TEACHERST ASSEMBLY,
Important Matters at the Asheville
Session.
eens
Mr. Eprtor :"I gave you an ac-
count of the introductory exercises of
the TeacherTs Assembly a few days ago.
Doubtless it would be interesting to
many of your readers to have a short
~sketch of the entire meeting. The first
day of the session was devoted to
questions relating to the public
schools, such as: ~The County Exams
iner, School Supervision, The Necessity
of Local Taxation for Public Schools,
and the Means of Securing Local Tax-
ation.
These questions were thoroughly dis-
cussed by prominent educators an1 res-
olutiuns passed favoring local taxation.
A resolution was also passed in refer-
ence to School Supervision, and a com-
mittee of nine appointed to draft a bill
and present it to the next Legislature,
The resoluiions tavored dividing the
State into School Districts of from two
to six counties with a man for all of his
time in charge of each district. At
the night session of this day the Presi-
dent delivered his annual address on
oEducation in North Carolina since the
Civil War.�
O.. Thursday, the second day, there
was a brief address on the education ot
the deaf, and this was followed by sev-
eral classes from the North Carolina
school for the deaf in charge of their
teachers. The various methods of
teaching the deaf were shown, and were
a revelation to many, especially the
process of teaching them to utter artic-
ulate souuds and afterward to combine
those sounds and thereby talk. It may
be of interest to some to state briefly
this process of teaching them to utter
words distinctly. They are first taught
to make sounds by putting their hand
on the throat of the teacher, who utters
the sound and the child catches it from
feeling. This is repeated many times.
When the sound is not properly made,
because the tongue is not in the
proper position, the teacher with some
kind of an instrument pushes it quickly
in proper position while the child
is endeavoring to make the sound.
This is repeated until the sound is _per-
fect. After this the child learns to
make the sound by watching the mouth
of the teacher, and later to utter words
and repeat sentences in the same way.
It is wonderful how they can thus be
taught. The classes before the Assem-
bly were composed of pupils who en-
tered the school last fall and therefore
had only been instructed one session.
The other methods were interesting
but the above seemed most wonderful
to me.
Followmg this the question, oEn-
glish"What to Teach and How to
Teach It,� was ably discussed by Profs.
Sledd, Harrison and Hume, who fill
the chairs of English at Wake Forest,
Davidson and Chapel Hill respectively.
The night session was profitably
{spent in listening to an address on
oThe Acropolis and Greek Culture�
'| by Dr. Staley, President of Elon Col-

much comment as to the relative length
of her own and other reigns in England.
George IIL, who died early in 1820,
out-reigned Victoria. She will have to
rule a couple of months or so yet to be
even with George, but she has it on
him in this respect, to-wit: George
was crazy the last nine years of his

Pensions Again.
William E. Curtis says that 970,824
persons are now drawing pensions trom
the Federal government ; 682,128 of
that number were soldiers in the war
between the States. There are W90,-
879 pensioned widows and minor child-
ren, and about 25,000 navy pensioners,
In round numbers there are over 900,-
QUO persons drawing pensions as a re-
sult of the civil war. It is estimated
that 1,125,000 men are still living who
foughtin the Unon army. From the
above figures, remarks the Roanoke
Times, it seems that over 60) per cenu
of them are now drawing pensions, and
it is alsoafact worthy of note that
atter a third ot a century the number of
Union soldiers drawing persions is
greater than the total number of sold-
iers who entered the Confederate army
from the beginning to the end otf the
war.
This pension business is a great busi-
ness, surely, and the worst of it all is
that there seems to be no end toit. No
one objects to honest pensioners draw-
ing money from the public treasury,
but we think the most of it goes to
other kinds who have no shadow of
right to the money they draw.
The NorthjCarolina Fioat.
One of the most unique features in
the big parade on July 2d will ~be the
float Which the North Carolinians will
have in liné. oMessrs. Mitteldorfer &
Cr ., decorators, few days.ago received

Upon it is a pyramid, made to imitate
stone, nine feet high, and seven feet at
the base. One one side of this are the
words, oFirst at Bethel ; Last at Ap-
pomattox ;� and on the opposite, the
followin, inscription. oNorth Caroli-
naTs roll of honor, 115,369 voters, 125,-
000 soldiers, 14,522 killed, 21,602
died.� On the other sides are pictues
of Lee and Davis. On the front and
rear ends of the float will be a stack of
arms and on each corner a cannon ball.
Over the pyramid is a canopy, and on
this will be seated one of North Caroli-
naTs fairest daughters. She will occupy
quite an airy seat, as she will be four-
teen feet from the ground. °
The float will be drawn by eight
horses, each of which will be ridden by
a negro black as the ace of spades.

