We are grateful to our friend, Prof. J. Avery Finger, of Charleston, for an in? vitation to visit the Crafts School, of 'which be is principal. He promises to show us around among all the free schools of Charleston. That would be delightful, and we think we could make a visit to the graded schools of Columbia and tbe public schools of Charleston profitable not only to ourself but to the public schools of Anderson County. A School Commissioner can not see too much of such things?he cannot be too ' well posted about every thing pertaining to his line of business?but here comes the rub, and'here the difficulty : School Commissioners have to "shave close (o make ends meet." Were we getting a salary that would warrant such'atrip, friend Finger's ia vita tic u would, certain? ly be accepted, and we would spend a week studying -tner excellencies of the public schools of the city by the sea. , Just hold your breath now and listen, and we'll soon see whether the State Board of Examiners will give the Nor? mal School to Anderson this year. Judge Murray ib our member of -that Board and promises to put' in some :solid licks for us. It seems to us the Board ought to decide that question in three minutes. There would be several disadvantages connected with having the Normal in Charleston. . What up-country teacher wants to spend the month of August in Charleston '?' After a session of laborious and exhaustive school-room work the teacher finds it more pleasant generally to go toward the mountains than toward the sea. Outside the consideration of health and comfort, board can be had at' much cheaper rates in Anderson than in Charleston... But let it be held wherever the? most good can' be accomplished. Would Charleston be effected to a very considerable extent by the School? Would many people in Charleston know that such a thing was actually in exist? ence in their midst? Why would they ? It's nothing new for them. They have operas, lectures and entertainments of so. many kinds there that the exercises of the Normal School would attract' very little if any attention. Our opinion is that much more can be accomplished by holding the School in a smaller town? one just about the size of Anderson. IMPEOVED METHODS. Teachers must improve their methods of teaching. Tbe people are demanding better results. They are beginning to look with more favor, upon "new-fangled ways." The progressive teachers are securing the best positions. Old fogies may oppose the new education, and try to make teachers slide along in the old ruts, but their power is waning. Tbe teacher who is content to keep pupils quiet and ask questions from the text-* book, must wake up or leave the profess? ion. The teacher should be the living 'soul of tbe school, to understand the needs of the child-mind, to stimulate and direct the energies of the child, and to' draw'out its faculties in such a manner, that it may be educated, developed, in accordance with nature's plans. Is the child strengthened by to-day's lesson? Have I followed educational principles ? Am I supplying the child's needs? These questions should be ever in the teacher's mind. If these questions can be intelligently answered in the affirma? tive, the teacher is a success; if not, he needs to continue the study of education. ?Iowa Teacher. INDUSTRIAL EDUCATION. Mr. Thomas Hardeman, of Georgia, has given much time and investigation' to one branch of the educational prob? lem, aud has succeeded in collecting much interesting information. In his view,,the defect ia the public school sys? tem ' is the neglect of -instruction and training for useful occupation. Mr. Hardeman is not an enemy of the public ' school system, and his array of statistics and opinions is intended to display its defects, and not as an impeachment of the 'system as a whole. He advocates ; industrial or mechanical tuition in the public schools, so that by practical hand? iwork pupils of every condition may be ' taught the secrets of handicraft, and obtain some knowledge of engineering, physics and the practical arts. England has 800 trade schools with thirty-five thousand pupils. In Franco there are trade schools, in eighty cities, with thirty thousand pupils, besides -two hundred smaller technical schools.? Prussia has two hundred schools, and Bavaria one hundred and fifty. In the United States there were only seventy--1 five trade schools in 1876 with about . seven thousand, five hundred pupils. There is evidently a great room for de? velopment, therefore, in tho direction pointed out by Mr. Hardeman, but it is always questionable how far it is proper or necessary that the free schools should give more than a strictly elementary education. The industrial schools which, are advocated