Ife?H^?oi/UMN. J. G. CUNKSCALES, Editor. 5 Mrs. Darricott's serious misfortune is" deeply regreted by every one whose pleasure it is to know her. The Institute had no more apt pupil and certainly no more earnest or enthusiastic one. May she soon he entirely well and ready for the duties that await her in her school? room. Our readers will, no doubt, expect us to say something this week about the County Normal. Matter for the Teach era* Column must be handed to the print? er on Friday. .It.is now 10 o'clock, Fri? day night. We have begged friend L?ngsten'to' crowd, in-a few; words to? morrow./^We will have .something to sayin tjie/utaps about the workings of the-institute1."""- Suffice it now to say'that, it was a success beyond the shadow of a doubt. rPxof. d*C;.Beed, Principal of the Cokesb'ury school, says he has at? tended several State and County Nor? mals, bnt that ours came nearer to his Jd^ .of a Normal .School than any other heaver attended.: I This Opinion,1 coming from a gentleman of Mr. Eeed's attain? ments, is worth a great deal. The en ricott, one of the most enthusiastic mem? bers. .Tho-courteous treatment of the instructors at the hands of the City Fathers was very gratifying to us and highly ' appreciated by the instructors tfeffctaiselves. Mayor Tolly knows how to show off our town to advantage and at the same time make a ride delightful. More hereafter. ?| _ m_ ? ? ;r leabning to teach. ?ljen.' Lewis M. Ayer, thedistinguiahej?; "Sesidentof the Anderson Temale Sern" inary, has very kindly allowed ? us the use; of a copy of a letter.he wrote recent ly.tr> a lady who applied for a teacher?? potion in his worthy institution :6!% leaning. The Teachers' Column has. always a warm welcome for any thing th.4 comes from the pen of so able anp experienced a teacher. Here is the let? ter:' ' ' Dbak Miss--: , -v You speak of attending a summer' course at the Sauveur School, to study "the natural method.*' Pardon an ub? man?one of large as well as long expe? rience?for taking- th? liberty of suggests ing to you, in.this connection, that-while ifrmi^>lM6f advantage to everyHelicher to study "the natural" and every other method pertaining to the art of teaching, we most be guarded lest the so-called "natural"; be rendered the most unnatural; All novelties are not improvements) Great and substantial progress is unques tio^J&i?eu&\fnWc in' ^educational; methods and appliances, and every con? scientious and aspiring teacher should strive to keep fully abreast with the true progress of our ago; but let us carefully cU?crnniDato between the genuine and the spurious, and eschew all empirical artifices in this great business. . "Prove all things; hold fast that which is good." vy Teaching should be regarded and par sued as a science?a science founded on the nature and laws of human mind. Every teacher should therefore strive, in the first place, to become a thorough metaphysician in both theory and prac? tice. When Once well grounded in the knowledge of mind add of human na? ture, and habituated to observing closely the multiform phases of the phenomena of mind, so transparent in the young, we will generally be able very, readily to invent for ourselves, and to ingraft the higher and better forms and methods of art on the underlying basis of sound science. In other words, a master of mind will be abje to- improvise the very best methods and expedients necessary for adjusting the true' principles of his science to all the various .circumstantial conditions that may arise. There is great danger in undertaking to apply rigidly formulated rules, in de? veloping' and training so versatile, and flexible a thing aB the human mind. In? deed, it is well to remember that no rule, in any science, can be made so flexible or so comprehensive as the principle it is intended to express: cWjbat, therefore, would be natural and best in one case, will,often prove rcost unnatural and del ' eterioas in an other. ? -These", and similar reflections, have for some time been forcing themselves into my mind,'from the fact that the conspic? uous educators of the.North have, tome, manifestly, appeared disposed to make the matter of education too much a sub? ject of art, and by far too little a subject of mental-science. Aud i am such'an enthusiast in behalf of education, espe? cially female education, that I exceed? ingly regret to see any serious mistakes committed by those who are anywhere engaged in the great and .glorious work. Most respectfully, your humble ser? vant, Lewis M'. Ayer. ' PBBYJJfG OFON TEE SCHOOL fund. Great responsibilities rest on a