Datien hower, of Minersville : , LADIES. AND .GESTL.:If EN : According to the terms of the COnstitution of our Association, it devolves upon • tne to - address you on the present'occasion"; and in so doing, I wish to offer - for your consideration a few suggestions on the subject of education ; which, .without taking up much of your time in the way of argumMat on the several points that maybe. presented, I shall kayo for you to carry out to their logical:conclusions. , • ' Some years ago a certain clergyman, whose name.it. may not be necesSary, here to men tion, undertook in a short address. to give the pupils :of nay school some good advice among some „other things that were said, told them to aids high.. 'Said he, - ,to use his own language, " aim, -high; boys, even if fit _last you SHOULD happen _to light on daddy's wood pile." : Still 'better, perhaps, was the. remark of a certain Professor before his class,, viz :' that, no matter what our calling or pip fession in, life'might.be, Whatetier we under took to do should alwayS be done in the best 'Manner possible, - -that excellence should rig ways be a prominent .characteristic of all our performances ; or, in other words, if we should, happen to be wood choppers, the wood pile . should .afford unmistakable evi dence that we understand our business . . It Lain harmony with this idea that.Solornon says, "Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might;" and He who spoke as "never man spake," says, "Be ye perfect." Not that any . one in.this life can attain to ah solute perfection ; but, in the language of an Apciatle, we_ are to go on to perfection ; that Is, we are to erect a, high standard of excel lence, and earnestly strive - to attain it. -.To accomplish this we, as -teachers, .should be neither too wise to learn, nor too old to imL prove; but should make each day's perfOrm • ance a critic of the last. ExcELsiort" should ever be our motto. It is with this view that professional men have. their conventions, and teachers hold their „Institutes and Associa-• dons.. And, hence ; we have met together to day to encourage one another's hearts and streegthen one another's hands in the great and arduous work of education ;;for, as "iron i3luirpeneth iron, so a man sharpeneth the .countenance of his friend." But. our mutual And, InviilAdS. Improvement should not be our only object ; we should also aim to benefit society. Still, if we can but improve Ourselves we• shall have aceomplished something for society ; for b'y improving ourieves we shall become more effici e nt_ as teachers, and by. thus elevating our profession the public will in the end be the gamer: . 'Notwithstanding the rapid advances that have been made in the cause of education dqring the past few years, very mubh remains yet to done; Not only among the masses; but among those who plume themselves on, account of their superior intellectual attain ments,-and even among teachers:themselves, do w e find:that erroneous views and false theories are entertained in regard.to educa tion. There are errors in regard to what cos:- EITITITrES an education, and errors in- regard to' the MAZTNIt of educating:., For, if it be true that • human perfection should be the grand end and aim of all proper education ; if it be true that man should be educated In his whole being—phySically, mentally, moral ly,. religiouily ; if it be, true, in short, that a thorough education consists hi the complete 'cultivation, development and.discipline of.all the faculties and powers of both mind' tied body,* then howlar short do we come of ac complishing this objectl How often - does it happen that the brain is, educated at the ex pense of the bones and muscles; the head; at the eipense of the heart'; the intellect, at the expense of the atlectionsl How seldom is it that Directors or parents care to inquire very olosely into the moral character or religious antecedents of those to whose care they are willing to entrust their. children ! All will adminhatthe teacher wields a more power ful influence in forming character, than the preacher; yet while parents are willing to I place their .children in the hands of a man of questionable moral character,how would they cry out against sending the skeptic, the -pre lane, the gambler, or the drunkard into 'the pulpit I • In regard to physical education I need only refer to the fact that, -were it -not for a pro hibitory law, many parents Would send their children to school at the tender ages of three,- four and five- years, where in many cases, perhaps, they would be obliged to sit - for six hours.. a day in crowded school: rooms, on benches, without supports for their backs— their feet at the same time dangling Some six or:eight niches from the floor. • On•the other hand, many of our college graduates are so much used up by excesaive brain' work, ac companied with too little iihysical exercise, that for the rest of their days they . are fit for nothing else but the chamber of the invalid. A.gana, not considering that one great ob , pet of education should be mental discipline, and that without discipline there cannot be an - equal degree of efficiency,- there are thoae whii in this utilitarian age, cry down certain important brinckes of study because, as they suppose, they are, not eminently practical.— All such would do well to remember that "discipline, self-cultnre, soundness of judg ment, positive attainment, all vyhich are im plied In - knowledge, are equally necessary for the discharge of our duties to our Maker, to ourselves and to our brother." • The .same opinion, too,' is beld by many As regards the education .of remelts. igrtontig the fact that, other-things being equal, they that know, thit most will be the moat capable. "Of what ,use it,'" it is said, "that the fe male should pnrine studies or cultivate arts for which ahe,oan have rio practical applica tion ?" As it 'our country bad not been consul with ,treason, and our ltutd deaolited by-a; wicked rebellion, "why," It is a s k e d, "should woman concern - _herself about the political history, the constitution;* or. the ju• risprudence oilier country, seeing that she is r.deprived of the political kmaise, and ineli gible tO legislative or judicial °fade ?" 'As if It were not the province of :the mother to train up_and instruct the minds and hearts of her offspring, and 'mold their character, "why," it is- inquired, - "shmild ,she know anything of. theology, except as a body of positive dogmas. inasmuch as she can: either preach nor- - perforirt any p•leatiy; function?"

