The thanks of the Association were tender el to Miss iiuuyan and Miss Guyer, for their 1 j)r Bliss, by appointment of the Associa tion read an interesting report on the subject . a Xeu- System, of School Headers. The ob -lot of the report was introduced by stating ,he twofold view of education but to provide for present wants and to anticipate future ' nioc The cravings of the young mind f r knowledge, it was said, must be met with varied supply, as mind cannot be coufined a limited number of objects without being . feebled, aud the lessons of nature are pre dated in g reat variet y- The P ra ctical mis take to be corrected in our present system of School Readers, is that they aim at nothing beyond learning the English language. As the common school affords an opportunity of a-uuiring mnch knowledge that may be needed in practical life, and as school readers have this advantage, that they are read by all, they ol ,(rbt to be made subservieut to the great pur pose of conveying this knowledge ; aud iustead of being seldom or almost never read for the purpose of communicating knowledge, they oaght to be used for directing the thoughts to the important practical subjects of every dav life. School Readers ought to be books on Natural Science, or Intellectual and Moral Science, Physiology and other scientific sub jects, which, without being systematic treati ses might yet present such views of the scien ces and of their fundamental principles, as would lead the young to appreciate their value and keep alive and profitably gratify the in quisitiveness of youth The thanks of the Association was tendered to I>r. Bliss for his report. The Committee appointed to report resolu tions, brought in a report which was accepted. After a recess, the Association met in the evening, and listened to an interesting and able lecture by the Rev. S. F. Colt. The lec turer chose for his subject, The. love of Rend iv, and introduced and commended the sub ject to the atteution of the audience by pre senting from the history of literature some stri king aud living cxemplications and witnesses nf this principle or passion—a clear and forci ble illustration of the true object of reading followed, and in dwelling on the varied advan tages of reading, he in a very lively and graphic manner exhibited the privilege it affords at all times of access to the companionship of the good and great and learned of past ages ; the opportunity was improved of administering salutary cautious on the subject of light read ing, and the lectare was concluded with a se ries of suitable counsels on the subject. The thanks of the Association were tender ed to Mr. Colt for his address. The Associatioa then resumed their discus sions, which were suspended during a brief in terval to afford the members of the Teachers' Institute, then convened in Troy, an opportu nity of testifying their esteem for Prof. Co- Turn and their regard for his valuable services, this was done by presenting him with an arn brotype representation of the members of the Institute in a group, which was regarded with much interest, not only from the artistic ex cellence, but from its appropriateness as a me mento of the interesting circumstances under which Prof. Coburn and the teachers were as sembled. The present was delivered by a Com mittee of the teachers, with a neat address bv Mr. Crandall, of the Troy Academy, and the gift acknowledged by Prof. Coburn in suitable and feeling terms. The Association met on Saturday morning, and was opened with prayer by the Rev. Mr. Mitchell. A report was read by Mr. William Davies, of the Towanda Public School, on Phonetic Teaching. The principles of the Phonetic sci ence was staled, the fact presented that the English, more than other modern languages departs from the phonetic principle—and that comparatively few ever become good readers or speakers. The advantages of the system ft 'ere fully stated aud illustrated, and various testimonies from the highest sources were quot ed, attesting the practicability aud the advan ces of the system. The report was accom mod with a series of resolutions. The re tort, which discovered much research on the 'object, and an interesting array of facts as roll as argnmeuts in support of the Phonetic 'jstem, was listened to with much attention, is one of the exercises, which peculiarly en laced the pleasure and the profitableness of his meeting. The report was accepted ; the hanks of the Association tendered to Mr. Da r|es, and the resolutions reported laid over for ibe future consideration and action of the As sociation. A copy of the report was requested for pnb ication in the Pennsylvania School Journal. The Association then took np for conside ation the following :—" Whereas, education £ intended to confer personal advantages to k possessor, and as appearances go far towards nnkmg up the sum of benefits to be derived f orn mental culture, therefore Jtaolced, That the inculcation of civility to old people, and the cultivation of good tanuersis a part of every school teacher's duty. Some remarks were made on the subject by " r Hardy, Rev. Mr. Foster, Rev. Mr. Mit- Mr. Craudall, Mr. Coburn aud Mr. Thomas. The langnnge of the resolution was excepted oa s implying an undue importance to ap wnrances, and teaching what would lead to ffpocrisy ; the apposite text of scripture was 1-oted—. Thou shalt rise up before the hoary and honor the face of the old man, and ° ar thy God it was admitted that teachers r °nld not dissent from the spirit of the reso jdion, that there was a growing prevalence of 'courtesy amongst the young, that in many u " s ""-Hools were annoying to travellers, and that teachers should see to this matter, for they were held responsible for the conduct of their The further consideration of the subject was postponed till next meeting. Mr. William Davies, Dr. E. 11. Mason and Sidney A. Pitcher and Misses Mary A. Bow en and Mary Lewis, were appointed a business Committee for next meeting. Mr. C. 11.

M'IXTOSII, DENTIST, jJLjTvf l •"" I 'iiy thanks the community for thege - ITT—l—> neroiiK treatment he has received for the past eight years, and promises to exert himself in future as he has never done before to deserve their confidence. Hereafter no work will leave his hands that will not compare favorably witli the lest style of city dentistry. In connection with thanks he begs to say, that the im mediate payment of plate work will he a necessity. A good tit is a most difficult object to be attained without having paid for the plate. It is true that a poor fit can be had whether paid for or not. but the responsibility is not in the least impaired with him. if the work is paid tor perhaps the opposite. It is mightily offensive to he sus pected of a deliberate attempt to gouge. He will under take to do nothing bevond Ins skill to accomplish. Per sons who do not wish to employ him until they find tin plate is •' going to do," are unformed that he does net de sire to lie so employed. He can point to as large a ntiui licr of good fits as any dentist can of equal business : and —if he does say it—to a great many more artistically ar ranged cases. If what he has done, cannot lie taken as a sufficient guarantee, the choice of another dentist w ill never be a subject of complaint by him. Towanda. September IS, 1R57. To All Concerned.
