and honorable men who started

possessed with fixedness ol purpose
and high aim.
1 will stop to mention a lew
more eases, whoro tho principles
woro onmmg from the people:

father's brickyard; Mr. Option, his
partner, commenced his life as errand
boy at $1.50 per week. Cliae.
M. Schwab was a mnil boy and
clerk in a country store at $10 per
month and board, now he is at the
head of an industry employing
45,000 men, but be was a vigorous
worker and self-reliant.
J no. 'D. Rockefeller, the richest
man in Amorica, was the son of a
farmer in poor circumstances, and
it wan necessary for him to hire
himself out several Hummers i.)
order to earn his way.
Girls, would you liko to he president
of the United StutCB? ThuTsi
was tho daughter of an obscure
huckster, but by her indomnitable
will, she evercanie hitherto
insurmountable obstacles, and is
now Empress of China with her
100 million people. She overcame
more than you would have
to, to rule this country. Can I
not incite some of you to heroic
deeds?
To the parents of these children
J would hold up tho possibilities
of your child developing into a
man or woman whoso name will i
be known throughout tho land for
the good done in its generation.
Would you have thorn succoed ; to
attain to usefulness, to honor, to'
character? Then use your inllu- j
once to guide thoir ste].H, and aid
tho school teachers in thoir ollorts
being made hero by the State and
mill to incite their ambition and '
arouse their understanding to the
possibilities within their grasp.
Were this n political meeting, I|
could excitedly haranguo on the
calamities consequent of the indif- ;
teronce of the whites on one h nd
and the zeal ot the negroes on the !
other in getting I lie benefits of the j
schools which are open free to your
ehildron. Lord Kacon said "Knowl*
o<i?io in power.7' Nothing is truer.
The educated are always hujunior |
to t lu; ignorant. Not neCeHnarily a
college ^duration, for a largo per* |
centago of our moot HucceHsful men, |
as I have shown you wore not, Sut.j
th?y must ho oducated; self-odwa*1
tod if neeoHsary.
"A delightful task t<> to a eh the

teaching insures to the child, while
its mind ia gradually unfolding,
patience and unending efforts till
at Homo unbxpefted moment the
little one lisps, "Mamma," Were
it possime to transier 10 tne scnooi
room this tender interest, tins absorbing
anxiety, a revolution in
child teaching would bs inaugurated.
But it is impossible to do thin1
The teacher occupies a different
rolntion to the child, and the child
lia? passed that period in its life.
Nevertheless the successful teaching
involves the same unfaggiug
interest and consuming anxiety.
Do not become discouraged with

or the dullness of a pupil.
Liebig, the greater chemist of
the 19th century, was un illustrious
dunce ; Guidi, the great painter
was another; Chattertou was
sent home an u foOl "of whom
nothing could be made;" Isaaci
Barrow, a celebrated mathema-j
tieian, Dean Swift "plucked ;"j
Sheridan was an incorrigible dunce; I
Chalmers, one of Great Britain's j
moat noted pulpit orators; .Ino.'
Howard, the philanthropist; Win.
Jones distinguished himself in In-'
dia as a judge; Kobt. Burns was aj
dull learner at school; Wellington!
was characterized by Ins mother as
dunce.; Napoleon was a dull scholar;
Grant was termed by his mother
as "useless;" Clive, the heavenly;
born general, was a "dunce" in |
school; and last but not least in
thia long roll of ''blockheads" was
Walter {Scott, of whom liis teacher,
l'rol. Dalzell, said that "Dunce lie
is and dunce he will remain."
And boys, if theie are any here
who consider themselves as suiter-1
ing under the cabalistic nonsense|
of the prerogative bov of senius.
I toll you to put it aside. The
author of "Sid f*formation," a work
full of inspiration and ripo wisdom,
in reviewing this question said:
4,Jf T were to commence life |
anew, ] should choose to hegin it as 1
a "dunce" rather than an a hoy of
genius."
Teachers, let me admonish you
of your responsibilities. The pitiful
pay you roceivo in money must
not he the motive that directs your ;
footstops to the sehool room. If
you do not love your work, ahanJ
