Greenback Convention! A State convention of the inde pendent greenback labor reform peo pie's rights party is called to be held in Columbia on Tuesday, 5th of Sep tember, for the purpose of nominat ing a full State?- ticket and preparing for a vigorous campaign. Of course such a ticket will meet the hearty support of the Radicals throughout the State, and they will do all in their power to secure the defeat of Thomp son, the best friend the negro race ever liad in this State, by the votes of the very negroes he has befriend ed, and set up a mongrel government that would be a disgrace to any State. ?his is the tendency, and the only end ency, of the greenback move t, and if any white men are giv ing it their support and encourage ment through honest and conscien tious motives we can only say " they know not what they do."

The Democratic State Convention, assembled on the 1st and 2d insts., was composed of aa fine a body of men morally, physically and intel lectually, as ever met beneath the roof of any Legislative hall; while just a stone's thiow from them, and almost within hearing of their patri otic voices, the men and women who direct the morals and develop the intellect of cur children, had con vened for an interchange of ideas, and to increase their store of knowl edge, that they might be better fitted to inasier the great problem of how to educate. Such, however, was the universal interest manifested for th( political welfare cf our country, thal the importance of the Normal lnsti tute waned into insignificance besid< the more momentous question of hov to preserve our liberties and secur our happiness. And when the re suit of the ballot that made Co Hugh S. Thompson, the preset Superintendent of Education, tb nominee for Governor, was knowi teachers, those quaint unemotioni creatures, known only tb povert and care, raised a whoop that s Apache Indian might have snvie The ide-il hope of their lives ht been realized, the theory that tl pathway to fame lay through tl school room was literally demo strafed by the living illustration th there stood a school teacher who the nest gubernatorial term wou hold the reins of government, in t very hands that had held for ye? the text books o? our comm schools, and wielded thrt rod of c< rection over the heads of a thous* hapless urchins! Hereafter the pi o'er-labored school master, instead mazing down the dim vista of futur in pad contemplation of the narr boundariea of hi? work, will straight way before him, and wit his easy grasp, the dome ol tue e> tal building, where visions of tba less task* and meagre salaries ' vanish forever. I pray that in hm ?lui dreams of dt light be i never pause to reflect that tho the way ie short, it is narrow, few are the teachers that e therein. After the nomination for dover came that of Lieut. Governor^ the Hon. John C. Sheppard, offe field, was unanimously choaej xheart of old EdgefieKl onest pride himself to stand andard bearer, that ntest led to victorj as certain never t( lead to dishonor." Then came thf other nominations, until the whoh ticket was made up of tried men anc true, whose very names are thf watchwords of liberty and the syno ny ms of honesty. All honor to th? noble band of patriot that form?e that Convention. As long HS tb( 11 sunlight of freedom phall dawn upor. our nation's history, BO long will the list of these gallant repr?sentatives of the people remain dear to thf hearts of the son- ?nd daughteis ol Carolina! The Convention adjourned ot Wednesday; ami un Thursday the State Normal got regularly to work. About GOO teachers are in attendance; J and only three of these ?re from j Edgefield! Prol. M. A. Newell, ol Baltimore, is Principal of the Institut?, Miss Pu'chmond, of Baltimore, teaches written Arithmetic and Algebra. This lady pousses rare accomplishments, dcej good work, and gives universal satisfaction. Prof. .Toynes in his de partment handles the English lan guage with exceedingly great grace fie seems lo he a kind of iconoclast, j however, tearing down and setting at naught many t l the i ules o? grnra mm tu which teachers o? the old school .?eft? *o wedded. With many of these he is widely al variance, some ol whem hold up their heads in hely ho tor as they see him ruth lessly demolishing their j-et theories of } roperties, relations and govern ment of the different parts of speech. I3ut Le holds ever sacred the idioms of our language,. and under no cir cumstances will he consent to have their forms transposed or disturbed, or their ellipses supplied. His dem onstrations are clear aud vigorous. Altogether he is one of the most gilted and pleasant of men. The vexed questions of tbesciences under the skillinl manipulation of Prof. Sloan, of the Univ* rei ty faculty, immediately vanish. His lectures and experiments upon sound are the most interesting I have ever heard or seen. Prof. Reimann's ins ructions upon map drawing are unsurpassed, both in excellence of quality and in simplicity of the art. Prot. Piein hard's lessons in Calisthenics are j beautifti', instructive and amusing. He enters into his work with his whole heart, and wi us the deserved commendation ot the whole school. Alexander Graham, of the Fayette ville, N. C., graded'schools, is a mem ber of the iaculty that commands the admiration ot every progressive school teacher. He has gradually risen irom the old field echool to the top of the ladder, and stands to-day pre-eminently without a superior as a practical teacher iu the South. His department is history and Intel lectual Arithmetic, in both of which he is deservedly popular, but in the latter particularly he merits high dis-1 e 7 e > I. it ie ii il y m d. id ie tie n at in ld he ire on or nd Dor of itv OW pee hin ipi nk Wlll his nay ugh and nier nor, rhen dge and Unction. His analyses are the clear est, most succinct, and at the SP.me time most readily adopted, of any elucidations in mathematics I have ever seen. Amongst his contribu tions to educational literature is an article upon graded schools which, 1 have been told, possesses aa much merit as any paper ever written upon that much mooted subject. It first appeared in the Elizabeth City E .?:?>. omis/: Ol our own teachers, none have won more distiction than our neigh bor, W. N. Marchant, of Granite ville. Being naturally of a comba tive disposition, it is difficult, for Mr. M. to hold an audience long, but al most invariably when he finds an at tentive listener, conviction follows argument. Many of the most ab struse questions that have arisen at the Institute have been satisfactorily answered by Prof. Marchant. Besides the daily routine of school work at the Nounal.the exercises are interspersed with lectures by some of the most eminent educators of the country. Th-ere are also many eocial gatherings in the evening. One o; these, and that which promises to be thc event of the season, will be ? complimentary entertainment ten dered by the citizens o? Columbia a the Methodist Female College on th' evening of the 18th inst. Th grounds will be beautifully illumi nated, ?nd everybody is iu anticipa tion of the most delightful time. The County School Commissioner throughout the State are invited t assemble at the University building on the 17tb instant, when they wi be addressed upon the subject < school management, by Col. Thomj son and Prof Newell. The State Teachers' Conventic meets on the 15th and 10th.

