I enquired personally of tho patrons " of * tho school, and was glad to learn as I am also glad to r -port that the prgross made by tho ohildr, . in their various studies is mutually gratifying to both teacher and. patrons. Good country schools aro the great no. d of the masses, aod good and efficient tcaci era of our schools should have tbe encour- , agemcnt and support they justly merit, and I know no man more worthy such ohcomogcraout than Mr. B. F. Bison. Speoohes were made bv Messrs. J. II Sa*age, School Commissioner, W. McGowan, Hon. C- C. Gulp, Probate Judge James M. Gee, and County Treasurer, J. B. T. Scott. The Bpoecbes were mostly ou education, and all were delivorod in good style, and greatly to the credit of the speakers. The dinner was gotten up in good stylo and was made up of eatables that would tempt the appetite of au cpiam.
