THE PRESENT.
Look not forever forward, •
With anxious heart and eye,
But heed, with watchful earnestness
The moments as they fly.
He, who upheld thee in the past
Will leave thee not alone,
So, let the future rest in hope,
But make this hour thini ovn.
What Wend memory whiapep
Of wasted days aitd hours?
And, for the fruits that should be thine,
Brings only withered flow ers 7
'lhe moments, spent in vain regret
Might yield it nobler store t
The present is thy working time.
'rho past returns no morn.
Let neither memory nor hope,
With dreams thy soul beguile,
The present only has the power
To r make the future smile.
So work, for truth, for goodness,
Ere the passing hour be flown,
The past, the future, leave to God,
The present is thine own.

The Teachers Institute.
..illessrs. Shoemaker car Johnston,
GENTLEMEN :—The other day I heard a
speaker at a public meeting, contrasting
the moral and intellectual spirit of our good
Commonwealth, with those of her Eaftern
sisters. The comp rison bore hard on
Pennsylvania all over, and on Centre coun
ty in particular.
If the gentleman had been so fortunate
as to have attended a meeting held at Me
chanicsville, during Christmas week, his
language would have been as hopeful and.
glad as it was desponding and gloomy.
I refer to the meeting of an association
of teachers, organized under the name of
the Teachers Institute of Centre county.—
Something of interest and more of curiosi
ty, induced myself and some others to at
tend, but we remained and listened with
real admiration and delight.
A great variety of topics were discussed,
all relating to the business of the school
rooms. The teachers seemed to be in al
most a tumult of enthusiasm, while those
who witnessed their proceedings were
scarcely less excited; yet more harmony,
and pure unbroken cordiality of feeling
I have never witnessed in any assemblage.
I was told of some instances of members of
the Institute, who had not been on speaking
terms for years, laying aside all personal
feeling; and, on the ground of public good,
entering with as great unanimity upon the
duties and labors of the Institute as if bo
som friends. Such conduct is heroic, and,
in truth, the Teachers present, as a body,
seemed to win golden opinions from all who
witnessed their proceedings. Certainly the
flattering treatment they received from the
citizens and School Directors, of Howard
township, was most warmly and fittingly
bestowed. The proceedings of the Insti
tute aro to be published in pamphlet form,
and will no doubt be a document of great
interest to every one who cares for the ed
ucation of youth..
Since the Institute met, I have thought
much about the posi ion and public estima
tion of Teachers. They are underrated
greatly. Young men, of quick, generous,l
and ardent minds, are the ones who natu
rally engage in the calling, The discipline'
of the school-room renders thein
forbearing, discriminating, and 'ready to
unite upon truth. But their scattered, se
cluded position's, and their quiet baths of
study, make them modest and backward to
excess. This meeting, of the Institute, has
opened a new and brighter prospect, it has
given a taste of the sweets and profits of
intercourse between minds, : pf similar hab
its and interest,' the ennobling sense of be
ing engaged, and successfully, in a cause
of vital importance, the approbation of all
around, (appreciation of their labors is a
rare treat to teaehers,t these are aiming the
ft 4 d() ViltswttAti r4 r,
sources of enthusiasm that cannot soon die
out, but promise to extend until, (it is to
be hoped,) all the districts in the county
may be governed by it. Really, no better
advice could be given to the district or vil
lage, that would have a general stir crea
ted on the subject of Education, than to
apply at once to the Executive Committee,
D. 'clrindgate, Bellefonte, Chairman,)
and endeavor to secure au appointment of
the next annual session of the Institute
within its limits.
Several very interesting incidents occur
red during the session, and some of them
would be worth relating to your readers,
but they would exceed the limits of a sheet.
Very respectfully, OBSERVER.
Tell Your Wife
Yes, the only way is to tell your wife
just how you stand. Show her your bal
ance-sheet. Let her look over the items.
You think it will hurt her feelings. No,
it won't do any such thing. She has been
taught to believe that money was with you,
just as little boys think it is with their
fathers, terribly hard to reach, yet inex
haustible. Shc has had her suspicions al
ready. She has guessed you were not so
prosperous as you talked. But you have
so befogged your money affairs that she,
poor thing, knows nothing about them.—
Tell it right out to her that you are living
outside of your income. Tale her into
partnership, and I'll warrant you'll never
regret it. There may be a slight shower
at first, but that's natural. Let her see
your estimate, and when you conic again,
she will show you that you have put her
bills too high. True, she bad an eight
dollar bonnet last winter but "it is just as
goal us ever; a few shillings will provide
it with new strings, and refit it a little,—
the shape," she says, "is almost exactly
as they wear them now." And you will
be surprised to see how much less expen
sive she can make your own wardrobe.—
She will surprise you with a new vest—not
exactly unfamiliar some how, looking as if
in another shape you had seen it before,—
yet new as a vest, and soaaucly costing a
dollar where you had .411,5 1 414 five. Old
cravats will experience a resurrection in
her hand., cooling out so rejuvenated that
nobody but those that are let into the se
cret, would suspect that they are old
friends in new shapes. The gown you
were goin; to buy—out of what forgotten
chest she has gathered the matrials you
cannot imagine—but there it is, comforts. ,
ble and warm, and just the thing you wan
ted for the long winter evenings that are
coming on as fast as the almanac will let
them.
You wi.l find a wonderful change in her
tastes and appetites. Whereas, she al
ways fancied what was a little out of sea
son or cooling into market—now if beef is
dear, she thinks "boiled mutton is delight
ful,—as tender as chicken." If lamb
rises, and fish are plenty, she thinks "a
striped bass is so good, occasionally," and
always insists on having it Fridays.--
Whereas, before, site must hear all the
musical celebrities—now she is ' , out of all
patience" with these foreign singers. If
Jenny Lind were to return and sing some
of our own sweet airs, she'd like to hear
her; but she has had enough of Italian
Extravagances, all written on the leger
lines below or above, as if it were a sin to
tarry long on the common staff.
Before you have thought much about it
you will fine yourself spending most of
your evenings at home, and such evenings,
too ! so full of domestic enjoyment, and
fireside pleasures, that you will look with
wonder on the record of last year's expen
ses and marvel that you found time or re
lish for the costly entertainments that so
seriously tasked your port-monnaie.
My dear friend, if like Spain, your out
goes threaten to exceed your incomes, be.
sure and tell your wife of it. Not lu, a
tone and manner that will lead her to think
you don't want her to buy furs this winter,
but just as if you wanted a counsellor in the
day of your trouble. And if she does not
come up, heart and soul, and most success
fully to your relief, put me down for no
prophet, and her for no worthy specimen of
a Yankee Y . Times.
•CIPTIERING.—"How do you get on with
your Arithmetic and Catechism l" asked a
father of his little boy the other night.—
"How far have you got?" "I've cipher
ed through Addition, Susbstraction, Justi
kcation, Sanctification, and Adoption"' an
swered the little fellow.. It used to puzzle
us a good deal, we rofnerobsr, when a boy, to
"cipher out" the meaning of several of
those fast-named sums.—Knickerbocker.
WuAr MAKES A MAN ?—Tho longer I
live the inure certain I am that the great
difference between men, the great and
small, is energy, invincible determination,
an honest pupose once fixed, and them victo
ry. These qualities will do anything tbe4
can bo done in the world; and no talents, no
circumstances, no opportunity, will make a
two-legged creature a malt without it.

