THE Ticksburg Times pays the following
eloquent compliment to General Meade:
"If there is not honor and maniiness
enough amongst the officers of the army to
prefer charges against and brini, to condign
punishment this brutal and cowardly villain,
we care not how soon they are in the con-
victs cell. The conduct OF this degraded
wretch is {. disgrace to the Government, to
the service, and to civilization, and every Off
Ger who fails to make a manly effort to rid
the army Of this desplsed caitltf, makes
himself partner in the viliainy Of the most
abandoned criminal that ever wore uniform.
The v;lest felon, the most black hearted male
factor the world can show. is a princeiy
gentleman, when compared with George 6.
Meade, the cowardiy tyraut of District No.
B."
This, coming from a source as the Vicks-
burg Times, is pretty good proof that Gen
eral Meade has not administered the affairs of
his district to the interest of the rebels. In
c;dentally, the style of the above paragraph
will give some idea of the kind of civiliza-
ton which prevails in the vicinity Of Vicks-
Chronicle.

Respecting the instructors in the Nor

Executive Committee, to whom has been
intrusted their appointment. to secure the
services of only such teachers as have
had special preparation for Normal teach-
ing by previous attendance st sone State
Normal School of good reputation, and
" no Lave further shown their fitness by
a successful experience as teachers. In
order to accomplish this with the limited
means at their disposal it has been neces-
sary to employ ss JeW teachers as could
possibly do the work. Three has bsen
The number during the year, viz: Pro-
fessors Kellogg and Norton, and one fe-
male teacher. The numbsr of students
in attendance and the excessive labor in
vclvsd in the special Normal methods of
instruction would certainly have justified
the employment of an additional teacher.
BUTT was not done; aud by reason of the
extra labor voluntarily and cheerfully
performed by the different members of
the Faculty, it is believed that no injury
to the best interests of the school has by
this omission been wrought.
During the spring. Inducements were
held out to Professor Kellogg with the
design of engaging his services as Prin-
cipal of the Normal Department of the
State University of Missouri, a position

similar institutions in other States were

of Directors at their last regular meeting

YOUR committee, with instructions to in
crease the salary of the Principal to
$4,000, aud Associate Principal to
81, 300, if. in the judgment of the COM
mittee. the interests of the school would
be best subserved by so doing. The fol-
lowing STATEMENT of facts with reference

earnestness of teachers and pupils, the
clearness and vigor of the recitations, the

are among the points most noticeable to
visitors, and such points as Indicate a
