To the Editor of the Dispatch: The third meeting of the teachers j of Lexington county wes held in the Lexington Graded School building, on Saturday last, at 11 o'clock, with a good number in attendance. j Prof. L. A. Sease of the Lewiedale school, who is President of the As- j sociation, notified the Secretary that I he could not be present, and Mr. P. E. Shealy was made president pro I tern. The meeting was then formally j opened by calling the roll and reading the minutes, which were approved and adopted. The discussion of Civil Government next followed. Mr. Arthur F. Harman opened this question by fViof o ornna nlan to teach it is I " to i to organize a moot court as is done in law schools. He thought this plan would Dot woik so well when the classes are small. The tendency is to talk too much yourself instead of letting the pupil himself tell what he knows. Iudeed that is the trouble with a good many of us in many other studies. We do most of the talking while the student should do more than we. In order to make useful citizens? men who know how to cast an intel ligent vote, the children must be taught something of the duties that ! shall devolve upon him when in h s majority. ; (J. D. Seay thought the student L-nnfv something of the responsibility that the student shall sustain to his country and his fellow man. The future destiny of our countryshall soon be placed in the hands of the rising generation. Then t le question arises shall we teach our children to think, to reason, and to vote intelligently, or will we entrust them to the hands of scheming politicians to lead them to the ballot box ? It is far better and safer to teach the boys and giils of our country that tbey are a unit, an important factor in this system of government. Let's teach the masses their duty as citizens and we shall have a stronger government. The Secretary read a lengthy paper on corporal punishment and I think established the fact that the rod still maintains and important place in the school room. There are as many abuses of the rod as there are uses. Mr. Thad. W. Dreher thought the child should be whipped when no other punishment would accomplish tho result. He said that whisping, and a good part of the other rigid discipline to which pupils are subjected, could be dispensed with if the children were properly trained at home, but because some parents fail in this duty accounts for so much trouble in tlje school room. Parents often forget that children can't see things as other people see I them, and furthermore, that young people are given to exaggeration. Since this is so, Mr. Dreher thought it very dangerous to allow them to biiug home news from school. This is a very baneful policy. If the parent lends a willing ear to the child's story he will soon find many things to blame the teacher for. And when this begins a great deal of the teacher's usefulness is destroyed. He said further, if parents cannot place confidence in the teacher that be will treat their children properly, not send to him at all. A child will be taught very little by a teacher in whom the parent has no confidence. If parents could only know this they certainly would cease to destroy the usefulness of the schools. Let the teacher and the j)arent understand each other and then, if possible, join heart and labor in this noble woik. Miss lleudrix said the rod was necessary from the fact that all ! Tested i. : i and jw ; [ true. !; TXT. IEZ i\ ... Solicts a Share oi I children had Dot been brought op ! | properly in the homes. "When even j mother in the land sees to it tnat ; her child is taught to obey those iu j authority then the rod can be dis! pensed with in the school room. As a general thing those parents who allow their children to do just as i they please at home expect them to j go to the school and do the same ' way, and from such sources come a great many o? the troubles of school. , That student who keeps his father j and mother informed as to the short j comings of the teacher and the mis \ ? conduct of the other pupils is very j careful to never say anjthing about the trouble he gives the teacher and the wrongs be does. Mr. Fitzgerald said he was taught in scbool.3 that were much more j I i ? I severe in punishing children than the methods now employed. Then a ! . t . i , ! 'arge, broad strap witii tacKS driven j through it was used in inflicting , puuLhment. The members agreed that a flexible ! villow switch was the necessary thing with which to inflict chastisenent. Sir. Farr talked about the advisability of a Normal Institute for Lexington county next summer. He ^aid he wished to get the sentiment of the teachers of the county, that is to whether they desired the holding of one, and if held would they attend. All who expressed themselves were in favor of having one to be held at Lexington at some time that wili be most convenient for the teachers. Several members expressed themselves as anxious to attend should one be held. These An o nrvoaf nf fTflfld 1UOUIUICO uu U ^ivuv V?VM> V. and all teachers who attend them go away benefited. The teachers present manifested a great deal of interest in the discussions and all agree, I believe, that we had a very good meeting. The next meeting will be held in the Lexington Graded school build* ing, on the last Saturday in February, at 11 o'clock. Every white' teacher in the county is urgently requested to attend this meeting as a subject of great importance to every one will be discussed. Let ! J j every teacher do his utmost to come, I because we are very anxious that not ! one be absent. Please all come ! without fail. L. A. Sease, Pres. 0. D. Seay, Sec'ty. Resolved, That every teacher in | Lexington county is urgently reJ quested to attend the next meeting | of the Teachers' Association, as business of importance will be transacted on that day pertaining to the arrangement of a Normal Institute this summer. Resolved, further, that those teachers who cannot possibly attend i the next meeting express themselves | byletter to the County Superintendent in time as to whether they desire an institute this summer or not, and as to whether they will attend or not, if one is held.

