Report mfthl V. Sntrrintmr!rnt. I .durational PrwcTeaa. (; radii Schools. Thort. r nix gmded nohools in tlie county. The trvt method of grading, however, in not "trictljr observed. A tnlrd qualification for promotion should be required before ueh chango bo made; but thin is not done, of necessity the classification must be defoctive. There is a building in progress in Osceola, which, when completed, will be one of the finest in the county and the schools of that place become graded. The question of grading is being ulso agitated in Lumber City. School House and Grounds. We hsve 144 school houses, containing 147 schools. Of this number 27 are totally unfit for such purposes, and comparing the old with the new style, even this number should be much increased. Kino new houses were erected during the past year. Two in Graham, three in Woodward, one in Penn, one in Osceola, one in Beoca ria and one in Bell. They reflect crodit upon the respective districts. Very few houses are furnixhod with the proper out-buildings most of them have only coal or wood houses. Generally, the grounds are insufficient and illy adapted for the proper amuse ment and exercise. It is hoped that patrons may soon manifest a disposi tion to have the school house and adjoining grounds such as may prove pleasant and cheerful to the pupils. Furniture and Apparatus. The new Bchool houses were furnished with good home-made furniture. In this respect all the modern buildings surpass those built five or six years ngo. Those houses reported unfit and some others, have miserable furniture, many of thorn having dunks and scats entirely too high, without supports for the backs of the pupils. For the convenience, comfort and health of the pupils, a reform in this respect cannot come too soon. Fifty-eight houses, under existing circumstances, may be classed as well supplied with suitable furniture, 49 with insufficient and of inferior quality, and 40 with injurious. Seven schools well provi ded with apparatus, 101 partially and 89 wholly without any. M uch remains to be done in this important work. One hundred and ten schools bare insufficient black-board surface, and even much of this unfit for use. All tho districts, but three, have a diver sity of text-books, rendering classifi cation almost impossible. This has a retarding influence upon the progress of the schools, heretofore not fully realized by directors and patrons. There is, however, a fair prospect now of having a uniform series adopt ed throughout the county. This will remove an evil that has hpcome very burdensome to many. AVe trust the directors will strictly adhere to the law and cause an immediate change, as it will give loss dissatisfaction than a gradual one. Qualifications and Salaries of Teach ers. It affords me much pleasure to spoak of the' great advancement made by many ot our teachers during the past year. A large majority of them are young and of little or to experi ence, but in a short time by their nntiring real and energy will become first class teachers. Too much praise cannot be given to those who thus realize their responsible positions. In few instances incompetent teachers have been employed because better could not be secured. The salaries have been increased only in a few districts, but not proportionate to the wages in other employments. Methods of Instructions. There is a disposition manifested by many toach- ers, to instruct thoroughly, having the pupils not only understand, but re-produce what tbey learn. A few, however, still adhere to the old man ner of hearing recitations, in a "par rot-like method. Yisitt of Directors. In a number of districts regular monthly visit were made by directors and patrons ; while in a few, visitation was entirely neglectod. I find frequent visits to be of good effect. It stimulates the teachers to labor more earnestly and faithfully, and renders the pupils more obedient and studious. Eduratioual work done by Superintendent. Conscious of the responsible posi tion, I entered upon its duties with no little degroe of anxiety ; and to add to this, I found most of the prominent and experienced teachers engnged in other and more lucrative employments leaving the schools, in this respect, even in a worse condition than they were before the establish ment ot the County Snporintendcncy, and to be supplied by those who wore inexperienced and poorly qualified. The necessity of qualifying them for their position was obvious, and acting upon this thought, I opened, on the 4th of- June last, a local Normal School, in CnrwenBville, which con tinned for 12 weeks. I wae assisted by Rev. A. II. Sombower. Seventy five students attended, of whom forty taucht last winter ; with few excep tions, all Ot theso, 1 am gmu 10 sny met with entire suocoss. From these results I was induced to open another school this spring to continue twonty weeks. I secured the servicos of, I'rof. I. S. Cioist, lute Professor of Natural Science in the State Normal School, at Millorsvillo, Penn'a., who Las proven himself one of the finest educators in the State; and by the deep interest be has manifested in behalf of tho teachers and public schools, be has gainod the esteem and approbation of not only the teacher but of many of the loading educa tional men of this county. Over one hundred students are in attendance, nearly all of whom purpose teaching the coming winter. The earnest and realous endoavors of those to improve thcmsclrc nfford prospocts full of promise, and 1 may bespeak, that ere long all of our schools will be snpplied by such efficient and eoalous teachers. Then, and not till thon, will tho ball pf education of this county, roll on, acquiring incrousod momentum, at each revolution. A moveraont in the county has been mado with a view of establishing a State Normal School in this district, although slow in its progress, wo are still hopeful in regard to its results. Twonty-two public, two special and five private examinations were hold; 170 apnlicant4 cxaminod, 162 provis ional certificates granted, 19 rejected find nine endorsed from other counties; !

