' COMMON SCHOOLS. Extracts from the Amami Report of the Saperio ; tenderit of Tioga Co. The work done by.-the superintend ent is indicated by the statistics we glean . from instruction of teachers, from visiting schools and from the an mat report of the directors. It is rath er a work of co-operation with director 4 • and teachers than the exereise of any authority. As the servant and friend of both, we, consider it our duty to go with the teacher into the school room, and iaiggest the best modes of teaching and governing according to the experi ence f the most successful teachers. As we would help and not embarass the teachers, we are quite sure iwe havt •learuPti as much from them as we has'. taught them. WP freely accord togood teachers a great diversity of modes.- OUr instructions cannot be carried out as successfully hy one teacher as anotli s •Of But when a teadlier settles down toi any one, mode without any efferts at improvement it is time for that teache to quit the profession. This indifferent dreamy life in the school room, is what sends the teachers like tramping jour neymen, to whip the cat from one school house to another. . Visitations and examinations have reqUired a ride of o‘:er one Jhousand mites during the nine months of our connection with the schools. About two-thirds of thi schools - have been visited. We hope' to see the rest of • the schools this winter in the northern and western districts of the -county.— Forty-four public examinations have been held, and about the same number . of private examinations, which will - hereafter be more than ever discour aged. The County Institute c lied twice during the year, was alt gether too thinly attended, the teachers not feel ing either able or obliged to attend. If ..thenioney now appropriated to paylec turerscould be appropriated to pay, in part, the expenses of teachers, they could be compelled to attend. SCHOLAR-S.—Delmar has the largest number of salads and scholarti of- •any district inthe County. Charleston comes next. Ail the reports are not yet in for . this year, blthe number of schol ars in all the pu lie schools of thereouns ty will not vary much from 9,800, hard-' ly reaching 10,000 district school schol ars in actual attendance. We estimate , the number of children in the Acade mies and private schools at 800, and those whogn to no schools and receive no book education at 700. This is an alarming amount of ignorance, which is educated vice, growing up in our county. Let us now look at the EXPENDITURES FOR OUR SCHOOLS.— We shall give only round numbers: Cost of Instruction $37,000 ; cost of building and repairing school houses $9,000. Fuel and contingences $6,,000, mal4ing a total of $52,000. Of this amdunt about $3,600 was received from the State appropriation, and the bal ance raised by taxation upon all the taxable property in the county. This has required'an average assessment by the school directors, of about nineteen mills per dollar valuation, for school and' building purposes. Taking the average attendance and we find it costs about 83 Centsper - month to educate each scholar In the district schools. This price though equal only to two dollars a term for private tuition (a smaller sum than is generally charged for the lowest grade in private schools) is for actual instruction given all the time _ charged, given alike to a-b-c-d-arians and in such higher branchers as His Itory, Algebra and Geometry, and low tas-it is, is yet full one r third higher than It would be if we could Secure a more Uniform attendance of the scholars; foi it costs just a. 9 much (30 educate ten a ft, does forty. This irregular attendance and dropping off toward the close of the term, Is a great evil in our schools And again, if the facts could all be ob tamed, we should find that, while tin property of this county is paying abou. $60,000 for educating nearly 10,000schol ars; it Costs the county, more than thi: to take care of the 700 children growing up without education. \ • • And again we love to think of the at most sublime spectacle of a people voi untarily imposing such a tax upon themselves for l 'the education of the, neighbors' children equally .withthet. own. The only thing lacking in thi part of the machinery is a unifori. State tax to keep all the Common Schools open at least four months.-- Then the rich and the poor districts in all part of the State would fare alike, and practically, Instead of theoretically, the property of the State would edu cate the children in the 'State. Tiog would not have to raise a 4.x of 19 mills to the dollar, while Bradford raises a tax of 12, Lancaster 8, and 13erks only Band Chester less than six, while thost wealthier counties with less than one third one -tax, can keep their school open nearly. twice as long, and pad twice as much wages to their teachers. (to. be continued.) . We have a record of a colloquy be tween a gentleman and his son, both lawyers, the father having retired easy circumstances to a cotibtry-plaef some ten miles away from the scene of his professional labors. One Sunday morning the young gentleman, home ward bound, met his father and mother _ on their way - to the church where they regularly attended. The father said : son, lam delighted, and so is your dear mother, that you are going to hear our good man preach. You will be highly pleased with him." While the conversation was going on, a tall friend of the son came up, and familiarly addressing him by his chris tian name, said, before the father : "I have got the bar open, so that we can have brandy-and-water whenever we want it." The Mend, observing the solemn countenance of the father, beat a hasty retreat. When he was gone, the father put up his hands and said : "My son, I could not have believed this of you! Look at your poor mother, and observe how she feels your:wicked ness." After a minute of dead silence, the father said : "Who Is that bad companion of yohrs ?" " Well, father, If I must tell you, be is my best silent, and the richest man in town." The old gentleman thereupon slapp ed hie son on the.shoulder and said : " Stick to him; my son ; stick to him, and never leave him!"

AFTER- twenty years experience in the man ufacture ol stoves, we became convinced, some six years' since, that ,a vast amount of money was being expended by tlo people,of this country, in baying cheap and wo thless Acres, a large portion of which was w 1 OA; and that t . true economy consisted in buyin the best stoves ' that could be made, notwithsta ding the price was higher. With this view o proceeded to i construct the American Cooking Stove, and spared ,no pains or expense to make : it the best and most perfect stove that could be made. And we have ,experimented with it, and carefully watched its operation for the last six years, and when an improvement sugeested itself, we have at once adopted it, and we have several of these improvements secured by letters patent. In this manner we do not hesitate to say, we have brought it to a higher state of perfection than has heretofore been attained in cooking stoves. The recent improvements in this stove has added largely to its convenience and effective ness. In all the varieties of stoves wo manu facture, we study uSofalness, durability, conve nience and economy in operation, rather than cheapness in price, and in so doing we are satis fied we study-Ole interest of those: purchasing our stoves.
