[Written foe Ilie Agitator.] THE BOOK OF “JEFF.” Now before this time, McClellan, who had been chief-captain of- the host of Abiahsin, bad been removed therefrom because be possessed not valor and wisdom .and understanding, like onto Jeff and his chief captain, Lee by name, and because many" believed he loved the cause pf Jeff better than that of Abraham. Now Abrnham cast in bis mind who should be. chief captain in bis stead.. And be said in. bis heart,-, “ there is one Ulysses, who ie sur oamed Grant, with whom dwelleth wisdom, and victory goejh before" him, and bis enemies flee from-beford] his face; let us even make him chief captain of the host." And the saying pleased his counselors and they all said “ amen 1“ And he was made chief captain. And he straightway took his departure for the city of Richmond to besiege it, he ami all hie host.— - And they passed through-many ol the fenced cities of Jeff bn their way thither. And the Jeffiles rose op against -them,-ana ought how they might destroy them. ■ And Ulysses des troyed many of their cities, and pot many men tq the, sword, (buwbeit he injured not their women and children,] and after many days they they came before the gates of Richmond. Then said Jeff unto bis chief captain Lee, "Our chief city is besieged by these ‘Yan kees,’ therefure pall tbqn forth all the males t f fifteen years and upwards to come up and de fend it, and say unto them that the men of .Abraham have come down upon us, to destroy us, aod to take from us our citics.and onr bondmen, and to, makeiw. .subservient unto them, and to leavers without honor, and with .oot a ultrae among -the. nations of : the Tearth, buf we all ail become a hissing, and a byword" among-all people, and in. every : land." And th.e'.edying pleased Lee; and be augmented his tbost to at very great army. Now, the two' arroiea were lying near to each other, and .duLannoy each, other for many days, and numbers.-fell .on both sides, and yet the ‘battie Waied hotter,; and in this wise remained they ’till, about the days uf peace. Now Abra-’- ihnin' had other armies in the west, and in the south, and in all of .the revolted provinces, and they were commanded by one William, also icalled Sherman, .of whom wp shall.speak here after.. t rT .. chapter stir, i Jeff conspiretb against Abraham. ; And ifcamelo piss.thaf the counselors of Jeff ‘ chore' forth, and said unto him ; “Oh jeff f master nnd sovereign, what will thou that we should do for thee.” And he said onto them, “thatl may destroy the life of Abraham." Now therefore do thorn as 1 shall command thee, and ..we., will destroy, the life of Abraham ; and we can then do wkat seemeth good unto Us.” And the sayingpleased them,,, And they answered and said unto him, “.Ob Jeff; righteous and great, we will serve thee in whatsoever thou eommandest.’t - - ■ And.he said, go thou clandestinely into Can ada a province of the .'Queen o,f Britaoia, (who is friendlyjunto.us, but dare not help ua for fear pf Abraham,) and when there, write and Say unto Horace, (who's also called Greeley, of the metropolis of the province'called New York, who writelb tidings unto the people, who is also a friend unto Abraham, and influential) after, this wise. “Lo 1 we are for peace 1” and cause thou Horace to respond urfto thee, apd to persugde." Abraham to recpfve thee into bis presence, either in his own house, or in bis council chamber, and there unsheath thy dag ger and slay him, and flee thou unto me, and I yrill protect thee -from tbe wrath of his people.” ‘"And Tits.sayings pleksed the conspirators and they cried with one voice, “oh Jeff, live forever ! we will straightway do as thou iast bidden,” _ And they took their departure! And in due time they wrote onto Horace, saying, “we aye for peace I come thou to us that we may confer with thee open that desi rable subject.”. - Now Horace was benevolent, philanthropic, and. compassionate. And it-grieved him sore that war must prevail amid these, his brethren in the land. But wisdom, like unto the wia ; dom of •Lincoln, was not, at all tiroes, with : him. And Horace met them and said,-’ “ what i wiliest thou 1" and they answered, " that thou ■ importune Abraham, to. receive ns into his •(presence that we may sue for peace.” And he ?sent their sayings .unto-Abraham and besought him to receive them-ijy,.; ■ But Abraham, with whom dwelleth wisdom, BY J4.MEB O. CLABS. CHAPTER XII, said unto.lloruce, ‘‘lf they bring written over tures from Jeff, whom they sarve, then will I treat with them, and if not, then must they go their wny.” Then was Horace displeased with Abraham, bat forsook him not; bat.continued to give tidings unto the people, and to duly herald and approve the acts of Abraham. 