The reports that are in circulation are detrimental to the religton aid morals of the wnole countiy, iu that, the faith of the people in their teachers is shaken. The principle of religion and tnorality are not, indeed, in the least im paired by tie fall of any one man, or any ct of men. Tney are eternal. If Mr. Iteecher is not sound in his practice of fun damental dectnnea, the doctrines are not in the least ftifpnired. It is only Mr. Beecher who has beWnte imiairod. It is hoped that the trouble Is only one of those inci dental mis understandings that arise some time anion,; people, but have no real foun dation tor their existence. The unpleasant uncertainty that envelos the trouble should be speedily broken by an examina tion or investigation, and if these intelli gent people have misunderstood each other they should know it aud be reconciled, aud be placed agiiu properly before the public.

Among the best evi dences of the growth of the Common School System in our county is the dis position on tliK part of school directors In build better Louses lliau heietofure. Three good houses were built during the summer of 1873 one in Fayette, a frame structure, at a cost of about $1500; one in Fermanagh, and oue in Mi! lord, both brick, at a Cost of about $1800 each. These houses are of suf fietent dimension, well conatiucted, furnished with the patent (Jot hie desks, and sufficient blackhead surface. Each has a neat portico it? front. The one in Fermanagh was built for a new school, now known as the Cuba school. The locations are about as good as could be obtained, and the grounds only need to be neatly fenced and planted with tiee to make tbein very pleasant places. The Hoard of ilirectors deserve much credit for the hare they took and the taste displayed in the election of these houses. Three new bouses are now under contract, to be ready for the coibH-g terra. There are still about twenty -five that should give place to others. A large number need repair intr and reseating. Houses should be f.-. ...d C. ........... I .1 J . .

Th County Institute convened 111 the Court House at Mifil:titown, on Monday, November it4, 173. .The instructors and leetur ers present Were Prof. V. W. Wood ruff, Dr. T. J. Grtswold, Prof. David ilsoc, and C. J. Arms, Esq. A num ber of teachers took an active part. The wotk dotie was of a practical char acfif. Ninety Uve of the actual teach ers were piestnt : a few absented them selves upon various pretexts I must say for the teachers that they attended well. A majority of lite ard of di rectors gave their teachers ail the time ; only three gave no time. The average time given was three and a half dais. About one-third of the directors at-t.-uded. .Nine local Institutes were held. They were pretty well attended, and I believe givid resulted from ihfciu. 1 would be glad, were it ptuJetlt to do so, to name quite a number tit lilies and gentlemen who tcok a very active part 111 the exercises. Visitations. All of the schools, eScCpt eight, were visited twice, and some three tunes. Over two hundred visits were made, ranging iu length from one hour to half a day. I was accompanied in my visitations by forty eight directors, and met a go. -dry irjm ber of patioiit) although I did not fiuii many schools regularly Visited by either directors of pstrous. This important duty is somewhat neglected, yet it is not by any means etitirt'ly attributable to lack of interest in educational mat tors among the people. . I found a ntin. ber of teachers, and I wish the number embraced all in the county, - who de serve much praise for lie tasteful man Der in which they ad6ru their school rooms',- and for tb; care they took . of tba aobool property trader thefr charge. it is very pleasant for a school officer or patron upon entering a school room to find pictures, mottoes and wreaths tastefully arranged upon whitened walls, blinds to the windows, to see the furni ture cared for, the floor well swept, the stove well blackened, and a general air of neatn'ss prevailing. Such teachers are alwats successful ; and the love of order, uealocss and cleanliness they instil into the minds of the pupils uuder their instruction Is very valuable Terms a.ndSALaries The average length of the school term was live months, bailie districts are able to keep open lobgfer than five month? with out taiing Ihcililelyes very heavily. I would suggest to director of fach dis tricts the propriety of having in addi tion to the usual Inter term a summer term of two to four months, aud pay" higher salaries to good teachers. Mine districts could have summer terms of at leait eleven weeks at the present salaries paid, and some could raise the salaries aud still not be taxed as high a the limit of the law allows indeed, do both without being taxed over ten mills on the dollar for school purposes, thus affording the pupils of their dis tricts a chance to get a better educa tion, giving to teachers more emj loy uietit and better pay. encouraging tbeui tn remain longer at the businew, and to qualify themselves better for their worfc. The pleasanter months of the futliinnr season are a much hftter pe riod for children, especially small chil dren y to attend school ; such can uot attend regularly in the winter, aa) they have not the same chance when the schools are crowded ; they do not, nor c 1 neV receive the atti ntn.n they snouiu nave, i very respeciiuuy on. r Ibese supuestions to directors and pa trons with the hope that the day is not l.-ir distent whrn they will act upon them. 1 am glad to say Mifflintown did nobly last fall with respect to sal ary and term ; the average sala y paid at sinter was $1(1 'lb. wi.ii..t the win ter before it was tut $.14 48 The term was increased trom ix to eiirht months.
