Prof J. M. Berkey, of Berlin, responded
on the part of the teachers, stating the pur
pose of the Institute, it having the effect of
bringing the teachers ot the county together.
He said that the puqvose of the Institute
was not t put forth stale platitudes, as the
value of eitui ation is of its own necessity
under a republican form of government
these were settled long ago. But that the
teachers met together for the purjMise of
Considering what the necessities of the times
demanded, in order to accomplish the full
purpose for which the school system was
established

A number of queries were then discussed
by the teachers.
The remainder of the forenoon was taken
up by Prof. J. Jay Miller, who presented a
method of Rapid Arithmetic as taught in
the Pittsburgh schools, illustrating the sys
tem with blackboard exercises.
Prof. L. B- Heiges, Principal ofthe Ship

The exercises were ojiened with music by
the Institute.
Miss Ella Kimmell followed with a class
drill in Literature, by a class of pupils from
the Somerset schools. The scholars exhib
ited much training and mental discipline
ou the part of their teacher, as none of them
failed in reciting what they had so well
committed from the different authors.
This being Director's day the mevting was
given into their hands, and Gen. W. ll.
koontz having been invited to address them,
delivered a telling speech on the Relation of
Pubiic Schools to Government. He said
that a proper discussion of the subject in
vol ves the consideration ol three things:
First, What constitutes a public school?
Second, What is the nature and character of
our government? Third, The relation be
tA'een these. He said that the common
school was the creature of legislative enact
ment, and was supported ami sustained by
may be taught gratis, and that the constitu
tion of 1X73 provided that the general assent,
b y shall provide for the establishment of
public sch. sils throughout the Common
wealth of Pennsylvania, and that the legis
lature shall appropriate at least one million
d 'llars each year for their support. It is
the duty of the pirent to educate the child.
As ihe family is the foundation ofthe State,
the education ofthe family is the foundation
of the greatness of the State.
In 1012 Martin Luther favored the adop
tion of common schools for the poor, and iu
counts'! ion with Melancl.ton he drew up a
system of public schools, and throughout
bis life said that it was a subject near and
dear to his heart The common schools
lake hold of the child and h ad him up, so
that when he comes to maturity he is capa
ble "f administering government ll' this
great government of ours. He chfsed In
stating that the common school was the pil
lar of til.- government, and that we could
only preserve our institutions by strength
ening and maintaining these institutions, so
that in tlie onward march oi civilization
universal education might go hand iu baud
with universal litierty.
I).rect..r David Husband discussed at
length the subject of a Uniform System of
Text Books in the Common Schools, and

Ciit BCli Dedicatiok. On Christmas day
the new Lutheran Church alKoxbury, this
.S.......V v.iMii,v.Mt t th worshin ofCnl
with appropriate cerenioiiies. ThU church j
is iu ihe Berlin charge, of which the Ilev. j
J. V. Pothiubergcris pastor, and is another '
evidence of that man s activity in the sr-1
vice of the Master. This is the third church j
Kev. Poffliuberger has seen erected during!
his ministry in this charge, covering a peri-
od of only eight years. The church at (
Shanksville. built several years ago. is a
tine structure, with stained glass windows,
well finished throughout, and could not be
built now for less than $10,000. St. Paul's,
the oue built near Pine Hill, is also of brick
well finished, and cost a little more than the
Suanksvilie church. St. Matthew's, the one
just detlicaled at Box bury, and of which we
are particularly writing, is a frame structure
Jox-iO feet iu size, with ceiling IS ieet high.
The interior is painted and white-coated.
The windows are teu feet high, of gothic
style, and have ornamental frosted glass.
The seats are made of ash back and ends,
capiied with cherry, and finished in varnish.
The chancel is enclosed by a neat cherry
railing, and the nicely designed pulpit is of
the same material. From the centre of the
ceiling depends a beautiful six-light bronze
reflector, which is said to give ample light
to every part ot the auditorium. Whilst no
elfori at elegance has been made, the bund
iiig throughout presents n heat and comfort
able uppearance.
The jMulorw ho originated and Med the
project to a successful termination, on con
sultation with some of the members, secured
a lot of ground on the edge of a beautiful
grove on the outskirts of the village. Some
delay was caused iu securing the material,
and the edifice was not finished unl.1
about a month ago. The building cost $1,
200, all but two hundred ot which was
paid before its dedication.
The dedication sermon was preached by
Kev. A. M. WheUstotie, Irom Hubakku 12)
' But the Lord is in His holy temple; let
all Ihe earth keep silence before Hun."
Tne discourse was liigniv appropriate, piac-

lo tlie congregation to raise the money at
I once, to which the audience responded by
liberal contributions, and not only the$2oO
but iu ad-.ilioii thereto some $) more for
I the slatting ol a Sunday school were raised
in a snort tune.
The dedicatory services proper were then
read by the psstor, Kev. Potlinberger, in a
clear and impressive manner, and the sing
ing of another hymn, with the benediction,
cioseu the cereuioides.
A large audit- ice was in attendance, and
while all seemed to be deeply impressed
with the solemnity of the occasion, a look
of proud sal inaction rested on the counte
nances of both pastor and people, sujwriii
duced no doubt, by the consciousness of
having a beautiful little house of worship,
every dollar of its cost being full)' paid.
The congregation organized wiih twenty
nine members, ami they are certainly de
serving of much praise for the good work
they Lave accomplished.

Tlie Christmas trveat the Lutheran church
011 Christmas eve, was a success.
The cantillation and treat at the M. E.
Church on Christmas afternoon, was an en
joyable affair. There was a sumptuous feast
of good things, and it was the beginning of
a protracted effort.
Isaac Smith, the man hurt at the blowing
up of Cotes' mill on the lDtli insU. is lying
very low at his home in Draketown.
The merry jingle of sleigh bells has not
yet (treeted our ears this season. Those who
made extensive preparations for sleighing,
feel much disappointed.

lived iu this tf wuship from bojh.Kj.1, and
was at the time of his death about CI years
old- Tlironjjliout the whole of h.s life he
was remarkably vigorous and healthy, uiuil
the spring of ISSi Oue Sabbath morning,
while preparing to go to church, he was
stricken with jaralyais. Since that time he
has been siieecbless, and unable to work.
He was a cabinet maker and farmer by oc-

DaVii viixe, Dec. 23, 1882. L.
The desire to perpetuate the lives and rec
ords of our forefathers, ourselves, what we
are and have accomplished in life, is one of
the noblest desires implanted in the human
bosom, and a distinguishing mark between
us and savage nations. As this is what the
j ilisU,ry of our county will accomplish, we
, ft SMfUred our jieople will heartily support
ltie project, for a failure in this most lauda
ble undertaking would seriously r.-Heel on
us in more ways than one. Let all give the
enterprise their supjiort, and thus liertcord
ed on the side of a progressive humanity.
Ucmember eduitation is what makes us n
of the greatest nations of the world, and
those families come to the front who are
most lilier.illy supplied with reading.
That old established remedy, Downs' El
ixir, still more than holds its own in the
public estimation, despite sharp and active
competition. It is a "home remedy," and
in this locality needs no words of praise from
us, so well and favorably known is it. It is
the andard remedy for coughs coldsundall
throat troubles, with irreat numbers of our
eople, and their continued use and tuiso
licitcd r.s-oniinentlation of it s(s-aks volumes
in its favor. Burlington, Yt., Free Vr.,
