the land must be in such high
condition .ai to always grow goal
crops, which' will account for tenants
able to pay the high rents, nnd
numerous and heavy taxes without
thinking it worth while ;-to labor` on
the farm themselves. In.the United
Mates it is considered necessary for
man who owns the farm to work as'
3iard, or rather harder than his men,
- whilein :England the tenant of any
respectable farm would be deemed a
mean and covetohs . fellow to thus
take the place of h laborer and de
prive a poor man of work, and the
farm laborers despise a man of such
a weak mind as to be unable to su

TEACHERS AND TEACHING
7 •
e gyre the . folh ing articlson Termit
ers awl Te telling,' from a book , entitled
" What to Do, and Why," by 'Nelson
Sizer, believing that • there are many
thoughts which, if acted . upOn wisely,
:aay . benetit the teachers of this county.
"It is thought by some people.,
those who hai - ebut little educat Um,
nzi :ire obligrd to work at some laborious

: ttett all the' professions are--..ery
asy; and they often say that the lawyer,
• ahe tlinister, the teacher, the physician.
their money with little or no la.mr.
persons -seem to _think that the nan
who .hies not raise a - 1)61ml of corn, make
poise shoe, or,work up trees into cord
.
cord
wi.od or lumber, is not a prOducer, and
thert fore is a pensfoner upon the bounty
and leniency of the 'world. We hold that
the thinker, the. brain laboreri and espe
rialiv the teacher who instructs the
Notm; in all that pertains to liteniture
;old :-:cience, is as really a,producer as he
who uses his knowledge towards the ac
complishment of business purposes. The
_teacher who instructs the pupil how to
keep aceounts,and qualifies him for corn
invrce, -banking and other business, con
tributes as essentially to the acquisition
of property as he dbes who keeps the ac
=counts, plans the bdsidess, and works out
the results. One might say that the
gritid-stone is not a producer, because it
never cuts down' trees, or hews - timber, or
mows grass, or planes boards; but the ax,
the scythe, and the plane are useless ;with
bat the sharp edge which the grindstone
imparts. Se the human mind sent out
into life, without the Sharpening influence
of education, cannot with facility hew its
.way to success. Let the teachdr then feel
that he is the main spoke in wheel of,
the world's success, and while : doing his
duty faithfully. and nobly, let!' him stand
erect as one of the world's nOblemen.
SOUND CONSTITUTION AND HEAL-Tn.—
Rut what does the teacher rCiptire? Men
tally and physically, what should be be
First, an elastic and energetic constitu
tion, with a predominance of the Mental
and- Motive temperaments, which give
activity and compactness to the mind,
strength and earnestness to the character.
lle also needs health, and ample physical,
exercise which promotes health. A sickly
dyspeptic, nervous, half-dead man or wo
man, has no more business in the school
room as a teacher, than a crippled horse
has on the race-course, or a half-wrecked
leaky ship has to go forth upon the ocean.
The teacher requires a large and : active
brain, with a decided predominance of
the perceptive intellect; the lower part of
the forehead should be amply developed.
These faculties enable him to. acquire
knowledge. He should haVe a good mem
ory, that he May treasure up and hold in
reserve.the:.-knewledge which he wishes
to retain.
The teacher should have-language, that
intiy lie able to explain easily and fully
at which lie knows, and is engaged in
- ....aeb:ng. 1h should also have str.ng
:casoning faculties. so that he can auswer
ipiestions of huildsitive pupils; t
mil see the bent and-:bearing of his
astructions, and be able to explain ihe.
;bilo,ophy of auy point involved= in the
:object of. instruction. He should love
children,—be loving, and fraternal. He
shouhr topable.to exercise patience in the
monotiThy, which is more or less incident
to teaching. He should have sufficient
Self-Esteem, which will give him dignity
and ease and weight ot character, and en-,
able him so to carry himself in the pres
ence of his pupils as ;'..0 command their
respect,
.and thereby secure obedience
without fret or friction. The teacher
,hould be strictly Conscientious, thatlle
:nay be just to all, mid to himself; for_
nothing so undermines the authority or
proper influence of the teacher - as the ex- .
iiibition of partiality, favoritism, or injus
tive in any form in the school: ,
ISE
STEADY Alci) Ellr.lL ‘ TEMPER. —A
teacher should never shOw himself out of
temper, unless he wishes to create a liable
in his school-room, yet his Combativeness
and Destructiveness should be fully de
veloped; for be who is destitute of these
will be soon understood by mischievous
urchins, who read mind better than we
sometimes suppose, and will instantly
take advantage of 'any weakness or defect
,of the teacher. The faculties of Combat
iveness and Destructiveness in human
character impress boys as digtinctly as
large horns on an of impress his associ
ates with fee ling ,of lespect for him.•
'either force of charaeter in man, nor
the_ horns of the ox, need be strikingly
used, but it is best that they
. be possess
ed and their moral influence felt. The
teacher should cultivate a kindly tone of
voice. If he has a harsh one, she should
school himself into a modulated expres
sion of it, and his whole mat4r should
be.stieli as to inspire respect mingled with
a trace of fear. It is well, genrally, for
a teacher-to speak in a low tone of voice,
Bever raising it above the . convcrsational
key. Scolding, sluirpness, , Land loudness
of voice are found rarely in conjunction
with good order and government in a
'school or elsewhere: A teacher organiz
ed thus, and well instructed in the
branches he is expected to teach, ,will
never be suspected by his, pupils of any
want of information or ability to instruct
them. .
The teacher who has his knowledge at
his tongue's end, and his answers ready
as soon as question. 4 are propounded, will

