Scientific Report read at Ferry

ICIITIIYOLgGY,
BY TOOK. SILAS WRIGHT.
Ichthyology, or the science of the
fishes of Perry county. Thcso may all
be included in the Orders ArMnthojHerygii
those having two dorsal tins, or which
the anterior one has spiny ray, and
Mulacopleri which have all the fin rays
toft aud carlilagenous, except the nrsl
in the dorsal and the first in tho pec
toral.
These orders aro subdivided into Fam
ilies, of which tho Percidae, or perch
Family includes two varieties of sunflsh
the rockfish, the yellowpcrch, and
the yollowpikeperch belong te the order
juat named. .
The Families of the Malacopteri aro
the Silurldae. Ca'.flshes, numbering cer
tainly three species. These- nre dis'.iuo
guished by a naked skin, a mouth beard
ed with long filaments, and a second
fatty dorsal fin. They are also readily
distinguished in eize and color.
Our common brook trout ts the Salmon
fontiiudi of Mitchlll. The Salmonidae
Salmon Family have an adipose tin and
scaly bodies. Rare specimens of the
Clupeldae Herring Jbamiiy have been
caught la the Juniata. ' The Bauridue
are represented in tho common pike.
The A nauilidue Eel Family is repre
sented in the bullheaded eel,. the sharp
nosed eel. and the silver eel which is
rradily distinguished by its white abdo
men. ; ' i i i i ; !
The Lamprey, 'Aniacoetus bicolur It our
final representative ot the cartilaginous
order. The two species are distinguish
ed at the mud lamprey, and a bluish
variety which attaches itself to other
fishes for locomotion. These to far at
known aro not met with elsewhere tbau
in the wateis of the Susquehauua and its
tributaries.
It it believed that fish may be domes
ticated to exhibit all the familiarity of
fowls for their keepors. , .
Observations.
Fish are cold blooded and had their
origin in the Devonian age ot the earth.
They are the oldest of all living things,
and yet we know the least about them
from the fact that tholr element it not
ours. They most nearly" resemble the
fowl creation ia their mode of motion,

uun uuu usea ior aoout me tame pur
poso as the eyes of birds, to protect them
from sudden attack.
Some of the questions that suggest
themselves to the amateur in the study
of Ichthyology are :
1. At what rate per day do fishes
usually travel during their migrations to
deposit the spawn ?
2. What is the limit of life of the
various species ?
3. Is the eel the product of its own
kind ? , ,
4. Iu what time does the eel attain
mature size ?
' BOTANY,
BY WM. E. BAKER.
Tho Report on Botany embraced an
introduction including the following sub
divisions 1. Botany lends to refinement
inculcating iove for the beautiful. 2.
The value of Botany in dollars and
cents as eviuced by the production of
improved varieties of wheat, fruits, veg
etables, &e, as shown by tho vegeta
bles in manufactures and in the Materia
Medica. 3. What is botany ? Archae
ology of plauts. Plants of the third day.
The Flora of Perry county. , '
The plants embraced in the report
comprised. Two series; Three classes; 93
orders 419 Genera; 4(J2spccios ; 12 varie
ties of which 351 ai t indlgenus, 153, ex
otic; 349, wild; and 155 cultivated. Of
these 354 were examined duriug the
season of 1873. There were 504 plants em
braced in the report.
In addition to these the po'.cn of 48
plants was examined with the following
realms :
1 had triangular pollen,
20 " oval "
6 " elliptical " ' . .
10 " globular "
2 " heath-like "
1 " Pine-like "
1 " very irregular "
1 " globular vate " s
3 '? spined
4 " lobed "
While examining plants several orders
and mauy plants known to abound were
omitted ou account of want of time.
Nearly all tho plants embraced 1n the
report were found withiu five miles of
Eschol. Enough has been seen to know
that Perry county has a very interesting
Flora.
63" All interested in the further inves
tigation of the sciences in Perry County
are requested to choose ono ot tho de
partments and a territory and go to
work to investigate and note for an an

will be announced in due time.
. .... . READING.
An abstract of a report read at Teachers' In
stitute, December 1, 1873,
BT B. D. FAHNESTOCK.
Not sufficient and attention given it in our
schools. Good reading is an attainment which
all should endeavor to acquire
It is of primary importance, since a knowl
edge of it is a pre-requisite in the attainment
of all scholastic knowledge. ' - '
The most common faults in reading are :
1. Lack of thought, and, as a result, want
of feeling.
2. Reading In a ping-song tone, or mono
tone. . i . . !
3. Too rapid reading, and as a result, indis
tinct articulation. ' ; '
Three things conttlbuto In tho formation of
these habits !'',, ' t
1. ' Teachers who have not given proper at
tention to methods of Instruction In reading.
2. Incorrect idea as to what constitutes good
reading. ' "
8. Text-books ot too advanced grade for the
pupils.
The obvervance of the following two princi
ples is essential to success In teaching reading:
1. Earnest and eager work at the study
scats In preparing for recitation.
2. The interested attention of every pupil in
the class every moment during recitation.
Before reading a lesson each ptpll should be
able
1. To pronounce every word In the lesson
at sight.
2. To spell every word In the lesson.
3. To explain the meaning of the principal
words.
4. To understand the subject matter. And
In'advanced classes
To state the standard plUli, time, quantity,
and quality.
Methods of teaching reading havo reference
1. To the Vocal Element; 2. The Mental El
ement; 3. To the Physical Element.
Under the Vocal Element is included :
1. Pronunciation 2. Modulation.
Beginners should be required to print the
difficult wprds of tUe lessen on their slates,
aud the enunciation of the vocal sounds in
these, and the pronunciation of the words
should Introduce a lesson in reading.
Modulation should be taught by example
The teacher's voice must be the pupils' con
stant guide. Short examples illustrating dif
ferent degrees of pitch, quantity, etc., should
be rendered by the teacher, and then by the
pupils individually and in concert.
tihurt leMoiu should be given, and but on
thing taught at a titiu.
Under the Mentid Element is included : 1 .
Tho Intellect I 2. The Emotions.
Pupils should never be permitted to attempt
to read what they do hot understand. Books
should be adapted to the ability of pupils j
and the teachers should by explauutlon, by de
scription, and by propec rendition render tht
language trttnaparent that pupils may see and
fuel every thought and, emotion expressed or
UKgettea.' ' " 1 "
Pupils should be required to read looking at
th$ teacher, glunelng at the book ouly when
pausing and lust long enough to Caleb the
words, iu this way reading will be iu reality
tatting from books. t .
Under the Physical Element is Included: 1.
Posture',' which should be easy and (iraeef ul.
2. Oestnres, which should bo graceful and ap
propriate, i . ' . - 'v . ' ;
