called a morning or two since at the Office of
young lawyer, to induce him, as the
younger of the two expressed it, with
charming smile, ''To subscribe to a most
elegant work just published, to be got up
in elegant style, with Illustrations, &c. elm
deed, ladies'" said our friend, II cannot !;
| have no doubt of the excellence of your
work, but am not in want of anything of
that kind. In fact, | do not feel able at
present to subscribe for any new works of any
description, Tue partnership of which | am
a member has lately been SO imprudent as TO
issuea new work of their own, and the enor-
nous expense attending its issue, not to speak
of the illustrations, embellishments, and
ornamental adornings with which they have
seen fit to clothe the production-such I'M
wonted outlay has really, for the present-in
fact, crippled me-sorry-but fact-evcry
word of it."
"But-ah," interposed our enterprising
agentees, "perhaps we could procure you
some subscribers for your work; our terms
are quite reasonable. What do you call
your work, sir?''

gagement in the next block.

friends of Temperance convened at the
M. E. Church, in Lancaster, on Tuesday,
eve'g, Sept. 18th, for the purpose Of listen
ing..to an address by Rev. G. P. Hackney.
After the address, it was deemed best
to organize Temperance Society; where
upon Rev. G. p Hackney was called on
to preside, and William Il. Palmer appoin-
ted Secretary.
On motion, a committee, consisting of
S. Page, Vim. Alcorn and L. J. Wolley,
Esq, was appointed to report, at its next
meeting, constitution for the government
of the Society.
The meeting then adjourned to meet at
the same place, on Tuesday evening, Sept.

present to wage an active warfare against
the great destroyer, Intemperance, whose
ravages are so fearfuly increasing in our

every friend of virtue will be present next
Tuesday evening, prepared TO enter vigor-
oasly into the campaign.

NCRMAa SCHOOLS.
WM. FL. PALMER,
Secretary.

Much is written, and more said, in THU
progressive age, concerning the utility o
normal schools. Many regarding teach
ing as a profession, think special prepare
ton for the duties Of that profession a;
necessary as for any other. They hold
that teacher should thoroughly prepare
himself for his occupation as well as the
divine, do, tor, or lawyer.
This view is the correct one; but tina,
normal schools should be established fcl
the purpose of atfording teachers this spe
cial preparation, seems absurd. Normal
schools are intended to teach the best
method Of conveying instruction, the cor
rect manner Of governing school,in short,
to furnish person with that knowledge
which can only be learned by practice.
1t is true, diYines, doctors, and lawyers,
and all members of the learned profession,
often take regular college course, and af-
ter that spend two years in the schools de-
voted to their professions. But is it for
the purpose of learning the best manner
of prscticing, or only to obtain thorough
knowledge of the subject matter! Ger
tainly the latter. The students in law
schools may get up moot-courls and sham
suits, and the medical student may try his
skill in curing the diseases of some dumb
brutes; but such practice is of very little
benefit, and is not the great object of such
schools. The principal design is to give
the student a knowledge of the subject
matter of each profession, and if ever he
become great practitioner, it will be by
actual practice.
Teachers are the best prepared for their
profession in similar manner. They
must first become thoroughly acquainted
with the subject they are TO teach. For
this purpose they may take college
course, and then give special attention
TO the subjects which they intend to teach,
until they understand them in every par
ticular, but the best manner of teaching
can only be obtained by actual experience
in the school-room. No two schools can
be managed just alike. No theory will
apply to all schools. Any practical teach
er may be greatly benefited by visiting
the schools of Others. He can observe
the manner in which his fellow teachers
convey instruction, and if he notices any
new plan, he can try it in bis own school
If the new method appears TO give his pu-
pills clearer view of the subject than the
manner formerly employed he can adopt
it. If not, be can reject it.
1t Is OF no great advantage for practical
teachers to assemble and relate their ex-
perisnce and success in different modes of
teaching. All will get new ideas at each
and will obtain more knowledge
of the theory and practice of teaching than
they would By attending normal school
for long time.