ought not to be made an additional charge upon' the public? News and Courier. WOBDS MISUSED. ! Curious for strange, unusual, &c? "Curious" is equivalent to inquisitive, and ought to be kept to that meaning. It is very fashionable of late, however, to use it in the sense of provoking inqui? ry, or worthy to.be inquired into. "A curious child finds a curious [flower, and makes a curious remark about it." It is a pity to use a word three times in a short sentence, in three different senses. Description for kind, sort, &c.?A description is a setting forth of the pecu? liar qualities of an object, so that the object may be recognized thereby. This is a very different thing from sort, or kind, or class; and yet we sometimes hear of persons or things of every de? scription, when the speaker clearly meant to speak of persons or things of every class. Example for problem.?An example in Arithmetic contains the solution of a problem, as a model for the pupil's guid? ance. A problem contains work to be done by tbe pupil. Many text-books commit tin uistakc of calling all their problems examples. Decimal for fractional.?It is a great pity that nearly nil our text-books iu Arithmetic call the figures on the right of the "units' points" decimal figures, or simply decimals, to distinguish them from those on the left, which are deci? mal figures also. "Decimal" means re? lated in some way to the. number 10. The Arabic system, which we use, is called the decimal system, because a unit of each order is worth ten of the next order on its right; and this law operates exactly alike on both sides of the point. It is clearly absurd to select a common characteristic of two things to distinguish one of them from the other. Why not call the figures on the left of the point integral, and those on the right fraction al ? This would state the case of each just as it is.? Williamston Naiad. EDUCATION OF THE FUTURE. Tbe education of the past devoted its attention exclusively-to the mind. The education of the future is to include with mental training all the relations of the body. The old system forgot that facul? ties of mind are but functions of the body. The new must keep this constant? ly in remembrance. The system of the future is not wholly of the future. It is already far advanced to its establishment. The time has gone past when we could say, as Herbert Spencer did twenty years ago, that men take an interest in tbe rearing of the offspring of all creatures except themselves/and that the feeding and training of 'auimals are thought worthy of the consideration of a gentle? man who would think it beneath him to bestow a thought on the feeding and training of human beings. The depend? ence of mind on body generally, and the importance of preserving health in the young in order that they^may benefit by tuition, are now widery^'derstooTl:' It is admitted" thai, teachers and pa? rents ought to know something of the nature of the human economy and the laws of health, and that schools should be conducted on hygienic principles.. Vast improvements have indeed been effected in regard to the diet, clothing and cleanliness of children, whether in the nursery or the school-room, and the provisions made for healthful exercise in play-grounds, gymnasia and swimming baths betokeu au awakening to the truth that "to be a good animal" is the first condition of success in life. But notwithstanding this marked ad? vance iu educational policy, it must still be alleged, says Dr. Creighton Brown, in his Book of ifealth, that the relations of body antl mind are very inadequately understood by educators. Their conver? sion to muscular Christianity has been effected more by the observation of cricketers aud oarsmen than' by a convic? tion of the intimacy of the union of mind with brain. ." 'c While- believing that 'sound health is necessary to sound thinking, they have not yet grasped the principle that the brain is the ba?is of tbe teacher's opera? tions, that there is a constant parallelism between tbe development of the mental faculties and its growth, and that lungs, heart, liver, and kidneys?and, indeed, every organ and tissue in the body?are in constant communication with it, re? flect in it their good or evil fortune, and are in turn affected by its weal and woe. -?New York Christian Advocate. A Death-Trap in Brooklyn. New Yoife, May 5.?Early this morn? ing two houses, Nos. 55 and 57 Atlantic street, Brooklyn, fell in with a crash and theu caught on fire. A number of per? sons arc reported killed and others seriously injured. The Abbott buildings on State street, which are let out with steam power for various manufacturing purposes, together with an extensive building in the rear, were destroyed. The rear