_ Apphed Theology.
- Stonewall Jackson,s religion was al-
ways spoken in the same breath as his
military genius"of which, indeed, it
was an integral part. His servant
used to say that he always knew when
there was to be an especially bloody
battle, for the general spent most of
the preceding night on Lis knees. His
staff could not fail to be imbued with
the sentimept of their great leader.
Mr. J. N. Jones, a chaplian in the Ar-
my of Northern - Virginia, relates a
characteristic incident that owes iis wit
and complexion to StonewallTs well-
known religious character.
During the battle of Malvern Hill,
General Jackson rode. as was his wont,
jnto the very hottest of the fire. For
some time he and his staff sat on their
horses at a point at which there was a
converging artillery fire, but the gener-
al seemed io be entirely oblivious of it
uniil one of his couriers was killed.
Then he turned to his staff, and told
them io dismount aud shelter them-
selves.
Major Dabney chanced to be near a
very large, thick, oak gafe-post, and
very wisely got bebind that, sitting
bolt upright with hij back against it.
Soon after Major Nelson rode up to
biing some message fiom the general
of another division to General Jackson,
the situation. Delivering his message,
he rode to Major Dabney, saluted and
said : |
oMaj. Dabney, every shot and. shell
and minie ball strikes just where the
Lord petmits. You ~must excuse me
sir, for expressing my surprise that you
tween you and Special Providence »�
The major not at all abashed, replied,
oMy dear fellow, you do not under"
stand the doctrine of Special Provi-
dence. At this juncture, I look upon
this gate-post as a very Special Provi-
dence.�

Mail Sack Repairers.

At Washington the attempt to cut
down the wages of the women employ-
ed in repairing the mail sacks has
aroused a storm of indignation. oThese
women have the most unwholesome
repulsive and il] paid work that Uncle
Sam has to dispense,� says The Wo-
manTs Tribune. It is as much as per
sons accustomed to breathe pure air can
do to perform an errand at the back
part of the postoffice where these filthy
mail sacks are inT use. But women
work over them at piece work, and can
earn but from 50 to 60. cents'a day.T
Yet when there is an attempt to reduce
the drice, women complaining are told
by the authorities that oif they do not
care.to work at the price they need not,
as.there are plenty of others who would

-"The coffee crop of Venezuela
amounts te $15,000,000 a year in value,
The average crop is 60,000 tons of coffee.
Two-thirds of this product is exported,
mostly to England. Maracaibo is one
of the centers of trade; Maracaibo cof-
fee is known everywhere.
"A long seties of experiments, in
which dogs were fed alternately with
each substance during four consecutive
periods, has shown, it is stated, that
natural butter and manufactured oleo-
margarine are practically equal in di-
gestibility and nutritive value.
"A correspondent writes to Nature
that carp are very fond of the larvae of
mosquitoes, and, as this fish thrives in
the only kind of water in which the
larvae of the mosquitoes can live, he
suggests that these fish might be em-
ployed to exterminate this pestiferous
insect.
"Africa is becoming a very good cus-
tomer of the Pacifie states. Lumber
and flour are the staples of the trade,
and the shipments are rapidly growing
| in~importance. The largest shipment
of flour ever made from the Puget Sound
region for African ports was being
| loaded a few days ago at Port Blakely.
| It consisted of 3,000 sacks.
/ About 15,990 ters of starch have
heen made from potatoes this season
in the three states of Wisconsin, Minne-
seta and North Dakota. Not far from
3,500,000 bushels of potatoes have been
thus used, and yet this represents about
half the product of the potato belt.
The farmers have received an average
price of ten cents a bushel for the po-
tatoes.
"The latest discovery of a new star
was made by a woman without looking |
at the heavens. Mrs, Fleming, af the |

Peru last July. The new star is in the
consiellation Centaurus, and appears
to have changed into a gascous nebula.
"-The saltiness of the sea has much
to do with the ocean currents, which
distribute the heat of the tropics over
the colder regions of the earth. Cur-
rents are largely due to the difference
between the specific gravity of sea
water and the fresh water of rains.
Thus when rain falls on a certain part
of the ocean the effort of the heavier
sult water of the ocean to establish an
equilibrium ~causes a current.
"The minute creatures that have lived
in the sea for ages past have ieft endur-
ing monuments in the shape of islands,
rocks and continents. If the sea had
not been salty, these marine animals
could not have existed and secreted the
hard substance known as a ocalcareous
skeleton,T which has largely contrib-
uted to the growth of continents.

In an almost inaccessible mountain
fastness in Mendocino county, 18 miles

A Bit of Unneecded Advice.
It would be a good idea for mothcrs-

be sensible. ~The husband's mother, as
a rule, is too fussy about her son. Of
course, it is difficult for her to realize
that another woman and a comparative
