referring to its importance as a study and
the necessity of thorough • initriiction.
He closed by giving a number of exam

the result of defective teaching. A brief
'recess was now had, followed by an ad
dress on e lirliirdnetiki - by - Pref. Northiop.
In opening, the Speaker alluded to the
relation between. geometry and aritn.
totic, and contended that the elements
of t he former should be first taught in
th schools.- -He discussed this proposi
tion at some - length, and gave illustra
tions of the manner in which instruction
should be imparted.
The juvenile choir then rendered a
song in a &lasing :style ' _after which
Aire. Mary H. Sthlth entertained the In
stitute..with practical• illustrations of the
Manner of'teaching geography. The
speaker hel d -that, that, the teacher should

class drill in geography showing how
the study could be ma de profitable to
teachers and pupils usingg 'the outline
_map during the drill:This exercise was
an interesting one, .and those present'
paid the closest attention. _
The exercises of the morning twisted
were brought .to a,close by Prof. jghoe-,
maker, of Philadelphia, who gave a les
son in elocutiOn,- reading I.Hamlet's ed
'vice to the , playera,” and "Charcoal," a
humorous selection, after , which the In
tstltute adjourned until two o'clock.
EMI
Com Manned at two o'clock.
After the usual introductoty musical
exercises, Rev. C. G. Braddock was in
troduced and entertained the - institute
with a discourse on the True and False,
in relation to School Discipline: -
.The
Reverend gentlemim's remarks contain.
ee many valuable and practical hints on
the difficult question of enforcing disci's.
line in the schools, which the teachers
present would do well to pat in practice
hereafter. ' •
Dint Srnith was the next speaker. She
continued her lecture on , 421eography, U.
luatrating and enforcing by the outline
map, her idea of tesobing, in an interest
ing manner.. •
Prof. B. Northrop followed Miss
Smith in a brief address , on the incentives
to study, which he znpintained shOuld be
held out in the home government of the
pupil. Here they could be more power
tuLly brought to near upon the pupil, and
,thus the work of,:Xtiek:teacher would be
materially lessened. Oaths conclusion of
Rev. Northrop's remarks, the Institute
adjourned with musical; exercises, until
seven o'clock. • , .

As an opening exercise:
Prof. Shoemaker was;now introduced
and read a poetical selection entitled
“The Inquiry," and 'a humorous rte
count of his first appearance in print.
Rev. Thos. K. Beecher next addressed
the Institute, on the subject of "Govern
ment and the execution of laws." The
speaker, in his remarks, contended that
in a government like burs, the principle
of free and universal education must, as
an essential , principle, be recognized and.'
provisions accordingly made for .its sup
port. The experiment of 'self-govern
ment, ifever successful, would be so only
in a govecTment where. knowledge
among the masses was encouraged.
In America the greatest- , reason
of her success could be traced to the re
dnement and culture of the people. lie
further argued that an educational de
.partment should be attached to , the na
tional government; - . lgnorance is dan
gerous to the State, and Should be done
away with if at all possible.
The speaker concluded by; expressing
feai that the Republic Was in greater
_peril from 'a large portion of its popula
' don being devoid of that degree of intel
ligence necessary to make good citizens,
than frbm any other danger, and urgently,
appealed to the friends of education and
patriots everywhere - tb make strenucura
exertions to advance educational !iodides
throughout the country.
At the conclusion of the .able address
the Philharmonic Society sung ""Old Hun= .

and that he frequently approached him
on the stbject and tried to inducarldm to
absent himself. That Bell came -to see
him, and on one occasion when he met
him on an alley near Fifth street Bell
.asked him “What 'dirt' he was going to
do on him;" that a man who was with
Bell•at the time menaced him with oaths
and threatened and blackguarded him.
On cross-examination he stated that
Fire Marshal Murphy had requested him
to go and see Bell and get money from
him.
Ward Nicholson, sworn---In October,.
' , 68, was in the livery business on Third •
street; don't know Duffy; Mr. Bell was ,
there very o ft en; bought a horse from
Bell and, t sever times he came for

