that attended an Old Folks Concerto given
10y the Bnrtoniaus on Wednesday evening
last. II was under the dircction-as the big

great effect or the Professor" we shall
attempt no description. Some idea Of his
originnlily.nnd faculty. TO nmuse may be OBJ
tanned in the fact that he kept the audience
by singing and telling storics--till half
past eleven o'clock. 1t is the duty Of his
townsmcn to make him lifc-mtmbcr of the
State Legislatures for if he would no: add
spice to the dry debates, We know Of no man
that would.
We were well cared for at the Barton 1Io-
tel, Of coWse-which house, by-thc-by, has
been remodcllcd and addcd-to, and is now a
first rate hotel. And what is perhaps Il little
strange, none of the party had any difficulty
with the conductor Of the train, nor any Of
the railroad oiliciols!--a circumstance rather
remarkable, We should judge, from certain
things we have seen for few weeks past in
paper printed south ofus!!

week to week, and attempt to interest Largo audi
cnces with mere hap-hnzard, unprcmcditated talk.
But, nevertheless, it will not require more time
for preparation than Teacher Of Common School
will have to devote to it. An the speeches in the
discussions should be short-not exceeding ten
minutes at most.
And as for sources of information, beyond that
their own experience affords, there is nothing bet
ter than file Of Old Newspapers, that will be
found slowed away in tho garret Of every house,
in even the remotest districts. Half an hours
search in such place. will bring to light variety
of articles the most interesting subjects that can
be suggested for such discussions, and when they
are found they should be studied untl the Teacher
is perfect master Of their thoughts. Then let him
mould them into his own language enlarge upon
them with his own views, and make them the sta
pie Of bis arguments. In this way he will be con-
santly adding to his own stock Of knowledge, and
be able at each meeting to present new and enter
tanning matter. 1t has been often remarked that
those who best able to use the thoughts of 9TH
ers, will have the most Of their own. No teacher
should be afraid That, by such course, he will be
losing his own originality lie WILL indeed, find
his originality strengthened by every such effort.
AS to the lectures, regard them as indispensable
to successful carrying out of such a plan. The
certainty of a lecture will relieve the Teachers
from the dread Of having to bear the entire weight
of responsibility, and there are but few Towns in
the State where there are not men enough who will
this part of the labor upon earnest solicit
alton. Clergyinen are usually very willing to con-
tribute their services in this direction and as they
make frequent exchanges on the Sabbath, by hold
ing the Associations on Saturday evenings, lec-
lures can be secured from those in ad joining Towns
without expense.
offer these observations in the hope that all
who read them will perceive that there is no in
superabe hindrance to Teachers Associations be-
ing kept up, with regularity and spirit, in every
Town in Vermont during the Winter months.

FROM PE.---STOPPAGE OF
SIGN AIS THROUGH THE CABLE.
QUEBEC, Sept. 2!

QUEBEC, Sept. 2l.
Tho new steam propeller North Briton,
from Liverpool reached this port this fore
noon. The stoppage of signals through the
Atlantic Cable was announced in the Eng
lish papers on the 9th inst, in the shape of
letter from the Secretary of the Company.
The letter states that ineligible signals
ceased to be received from New Foundland
at one o'clock on the morning Of the Sd,
fren some unknown cause. The Directors
Of the Company and corps of scientific and
practical electricians, were at Valentla, in
vestigating the matter with view if posi-
BILE to remedy the difficulty. The quotation
for shares Immediately became quite nomi-
nal, the price named being 40Oa5O0 pounds
without any operations. The London Tines
says "A similar difficulty was understood to
/ have occurred, temporarily, short time
since, and the hope is that the accident is
merely one OF those To which the cable must
be liable until necessary measures shall have
been completed for protecting that portion
near the shore. Some disagreements be-
tween the electricians and the board of Di-
reetors have latterly existed, and these, it
may be presumed, tend to embarrass the
general proceedings. Mr.. Whitehouse
writes to the Times that he believes the
injury to the Cable to be in the home end
which he had forescen and had ON one occa-
sion repaired.

FAITHFUL AND KIND.-Mr. Thomas Drew
of Worcester, was patting "a tj,vorite bull
few days ago, when the animal turned upon
him with great ferocity. One of his horns,
which fortunately had ball or button on
its point, struck Mr.. Drew on the thigh, and
raking upwards the abdomen, made large
and unpleasant confusion. Mr.. Drew was
next thrown PROSTATE on the floor, and the
bull was about to trample his victim to
death, when Mr.. DIS faithful companion and
ally, large Newfoundland dog, entered the
arena in his masters defence. The dog en-
gagged the bulls attention, and ran out Of
doors, closely pursued, giving his master an
opportunity to beat a retreat Mr.. Drew
