.. " FRIDAY, DKO. 4th, 1874. :
" Institute met per adjournment.
Mr. Morcy opened the discussion on
Transitive verds. Ail verbs are either
transitive or intransitive. Explanation of
what a transitive verb is. A transitive
verb is transitive whether there is any
f'l'j vt or not, and they should be parsed as
eivh.
i
Prof. Baub continued the discuinn of
rranunar from where Mr. Morey left it.
He then spoke of prepositional antecedents.
A preposition always shows the. relation
between its object and the word modified
bv the prepositiuu and ita object.
If the verb preceding, expresses positive
action, the noun following is in the nuini
native case otherwise it i3 in the objective
cap?.
In parsing, the relative pronoun "what,''
Prof, differs from most grammarians. The
relative v ital lias a double construction and
is sometimes the object of two different
verbs, and is sometimes the obiect of one
verb and (he subject of another.
In parsing the word "mine," we should
sav it has the possessive form and may be
t-it her subject or object.
The next thuiir in order was some general
ffiicntious by teachers.
The committee on resolutions then made
th-nr report which was accepted.
(Vnmiittee's report :
Resolved, That District and County
Institutes are the best means of advancing
the cause of education.
Resolccd, That we would urge upon the
teachers in the county, the importance and
recesoify of establishing District Teachers'
InitUtes,
Resolved, That this year's Institute, with
all its faults and defects, was a decided
meecss, and of advantage to all the teachers
th:;t attended it,
Rejoiced., That inasmuch as we hold a
Teachers' Institute annually, and inasmuch
; we have no better place to meet in than
the Court House, which has become too
small f.T this as well as for other purposes,
it is our opoiuion, either, that the county
authorities should erect a Court House con
taining a room sufficiently large to accom
modate from five hundred to six hundevd
people or that the citizens of Stroudsburg
slit u'd erect a public hall sufficient for all
public purposes in a town of its size.
Resolccd, That as members of the Coun
ty Insitutc, we heartily endors the action
of the citizens of Stroiu'sburg, East Streuds
bur and vicinity in their efforts to have a
.Vt:iie Normal School established in this
county ; and we earnestly hope that im
i:i?il:..te steps will be taken to secure suf
ficient funds and erect the necessrry build
ings, so that the Institution may be
recognized by the state authorities, and the
j-e'iuol be opened at the earliest possible
Rctolccd, That we regret that not more
of the clergymen and other professional
mo:) in the town and county, were present
ar ttiis session of the Institute.
Rrsohrd, That we tender our thanks to
to the officers of the Institute, for the
manner in which thev discharged their
respective duties,
R-:nlctd. That we tender our thanks to
the citizens of Stroudsburg for the tokens
of kindness with which they were pleased
to f.vor us.
R':'Accd, That we tender our thanks to
t'c se ladies and gentlemen who took the
1 .id in favoring the Institute with vocal and
instrumental music.

Common Sense.
T .
u iias
been said in another form of cx-
j ressi on
that the slightest excess cf cx-
' uses over income is poverty, and the
l ightest excess of income over expenses is
wealth. The ability of practical farmers to
nias.ter this great problem of life is not so
much dependent upon what the' know oi
their business as on their faculty to apply
waut they know. Success in business is
cbie to administration. Capacity in
;. 1 ministration is due to that faculty,
power, or quality called common sense,
which everybody speaks well of and nobody
understands exactly. We infer its presence
or its absence from the results of a man's
life. Y'c venture upon a definition of the
invise we are usng not so much for the
purpose of making its meaning clear as for
the greater purpose of giving it a loftier
place in your thoughts. Common sense is
:t .degree, a hiiih decree in fine, the
highest degree of human wisdom applied
to practical things. It is not learning ; it
is not knowledge ; it is rather the faculty
of applying what we may know to what we
! .). Oi-her things being ejual, the practical
farmer who knows the most will do the
best ; but other things not being equal, a
man who excels in wisdom in administra
tion may surpass a man of greater learning,
or even greater knowledge of things. But
do not allow this suggestion to lead you to
place a low estimate upon learning, whether
general or professional ; culture of every
sort gives us capacity to appreciate wisdom,
au 1 opportunity also for its exercise. 1 :
Beware of tha Sink.
A distinguished medical authority warns
the drinkers'of water of wells near dwell
ings, to beware of the typhoid poison sure
to be found booner or later in these
reservoirs, if any of the house drainage can
percolate to them. The gelatinous matter
often found upon the stones of a well is
poison to the human system, causing by its
spores a fermentation of the blood, " with
the abnormal heat of fever. Wholesome,
untainted water is always free from color
and odor. To test it thoroughly, place in
it a few grains of lump sugar, and expos
it, stop.ered to sunlight, in a window. It",
even after an exj osure of eight or ten days
the water becomes turpid, be sure that it
has been contaminated by sewerage of some
kind. If it remains perfectly clear, it is
pure and sate.
It is not generally knowu that "corn" in
Kuglaiid means wheat. Over here it means
maiz and the uTerence is amazing.
