aa article urging tho Sa-rctary of tho
ISoarl of lUrcctora to make a m-mtlily

would embrace this ornortunitv to inquire
elusion, as to whieli is the best scholur
the oue that can learu the longest lesson
in the shortest time, and be an unruly
pupil the remaiuder of his time in school,
uive the teacher a vast amount of annoy-
anee, etc., cr me oue tuai 1.-1 a niuc more
dull iu compieheasiou, but diligi ut iu his .
1 stujies and obedient to tho rules, regula

class, yuicli is the best the one that is
' the inor-t advaue.J, or the oue that gets
! its lessons best fur recitation, or best iu
j attendance, etc.?
Messrs. Kiitors I presume the major-'
iiy of teachers would bo uiueh favored if
! some of the able contributors of tbe(7iro
i would git e some information ou the
above topics, so that teachers may be pre- -pared
to give correct and honest auswers
; to the Secretaries and County Superin-1
teudeuts when they, at an hour uulooked '
j fur, make their appearance in the school ,
room. Teachers may do great injustice to
' pupils by decidiug hastily, or, probably, !
' they may have had a wrong impression of
j the pa-sige relating to the best scholar,
class, or p i.irest scholar, class, etc. '-Let
i j istice prevail in the schoolroom." ONE.
g03iI)jnic! S. lioyer, Superintendent j
for Snyder couuty, speaks very encour-
agingly of the school prospect for that
! county, attributing much to the Teachers i
' Institutes. As tximples of the progress
of public attcution, be notices that last :
year only 40 teachers attended the public
examinations, and this year 121 teachers ,
attended. Last fall, 2 1 Directors atten-;
! ded, and this year 50 attended. Last i
year, only 27 citizens atteuded unoiiieia'.ly,
and this year I'll were in attendance.
These are "idgns," but "signs show which
way the wiud blows." Such acts as these
indicate a growing interest in tho right

i now be considered the fixed policy of the
' State. Children and teachers like to have
directors and parents visit them a little
! thing, but which inspires them with hope
I and laudable pride. Wo must have
i schools let them be good schools. We
j must tpcud money let it be veil spent.
I SSifWe lesrn by the l'ottsvilleurnri?.
j that the first case of DISCIPLINE under tho '
j School Law has taken place in that county,
j by which tho County Superintendent has j
been rjectcd from office, and Mr. Fields !
j appointed in his place. The one dismiss- j
j ed was a much belter party politician than
school instructor quarreled with the tea- i
j chors refused to co-operate satisfactorily j
i in Institutes was refractory and insubor-
! iliiiiitn to the I)enartment and altoze-
sijeriD, the scarcity of money which is so
essential iu education as well as in any ;
other good cause, we believe it will be ;
found substantial progress can be traced, ;
by those who survey the field with a clear
eye. .
Jigy-When it is reflected that tho ardu- j
ous duties of Secretary of a School Hoard
are gratuitous, no one should object to an
outlay from the District Treasury for I

progress, and declared that thc prreat
enterprise of Fawkes may be placed
side by side with the steam engine,
the steamboat, the locomotive. t!.i
cotton gin, and the telegraph. After
the speaking, rie IWis says :
'"The engine again moved forward,
when the plows tarn"d tip the tw
mul drift of Egypt, laying six f'urrow3
side-by-side with the most perfect
ease and in thc most workmanliko
manner. The consumption of fuel
and water was very moderate. That
the engine is a complete success thcrn
can be no doubt, and all that is now
wanting is to demonstrate that, ta
king the w hole expense into consid
