| TEACHERS INsTITuTE.-We desire TO call the at
tention of teachers TO this organization, and do
| under the hope that every member of that
sponsbe profession in our city may be induced to
| attend it's sessions. II we understand its tenden-
cies Alright, as we think we do, we can imagine
| but few reasons to exist why any teacher should
| refrain from participating in its exercises, and
prominent amongst these is the unworthy and
disreputabe fear that he may bctray his deficien-
cies. How is improvement ever 10 come but by
| the admission that need it, and by the counsels
| of those who instruct us
Among the particular objects of the institute is
the discussion of the modes of teaching and disci
plining. On Monday last company of about
| thirty teachers, male and female assembled, and
we're entertained by Mr.. Il. Richards, who deliv-
| cred an instructive address the subject of pho.
netics. At four o'clock this afternoon there will
| be meeting in the basement of the Fourth Pres
byterian church, Ninth street, when the purposes
| of the association will be explained by Mr.. o. c.
Wight; after which, Mr.. Richards will explain
what he considers TO be the best mode of teaching
| the alphabet. Remarks by other members will
probeby follow.
We appeal to the earnest friends of education
but especially the teachers of our popular schools
public and private, to attend, and to resolve to
manifest toward the members of the profession
generally, an open, frank and conhding demeanor.
This is the way in which true fraternal feeln e
may be induced, and Improvement in our schools
effected.
FIRE ALARMs.-On Sunday morning, at lo'clock,
a. m, the fremen called from their beds;
but there no other fire to occasion it than that
which ragged in the brains of the nebriates who
raised the cry. Last night the Franklin appnra-
tus was got out; but could not for the life Of
learn why. In the section of the city toward which
it taken by shouting and yelling crowd,
there never time of more perfect quiet and
camness. Some of the supernumeraries who ran
along the sidewalk occasionally shouted-"Now,
Blue Dick, where are you at?" We suppose they
all returned home again; but that just the
boys chose. There is other law for them.

TO the late absorbing topic" "Indeed," con-
ciuded the ex Governor, "upon consulting with
my friends, found they were rather OF opinion

his friends to 60 for General Scott and he has just

PHILADELPHIA, Dec 70, looU.
The w. s. Steamer .Sssq.ehdnna- Vewes sSeLSn
Steamer Grouadiess Rwnor Relative to Jenny
Lind, 8c.
The U. s. steam fngate Susquehanna, stole off
this morning at half past six o'clock, and is by this
time at sea, on her voyage to Norfolk. She is a
magnificent vessel, and will do credit to Philadel-
phia, in any quarter of the world she destined
visit. Our citizens are however, not al all pleased
at her running of half finished, on pretence of fear
ing Injury from The ice, which Commodore Stock
ton long since proved, with the Princeton, tobe but
imaginary.
The steamship Lbertador, built for the Venezue-
lean government, under the superintendence of
Ambrose IL. Thompson, Esq has so far progressed
towards completion that she is to make trial trip
to morrow. She has her armament on board, con-
sisDg OF two pivot guns on the bow and stern, and
eight carronades.
Quite sensation was occasioned here to-day by
a telegraphic despatch from Baltimore, stating that
fears existed of the wreck of the steamboat, on
board of which Jenny Lind, Mr. Barnum, and
the other arf,sfes in her suite, had embarked at
Wilmington, n. C, bound TO Charleston. 1t bears,
however, the impress of falsty, as the steamers
never go out when storm 10 appre ehended, and be-
sides, no could have reached Il Bitimore as the
southern telegraph has been out Of order since the
storm.
