The National MnperintpnilrnlN' Annorlnllon
also held an adjourned meeting In the third
Btory of the Normal School building at 8j-
o'clock. Thirty members were present. Presi
dent Bulkley presided.
E. E. White, editor of tho Ohio Educational

NATIONAL TEACHERS' ASSOCIATION.
Morning ScsMion.
President L. Van Bokkclen, Md., called the
National Teachers' Association to order at lOSJO
A. M. Rev. Samuel Lockwood, of Keyport, X.
J., offered the opening prayer.
Hon. Richard S. Field, Judge of the United
States District Court, Princeton, on behalf of the
New Jersey State Board of Education, and the
Trustee of tho State Normal School, tendered
to the association a cordial welcome to New
Jersey, to the capital city of tho State, and to its
formal School. Representing as they do the
geat educational interests of our eountn', he
lil tint. hut. feel ihitt thpv h:nl conferred 11
ereat honor In selecting this place for this
lng assembly. And yet there is a propriety
ness In this action. The State Normal
School of New Jersey had a claim upon them
that you should bo her guests. Dr. Hart, who
now presides over that institution, was one of
the original founders of the National Teachers'
Association. Professor Phelps, the gentleman
who formerly presided over it, was one of tho
thirteen who assembled at Springfield, Massa
chusetts, in 1859, at the very first meeting of the
Normal School Association, and the first meet
ing of that association, which exerted a marked
Influence, was held in this very room. New
Jersey, then, has a special interest in these
sessions.
President Bokkelen responded on the part of
the association. They had assembled here an
army of teachers a portion of a grand army
whose trophies arc strewn over the pathway of
history an army which marches without music
and banners but an army which achieves vic
tories that overthrow despotisms and build on
firm foundations governments of the people.
Their mission was to elevate and enlighten hu
manity. Beginning at the fountain head, they
sought to cleanse the turbid stream of social
degradation. Their work was to plant the seed,
which will germinate and grow into a wide
spreading tree that gives rest to the weary, and
bears fruit sweet and nourishing. They had
met for encouragement, and to exchange expe
riences. He would refer to the iuterest manifested by
our leading journals, and recognize with plea
sure the presence of the representatives of that
great American power, tho Press a power ex
erted earnestly and judiciously in the cause of
moral and mental progress. The Press of Ame
rica Tho daily newspaper press has been and
Is tho firm friend, the faithful expounder, the
advocate of free public schools, and as a con
vention of teachers he tendered their thanks to
its conductors. Tho power of the American
newspaper, indeed, has grown with the growth
of public schools, and depends upon it.
On motion of Professor Brooks, of Pennsyl
vania, it was resolved that an educational bureau
be constituted for tho present meeting, to assist
in furnishing teachers to school authorities, and
in procuring situations for teachers. Professor
Brooks was appointed chairman.
An Interesting half-hour's exhibition was
given by Miss Mlnnlo C. Sway.e, teacher of
elocution in the New Jersey Normal School, of
her method of instruction, illustrated by a class
of young lady pupils. Miss Lizzie Johnson read
Poe's poem of tho "Raven," and Miss Swayze
afterwards gavo "After the Battle." Miss Saide
M. Webb read "The Children," from Dickens.
Professor Ervin Leigh gave practical illustra
tions of his system of phonetic vocal culture.
Ills class was composed of little girls and boys
from the Soldiers' Orphans' Home of Treutou.
The exercises were entertainingly rendered, and
showed that the youngest children may be easily
taught correct vocalization, pronunciation, and
reading In accordance with tho strictest scien
tific classification.
Messrs. Fields, Osgood & Co., by agent, an
nounced that they would send a complimentary
gratuitous subscription for 6ix months to their
magazine, Our Young Folks, to all teachers or
superintendents who would furnish their ad
dress; also authorizing any superintendent to
fend the address of any teacher not present who
would receive tho same.
Afternoon HcmMoh.
