Steadily as the daylight merges into darkness, solemnly as the evening shadows shroud the earth, and with a warning to us all, each hour, of the flight of time, the new clock in the Court House towvr tolls the number Indicated by the hour hau l. And thus will It every toll, while the long procession of e.ic'i succeeding genera tion silently wends its way to the quietness of that long repose which eternity alo'ie shall breitk. The aged will hear the toll with a tha ik fulness that speiks to them of the glad!y welcomed closing scene. The child iiew'y-born will listen to the num bered hours, us promising u future so full of Joy and happiness. And the lov.r bewail the few strokes that warn him of daylight, and that he must soon leave his sweetheart, and hie him to the sober hum drum of every day life From its watch tower in the Court House steeple the clock now new. will as it grows older und older, count the hour of birth, that ushers a soul into the world; the happy hour that makes two souls one in the bonds of holy wedlock ; the changing, scenes of our ll'e at all times and under all circumstances; and Anally when clone with the bau bles of time, mark the hour of oui exit from the vanity of the world. The clock was manufactured by the Howard Clock Co. of Boston, Mass. and was placed in jiu-ition by Mr. Prescott an employee of the firm.

There can be no failure however, if there is a good attendance. Tho citizens of Ridgwuy can give much encourage ment by attending ca manse, t lie day as well as the evening sessions. There is room in the court house for ail. Wjb meet during the interval between Christmas and New Year so that b. ills and parties held on the holidays named need not conflict with our sessions. The Institute is always a great financial benefit tei the place in which it meets and that it gives tone ami culture to n community is beyond question. I It. inking too much , citizens of Bidgway to request you to give attention to the institute? Is it right to receive the patronage of more than one hundred teacher for a week and turn your back to all their meetings? Is it praiseworthy, when you know the dale of the institute, for you to ret up something to iulerfer and conflict with it? I call upon you all to make the success of the Insiit' te a matter of personal anxii'ty.

Lntta : 1 have the honor to report that the Fifth Brigade, to the command of which I wa assigned when commis sioned a Brigadier General In the National Guard of Pennsylvania, lias not materially change-d hi numbers or In organization since the annual re port from these ho.i iquarters lor tue year 18T9, and that It, now, us then, comprises the , Fifteenth, Sixteenth and Seventeenth Regiments of In fantry and the Tltusvllle Battery. During the year the term of so many men of Company C, 17th Regi ment, expiree!, us to bring that organ ization below a minimum us to members, nnd it was deemed advisable to disband the Company, which wa elone, and to recruit a new one ut Brad ford, which was admitted in its J) I ace. Company B. loth regiment, having failed to show any disposition or ability to Improve from the inferior condition in which it appeared ill 187!) was mustered out the service, and a company was recruited in Its stead at New Brighton. These two companies passed their first inspection at Camp Mayes in September, ond made promise of a successful future. A change was also made in the command of the 17th regiment, the resignation of Colonel Mageu lii'ing followed by the election of Captain Kurds, of Company B, as Colonel, un officer whose experience and ability as Captain made him a suitable person to assume the responsibility of a regi ment. Colonel Carpenter of the 13th regiment, Colonel Wiley, of the li'tli regiment, and Captain E.nery of the Battery, have taken great interest in their commands, and as a result of their continued exertions the troops were paraded for tho fall inspection with fuller numbers and in a state of greater excellency, in my estima tion, than ever before. The encampment ordered at Camp Hayes in September was attended by every company, and despite a contin uous rain of thirty hoars, which would have tried the temper and discipline of seasoned soldiers, the troops were kept under reasonable re straint an.l instruction lor u week, making such proficiency In drill and guard duty as to enable me to con sider the encampment a succ-sh, and worthy of annual repetition. I would, however, call your atten tion to the advantage it would be to the Commonwealth and to the country at large to put every guar Isnian in a position where a day's service for regimental inspection in the spring, and a week's service in imiiiii in 1 1 fall could be rigid. y cxacte I of him. Tins could bo done by providing ade quate pay for the timo given to this service from the regular pursuits of life, on which so many families de pend for tiieir daily food. With Mich an uhow.tnee, and wit.i provision for enforcing obedience to the laws, regu lations und customs of military service tho efficiency of the Guard could be raised to a standard little nhort of that of the volunteer e-oliiier of the late war The General closes by a few sug gestions and recommendations for the good of the Guard. The nearly 10,'JJO members of the National Gu trd of the Mate have been supplied with overcoats of the regulation patient.

There is some talk of holding the next em; impotent of tho Fourtu and Fifth Brigades of the National Guard of Pennsylvania at E:ie. A goon place. A Fatal Sleigh Itnio. ICrio Kviailiijf Herald, Last Tuesday Mr. and Mrs. Irwin Stark, of Harbor Creek township, met with a loss that was simply heart-rending, inasmuch as they had unwit tingly smothered their little baby girl of from three to four month old while out sleigh riding, by bundling it up too close y, Mr. and Mrs. Stark had been to ihe city on a shopping tour. At Jacob Ha Iter's stoiv, preparatory to starting for home, they warmed the wraps for their babe und bundled it up very carefully so as to protect it from the winds. The child wa.su very pre ty little thing and while being wrapped up was uuusally bright and active'. The precious little bundle wa put un eler tne robes and the road, about nine milts, covered in less than an hour and a half. When the babe was taken i mm what proved to be it deatli robe, it was thought to be sleeping, and several minutes elapsed ere the keen I'.ye of i he fond mother elis ivercd that she had been fondling a corpse. Mr. Stark who had gone to stable hi. horse waattracted by thescreanimf hi,, wife, and upe n ha-teuiiig to the house was informed of the sad state of aft'eir. No surgical examination was math hut the general supposition 1 that the child Wu smothered by being' too closly bundled up. The bereaved par ent who have a number of friend living In this city are almost distractcei over the lo.-s of their child.
