THE TRAINING OF OUR TEACHERS.
There are about twenty-five hun
dred white teachers in the free public
schools of this State. The negro
teachers are about thirteen hundred.
There are five or six normal schools,
or normal departments, in which five
or six hundred negro teachers are well
taught and trained for services in the
school room. Some of these negro
normal schools have been in operation
twenty years. Most of these institu
- tions derive their support from out
ie sources, only the one at. Claflin,
perhaps, being assisted by the State.
t Claflin there is a normal college
open to negroes of both sexes.
The Winthrop Training School,
Columbia, under the control of the
city school board, graduated, last May,
sftera one year's course, eight young
ladies. The last Legislature appro
priated to this school fifty-one hun
dred dollars to defray the expenses
of one young lady teacher from each
county. The State University will
open this fall a normal college for
young men. The State makes no
other provision for professional train
ing di white teachers, though the con
stitution says there shall be a normal
college which shall be open to all per
.onswhomay wishto become teachers.
For several years State normal in
9 'tes were held. These have been
disontanued. Now the law allows
each county to appropriate two hun
dred dollars a year for the support of
county normal institutes. We have
no means of knowing how much of
the $6,800, which may be spent, is ap
propriated in this way each year.
Questions of economy are now in or
der. We are prompted to inquire if
some more economical and at the
same time wider reaching plan of
training our white teachers can not
be found.
The $5,100 given the Winthrop
Taining School, added to such sum
as may confidently expected from
the=Peabody Fund, would support a
a u ot normal college, in which
-young teachers could be prepared.
As to the training of the teachers now
at work the law should require that
an institute be held in every county
every year, and that every teacher
must attend. Why not elect a State
Superitendentof Education who can,
or will, conduct such institutes? Why
not elect county school commis
sioners who can, orwil, assist in these
institntesWhy pay State and coun
ty ""np endnents- and then pay oth
er men to do the work these superin
tezdents ought to. do?
Yelow Feter in Florida.
Florida is infected with that terri
'he plague, yellow fever, and the State
- quarantind. The mails are fumi.
gated as soon as they get out of Flor
da, and, no passengers from that
State areallowed to enter any of the
coist cities of North and South Caro
lina untlthey have been out of Flor
ida fif teen days. Every effort is mak
ing to check the fever, but it is feared
thatit will gain a firm foothold.
It is suppoedto have been brought
into Florid from Cuba, by the fine
line of steamers running between Ha
vana and Tampa.
Sn Jacksonville, last Monday, there
were twenty-five cases of fever, and
four deaths in all bad occurred.
-Charleston and Savannah are both
gdi' quarantined, and iisexpected
that the fever will be kept out of
tlese'cities.
'The ciiuzi of Florida, who are
.bae to do so, are leaving the State as
last as they can.
'The Txxrs does not take kindly to
tally yous T L Mcell Pub
lsher Woman's Work, Atlanta, Ga.,"
is sending out. Our rule is: "'well
known and reliable houses, and cash
with order."
Charleston is maing preparations
for her annual gala week, which will
probably be about the first of Octo
ber. The pblic may expect a fine
-time, a bgtime, and a pleasant time.
What Chretnundertakes she
anakes a success of.
Some of the Democrats of Charles
ton have gotten up a petition (a
"Prayer to Tiiuan," the .News and
orrier calls it) asking Tillmnan to re
turn to Charleston to address them.
The petitioners charge ring rule, un
equal taxation, political combination,
etc., and it smacks considerably of in
dependentism. There is at present4
in this State but little difference be
tween an Independent, a Greenback
er, and a Radical. If there are differ-'
ences among our people, as to the
management of affairs, it must be
fought within the party lines, if it
takes-a decade to do it. Democracy
must rule.
eonsiderable interest is manifested,
through thisajudicial circuit, in the election
efa solicitor. John S. Wilson, Esq., of
Manning, will go into the convention with
the best hand. He has the six delegates
from Clarendon and the six from George
town pledged to stand by him as long as
he thinks there is a shadow of a chance of
his election. ,Williansburg's eight dele
gates will support Ms Gilland, and Sum
ter's ten. will support a Sumter man-. Six
teen votes are necessary to a choice, so M~r.
