LtCTl'RK. We had the pleasure of lis
tening to a very interesting lecture, by
Kev. A. M. Whetstone, on Friday even
iiig last. llev. Whetstone recently made
an extensive trip through the Iiocky
mountains, aud. at the request ot lus con
greealion, he lectured on what he had
seen there. From his description the trip
was well worth the time aud money that
it cost. Many of the sights he descrilied
were little less than marvelous, and made
us quite long to be possessed ot ducats
enough to go and sec for ourselves. The
lecture was listened to attentively by a
large audience composed of the elite ot the
village. 1 he time w as too short tor the ltev
erned. gentleman to describe more than
hall he saw, and it is to be hoped that at
some future time he will give us the rest
ol it. He closed hts leclure by advising
his audience to economize at the table, in
the wardrobe, every aud all places, except
their newspniicr s and preacher s suuscrip
lion list, in order to save mouey enough to
make the tup.

A Tornado is Mipdi.ecrkek Tows-
einr. One of the most terrific storms
ever witnessed in this section passed
throuch apart of Middlecrcek township
yesterday. The citizens along the route
have many limes ban nerce thunder storms
to break in on them, but they now have a
better kleaot a tornado than they could
ever get by reading ot them passing
through and demolishing towns on the
western plains.
Just how far west the tornado original
ed we arc not able to say, bnt the first ef
fects ot it are seen at Jacob llenrj ' saw
milL From there it passed towards the
south-east, up through woodland, tearing
nearly all the timber in Its path, w hich
varied Irom thirty to lorty rods in w idth.
At the summit of the hill it struck the
lurm of Smith B. King. Here it was first
seen by Mr. King's neighbors, and it came
thundering, and rolling, aud roarijg,
aud sweeping the very earth loose,
twisting every tree off in its path, and
w hirling the to high toward tbe low an
gry clouds that were darting here and
there, the air darkened by splinters, limbs
and leaves; it waa enough to make the
strongest nerve tremble. It passed over
Mr. King's buildings, trariug the roof off
ol his spring house, making several large
holes in the barn roof, and completely de
molishing his sugar-house. The princi
al part of his fruit fees were standing
near the bouse and they were all destroy
ed. Pnly one edge of the storm, touched
the barn, but bis house stood directly in
the centre of its path. Alter looking at
the destruction around the house it seems
almost miraculous that it escaped.
Leaving King's farm it passed over the
farms of John Barron, Jacob Baker, and
Samuel Dickey, tearing down nearly every
tree aud fence in its path. Fortunately no
other buildings lay in its course. Those
w ho saw il iabs over Laurel Hill creek say
it lifted almost the enlire body ot tbe wa
ter op and whirled it around several limes
belore letting it drop. Mr. Baker's new
woolen ladory narrowly escaped. Nearly
one huudrcd pounds of wool which he had
It iug loose in tbe old factory was snatch
ed up and scattered to tbe four winds.
Belore tbe tornado got through Mr. Dick
ey's tarm it had spent alt its fury, and
passed ou over the. hill and surprised the
citizens of New Lixingtoa in the shape of
a shower of green things, leaves and wool.
Notwithstanding tbe great damage done,
we are thaukful no lives were lost. Mr.
King was the rui exposed, bat
fortunately escaped with only a few bruis
es. He was in the field at work when he
saw the storm coming, and started home
but was caught when at the end of the
porch by the top of an apple tree 'and tbe
w ind whirled him to one side. He crept
under the cpriug bouse porch, and when
the roof was blown oil a part strac'i the
porch, and that ffigntcning him' he work
ed himself into the cellar.

