Teachers Institute.

Teachers Of Asht0batya County:
| An Institute is to be held at the Court House
in Jefferson, to commence on Monday, Sept.
SOth, and to continue one week, tie last day to
be principally devoted to the examination of
applicants for certificates. The leading teach
ers Of the county haye long felt that the grade
of teachers in most of our COMMON schoUlc, is
too low to meet the demands of the age. While
wonderful developments are being made in sci
ence and art, on every hand, and while there
should be a marked improvement in every. de-
partment of knowledge, the standard Of quail
fications for teachers, seems to he on tile retro
grade, although there are some praiseworthy
exceptions.
Teachers, the world moves, and you must
move with it. You must progress from the
point where you can barely reach the public
funds, to where you can do the public benefit,
and yourselves an honor by your services.
The permanence of our government, and the
moral and physical well being of every mem
Der of society, depend to so vast an extent up
on the culture which our youths are to receive
at your hands, It becomes your imperative duty
to take advantage of the resources lying with
inyour reach, and to mako yourselves thorough
ly acquainted with the principles you are to
teach, and with the best methods of imparting
instruction.
Teachers Institutes in other counties have
been well attended, and leading educators eve
rywhere pronounce them a success. You are
respectfully invited to be present, and to be-
come members of our association. Every eff
fort will be made to have thorough review of
the leading principles you are to teach, and va
rious questionsdrespecting the theory and prac-
tice of teaching will be discussed, and lecture
upon some interesting topic will be delivered
each evening.
By order OF Executive Committee.
E. c. WADE, Secy of Association.
THE HARD-FIsrED DEMOCRACY gathered in
their strength at the meeting on Thursday
The meeting was held in Clarendon Hall, which
was far from being filled. But one of their
speakers was present, and as we learn from
them present, the suhject-matter of discussion
was the Niger and taxation, whether upon
whiskey, or not, we did not learn. Probably
Judge Thurman exhausted that point.

ton
ReaoJUcd, That the Democracy of Ashta-
bula county, adhering to the time -honored
principles OF their party, view with sorrow the
wholesale plunder and unblushing boldncss,
with which the Constitution is assaled by its
defamers, and laying aside all matter of minor
differences. will strike hands in q common
cause, to the end that the Government may
be wrested from the hands of designing men,
whose Vaccinations only tend to feed and re-
plerish the now weighiy Golfers of a bonded
aristocracy, and against .he best interests of
several millions Of taxpayers all over our
broad land.
Re8olycd, That we affirm and adopt the ac-
ton of the last Democratic State Convention
held at Columbus, and pledge to the ticket
there and then nominated, as well as the one
this day nominated, our hearty, jealous and un-
divided support.

ton to sound principles of the Hon. Rufus p

ty, and desiring to have the bonds of our ear
ly attachment renewed, do tender lin an inv
| tation TO address Us at his earliest practicable
convenience.

yention be published in the county papers,
