The Tioga Coanty Teachers in Session at the Court House. * MOITOAX FOBENOON. Tbs teachers of Tioga county met and registered with Commissioner L. O. Wiswell, whose genial manner proved qaite ra-assaring to the timid members of the pedagogical fraternity.- MOSTDAY AYTEBNOON. Prof. S. n . Albro showed the associa tion that from a course in practical arithmetic should be omitted, the men suration of trapezinms, trapezoids, oones, frnstmms and spheres, also cnbe root and its applications, partial pay ments and compound interest. In most of these omissions he was nnanimousiy endorsed by the association. Supt. P. M. Hull gave us some valna- ble instruction as to .t h e preparation necessary for teaching. Commissioner Wiswell was instructed by the association to see to it that the money appropriated] for libraries is not appropriated to any other use. The qnestioa was not discussed to any con siderable length, as Principal Marsh left the question with a very brief opening. Tuesday opened with the clerk of the weather on our side and all the omens propitions. After the opening exercises that morn ing, Dr. French addressed the teachers on the subject of drawing in schools. Showing the various drawbacks the teachers would meet in introducing this art in their schools, and showing the dif ference between drawing pictures and practical drawing. These addresses by Dr. French can scarcely help being a benefit t© any wide-awake teacher. After a short recess Prof. Albro gave an interesting and highly instructive talk on the mind and its properties. Another short recess and Dr. French gave a lesson in drawing, using the teachers as an infant class on which to experiment and by which to illustrate his method. After a gentle hint from the doctor, that the ladies would be obliged to re move their hats or take a back seal^,there appeared to be a general desire on the part of the ladies to secure back seats. I t is ever thus. Although the exercises were very in teresting, yet the noon hour, as always, brought a cheerful breaking np. TUESDAY AFTEENOON the question of omitting certain snbjeots from the course iu arithmetic came np and was warmly disscussed, after which the association xeaomended the omission of all subjects that are not eminently practical or of great value as disciplinary studies. In this connection we over heard a prominent educator say, “ We recommend this and then we will go home and do as we please, and teachers can put all the suggestions here made in to actual practice, but it is all intended to stimulate thought and lend ultimate ly to belter results.” We again listened with pleasure to Superintendent Hull on the subject of readinar, which in many of our schools is among the lost arts. Again Dr. French brought the ladks into line for a hat dnll. They are con stitutionally opposed to any thing of the nature of military tactics but* the hats came off with something like a show of submission to the inevitable. But the doctor doubtless finds, as many a man has found, that the average fair one is more tractable in the moss then the in- diridnal. WEDNESDAY FOBBNOON. . After the usual exercises of the morn ing Dr. French gave his drawing lesson, giving the cube, square and oblong as the basis of his lessons.After Dr.Frenoh, Prof. AJbro went on in his course of lectures on the mind. The placid peacefulness of the exer cises was somewhat broken iu upon whenln Dr. French’s last excercise in drawing he was obliged to repeat the request previously made to the ladies to remove their hats. If there is anything which grieves a woman, anything that will rnffle the sublime meekness of her temper, it is to be obliged to remove her hat in a pnblio plaoa, when she didn’t anticipate the possiblity of such a thing. The ladies were thus disturbed this forenoon and some of them exhibited an {obstinacy which was really quite startling in each naturally docile creatures. The state equilibrium was restored when the ladies who still ob jected left the court room. EVENING SESSIONS, Monday evening Dr. J. T. Qreenleat gave an interesting lecture on \Dreams which was humorous, witty and instruc tive. Tuesday evening Prof. Albro gave a lecture on \Norway which he graphi cally described and illustrate)^ by a series of stereoptioan views. Wednesday evening Dr. T. B. Stowell gave a lecture on “Brains,” which treat ed the brain from that of a chicken in the egg to the fully developed brain. This evening Prof. Peck will lecture on \Eoger Ascham” and onr readers are advised to attend. The continuation of the program will be published next week. mow mmm l a ib s . A FU R T H E R DISCUSSION iON THE IRISH QUESTION.