''that -pupils' should not by re, gaited to take books from school to study— t that two branches were ell that could Well be attended to, and that they should- be thor coughlY mastered before taking,up any others --thaA xxvo recitations daily were quite suffi bient—that (the Scholars being evidently but indifferently prepared f‘tr their work) the tea Cher should impart instruction from a ma gnine or newspaper,.and take care that his pupils obtain at. least one additional idea each day " There are other teachers again who gning to the opposite extreme, - think that scholars : should have some ten or, a dozen branches of study to attend •t 6 daily.. and who cOnsequently, send them home loaded down with books somewhatifter the manner of' a pedlar with his pack. Again, though it is entirely fit that there should be a gond, understanding between pa rents and , the person who has charge of their children, and very desirable to secure paren- - tal co-operation. yet there are, many parents who, forgetting that for the time, being: the teacher is in LOCO PARESTIS. assume the right to control their children :while at school; as well RS when at home;; and teachers are fre quently not a little annoyed by the repeated 'mandates they•redelve• in regard to matters that fall entirely under their own jurisdiction, One parent does not approve of 'corporal -punishment; another will not have hischil dren• kept in after dismission ; another, again, will not permit any punishment, wherever, Another thing which'has a very pernicious influence on the progress and 'efficiency, of . our _public., schools, is the_ practice which many parents have of -writing notes for their children, requesting the teacher t 4 dismiss them at unseasonable or irregular-hours.—' This is a crying evil which, wherever it is tokrated, should be'' abated. -The custom once established, children, in order to attain their object, will be at no loss for plausible pretexts :to play, upon the feelings of -their pa . rents.- Thus, day after day, week after week, and month after month; .will scholars bring notes that they may be excused an hour or two before the usual time of admission • and' as a result,: by the time the hour for closing school bas arrived; there Will often be but few of their number left. By such a method as this, not only have important-lessons been lost, and it may. be, &salutary course of dis= - cipline interfered with, but the pupils' that have remained behind have become uneasy' and restless, the patience of the teacher has been tried, and the school has been more or less.denforalized. Would it not be well for some parents to learn that their children. when sent to school; . assume new 'relations and have new duties to perform'i and that the teacher - cannot be interfered with till those duties are performed-without inflicting an injury upon their own children as well as upon the School ? • • Time would fail me were I to make men= :ion of all the mistaken views, the absurd no tions, and the erroneous practices that obtain in regard to moded of, punishment, arid the:. proper authority and jurisdiction of the teacher. 'But there is one thing more that, on account' of . its evil tendency, I must yet. allude to. I think .experience has proved that, as a general thing, •the female is better adapted to the instruction. of • the 'primary classes than the . male ; and if children were brought up to reaped their mothers and trained to obedience at h0me.,.1 arn suaded that in, the majority, of eases, she would do as well ,at least as the male, with the, older end larger scholars; butit not un frequently happens- that the seeds of rebel lion against their teacher are sown - in the hearts of their children at - home 'Parents . who believe that no female is capable of gt)v e'rning children, instead - _of lightenibg the teacher's labors by a hearty co-operation, are often but too readyto spealzin disparagement of her in the presence of their children, which soon leads them .to imbibe the opinions of their parents, and hence increases the labors of the.teticher in 'a tenfold proportion. It might be well, perhaps, before closing these tew remarks to make mention of still another serious drawback to the efficiency and success of our public Schools; And that is IRREGULARITY OF ATTENDAFGE. Too many parents seem'to think that it makes_very little difference whether their children are regular in their attendance or not;.and_ the conse quenee is, that, in -many of our 'schools the loss is more than tiftyper cent .of the whole time. In my ownimmediate' deptatment, where the best time is made, I find, by refer ring. to my school register, that the average loss for the - last term was ',forty-seven per cent. About one third of the scholars