Dr. Howe Elected Bishop of Central
Pennsylvania.
The Primary Convention of the Diocese
of Pennsylvania, Protestant Episcopal
Church, re-assembled in St. Stephen's
Churc,h, Harrisburg, at 9 o'clock, Thurs

The Bishop gave his consent in writing
to the formation of the new diocese of Cen
tral Pennsylvania; and likewise in writ
ing, elected to remain the diocesan of the
diocese of Pennsylvania, comprising Phil
adelphia, Montgomery, Chester, Delaware
and Bucks.
The Bishop further said that this duty
finished, he could not part with his dear
brethren of the old diocese of Pennsylva
nia, who had so long been under his charge
without the deepest emotions.
Rev. Mr. Marple hero moved that the
whole Convention rise.
The Bishop said promptly that he hoped
they would not rise. Ile :proceeded, by
saying that in a few weeks it would be ten
years since God placed him over these dear
people, in Christ) Since then he had been
glad to hod two Dioceses carved out of the
old. And now he gave them up into the
charge of some one, he then knew not
whom, he trusted to lead them to the green
pastures and still waters of God's holy
truth. Looking upon their faces and re
calling his recollections of the past, fettling
that he should never again be permitted to
traverse the mountains and valleys, and
highways mid byways of Iris old Diocese,
he proposed to Itjave them 110 W with the

The Ruth Murder.
The reader will remember the details of
the murder of Mr. Isaac Miles' Rath, at
Lawrence, Kansas, last Summer. Mr.
Ruth was formerly a resident of Willis
town, Chester county, where his father still
resides. It will be recollected, that he mar
ried a Mrs. Voullaire, who had been di
vorced from her husband. , At the time
of Mr. Ruth's . death Ski was absent
on a visit to some distant friends. On
the evening previous to his death a Dr.
Medlicott visited Ruth's house and spent
the evening there, and administered
some medicine for neuralgia. After the
Doctor left, Mr. Ruth became deadly sick.
and wrote a note to his wife, detailing his
symptoms, and intimating that the medi•
rine prescribed by the Doctor might be
poison. The next morning he was found
dead in his room. The letter was found,
and suspicion at once pointed to Medli
colt as the author of Ruth's death.—
He was arrested and placed in prison: In
the meantime it was ascertained that he was
on intimate terms with Mrs. Ruth, and
suspicion attached to her as an accomplice.
Medllcott's wife had also died very sud
denly, and under suspicious circumstances.
All these facts created great excitement,
and Mr. Ruth's body was disinterred and
traces of poison found in the stomach. In
the cell with Medlicott another prisoner
named Johnson was confined. Of this man
the Doctor made a confidant, and entrusted
several letters to him to deliver to Mrs.
Ruth and other parties on his release from
prison. These fell into the hands of the
District-Attorney, and led to the develop
ment of such a chain of testimony as to
convict the Doctor of the murder of Ruth—
of murder in the first degree. Two of Mr.
Ruth's brothers attended at the trial, and
were not among the least interested specta
tors, as may well be imagined.
It was believed that improper relations
existed between Medlicott and Mrs. Roth,

All I , lher questions that have hitherto
divided the American people disappear be
fore this one: Call public corruption be
stopped? Can public robbery hti put
lit,Wll? C3ll political frallthi l•e suppressed
told prevented? Can bribery and present
taking be banished front political affairs?
Ten years ago the great cluestion was
slavery. It was settled through the war of
the rebellion, with its immense losses of
life and treasure and its gigantic heritage
of public debt. Since then other questions
growing out of the war have arisen• For
tunately, they are now all ended and elear
ed away ; and there is no other subject to
distract the attention of the people from
this one supremo issue. Can robbers,
thieves, bribe-givers, bribe takers, pres
euLt.akers, and official blackmailers be
driven from power and honest:men put ill
their places? Can the fatal system of cor•
ruption now so universal be brought to a
close, and a SyStelll of honesty, frugality,
and purity be substituted in its place?
if our public affairs continue for live
years longer upon the same downward
course as they have done for the live years
since the close of the rebellion, we shall no
longer have a country to be proud of; and
the great American experiment of self gov
eminent, in which the hopes of all human

