State Education Convention.

A State Convention of Teachers and friends of
the cause of Education is to be held in Lewistown
on the 26th inst, continuing three days. The
cause Of education is so interviewer with all our
interests, that all should see an interest in for
warding its progress. The old keystone is
awakening to a just appreciation of the vast inn
portance of the education of her youth, and a
brighter day is indeed dawning. Not that we
have been heretofore unmindful or regardless of
this great object, but there has not been so widely
diffused and general an interest manifested as is
now apparent. Great and good results may be
anticipated from this interchange of sentiment
practice in teaching, between teachers and Others
employed and engaged in furthering this great
cause.
