SCHOOL HATTERS* TEACHERS' ASSOCIATIONS. Let *s, then, he up and doing, With heart lor Buy fide; is;ill achieving, still pursuing. Learn to tabor and to wait.— Lougf The most important crnsjderation devolving upon the instructor of the rising generation, is the maintaining of sodi a discipline that will •enable bin; o ke

e fresb vitior into those who otherwise woul--> be leth argic and inactive, and by this meaDs create an cxictcment upon school subjects, which is as much to be desired as any otber consideration pertaining to the school system. Our county, it is said by many of our sister counties, is a bundled per centum behind the times in school affairs. I an> scrry to make a reiteration of ibis charge, but I have to meet it so frequent ly, that I believe tbe best plan decidedly, is to let those who are interested in the noble cause 4>f education know how they are regarded by their neighbors, which information (if they are uut already acquainted with the fact) 1 hope will redouble their efforts iu advancing the common cause. I hope, yea, I pray that every teacher within the limits of Bedford CouDty will make evcty honorable effort so organize a Teachers' Asso ciation in his district, and endeavor, if pes.-i --ele, to get up an excitement on the subject of Education, and not only benefit himself, but make every effort to snow the citizens of his immediate neighborhood the necessity for such an Association. Director?, ia many instances, are opposed to allowing teachers the necessary time it would require to hold such meetings, although the decisions of the Superintendent of Common Schools, p. 108, clause 391, says: "■Tmcheia should organize and attend these In stitutions, and if would be well for the Direc tors to soecify this obligation in the contract, and ALLOW THEM A CERTAIN' PORTIOK OF THEtlt TIME FOR THIS PURPOSE. TtOCherS should devote every other Saturday to lnsti tutts, and should have the remaining Saturdays to themselves. The schools will be. greatly ben efited by this policy" But if Directors will not allow a portion of time, as specified in the Decisions, do uot allow this simple circum stance to deter you for one instant, but meet every alternate Salurdsy, which they necessa rily must allow you, or at night, end s'rain ev ery nerve to accomplish the end so much to he desired, and if you are now slightly or even greatly incommoded, remember that a day is earning f.ts*, when you shall rcceiva your re ward. Labor no v, and future generations will applaud your zeal and admire your integrity of purpose.— J 11 Durbo'Tow.
