ALBERT, of Wilkesßarre, has J been elected Principal of the Graded School of this borough for the ensuing year, in place of Prof. BURGAX, who we believe was not 1m applicant for re-election. Prof. A. is very highly recommended as a gentleman of line culture, large experience and great suc cess as a teacher. He will prove a valuable acquisition to the noble band of live, progres sive teachers of Bradford county. Prof. BURGAN'S administration during the pa-t three years has proven highly satisfacto ry and his work has been well done, earning for him the respect of the hoard and his fel- j low teachers, the commendation of parents and the respect and affection of pupils. We consider him one of the very best teachers in the country and hope he lias obtained a more lucrative position. We are sincerely sorry to part with the Professor and his excellent j wife.