teacher. A sacred trust is committed to his care, and to understand his duty as far as he can should be to him a matter of earnest, constant inquiry; and how can be attain ' to a 'commendable degree of excellence in his noble work so soon and so easily as by mingling with his fellow-teachers in deliberative assembly? One great evil could be remedied by teachers' asso? ciations, and that is the taking of the teachers' profession as a last resort Competency would be more in demand, parents would choose rather to employ those who.were striving to qualify them? selves for their important work, and thus the- door would, in many instances, be closed against incompetent, designing, shiftless persons, who prey upon the school fund of tho country with the greed that might be expected, a starving wolf- to exhibit when he finds wherewith to appease his. hunger. The future of the country depends upon the training of our youth, and the training of the youth upon that of the teachers through? out the land.?Hampton Guardian. ? Aaron Hulto of Lexington County has fn two or three years, witbont means and help except his brawny arm and in? domitable will, paid for a farm of 143 acres, erected-a neat dwelling, with all necessary, outbuildings, and has 45 acres in cultivation with one horse. His farm is unsurpassed in quality and condition. ? School Commissioner J. R. Little informs us that hog cholera is fatally prevalent on plantations in the upper part of the County. Last week he lost fifteen head. Turpentine with dry corn as a remedy is said to be very successful. The hogs are kept close so as to deprive them of water, and the corn is thorough? ly coated with turpentine.?Marion Star.' ?- Mr. Robert Morrison, of Ebenezar York Count?, has shipped more than fonr thousand pounds of grapes tbe pres? ent year and expects to ship about'one thousand pounds more. He has a vine? yard of about three acres and expects to add to it each year, as he considers the grape r<crop a very valuable one?better than cotton. He relaized 10 cents per pound for tbe grapes already sold. f Overworked Women. Xouise F. Bryson contributes tbe following to the Christian Union. Its truthfulness will be recognized by every one who has had much acquaintance with life. She says: ',: American women can do anything, so they tryto do'everything. Nature cries out against this covetousness. No one person is allowed to have or do every? thing. Only a certain amount of vitality is manufactured within a given time and if the expenditure exceeds income, the .result, according to Micawber's calcula H|on,4 is?|nisery I That is^ the state of our women?misery from overwork. It grows largely from the fact of not understanding tbe relative value of things; and of not understanding the' re lativeness of things themselves. Luxury and beauty have a great moral influence,: but they are not so valuable as peace of mind and rest of body, nor is their moral influence as great as that of a cheerful woman. Her price is above rubies. Like,the Indian.chief, we are forced to Say,^mournfully*, "Too much house." That is what ails our women ; they are dyiffg of^WTtntTchlic-use."" When there is^ojnuch,house, there is always too flittie* c?me. " Qood house? keeping is by no meads as rare as good home-keeping. It is of far less impor? tance. A certain amount of drudgery must be gone through with, daily, in any calling; about three-fourths of life is drudgery. One-fourth can be rescued from the toil and moil of the world by management and thought. The most difficult and the most necessary lesson for a housekeeper to. learn is;. that she must assert her individuality.. It is useless to try to please everybody.' Many things in our homes are done directly with "an eye single" to oti?jpejghbj^r$v. Work must be pruned down and lopped on until it matches strength, for the latter refuses to be enlarged, by any amount of thought. . .... It is a nice point to adjust this balance properly. It requires much giving up and letting go. What shall we give up? Ay, there's the rub. Everything seems ?o important. Things must be kept clean, there is no doubt about' that; but the number of things to be kept 'clean can be greatly diminished. Wisdom would suggest the minimum consistent with comfort and refinement. In many homes there is an embarrassment of riches in the shape of conveniences and petty treasures that must be kept- in order, stealing time that might be bestowed ? with profit and satisfaction upon the1 higher things of life; people, books/ art, nature, and all the subtle ex? cellences that make/life worin living. Each must