missed more than half of.the school term; more than one-half of them nitsSed as much as , one-third of the term; and about three-fourths of them missed upwards of one-fourth of 'the term. • There was not a single: individual that made full time,—one scholar missing not less. than eleven days and another nineteen. No one, perhaps, but the experienced teacher can fully understand the bad effects ofirregular attend arnw on the 'morals of dschool. For in general not only do those who are frequently absent soon' lose all interest in their studies, but their irregularity has a tendency to retard the pro-• gress of those who are usually present. In this respect private schools and seminaries have - the advantage, inasmuch as, they are better able to secure regultirity,in attendance and more especially is this the case when children are sent from home to some distant place. to receive their education. - Like the air we breathe and the water we drink, bles sings and privileges that are. the'most coal men are not always properly appreciated It would; perhaps, be a good thing, if the Phila delphia plan, which requireg regular attend ance, or a forfeiture of seat could everywhere be adopted.. And, here permit me to remark, that if the people will it, wherever there are a sufficient number of scholars to form graded' schools, our public schools may, be 'made equal, if riot superior to any other , schools in the country. Bat in order to realize this, -it will be necessary • , - • • • - ler. That the schools be strictly graded. - 2sv. That the scholars be regular in attend ance.• - . • ' - .• • ' Ban.

A reduction of the- burdens of taxation is spoken of by the President's message, there port of the Secretary of the Tre tsury. the re-_ port oPthe and will, • doubtless, be referred to by, the report ; of the new Revtitue Commissioner, Mr. Wells. It seems to - be regarded by all the Members of the Administration asa settled, .thing that our national taxation is to be re- . (heed, because the product is at present so, great as to warrant ' s remission , and because the burdens are quite .oppressive upon the people. We must, however,. saT,that ' the tone In which this subject is treated' by these public functionaries is not such as to merit or to meet with entire public approbation—first, ". on account of-its being somewhat slightingly dealt. with ; and second, from the extraordt-. nary position assumed by the Treasury report that the customs duties and internal taxes should be equaliteff. To judge from what we read in Mr. McCulloch's :report, he is more inipressed with the need of lower duties on foreign imports than the necessity of reliev- - ing the suffering industry of the country from. the present-oneous taxe , ,.sud he mixes up his references to the tariff in asmrious sort of *ay with the blighted state of many bran ches of manufactures, Ise though . he believed " that the latter resulted, from the protective' duties. - • • . _ As we have observed the same obliquity of argument In some of the free tnide organs of New York,- we infer that instead of proposir g to relieve the country of -a prirtitin of the heavy internal taxes, the whole free trade , school of politicians now intend- to use_ the general clamor against the .taxes as a means of obtaining lower duties. In plain words,- the position . assumed by the.government is' that unleas we are prepared to have a low' scale of duties en imported goods., we are not to hope for fk lowering of internal. taxation." If a man complains that, under the existing inquisitorial' internal revenue ,system, his spoons are counted, his watch, piano. Income, furniture, _etc., rated and taxed, ho is told in this report that we must lower the duties on foreign imports in the" same ratio that we lower his taxes. , • The Secretary does hot argue to proVe that protective duties or imported goods injure the domestic industry of a country. lle coolly assumes It to be so; and treats the matter as thmigh all the world agreed to" it. Indeed, the peculiar toile in which he talks about free trade, and the manner in Which he speaks of the present protective duties as a hard . necessity,- to be borne only so long as may be unavoidable, is somewhat refreshing, when we come to consider the thorimghly protective principles of the Republican party and Its, representatives in Congress As the Secre tary is having a new tariff bill prepared, to , be laid before Congress, it is important that Congress and the public should bear these things in mind. The great popular demand now. is that the enomous internal taxation shall be abated as far - as.possible, that manu factures especially should be relieved of .their cumulative taxes, and that the machinery of the internal revenue system should