1 Mbeta Melgrote the Scribe. Educational, TIOGA COUNTS’ TEACHERS' INSTX tote, The sixteenth session of the Tioga County -Institute was held at Mansfield commencing on the 7th. instant, and cominuing“’f6ur days. Tuesday,.7tb, 10 o'clock, A. M., convened in the Baptist Church, and in the* absence of the President, J. H. Bosard, Mr. B. B. Van Buaen was elected chairman. Messrs. V. A. Elliott, C. C. Peck?J. E .Rose, Misses Clara Clark, and L. B. Ames were appointed a committee to prepare a programme fur the different sessions of the Institute. Ad journed. Afternoon session. House called to order by the President, V. A. Elliott took up the subject of Mental Arithmetic. He gave his| method of teaching it—thought it always • advisable to have a regular system of instruction. No study so well calculated to discipline the reasoning faculties as this. iProf. F. A. Allen took up the subject of Geog raphy, compared the earth to a huge animal, possessing life, power and vitality. He gave some very interesting facts concerning Austra lia. .Adjourned. Evening session. Prof. Wbite, of the Normal Sboul, favored the Institute with a piece of music, after which Prof. Streit delivered a very excellent lecture, entitled “The Mission of life.” The object of all study is to fit us for life. It is imperatively necessary to know tbe nutate of the material,but more so,_the object for which we labor. Teachers are moulding and fashion ing .that, which will live throughout all eternity. They do not always Libor for the good of their pupils, but simply for a mere compensation, for their work. Lives of incalculable worth, are sacrificed for the bobble wealth. A real life is in itself, a reward 1 . The materials of a real life, are love and truth, and its love, God. Music by Prof. White. Adjourned. Wednesday, A. M. President Van Dnaen in the chair. It being necessary to elect a treas urer. in abscence of the treasurer elect. Miss. F. H. Miine was chosen. Miss. P. H. Maine and Mr. C. L. Peck were appointed critics for the day. Prof, Allen took np the subject of grammar. He gave bis method of teaching grammar to begioneru. He would use'books but very little. Ho would teach theca to .be independent. Ha thinks rules in grammar are arbitrary, and that we study grammar in the light of other men's viewing it. He would not use “ case” in grammar, but the subjective, possessive and nominative form, instead. Recess to get acquainted. Rev. N. L. Reynolds took np tbe subject of orthography. He conducted a very interesting and instructive class drill, and by this means gave his method of teaching orthography. Ad journed. Afternoon session. Mr. Elliott took np tbe subject of reading, and spoke of the various methods of teaching it. Prof. C. H r Terrill took up the snlijeat of arithmetic.- He thinks the teacher who can teach a to explain and what to leave out, in each article accomplishes' consid erable. He has the greatest trouble in im pressing upon the pupils that rules and an swers are unnecessary. He took, up fractions. There were some very clear and concise demon-, strntiuns by the teachers. Items were then collected and distributed. Adjourned. Eve'ding session. Music by Prof. "White.— “The UemsVSrj then answered which was the source of much merriment, fi -Prof. C. H. Terrill then delivered a very entertaining and instructive lecture. Subject Intelligence.” From early yonth, we are fold'of“ the importance of knowledge; A person will lose his knowledge, if he entirely ebons books. We do not folly understand the importance of intelligence ; every person can secure an education ; that is, every one can be come intelligent. Report of tbe critics. Adjourned. Thursday, A. M 0 Mr. B. B. Van Dusen in tbe Chair. Miss. Clara Clark and Mr. F. M. Spencer, wete appointed critics for the day. Prof. Allen suggested that the members of the Institute, and others who desired to take a part in the exercise, spell one hundred w olrds, and tbe pJEsah who missed the least to be rewarded by being presented with a copy of Webster* Unabridged Dictionary, by the mem bers of the Institute. "■* A motion to this effect was adopted. Prof. Allen then gave a brief lecture on theory of teaching. Every teacher must have some definite plan of working in his own mind. He must study how and what to teach. Recess of- ten minutes, prof. Allen then resumed the’ subject of teaching for 'a short time, after which the resolution— Resolved, that female teachers ought to re ceive the same compensation, as male teachers, was discussed. Mr. Herhet T. Ames favored the resolotion, because he believed woman • to be peculiarly adopted to small-children. He believed it to be her proper sphere, and that the Creator designed her to teach, and he deems it but an act of justice that she should receive equal compensation for equal labor. Mr. O. B. Bird opposed the resolution,-be cause be considers'women inferior td men, and hoLcapable to teach and govern a school. • Miss Clara Clark spoke in favor of the reso lution and defended her sex and sister teachers with ability and in a manner that reflected much credit upon herself. Mr. J.E. Rose says ‘that he thinks in some instances a woman can ."govern a school as well as a man, but not gen erally. ;jr~JVlIsB Raima A. Stone says . she. thinks the best way for the lady teachers is, to refuse to Advertisements will be charged $1 per square of 10 lines, one insertion, and $1.50 for three insertions Advertisements of loss than 10 lines considered as a square.

