Common School Convention.

At the Convention Of County Superin-
tendants of Common Schools, held at
Harrisburg on the 10th inst, for consulta-
ton and interchange of opinion, as to the
best way Of carrying into effect the pro
visions Of the late school law, 50 that the
interests Of Common School education
might be promoted and advanced, commit
tees were appointed to make reports on
the following subjects l. Grades Of Tea
cher's Certificates; 3 Modes of Exanlin-
ing Teachers; 3. Grades Of Schools; T.
Visitation Of Schools; 5. Teachers Insti-
tutes; 6. Best mode Of interesting Direc-
tors; I. Best mode Of securing the coop
Grafton Of Parents s. Uniformity of
Books. Able ami interesting reports were
made on the several subjects just enumer-
ated, which engaged attention, and were
discussed during the session Of the Con
vention. As to Teachers Certificates,
three grades were adopted, the first grade
to be granted to those who may stand
thorough h examination in all the branches
named in the law, together with such
other branches as may be required by the
Directors; the second to those who are
only examined in those required by law
and the third to such as may only be pre-
pared to be examined in the elements Of
those branches-not as far advanced as
the others. The first two grades Of Ger
tifcates will bear the seal Of the Depart
ment Of Common Schools. The object
desired to be accomplished by making
these grades, was to excite az ambition
among teachers to prepare themselves
thoroughly for the duties Of their profess
ion.

them appropriate subject for comment.
Though they are not, by many, the first
steamers that have rayigatcd the canal,
their journey is one of the many inlica-
tions that point to the revolution coming
in the means of transportation by this
wonderful avenue.
In 1917, when Clinton saw the COM
mencement of his great work, the use Of
steam on the American rivers was but ten
years old, and was not large of its age.
The Paragon, the Richmond, the Car Of
Neptune turned their slow wheels in the
Hudson, and the passenger still hcsitated
between them and the sloop. Not even
Clinton connected the future of the Canal
with the labors of Fulton.
These days Of ours are to witness the
strong, steady, sure, speedy steam move
ment on the artificial as we'll as the natu-
raj river.
There will be, when the will of the pco-
pie is accomplished, an uninterrupted
channel of such boats as can with complete
ease navigate the Hudson from Buffalo to
NY. A seventy by seven canal gives abun-
dant room for steam navigation, and the
energy of our mechanics stimulated by the
demand, will so compress the engine into
small size, and, what is most desirable,
diminish its cost, that these large boats
will need none other than their own pow
or. A shovel full Of coal will outrun a
bushel of oats. There would be Joy in
the fabulous country Of which Swift wrote
if it were known that the delivcrancc Of
the horse from his bitter toll approaches.
To these new boats, steam propelled,
the Hudson River is but prolongation

likely to agise from a road running thro'
such fertile valleys. The following is an
extract from speech delivered by the
Hon. Samuel Calvin, at a meeting at the
Old Fort, held on the 9th ut. The ad-
vantages such Road would possess are
pointedly set forth by Mr.. G. Ho says:
i" And let NE here remark, more partic-
ularly for the information of our New
York and Cattawissa friends, that supple
ment was passed last winter, TO the char
Ter Of this Company, authorizing it to
change its terminus from Spruce Creek to
Tyrone City, and to extend its road to
Hollidaysburg, and there connect with the
State road now being constructed without
inclined planes, over the Allegheny noun
tain to Johnstown. This State road can,
and | presume will be finished early next
summer, or sooner; and it will be a much
better road over the mountain than the
Pennsylvania Central Its grades will be
about 20 feet less per mile on the eastern
side of mountain than those of the Central,
exceeding 75 feet to the mile, and
its curvatures less. And if the Pcnnsyl-
vania Central Company, actuated by a
narrow and selfish policy, should discrimi-
nate against your trade and travel, this
road can be easily, and at small cost, ex-
tended to Holiday a distance of
only about is miles, through large and
fine valley all the way, and very favorable
for the construction Of straight, level,
and cheap road. And then by extending
the State Road from Johnstown to Blairs-
vile, distance of about 80 miles, YOU
would connect with the North Western
Road, and have a direct railroad conuec-
ton between New York and Cleveland,
using any part of the Pennsylvania
Central"
The road from Cattawissa cast, is now
completed, and there is direct communica-
ion with Philadelphia, and soon will be
With New York. There is plenty of money

% build the Road to Tyrone, and once
built to that point, We think sufficient
,apital could be found in Blair county to
'ontinuc it to this place. This would not
'uly give us direct communication with
New York and Cleveland, on the compile
ion Of the North Western Road, but as
his place would be the western terminus
f the Lewisburg Road, it could not help
,ut build up our town, as well as all the
owns on the route We shall watch with
,rcat anxiety the actions Of those who are
moving in the Iaa;t-~-If.NiIaysLmy

sUThe pcof'o Of Philadelphia, who
have absented themselves from their won

in the city or gone into the country
at 4 short distance from their homes
They find either of these arrangements
more convenient, as We'll as cheaper, than
going to travel, or to fashionable watering
places. 1t is probable that the people of
other cities have adopted the same plan,
and We can not but regard it as good
