instructive and enter
tanning throughout. The committee OF
numbers reported fifty names. Thank
were returned to all that gave assistance
in any way to make the first meeting
success, and when it adjourned al
teachers present felt that it had been
day we'll spent. R. B. FARLEY, Pres.

The "drivel about George Roush,"
found in the columns Of the Nxws.HER.
AID and silently passed by our CO.
temporary, for the reason, as the Gazette
says, that George Roush is not running
for Office" may seem at first reading to
be very proper way of treating the
matter. But II it be remembered that
we were not speaking Of the personal OF
any candidate, not even Of the candidate
for Sheriff, but Of the record Of Sheriff
Mackerley and Of George Roush Is his
deputy, who, in that capacity, stood in
the same relation to the people and law
as Mr.. Mackerley himself, for the act of
the agent is recognized as the act of the
principal. Now that being true, we
have the Hillsboro Gazette as authority
that the Deputy Sheriff OF this county
captured the prisoner, Ed. Blair, for
whose capture the County Commission
ers offered reward OF $500, and for
whose arrest Sheriff Mackerley offered a
reward Of $50. The Hillsboro Gazette OF
August 9th, while giving credit to Off.
GERS who were engaged in the hunt for
Ed. Blair says, that "Deputy Sheriff
George Roush and Tom Smith made the
capture" It that we're true, on the 9th
OF August last, why is it not true to-day?
And why is the Gacette afraid to tell its
readers just how that $4OO was divided ?
George Roush, standing in the :same
relation to the law and people as Sheriff
Mackerley, the record OF the one in ref
erence to the Blair capture, and divide
Of the reward, is the record of the other,
and we insist that the people are entitled
to plain statement Of the whole mat
ter.
We claim that if the capture Of Ed.
Blair was made by the Deputy Sheriff
land again we refer to the Gozette), and
the escape Of that prisoner took.:place
during the needless absence Of that same
Deputy, that no part of the $400 should
have been paid to said Deputy--if it was
so paid-and a statement from the Demo
cratic organ, which proposed some time
ago to tell the whole truth in regard tc
the business OF the Sheriff's Office, GER
tainly was expected to be Forthcoming
when called for. We have little hope
Of receiving true statement of the.cast
from our cotemporary, yet it should bt
borne in mind by the electors Of thiI
county that prisoners-and more thar
one or two of them-have escaped from
the Jail during the management of th'
present Sheriff, who is sterling Demo
crat, and that reward of $500 had to b.
paid out OF the county treasury flor tn
capture of one of them, and that there i
no little mystery in connection with tn
distribution of said $4OO, or as to whethe
| the $50 promised by the Sheriff wa
!: paid, and to whom, and that when q
explanation of the whole matter and
statement as TO distribution is aske
D for by this paper from Democrat
' authority, we are answered by the state
I ment that George Roush is not!runnin
l for Office. Well, we know that. Bu
b the other matters inquired about we di
not know, nor or we likely to be inform
ed. It is as great secret as the metf
DDS the Democrats are adopting in tn
county in the management of their can
paign.

THE WORLDS FAIR.
No Definite Plans Yet Formed by New
 York's Finance Committee.

No Definite Plans Yet Formed by New York's Finance Committee.
 NEW YORK, Oct 9-The Executive Committee of the Worlds Fair reported to the Finance Committee that after a careful eNamina ton of the wholo subject the committee was of tho opinion Shat no complete financial scheme could be determined upon until 1t was approxi- mately known what was the aggregate amount of money proposed to be raised. There were three sources from whick the necessary funds for the exposition could be derived when the sum req quired was ascertained, viz.:
 1st. Government and city aid
 2nd. Sale of bonds or other evidences of pecuniary interest in the enterprise
 3rd. A preliminary fund with which to secure inauguration of the work and to provide against tho possibility of ul- tlmate loss, and which would be repre- sented by stock. The amount to be ob- talned through the last two channels would of course depend upon the fnan- clal aid and other assistance to be de. rived from the General Government.
 The first step of importance, in the opinion of tho Committee, is that Con- gress give the exhibition a national and international character by appropriate legal enactment which should at the same time determine it's location in this the principal port of entry and metro polls of tho country. It Is also deemed essential by the Committee that the city and state of New York should encourage the Exposition by every means possible.

A LONG TRIP FROM CALIFORNIA.
She Arrives In North Branch, N. J., Alter
 Spending Two Years on the Road.

Picked UT in New Brunswick By the
 dition-shc Endured HardshIps that
 Would Do Credit to Professional
 Tramp.
 NEW BRUNswICK, N. J., Oct. 9.-The Overseer of the Poor of this place has in his charge young girl with history that would do credit to a professional tramp, consisting, as it does, of all sorts of hardships in her life on the road.
 The girl, who says her name is Mary keper, Is barely twelve years old. She was found crying on the street yester- day. and she presented a very pitiful appearance. At the police station Mary said. that her father, John Roper, had died five years ago in California. Her mother, who was consumptive, did not long survive the shock, and she, too, died, leaving Mary in the care of an aunt. Within year the aunt also died, and for the following two years Mary was cared for by the neighbors. She had just passed her tenth birthday, when it occurred to her to run away and come East with no definite object in view.
 One fine day she hopped on freight train and began her long journey. She said the brakemen, as a rule, were very kind to her and gave her food and a place to sleep in the cars, but there were some who chased her from tho cars, and many weary mile she was forced to tramp until another train would happen along. During these tramps she begged food, sometimes sleeping at night in haystack or barn, and at other times in a good warm bed when some hospitable farmer would take her into his house.
 At many places she stopped for weeks at time, helping the farmers wife in the housework and receiving some in structions in cooking, so that now she is quite housekeeper, and boasts her skill in making buiscuits. After several weeks of quiet farm life the old desire for travel would come upon her, and she would quietly depart and resume her journey. It was nearly two years after leaving her California friends that she entered that quiet Jersey town of North Branch. Here she remained a few days subsisting on charity. On Saturday she boarded a coal train at Elizabeth and from that place to New Brunswick she rode and walked, arriving hero in the condition described.

MIR. RANDALL'S HEALTH. Conflicting Reports About the Ex-Speak-
 CTS Present Condition.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Oct 9.-It Is feared by the friends of ex-Speaker Randall that his condition is growing serious. For the past few days he has suffered great pain. A violent attack of diarrhoea has greatly weakened him. He suffered so severely yesterday that opiates had to be administered to induce sleep.
 MT. Randalls case has been mat ter of anxiety among his friends ever since his return from Washington to Wallingford, and from time to time visitors to the latter place have shaken their heads and said that they feared the great man would never take his place in the House again. At other and recent times Mir. Randall has been in visible to his closest friends.
 later report says that Congressman Randall Is not in as precarious con- dition at present as was reported His physician, Dr. slartin, said this morn ing: '1t is true that the statesman had an attack of diarrhea, but it is not serious, and otherwise his health is good. 1 have just arranged with him to go to Washington on Thursday, and everything is in readiness for the trip. !"