solve for' herself the ques? tion of simplifying, giving, in(; order, to enable domestic; ufe,^ ^ery;-i.wom.an^ knows her own complexity. The same things do not press with equal weight upon all. On general principles, how? ever, it is safe to say tha^*;?? " J-' "There's too much worry goes torn bonnet, There's too xducHlroSIng goeTttnt shlrti" There are too many preserves, too, many ruffles and tacks and elaboration in the making and trimming of garments, that add labor and do not add to their beauty. Woman's fetters are largely self-made. Carvings, uphplstej% ? brasses, bronzes, that cause frowns, back-aches; irritabili? ty, and heart aches, are a poor invest Iment of money and time. Things, more than people, bring women to the verge of despair. The endless round of im? agined,-'duties causes chronic overwork among women, produces the,saddest re? sults to them,and those dependant upon them for-rest" and comfort. "There is nothing in the world I dread," said the Household Philosopher, "like a thorough? ly exhausted :woman. .No-amount of personal comfort ever compensates for such a state of affairs." Of course not. What constantly tired woman is capable of generous sympathy and ready help, or of companionship ? Can she divide care and double joy ? The better part of life cries out for warmth and tender? ness ; but the women who should give it are blindly wasting themselves orx mate? rial things, polishing the" outside of the. cap without a thought of the wine with To conquer prejudice, surmount educa? tion, and overcome .habits of mind and, body, implies force of will and ^owei^of; effort. This same conquering .und over/; coming is necessaruto th?htrue>em'anci;' pation of women. An Ocean Tragedy. ? ? - A special dispatch from Liverpool to the New Yptk.Berald, says: '?Tbe corres pondenif on'b'oardiirg'the City of Chica? go, which arrived here Monday, and interviewing Purser Cavanah on. the in? cidents of the rapid and pleasant voyage, was told of a sad tragedy that occurred on the ocean. Among the many well-to do steerage passengers visiting home were Mr. and^^rscSbore, Yorkshire ?eople, returning to see' their relatives, hey bad with them five interesting chil? dren, all under twelve years of age. All had been more or less seasick on the first? two days, but on the f?cean growing smoother they soon recovered their health and spirits. On tbe third day out from Sandy Hook the mother asked the hus* I band to bring her a cup of tea. . She seemed weak and nervous, but amid the group of her little ones quite happy in attending to their wants and listening to their prattle about the novelty of their surroundings. Suddenly, while the father had left the -family, the passengers near by heard an affrighted chorus of child? ish voices crying:;"Mother! Mother! Don't I' Then the passengers saw the mother, as if she was impelled by hyste? ria, ascend the companionway as rapidly as the motion of the vessel would permit. Next, those on deck were astonished to see her rush in a frenzied manner to tbe bulwarks, step on a box and throw her? self headlong over the side of the vessel. All happened so suddenly that there was no time to intercept her. The steamer was going at full speed. Instantly a thrilling cry was heard : 'A woman overboard!' This aroused everybody. Simultaneously the bridge bell rang 'stop engines I' The vessel was stopped as soon as possible, a boat was lowered and a crew immediately pulled back into the foaming track, but uselessly. A seaman at the side of the vessel, who saw the whole thing, said: 'She never rose, sir, and went down with $51)0 in a belt around her waist.'" ? A well known engineer on the light? ning train between Charleston and Co? lumbia ran his locomotive into a line wild turkey gobbler one day last - week, near Goose Creek, and killed it instantly. The dead body of the gobbler lodged on the pilot of the engine and was recover? ed by the fireman and brought here. A select party of choice knights of the road discussed the carcass and the exploit a few evenings after. The sarao Nimrod, some time since, is credited with running into-a flock of geeze on the track and bringing down seven of the number at one shot. ? On Suuday night, August Sib, Jas? per Anderson, colored, armed with a shot? gun, hid himself on the roadside a mile below Bamberg and after remaining on picket all night succeeded on Monday morning in filling the left shoulder and breast of Ed. Summers, also colored, with buckshot. Summers is expected to die. Anderson made his escape. Jeal? ousy was the cause of the trouble. Hneklcn'n Arnica Salve.

