Tho Normal ls for the benoGt of thc children nnd patrons of tho schools as well as for the teachers. Better teachers, better schools. Let the teachers not fail to attend. And let tho trusteea, too, if they can. Let any friend to education come. Competent instructors have been employed aud faithful work will bc douo. Be on hand nt the opening exercises. The committee, consisting of Messrs. J. ll. Vandivor, Foster Faut and the Behool Commissioner, requested hy Miss Maggie Graham to decide as lo who wns entitled to the handsome gold pen she offered for thc best copy-book, decided, after very careful examination, that it should be given to Miss Kinma Kampy. The copy-book presented by Miss Rosa Dean deserves special mention. Indeed, it was almost akin to impossibility to de termine whether there was really any difference between hers and the ouo pre sented by Miss Humpy. The work was well done and reflects greut credit upon the teacher as well as upon tho patience and energy of the pupils. For tho most faithful work, thc prize, a volume of Campbell's poems, was awarded by Miss Graham to Master M. J. Dean. lier school will close to day. HOW AUTHORS COMPOSE. The difference in thc methods adopted by different authors is as great ns the difference in their choico of subjects. There is a story quoted in illustration of the different characteristics of three great nationalties which equally illustrates tho different paths which may bo followed in any intellectual enterprise. \n Englishman, a Frenchman aud a (i; >an, competing for a prize offered for tho best essay on the natural history of tho camel, adopted his owu method of research on tho subject. The Germnn, laying in a Btock ol tobacco, retired to bia study in order to cvolvo from tho depth of his philosophic consciousness the primitive notion of a camel. Tho Frenchman resorted to tho nearest li brary, and ransacked its contents willi a view to collect ail that other men had Bald upon the subject. The English mun packed his carpet-bag and set sail for tho East, that he might Btudy tho habits of tho animal in its original haunts. Tho blooding of these three methods is tho perfection of study ; buttha Frenchman's method is not unknown ovcu among Englishmen. Nor is it to be absolutely condemned. Tho man who reads a hun dred books upon a subject, in order to writo one, confers a real benofit upon so ciety, provided he does his work well. But some vory capital work has boen written without tho necessity cither bf research or of original InvesUgatlon. Trollope draw bis famous Archdoactn. Ile nover lived in any cathedral city except London ; Archdeacon Grantly was n child of "moral consciousness alone ; ho knew nothing, except indirect? ly, about Bishops and Deans. In fact, Tho Warden WOB conceived not primarily as a clerical novel, but as a novel which Bhould work out a dramatic situation-j that of an honest, amiablo man who was the holder, by no fault of bis owo, of an endowment which was in itself an abuse, and on whose devoted head ahould fall the thunders of tboBO who attacked the abuse. Bryan Waller Proctor had never seen the ocean when he wrote The Seo ; neith er Schiller nor Rossini bad seen Switzer land when they wrote their William Tells. George Cruikshankea, sketches of the Boulevards and Palaia Royal, elabo rated from aketches furnished to him, wero wonderfully spirited aud true, although he lad never been across tho Channel. Indeed, he nover got beyond a French seaport in tho course of his long life. A day at Boulogne comprehended all his continental experiences. Harrison Ainsworth, the Lancashire novelist, whon he' wrote Rookwood and Jack Shepherd reliect absolutely, on his power or reading up and assimilation; and nover bad the slightest Intercourse 'with thieves in h ia life. Tt is said that when he wrote the really admirably ride of Turpin to York, ho only T-ont at a great pace over the paper with a road map and description or tho country in front of him. It was only when ho heard overybody say how truly tho country was described, and , how faithfully be had observed distances and localities, that he actually drove over the ground for tho first time, and declared that it was more like his recount than he ot uld have im agined. S . V?. mao>oUld do well to carry a pen cil In his pocket, and writo down tho . thoughts of tho moment, Those that come unsought for ora generally the most valuable, and should be secured, booause they seldom return." This was the. ad vice of Lord Bacon, whose exaniplo has - been followed by many om Snoot mon. For instance, it ia said of Hobbs that, when ho ; composed bia Leviathan, ho walked much, and muted aa ho walked, - nnd that ho had in tho head Of his cano ' a pen and ink horn, and a note book in his pocket; i Aa soon ?s a thought darted into hi? tniud bo, entered it in his book. Miss Mortineau has. recorded that Barry Cornwall's favorite-method was indulged when alono in ii crov.il, and heat ic the streets of London. Ho also had a habit - of limning Into a shop'to writo down his verses. Tom Moores custom was to composo as he walked. Ho had a table iii his garden, on whlc' bb -.vreto down his thoughts, When tho weather was bad he paced up end .down bis small study. \%V iri?.extremely desirable, that thoughts should Lo'-mitten aa they Hajj, in the mind, becanao if they are not recorded at that time they, may never return.

