A few days ago we received comuu.
nication from respectable and worthy
citizen Of our county, charging the Board
Of School Examipes with upfair dealing
10 the examination Of applicants for Ger.
ti6cates.
J He had been Informed that one set Of
questions were prepared for male teach
ers and another for females, which we
beg leass to infoIm him % 1 mistaks.--
We do make diacrimination between
summer and winter teachers. Those ip-
tending to teach yipter school, be they
male or female, we thiuk should possess
higher qualifications than those who
teach in summer from the fact that in
most pf ppr schools, large scholars, and
the best, DO pot attend ip summer. In q
majority Of our schools, 10 summer, .
high degree Of scholarship is pot required,
but still teachers should knoE somethiny.
As to the charge Of "Favoritism,"
bsye but little to say. The .pubjoiped qRep,
tions and answers will show the magni.

certificate to the daughter of the disaf.
| fected. The records are open for inspsc-
ftion at any time, and We would be glad
for any one. dissatisfied, to examine them.
We know how natural it is for fathers
10 place a high estimate on the 4ualifca-
tons Of the children, whom they expect
10 GIL the teachers station.
We are not responsible, Mr. II you
have been misled by the opinions Of teach
ers under whose charge your daughter
has been placed. She may have studied
grammar three or four years, as you say
and become perfectly familiar with "Pen
neo" and "Bulion." You defy us t.
point out single example in Rays Ar.
liihmetic she cannot solve. We will moi
take issue with you on any Of these point
but give you the questions on Arithmetic
and Grammar and her aneEerg, and per
init even you to Judge Of the result. Per
baps you may conclude that great out
rage was not perpetrated after all. Tha
you may understand how to arrive at I
fair conclusion, we wcnld state that VI
present ten questions in each branch ant
require correct answers to six, as directed

A Great Crime Perpetrated.

In 1860 we furnished Europe with s.
per cent. of all the cotton she used. The
consumption of that staple was increasing
all over the world yearly. England furn-
ishcd India per year with more manufact-
ured than she received rs raw product from
that country. We furnished the 80 per
cent. to Europe, and the rest of the world
only 10 per cent. To-day there is scarcely
a spot of ground ON the globe capable OF
producing cotton, even ever SO poor that
does not send something In that line to our
late consumers; and instead of holding 50
per cent. OF the business, as we once did,
we now hold only 40 per cent; and India,
Egypt, Brazil, the West Indies and other
localities on the globe furnish the remain
ing 90 per cent.
Now, here is one of the roots, which,
chopped of by the Nandals will cause the
tree TO wither. The loss of the cotton mo-
nopoly Is a terrible blow to the commerce
of this whole country. We are feeling this
loss to-day. The prostration of the indus
try of the South has killed one thousand
millions of dollars per year exchange be-
tween North and South, which we had up
to 1860. What would the future have given
us when, In the year 1900, we should have
grown over 30,000,000 bales, had not the
internal wretches laid the ak t. the root OF
the tree?