Wilson needs only four more to get the
nomination:.
In the recent- primary election in Aiken
county, Paul W. McCreery, a candidate for
sherif, received only 188 Totes out of a to
tal of 2,7C4 votes cast. In the last number
of the Aiken Recorder he thanks his friends
for their cordial support, and announces
himself a candidate for sheriff in the elec
Teachers' Institute.
Our report of the daily exercises of the
Inter-County Institute, embraced its pro
gress up to and including Tuesday night,
at which time we went to "press."
The program of Wednesday was very
much of the same character, and covered
the same field as the previous days, elabo
rating the exercises of course, and spread
ing out in every department the beauties and
excellencies of each, and holding up the
defective systems of the present and a by
gone time, for cautious avoidance by the
teachers assembled. All, however, was not
smooth sailing along here, fora while. The
following query found in the question
box elicited lively discussion, and
for a time the literary skirmishing
was heard pretty well all along the lines.
It was this in substance if not in words:
"Is the spelling of the present time notably
worse than in years gone by; and if so,
why?" As previously declared, some of the
brightest sallies and the stoutest defences
of the week came up then. Dr. Joynes,
whose graceful manner despite his years.
combatted the idea of a too conclusive use
of the system of objective teaching to the ut
ter neglect of the older methods, which
bore such good fruit as evidenced by the
superior spelling of that day. With a terse
yet fluent flow of the purest English,
wherein lay some points hard to gainsay
or answer successfully, he reviewed the
subject and left something to employ the
thoughts of others who did not concur in
the opinions expressed.
Prof Morrison, of Greenville, an excel
lent scholar and a close reasoner, followed
Dr. Joynes in reply and in advocacy of the
system of object teaching, and laid open to
the audience by force of argument and by
apt illustrations the simple plans but far
reaching benefits to be derived from a
thorough and intelligent use of them, and
more especially showing them adapted to
the weak and unexpanded faculties of little
children, in presenting to them occular les
sons, or instruction through the eye, before
the reasoning powers are suficiently de
veloped to take in the subject matter, by
any process of reasoning.
Prof. Stokes joined in the discussion inci
dentally, as opportunity would offer during
his lectures, and gave the Doctor in turn
something to occupy his thought. All at
length came around very pleasantly and de
cided that while the old system had its ben
efits, so had the new, and the safer plan is
to retain what is good in both, and to teach
them together in the schools. Prof. Stokes's
instructions and lectures evinced a high or
der of teaching qualities, and that most im
portant and indispensable one to ultimate
success, understanding himself what he as
sayed to teach others. We feel assured that
no teacher at the institute, who followed
him closely, can say aught than that they
were greatly benefitted by the very simple
yet extremely practicable methods so fully
laid before them. No vague theories these,
but plans that the best teachers and the
most interested and zealous instructors of
the day have given their time, talent, and
attention to perfect.
The sleepy noontide recesses, with the
thermometer struggling to reach 100 degrees,
was broken by pleasant surprises, such as
iced lemonades and watermelons; drawing
out, of course, expressions of gratitude from
the beneficiaries, who were numerous.
Space and time would fail us in the attempt
to enumerate every feature of the institute,
worthy of mention. Everything was pleas
ing, and every body pleased. The evening
lectures from one of the three professors
before mentioned were, on each occasion,
"a feast of reason and a flow of soul."
