African Ingenuity.

Necessity is said to be, the mother Of invention
We Witnessed an illustration of its being fact A
few days ago we beteld passing through the streets
of Marietta, a very nOVel looking vehicle, which we
will attempt to describe: Wooden trucks were the
substitute for wheels the sides constructed OF
rough rails the ends of clap-boards. The team
consisted of two miniature steers, haressed under
the yoke. We had curiosity enough TO enquire the
name of the proprietor of the novelty, and was IN
formed that ANTHONY CHERRY, c'ored man,
who lives six miles from town, and has IN eutl-
walton 20 acres Of bottom land, 10 OF which is III
cotton and 10 in corn, was the owner inventor and
manufacturer of the concern lie deserves not only
credit for his ingenuity, but his admirable adapta-
ton to the financial depression of the times 1t
would reem that not only our laws are to be the sub
iects OF reconstruction but our vehicles also. We
advise ANTHONY to apply tor patent.

tyou can make up class of SIX teach

in a familiar manner the best methods OF

benefit six schools next winter to an ex-

When convenient, form Normal Glass
in your school made up of those who have
taught, or are expecting to do SO. Your
advanced class in Grammar might consti-
tute such a class. Invite in the supeiin-
tending School Committee some evening
to talk to your class.
Your schools are where y very large

ucation. and it seems fitting that they
should receive some special attention for
their duties.
