A company has been formed in Charleston for the purpose of starting a barrel factory. Rice, turpentine and oil barrels will first bc m a tra factored, but the company propose to gradually extend their field and manufacture ! other articles in that Hoe.

As an examination for teachers will be heid on the 6th of next month, and teachers will be examined io Spelling. Reading, Fenmanship, Arithmetic, Geography, Grammar, History, The? ory and Practico of Teaching, and Physiology and ITygeine, rt will be weil- -for those who expect to appear before the Board to make ?ome -spe? cial preparation for this examination. In spelling it is our planto submit twenty-five words lo be spelled, marking according to the number of words misspelled. We never select ratty catch words, but they aro such as should be 'known. We herewith .subjoin a list of words for spelling, Trout which teachers may find, possi bryj-scrrae of the words which will be selected. Our method of examination in penmanship and reading differs some? what from the old way of examina? tion in those branches. These two branches are very important, yet, doubtless, receive foss attention than any others.

How many teachers in the State ? could answer "Yes" to the quest-ion j always asked in some States in exam? inations for certificates to teach, "Do you take an educational journal ?" In those States, too; if a teacher should chance tb hz fon nd who is so dead as not to take and read some journal of education, he -receives but little consideration from those who work with an honest, earnest purpose, unless he awakes and makes for him? self a place in the ranks of genuine j workers. Do not allow yourselves to ? remain in the well-worn ruts. Be tip j and doing. Read the journals de-' ?.yeted to your work, and not only prea'd them but carry the many good j things which they contain into your school room and apply them to the day's duties. New ideas work like charra ia securing and keeping the at? tention of the class. Search for the best plans and make them your own. In educational journals you will find true helpers. Take them, read them, and strive to make yourself worthy of your position.- Carolina Teacher. - i^? I I mm - A Nut to Crack in Grammar. A Georgia debating society dis? cussed the questions 'Did Zeke Slade's to'bacco barn bum up or down. It was decided that it did. What do the readers of the VV. and S. say ? Questions. What is the celebrated Achilles puzzle ? What is Mollaglascov. Its origin. The news of a morning fire in New York readies San Francisco before daylight. Explain. What are Pestalozzis main princi? ples in teaching ? "Method vs. Scholarship." Who of our readers will volunteer to discuss the pros and cons of 'Meth? od vs. Scholarship/ in teaching. Both are essential elements in the make-up of the qualifications of good teacher ; but which has the as? cendancy, or which has the tendency to ascendancy ? At the last meetiog of the Woman's Christian Temperance.Union of Green? ville, S. C., tt?e following resolutions were passed : Resolved, That we, as W. C. T. U. women of this country, deplore the use of the pictures of women on the advertisements of whiskey and tobacco, and we pledge ourselves to use our voice against it, for we believe it to be an in? suit to all pure women, also an injury to the advancement of good morals. Postmaster Mowry has received a letter in which it is mentioned that in? formation is desired concerning Kitty Harrell, daughter of Josiah T. Harrell. She is supposed to have married a planter near Charleston. If she, or her heirs, will write to Mr. John Mc? Dougall, 47 Carondelet street, New Orleans, La., they will hear of some? thing to their advantage Charleston ATews and Courier, F?k. 29. The New York Herald continues to expose the 'trusts' and combinations. The latest is a triple beaded combine of the makers of watch cases, makers of works and jewelry jobbers to keep up prices to a specified standard. Another 'trust' is that of the three leading spool thread manufacturers of the country who are working together to maintain prices. Mr. W. L. Bass, of Kingstree, has invented a type-writer. It is claimed that his machine is made on a much simpler pian than others, and that it can be manufactured at about one-third of their cost. Another advantoge will be that it will require only ordinary type, thus makiog it possible to use any style of type desired ic the same block. The type can be changed with very little trouble and at merely a nominal ex? pense. Our Exchanges. .Peterson's Magazine for April comes, as usual/among the very earliest of the moa th's periodicals, and is one of the most interesting and welcome. The steel-plate wood-engrav? ings, and dress patterns are all of superior merit, and the literary portion of the maga? zine deserves the highest praise. This friend of countless households for so many years is still as thoroughly to be depended on as when it begun its popular career. It never fails, each twelvemonth, to bring forward new at? tractions in its literary, fasb'on, .'.od house? hold department. While retaining old favor? ites, ''Peterson" constantly finds new writers of promise; and, in all matters connected with dress and needlework, it contrives to render itself more and more i a dispensable to ladies. It is a live, first-class magazine, np to the needs of the time in every respect, and this is the secret of its ever-growing popu? larity. Terms: Two Dollars a year.
