It is a matter of importance to the Methodist
Society, who are building so fine a church, that
some mode ut better protection from fire shall
be diyiscd. The people on Depot Street also
are deeply interested. There should be a large
reservoir built near the church, of sufficient ca
pacity for protection to property in that local

church root with an abundance of water. We all
ale interested in the support of the fire c.,m2

tion to property on that street, than if they
were located at Binghamton,lor there is no wa

other localities would not consider Otis probs.-
tim a luxury, like street lamps. The Council
should take it up and act upon it as an equita
ble necessity.

PerutmLedp.
To be a good penman Is worth the aspiration
of every one and especially of every student as
well as teacher. The grand fault we found
while engaged in school matters is a lack of
ly s aiform system, and by frequent changes of
• .chers nu regular formation of letters or
es lished hand writing is copied from, hence
no system and therefore no efficient progress
but the student has followed so many different
styles that his writing will always present
great inregularity and incongruity. Our view
is that a student to become agood penman,must
follow some system and permanently establish
a "hand writing" by continuous practice in the
same style and formation of letters. All can
not become beautiful penmen, but any ono can
become a good one by such continuous practice
with suitable perseverance.
We have lately examined a Bet of charta,pub
lished by Ivison, Blakeman, Taylor, & Co., of
New York, based on the celebrated Spencerian
system of Penmanship, and judge them to be
correct in princple as well as elegant in execu
tion.
The set comprises forty-seven charts, nineteen
by twenty-four inches in size, so printed as to
present the appearance of superior blackboard
writing. Each capital letter appears by Itself,
with analysis and printed description. The
letters are of very large size, the capitals and
loop letters being a foot in height, and the
small letters in proportion, so that they may be
distinctly seen across a large room. They are
upon a roller in such a manner that one page
is exhibited at a time.
The Spencerian System was first Introduced
in 1848, this system is used in many of the pub
lic or private schools of the cnief cities of the
United States, have received the eunmen
dation of many of the principal educators and
business colleges of toe United States, and is
the accredited source tram which a large por
tion of the best penmen bi.ve derived their
knowledge and skill in the art.
The price is $5 tor a set. B. Kinsman, of
3lontrose, hits been appointed by the publish
ers, agent for this part of the State,and proposes
to present the merits of these charts to school

by the lemon.
On Thursday evening we were treated to a
lecture on "School Government" by Prof Harris
ot the Keystone Academy at Factoryville. We
have heard a number of dfferent theories on this
difficult theme, but never one so much to our
liking as this. We wish every teacher and direc
tor in the county might have heard it, as we
think great profit to all concerned, wtll accrue
by the putting in practice of it. It was simply
this, in the abstract, that, to teach successfully,
you must control the mind and through that
control you can easily govern the body. By
the force of esteem, and intellectual and moral
character, are we enabled to accomplish the
most perfect school government. This has ev
er been our theory and we lest that we cannot
recommend It too highly.
The authorized reporter for the Institute will
give quite a full synopsis of the lecture which
we hope will be read and heeded. We will
give her report in our hest.

The Old Sanctum
The door is open, and the old carpet in the
sanctum Is being torn up—in fact it is all out
but a few tacks. The boys are wrestling with
the last breadth. It was a vivid red once,
bright and flamy as the red cheeks of a healthy
country lass as she trips through the dewy
grasses at early dawn In the morning It is
dirty and dingy enough now—faded and flabby
like the same clever Ins after years of matri
mony and children. It is a holy carpet, lull of
boles, we may say, and will hardly hold togeth
er long enough to be taken out. Take it up
tenderly, boys, handle it with care,not for what
it is now, but for what It has been. Ov,r it
have daintily tripped the fair feet of maidens ;
the heavy foot of the man from the country ;
"our oldest subscriber" has plowed over it ; it
has yielded to the tread of distinguished local
statesmen, and men of national repute and
glory : it has been pressed by the weary feet of
those who came to tell the ,editors of sickness
end death, of loved ones, and by the happy
hurrying of friends who tolled the merry mar
risgs bells, were singing for some one we knew.
Over that old carpet has passed many and many
a one, friends and foes, In the days that chang
ed its virgin beauty to the soiled and tattered
old thing it is now. Carry it off, and throw it
away. It has had Its day. A new one will
now take its place in the room waiting for the
editors "over the way." Dirt on the floor half
aninch thick here ; "over there" newness and
wliteneas and fleetness are waiting for us.—
Tor sway there, take down the pictures—they
an all our friends. They are dear by memory,
preious from long association. The placid,
stillliving features of the dead look down to
us amealungly, and the stateman face of Snm•
mer, s.sarcely no more, still serenely shines,
makingbright even the dusty walls, reverently
take themdown, for they still speak and their
spirit preseme prevadea the the place that has
honored them Then there is that pet picture
of her we prizd so in younger days, which has
also gone beton. There is the picture valued
for the pre-emnent prettiness of her whose
portrait it is—tie peerless Neilson—she of the
glorious eyes and glowing graces, winsome as
the warm, wacing winds walled from passion
ate clusters of be vine, and hosts of others, he
roes and heroine that have all acted on the
stage of life ; pktures from the graphic and
caricatures of sane. and sinners, including
Shepherd and Grate ; the "Sleeping Beauty"
all these surround usand fling their farewells
down from the wall. Some will be taken and
others left. We pass 0,, t , stop and l oo k b ac k

The money market tells the old, old

for it, and easy rate. There has been
scarcely a shade of difference for months.
Any one with good credit or backed by
undoubted securities, can be accommoda
ted with any amount at very low figures
Lenders are by no means sanguine in
their transactions of any greatlj increas

on other first-class bonds and stocks at