The audiences were large, attceivo, and as
we hear on all sides highly edified. Nor
was this all: the good people of of Manning,
wishing the visiting teachers to carry home
with them pleasant reminiscences of their
stay decided in a happy moment to give
them a reception and entertainment in the
court house. This took place on Friday
evening, and contributed very greatly to
the pleasure of the week, and furnished an
occasion of festivity, just such as was need
ed to usher in the sad and "good-bye" Sat
urday morn. Many new friends have been
made; the social hours flew swiftly by; and
at last came the end when the curtain had
to be dropped. The professors each took
leave with kindly feelings of regret and
thanks for attention shown them; and with
a tap of the bell the Inter-County Institute,
passed into memory and into the school
history of the country, But of the results:
who will undertake to calculate them?
Teachers have gone home with bounding]
impulses to emulate; and replete with ar
dor and determination to set aright some
school room, far in the cotntry perhaps, and'
there the influences will spread~ around.
Like the pebble thrown into the lake, it be
comes agitated and spreads its ripples to1
the further shore. Some author has said:
"The written or printed words are thoughts
embalmed." Even so: so such exercises;
they sink deep into the mind, and fnd a
lasting place of abode.
English Professor at Wofrord.
SPRTAn3tRGsv, August 10.-At a meeting
held on August 8 the trustees elected Prof.
A. W. Long to fill the chair of the English
language and literature in Wofford College.
Prof. Long is a native of North Carolina,
an A. M. graduate of the State University
at Chapel Hill, has made the study of En
glish a specialty, and for two and a half
years filled the chair of English in Trinity
College, giving eminent satisfaction, He
resigned the chair at Trinity to pursue the
course of English of Johns Hopkins Uni
versity. He comes to us fully endorsed by
the president and professor of English of
Johns Hopkins as a man of varied attain
ments and specially equipped for the chair
to which he has bcen elected. Eminent.
ministers and educators testify to his pos
session of moral and intellectual capabili
ties which premise much usefulness to the
College and to the Church.
Gov. Richardson has borrowed $50,000
at 6 per cent. from the Charleston banks
with~ which to pay pension claims. The
$50000 a.ppropriated by the Legislature
has all been paid out since April 1st. At
this rate it will take nearly one hundred
and fifty thousand dollars annually to pay
the pension clams.
Alderman Barkelcy, president of the Eu
tawville Railroad, recently returned from
the North,. where he has contracted for the
sixteen miles of steel rail necessary to com
plete tho road to Sumiter. The rails will be
delivered early in .the fall, together with
two additional passenger coaches and one

have also been ordered for the road.-Xcs

Geutlemen:-This past summer my
wife was away on a two months' visit.
On her return home she had a wretch
ed cold, which, growing worse, caused
me to call in a physician. He attend
ed her several weeks without benefit
ing her. She, knowing the splendid
effect S. S. S. had on me, determined
to test it in her case. At that time
she had copious and disagreeable dis
charges from the left nostril. Before
the first bottle of S. S. S. was used up
she was much better, and a few addi
tional bottles set her all right.
It is remarkable that S. S. S. is
good for colds and sore throats. A
few months ago, I was troubled occa
sionally with my throat from preach
ing. I carried a bottle of Swift's
Specific with me on tne circuit.
Whenever my throat became irritated
and annoyed me I would take a dose
of S. S. S. just before retiring, and on
awakening I would be well.

A Frog Waked Up.