Fire Marshal Murphy was readied and
testified to hating made an examination
'of the building after the firer anti - found,
tt trunk with•kindlin wood - and grease'
in it; fire was slightp. no, serious damage
done.
Alter the examination of. several other
witnesses, whose testimony use corrob
orative or what we have published, the
prosecution closed the ease.
It. M. GibsOri, Esq., opened the case
for the defense. He said that it had
probably struck the jury that they were
trying a strange case, and before it was
concluded it would pow stronger. He
said that it must strike the jury that
Duffey. was a very bad man,
and, in his
way, an able man. Were , It not for his
testimony the Commonwealth's case
' would have no foundation, and there
could be tie Conviction. HO claimed that
it. *Mild be fohotvh that the charges
against the defendant were utterly
groundless; the defenoe expected to es
tablish the fact by reliable witnesses.
Witnesses were then called as follows:
John Watt, sworn—Have worked for
Mr. Hell, at his trunk store, for the past
five ly ears; becambacquainted with Duffy
in 1862; he commenced to work in Bente
snap in 1863; he went away and come
back in June last; Graham, came there
on the third of October last; he boarded
in Allegheny; he was hired by Gillespie;
Bell was away at the time: he became
acquainted with Pront in .May; Mr. Bell
was absent In Ohio when Graham came
there; he had been gone about a week;
Graham worked in third. story;
Duffey and a number - of - 'others
worked in ..,the next - story;.Duffey
boarded with me; . before: •the- lire
the key to the' back door waslost• or
was taken from me, and I aftezwards—
after, the fire—found the key in some
rubbish from the bench where Dnffy had
been working; told Bell I would not
haie Duffy about, as he had said "you
offered him ;250 to fire the shop;" 801 l
said, "Did be soy that? go up and gee
Mon" Bell I and went into
the office; Daffy 'asked me if I bad said
that he had told other parties that Bell
hadgiven him $240, and said, with an
oath, that if f had . said so I was 'a liar;
Bell told him to pack up his things and
leave; BelFcame down immediately be
hind me; Duffy came down in about half
an hour or so; he looked as if he had been
crying; he left. Duffy testtfted at the
hearing before the Mayor that he was
not in the city when the alarm was
sounded. I left Prout -as the boarding'
house at a quarter pain seven o'clock on
the evening of the tiro. -•
On cross-examination nothing new was
elicited. Witness said that he and Dotty
were not on 'very bad terms; Duffy hit
him alongaide the jaw one night. .
Thomas Gillespie,' sworn—Was book
keepek at tho store at the time of the fire;
on Monday after- the fire Duffy came in
mad Mr. Bell told him to leave; that he
did not scant stick a man about his prem
'hies; Duffy asked me to giVe him a dollar,
saying in a pitiful manner that he had no
money; I did not give him any money,
as there was-none due him; I went back
to the store on the evening of the fire, tit
about half-past six o'clock, to meet Mr.i• •
Wilson on a business matter; the gas was
lighted; Ilemained until's - seven o'clookf'
Mr. Wilson.did not come;.:turneil off 'the
gas and left; I think Daffy said at the

`Aitken our seat we began tosurvey the sit
• uatieb, and looking barer° and behind us,
'We saw a large number of very respecta- .
tie looking ladies, whose countenanc es
were radient with 'delight, poring over •
sheets somewhat more diminutive in size
. ,
than the GAZETTE. Oar curiosity was
excited. We wondered if some. enter
prising individual . had commenced the
publication of a new'paper. We became
still more curious as a quite fashionable
lady, very near where we , were seated,
now cast her eye upon the paper sbe held.
in her hand;%nd 'nen surveyed% iatgo
number of . ..plakages which;lay btidde
lier, and carefnlly scrutinized every line
on the paper ' lied' seemed to "cheek eff"
every parcel. At last, acoosting a lady
who sat immediately before her, she ex
claimed with evident delight, "Oh! for ,
any. sake Mrs. -- do look here! . See, I
purchased that pile of goods, and there,"
pointing to the figure, " is ' all they
cost 11 I have ' not, since e war, bought
so many - fine goods for so little
money! !!" . "Where," d the lady ac
costedi "did yoirparchas them?" ;:,"At.
is '
Barker's grand opening, .on .Meriter
street," was , She reply. "I• have been
there too "c said , the other lady.
"Here is all the &money I expended,
' and yet I could not bring . the
"goods into the, Passenger coach. The
tpackages /are so- large. I had-lo leave
hem in the baggage car".. The mystery.
was now solved and our: curiosity grafi
fled; tor; on casting our eyes in the di
rection where the ladies were congrstu-
latinkbadh other so , enthtudasti.4l4, we'
saw that the paperewhich they had been_
reading so intently were headed,, Bought ,
of J. W. Barker it C0.,,59 Market street.
Judging f from the, joyhil expression of
the countenances of the other ladies who
were reading similard,ocumenta, we felt
convinced that they were not' sorry , that •
they hail also attended the great sale of
spring dry goods, now In. successful_pro.
gress at Messrs. Barker it Co's, on Mart.
ket street. But we must confess that' we
were somewhat sold, as from the num
ber• of papers that were being read we at
first came to the conclusion that . a new'

bitions but reckless individual. ' ' '