The facts in the case thivernor Pal
mer's prosecution of t tencral Sheridan for
tho unlifirful killing of Mr. Grosvenor
begin to put a blacker faro on the affair for
Piegan Phil. It now appears that the only
plea which had any plausibilitydo wit,that
Chicago would have been left, a prey to
robbers if Sheridan had not proclaimed
martial law, is entirely untenable.—
The day after the lire the Adjutant
iieneral of Illinois reached Chicago with
a State three of Val picked men,under orders
from l toyernor Palmer to assist the civil
authorities in the preservation of order,
and that by command of General Sheridan
he was obliged to desist from the attempt
to execute his insl ructions and withdraw
his men. After this Sheridan issued his re
cruiting edict, under cover of which the reg
inient,.fiiom which caino the fatal shut, was
raised. In the light, of these revelations it is
evident that Sheridan's overweening vanity
and insolent contempt for civil authority are
responsible for the blood that has been spilt.
We most sincerely- trust that he may lie
held to a rigid account. The country needs
something of the spirit of old Manse Head
rigg, in Scott's novel, who took up her
testimony without fear before her guard of
British dragoons, insisting that she would
not hide her convictions "at the bidding
of :my man of sin, though he paint him
self red as a potsherd and call himself c, r
poral." A licintenant-general is a good
subject for the issue of -personal freedom
and civil law against military aggression,
anti the sooner General Sheridan is indict
ed and had in the courts the better. In the
Now York elections the people have waked
up to rebuke robbery, and badly as that
election may have hurt Democracy be
cause the innocent many have suffered for
the guilty tare, we are glad of the purifying
denunciation. To it we want, in a like tin
, partisan spirit, to see added a crushing
overthrow of that infinitely greater wrong

The Teachers' Institute
The Lancaster County Teachers' Institute
commenced its annual meeting on Monday
at 10 o'clock, a. so., in the Court-House. At
that hour the attendance was comparatively
small, the Court-room being not more than
one-third full, though quite a number came
in afterwards.
County Superintendent Evans called the
meeting to order and Mr. L. C. Oberlin
opened the proceedings byreading the 100th
psalm, followed by brayer.
Superintendent E6ans said that the In
stitute would at once proceed to business.
He would not state the programme of pro-.
ceedings, as all the members had no doubt
seen it. He expected the present meeting
to be the largest ever held in the county, as
most of the Boards of Directors had given
their teachers the entire week for 'the pur
pose of attending. He briefly referred to
the increase in the number of pupils and
teachers, school and school funds, during
the past year. He spoke of the importance
of object lessons, music, elocution, de., in
the schools, and more particularly of the
necessity of having good teachers. He ex
pected much good to result from the pre,
ent meeting, and wished to impress on the
teachers the overwhelming interests en
trusted to their ,are; spoke of the wide
spread inquiry for good teachers, instanc
ing the State of Texas, which had recently
advertised for teachers, offering $lllO per
month for class teachers, and. stio and $l l O