building was undergoing repairs and one of the props under the girders gave away, when the entire structure collapsed. The fire then communicated with the front buildings and, despite tbe efforts of the firemen, they were destroy? ed. Fifteen workmen are supposed to be in the ruins. " The building destroyed was very large and consisted of a main building, front? ing on Columbia street, with two wings, leaving a court in the centre. The es? tablishment covered two thirds of a block. It was occupied by about twenty manufacturing concerns, who rented steam power with their rooms and em? ployed an aggregate of 500 persons, the majority girls and women, and the greater part of them were at work" when the accident occurred. The cause of the fire was the overturning of the boilers of a soap factory on the second floor. The west wall of the middle wing on Atlantic street had settled. Workmen were screwing it up with jacks when it fell with a crash. The "building was twenty-seven years old and full of in? flammable material, and it was a mass of flames in a few minutea. The heat wasv bo fierce that the water was turned to steam and the firemen made no impress? ion upon the fire. They occupied them? selves with life saving and rescued many women from the upper stories with their ladders. The loss of life was greatly in? creased by the panic which prevailed among the inmates of the building. Many women jumped from the upper stories before the flames reached them and without waiting for the firemen's ladders, which were even then beiug raised to them. Some were seen to jump from the windows into the burning de? bris. A number of men were at work upon 'he wall which collapsed aud none of these has since been seen. Ten working girls have not been accounted for. Ti\e janitor of the building was killed within its wails after he had given the alarm aud returned to help save life. Four firemen were caught under one of the falling walls, but were dug out alive and will probably recover though badly in? jured. The fire chief expresses the opin? ion that twenty five or more persons are under the wreck, nil d?ad. Three bodies have been taken from tbe ruins. They were burned beyond recognition. The building was owned by Nathan Cushing, of Boston. The loss is estimated at $300,000. Insurance unknown. Later accounts from the Brooklyn dis? aster report only three bodies recovered Tand a dozen persons unaccounted for. He Killed his Father. On the 22d of September, 1S80, a far? mer of Springdale, Lafayette County, Miss., was waylaid and shot through the side. He managed to reach home and lived about three days. In his ante mor? tem statement he charged the crime on his son, Isaac Newton Goodwin. He stated that after he was shot his son came up and tried to brain him, but that by a desperate resistance he prevented it. Isaac N. Goodwin was arrested for mur? der, but in the face of this evidence was discharged by the magistrate. He im? mediately fled and went to Texas. His wife followed him, but was forced by his ill-treatment to return to her father for protection. She subsequently obtained a divorce. About two years ago Goodwin came to this County and lived with rela? tives near Parris Postollice, under tbe assumed name of Milton E. Goodwin. Last October he married Miss Em tea Ezell (a niece of Mr. A. C. Ezell,) wio is now left worse than a widow, and is soon to become a mother. His wherea? bouts recently became known to the officials of Lafayette County, and ar? rangements were perfected for his ap? prehension. On last Thursday night Deputy Sheriff O. M. Gentry surprised and captured him at his house near Parris, and lodged him in jail here. Deputy Sheriff Shive. of Mississippi, was en route for this place when the arrest was made. Goodwin is a man past 31 years of age, with dark hair and complexion, and an unprepossessing c mntenance. The chain of evidence against him is a strong one, but he never? theless confidently asserts that he will be able (o establish his innocence. He will be taken to Oxford, Miss., as soon as tbe necessary requisition papers arrive, and will be tried at the Court of Sessions, which convenes at thai, place on Monday next.?Spartanburg JlcaJd. ? Opposition to slavery was very gen? eral among enlightened Southerners fifty or sixty years ago. The early anti slavery sentiment in Virginia is well-known. The planters of the upper Districts of South Carolina, held a convention iu 181U to devise measures for putting an end to the slave trade and for the aboli? tion of slavery. The preamble and res? olutions passed by this convention were as emphatic as any ever adopted by a Northern abolitiou Convention. Good Farming-. "R." writing in the Pickens Sentinel of his trip to