It Is characteristic of Ihe American people that thoy nlwnys run Into extremes they vibrato llkR tho pendulum from otit sldo to tha other hover stopping to move) In one direction till somo foredt bftcn slrongjr than gravltationj brihgs them back ngnln, but only to push them on lo tho opposite ex treme. This is truo of tho teaching in our schools, Ten years ago, In tho ago of mental arithmetic nnd object teaching) nnd during tlio reign oftho Green's Analysis 111 English grammar, a man who had sound views on tlieso subjects was generally considered ns far behind tho age ns ho was ahead of it. Now wd bahish mental arithmetic from our schools nnd grow wild over lnnguago lessons, itc. Wo might ns well attempt to calculato tho probabilities of tlio weather for next year as try to foretell what tlio "topic of tho day" will bo in our schools two years hence. But this evil shows Itself especially In the financial management of our school funds. Eight yenrs ngo, when money was not as rare tin article ns it is now, echools wero in the hands of men who, in the iiamoof cdu- cntioii,robbed tho taxpayers by their extrava gances in putting tip expensivo buildings nnd thus burdened tho community Willi a icavy debt. Now tho hard times havo so niluenced our jwlitira that wo havo voted those men out of offico and havo voted in tlmso who, in tho name of economy, rob tlio teachers and thopupilsofourschoolsto favor tho tax-payers. Tho former robbed Peter to pay Paul, tho latter turn nml rob Paul to iav Peter. In districts where tho neonlo wero Hills burdened with heavy debts m years past, we can not find en much fault witli tho men, iu whoso hands tho schools at present are, if they do reduce salaries somewhat nnd shorten tho school term to makenn honest ellbit to relievo tho people oT oppressive debis. But in districts that aro 1'rco from tlebts and that have no heavy expenses, in tlio way of putting up ot repair ing school buildings thcro is no excuse for nny such economy. llio district ol .Mahoning has had no ilebts for many years. It has none now. There s generally n surplus In tho trcosury nt the mil of tiie Echool vcar. Tlio men In whose- lands tho schools wero in past vcars deserve great credit for their careiul financial man agemcnt. 'ilio sehool-tnx is low. llcnoo there is no excuso nt nil for beine so unreas onable us to rcduco teachers salaries from year to year on the pica that tho times arc iaril. Wo presume that, besides tho necessity of .icimr econonuca . tnero aro several other consideration that aro'usually taken into account in fixing tlio salaries ofour teachers. (1). ihe teachers ot Mahoning torthe last icwycarsaiircsnu.il in mo district. They boarded at homo and paid but littlo or notli- ng lor their board, ihe directors jtist made illowanco for this nhd reduced their salaries accordingly. So that the district nnd not tho teachers enjoyed llio ucnclit of their par Anla n-Anw.c,l TI ..I!, .nil.. M..ln I. cuts' generosity. It virtually amounts to this, that tho teachers paid theirboard to the uisirici wiuist ineir parents lurnlsued it This is scarcely rendering unto "Ciesar tlio things that nro Crcsnr's." (2). Thcro is n fovliuz amonir manv pen ile that tho teachers ofour schools ought to receive lio nioro pay than any ordinary day laborer. A good hired man can be obtain ed for $12 iter month nml board : hence cachcrs ought to havo only about $22 to per month without hoard, Tho feeling, wo suppose, springs not so much Ironi u sense of justice as Ircm a feeling of jealousy between tlioso Who labor in tlio school-room nd tlioso who work in tlio field. It is not oa y to mako clear to somo people tho in justice oi mis. incy lorgct unit skilled la bor everywhere commands hiclicr wn-res than unskilled labor. Their loiie would lold good if, after t lie crops of tho season nrc ..uui-iuii tit, ittu M-itouftiireciors couui ask larmcrs for their lined men to take charge of tho schools. (.!.) It is sometimes said that thcro nrc so many applicants that teachers can easily be obtained lor very low salaries, and it io?o that havo churgo of tho schools tiro not illing to leach lor tho salaries paid them. it is an easy matter to cet those who will. Tltis, of course, is true, But, if yourCariien- r is nut willing to work for hflv cents a iay, you can easily get one Who wil woric r loriy cents only ho never learned tho trade. II your shoemaker charges vou too much, you can easily find ono who will mako a pair of boots a dollar cheaper only o can't mako a fit. If vou tako a fever. nd you don't feel like paying $2.00 to have goon physician intend you, you can easily get ono to como for less, butyou must not be surprised jf ho prescribes cattle ixiwdcr. Wo havo no doubt that tenors can bo ibMined for S17 or S18 per month, but we eniuro lo say mat, with tho exception ol uosu tew wno aio compelled uv circum stances to teach for almost any salary, the senoois woiini no iteiter without teachers. More good would bo accomplished i f teachers wero employed for $40 iter month aud the schools wero open only tlirco months, than can bo accomplished by employing teachers for paltry salaries sorjivo months. Tliero is no reason why tho schools of -Hamming should not bo among tho beet in tlio county. Tho district is tiblo to pay sal aries sufficient lo securogood teachers. For tho last threo years and over there was a select school in tlio district, in tho summer, mat gavo me teachers nn opjiortuiiity not