For Fair Play. North Edisto, S. C., January 25,1807. To the Editor of the Dispatch: Please allow me space in yuur columns to say a few words in regard to the cotton growers' meeting on the 15th instant, as I was not allowed to express my views on that day, altbougn I baa been asneu 10 ao so by men from different sections of the county, I will now attempt to give them in as few words as possible. Every man of sense knows that the credit of the country is based on bales of cotton to be raised. If a man rents land he gets a certain number of bales. If he hires a cropper he tries by all means to make him raise as many as possible. If he hires wage hands he estimates how many bales it will take to pay wages and | ration bills and how many he can I have left over. If he goes to borrow ? j money he is asked at once about how | many bales he expects to make and j if a tenant how many bales he pays j for rent. So 30U see every species of 1 agricultural business is based cn | cotton. If a man owes do man anyJ thing he can lay on his oars and let j the woild wag as it will, but if be is i iu debt, he has to make an attempt to pay, and what can he do but raise cotton in this belt? Talk about rice! How much land will it take to make | enough lice for any family? Besides we can raise money in no other certain way but by the sale of cotton. I will state for the information of the ! censor of the meeting that we do not ! plant ten acres to the mule in our i township and besides we raise our own I corn, bacon, molasses, lice, potatoes, j kc , at home, but having no market | near enough we try to make just j enough for home consumption. So far as my not being in sympatl y | with the meeting, that is a false acJ cusation. Sympathy is one thing and j common sense judgment is another I Township, Cjunty, State and NaI tional conventions will do very well as wind machines but at the same I time the boys will plow on prepar! ing to plant cotton. Cotton at five j cents is bad, but 110 cotton to sell at | five cents is worse. Every man is i guaranteed the right to do as he p'eases as long as he pleases to do 1 - i r _.i._ :l ji ..... . ri?fOl aua 1 bUULLlll ILJt'fU 13 UU ?iuui; i O O ' in raising cotton at a loss, as the loss falls altogether on him. It the powers that be would get up a scheme i for a man to raise all the cottou he i ' could and was not to expose for sale | only so many bales to the plow at j certain fixed dtit?s this would smack I of probable rise in price and would T, JE., Evd:-^.2sr-^ iagc. Prompt and " cieate an incentive to combine. It would besides not disturb the relations between creditors and debtors j to any great extent and besides the amount of cotton in planters' hands would not effect the supply if the consumers knew they could not get it without bidding up the price. I am as much in this movement as any mau and will go into a bond Dot to I plant a seed if the people say so. j Acreage has nothing to do with it, as | a mau can raise as much on half a j crop as on a whole one. Some will i say plant the other in other things. I will ask what will you do with the ! other things, as a money raiser, in ! ? 1 I'll ? 1 lue lull or winner. Yours for fair play. J. F. Lyles. Contest e 1 Cases. Arguments Over Congressional Flections. | Special to tbe Register. J Washington, Feb. 3?The Johni ston-Stokes contested election case, the last of the three from South Carolina, was argue d today before committee No. 3 of elections, by J. H. j Ostendortf, Esq , of Charleston, and i Gen. J. J. Micbener of this city in ! j behalf of the contestant and by Hon. j Sam Dibble of Orangeburg for the j j contestce. | B. H. Moss, E q., the sole counsel j j for Congressman Stokes, was unable j to attend on account of sickness. ' ! This rendered it necessary for other l counsel to be employed. The time ; was so short that Mr. Dibble was j unable to famileiize himself with the ; greatness cf testimony in the case as j j well as trie ipgai proposuions mvoiv- | ed, so it was arranged for Dr. Stokes himself to argue the facts and Mr. Dibble the law. The doctor was ! spared that necessity by reason of | counsel for Johnston frankly admit- : ting that unless the South Carolina , constitution, and registration and ! election laws passed thereunder, | shall be declared void the contestant I had no case. In other words, they i conceded that if their laws are valid, | Dr. Stokes* title to his seat is valid. ! So as stated this