the late Presbytery at John? ston, has the following to say of Capt. William Neal of Anderson County, at whose house he spent the night: "Before leaving (his point we can not refrain from giving expression to im? pressions mado upon us by Capt. N. as a farmer. Not by what he said, so much as by what we saw. The very place has the appearance and air of industry and thrift. Capt. N. is certainly a wide awake, progressive farmer. He is en? riching bis lands with home made fertil? izers, which we regard as a most com? mendable practice. There were huge pfles of compost in his Jot, which were being pulled down and distributed iu the helds. We were told that the great quantity we saw, undistributed, was a small part of the amount composted, and carried away from the same place this season. By this process the arable lands of C3pc. N. are increasing in value every year, and the net proceeds of the farm are also on the increase. Is it not pass? ing strange that the great majority of farmers will subject themselves to .'a ruinous tnx in the purchase of commer? cial fertilizers, that exhaust themselves and render the soil less productive in the making of our 'crops?when, if they would take more forethought aud avail themselves of materials at home, they would make both themselves aud their land richer. Capt. N. believes in a vari? ety of production. On a small piece of bottom land last year, which was planted in rice, he mado a net profit of between fifteen hundred and two thousand dollars. He believes in the thorough preparation of the soil for all the varieties of crops, whether for cotton, corn, wheat, rye, rice, &c, and the consequence is that he is rapid, by the richest yields possible. He is also greatly improving bis stock. In a word, he is pushing forward all the farm interests, and keeps up with the most improved machinery and implements of husbandry. It is a great pleasure to visit such a farm, and to hear such a farmer talk. He, maguifies his works, and by so doing he proves himself to be an important factor in the progress of agricultural interests. We regret that our stay with him was so short." Washing the Air. Those who complain of rainy weather do not realize that uot only does the earth need washing, but also the air which we breathe so many times a day. The effect of raiu upon the air and the contents of the rain have been made a subject of ^examination by the meteorolo? gical council of London during the past two years. Three stations were used for collecting the rainfall?one at St. Bar? tholomew^ hospital, another at Upper Hamilton Terrace, in the Northwest por? tion of London, and a third at Hackney. It was found the rain contained twice as much impurity as that which fell at the suburban stations, and the impurities gathered at all the stations were in the same proportion. The chief impurities were found to be sulphates and chloride, and it was discov? ered that the ruin caught at St. Bartho? lomew's was always contaminated with soot and disagreeable to the taste. The summer rain is more impure than that of winter, and iu the mixture of London rain and soot a trace of arsenic is found. In summer the rain was shown to contain a larger quantity of sulphates than chlo? rides, which was ytipposed to be owing to the decomposition of animal and vegeta? ble matter during the warm months. After the rain has been falling for some time the impurities are found to diminish, and the satisfaction with which we I breathe in the washed air after a good rainfall is an evidence that our senses bear spontaneous testimony to its purifi? cation.? The Hour. How He Proposed. "And so she wouldn't have you ?" "Indeed she wouldn't." "How'd that come ?" "Well, I sat down alongside of her and took her by the hand, as I heaved a sigh too deep to sound." "How was that ?" "It didn't make noise enough. You see, I always do my sighin' in'ardly, and breathe through my nose to hide my breath." "Well, what then?" "I felt'her band flutter in mine, an' I could hear her heart thumpin' like, .a Wnterbury watch. I thought that meant 'say the word an' I'm yourn', an' so I said it, but I got left." "You don't tell me. How'd it hap? pen ?" "Well, she fired up like a hornet, an* said she wouldn't never marry no man what popped the question as though ho was referrin' to sp'ilt fish." "Well, that beats all. How iu the world did you do it ?" "Well I sorter give her hand a little squeeze, to show her I was cheerful, an' then I says, quite glad like, says I, 'Mi randi, can you stomach me?"?Chicago Ledger. ?

One ol these things is a bullet and the other an angry woman's tongue. ? Chauncey Depew in Ireland met a boy whipping a donkey. One of the traveling party said, "Boy, stop beating your brother."
