III the Lock Haven Watchmam we find
the proceedings of the Teachers Institute
Of Leidy, Clinton County, and by the fol-
lowing extracts it will be seen that Potter
County teachers are numerous along Ket-
tie Greek in that County:
"The evening sessions were occupied
With lectures. Benjamin Wheaton, Esq,
made forcible address on Corporal Pun
shment, opposing it on the grounds of hu-
nanity, morality and success in school
government. President Marshall spoke
at length on the school system, and the
duty of teachers to improve themselves.
He most eloquently and effectively de-
molished every objection that sel6shness
could bring to bear against our Common
SchOos,-instilled new life and energy in-
to the friends of popular education, and
presented the teachers responsibilities, diff
fculues and rewards, in glowing colors.
That address will yet tell upon the schools
of Leidy. Supt. Berry lectured with
his tellurian. He also, during the Insti-
tute lecturcd on common schools, school
houses, apparatus, text books, &c. Prof
". A Crosby of Coudersport, Pa, de-
llvered an interesting lecture to students.
His address will appear at length in the
Pennsylvania School Journal. j. B. Wag-
lner, Esq, of Potter county; read an in
teresting paper on the moral obligations
Of the human family. This also, will be
sent to the School Journal for publication.
Mr.. G. W. Bottsford was elected Presi-
dent for the ensuing year, and on being
conducted to the chair, responded in a
neat and telling address, and was listen
cd to with marked attention. He had
the cause of common schools at heart, and
the Institute can congratulate itself in
having secured him as presiding officer.
"The lady teachers of the district, Miss
amanda CroWell and Miss Chloe Z. Cush-
Ing, toGk an active part in the drill exer-
clses of the Institute, served ON commit
tees,&e. Indeed, the Institute would have
lost much of its interest had not the pres
eHce and labors Of the ladies been given
to it."