I have every reason to believe that public senti ment in reference to the Common School system is much more favora ble than it was one year ago. In a few districts, however, tho Taluo of Common Schools is much underrated. I was generally accompanied by one or two directors and citir.ens. The citizens and directors are heartily co-oporating. 1 was everywhere mot by warm and truo hearted friends, who rave me a cordial welcome and many words of cheer. To tho direct-1 ors, teachers, citizens and scholars of ; the countv. for their ironerous hosiii- tality, I am under many obligations. Having devoted much of my time to the holding of Normal Schools, and thus qualifying teachers for their respective duties, of necessity could not visit schools as often as I could have done otherwise But now, hav ing a corps of good teachers, 1 shall be able after the close of this term, to dovote more time to visiting. One hundred and twenty schools openod daily by reading a portion of scrip ture. No County Institute was held, the County Normal School having removed the necessity for one. Work done by other Apeticlca. No aids other than the local Nor mal School in the county, except the Clearfield Academy, under the charge of Ucv. P. Ij. Harrison. The Princi pal, who is very earnest and zealous in promoting the advancement of education, has done a good and noble work, and greatly assisted roe by qualifying teachers for their responsi ble duties.

Before concluding this, my first an nual report, I would add, that the j-ear just passed has been one of edu cational revival in this county. Our teachers are growing more zealous and enthusiastic and laboring with commendable zeal and fidelity in the cause of common schools. Ihrectors are encouraging and holding out great er inducements to the faithful and successful teachers. The future is full of hope and promise.

G. yr. SNIPER, Co. Sup't, CLEARFIELD, Vorry 7flir on .Tf in infers and Ihrir iruiftt. I do not think that I ever regretted that 1 was not brought np for the ministry. 1 don't think tho ministry lost any thing by it cither. Yet I sometimes sympathized with the dominies, and have taken a deep interest in the dis cussion of your correspondents about ininisteis' salaries. A minister has to put up with a good deal. He can't smoke a cigar, Curl his hair, "Wear kid gloves, Take a drink, Kxpretts tiia n polities. Or go to the Opera, Without some blessed old Deacon, or otherwUs, raining a row ulnjut it, and boring the newspapers, or a Ciasuis or something or another. And now Borne old soreheads are growling about their pay. This brings up the wages question. As men of other callings have com bined to ruiso their salurics, the min isters ought to form a trades' union to regulate theirs. Even the homeo pathic doctors wont into a wages movement. That move has its advan tages. Making sickness more expen sive might encourage people to keep well. Ministers on the whole are much cheaper than doctors. And the worst of it is you can't get along without a doctor in the family. A minister' work wears better than a doctor's I called on a minister onco in com pany with Mrs. O'Lanus, just before she became Mrs. OL and in five minutes ho translated us from a state of single blessedness to the united state of wedlock. It was a very complete job and I think it will lust mo tor life. And it only cost me ten dollors, including an illuminated certificate. The consequences of that manfrvre have been expensivo. Hut that was none of the minister's business. It was my risk. The minister asked me before I was fully committed whether I was to take the responsi bility, and not till I had, in the pret ence of witnosses, declared my resolu tion was fixed, did be consign me to my fate. 1 bear no malice against him.

A correspondent at-Monroeville. Huron county, Ohio, furnishes the following bit of romance in real life, the facta of which, though too briefly related, yet contain enough to "point amoral,"ifnotto"adornaule." The correspondent writes: In the year lPO'.t, an old Uisn (John Wilson by name) and his wife came into this (Huron) county, from Cana da, bringing with theos an adopted child, named Margaret . rbortly after coming here, she became acquainted with and married a mas by the name of Edward Gray, tiraj, after living with her a abort time, repented his course, and, becoming tired of married life, went into theanny.-- Having sur vived the war, he took up his resi dence in Tennchse. where be was living at lust accounts. The wife being thus lrccd from all restraint by the ab sccnee of her Luttbaud in the army, became a common jrostitute, and en deavored to procure a living by bang, ing around the tamp, tbeo k.'ted at Monrocvillo and Nor walk. Bucom ing an intolerable nuisance, sbe was finally poized and tarred by command of the officer then commanding at Monrocville. The result was that she left here and sought hex old boms in Canada. Sbe had ttot been there long before she made tin acquaintance of a man by the name of Kli Hoane, wluira she married. After living with him a sufficient length of time, she became tho mother of i pretty little curly -haired girt, who aras ckriotened Alio. jlm ila Uiuo U kmm( acquainted with a voang man trota the State of New lork by the name of Edward Teeter, who had thrice jumed tiie bounty and bad evaded the law made and provided in such cases, by escaping to the (Queen's do minions, learning thsl he was about coming back to "the States," on a visit to his mother, the sought and gained jK-rmisxion of her husband to accompany him across the border to visit her foster parents, living in Huron county. Instead of visiting his mother, as he pretended, he came on here with her. After staying here about three weeks be swore out a license (he must have perjured him self) and was married. No thing stood lor about ten month, w hen a child was born to them. When the child was about two weeks old, bus band No. 2 turned up, ia search of his wife and child. Contrary to ex pectation, and w might aav human nature, he was willing to play second fiddle, and he continued with only a share of the woman whom he consid i cred as his wife, yrt he had no more . legal right too than buthand No. S. , This state of affairs not suiting the sense of propriety of the foster pa jrenta, wiih whom they were Maying, i legal advice was souit, which, com ! ing to the cars of the two. caused ' them to smell a large sized mice, and , fearing an investigation they de ! camped to parts unknown wife, two liustianus, una iwo ciu iren.