It affords me pleasure in presenting my
! third rrnori. tnhs aLta to do tn with a (wl-
' ing that tho past year has been one
fraught with good cheer to the friend ol
education in thin munt v. A1ihnu
j ed with no striking innovations, i
"U niara-
its histo
ry is replete with satisfactory evidences of
improvement m every way. Boards of
directors were more careful in selecting
teachers, the attendant of pupiU was bet
ter than during any previous term, and
more interest was manilested in the cause
of popular education by directors and pa
trons than formerly.
BOUSES.
Commodious buildings are gradual
ly taking the place of old dilapidat
ed structures, which were in many cases
miserable hovels, that have been tolerated
until forbearance has ceased to be a virtue,
and directors apcar, in most instances, to
be anxious to supersede the worst of these
with better houses as fast as they can pru
dently take measures to do so. And. not
withstanding the financial depression
which paraiyzes almost every public enter
prise, ten new school houses were erected
during the year, viz: one in Allegheny,
one in Berlin, one in Concmaugh, one in
Elklick, one in Paint, one in Shade, one
in Somerset township, one in Southamp
ton, and one in Summit All are substan
tial frame buildings except the one at Ber
lin, which is a large two-story brick build-
: - i.i.j .i,u
ing, confining .our '"""""jwhicli Weighed forty-seven and one-halt
Eiklick and Milford have also been sup
plied with patent seats and desks, which
speaks loudly in favor of the enterprising
school boards of these districts. Fifteen
houses are totally unfit for use, aud some
of them have been so for years; but the di
rectors, we arc pleased to say, have, in a
measure at least, caught the spirit of im
provement, and before long they will be
replaced by new buildings, and many oth
ers, not well filled for school purposes,
will share the same happy fata.
TEACI1EUS.
Those who were employed in the schools
generally labored arduously in their no
ble calling. Strenuous efiorls were made
by a large proportion to render their
fchool-roouis attractive; but unfortunately
f r the schools, the frequent change of
teachers is still a formidable barrier iu tbe
w ay of perfect success. Tiiis should not
be so. When a teacher performs his duty
faithfully, his services should bo sought in
tbe same school for a numlicr of consecu
tive terms, as he will be the better prepar
ed to imparl knowledge 'o his pupils as
his acquaintance wub their tlmerent tem
peraments increases. Again, quite a num
ber of our most proficeut teachers leave
the county annually for no other reason
than simply that they can procure better
wages in other fields of hibor. It is the
master that makes the school, and it is
hoped that our school boards w ill make an
effort to retain our best teachers by com
couiensaling them more liberally for their
meritorious services.
SCHOOLS.
Two hundred aud twenty-eight schools
were in session during Ihe winter. Of this
number one hundred and niuely-seven
were taught by males and thirty-one by
females. Some of the higher branches
were taught in twelve schools, and the
German language in two. There are ten
gradtd schools in Hie county, a nuiuoe.r ot
w hich are all that could he expected ol
them, while a lew still lack in classifica
tion and accommodations; crowded into
small rooms poorly ventilated and equip
ped, they have become a public nuisance
which we deprecate, and hope taat tae
powers that be will take the necessary
steps in this matter before another term
opens. It is the primary schools to which
we refer, and as many children must ob
tain all their schooling in these, it is sin
cerely hoped that this iniiwrtunt m itler
wi.l be more closely looked alter than
heretofore. The school at Shanksvillc
should also be graded, ns it is impossible
for one teacher to give proper attention to
so large a number of pupils. One school
was ungraded during the year. 1 his w as
done by the directors of Wellersburg boi
ough, deciding to have all their pupils
taught by one teacher. The schools were
not all classified as thoroughly as desired,
but improvement is evident.
VISITATIONS.
It has always been my aim to visit ev
ery school in the county at least oucc.
The last session I visited ail once except
five, and two ol those were not ooen w hen
I was near them, and I could not reach
them again without traveling a long dis
tance, as they are in different parts ot the
county. Three I did not go to, as they
are in out-of the-way places, and the
weather was very inclement when I was
in the neighborhood, so I supposed I would
find but few, if any scholars in attend
ance. 1 weive were visited twice, and a
lew three times, making in all visits.
During my visitations I gave special atten
tion to the teachers' methods ot instruc
tion, mode ot government, neatness, con
dition of grounds, and gave instructions
whenever I thought necessary. In every
district directors accompanied me some
times the whole board. 1 bad the pleas
ure also ot meeting mmy patrons. Tbe
presence ot parents and directors gave en
couragement in this arduous work. There
were more visitations bj the parents dur-
ng tbe last term than ever belore. I he
directors in nearly all the districts aver
aged one visit each month, but the visits
were not regular except in a tew districts.
I trust that sucb visitations will even lie
more frequent in the future, as tbey al
ways result in good. Those districts have
the best schools, in every respect, '.hat
are most visited by directors and parents.
The District Superinteadency was adopt
ed in bnt two districts in the county. Can
not something le done to secure more lo
cal supervision 1 I referred to this matter
in my first report, hoping it would en
courage other school hoards to adopt the
same measures ; but I am sorry to say that
this, the most efficient plan ot school visi
tation ever adopted, has been neglected,
not, I am certain, because it doc. not sub
serve a most excellent purpose, but, per-
hsps.on tbe principle that no money should
be paid for the supervision of schools. It
is hoped that this part of the directors'
duty will receive more attention hence
forth.
INSTITUTES.
The County Institute convened at Som
erset, Monday, December 24, and ccntinu
ed iu session five days. A lively interest
was maai.cstcd during the entire session
by the friends of education, and especially
by the teachers, as a greater number assem
bled for the purpose ot conferring u;xn
the great question of common-school edu
cation than have ever met at any point in
the county hitherto. We know that the
Institute is becoming more ixmular each
year, and believe it fires the teachers with
renewed seal in their onerous work. In
structions were given and lectures deliv
ered by Prof. J. A. Brush, of Mt. Union
College. Ohio; Prof. Z. T. Rush, of Mt.
Fieaaant Institute, ft.; llev. N. U. Critcb-
fleld, and others. A large portion of the
work was assigned to tbe teachers, w bo,
we are proud to say, responded in almost
every instance with credit to themselves
and with profit to tbe institute. Local in
stitutes were in operation in several dis
tricts during tbe winter. I was present at
two of these; one at Berlin and one at
Sleyeradale. 1 hey were well-conducted.
and reflect credit upon their enterprising
teachers. At the examinations I urged
the teachers to attend the County Institute;
also requested the directors to allow them
at least a part ol ihe time, and expressed
it as my opinion that local institutes would
be potent auxiliaries in strengthening
public sentiment in favor of '.he common
schools. We take pleasure in saying that
tbese suggestions were at least partly re
ceived, and trust that still more good may
be done ia this way.
KXAU IKATIOXS.
Thirteen public examinations were lielJ
throughout the county it central locatiuu?,

one examination. These with a few ex

the Liriu ot Mr. C. C. Blough, of Cone-
maugh township, Somerset county, meas

a field of three acres, and nearly all ttc
oats was as tall as the samples sent r.s.
The variety is known as the "white rotk,"
and some two years ago Mr. Blough got a
package containing one pound from the
Secretary of the Highland Agricultural
Society here, to whom a small quantity
wa3 sent by the Agrtcultuial Department.
The first "year he raised twenty-three
pounds, which he replanted last year, and
Jitiu m

pounds to the bushel. Tiiis year he re
planted the cntiro yield, aud the harvest
will reach ubout two huudrcd bushels of
oats. Mr. Joseph J. Mishler cut the three
acres, and he is an. iocs to hear from
Cambria or Bedford on Ihe oala question.
