We refer the reader to the School-Journal for t-ome interesting thoughts and arguinents in favor of the adoption of the Pho fcetic J-rftfrn in onr Common Schools.

A motion to publish prof. Bishop's res'! port in the School Journal was lai^ on the table.

A report fr.nm Charles Barnes. Esq on

..y ^voimal Schools, was presented and read

ty Mr. Bowen. The report is in the form of A memorial to (he State I-egi*lnfrire.— The leport sets forth the condition of the Common Seiionls of the State, and names the wants and requirements of thef»ys«tem.

It dwells i:pon the importance of having teachers educated and qualified for the posts they assume, and speaks n-oinst the employment of persons who make teaching a secondary business. It anks of the

A committee of fire wan appointed to nominate officers for the ejisnin^r eat, and I piescnt tbtjr nr.mes before the Association tor election this morning. A committee was aiso appointed to nominate editors for the School Journal.

1 lie report of Mr. Barnes on the object of ICoimal Schofils was taken np for

adoption by the Convention. A spirited debate aiose, when it was agreed topostciic action on it rntil collated with the report of the Superintendent of Public Inulrnction.

On motion, the Assoriati\n adjourned r.ntil evening, wlien it convened to listen

to an address by J. M. Bryant, of Wil liamsport.

Tbe Convention is numerously attended —a large proportion of the members being women. In appeaiance the association is superior, intellectually, to the majority of Conventions that assemble here.

tffI he Teachers' Association spent most of tlie day yes ton! ay in listening to reports rnc! addresses. They were all too long for lis to report, or notice at any length. Some of them were dull and heavy, to us, ,, but may have been enfertHining to members of the Convention. The majority of

them, we think, were too long «nd much too tedious. „.

/Prof. Twining of Craw fords viile, m*de a report on the System of Education best 5- adapted to tlie wants of the American ''. People.

J- Huity, of Bifbmond, from a Commiitee on memorializing the Legislature, made a report on Tuesday evening, which was submitted lo tha Convention and a.adopted.

,rIhe Nornial School question was diseased for some time, pending which the Convention adjourned to the afternoon.

On reassembling, tbe Association was

The N, Journal of Commerce treAts a* a hoax the extaiordinary news from Utah, we published a few days ago in advance of all the Atlantic pre*s. We found

to ttip vrtand tlnry which we quoted, was

whether the Car on Valley K^fcment'i were in California or Utah. In that letter the Judge urged that the people of the Valley were opposid to thcMoimonu, an.t did not want to be governed bv them, he Judge also, some time back delivered a Judicial charge in the Salt Lake settlement, deciding that the common law is extended over the Territory by the organic act, the provision agninst 'polygamy being of coerce comprehended in that litw. At the mom recent dates th anti Wormon tetieis oi Carson Valley had become very much incensed against the polygamista, ami had formed a Vigilance Committee, in