Without economy none can be rich; with economy few need be poor. ? Mama: "Don't you think, Emma, you are getting a little too old to be playing with the boys so much ?" Em? ma: "I know it, but the older I get the better I like 'em." ?' Mrs. Lavinia Kelly, aged 93 years, died recently in Oconee. Mrs. Kelly was a remarkable woman. She received a premium for the best wood work of a one-horse wagon, pair of shoes and quilt, the work of her own hands. ? A negro girl, thirteen years old, was 1 shot and killed at White Pond, Earn well County, on the 12th by another negro' girl, while returning from church. The motive is supposed to be jealousy. The girl who committed the crime escaped and is at large. ? An attempt was made to wreck the Air Line train near Easley on the 8th by obstructing the track with cross ties. The disaster was averted by the fact that the train bad been compelled to stop to let off a telegraph lineman and had not attained its full speed when the obstruc? tions were observed. . A: -WOMAN. L . I') . from the Atlanta Constitution, "My name ia Mary Chapman, and I live at the corner of Williams and Cox streets, Atlanta. I have been a dreadful sufferer from scrofula and running, eating scrofulous ulcers for six years. Have been waited upon during the time by seven Atlanta physicians, but they failed to cure me. I also used various advertised remedies without the least benefit. While being thus treated, I grew Worse al!-tha time. Scrofulous swellings on both sides of a,jr neck?which became running, eating sores, affecting my throat, mouth and nose. Tho eating sores on my ucck were a mass of corrup? tion almost down to the bones. My throat be? came so much affected that I could scarcely swal? low, my food lodging in a portion of my throat. I lost my appetite entholy, lost my flesh, and was reduced to GO pounds weight?being a mere skele? ton. My whole system became terribly poisoned, and in a. fearful condition., In this condition, I commenced the use of B. B. B., and found great relief in the first bottle. "When I had used five bottles my health had bo much improved that the ulcers were all healed, the swelling subsided, my appetite returned, my skin became active, my strength returned, and I gained 4-1 pounds of flesh. 1 am now healthy, fat and hearty, and am ablo to do as much work as any woman, and feel as happy as a lark." Kidney Complaint. Tor over six years I faavo been a terrible sufferer from a troublesome kidney complaint, for the re? lief of which I bare spent over $230 without ben* efit, the most noted so-called remedies proving failures. Tho use of one single bottle of B. B. B. has been marvelous, giving more relief than all Other treatment combined. - It is a quick ctife, while others, if they cure at ail, tire in the distant future. C. H. ROBERTS, Atlanta Water works.

IV. O. FARMER BRO. Oct 2. 1884 12 AYER'S Hair Vigor restores, with tho gloss and freshness of youth, faded or gray hair to a natural, rich brown color, or deep black, as may bo desired. By its use light or red hair may bo darkened, thin hair thickened, and baldness often, though not always, cured. It checks falling of tho hair, nud stimu? lates a weak and sickly growth to vigor. It prevents nud cures scurf and dandruff, and heals nearly orcry disease peculiar to tho scalp/ As a Ladies' Hair Dressing, tho Vigor is unequalled; it contains neither oil nor dye, renders tho hair soft, glossy, and silken in appearance, and imparts a delicate, agreeable, and lusting perfume. Mit. C. P. BiucnnR writes from Kirhj, O.. July 3,1882: " Last fall my hair commenced falling out, and in a ?h?rt timo 1 became nearly bald. I used part of a bottle of Aykr's Hair Vigor, which stopped tho fall? ing of tho hair, nud started n new growth. I have now a full head of bnir growing vigor? ously, and nm convinced that but lor tho use of your preparation I should hare been entirely bald." iL TV. Bowen, proprietor of the ife Arthur (Ohio) Enquirer, says:" Ayer's Hair Vigor is a most excellent preparation for the hair. I speak of it from my own experience. Its use promotes tho growth of now hair, and makes it glossy and soft. Tlio Vigor is also a sure euro for dandruff. Kot within my knowledge has tho preparation ever failed to give entire satisfaction." Mr. Angus Fairbairn, leader of tho colebrated "Fairbairn Family" of Scottish Vocalists, writes from Boston, Matt., Feb. 6, 1830: "Ever since my hair began to gi vo sil? very evidence of the change which Heeling time procurcth, I have used Aykr's Hair Vigor, and so have been able to maintain anappearanco of youthfulness?a matter of considerable consequenco to ministers, ora? tors, actors, and in fact every one who lives in the eyes of tho public." Mrs. O. A. Prescott, writing from 18 Elm St~ Charlestown, Mass., April 14, 1882, snys: " Two years ago about two-thirds of my liair came off. It thinned very rapidly, and 1 was fast growing bald. On using Aykr's Hair Vigor the falling stopped and a new growth commenced, and in about a month my head was completely covered with short hair. It has continued to grow, and Is now as good as before it foil. I rogularly used but one bottle of tho Vigor, but now use it occasionally as a dressing."