Z. Richards, .Superintendent Public Schools,
Washington, read a paper upon -Primary
Schools Radical Defects and Radical Reme
dies." He did not agree with the prevalent im
nBlrn that wo have a perfect system of edu
cation in this country, nor was It borne out by
f.,,.a Although there was mm ii to commemi,
there was much to blame. The irksomcness of
quietness for hours In a scuooi room, uie
. f,i il of nonsensical text-books, tho memo.
rlzing of a senseless repetition of words, tho
neglect to impress upon pupils a strict regard
for truth, aro all evils needing correction, lo
remedy these tho necessities are" competent
4iw.ra a irood system of class-books, play
room separate from class-rooms, and apparatus
for object teaching.
tw Daniels. Green, Barnnger, Sears,
Hurd, and Miss Schofield debate! the subject at
1C,,f' r a Field ably discoursed, at great
length! upon the "Obligations of Christianity to
Learnlnir." He believed Intellectual culture to
bo friendly to religion, furnishing a favorable
soil for the reception of seeds of Christian truth.
The greatest and most useful of the Hebrew
kings were tho cultured David and Solomon.
The highly educated Saul of Tarsus, and not one
of the illiterate fishermen of Galilee, was chosen
the great apostle to the Gentiles, and many pro
minent early Christians have immortalized their
names by their learning. Erasmus, Luther,
Calvin, and John Knox were ripe scholar.--.
Learning does not make men proud; true science
is always humbling. To enter into its kingdom
each must become a little child. Tho notion that
pure learning Is adverse to religion is a most
mischievous and false, doctrine. It has hindered
and repressed popular education: those who hold
and act upon It strike at the very root of our
common-school system.
KvrnitiK ScMMlnn.
Taylor 1 Fall was thronged this evening. Judge
Xarr, on behalf of the Common Council and the
citizens of Trcntom, tendered the hospitalities
of the city to the Teachers' Association. Presi
dent Bokkclen briefly and appropriately re
sponded. Superintendent Wickersham, of Pennsylvania,
lectured upon "Tho State In its Relation to
Higher Education." He argued at length that
each individual has a right to claim an elemen
tary education. The power of the State to pro
vide for this is no longer doubted. American
States arc influenced thereto by the motives of
the worth of education and of the policy of
establishing institutions for popular instruction.
He claimed the necessity of higher education as
a necessary complement of an elementary one.
Our States each require common schools, high
schools, colleges, and a university, founded and
supported by the State, upon the model of the
great universities of Germany.
Miss Mary L. Runyon, a graduate of the Tren
ton Normal School, read effectively Trowbridge's
"Vagabonds." Laikd.

New Yokic, August l'J, 1'..
.llta Anthony
is not a woman given to weeping, but she might
well weep at the idea of being denied a hearing
in a Congress which admitted a dozen colored
people as delegates, and excluded one of the
purest-motived and hardest-working repre
sentatives of woman's cause in, e.rtcnso When
she docs shed tears it is generally to some pur
pose; but I rather think that even had she alto
gether failed in obtaining a hearing she would
have wrapped herself up in her ludomitableness
and bided her time, serenely trustful that all
would work around riLrht. She believes that all
things work together for good to them that write
for the Revolution.
IHcRr. Cho.v-Clu'W anil SlnK-.IIan,
after studying our civilization, have at last gone
home, meaning to stop at Chicago by the way,
Chicago and New York being respectively the
aphelion and the perihelion, so to speak, of
morality in the United States. The two celestial
gentlemen have been feasted and flattered while
here, and have every reason to bear away with
them the kindest views of such titbits of civili
zation as they came across. They experienced
nil the honors and horrors of being distinguished,
for every time they entered a theatre, the play
from that moment lost Its attractions, and their
appearance upon Broadway was the signal for
the block along which they were endeavoring to
progress to become (itite impassable.
Soon after the
Mnrtyrilnm of Abraham Lincoln
any quantity of New York merchants had sent
to them a number of blank form lists which
were intended for subscription purposes in order
to erect a monument to his memory. About oue
hundred thousand dollars in cash was collected.
