rented their pieces quite well, and
tlHr r;tisic was eatertaiuing.
After their entertainment was con
cluded Dr. Schaeffer whom the Col
onel had already indirectly introduc
ed. 5 introduced.
The subject that the Doctor chose
t6piik in, was, 'Tcstalozzi, the
founder of Popular Education." A
snn-psi9 of the lecture cannot ba
"-en in the nunce at hand. It was
"'C-rent from an v lecture delivered

':ri of other peowle. the Deoterj
patsed oTer the heads of ail other
nationalities, and located the founda
tion stones of popular education
where they belong, namely among
the tribes of tbe Germanic peonle.
His address was like the strong utter
ances of a Bismarck for the truth of
history, for Lis own Germanic rao, or
like tne incisive and exc;uii words of
a Skebelaff in favor of the eerm quali-
oi ms o-,rn ociaronic people.

Sheeder, and teachers G. L. Hower
and V. T. Rue.
WSDNEsnAT KTEMIXO SESSION,
was devoted to an address by Prof.
Duncan of the Mull in town Academy.
Subject, Primary Teaching, and
lecture by Prof. Heiges. Subject,
B&rriers Broken Down, and recita
tions, and music by CoL McFarland's
class of b. Orphans.
Prof. Duncan s address took high
ground for the primary teacher. He
did not say, but it doubtless may be
said for him that the teacher antrels
that he is looking for are seldom
found. They are scarcer, perhaps,
than the ideal congregation that Her
bert Spencer is looking for, and
wincii he had hoped had been devel
oped bv Christianity in America.
Prof. Heiges lecture on Barriers
Broken Down, was a strong deliver-
ence, beginning with the frozen gla
ciers in the region of the North Pole
and closing with a review of the
trade barriers that exist between Na
tions. His ideiis about the time of
the clos of the address required
eloe lit tent ion, for they were ex
pressed iu such language that
one cot used to following a speaker
through a speech would have no
trouble in concluding that the Pro
fessor was trying to advocate free
trade. He did not however so advo
cate. His address was followed by
recitations, and songs by Colonel
McFarlan's class. The entertain
ment was closed by a song by the
cUss, which so impressed Prof. Dan
can that he moved that the Institute
tender a vote of thanks to the Colon
el s class. X be vote was given by a
hearty, aye.

that the Academy bad not been
brought to the Institute to be put

Calisthenics of the Academy on a
brief visit to tbe Institute. Upon
the conclusion of the brief intro
ductory, the students quietly fil
ed into place in tbe bar space,
and thereunder the direction of Prof.
Duncan gave a Calisthenic exhibition
that was a source of delight to hun
dreds of spectators that never knew
that exercise for the body can be ta
ken in that way. Every motion of
the body or limb kept time to music
that was rendered on Institute organ
bv Mias Strayer, one of the Academy
students. A march around the room
bv the north and south aisles was
made, to quick step music rendered
on the organ by Miss Annie Uray
bill. one of the Academy students,
upon the conclusion of the inarch the
students broke ranks. It was a pleas
ant and ini-tructive entertainment
that will never be forgotten by the
50!) people that were present
The calisthenic exhibition was fol
lowed by the Institute choir sieging
a piece. After which the questions
were passed around. A writtea
question was handed to ex snptrin
teudent David Robison, asking ;
What has become of the Teachers'
Library Fund
The inquiry was in regard to a
fund that was raised during the Su
perintendency of Proi Loyd, deed.
It was a subscription fund, and the
object for which it was raided was to
found a Teachers Library in MifSin
town. where, when teachers come to
attend the Institute they may have
access to the books.
Prof. Robison, stated, that be re
ceived the fund from his predecessor
and held it in trust till his term of
office expi-ed, and then he passed it
over to his successor. Professor
Wellington Smith, the present effi
cient Superintendent was present,
and all eyes were turned to him for
an explanation. He arose and stated
that he had never received the fund.
Mr. Smith's statement again brought
Mr. Robison to the floor. He stated
Chat he did not caean Mr. Smith, for
he is not his immediate successor.

preference for Rome and Italv. and
