The Cut ia Coal r.ates. A New York despatch of the 2nd Inst., says; The report of the cut In coal prices proves to be true.

The prices refer to fresh-mined Phtaton coal for delivery at the F.rle coal docks, Wee hawken subject to the usual conditions ot tale and shipment, twenlj-five cents additional for delivery nt New York. The Delaware and Hudson Canal Com pany have met these prices. So far as tho statement that the Drexel-Morgan syndicate had failed In their scheme for the reorganization of the Koadlng Com pany Is concerned, It seems that there his been but little likelihood of Its xlstlng at any lime, there appearing to be too much jealousy existing between the live men who practically control the anthiaclle coal business of this country, namely Messrs.

Feb. 27th, was held the last of a scries of local Institutes in the county. The meeting was organized by electing the following olllcers: Co.Supt. T. A. Snyder. President; Messrs J. L. Pottclger, of Weathcily, and City Supt. Ilolman. of Ilazleton, Vice Presidents, ami Messrs. J. Hcvan. T. Cratz, J. F. Snyder and J. M. Stauffcr, Secretaries, to report to the dillercnt county papers The exercises of the Institute were opened by MIssHcna West, of Weather ly, with a class drill In Physiology; the leeitation was Interesting and explained what has been accomplished in our new branch In many of our schools. Af'er singing "Mill May," J. K. rilwood ills cussed "Uvolullon," introducing his subject Psychologically; denying that tho mind Is a blank, originally; after which ho explained how to extract the cube root, by means of cube root blocks During the discussion Prof. Phillips as!;c.d how many of the teachers had any occasion to uso cube root In busi ness or practical life. Miss Emma J. Andrews, of Weather ly. then Introduced acl.i3s drill In prlm- ary arithmetic, in which by means ot blocks, in a very practical wav she deme.-utiated how to teach numbers, and the fundamental rules of arithmetic. After singing "The Illacl: CoC the institute was favored by Prof. Phillips with a talk on "Our Currency;" the Prof, explained the organization of na tional banks; tho advantages of our present banking system; the clearing house nnd (he national bank note, il-c; the Prof.'s talk was replete with general information and thus very intcrostln to his audience. "ijieat.tempcranco, open air, much labor and little care," was the theme of City Supt. Ilolman, of Ilazleton. The Sunt., among many other practical re marks, urged teachers to lie temperate; to be most systematic and prudent In utilizing their Saturdays nnd vacations, The institute then adjourned to meet at quarter past 1 o'clock sharp. The afternoon exercises were opened by singing, "Hoe out your row;" when Prof. Phillips followed with a talk on "Our Courts;" In this talk the Prof, ox plained the relations of the various courts, The salaries of the judges;thelr term of olln-e; he also explained the duties of the dillercnt juries; lhc manner of Idling tho jury box and the drawing of the jury men. Dr. Phillips' talks during the day were Indeed all very practical. Prof. J. P. Stctler then fol lowed with a class in Phonics; this ex ercise, though very Intel estlng, wns pro bably loo much huri led to mako It as practical as might have been desired. The last exercise for the day was the discussion of tho question of supple mentary reading, which was opened by Mr. J. L. Pottclger who set fortli the necessity of supplementary reading, In order to Interest our pupils.and to make reading more Instructive as a source .of general information. Mr. Hcvan asked for Information as to what to select, and how to select, where teachers had no special scrloiof readers. J. K. Kd.vard, replied that he did not encourage tlie selection of such leadlngfrom papers by the teacher, as he thought llieie could not be found In the county aboard of directors so penurious as to refuse to buy the required books, which would cost but a mere trifle. It Is useless for the writer, to state that the Institute was a success as this Is evident to all that were present; the attendance was large, for a Local Insti tute, there being present abaut fifty teachers from the rujinty, besides thfcse, a large number of teachers from Lehigh nud Luzerne counties, were In attend ance and took pan in exercises. On Friday evening previous, Prof. Philips deliver his popular lecture, en titled "The Slory of The Heavens, "ar.d taking Into consideration the unfavor able evening, we may say that It was well patronized, the music for the even ing was furnished by the Miss Gerger mid A'auclyke, assisted by Messrs.