What has become of it? Has the monument
been erected? Are any serious steps being taken
towards the erection of a monument? Is it even
talked of? With republics, as with individuals,
s not gratitude an nfteeling sense of hmw
favors? Is not all that Lincoln did for his
country swept away and forgotten, now that his
widow is left comparatively penniless, and the
city In which multifarious plans for a monument
were proposed has only given birth to swindling
associations for pocketing public money by
means of a patriotic sham? I think so.
I perceive that
.Mnrlc Twain
(Mr. Samuel L. Clemens) has purchased an in
terest in the Eriiress of Buffalo, and intends de
voting himself to journalism. If "Mark Twain''
would only devote himself thoroughly to any
thing, he would please his well-wishers, lie is
something of aNew-Yorkism, for hit has written
extensively for New York papers, and I believe
made this city his home for a little while. He
Is among the best some good judges account
him the eery best of living American humor
ists. The only fault managing editors of news
papers find with him is, they say, his unrelia
bility in keeping his business engagements. The
eccentricity of him genius is that after having
made arrangements to accept an article
or a series oi articles irom mm, you
cannot feel absolutely certain as to
when they will reach your hands. He has
wasted so many good intentions that he might,
with advantage, have made a street paving con
tract with the devil, and paved Avernus with
cheap, substantial Nicolson. He has travelled
all over the world, is no longer a young man,
can "sling ink" as quickly as a Parisian fenille
tonUte, and get off, at abort notice, an indefinite
amount of what is technically termed, in news
paper parlance, ''copy," or "trash." Almost any
daily or weekly publication in New York would
enter into a permanent contract with him on any
reasonable terms. Ho prefers, however, to
write little, and jiwt when he pleases. Some
times iij pleases him not to write for several
months, and then people open their eyes and
wonder what has become of Mark Twain." To
day you hear of him as being in San Francisco;
when ho next turns up it will be in Japan; in a
little while he may be in Australia; and the only
wonder Is that he did not go with Mr. Seward to
Alaska. I should like to read his account of that
expedition In the true ".Mark Twain" style, for my
personal admiration of his wit is immense.
The Committees of the Common Council,
who seemed to have nothing else to do but meet
and talk mistily about the new Post Office, have
at length adjourned sine die. The object of
their meetings was of course to obstruct tho
erection of tho Post Office. The point In dis
pute was in fact a very small one. So that we
have a new Post Office it matters llttlo whether
it is a few feet nearer tho new City Hall or the
Hi raid buildings. The committee thought there
was money in any delay they could bring about
in its erection. Their purposes have been de
feated, however, and tho work goes bravely on
so bravely, Indeed, that tho fence that has been
erected all around the new Post Office ground Is
on a lino with tho curbstone edge, and passers-by
wjio arc not extremely short-sighted nm the
risk of being crushed to death or horribly
mangled between the fence nnd th ) cars that
pass along that side of Park row. The accident
has not yet arrived, but is probably on its way.
The daily Times, of which Mr. Daly, manager
of the Fifth Avenue Theatre, was formerly
The Tlicnlrlcnl Eriilor,
and which he left in consequence of a "collision
of opinion" between him and the cditor-in-chlef,
is treating the adapter of Leah and the author of
Vndi r the Uasliijht rather shtshin&ly. This Is
one of those evidences of small spite which are
more common in New York journallmi thau In
anv other city of the 1'nion. Mr. Hou-e, the
new theatrical critiuof the Timet; should remem
ber that some people may discover him to be a
glass house, and that therefore lie shouldn't
throw stones.

arc no longer the thing. 1 hey are playj l-ou'.
They are "slow." Xow-a-days we rob in broad
daylight, in full sight of tho police, and form of
our captives a bastion on which we present pis
tols at the aghast public. I'uder these circum
stances two burly thieve have just carried off
a case of silks from the front of a store in
Broadway. The history of the past year's out
rages, in this nnd similar particulars, reflects
severely upon Kennedy, who, although he is
getting rapped on the knuckles on all sides, pre
serves a high degree of imperturbability in his
Brussels-carpeted den at police headquarters.