L ondon , A p ril 26.—In the houso of com mons yesterday ]Ur. Jam es L. Corew, mem ber for ISTorth K ildare, m o v ed th e second reading of the Irish c o u n ty governm ent bill, the principal o f which, he said, w a s to give to the people o f Ireland control o f strictly local a ffairs through councils directly elected by the people. Ml-. Gladstone, in, support- o f the-motion? said the g o v ernm ent h a d withdrawn its prom ises a n d declared that until Ireland should forego the natural aspirations of her people and w ithdraw h er c laim to the establishment of a central a u thority a t Dublin no- local gov ernm ent bill for Ireland would bs presented. A n y m an, therefore, w h o did n o t support this bill would becom e party to t h a t declara tion. , Mr. B a lfour said that everyone Imew that a-local g o v e m m e u t bill for Ireland was bad in proportion as the ex-officio elem ent was excluded from its provisions. P o litics in Ire land w ere entirely different from politics in Bngland. The p resent social warfare in Ire land could n o t continue, and when there should bo a n equality of conditions he would be one o f the first to execute w h a t w a s now desired by the people. Lord Randolph Churchill said fno govern m ent h od in 1886 pledged itself to extend to Ireland the sam e am o u n t o f local liberty en joyed in England. That pledge w a s the foundation of the U n ionist party, and the only platform ’ iipon which it could resist repeal o f the ITnion. If the governm ent relied m erely upon its executive powers, it were going to preach that the Irish m u st be looked upon a s in feriors, i t m ight hold th a t position for a tim e, but not for long. That wasn’t a suffi cient interpretation o f the governm ent’s pol icy. If Ireland had to w a il in the hands of the Dublin e x ecutive the Conservatives m ust take care that they did not exiwse them selves to a well directed indictm ent o f reaction, Mr. Chamberlain opposed the b ill in a brief speech. Upon a division the second reading of the bill was rejected by a vote of 283 to 195. GENERAL FOREIGN NEW S . C o n servative P a p e r s B e w a il t h e G o v ern m e n t 's Irish P o licy. L ondon , April 26.—^The “slogging” debates in parliam ent during the week have lent general interest to the proceedings and in spired the Liberals w ith fresh hopes that they have a t last found a w a y o f com p letely non plussing the Tory m a jority. This v iew is also entertained b y m a n y of the more con sistent conservative journals, notably The Standard and The S t Jam es Gazette, both of which acknowledge w ith expressions o f re gret that the m inisters have blundered in per m itting their policy to verify the charges made a g a inst i t by the opposition. The S t Jam es Gazette is particularly outspoken with reference to this point, and in the course of its article says: “W o are extrem ely sorry that the Kfa- tionals have been given as good a peg os the increased sentences given on appeal to the convicted Homo Rulers upon wffich. to hang their oratory.” R eferring to the county governm ent for Ireland bill, the article continues b y con dem ning the inconsistency of its rejection, and asks: “Can the g o v ernm ent prevent the G ladstonians from asserting that' this is fresh evidence o f the truth of their oft-repeated charge that Ireland does n o t g e t justice from the W estm inister parliam ent, ana is the strongest possible argum ent in favor of their demands f o r a separate legislative assembly in Dublin.” D a r ing yesterday’s debate in the house of commons Lord Randolph Churchill asserted th a t the Tories hod tim e a n d tim e a g a in pledged them selves t o grant a measure of local self- governm ent for Ireland, and he would there fore n o t v o te against it. Queen V ictoria w ill leave Berlin for Lon don to-day i f the ompei’or is no worse. Her m a jesty is said to have exoressed herself as highly g ratified e t h e r reception in Germany, and in view of the intense a n ti-English feeling prevailing in Berlin she certainly has reason to feel pleased a t the apparent cordiality o f her greeting. The Italian governm ent h a s decided to con centrate its n a v a l forces in the Mediterranean, and in pursuance o f this resolution has ordered the South Am erican squadron home prepara tory to disposing i t in the w a ters washing the shores o f I taly, France and Spain. Referring to this m o v e and its probable object, La Cocarde, the Paris o rgan o f Gen. Boulanger, declares that England m u st giyo w a y in E g y p t, and that, too, w ithout unnecessary delay. France, the paper farther declares, •will n ever surrender her rightful advantages In the M editerranean, though tho English and Italian fieets combine, as th e y are no doubt doing, to compel h er to do so. Tfae F o p e C o n d e m n s N a t ion a lism . L ondon , April 26.—The Times’ Roma cor respondent is assured upon excelleut a u thority that the pope w ill alm ost im m ediately instruct the Irish c le rgy to strongly condemn the plan of campaign, boycotting and other questions m eanwhile rem a ining in consideration, to gether w ith the reports of Mgr. Persico, which are alone adverse to the methods em ployed b y the Nationalists. K a n d y Stirs U p a Sensation. L ondon , A p ril 26.—^Lord R andolph Chm-ch- ill’s speech in parliament yesterday created a veritable sensation and caused genuine sur prise in all circles. It is admitted on all sides th a t this week’s session o f the bouse of com mons has greatly damaged the position of tho government. A B i g D r y G o o d s F a ila r e . D etroit , A p ril 28.—M etcalf Bros, & Co., retail dry goods dealers, doing tho largest business in the city, w h o gave a chattel m o rtgage M onday for $75,000, yesterday made an assignm ent to H enry T. Thurber, attorney o f th? company. Liabilities esti m ated a t $800,000; assets, $375,000. Mis m anagem ent a n d carrying too large a stock of goods are the causes o f tho failure.
