ANOTHER Pow Wow.-On Saturday night last
the Republicans held meeting in the M. E. COL
ored Church in this place No whites save those
invited knew of the meeting, and but few of them
attended. We learn that speeches were made by
Maj. Jno. A. Hartman, Rev. Mr.. Phelps, A. 7.

Bowsef (colored) and - Black (colored. y
Wright Bolen, (colored presided.
We are unable to give a detailed account of the
meeting, but are informed that Rev. Bowser, fool
ored) grew eloquent in speaking of the CONVEX
sion of Maj. Hartman, liking him when opposed
to the Republican party to Saul of Tarsus, but
when converted, to Paul, whom, with open arms,
the colored people welcomed, as the Rock of their
salvation in this section.
Our apology for this m eagre statement is that
we were not an invited guest and heard of the
meeting only after it was over.

WHAT AN l FIT For ?-There is only one meth
cd by which young man can discover what
position in life he is best fitted to occupy. He
musttry. He may be qualified to plan, to lead,
to control. or his talent may be simply executive
and of the kind that assists in carrying out the
IDEAS of other men. In either case his aid is need
ed in the vast and diversified field of labor pre-
scented by great and growing country. The
head and the hand are equally requisite in every
branch of science and business in all the pursuits
of actual life. If the man who is merely expert
of hand stands, or seems to stand, on lower lev
ell than he who means largely and wisely, let him
not repine at that for on the plane where his Ca
pacites have placed him there is less of response
bility and anxious than in the higher posi-
tons assigned to more powerful and comprehen-
sive intellects Having found his true place in
the great commonwealth of industry, let the
young man cling to it, and not allow himself to
be prompted by plausible stories and dreams of
sudden wealth, into speculations for which he is

The Cairo Public schools.

The public schools Of Cairo will open
on Monday, the 9Th day of September
next. The following corps Of teachers
has been employed for the ensuing year:
Joel g. Morgan, principal; Michael
Howley, Miss Hatch, Mrs Sage, Miss
Mary Hawkins, Miss Della Hawkins,
Miss Slmonds, Miss Warwick, Miss Au-
brey, Miss Kelsey, leaving the position
Of first assistant to Mr. Morgan vacant.
We are pleased to hear the determination
expressed to secure for that position q
first class, experienced lady teacher.
Glass A., composed now OF young ladies
and gentlemen, will enter next year upon
the study OF astronomy, geology, and
solid geometry, and will, therefore, re-
quire the presence OF n highly educated
assistant. That the services OF such
person can be commanded for the same
salary paid to persons who never taught
q day In their lives, and who never even
educated themselves as teachers, Is not
expected We feel warranted I'm saying,
therefore, that - few dollars per month
will not debar Mr.. Morgan Of the aid Of
an accomplished and experienced assist
ant. No. ! teachers are In demand every.
where just now, and will, In all cases,
exact the market value OF their services.
IL Is not supposed that exceptions will be-
made In favor ofCairo. Taking this view
of the matter we look forward with high
hopes to the next year of the Cairo p ib-
lie schools.

can and will make It TO their interest to
give him a trial..