Thinks tnat “fear is the beginning of wisdom” and that pupils are not apt to fear a woman teacher. {And that it must be admitted that mala teacher* are most successful throughout the State. Miss L. B. Ames favored the resolution. As it was becoming quite late, it was moved the resolution be laid upon the table. Ad journed, Afternoon session. Rev.i Mr. Reynolds took np the subject of Mathematical Geography.— He explained the different motions of the earth, and many questions asked him by the teach ers;- - -- Prof. Streit talked for a short time on the practice of teaching. He thinks it the teach ers’ duty when they notice their pupils are be coming tired and restless to have some general exercise that would interest all. Prof. Allen jnow produced the one hundred words which had been selected by Eot. N. L. Reynolds and Mr. Elliot, giving any one pres ent an opportunity of spelling. After they had finished the spelling the papers were hand ed to Mr. Elliott to be looked over and return ed next day, and the prize awarded to the best speller. Adjourned. Evening session. Mr. Elliott in the chair.— Mr. Wm, Hooker from Lima N. T. favored the Institute with an excellent poem, entitled, “ The old school house,” which recalled to the mind of the teachers many happy reminiscen ces. Miss Adelaide Ladley the preceptress of the State Normal School favored the Institute with a splendid lecture, entitled, “Expression.” All classes of society find it difficult to ex press their thought. How strangely, the thoughts of men run in parallel channels, a unity; yet a vast, a great variety. As Mr. Allen was going to leave he was re quested to at ieaatgive us a short speech, which he did on Natural History which was very interesting and instructive. Adjourned. Friday, A. M. House called to order by the President. Moved and carried that Misa Clark and Mr. Spencer preserve their criticisms of yesterday, and make as many additions as they can during the day. Pmf, Vexrill resumed arithmetic and gave his method of teaching proportion. He called upon several teachers for their methods of teaching it. On motion, the following counsellors wen chosen: Chatham, Mias I. L. Van Husen; Cly mer, Wm. Bardic; Covington, George Doane; Farmington, Misa J. E. House ; Jackson, Miss E. A. Stone; Mainesbnrg, J.

H. Maine and B. Stratton for Vice Presidents; Miss Clara Clark for Recording Secretary, V. A. Elliott for' Corresponding Secretary, and Miss J. L. Van- Dosen for Treasurer. The report was unani mously adopted. Messrs, Peek, Spencer and Prof. A. A. Stone and Misses C. Clark and L. Bidgeway were ap pointed a committee to report resolutit ns ex pressing the feeling of the Institnte. Adjourn ed. Afternoon Session. Mr Elliott took up the subject of school exercises. Mr. Terrill then talked upon the method of conducting recitations, after which-Mr. Elliott proceeded to examine the words that were spelled Thursday, and announced that Mlh El|a P. Balaton from Rockville, Chester Co. Pa., had taken the prize. Adjourned. Friday Evening. 801 l call and responses by sentiments. Rev. Reynolds lectured for half an hour on ‘•moral trainingjn schools” in his earnest and feeling manner which is so interesting to the listener. Pof. C. A. Stone late from the Lewisburg University, delivered un able and highly ente° taining lecture on Education. The committee on resolutions reported as follows; Resolved, That our heartfelt thanks are due to the faculty of the State:,Normal School of Mansfield for their interest in the Institute; especially to Profs. Allen, Streit, Verrill and Miss Ladley for their able and instructive lec tures. Resolved, That our thanks are due to the trustees of the Baptist Church for the nee of their house so generously granted ns. Resolved, That in view of the great rise in wages in all departments of industry, and the increased cost of living, that it is the duty of every teacher to demand higher wages, and refuse to teach for . leas than will compare favorably with the compensation offered* to those engaged in employment, requiring like talent and preparation.
