^BJACH^?O^UMN, J. G. CLINKSCALES, EDITOR. EXAMINATION OF TEACHERS. Tho regular examination of teachers will tako place in the Military Acsdemy on the first Friday and Saturday in July -tho whites on Friday and the colored on Saturday, Let this be remembered nud let candidates for certificates meet the Examining Board at 9 o'clock a. m. Several colored teachers, holding certifi cates giveu by tho Examiniug Hoards of othe. ci unties and endorsed by our own, have not given satisfaction : all colored teacberB holding such certificates must meet tho Board at tho regular examina tion if they propoie to teach aoy more in Anderson County. Ono or two white teachers, holding such certificates, and failiug to give satisfaction, will be ad vised through tho mail to un ct tho Hoard at thc same time. COLORED INSTITUTE. Tho Institute for colored teachers will bo held at Aiken this yenr. Col. Cow ard has engaged Mr. Wm. T. Rodenbach to manage thc Institute, and, no doubt, every attention necessary to make it a success will be given it. Wo hope some of our colored teachers may bo able to attend. J, SCHOOL-HOUSE *T GEER J 8HOF. Deputy Sheri?", Wm. Geer, is making some good, honest efibrta to build a school-house at Goer's Shop, about four miles east of Anderson. Ho has a saw mill, and has mado very liberal proposi tion? to the citizens of that community. Wo hopo ho may meet the encourage ment and aid that tho character of the enterprise merits. We waul moro good Hchool-houses. It seems to us that ono in that community is a necessity, COUNTY NORMAL. After tho meeting of the Examining Board in July, we hope to bo able to an nounce the time for holding tho County Normal. At present we are negotiating with several Normal Teachers. Out of the number we hopo to seouro tho ser vices of one or moro compoteut lo make the Normal a success. While tko school is in progress, no public school will be allowed to run. It is intended for the benefit of the teachers, and they must attend if attendance lies within the range of possibility. BCH0OL-HOU8E0. My friond, what about your , school house? Do you never-turn your eye toward timi old weatber-be?ftn shell yonder when you stop your hotse at the end of the long row you have been plow ing? What about it? Are you going to start your children to Behool there again without making one honest effort to improve ita condition or appearance? Can't you give ton day's work to it after you get through with your crop ? llave you over spoken to neighbor "Ii" about it, and dooB ho fall in with your plans, or suggest any new ones/ himself? Can't you get up a little feeling on thesubject? If y?m Want to seo every phase of character, just witness a match game of base ball. Nowhere is character moro plainly marked than on a play-ground. AU that is low or meau in a boy or man will then show itself, while all that is noble, true and magnanimous in his neighbor will assert its presence. To taunt or jeer your unfortunate antagon ist in a friendly contest ia the conduct of a dastard, while courteous treatment under all circumstances is the character istic of a gentleman. Boys, remember thnt every'look, every word; every net is a letter that helps to spell cu AKA (.TER. J It was our lot to witness only the first of the Commencement exorcises of the Anderson Femalo Seminary. If one may judge from the large audience on that occasion, both the Commencement exercises and the institution itself aro appreciated by our community. The Rev. Mr. Bell's address to tho young ladies was thoughtful and suggestive, andf wo,hope, wHl bring forth abundant fruit. Wo wish ?ll the giris In ibo Coun. ty could have heard it. We hope lt may bo our pri vilcso lo read Judge Bleckley's poem, os we failed to hear it from tho lipa of tho distinguished author.7 i Let our people give this institution tbe sup port it deserves, j j COUNTY TEACHERS' CONVENTION. Notwithstanding we- look with consid erable anxiety to the good results of the proposed Normal School, let us. not sup pose thnt lt can do every thing for us that is needed. Without waiting to con sult the othor members of the Examining Board, y/e propose a Teachers' Conven' lion. , It need not last longer than two days-tinco nt most. A general and un restrained Interchange of ideas, A, free discussion of the plans, , modes aud va rious tactics practiced by the teachers could result in nothing but lasting good to the teachers and to the community 'In which the Convention is held. Is there a community in Anderson County that would entertain the white teachers for three days? - We do not h caita, j to aiSrm that a Convention of tho teachers would bo a blessing to any community. Such conventions in other coun UM have thrown now life ' And new vigor into sleeping souls, and aroused latent ener gies that havo stirred, not only thpir own