We learn that J. ANDREW WILT, Esq., of this borough, will be a candidate for District Attorney before the Republican Convention next fall. He would make a strong candidate and an excellent officer. Quite a discovery was mande by Col. ED. OVERTOR, Jr., of Towanda, the member of congress from the Bradford district in Penn sylvAnia, on Monday. This is his second term in congress, and during the first acquain tance with Senator BAYARD, of Delaward, they had some conversation about their fain lies, going back for a generation or so, but Colonel OVERTON did not give the subject, any further thought. On Monday he receiv ed a letter from the distinguished Delaware i statesman, in which the announcement was ( made that Colonel OVERTON'S grandmother and Senator BAYARD'S mother were sisters. 1 This brings the gentlemen into very close i relationship. It however does not extend to t political lines. -Elmira Free Press. JOHN D. RUMSEY, of Mansfield, lately organized a Lodge of Independent Patrons of Temperance, under tin; title of Highland I Lodge.

Upper Valley, and Lower Leona schools are especially good. , At the solicitation of many teacher's, the Superintendents notes, which were shortened | to mere mention of visitation, to not occupy j too much space, are made to contain addition | al matter, most of which occurred during vis | Rations. Mr. Roe was doing very commendable work i in testing and drilling pupils on the multi | plication table bv the following: II I 9I | 4 o x jf>}=? 3 I 6 8 I 7 ft 8 2 J 191 The numbers are thus arranged on the wall, and pupils are required to repeat or t write on the board the products of the num bers in the first column by either digit in the second. The plan is better than questioning; for it saves talking on the part of the toach i or, and enables blm to find out what particu lar combination the pupils fail on. The pu pil can then study this combination instead of rambling over what lie already knows. Reduce 1-4 to a decimal, and give reason of rule. The methods of explaining this rule ! in most artihmeties are objectionable, as the operation used in explaining is quite different from that ordinarily used and required by the rule. Analysis—Annexing two ciphers to the numerator multiples the fraction by 100; dividing now by 4. the quotent 25, is 100 times too large. Pointing off'as manv decimal places as ciphers annexed divides the quotent Jby 100. and corrects the error. The above conforms strictly to the wording of the rule, and to our practice. Teach pupils not to use ought for naught or zero. So teach as to prepare the large pupils of our schools to teach. Have such large pupils watch and loarn the methods used in different exercises of the school, and our schools will become training schools for preparing teachers. Court Proceedings.
