New YORK, June l.-Forcst fires have
again broken out in the mountains in
Delaware and Sullivan counties New
York, doing much damage. The village
of Bethel was surrounded by fire and
was only saved after hard fight. A
prominent and wealthy farmer named
McCorbin, of Delaware county, was sur
rounded by fire while fighting the flames
in his woods and burned to death, and
two other men were badly burned near
Manayunk Valley, Sullivan county.
The fire was accidentally started and in
"a few hours thousands of acres of timber
were DESTROYED. In the towns of Farms
burg and Momaking the conhagration
was so fierce that the families were
obliged to fly from their houses to save
their lives, leaving their household goods
and stock to be DESTROYED.

dance at school of all the children who
are entitled to al its privileges
The subject Of text books was first
taken up and discussed with much in
terest. Prof. Whitman, Superinten-
dent of Red Wing city schools, being
present and invited to speak, gave
some very valuable hints in relation to
the duties Of School Boards in this mat
ter. :s,"s .s~u... J, -. q. 1872.
An felt the need of some action that
would prevent the multiplying Of class
es, and increasing the expenses Of
schools, by constantly introducing new
books.
The Importance Of uniformity in
text books throughout the county was
urged with much force. 1t was finally
agreed that State uniformity established
by the authority of the legislature was
the thing most needed.
A committee cosistibg Of E. A. Sar-
gent, Q. Bunch and P. Berg, being ap-
pointed for the purpose of embodying
in a resolution the sentiments Of the
meeting on this subject presented the
following, which was adopted:
Reso1ued, that each District Board
IN the County, should prescribe the
text books to be Used in their several
schools, and the books used at present
be retained as far as practicable.
-. The remaining topics were each Of
them discussed and much information
of Importance to school officers brought
to light.
The meeting was success in every
respect bnt the number in attendance.
The failure in attendance may be at
tributed to two things, namely: lack Of
interest, and lack of pay for their SER
vices. Disctrict clerks who discharge
their duties faithfully should receive a
reasonable compensation.