only of reviewing and studying more tho roughly tlio branches required lor tho an nual eKiiiniuatinns, but also of studying somo of the higher brunches ami thusqiiali fying themselves better for tho work ol the school-room. This school, now under tho charge of Trof. A. S. Weber, a member of mo senior class in i ranUlm nntl .Marshall college, and nn experienced teacher, afford tho opjiortuniiy to students ol preparing for the sophomore clas ill college. With these facilities for improvement, Mahoning has had for the last two years, somo teachers worthy of better salaries than they received. But they cannot bo kept permanently for low salaries. It is probn bio that somo of tlio beet teachers ol tho dis trict will go elsewhere tho coming fall, and, or course, their places will bo filled by those who can't get iositions in districts where better salaries are jwiid. Tho salary for last year was $25 per month. It is lo be hoiml that it will be raised at least to $28 or 30 for tho coming term, anil that the schools be given into tho hands or the teachers who Isold tho best cer tificates. Itisbutjtlstherotoslale that tllcro aro always men in tho Board who work hard lor tho interests oftlie schools ami whoopjKWO any unreasonable reduction in teachers' sal aries. We hopo there will bo an eil'ort made in the future to clict enough men of this character to havo a majority of them in the Board. Tho reewiisibilities of a school di rector are too great to allow tho offico to fall into tho hands of anybody. Times nro be ginning to get better, and we can afford to have men in the school board who are wil ling to pay liberal salaries and secure good teachers. Diuvjiois. A't-hqlU-1lllllill Scri'l'llillL'k.

Philadelphia Lctlqcri July 2T: Thcro is littlo of importnnco to report iu tho anthra cite coal trado for tho jiast week. Every thing in and about it is quito dull. Tho principal feature, and that which most ot- tracto attention among operators, is, will there bo a suspension of coal production ? The opinion is general Hint tho future oftho trado will bo materially strengthened by a two weeks' suspension, but a suspension of production will not tako place Uhles3 all tho principal coal regions freely participate in t. This is not probable, hardly possible, at this time. President Gowcn, early in tlio year, speaking for llio Schuylkill region, gavo asurances to tho miners and work men of that rcgiott that work at all tho Coal and Iron Company's mines would bo con tlnuous throughout the coal year. It is even now understood that tho president of the Reading Railroad Company favors continu- ng on work under llio belief that tho trado will woru itself looso In that Way more satis factorily and sooner than by a suspension which, In stiffening the prico of coal tempo rarily, would unsettle wages as well as all transportation chargesj nnd generally do- rango tho business for tho rest of the year. In dividual operators, however, asa class favor suspension, not that there is au overstock of coal beyond tho demand of orders to take it out oftho market, or that prices nrc lower, but that prices, nro too low for ill cost of pulling coal in llio market. Higher prices havo bceii hoped for tlio month of Augilst, and this hopo the condition of the trado for the past two weeks has weakened Fifty thousand tons of coal wero sold at auction Wednesday by Henry Draper for tho Delaware, Lickawanna and Western Railroad Company, Tho sale took place, iew lork, and tho attendance was very slim us compared witli previous sales. Tho bidding was not very spirited, but prices ad vauccd until they showed an averago in- crcaso on the whole lot of nineteen cents per ton. Tho coal consisted of 15,000 tons grato sizo 5,000 tons of ogg size, 25,000 tons of stove size arid 5,000 tons of chestnut sizo Before the tho coal was offered Sales Agent Ilolden informed tlioso present that tho 50,000 tons to be put up nt nilctiiin' cover ed tho entire amount tho coirp.iny would havo for delivery during tlio nibntli of Au gust, and requested all tlioso who thought they would need coal to purchase nt the sale. He nlso stated lliet purchasers of crato zo could have steamboat coal nt thesamo prico if they bo desired. Tlio grato sizo was then put up, and tho 15,000 lolls were sold at $2 30 per ton, aud tho 5,000 tons of 0; coal brought $2 45 per ton. Of the stove sizo 19,000 tons wero disposed ol .$2 75 per ton, and 0,000 tons nt $2 72 per ten, Tho chestnut sizo was then offered and 3,000 tons brought $2 5J per ton, the balance going for $2 57J. To following tabfo will show tho average Ivnnce in tho different elasfes of coal as compared witli last month's sale : Hie. Averant Average. Latl Month.

When they found they could not form a new combina tion through the opposition of tho lato ox- udge Packer, of (ho Lehigh Valley Com pany, they made an effort to reach un agree ment among themselves to limit the produc tion of coal by stopping mining operations henever the market might be overstocked. Several meetings were held for this puriiose ilhout any result j but it Is reported that an understanding has been reached among the leading representatives of tho principal coal oompanles by which they will issue monthly circulars advancing tho prico of each class ofcoal to figures satisfactory to all. A meeting of coalmen interested in the Philadelphia trade will bo held iu that city Thusday for tho purpose of advancing tho price of this oommodity.
