THE TKACUKHS INSTITUTE.
Next week will bo I'ottsvillo's most gala
ono of all tho year. The bright and happy
faces of a small army'of school inarms will
lighten upon homes, streets and halls, and
tho busy scenes of many a former winter
week will bo ro-enacted. l'ottsville always
heartily welcomes the teachers and this year
the town promises to outdo itself. Tho lec
ture and concert course for tho week is more
attractive than last year, or year before, and
this part of the programme to please as well
as to Instruct has already been well carried
out. County Superintendent Weiss' efforts to
do all that will tend to givo the teachers and
general public an enjoyable tlmo are being
appreciated as the Academy chart will sub
stantiate on inspection.
In addition to tho other attractions in store
for the teachers of the gentler sor, there is
ono which will be particularly enjoyable. It
is tho ball to lie given in their honor by Divl
sion No. 1, A. O. II., at Bobbins' Hall, on the
night of the 21st inst I happen to know tho
members of the Division who havo tho com

say with certainty that joy will not only be
nnconflned, but it will bo strutting around
tho large auditorium of tho big building with
both feet. There area number of pretty
teachers of Shenandoah who are sure to bo

tho honor of being1 tho ISelle. I hope your
town will carry off the prizo, but leave tha
lady who earns it here. Wo need more
beauty and grace In Pottsville and less gossip:
so wo do aud no mistake.

Toall appearance the difficulty between the
Pennsylvauia Eailroad Company and tho bor

road "near the Cambridge colliery has been
adiusted in a manner satisfactory all par
ties. The borough is particularly well satisfied,
in that by tho agreement it secures a removal
of tho abutment and tho railroad company
agrees to span tho road.
Pursuant to an arrangement mado at Potts
ville on Monday by Chief Burgess Smith,
Councilmeu Lamb and Stout, and A. W.
Schalck, Esq.., who has been retained as
counsel for the borough to succeed tho Into
John A. Nash, there was a meeting in town
yesterday of olllclals and counsel of both tho
company and the borough.
Tho meeting was held at the Pennsylvania
depot and at the bridgo. Those p'rescnt were

president, and Mr. Tripler, of Norristown,

In behalf of the borough the removal of
the abutment and a span of 23 feet across the
road and 13 feet above it was domanded.
After many measurements, considerable
figuring aud a consultation that oxtonded
over an hour and a half Mr. Crawford an

tho demand and it was its intention to sustain
harmonious relations with tho borough.
This announcement concluded the confer

concession will bo produced in writing to the