aslghborhoods, but others atwell, radiat ing end reaching cut to tho remotest sections of the County. What commu nity, then, will send us nn invitation to hold our first County Teachers1 Conven* ll0&jri#ite* /rye hope to have sev ci il invitations lp present to the Board ai tho'mooting in July. The Convention will bo held in July or August when the crop3 are laid by, aud when such a meet ing will be a recreation and a pleasure to all concerned. . What communllyt;theo, ; will entertain the Convention? We promise jera valsa K^Tt?. Ithtsbesn our privilege to nUcnd several conven Clona, nod wo havo invariably gone away fooling improved aa a teacher aud as a &icud to education, and tbs neighbor hood/ whote hospitality we enjoyed, alway* asked for a return of the Conven tion tho next year. You always enjoy your Union Meetings, Quarterly Meet ings, Singing Convention?, etc. We promise to make tho Teacher*' Conven tion an occasion of no less enjoyment or profit. Bend us your invitation through your trustees or the pastor of your church. Your church would perhaps better accommodate tho Convention than your school-house. Please let us hear from you, if you want the Convention. Open and Secret Drinking? When rum loses its traditions of con viviality it loses all tho poetry, all tho charin that is claimed for it by thc vota ries of Bacchus. The royHtering drinker, thc "good fellow" who scatters half hts week's pay on tho beer-stained bar of a Saturday night, and allows his family to suffer for want of food, ls yet possessed of this charm of good fellowship. He makes his run swigging an oxcune to as sembla coteries of "good follows" of the ?arno calibre as himself. Without tho good fellowship, without comrades who will chat and exchange banter with him at the har or at the beer tablai, his tipple loses its taste. Solitary drunkenness would bc to such a drunkard an absoluto torture. It is rum as a provocation of wit and n promoter of good fellowship, that has a charm for him. A ixl the oue is inseparable from tho other. The sight of a friend and tho grasp of Iiis hand suggests as tho first thought, "J,ot's havo a drink." On the other hand, thirst makes thc proposition, "Where can I find a friend to drink with mo?" These mon are the open and above board drink ers. It is they who are held up ns fright ful examples by the temperance agitators a::d tho church, who are tho sworn foes of bar-rooms and thc saloon-keepers. Hut there , is auother class of drinkers more numerous than thoso who- hang over tho bar and laugh away their lives. It is thc sly class who sliuk through the Bide doors ull alone and have their rum handed to them in thc scclusiou of dark corners. Theelemeutof good fellowship docs uot spico theil tipple. AU is gross -love of liquor for ?ts tasto and secrecy withal. Tbe consciousness that the tip pler ?8 doing something that is wrong prompts only schemes of concealment. They havo reputations to lose, and they prefer to sacrifice their honor and the joys of illogical world pula a premium on Buch sneakiDg pretences, and holds up to honor tho man who act? a Ho if he is only smart enough to prevent him being found out. How eunuing they aro, these alv tip iilcrs, after their long practice iii deceit ! low they learn to give drug clerks a vinous wink at tho soda fountain I Why, it'a a perfect art. And when tho marks of their potations begin to make their ut mi;? tal; nhl o mani foliation;! on their countenances, how carefully thoy closo all tho avenues of assault 1 How slick they aro at evading questions. Now whore a churchman has red eyes and a nervous tremor that in any one else would bo interpreted to mean that he had had a night with the boys, he escapes with the explanation that this is the season when hay fever comes on him And ?hen you Bee him next with a bul bous nono all pimpled o'er with the lurid marks of Bacchus, ho will tell you that he is Butlering from nose cold, another of ] ?he trifling fashionable ailments of the limo. There is no UBO ; you can't nail thcGo sly drinkers ; but they tako lots of trouble aud lose lots of timo, and die drunkards in the end, juBt ns tho "good fellows" do. The only difference is that most of them keep their masks on while they dio, and indeed they often have their masks buried with them, to deceive the world. If there is any consolation all's well and good, but we think on the wholo tho "good follow" who drinks oponly. without hypocrisy, and for the conviviality and camaraderie of the bar as well as for the cflectB of tho poison, has tho hotter of the game ali through Ho is tho preferabio person, in our opin ion, in every way, taking bini os a man, all through. There can be no doubt of that. The "good fellow" is to be pitied and guided aright. The other ono de serves only exposure aud Bcorn.-Nevo York !ffar. The LlincKKiln Club.