Lazy Boys.
A lazy boy makes a lazy man, just as
sure as a crooked twig makes a crooked
tree. Who ever yet saw a boy grow up iu
idleness that did not snake a shiftless vaga
bond when ho became a man, unless he had
a fortune left him to keep up appearances?
I The great mass of thieves, paupers and en
minals that fill our penitentiaries and alms
houses, have come up to what they are by
being brought up in idleness. Those who
constitute the business portion of the com
munity; those who Make our great and
useful men, were trained up in their bby.
hozd to be industrious.
When' a boy is old enough to begin to.
play in the street, then he is old enough to
be taught Low to work. Of course, we
would not deprive children of healthful,
playful exercise, or the time they should
spend in study, but teach them to work lit,
tle by little as a child is taught at school.
ILI this way he will acquire habits of indus.
try which will not forsake him when he
grows up.
Many persons who are poor, let their
children grow up to fourteen or sixteen
yearsef age, or till they can support them
no longer, before they put them to labor.
Such children, not having any idea of what
work is, and having acquired habits of idle•
ness, go forth to impose upon their employ
ers with laziness. There is a repulsiveness
in all labor set before them, and to get it
done, no matter how, is their only
They are ambitious at play, but doll at
work. The consequence is, they do not
stick to one thing but a short time; they
rove about the world, get into mischif, and
finally find their way to the prison or the
alms-house.
With the habit of idleness, vice may gee •
orally, if not invariably, be ound. Whore
the mind and hands arc not occupied in
I some useful employment, an evil genius
finds them enough to do. They are found
in the street till late in the evening, learn
ing the vulgar and profane habits of the
elder in vice. They may be secu hanging
around groceries, bar-rooms and stores,
where crowds gather; but they arc seldom
fotind engaged in study.
A lazy boy is not only a bad boy, but a•
disgrace to his parents,
for it is through
their neglect that he became thus. No
parents, however poor, in these times of
cheap books and newrpopers, noel let their
children grow up in idleness. If they can
not be kept at manual labor, let their minds
be kept at work, make them industrious
scholars, and they will be industrious at any
business they may .undertake in after life._
We know of many boys —young men—.
old enough to do business for themselves,
who cannot read, and much less write a de
cent letter. They, too, are lazy, for igno
rance and laziness arc twin-brothers. We
always feel sorry for such young men—
their habits are for life—the twig bent itr
childhood has grown a disterted tree, and
there is no remedy for it. They inuetpass
through life as they have lived—in laziness
and ignorance. Think of it, young Leader,
and take heed that your habits and charac
ter be not formed like theirs.--Palme.•

Learning to Spell.
Bad spelling is discreditable. Every
young man should be master of his native
tongue. lie that will not learn to spell
the language that is on his tongue and be
fore his eyes every hour, shows no, great
aptitude for the duties o f an intelligent,
observing man. Bad spelling therefore is
a discreditable indication. It indicates a
blundering man—a man that cannot see
with his ayes open. Accordingly, we have
known the application of more than one
young man, made with great display of
penmanship and parade of references, re
jected for his bad spelling .
Bad spelling is a very bad Indication,
lie who runs way read it. A bright schoOlz
boy, utterly incapable of appreciating your
stores of science, art and literature, can see
your bad spelling at a glance, and crow
over it. You will find it hard to inspre
that boy with any great respect for your
attainments. Bad spelling is therefore' di
very mortifying and inconvenient defect.—
We have known men, throlen into promi
nent positions,so ashamed of their deficien
cy in this respect, that they never vetntur
ed to send a letter till it had been revised
by a friend. This was, to say no more,
sufficiently inconvenient.
I say again, learn to spell. Keep your
oyes open whenjou read, and if any word
is spelt different frem your mode, ascertain
which is right. Keep your dictionary by
you; and in writing, whenever you have the
least misgiving about the spelling , of a word,
look it aut at once, and remeraber.it.
not let your laziness get the better of you.
