Ought Dancing to be Encouraged?
A Question for superintendent.

Mr.. EDITOR 1t is becoming notori-
Gus that persons who are teachers in our
schools, and who are regularly Licensed to
teach therein, are in the habit of attend
ing assemblies for the purpose of dancing,
from the public hall down to the merest
junket.
Now dancing, Of Itself, is, perhaps, not
so very immoral or injurious. But the
evil lies in the concomitants, the society
thrown together, wherein there is always
a smart sprinkling of persons given to
every form of RIGHTEOUSNESS. But DO
not propose to discuss the morality of
! the practice now. If we look about, we
shall be unable TO point to a man addict
ed to dancing who is employed as a
teacher. Have the public discarded them
because Of their habits, or have they so
neglected the cultivation of the intellect
by habits of dissipation that they are
totally unfit for the high vocation of
teachers of our youth? Either way, the
conclusion is inevitable that dancing de-
moralizes the mind, tends to frivolity.
draws towards the borders of licentious-
ness, and is entirely at war with the hab-
Its OF thought requisite in a teacher.
And if our dancing men are exclu-
ded from the occupation of teach
ing, ought females of the same stamp
to be employed by virtue of the priv
ileges of their sex? Or ought they,
too, to understand that if they choose
the company Of rumies and rowdies and
join in their amusements, if they choose
to educate their heels at the expense Of
their brains, why they can do so, but they
do it with the understanding that they
can have no employment in the public
schools.
IL seems to me pertinent question,
ought superintendents to license such
persons to teach ? This question has
lately been agitated by institutes and
conventions, and that it will be made a
test ere long is probable. And what is
the church doing? Are they seriously
opposing the tide of immortality that is
feafully spreading, or are they winking
at the evil snd shutting their eyes to the

Local Items.

THErr.-A young man from Green's
boro by the name Of Reed was arrested,
and tried before Justice French Of Glov-
er, last Tuesday, charged with stealing
turkeys, chickens, and many other small
articles too numerous to mention. He
was found guilty, fined S12 and costs, and
giving security for the same, was dis
charged.
FIFE IN CHARLEsToY.-A saw mill
belonging to Erastus Buck of East
Charleston was destroyed by fire on the
morning Of the 9Th instant. The fire
originated from pile of waste wood
near the mill. This had been burned
the evening before and was supposed to
be entirely extinguished. The mill which
had been recently repaired was not in
sured. Loss nearly $1,000.
REVIVAL ~ IRAsBURGH.-We hear
of quite a revival in this town taking
place in what is called the Brighton
neighbOrhood. Some twenty or more
persons have expressed themselves as
INDUCING hope of pardon. Meetings
were commenced in that district few
weeks ago by Rev. C. S. Roberts and
Rev Z. Pettingill, and since that time
they have held three or four every week.
The converts are mostly young people,
although some backsliders have been re-
claimed and brought again into the fold
of the Good Shepherd. May they cru
city Him not again.

FIRE IN STANsTEAD.-We learn that
the house, barns, and outbuildings, be-
longing to Hon. I. Lee Terrill of STAN
stead, were consumed by fire on last Sat
urday evening, together with one hum
bred tons Of hay, one thousand BUSHELS
of wheat, a large amount of oats, pota-
toes, &c, and nine fat hogs. A small
portion of the furniture and clothing was
saved. Loss $4,000; insured for $4,000.
ORLEANS LIBERAL INsTITUTE.-The
fall term of this institution closed Oh
Tuesday the 18th inst, with an exhibit
ton in the evening, which We understand
was quite creditable TO all who engaged
in its exercises. We learn from the
published catalogue that the school has
had eighty-six students during the term
just closed, which number, considering
the many high schools and academies in
the county, speaks well for its popular
ity.
CO Sir David Brewster is reported
to have said, in April last, that there
were fifteen miles of snow between the
earth and the sun. From the quantity of
rain we have had within the last two
months, we should judge that about six
and a half miles of thai snow had melt
ed and fallen to the earth.
F1RE.-The Store occupied by A.
Barry, at South Potion, c. E., was burn
ed one day last week, together with
the principal part of its contents. The
extent of the loss is as yet unknown
though it is reported that the insurance
is more than sufficient TO balance the
whole.

interests of the school, and the valuable
results of his fidelity were eonspicuously
apparent, TO the credit of himself, his as

especially there was evidence of thorough
drilling and hard study. The rhetorical
exercises were also of a high order o
merit, much higher indeed than hav,
ever before been presented in that schoo
room. They were characterized by
maturity and sobriety of thought which
contrasted very fayorably with the com

BJ~HEADAcHE is the fayorite sign by which
nature makes known any deviation whatever
from the natural state of the brain, and view
ed in this light it may be looked On as a safe
guard intended 10 give notice of disease which
might otherwise escape attention, till TOO late
10 Dc remedied; and its indications should
never be neglected. Headaches may be class
ifed sunder two names, viz: Symptomatic
and Idiopathic. S~ymptomatic Headache is
exceedingly common and is the precursor
Of a great variety of diseases, among which
are Apoplexy, Govt, Rheumatism and all
febrile diseases. In its nervous form 1t IS
sympathetic Of disease Of the stomach, COLI
stituting sick headache, of heptic disease con-
stituting bilious headache, OF worms, constl-
patton and other disorders of the bowels. as
well as renal and uterine affections. Dis
eases of the heart are very frequently attend-
ed with Headaches; An3mia and plethora
are also affections which frequently occasion
headache. Idiopathic Headache is also very
common, being usually distinguished by the
name of nervous headache, sometimes COM
ing On suddenly in a state Of apparently
sound health, and prostrating at once the
mental and physical energies, aud in other
instances it comes on slowly, heralded by
depression OF spirits or acerbity of temper
In most instances the pain is IN the front Of
the head, over one or both eyes, and some
times provoking vomiting under this class
may also be named Neuralgia.
For the treatment Of either class Of Head
ache the Cephalic Pills have been found a
sure and safe remedy, relieving the most
acute pains IN a few minutes, and by its sub
tie power eradicating the diseases Of which
Headache is the u~nerring index.