OCEAN- GBOVE, N. .T., * August 8th, 1882 Dear Advertiser: Still on the wi Keeping up with the "sunu breezes," as you see. Last Monc when the Thermometric readi showed Charleston, down there n you, to be the hottest place recon in the United States, we were sie ing at night under thick covert and fishing for crabs all through day. it is the biggest "bug she one can find, lo see a party of la. on a crab tish expedition. As ? as one of the "horn 1 things" co in sight, there is a united scream can i e heard for miles around, ar you happen to throw two or tl down under the ladies' feet, the 1 shores and water resound with shrieks until the 'wail die*?ut i the distant sea. With all.this, 1 ever, our party, consisting of a a dozen ladies and gentlemen, ba me hundreds ir anrusiDg scene is to wat erl frsioj party landing from. ! >r, that is a two masted yacht ip being a yacht with one mast When th?y come within about a I mih of the shore, of course they have ti take small boats to land. Well, jus ) I as one of these boats with abou twenty-five in it gets within a fev y?rda ot the beach, the breakers wi! deliberately dump the whole buei ness right into the water, aud thi wr.ve receding leaves in a heap oi toe beach, the most wretched, looking ?ang imaginable. Wet? "Well, wi shouid rejoice to smile." Yet two o three hundred people will go ou every day; they go away out of sigh of land, and when they fetch up a home in the afternoon, nine mit o f|ten you will hear say, "What fool we mortals be." The scene for a warrior's eye, how ever, is along the beach, from abou ten a. m. till one o'clock, the bathin/ hours; that is to say, the most popula hours. The wat er, for some dista nee ou i* literally black with human bodies and the old bathing police and lift boatmen have all they can doto keei Watch over the little ones, and those who cannot swim. Ail kinds, shapes ages and classes, from the old mar weighing over two hundred pound; to the baby weighing tiffy. Thi wrinkled old woman, with ail bo tween her down lo HIP w^e baby girl, are frequently lifted high up io the same big wave. Tiiis liig aflWii as if rears up for an instant, exhibit ing this rni.-M ol humanity in eve?y conceivable position, is to a person taking it in on the shore, a won drously interesting and amaxiiiL' spec tacle. Gauzy bathing suits rage; fearfully gauzy in some cases.' Crie.' ones ate much affected, brief, I mean, as to src.8 and leg?, and growing, it is said, briefer and briefer. Most of the residents dresK up this way at their cottages, and walk boldly through the streets to the surf. Af ter ail, however, one soon gets used to the custom-little odd at Iii st. But "If we lead a life of pleasure 'tis no matter how or where." Ocean Grove has grown to be one of tho largest, sea-side resorts on the Jersey coast; and thal, means a good deal, when we lemember that Long Branch, Atlautio City, Capo May, Bonigat Bay, and many others, are strung out alung the sea front of New Jersey. The Grove, however, is popular, more or less, with a cer tain class of people. The land upon which the city is built, for it io A city, belongs to a Methodist syndicate, aa I do ail of the principal hoteU and boarding houses. The Methodist in fluence is at once feen, for they have rigid regulationi g verning the town. No liquor ib allowed to be sold here, not even beeil In tact it is difficult to purchase a cigar. They also pro hibit dancing at the hotels. No one is allowed to promenade on the streets or along the beach alter ten o'clock at night; so that it might be called the Good Resor*' Consequently mostly that class of people frequent it. But Asbury Paik, just across the lake, which is the boundary line, is a marked contrast, and has the "rep" of being a bold, bad place. Never thelesB, a great many verj people live over there in lbj time. This ia just about the lieu season, and to give an e?j ihe people who are here, ,md going daily, a lew I facts will suffice. In the besides the numerous hotelpj ifouses and private eotta are always full to their uti ?ty, lhere are over six " plc living in tenta.