For.nsrov, Aug. 7.-Mr. Editor Dear Sir:
Did you see that Frog rised up in the 'For
eston Fragment, on 17th July, and attempt
ed to show us that B. L. Prince is not intitle
to-the honor confered upon him, by empt
ing his Bag of untrue. The first faulce he
told, was, that B. L. Prince was the least
concerned being simply a member of Said
church, when he B L. P is a member and
live Stewart of Pine Grove church, and al
so a Trustee, and Teacher of the Sunday
School of Pine Pine Grove A. M. E. church
As to the few dimes, we would like for Frog
to let us know what he does call a few
dimes, as he knows so much about it. If
he will tell us how meny dimes he has con
tributed, we would know when we contrib
bute meny dimes. Now a faulce without
end, is, "that B. L. Prince put forth no ef
forts to the Said Building" is a notorious
faulce, and can be proved by any responci
ble membor much less the Officers of Fine
Grove A. M. E. Church, and Readers can
refer to them at any time. Now Mr. Edit
or, wLy that Frog Jumpt at B. L. P. in such
way we can't tell. and Frog you, when you
rise again, please tell B. L. Prince what he
done to you, as everybody is so much sur
prise, to see such uncalled for Article. If
Frog done so much that he thinks he should
have credit, he ought to demand it and not
try to take away some body's who worked
and em theirs. Now if any one .desire to
know whether these saying are so or not,
they can refer to the secretary of Pine
Grove A. M. E. Church or any one of the
Orficers of the above church and whether,
he pit forth any efforts toward the Fores
ton A. M. E. building or not, and who lift
and paid 'ut the amt from Pine Grove, on
the said building, and also who have got
in hand the receipt to show what has been
paid out on the said building. Men ought
to be more carfull how they strikes at an
other for no cause and let what they say be
true. If B. L. P. is not made foeman by
the bord of building committee, we can
find it out by refring to them. We learnd
that Rev. Thomas Brown, on Sept3rd, 1887.
formed a committee of (7) to meet at Fores
ton S. C. for the perpose of building a Par
sonage, and church at Foreston conecting
with Pine Grove, and Biggers A. M. E.
church, that committee rallaed to the call,
though he not being present him self, "the
committee argreed." and commence their
arrangement, they take in two more mem
bers. That committee was composed of
Sumtor Burgos, Sydny Burgos, of Biggers
A. M. E. Chu. Simon Houston, Elie King,
of Foreston, Strapan Pendergrass, B. L.
Prince, Sam Simon of Pine Grove. of this
committee B. L. Prince was made foeman,
and Simon Houston assistance.
The Anual Conferenc soon came on and
they could not do much, on account of get
ing evrything ready for the conference,
"but keep evrything still moving." and af
ter conference was over Rev. C. F. Brogdon
come in. He asked committee to please
hurrow and provid away for him and fami
ly as soon as possible which they did, and
soon had him and family in the Parsonage.
B. L. P. took Strapan Pendergrass, went
up to Mr. Land & Mason get them to order
some Furniture, went and saw the Stewart
esses, got them to come and fixed up the
House and soon B. L. P. took his Horse
and wagon. gethered up all the provision
in his sezion carred it to him and told him
to live and and preach. And he is doing
so find, that he is allmost too fat to preach.
the wether being so worm. So Frog, when
you rise again please come a little near the
truth, Idont like to talk with alman so far
from the Road, you being a stranger. Please
pardon me for calling you Frog and you
name is P. "but I only called you that" be
cause P. Stands for Poles and Tadpoles are

The course of instrunction, embracing ten years, is designed to furnish a
liberal education suited to the ordinary vocations of life, or to fit students for
the Freshman, Sophomore, or Junior class of colleges.
PLAN OF INSTRUCTION.
The most approved text books are used. The blackboard is deemed an
essential in the class room. The meaning of an author is invariably required
of each pupil. In all work done, in whatever department, and whatever the
extent of ground covered, our motto shall always be THoBoUGmmrss. To this
end, eve shall require that every lesson be learned, if not in time for the class
recitation, then elsewhere. No real progress can be made so long as the
pupil is allowed to go on from day to day reciting only half-perfect lessons.

Primary Department (3 years' course),................... $1.00, $1.50, and $2.00
Intermediate Department (2 years' course),.. ......... ............2.50

TO PATRONS.
We desire especially to urge upon parents and guardians the great im
portance of having their children at school promptly the first day. The stu
dent who enters late labors under serious disadvantages, and seldom takes
that stand in his class that otherwise he would have taken.
The Principals feel much encouraged at the hearty support given the
school heretofore, and promise renewed efforts to make the school what it
should be-FIRST CLASS in every respect.