be made less•obnoxious to the people and less onerous in its inipositions and operations. We have beard no considerable numbers of them de- , mand that more encouragement shall be ex tended to the importation of foreign goods, " nor do we believe that that is the sort of re• Ilef needed: .As for keeping the tariff- and the Internal taxes equal, we regard the pro position ss monstrous, and the mere fact of its being made now shows that we were right when we said that free trade Influences were allowed to gulde In the original- adjustment of the taxes. The. people have felt the crushing influence of that policy They know how. mntirely pernicious it is, and they are determined to get rid of it. We want protection maintained as the rule in-our tariff, and • light taxation as the rule internally.— PHILADELpRIA NOSTII AMERICAN. BILL ON IN:PEAOH,NENT The Constitution of the United_ States oro-• vides, section four, that ;Abe Presidenr. Vice President, and all civil officers of the United States shall be removed from °Men' on Im peachment for-and conviction of treason, bri- • bery, or other- high crimes and misderhean ors." There Is nothing said in regard to the exercise of his" official functions pending the trial of impeachment; but this - was left as in England, where the practice was well tinder stood, to the high tribunal before which the - officer should be tried. In most cases tried • - before the House of Lords the parties have been. suspended, but this has not been the uniform practice. -It is important that the taw should be well &fined in such proceed ings. and declared .by statute. instead of be ing left to nneerutin'determination by prece dent. We should claim that, on general principles, no civil officer whose official acts bad been of such a character as to subject him to impeachment ought'to continue to ex ercise the functions of his office - daring trial. The respect due to the law eau hardly be se cured when people are subjected to. &Cid rid nist ratien. ofrt he law by judges or executive officers whit are, themselves under impeach- • ment and amenable to its penalties. Theo- . retically, at least, the officers of the Govern ment must, go before the world clean handed to entitle them to respect, and it does not comport with the d gnity Of a tree people or the, well-being of society that men 'should be permitted to execute or administer the laws who are in the attitude of untried criminals. It is especially important that an officer who is clothed by the jaw with vast power and patrOnage, which he may wield corruptly, to defeat the.ends of justice, should be prohibi ted from exercising the functions of hls office during trial upon Impeachment. Should the. Congress of the United States, In pursuing the inquiries now set on foot re garding thd administration Of President John- . son, for instance, deem it a duty to the corm- , try,to bring him before the bar of the Senate' for trial, it is apparent to the simplest under; standing - that he ought not to be permitted . to 'wield tha vast powers of.the nation during trial. He may be held accountable for many -acts of official turpitude, and he should not be permitted to add to them :by, attempts to corrupt the channels of, justice. Of the im peachable offences alleged against him we • may name usurpation of the legislative fano tions of the Government.; a corrupt -use of the appointing power; bribery ,of people by promises of office ; demoralizing the. mill'ary arm of the-Government by the same means; corrupt exercise of the pardoning power; wilful non-execution of laws passed by Con- -- gress ; appointing men to office after rejec tion by the Senate; appointing others who could not take the oath of allegiance t. wicked interference hi behalf of rebela and eneour agement of the massacre of New Orleans These, Among many other matters alleged: against the President, require investigation, and the remarks orMr. Bontwell and other members of the House indicate' that -this in vestigation will, be pursued, and that Con gress will not shrink . from its duty • in the premises. In view of this,important conjuncture, as ,well as to settle by law an important questicin to govern all similar cases, we learn that ,a bill has been prepared to suspend the func tions of any civil officer under impeachment' during trial.' This matter is one requiring earnest attention and dare, and when adopted, will relieve . any future action that may be taken in the direction •of impeachmerit of a difficult-question of precedent.—Woutsorort Curti-act& . , A REMARECLBLE CALCULATION =ln the year 1816 Elkanah Watson, thefriend of Benjamin Franklin, made public the results of a calcu lation as to the population of the United States for each decade to the year 1900.