ed at 2. o'clock, P. .M., with music, Prof.
riseld's choir singing the "Greeting
Glee," "Jesus' Little Lamb" and "
Crown Them wit II Roses."
Prof. S. S. Haldeman delivered a desul
tory lecture upon the many errors current
in natural history, science, literature, Ne.
Ile read from the /14.,1i5h Quarter/3j Reticle
an article alma .1. Anthony Freud, lately
eleetssi Rector of St. Andrews, Scotland;
the reviewer charging that the historian
knew nothing about Calvinism, a subject
which lie hist loathe his special study! lie
quoted also from the (S'r/tool Journala para
graph which states that there is iron enough
in one human body to make a pen knife
blade, and enough magnetism to form the
silver of a dozoo sockets. The Professor
said the xcheof ./..umit Was a geed work,
but he was linable to imagine what One
writer or that paragraph meant.
Mr. Methiskey said he was responsible
Mr the paragraph ; he had copied it from
all exchange without scrutinizing it as
closely as he should.
Prof. Haldeman said that - Mr. McCaskey
was an honest man and acknowledged his
errors, which raised a laugh. Ile said that
the next page ()I' the lours,/ contained a
stiatellient In I lie effect that ill the ver
silt; of liehltilierg there were Professors
who (.011111 teach all the known latiguag,es.
IVlien we consider that there are abolit
2,llll(ldilferrut languages spoken, including
not only the (lid:, Latin, (Matilde, Ara
bic, Sioux, Ceinanclie, Hottentot, and so
forth, tile statement seems. to be a very
broad and unfounded ono. Some time ago
he had seen a letter from - a Rome corros
pendent of the Philadelphia /:///fetici, ill
which it was stated, that on a certain day
the lietothe•c) of Ibinui Was iu a fin Mont and
on the verge 11l revolution. The Professor
happened to be in Rome lit the tinie--saw
the crowds upon the street--but the nearest
appreaull he had seen to ferment and rev.-
Ilition, Was their pe.aeibill n un cuing ml
pumpkin seeds -an article of Mod which,
upon trial, he found lo lie iiiiite palatable!
Ile (icily 01011tioned those matters ler the
purpose of showing how frequently absurd
and incorrect statements creep into the
most reliable of publivations. The Pro
fessor noticed 1111(1., refuted a numhrr
of storieS colitailleil ill works on nat
ural history, aiming others the
stateltient that monkeys cross strtiallis over
bridges fornied by hanging le each other's
tails! Ile deseribed the monkey family
at some length, giving insta n ces of their
wonderful power of imitation; but seemed
to doubt the Darwinian theory that man
descended from them. I legneted Huxley
as saying that the intellesitial difference be
tween the lowest order of men a n al the high
est order of monkeys, is not se marked,
I Wide as the gulf . isl a the dillereneo be
tween the highest and lowest order of
monkeys. 1 Jere. (.idled thelietitiousstories
told about the mermaids and stated that
they were not intich more fictitious than
many other statements seriously recorded
by historians—such as the story of Curtin s
leap into the earthquake gulf that would
not close until something valuable Was
thrilWil into it; the story that the success
of Louis Napoleon's Coup d'etat was the
result ()Pan aeii(lent on the part ofThedigar
flier ; the Story or the punishment of the
author of a pamphlet denouncing the ru
mored marriage or Queen Elizabeth, (00.
These and many other historical statements
the Professor showed to be pure fictions.
Ills remarks were listened to with great at
tention and were loudly applauded.
liss Flora T. Parsons, of Now York,was
the next speaker. She said the time was
1011011 it Was thought that anybody could
teach Primary:schools; now many think
theyshould have the very best teachers,and
should be better paid than assistants in
higher schools. She spoke of the import
alive of lessons, and introduced
"Pretelozzia's Principles." She explained
that ac(tivity is the law of childhood, the
teacher should accustom the child to ;
should ecluvate the hand; oultivate the
faculties in their natural order ; should
first form the mind and then furnish it;
begin with the senses and never tell actin,'
what it can be lad to discover Mr itself. Re
duet( every subject to its elements—one dif
ficulty at. a time is enough for the mind of
a child ; preceed step by step—be thorough
—the measure of information is net what
the teacher call impart, lint what the child
can receive; let every lessen have a point,
either inugrolinto or remote; develop the
idea, give the term, eultivate language;
proceed from the known n) the unknown
from the particular to the general—from
the concrete to the abstract--front 1110 ',Mi
llie to the more difficult; first teach syn
thesis, then analogies—not the order of the
subject, but the order of nature.
Literature in POllllllO,l SellOOlS, by Prof.
\Vestlake, was the next question discussed.
The greatest defect in our school system is
want of concentration, and the power to
make use of the knowledge pupils have
aei f ili red. They are not eillleated Synillie.

have a literary vulture and power of ex

parents can readily be recognized ill the
schools. The lecturer agreed with Miss
Parsons as to the necessity of having the
best tectehers in the Primaries, and in
stanced Pope, Scott, Bryant and others, to
show the value and advantage of having
educated 'smelts. The best teacher is he
whose mind is best cultivated on general
subjects—who does not ()ramp his mind by
running it in a single groove. lie believed
that recitations and declamations should be
encouraged ; btu cautioned teachers against
allowing pupils to make their own selee-
Dons out of the trashy literature of the day
—stun' that ought never to have been writ
ten, and if written, never read. Ile would
not have long recitations, but have them
. well selected. The greatest pleasure of
Milton was in his old age, when blind, to
declaim'ehoice extracts front limner, Vir
gil, and other authors. Such recitations in
childhood store the mind with treasures,
and teach and impress On the memory
choice phraseology, and style of expres•
atoll.
Professor J. W. Shoemaker, of Philadel
phia, next lectured on Elocution. Ile said
he sincerely sympathized with those
speakers who had felt 11115 way embarrass
ed during the afternoon, and assured them
he felt more scared than any of them. El
ocution he treated as an art easily acquired
comparatively; all that is necessary to do
is to follow nature—any one can carry
d message to his fellow-townsman after he
knows what the message is. Declamation
is nothing more than this. Author's have
written their messages and expect us to de
liver them, when we have read them and
know what they are. Most persons are
natural enough when at home—it is only
when placed in unusual situations that
they become awkward. He blamed teach
ers for spoiling many children by requir
ing them to read in tones and positions that
are unnatural and improper. There are
three sources of utterance—first circumstan
tial, an affected form of utterance in which
there is no heart or soul. Second, the emo
tional, when words of sorrow or joy break
forth uncontrolled, likes mountain stream,
. and third the combined source of utterance,
which Is the great field of social conversa
tion. The lecture contained many useful
' hints, but we have not room for even a
synopsis of it.
Mr. Ulrich Strick.ler, from the Commit
tee on Publhnlotr, reported that the Com
mittee had called upon the several Publish
ers of the city and received from them the
rates at which they were willing to print
the proceedings of the Convention in the
same form as heretofore printed. The bids
were as follows: J. D. Pyott, MO; Exam
iner and Herald, $300; INTELLIGFISetiIit,
$220; Inquirer, V.. 05. Mr. Strickler stated
that he had- had a -conversation with. the
publishers of the 4py and Herald, cit , Co-
Jumble, during which the former said he
would do the work for a 22.5, and the latter
for $2OO. As these latter offers, however,
had not been made to the Committee, they
were not considered formal bids.
The question Was taken ou the motion to
give the work to the lowest bidder and, on
a division being called, was decided in the
negative. . .
The question was then taken on giving
the work to Mr. Pyolt nod was decided in
the affirmative.
Monday Erenivg.—" Over the River,"
and other selections of music, were sung
by the choir.
Miss Hannah Kennedy read an able
Essay on "Small Scholars." She severely
criticized the too common error of cram
ming and endeavoring to put old heads on
young shoulders. Another error of teach
ers is the neglect of small scholars, for the
purpose of paying more attention to those
farther advanced. The way to make the
school-room attractive, is to show the little
ones that the law of love is the rule of the
school. The essay was very well written
and delivered m a pleasant and distinct
voice.
Mr. T. L. Witinyer read an Essay on
"True Training." He said that with all
our boasts of improvement in the art of
teaching, theroisagreat lack of thorough
ness in the system. We have Inure crooked
boys than crooked trees; more om pty heads
than empty purses—more good furniture
than good manners, d:c. Other professions
are far ahead of the teachers and preachers.
The incompetent leacher retards rather
than advances the interests of pupils.—
"Train up a child in the way he should go"
is the oldest and best advice ever given to
a teacher. 'rake the child to the fields, the
woods, the streams, the mountains and
teach hint nature. The address was well
delivered and merely, d considerable ap
plause.
Prof. A. It. Byerlv read a paper on
Cramming vs. Culture." It was I"till of
good points, but too long—the reading of it
occupying about an hour. No mere sy
nopsis, in the suave to which we are me
strieted, would do justice to it.