an excellent organizathai, mental and
*laical; that he needs the Christian
graces, carried in a spirigot wisdom. How
many teachers in a hundred would wet
these requisitions? How many are there
who fall below them who might greatly
improve ? and, from having difihreut tne
cess, Might triumph, and become not only
exceedingly useful, but highly esteemed,
popular and happy, as well ai successful
in a pecuniary sense."
We would like to hear that all the
teachers in Bradford county are meeting
with success. Teachera! you can sue:
ceed; probably not all, but you should all
'make the effort; the object is worthy the
effort, ['or the object - of the true teacher
is a noble one. We know you have many
difficulties to contend With, many obsta
cles tä overcome, but
. by 'patient industry
and perseverence you can conquer. Do
not epect to do too much in a short time,
for trees that, grow slowly, generally are
the Most duriblei . so with any change or
reformation in your school, you must
/work the change gradually. Sudden or
radical changes are apt to meet with
greater opposition than gradual Ones, and
arc not near so lasting. '
You must often ask yourself the ques
tion, " How can I obtain a - certain result,
in my school this winter ?" Decide upon
what you desire to accornplish, and then
use all the skill you canto obtain that re
sult. Do not be afraid of accomplishing
toolnuch.- The field of the teacher is a
large one, and there are many chances
chances for improvement. Do not permit
a failure in one instance to deter you from
working the nuiro vigorously to succeed
in the ilext. Do not permit !success in
.nn , respect to blind fOu •to yoUr defects
And we❑kresses in other matters.
tl:ings as they are, and where
%Hey are not right, do all in your power
correet hew. If you are,teaching in a
le;:zbborbood where the people take no
utcrest is schools, or eduCatiou, create
ui interest, but do not sit idly by and
dud fault and grumble. , Difficulties are
not overcome by fault-finding ; it only
makes matters worse.. You must, and
. ,
you can remove them , onlyby ' toil. Are
you willing to do the work? Aro you
Killing to make any sacrifices ? Are you
willing to work for the elevatiOn of man
kind? Are you willing to work for suc
cess? If you are, teachers, you must be
willing to do all these; and if you are not
willing to do this, you have not the spirit
of the true teacher.
We believe you will do all in yciur pow
er during the winter term before you, to
accomplish grandresults, and i l if you have
de - fermi ed to do all you can, !you will be
astonished at the close of the Iterm to see
how much you have accomplished.

T e Teachers' Association met at Wya
lusi g 'on Friday and Saturday of, last
week, and, all the teachers in attendance
were well pleased with the work done.
There were some resolutions discussed at
this meeting, which if actedupon by the
teachers throughout the county, would
prove valuable to the educational inter
ests of the county. We hope the teachers
of the county will attend these meetings
Whenever it is' possible to do - so. That
the Association has accomplished a work
which could have been accomplished in
no other way, must be admitted by all.
Through its recommendation and influ
ence a uniformity of books was adopted
some ten years ago, and again in 187 G a
change in some of the text boOks was rec
ommended, which will
, no doubt be heed
ed throughout the county. For 'nearly
two years this EdUcational, Department
has been maintained by a corps of Associ
ate Editors appointed by the Association,
which we hope has not been labor in vain.
We predict a successful career Tor tnis
department, in the future, and if the As
sociation, the teachers, and the people,
will take an interest in it, aud,give it
their support and influence, it' inay lead
to the establishment of an' educational
periodical in our county. .=
The Association has held regular s. i
sions for the past twenty years, and now
is the only 'county orglinization_ of the
kind in the State. Wed , elieve that legis

all the meaus within their power to suc-.

their wages without giving their patrons
an equivalent, but by laboring to accom
plish the true object of teaching. by mak
ing the pupils wiser; and better prepared
to4ight life's battles, and that they may.
grew up to be useful men and women,'
and good citizens.
WE THINK the. School Directors of the
county, should not lower the wages of
the teachers; for we think " the labiner is
worthy of his hire," and if it was' only a
reasonable salary to pay $3O 'per month
two years ago, it is unreasonable to cut
down the wages to *25 per month for the
same school for the present.
TILE Scuoor. Directors should allow the
teachers of their district the week they
attend the Teachers' County Institute.
This should be mentioned at the time of
hiring the teachers. This is done in some
pasts of the County, and we hope ere long
it may become general thrpughout the
State;
To*A;cua Bonoccu is the only place in
the county where the teachers keep up
the Monthly institutes and teach twenty
days for a month.
WE HOPE the teachers in the different
parts of the county will send us some lo
cal educational news from these districts.
