Tho exercises opened with singing "Noyer Say Fail" and "Brightly," selections from the "Pennsylvania School Journal" supple ment. The tollowingcommittees were theu appointed : Committee on Resolutions, W. II. Raucn.or Weatherly, Hatlie L. Koons, or Lehlghton and J. F. White, of Muuch Chunk ; Committee on Resolutions of Con dolence on the death of Miss Fannie Hot lenslein, II. A. Eisenhart, of East Mauch Chunk, Cora M. L. Rhodes, of Lehlghton, and J. O. Lindaman, of Weatherly; Com- mluce on Elections, J. M, Roberts, J. II Dungan and G. A Campbell. W. W. Woodruff.Supenntendent of Bucks county, waB then Introduced and spoke on United States History. To main the sub ject of remembering dates gives trouble It has been my experience not to bi safe to examine teachers much on dates. Tlicy can give you facts, but cannot remem ber dates. In tjet, many of our historl s arc written with very little regard to (lutes. We should pay more attention to dates and fix them firmly in the mind. Review the lessons by writing dilferent dates on the blackboard and havo the pupils give tho evunts suggested by them. You will find this a very intcrcstlngand instructive exer cise. If wo visit our courts wo will find that not only ore we deficient in remember ing dates iu history, but also in all our bus iness transactions, and lawyers make good use of this in trying to break down the tes timony of witnesses. Cultivate the habit of remembering dates. Methods of Teaching ffistorv : 1st. Use the History as a reading bonk. This Is a very good way. Then have the pupils tell you about what they have been reading. Havo them put the facts In their own language. If you havo been teaching by haying the scholars commit the language in the book, turn over a new leaf at once. 1 never knew any one to know much aliout history that was taught in that way. Let a pupil read a lesson and then the teacher can supplement what tho book lacks. In this way tho teacher will put it in language better uuderstnod by the pupil. 2nd The Topical Method. This cannot bo taught to young scholars. It is too dilhYult. Too much time is spent in tho first part o tho history. Tass rapid ly over the discoveries or and explorations, settlements and-Indian wars. Give the children a knowledge of our own gevern ment.Too much stress is put Uhii battles and tho movements of armies. Better just mention them and dwell on the progress of our country. The events that took place be tween the years ol 1783 and 1789 should bo thoroughly learned and understood. Text books could bo dispensed with and large cards containing the principal events print ed in bold type. The blackboard can be substituted for the cards. The Institute then sang "Speak Gently." Miss Lottie Stone, then gave a class drill on Primary Arithmetic, which was very in teresting and beneficial to all Primary teachers. John F. White, Prioclpal o( the Mauch Chunk High School then read a paper on the subject ol "Differences." Tho speaker handled his subject very ably. His delivery was smooth and impressive. Miss Alma Soger, teacher of Elocution in tho West Chester State Normal School, then took up the subject of "Reading" and dis cussed it lu an iuterestfng and instructive manner After her remarks on reading, she read a spicy selection which was followed by enthusiastic applause The total mini ber enrolled during the afternoon cession was 111. Tl'KSDAT llonKlMQ SK38IOX. The morning session was opened by sing ing "Never Say Fail," when the Suprrin- tendant introduced Mr. Harvey, of Chester county Mr. Harvey extended (in behalf or the teachers or Chester) klcd greetings to the teachers or Carbon and made a few pleasant random remarks. Dr. Shaffer railed the attention ofthe In stitute to the fields aboye us and gave the Interesting "talk" on the Transit of Venus and how astronomers were enabled through it to compute the earth's distance from the sun, wbieh is now calculated to be between 92,200,000 and 92,700,000 miles. The "talk" on reading was resumed by Miss Sager, giving the essentials for becom ing good readers, as given in Apt!lon's series of readers. Prof. Woodruff occupied the remainder of the morning session on spelling. If spelling only, Is the object, the pupils ought to write the words every time i but tf artloalation, accentotion and vocaliza tion is to be taught In connection with spell ing, then let It be oral, at least sometimes.' AFTKRNOON SSSSIOS, The afternoon session was opened by Miss Sager, who finished her "talk" ou reading Prof. Woodruff addressed the Directors yary ably. He talked of the respensiblo trust placed in their bane's and makes out that there are four kinds of school directors) of the soUrivs they sr paying to their teach ers as too meagre, and of the; necessity of consulting the Superintendent when they are building houses. After a short recess and Iho singing oP'Biulah Land." the sub ject "Memory," was ably handled by pr, Bchaffer. Physiology boi developed and snown that the brain Is made up or a niira bar or working units and that each acST memory will destroy some o( them, for this resson, the mind ought not to be burdened with anything that Is of no earthly value, nor should anything be memorized for tho mere sake of memorizing. Miss Sager then favored the Institute with two selections, entitled respectively, "Sam Waller's Valentine " and "Little Golden Hair." Number of teachers enrolled, 127. Institute adjourned, vnUDiT noamiiQ stasias:. Dr. Bchsfler resumed his "talk"on'Mm . T"-uow it can b. developed, which is 1 0B,y ,,, M T I ,.. I , , ... . . . becomes monotonous unless the teacher stimulates the Interest of tho child, which he can only do by being Interested himself. First the child ought to have a clear concep tion of what It is to remember, second, Its interest ought to be stimulated to its fullest extent and then the fact ought to bo repest ed a number or times. Studies Involving the action of memory ought to be attended to early In life. .Wo believe that the mind actually forge'j some things notwithstand ing the well-established theory that nothing Is absolutely forgotten. After recess, W. I. Marshall delivered Ms lecture on "Penmanship." The essentials of good writing are legibility and that it Is ropidly and easily executed. A laslo lor drawing Is essential for the higher develop ment ofthe art. Colonel Sanford closed tho morning ses sion with some very spicy and interesting remarks. ArmxuOX BKSSIOK, Dr. Bchaffer opened tho afternoon session with a speech on stocks and decimal trac tions. He told the Institute haw the terms bulls and bears came to be applied to these speculators and how applicable the names were. After singing the hymn entitled "Vesper Hymn," Prof. Snyder, ofthe Le hlghton schools gave the Institute his meth ods tor teach ing oral grammar. Prof.Rauch, r the Weatherly schools, then read an es say entitled, "The Newspaper in our Schools," which was lollowed by a discus sion, opened by J. M. Roberts, of Summit Hill.

Philadelphia Ledqer, 18th Inst.: The anthracite cos I trade presents no change iu its salient features. There Is the umsl good demand at this port for all sizes excepting broken and pea, though egg coal In some localities is regarded as rather dull of sale. Most of the collieries havo their product l furnace and stoye coal sold ahead, and the octput for this mouth will be somewhat short on account of the three quarters' time at the mines and the almost total suspen sion or labor there that Is anticipated dur Ing the holiday week. The demand for tin eastward is good one. in excess of the facili ties for shipmeut, as freights are hich and vessels continue scarce. The various shij ping ports, on scoountof theso difficulties ol export, are slowly accumulating coal, es pecially tlie sizes that are in least request. It is reported that on Saturday there were about 86,1100 tons at Perth Amboy, 50.000 tons at Elizabtihport, and 130,000 tons at Port Itichinond.