Superintendent Evans :Li:not:loved the
subject for discussion: " What assistance
should be given to pupils?'
B. F. Hills opened the discussion. lle
contended that assistance should be given,
that children are sent to school U: be led.
He gives el/Milder:lWe inisbininee to begin
ners. It is the duty of teachers to give in
structions how to read, spell, Re. He
speaks front experimce, l'effiing the want
of early instruction.
U. S. Clark said, wo know it to be a fart
that any knowledge we lusinire ourselves,
is longer and inure easily retained than
that we learn from others. Teachers assist
too u uu •h, instead of luau little. When a
pupil eau not overcome a point, show him
wherein the difficulty lies, and let him
work it out himself. The greatest scholars
that the world has ever seen, received no
assistance, but were self-made men.
I. S. Geist said, that in order to study
successfully you must have assistance.—
Those great men, spoken of, would no
doubt have been much greater, if they lad
received some assistance. Teachers should
give instruction in the manner of studying.
J. H. Stiffer said, there are different
ways of giving assistance. One is instruct
ing how to study. In penmanship, show
them how to form letters. Follow the same
principle in all branches. Ile also thought
that teachers assist too much.
It. F. EDI! teacues them to help them
selves; has them to try; does not believe
in cramming, but in having pupils to work.
S. L. Frey said that too mind' assistance
is given. It is expected by Directors and
patrons, and in consequence there is tno
much superficial knowledge and too little
sel b reliance.
U. Strickler said that too much, rather
than too little, assistance is given. A
teacher should not assist pupils, unless
satisfied that the subject is beyond their
comnprelr♦ensioh, and then he should lead
them on step by step, from the known to
the unknown. Ile should not tell them,
but draw it out by questions, thusassisting
them to acquire the• fact themselves.

early hour on Thursday, the (Mid body
Benjamin Diiionderfer, n ihigman on the
first Cumberland valley freight train west,
was found lying beside the track of the
Pennsylvania Railroad, about lOU yards
west of the Big Conestoga bridge. The
body was terribly mutilated, both legs be
ing cut nearly oil; the left arm fractured,
the jaw crushed, the face considerably
lacerated, and the neck broken. Of course
death resulted instantaneously. It is prob
able that the on fortunate man fell head
foremost from the car, broke his neck and
was then run over. The remains wore taken
to the Pennsylvania Railroad Depot, where
an inquest was held upon them by Coroner
Dysart, his jury returning a verdict of ac
cidental death. The body was then enin
\Jived to the undertaking establishment of
Mr. I lenry Bwentzel, in Market street, and
placed in a neat coffin; after which it was
sent, on the 11:15 train, to Harrisburg,where
deceased resided. Mr. Diffenderfor was a