Angeli was arrested, in Illi nois, for embezzlement. Ho waa tried, convicteil and sentenced to the peniten tiary for a term of ten ytars. because of | exemplary good conduct while a convict, he cut down Iiis limit of incarceration to lesa than seveu years. He was made Superintendent of the prison marble yard and, being a skilled accountant, perform ed tho duties of his position with skill and fidelity. He is now a free man. No favors were bestowed upon.him as a convict, nor did lie ask airy. Ho began ivilh liie rudimentary processes of stone cutting and worked himself up, by per sistent labor, to a most responsible post. So expert has he become, and so thor oughly has he expiated his crime, that, immediately upon thc expiration of his sentence, he was engaged by the peniten tiary contractors, at a large salary, to remain in charge of their business as its general manager. The deputy warden sahl of him : "In my fifteen years' experience I have never known a man with so great a talent for making friends-among prisoners and officers alike. We would part with him with genuine regret if bc were really iib going away. As it is, wc rejoice w emaocii Mr. Angeli has had a chabtauiug expo him upon his emaucipation." ? rnr ? ;r i riencc. It has been a remarkable one, because in a majority of cases, men Uko him become desperate or hardened, losing hopo and courage. Not one person in ten thousand would accept, UH he did, incarceration in that spirit of discipline which makes a belter man of the ofTendor, and, may bo, a stepping stone to heaven itself. Of himself Mr. Angeli said "At G o'clock to night the past becomes a cloded book; why open it 7 I came here over six years ago in obedience to a sentence whose justice I admitted and still admit. Since then I have paid the extremo penalty of the 'law . and have expiated so far as it ls possible the offen ses ol tho past. I have asked no favors, made no complaint, and make none now. I simply thank God that I have found it possible, by unrelenting dovotion to dep uty, to make a place even here. 1 begin the world, financially at least, jost as I did twelve years ago-with nothing except a number of friends whose true hearted kindness seems to me now to be worth the six years I spent here. I ask for nothing now except to be leftaloue; to have tho same chance as any other man.' That is modest, manly, pathetic. Wo have no doubt that, in God's providence, this man has redeemed himself, and should so stand before the world. That he did not lack friends who appreciated his repentance and expiation is credita ble to the human race, which is not al ways the unrelenting and implacable monster depicted by Victor Hugo, in thu character of Jean Valjoan and bin pur suers. It is uot likely that Mr. Angeli will push himself forward or seek to attract tho public eye unduly. Nor is it at all likely that bo wili ever again yield to the temptations that made hun a felon. Ho has shown himself worthy of trust, and will not lack that celestial recogni tion which causes more joy, in the unseen world, over ono sinner doing penance than over ninety-nine just men who used it not.-Augusta Chronicle. Experiment? Alado by a Local Druggist. "As a rule people have a very, poor idea of tho adulterations that are' made in the articles of food," remarked a local chemist to a reporter ol tho Post this morning. "What's your hobby now?" asked the reporter. "I have just been analyzing a number of tests for pure bakiug powder," replied Liio chemist, "and," bo coutinucd, "I am Burry to have to any I have found very little that approaches anything like being puro, and I think I have tested every variety on the market. Some of the cheaper gradea are horribly adulterated." "In what manner?" put in the repor ter. "The majority of the samples I have. been examining I And havo been adulte rated with alum. Pure quick yeast is two-thirds cream tartar and one-third soda. The former ingredient is very dear, selling at fifty cents per pound, so that you readily see a man could not afford to ma ko a pure article that would retail at fifteen and twenty cents a pound. The soda is cheap, and the adulterations are put in to supply the placo of the cream of tartar. Auother favorite adul teration ia carbonate of amonia, and the majority of powders, if put on a tin pan and heated, will givo off a stroug odor of j amonia." . ''What ia the effect of these adultera tions T" "The adulterated powder answers tho -une purpose os the nure article.

The Earliest Use of Gunpowder. In a paper recently read before tbe Shanghai branch of the Royal Asiatic Society, Dr. Macgowau aihrms the claims of the Chinese to be the originators of gunpowder and firearms. This claim was examined iu an elaborate paper some years ago by the late Mr. Mayers, and decided by him in thc negative. Dr. Macgowan admit? that gunpowder, as now used, is a European discovery. Anterior to its granulation by Schwartz it was a crude compound, of little une in I>ropelling missiles. This,, nays the writer, s tho article first us*d in China. Tho incendiary material* > tated by a Greek historian to have been employed by the Hindus against Alexander's army ara stated to have been merely the napthaj or petroleum mixturo of the ancient Boreang and in carly limes used by the Chinese. Thc "stinkpot," so much used by Chinese pirates, is, it appears, a Cam bodian invention. Dr. Macgowan states also that as carly as tho twelfth or thir teenth century the Chinese attempted submarine warfare, contriviug rude tor pedoes for that purpose. In the year 1000 an inventor exhibited' to the then Emperor of China, "a fire guu and afire bomb." lie says that while the Chinese discovered tbe explosive nature of niter, sulphur and charcoal in combination, they were leggards in ?tn application, from inability to perfect its manufacturo ; co, in the use of firearms, failing to pros ecute experiment, they arc found behind in scientific gunnery. tattling .noah About Illili.