reduced the case to a question of law only. The arguments of Messrs. Ostendoiff and Michener were singularly feebla owing to the fact that they hid nothing on which to stand. But they were as goed as could be made on that side. The speech of Mr. Dibble was singularly able, not only because of of the impregnability of his position but by reason of the thorough mastery of his subject enabling a logical and well traced miud to present the matter in an entirely convincing manner. Not only by the question propounded by the Republican member of the committee to counsel for the duriuff the argument, but ~v'~ O by the general understanding here oougress will not undertake to reduce i sovereign State to a more province Tne case of Talbert and Stokes are identical and they are as secure in their seats as is Czir Reed in his. but the case of Kllictt is different The Republicans contend that even assuming the validity of the election laws Murray is entitled to the seat. Since this necessarily involves a question of fact and as two-thirds of the committfe and a majority of the house are Republicans there must need be seme doubt that result with the odds in favjr the sitting member. Royul makes the food pure, ! wholesome and delicious. BpR POWDER J Absolute!/ Pure j ^ ROYAL BAkINQ POW06R CO., NEW VOR<. DOMP/ ^.G-ESS, Polite Attention. The Deep Furrow at the Last Working. As regards the agricultural plan of Mr. E. D. Thompson, of York county, who, last year, raised four biles of cotton upon one acre of land, a contemporary speaks thus: Oue of the interesting points in ! Mr. Thompson's account of how he j made so much on one acre, i9 that he selected the seed of the best of stalks. As he says, the seed should j properly be called "King's Further Improved." Any farmer can do this. ; It requires considerable trouble, but , nothing is gained without trouble. ' Another interesting point in this very interesting experience is the value Mr. Thompson attributes to "the deep furrow at the last working." "\Ye , confess that we are somewhat at a ! loss to understand this, or Mr. ! Thompson's meaniug. We have always been told by cotton planters j that the surface roots of cotton ! plants produce the roots, and that ' "at the last working" it is dangerous ! to throw dirt around the plant, because it then causes it to make new roots at the expense of the fruit. It may be, however, that we misapprehend Mr. Tompson, and his "deep furrow at the last working" does not throw dirt around the plant. At all events, Mr. Thompson's experience is very instructive, and we invite our farmer's attention to it. Has Disappsarsd.

T3w Tyrolose Loyer. In the Tyrol the first time a young man pays a visit as an avowed lover he takes with him a bottle of wine, and, pouring out a glass, presents it : to the object of his affections. If , she accepts it the whole affair is I settled and his proposal of marriage ; (unspoken) has been accepted. Some i times she is not prepared to surren! der at once, and then she will make i excuses as to wine disagreeing with i :er, or that her priest had forbidden 1 her to take any, or, in fact any subterI fuge, that occurs to her at the moment. Tbe purport of the excuses is that the proposal made by the offer of wine is premature. Not a word need be spoken, as the act of ''bringing tbe wine," as it is called, is synonymous with the act of | proposing, and the custom dates back to the Ninth century. If any of the , wine is spilled it is considered an unlucky omen, and there is a saying for an unhappy marriage. "They have spilled the wine between them." ? . Consumption Positively Cur9d. I Mr. R.

When asked if it was tr le that he was going to make the race, he replied that he could not yet say; he had not fully made up his mind yet as to what he would do. When asked about his position in regard to the higher educational institutions, which has been much discussed since his name has been mentioned in connection with the Governorship, he said he had pledged himself in the constitutional convention to their support. His fight there wa9 to keep them out of the constitution, because he did not be t 1 . I-- 1 At lievo tney suouiu not oe pui mere. When that was won his fight was clone. He thought all of them should be well supported, and that some permanent form of support should be agreed upon, taking them out of the aunual fights over the appropriations aud abiting friction on account , of the denominational colleges.
