The undersigned, Executive COMMITTEES Of the
State Educational Association of N G., would here
by give notice that the next annual meeting of the
Association will not be held until some time during
the ensuing Fall - -, -<s,ss.y.4,,
later than usual for this meeting by reasons which
they regard as entirely satisfactory; but they DO
not deem it necessary to give these reasons inde-
tail now. and will only allude to few of the lead
ing considerations which have had an influence in
forming their determination. In the first place, by
holding the meeting near midsummer, important
sections Of the State are virtually excluded from
the privilege of inviting the Association to meet in
their midst, as a number of the delegates do not
like to 90 far East or South at this season of the
year. - -, ~ ''.5'@
Secondly, it is impossible to fix . time for the
meeting when there will be vacation in all the
schools: and to hold the meetings to suit those
teachers whose schools not in session, is to con-
fine the active membership Of the Association to a
part only of its friends. -,
Thirdly, the last meeting ordered such large
amount Of business to be prepared for the action Of
the next, that the Committees having it in charge
should be allowed the longest possible time
Fourthy, it is very desirable that the officers Of
the Common School System should attend the meet
inys of the Association, and this they do more
conveniently during the Fall than about the time Of
harvest

Mr.. EDITOR: After getting through with the bu-
siness in our meeting to-day at Pleasant Grove
Academy, we gave way for speeches to be made.
when Mr.. W. H. Lambert took the stand, and made
an able and conservative speech in defence of the
Union, in defence of the South, and in defence of
the great national Democratic party He was not
in pursuit of Office neither did he ever expect it;
but wished to stand up, at this critical moment,
and fight the battles of conservatism against the
fanatics Of the North and bitter enemies at the
South. He wanted to see the Democratic party
united and true to the Constitutions both of the
United States and Of North Carolina and in par
ticular against the Opposition ad ralorens hobby.
After taking up about an hour, he gave way for the
great bell-weather of Know Nothngism in Johnston
county, DR.. j. T. Leach, who took the stand mount
ed the platform of the Opposition Convention, and
began to plead as usual to the poor people, as their
friend at such rate that heard one man say he
had liked to have asked him for negro; but he
did not stop at that but then took our resolutions
that we had just adopted, and found much fault of
them because they endorsed the platform Of the
Democratic party, and because they supported Gov.
Ellis-and went on at create rate abusing Gov.
Ellis for spending money on and in the Palace,
when we all knew that the Legislature done all of
that; but he would have these poor people that he
had Just plead so hard to to believe that the Gov
ernor took this money from the treasury whether
or no ana spent ~ independently OUT the LIT. hao
so much to say that shall not attempt to give you
half the points, n-ither do wish you to Know all
of them, for they would not profit you no more
than they will we Democrats in Johnston, and you
may be sure that we will show the DR.. in August
next that they do US no good. But the DR.. did not
still get satisfied til he gave W. H. Seward bles-
sing, Gf you will so term it by telling the people
that he Seward, was sounder man to-day than
Hon. Stephen A. Douglas. Yes, he, as man own
ing many negroes, speaks up for Seward, who, but
a few months since, sympathzed with old John
and endorsed the infamous Helper book. But the
DR.. will have enough to encounter with without my
saying anything more about him; but want to say
to the Democrats of Johnston county, never let
that man take another seat in the Capitol, who had
rather have Seward, the head leader of the black
Republicans, President, than Democrat.
