EDITOR OF TIISiJOCRNAL
Believing that the Teachers' Institute) '
of this county is an. importarit auxibuy
to the cause of education, and that the
session held at Coudersport the past week
deserves more than a passing notice, I
send you this for publication.
The session was not as numerously
tended by the teachers of the county ps
it Should have been ; but those in attend
ance- appeared to be
,earnesr laborers in
their profession ; and' those who were ab
sent have, lost—what no teacher should
permit to be lost—a favorable opportunity
for improvement. ,
The exercises consisted of drills in the
various branches usually, taught in our
common schools,
discussions on , the - best
methods of teaching, school government,
, with evening lectures upon- pa
- viola topics. This is just what teachers
need.. They cannot be too familiar with
the necessary branches and the best
method of teaching them. I was some
what disappointed to find so few of the
dititeas of Coudersport in attendance;
Itbe'press--the almost inevitable press—
nal not represented except perhaps indi
reedy by your hun.,ble servant, the scribe.
Rev. Mr. Roberts acd wife, and a J.
Olmsted, Esq., were the only visitors
from the Borough. Was it indifference
to the cause of education, or what was
the reason that :no others came to cheer
and encourage with their presence and
participation ,those who are laboring in
the most laudable of all causes—the ed.'
nation of the youth of our land ! lam
not.willing to believe that either indiffer
ence, or want of a proper appreciation of
the:importance of the object, kept them
tway. I chronicle the fact and leave it
there: 'olibeleotures I only beard the

understood its force then he employed
the following simile : "To send my -son
