M. Prof. Northrop then delivered a lecture, subject—" First steps in Reading." lie said there were three methods of teaching Read ing—the phonic, and phonotypic, and the word method. lie preferred the phonic, it being the most natural. Miss Parsons gave an exercise in Map Drawing. She would begin with the school building, and add the surrounding roads, buildings, &c., and thus draw them on step by stop. She gave the universal characters adopted in all countries by map publish ers. Prof. J. V. Montgomery, of Millersville, ;elivered a lecture on drawing. Ile spoke of the necessity and value of drawing, saying that every one needs a knowledge of drawing. It in valuable, not only in expandingthe mind by cultivating our observation and comparison, and ena ing us to see all that is beautiful inform and design, but it is practically valuable to all. There are three methods of teaching draw ing: The imitative, the inventive and the perspective. Ile preferred the combina tion method, or the combination of the three methods.

Music—"bet the (toed Angels Come In." 11. D. Danner read an essay—subjoet, "Charles Dickens." Mr. D. stated that he WM not going to pronounce a eulogy upon Charles Dickens, but call attention to his works. Page, Wickersham, hart, and others, have clone much for teaching by their works, but Charles Dickens has done more than all. Ile then took Up 501110 of his works, and traced the characters repre sented therein. In conelusien he said that though "Charles Dickens" is dead, he still speaks through his works. Music—" Merrily Every Bosom." Rev. Dr. E. H. Nevin then road a paper 'on "The Dignity of the Teacher." To be a teacher, in the highest and best sense of the word, is to stand in the highest and best place that Clod has ordained for man. To form a human soul to virtue and enrich it with knowledge is an wilco inferior only to the Creative Power. Thu order was good during the evening, except near the back part of the hall on the female side. Those grown up female children may take notice that they are known and to avoid publicity, their mis conduct had better not be repeated. That female (we can not call her lady,) who, be cause she bears some ill-feeling against Dr. Nevin, was unceasingly talking in a tone loud enough to be heard all over the room, might know that she could not thereby in jure him, but that the injury would all re coil upon herself. After Dr. Nevin concluded the reading of his paper, Prof. Northrop arose and gave those " few giddy girls," who "on account of their empty-headedness," had been talk ing loud, such a scathing rebuke that they will not soon forget it. Superintendent Evans and a lady teacher also reproved them. • Mrs. Randall then read an extract from the "Play of the Honeymoon," " Our Folks," " Mollie Carew," and " The Bugle Song." Singing—" Our Mission," concluded the exercises. . . - - - Thursday Marning.—Opened with sing ing, and prayer by Michael Benedict. I. S. Geist then lectured on Arithmetic ; subject, "Iquare Root." Music—" Opening Hymn." The question " How shall History be taught" was then presented to the Institute by Superintendent Evans, 'whereupon R. S. Gates, stated that there is often opposi tion by parents to the study of History by their children. This should be overcome. A good plan to get pupils started in History is to get them to play History. He teaches it by the principle of association. Ile demonstrated his method on the black board, making hasty drawing to represent facts. B. F. 11111--It is hard to got up a regular class in history in many of our rural dis tricts, but in connection with 1./eography, we can impress many important facts in History. The proper way to teach it is to excite an interest. Prof. S. S. Haldeman spoke in his usual instructive way of the importaneo of teah ing History in connection with i:eography. Music—" Holden Rule." Prof.,Byerly lectured on (iraininar, Sub jeet—"Relative Pronoun." Music—" Before Recess." Miss Parsons gave an exercise in Musi cal Calisthenics. Prof. Northrop lectured on Nliintal Phil osophy, speaking principally of the ad vantages to be derived. unie—" Fair I lope is Standing Ever." Miss Randall gave ter Elocutionary Ex ercise from "The.

Win. I'. Brintom Esq., l'resident of the Board of Directors of Lancaster city, being called upon by Superintendent Evans, said that Directors should do their duty, if they do nut wish to do so they had better resign at once, and if they do not resign their fel low-citizens should refuse to 1 . 0-elect tll , lll at the expiration of their term. lint what. is a Director's duty? lle believed it to be th - eir duty to select good and competent teachers, visit the sch oo ls, erect comfort:a ble school houses, with ample playgrounds attached and furnish the schools with suit able apparatus.

Directors are re ilitir“l to build good school houses, pro vide apparatus and adopt a uniformity of text books, lie said there is but One house in the county that fully Vittlles Up to his idea what a school house should be—and that is in Manor township. Ile recom mended Directors to give the entire Burets teachers to attend the Institute as there was always a connection between the first and last days. A good plan was to give them a day in each !south to visit schools. A number of the districts do this. It is im possible for the Superintendent to visit the 2:i or 33u schmils in the county every year, Directors should therefore appoint a Dis trict Superintendent. All that were in favor of a law making it obligatory to appoint District Superintendents were requested to rise, when probably a majority of the In stitute arose. Directors should put more estimate upon eertilicatck. In some Dis tricts a teacher whose certificate averages 2.1 receives as much pay as one whose cer tificate averages 11 or 2.

Locher, situated in the alley in rear or the i•kihuva• Lion uni3O or the ExpreAN, raid used its In factory by the Lancaster Cork Company, was discovered to be on tire. An alarm was at Once given and the firemen wore promptly on the ground, lull the contents of the building were or such a combustible nature that all efforts to cave the property wore unavailing. 'rho Ilamos spread with wonderful rapidity, and in a short time the interior oldie building was a mass of flames Sit intense was the lextt that eleven o'clock the west wall of thin littildieg, was forced out :mil fell with a crilsh. The raft ers and upper bti then gave way :111.1 into the portion of the ...call wail, which tell into the alley burying lionettilt it and serititHiv injuring derettilith Reito,•l, Win.

