MIR. EDITOR AS .faults5ndaag scenes
to be much in vogue, with the contrlou-
tors to your column, allow me to dip my
pen in the same fluid, and attack another
point, wherein many of or teachers err.
1t is a fact clearly demonstrated to all
shat MANY scholars are allowed to advance
in teri books, much beyond their mental
caEbers and against this custom | raise
my voice; 3, 9. ] have this winter Seen
little girl of nine summers with Mitch
ellis Atlas and Geography, under her arm,
enter the school room, and seat herself in
class beside those who were her seniors IN
age and advancement by ten Years. And
how common is it in The. schools of our
county, to find thos>. of the same age, with
reading books in their hands, which
taking th3 word of the author HIMSELF
were intended only for higher
schools and academies Now the injurious
results of such proceedings must be appar
ent to all. Let me illustrate my meaning
by an example which recently came under
my notice. A young man said to me,
(speaking of a certain term) 81 learned
faster that term, than any ether in my
life. was reading in the Second Reader
when the term commenced, / finished that
book, took up and mastered the Third,
and commenced the Fourth. This Won
derful progress was made some ten years
since. The young man. has been eoe~
since, and is non reading in the Fourth
Reader, and to-day he knows better than
to call himself good reader. The book
however, has of necessity, by long use,
become stale to him, and unless the teach
or can succeed by some ingenuity to pre-
sent the subject Of reading to him in some
new, and novel manner, he is doomed to
be poor reader all the days of his life.
I might enumerate examples and instances
with out end, but it is unnecessary, as the
point must be clear to the mind of any
teacher or pupil who reads this 1t re-
mains with the teacher then to determine
bow to avoid this great wrong towards his
pupils. And would that could tell you
the remedy, as easily as point out tht dis
ease. can only say to you, my fellow
teacher, feed the minds of such pupils
with ideas outside the text book. You
agree with me that the teacher ought to
give much instruction from external things
and you will ever find that pupil whose
perceptiye faculties are thus keen, is will
ing to explore anything you may suggest
There are always many things which you
do not mention to your classes, because
their minds are too weak to digest them
but you may put this ambitious youth on
their track, and he will in due time be
come a teacher of his class.

Tennessee conservatives to visit the
President, Burch, unable to come,

delegation TO recent orders as limit
to Executive powers, but assured
them that every power authorized
by the Constitution and laws would
be used to secure the freedom of the
ballot, without interference from
State or Federal troops. The Pres
ident takes the ground that the
Constitution forbids the mainten-
ance of a standing army in any
State, and that the act of 1865, dis
banding and forbidding militia and
volunteer forces, is absolute in the
South. The Presidents ground is
that militia duty is incumbent upon
every citizen that is an emergency
force, subject to be called from plow
or loom at any moment, and from
which no citizen can escape; but
that standing army of paid troops
in any State, unless called for and
controlled BY Federal authorities, is
