District InsOintes. •
,
`We, have observed - that teachers naglect
too much the organization of district in
stitutes. 4We do not Mean, of course,that
every sehool di.trict should have its insti
tute; because• that, in many instances,
would be a physical impossibility, if not
a ridieulous' absurdity; but we mean that
every county sho j uld be•so districted as to
Milord the advantages of an institute to
every teacher wining to-,einbrace them.—
The - topography of the county, the size
and lov.ttiozi uf school districts, facility of
communiratiMi between them, - &c:,
are considerathms which:should be renrd
ed in the (organization of district institutes.
For ins ano:e ; the townships surrounding
a large town might very . properly ibe at
tached for institute pnrposes to the • town
itself; two or three townships, lying to
gether, would constitute another institute
district;, an isolated township, large or
would constitute another, &c. - The
county being thus districted, every ‘caeli
er in it should feel it to - be his duty to be
ccmc an active, working member of the in
stitute within his- reach. If our friend
should happen to be employed in a dis
trict -in which no institute hiid not yet
been organized, we,trusthe would not be

baCkWoods comities, and we do not be

MONTROSE, Pi., THURSDAY, APRIL' 3,18;62.
• , .
We have-observed that teachers iit 611-
(Ind:frig district institutes' are not
sulficietaly methodicai and practical.
Too little attention is givento„class drills,
and too Much to random discussions hav
ing no relevancy to theteacher's vocation.
We have known institutes to be trans
formed into political debating clubs; and
we have known one respectable org,:iniza
tion to Artiste' . a whole day irt discus
singst he question, "Is it not-a mistake to
say that the Americans speak and write
the L'agli.sh language?" _ Surely, a& such
proceedings in an association of teachers.
are entirely out of place, and-lead to no
beneficialseSults. Every institute should
be organized with a fixed purpose possess
ing the - Minds of its founders to Make it a
means of professional improvement; and
-to. aceemplish this purpose, a- carefully
matured plan of action should be adopted
and strictly adhered to. promineptin that
plan we would place regular class drills
in all the branches or a Common school ed
ucation, and next to -it we - would place
the discussion ofiNientitie questions,meth
vds of teaching, 41.,.e., These discussions
mig . ht be introduced by, written reports
upon topics pre' inusly assigned for inves
tigation to members ofthe institute. The
reports would furnish to the writers a
capital exercise in English composition; I
and the discussions,if conducted with dig
nity and necording to parliamentary usage,
-would possess all theattractions of a reg-
I
ular delyitibociety; and be attended
*
with adore- direct benefits.,- - Nevertlreless,
class drills arc the chief good and should
take.preeedence over all other exercises:
A majority of teachers enter the prat:R-
I slim withoht an adequate scientific educa
-1 tioni and, soio• gn as the present low rears,
ot• wages prevail,' but teo orthem can af
ford to pursue their studies in any other
-
institution of learning than their own
school'rooin. To all the unfortunates - the
class drills of a well conducted institute
supply the best futhstitute yet devised for
the institutions of a corps of regular pro. :
fessors. -Indeed, the class drill: of an
lin
stitute should be in forni not much unlike
rthe'reeitat ions-of all colleges and seminar
i ies—each branch of study having its :fp
' propriate expounder, or teacher., Thus,
at the organization of an institute in any
given district, Mr. A. should be chosen
teacher oforthography and reading; Mr.
! IL of menial arithmetic; Mr. C. of practi
cal arithmetic ; Mr. D. ufgeogtaphy and
1 history.; Miss E ofgrarnmar, &c. A. doz;
jell meetings of such Mt institute as." we
have thus hinted at, would open Many a
I casket of intellectual- jewels that would
otherwise never have been unlocked, and
give an impetus to its members that we'd
result only in good„.
We have placed the district institute
before the co:may iitlittite in order and
importance,-and we think justly: District
institutes have at least three advantages
over their more ambitions namesakes;
they are not S'Oexpensive; they can meet
oftener; and they do not, embarass the
modest and inexperienced teacher. But
. the vounty institute should not be neglect
ed,-for it,•in turn, possesses advantages
rnot known,to the. district ; institute. lt
commands it higher orde'r of talent in the
. persons of distinguished educator's and
leeturers; it deals with a higher class of
subjects,ainl thus widens the range of the
1
teacher's Mental vision ; it extends his ac
.quaintanee ; and 'it rods off imany of his
rough points by bringing him in contact.
i with those- who have seen more of the
•; world than lie. By all means, let there
/ be a week's - county institute once a%year
lin every county in the State, and let no in
i difference, no local or prefessieMal jeal
-1 ousy, be suffered to hinder its. usefulness.
General HaHeck.
In reply to an. invitation signed by six
hundred children of the public schools in
St. Louis, sent to General HaHeck, solicit
ing his attendance at their . concert and
exhibition for the bendit.of the poor, the
following admirable answer was ileceived,
and read the assembled audience, just
at the close of the entertainment
* * cannot regard this invitat
ion of Six hundred Children of St. Louis as
so- much a compliment to myself, person
ally, as to the glorious cause of the Union'
which, in a certain degree; I was sent here
to represent. ,
. The corrupt politicians - of the present
day I will probably, from self-interest, con
tinue to fan the thanes of discords. But
our chidren should be taught that we are
all ramblers of the same Way, "and that
our country - can never be permanently
divided. • We must instil into their minds
Ithese sentiments of fraternal affection and
pure patriotism which alone can restore
peace to oui country and eradicate all
trace of the animosities - which have been
"engendeied by' this :unholy rebellion.—
Give my sincere thanks, to the, children
whom yott represent, foi their very, kind
invitation."
General Shields.
. .The hero'of the late battle . near Win-.
Chester is essseatially - a fighting - man.—
Appointed a Brigadier General of Volun.
leers in Jely, 1846, he served through the 1
Mexican , war. In the . battle of Cerro
Gordo, while reading his brigade, . he was 1
shot through -the lungS; the ball entering
fhirly in front and passing-directly out at
' the back.• The principal army surgeon'
declared it to be°'anatomically impossible'
that he should recover,bnt recover he did,
in spite of anatomy; andXhile leading hie
command at Chapultepee, he.-was'again se
. N:erely wounded. Some men have a dang
erons affinity for powder-and ball, and Gen.
Shields is one of these:-., In the recent
battle he is again WoutOed‘;,,which means
that he sets his soldiers an- example of
dashing valor whicl will. insure, success
wherever be commands. _