The philosopher Emor Bon took similar pains to catch a fleeting thought, .fdr, whenever ho hads" happy ide?' he wtot? lt down, and when Sire.'

Marrying for Money. I had a conversation recently with a very clover and attractive New York lady, who, among other misfortunes, wns afflicted with $2,000,000. She said she would never morry, because sho would not believe that nuy mau wanted her fur any other reason than her gold. "And what," I asked, "do you lose thereby ? If a gentleman takes you because you are so pretty, the small-pox, u fall Irom a horse, any accident may destroy your beauty, and whore will his lovo bo if it is for that reason only be took you? If another one falls in love with youbecauso you aro so fresh, so young, so lively, limo ls safe to destroy all that, and your hold on him is hut. Hut if he takes you for your money, you need only beware of j dangerous speculations, and you will always keep the charm that brought him to your feet, and you hove nothing to fear." "That ?H ono way of looking at it," abe said, and so completely did abo em brace my opinion that barely n year after I received au invitation to her wedding with an English nobleman.-Tempi? Har. Love's Young Drouin. Edgar Hegosh was a young lawyer in not very flourishing circumstances in Austin. 1'ccuuiarily he might just aa well have been nu editor. Ho made up his mind to marry for money, so ho began paying his addresses to one of tho Misses Mctlanepin. Ills courtship auon reached that point that bo foll down on his knees before her, and, seizing her hands, said in au excited tone of voico : "Ho mine, Miss Dirdie. Without you lifo would bo indeed a bleak Sahara. May 1 hope?" Miss Birdie McHeuepin told him that sho could never be more than a sister to him. "That's bad," ho said, getting up und dusting off his pants; "but, say, Miss Birdie, you will put in a good word forme with your sister, won't yu?i, eh ?"-?Kivv Si/tinga. Twitting oa Facts. Two mon wero quarreling. Ono of them threatened to Bboot tho other. Tho threatened man, in revival of an old pioce of sarcasm, asked : "Whero do you bury nil your dead ?" Just then au excited man drow the satirist aside and said : i "My gracious, you ought not to talk hat way I" "Which way ?" "Asking that man whero ho burle? his dead." "Why ?" "BecauBo he is a physician."-Arlan eaw Traveler. A Peculiar Disease. "How are tho colored votera coming on out on Cedar Creek ?" asked a candidate of Unelo Moso, who came into Austin with a load of bay. "Doy's not well.

THE HALL SELF-FEEDING COTTON GIN* Manufactured at Sing Ping, N. Y., has given satisfaction wherever used. The Saws are marie of the best imported steel. The saw shaft is the largest made. An examination of other Gins will convince you it is the most substantially built Gin in use. It never breaks thc roll, and therefore does away with thc expenso of thc revolving head, as the secret of making thc Gin to prevent ita breaking the roll is in thc proper shape of tb? roll-box. Every one should examine Hie improvements in the Hall Gin made this year, especially thc improvement in the Feeder.