They were speedily extricated front the ruins, and Price arid Rohrer taken to Dr. Carpenter's MILT, and Leonard and Heitzol taken to Dr. letzger's snit, Nvltera they were properly cared for alai thence taken to their respective liOnins. All the firemen worked nobly and suc ceeded in preventing the flames from spreading to ally of the ad joining vroperties and by 1 o'clock A. M., the Mulles had been so far subdued that all the companies left the ground except the Union, which kept two plug streams tin the burning debris all night and all day Sunday Until live o'clock, When thin water was turned off. In ail hour or two, however, the flames again broke out, causing a general alarm which speedily brought all the com panies to the ground, and in a Short time the tire was again got under control, requir ing nothing more than two plugs streams to keep it from spreading. A committee from the:Union remained on the ground all night, and up to 7 o'clock on Monday. The fire originated in the southwest cor ner of the basement, at Ov hallpoint no tiro is kept in the factory—the boiler being at the opposite end of the building. It was evidently the Work or all illeentlißry, who probably threw a match or lire-ball into the basement through the grated window in the south wall. Our reporter called this morning upon :sfr. Cadwell, one of the proprietors, for the purpobe of ascertaining the amount of loss and insurance; but that gentleman rather ill-naturedly declined to furnish the infor mation, on the ground that we had sonic weeks ago declined to publish an 00 favora ble notice of Miss Olive Logan's lecture on ''Girls,” We learn from other sources, however, that there is 311 insurance on the stock and machinery of $15,0"0-0110 half on each—in the following companies:— ;‘.. , '.'5,00U in the Ilarttbrd, of Connecticut; $5,000 in fits rilinniX, of 1. 4 2,00 in the National, of Boston ; and $2,500 in the Cumberland Valley.

The only other damage done by the tire was to the brick stable of John I'. Myer, the gable ends of which were both knocked out by the fall ing walls of the factory, ;mil the whole structure so shattered that it may lie nec essary to take it down. Tun much praise CalltlOt be awarded to our lire department for the harinimiomi, efficient and successful manner in which they worked to check the spread of the 11,11110 M. The Union Strainer W:lSltteell in South Queen street immediately opposite the entrance of the alley in which the fitc tory was situated. it tsar suppled with water trout the plug in front of l ft. Metz ger's office, and throw two constant streams of water on the tire from first to last. The engine worked to a charm, and was run at ;111 average steam pressure of To When and too pounds water pressure. When the walls fell one of the Company's braneli pipes was crushed heneatli the ruins, though luckily none of the Well were injured. ' rho Union clahos to have hail two streams of water on the tire before any of their competitors. The Sun steamer used the plug at the corner of South Queen and Vine, running to ; flues Of hose up South Queen and into the alley. .1n average of !HI pounds and water pressure teas used, teas rim up at timos as Lint, is 115 11,1111t1S.

Four of the company were seri ously and several others slightly by the falling walls. The engine was work. ed at all average Of CO pounds steam and 115 pounds water pressure. The Friendship took the plug at the North-eastern corner Centre :Square and East King street, using one line of hose, running diagonally across the square, and through Mrs. Notices yard to the north end of the factory. The steamer was run at a steam pressure of front tin to 90 pounds, and a water pressure as high as 135 pounds, throwing a tremendous stream, which did much towards saving the boiler house of the factory, and the adjoining frame back buildings. The boys claim to have been second only to the I_7 n ion in gutting water on the tiro. The Washington steamer used the plug in front of the Mayor's Office, running two lines of hose in the alley of the Cross-Heys Hotel, and thence across Mr. Myer's yard, in rear of the factory. The steamer worked admirably, and the company escaped with out any accident to either person or prop erty, except the bur s ting of a neetion or two of hose. The Humane Steamer used the plug in Prince street between West King and Vine, running one line of hose up the alley to the lire. The engine worked very effec tively at an average pressure of Ile pounds. Six sections of their hose burst, and was speedily replaced by hose loaned them by the union and Washington. The Shiftler and the Empire companies were promptly on the ground with their hose, hooks, ladders, c., doing good service lending a hand and furnishing their hose to any of the steamers requiring it. The Em pire had one ladder broken at the time the wall fell and one or two members slightly hurt. During the alarm last evening the com panies took the same plugs they had used on Sunday night, with the exception of the Humane, which took the plug in West King street, between Centre Square and Prince. The Union, Sun and Humane used butplug streams. After playing on theruins for a short time Mayor Atlee ordered all water to be turned off, except a single plug stream, on account of the low state of the Reservoirs which were represented as being almost empty. The following is the condition In which the injured persons were reported to be in on Monday: Reuben Rohrer, of the American, 22 years of age, single, resides with his mother, to North Duke street—severe con cussion of the brain—slightly burned and scalded—in a critical condition, but will probably recover.

CHARGED WITH POISONING.—A girl named Matilda Trimble; about 10 years of age, was arrested this morning by Consta ble Sweigart, of Drumore township, on complaint of Henry Eckman, a farmer, by whom the girl has beets for some time hired, en charge of poisoning his wife.— The accused was taken before Alderman Amweg, whore from the evidence it ap peared that the girl had procured strychnine and put into Mrs. Eckinan's drink. After drinking she was immediately seized with spasms. A hired man who partook of the potion was also seized with spasms,and had it not been for the prompt attendance of Dr. B. F. Sides, both would probably have died, as it is, Mrs. Eckman lies now in o preca rious condition. A cat, to whom a portion of the poison was administered for trial, died almost immediately. It is said that the girl confessed to Dr. sides that she had adminisitered the poison, but only for the purpose of making Mrs. Eckman sick.— Before the Alderman she refused to answer any questions. In default of $5,000 bail she was committed to answer at the next Court of quarter Sessions. Mossyttu.
