The great Dr. Johnson was once asked, who was tlie moBt miserable man, the reply of the sage was: /'That man who can not read on a rainy day." What a volume of truth in u single sentence ! Indeed it is a solid truth (hat the man wiio has re sources within himself for happiness, is happier and more contented than the one who seeks his happiness from sources without. Hence the gieat Hohei t Hall speaks the truth : "The man who can read, and possesses a taste for reading, can lind Bufllcient entertainment at home ; the man who can uot, is tempted to repair to the nubile bouse for entertainment/' It 1s indeed a a&d fact that we of the South ase not a reading people, and Jtaow acaxeely scything that trans pire* cateide ?X oar Immediate range t*S obearratfoa. Win we eter correct oar ?egliganco? Mb, Editob:?In the expression, "Thore is an evil genius that shapes our ends rough, hew thorn as we may," how should "rough" be parsed? If it read, "There is a divinity that shapes our ends niaely," the word at tiic close would refer to tho verb ''shapes," but you could not say that 'ro*gh" was on adverb, could jou? Yet it evidently modifies the meaning of tho verb instead of the noun preceeding it. Is not this the meaning, "which shapes our ends so that they are rough," the ends ami not the manner of shaping, being rough? Ikqumkr. According to your way of quoting the expression with a comma after ?'rough," the word "lough" would ? evidently he parsed as an adverb. Webster jays "rough" is an adverb, and Sir Walter Scott uses the word with that meaning in the following seuteuce; "Sleeping rough in the trenches, and dying stubbornly in iheir boats." But according to our way of thinking our fair "Inquirer" has misquoted the passage. Shakes peare has it thus : "There is a divin ity that shapes our ends rough?hew thuiu how we will." We will be very glad to bear from "Inquirer" again ami if we cant't give satisfactory an* ewes, we will insert in tho column und call loudly for help. Mr. Eorroa :?In answer to the question in the list issue of the Dm ocrat, in regard to the parsing of "worth" io the sentence, "That knife is worth a dollar," 1 would call "worth" an adjective, modifying "knife," as il expresses a quality which can be alleged of a noun, and modi lied by an adverb. There is a similar sentence in Smith's Gram mar?"That knife is richly worth a dollar," c*c. I wil be glad to hear the opinions of other teachers. Whose Wall Maps are he.d to use in teaching Cornell's sericaofGeog raphy? Ikquiukb. K. Stelgar, ITcw York, can tarnish descriptive catalogues and price lists "of (Hobes, Wall Mans, and school 'furniture, on application. In a call for a Teachers' Conven tion in Laurens County, lbs teachers nro urged to attend, and the following hovel idea is given them : "It is not, therefore, a matter of option with teachers io the employ ment of the State, and receiving its t?nds, whether to attend ita Conven tion or not, na thoy may happen to (eel at thu lime ; hut in the opinion o! those connected w'uk the manage ment of oor educational system it is the obvious duty of Teachers, who respect the aathoritj of the State, to lay ttftida everything eise, dos? np tbV?r. acheotworos, and make every pwwon&Ma feaet&ct 13 be present da ring tea taeftfone."

A* an Independent Organ of Christian ity and Methodism, the Neighbor seeks to establish Peso? in its Divinely ap pointed nupremacy In the Household, the School, the Church, the State and the World. The number of the present generation, who believe with the early disciples of Christ, that Christianity and War arc contrary, one to the other, is hopefully on the increase. In aid of the further recstablisbmcnt of this faith and prac tice of Primitive Christians, the Neigh bor continues an unswerving advocate.
