State Educational Association.


We publish below the card of the Committee, an.
nouncing STArEsvILLE, Iredell County, the place
selected for the next meeting of the State Educa-
tiona Association, and urging full attendance on
the occasion of the members of the Association and
of the friends generally of education in North Car
olina. We sincerely trust that the meeting may be
full one, and that much good to the noble of
education may result. This is cause common and
dear to all, and which calls and constantly calls
for highest appreciation and best Efforts
Friends of education! let us determine that the
Statesvile Convention shall be the fullest and most
useful Convention of the kind yet held in the State
Let make preparations in time to attend it.
We must incur some sacrifices of time and means,
and must labor in this with enthusiasm and
energy; otherwise paramount is to other causes,
it will not advance as it should, and as we all desire
to see it advance. -------
For the Standard.
Annual Meeting of the Educational Associa-
tion of North-Carolina.
The undersigned, Executive Committee of "The
Educational Association Of North. Carolina" in &C
cordance with the power vested in them by the
Constitution have selected STATEsv1LLE as the place
of the next annual meeting
The time of the meeting is fixed by the Constitu-
tion on the first Wednesday in July and the
season is one of comparative leisure and the place
healthy and accessible, it is hoped there will be
large attendance of members and of others desiring
to join the Association. The people Of Statesvi!ie
in public meeting, have generously rendered the
hospa(ties of the place to the Association; and all
the Railroads in the State will pass delegates for
fare. The Western Extension (Railroad) will be
finished, it is hoped Statesville by the fifth of
July; and if the Cars should not be running so far,
there will be ample means for the conveyance of
delegates from the terminus of the Road to States
vile.
By committee appointed for that purpose, four
persons will be selected to deliver essays educa-
tona subjects, and two to deliver popular addresses;
and among other subjects of great interest coming
up for general discussion, will be aplan for a cheap
system of Normal Schools.
Officers and Teachers of Common Schools-Pro-
fessors in Colleges, and Teachers in every class o
schools, and all friends of education in North Caro-
lima, whether members of the Association not
are earnestly and cordially invited to attend
Statesvie, situated nearly at the foot of the
mountains, among thrifty and intelligent people
and in high and salubrious region, offers many at
fractions for a summer excursion, to those who live
in the middle southern and eastern portions of thu
State; and the friends of education in the piedmon
and mountain counties where the facilities for trave
not great, will perceive that the place Of meet
ing is brought to them as circumstances will
permit.

Recent British outrages.

The recent course of British men. war, searching
American merchant vessels in the Gulf of Mexico,
the pretext that said vessels engaged in the
African slave trade, is exciting deep indignation in
this country Congress is moving in the matter,
resolutions having been passed calling on the Presi.
dent to know if further legislation is necessary to
protect American vessels in that quarter.
On Saturday last meeting of ship owners and
ship masters was held in New York, at which the
following resolutions were adopted. ,.. O.. ..
"Resolced, That Congress should assist the ad-
minstration to enforce retribution for every high
handed wrong, so as to render the American name
a terror throughout the world.
Resolped, That ''our flag covers the cargo" whe
ther that cargo consists of niggers or nothng ane
that "freedom from search" is an Americans ina-
enable right at sea- as much freedom from the
intrusion of foreign policemen in our domicils on
shore"
That has the ring of the true metal. The Ameri.
people will never consent that British officers
shall search their merchant vessels. s.s
The Richmond Enquirer closes an able article on
this subject, as follows:
"But whatever may be the cause, the pretext. or
the consequence, British aggression has reached a
point which leaves no room for forbearance even
for compromise
The British government must be held to strict
account for the gross outrages perpetrated by its
naval officers. refusal to disavow such acts, and
to make proper repara;ion, accompanied by any
persistence in authorisng or permitting violence to.
wards the American flag we do not hesitate to say,
will furnish just and necessary cause OF war;"

For some months but two trains had been run
on this road, the express and the mail, the lat
ter carrying some $50 tons of coal daily, and
the former taking all other freight, until few
weeks since, when a coal train was started
Now, about 500 tons pass over the road daily.
the coal train being about 800 tons, and the
mail train, (besides other freight) carrying $50
to 200 tonsi and besides these, every two or
three days an extra coal train is run, carrying
some 800 tons more.
The amount of Lake Superior iron ore ship
ped over the road, to the furnaces in the Maho-
ming Valley is quadruple that sent last year,
and the general freight business is also largely
IN excess.
1t is probable that the nett receipts OF the
road for the present year will exceed those of
the last by at least SO per cent
