Saturday.—This day was devoted to the
examination ef teachers, with a view to the 1
issuing iA certificates, and the grading of the ;

tins examination was conducted by Superin
tendent Watson, of Susquehanna county.— j
Mr. Rhodes was takeu quite ill on Thursday, j
and from that time has been confined to bis .
room.
It is worthy of remark that, at the begin- I
ning of tbe Institute, the rather meagre at
tendance on part of the public was not calcu- 1
Uted to inspire much interest in its proceed* ;
ing, or in its success as an institution. In !
the coarse of its pr gres, however, an inter '
est was developed that bids fair to be pro- ]
ductive of beneficial results. Ibe conspicu
ous ability, faithfulness, and untiring indus
try of Mr. B >yd in the performance of duties j
rendered doubly onerous by the illnesa of Mr. j
Rhodes, are worthy of all praise. Messrs. j
Armstrong and Watson, too, though their art
rival was not as early as circumstances ren- ®
tiered desirable, are entitled to the thanks of (
the public, ss well as of the Institute, for
a
their valuable assistance. j,

Everybody
>Vho has beek a achool-boy or girl, will
call to mind the vexation experienced on
some frosty morning, when, after having care
fully thawed out their old fashioned stone
iuk-stands they found that the inky and wa
tery particles bad become as completely di
rorcced, as men and women sometimes are
after a little coldness has occurred between
them ; and with not half the chance for a re
conciliation—fur the latter do sometimes
make upand kis. The ink never makes up nor
does anything else,amiable. Mr. G. W. Gray
is now manufacturing at this place, a fine
black ink or fluid, which is not effected by
freezing. This is the kind for the school
boys and girls, and indeed for everybody to '
use.
All orders for it, in any quantity, by mail
or otherwise, will be promptly attended to.

1 ; Dr. WISTAR'S BALSAM OF WILD
I CHERRY.
Where this article is known it is a work of super
i erogation to say one word in its favor, so wril is
j it established as an unfailing remedy for Coughs,
j Colds, Bronchitis, Croup, Whooping Cough, Asth
ma, diseases of the Throat, Chest and Lungs, as
. j well as that most dreaded of all diseases Consump
tion, which high medical authority has pronounced
to be an incurable disease- Those who have used
this remedy know its value ; those who have not,
have but to make a single trial to be satisfied that
of all others it is the remedy.

always those whose generative organs are in per

being melancholy, of nervousness, of palpitation of
J the heart. They are never afraid they cannot sue

These will not oifly ruin their constitutions, but also
those Ihey do business with or for.
How many men from badly cured diseases from