The following is in Henry Warßeecl
er's best vein
The difference between seven and eight
is not very great ; ;only a single unit.—
And yet that difference has power ; over

dignity; Thns, at Buffalo, my, boots Were
set out at night to be blacked: In' the
morning no booth were there, though all
the niathboring rooms had been served.- 7 ,
I rang, rang twice. "A pretty hotel—
neatly eight o'clock; going out at nine,
breakfast to be eaten. and no hoots yet."
The waiter came, took My somewhat cm
phatic'erder, and left. Every minute was
an hour. Italwaysis when you are out
of temper. A mini in his stocking feet, in
a third story of a hotel, finds himself re
stricted,in locomotion. I went. to the
door, looked up and'dowd the' all, saw
frowsy !chambermaids; saW afar off, the
master pf the coal, saw gentlemen -walk
ing, in ! bright . boots, unconscious of the
privileges they enjoyed, but-did not see
any 0114 coming with boots. -A Ger-
Man set-% afit-at, length came, round - and
ruddy faded, very kind and 'goad natured,
honest and stupid; He informed me that
'a gentleman had already taken boots No.

up; thought he was at breakfasting.—
Here was anew vexation. ' Who was the
man who hadtaken my number and gone
for
- my iboots? Somebody had them on,
warm and nice, and was enjoying his cof
fee, while I walked up and down with
less patience, who had none too much at
first. No servant returned. I rang again,
and sent energetic and staccato ines•sed:

stockings. • Time was -.speeding. It was
quartep past, eight ; train at nine, no Mints
and nojoreakfast... I slipped on a pair of ,
sandal rubbers ; ton large . by inches for]
my naked foot, and while I shuffled along I
the hall, they, played up'and down on my
iiiet; First, one-shot off; that secured,
the ether dropped on the • stairs; people
that I met looked at me as if they thought
that-I iNaa not well over last night's Spree,
It, wits very annoting. Reached Alm
office and expressed my Mind First, the
clerk rang the bell three times -furiously,
then ran forth himself, met, the German
boots, who had boots 79 inhis hand, nar

wear them. Who knows but 79 had my
bolts? ; Some curiosity wad beginning to
be felt -by the byStandera. It was likely
that I should have half the hotel inviring
after my boots. I al)hor n scene.. Re

hold they were mine! There was the
broken pull-kraps ; the patch on the right
side, and the very shape of my

77 and7not 78. And all this "hour's tu
mult arose from just the difference be

I lost my boots; lost the train, lost my
temper, and, of course, lost my manners.
Everybody does, that loses his temper.-
-But boots on ; breakfast served, a cup of

SERTALIttirs POLITICAL ARRESTS.
The New York World, an anti-deinoc
rotic paper, speaks out boldly against the
assumption of power on the part of Wm.
IL Seward. If a democratic editor six
ninnths ago, had dared to Write such an
article, he would probably have been. torn
awaY4rom his family and friends and
business by the orders_qf this petty" tyrant
:lad 10.60 to some remote prison there
to lulditate silently upon the blessings of
free speech, a free. press, and life ia a land
of frqdom.
The 'World says: These letters de
cach(it,were an unheard of thing in any
country not ruled
: by a despot.. INeVer
before, since the barons . exacted Magna
Charta at Runnymede, = did the Anglo
Saxop race submit to such an 'assumption
of poer. • The fact, extraordinary as it
is, is incontrovertible, that the American
SecritaFy of State has exercised- a power
in immuring American citizer.s, Without
judieinliwatratit or trial,, which -neither
liCharles I. nor James IL; in' the ;utmost
r.t.retclA of their royal prerogative, ever
I durst:attempt ; though the one did nrbitra

enty years ago ;" and in abotbet place,

Senators of !Penasylvania !characterized
him as "a man who had dodo more,
in

that he '(Phillips), was "pr9Od .to sit at
