| fectlv, and the teachers had certainly made
teaching upon that system success. BE was
only theoretically acquainted with their use,
Had always used the other system, and pre-
felred ii, possibly for that reason. He paid q
deserved compliment to the class in logic, and
approved of the methods Of teaching adopted;
thought method necessary TO success in the
graded as well as in the higher schools Would
find one fault, however, with class in read
ing. They seemed to have been drilled so as
to acquire one tone, one key, though they read
well, and the teacher showed confidence in the
ability of the class in bringing out such se-
lection. Thorough drill in elementary sounds
was necessary to make good readers. and it
must have taken both time and effort to pro-
cure such results as the exercises of to-day had
shown.
F. M. CHM, excused himself from making
speech, upon the plea that it was near the din
ner hour, and he would not detain them.
Another suggested he had better speak now,
as after dinner he would be ''too full for ut
terance, and the Association would be de-
prived of the pleasure of hearing him. Mr..
Saddler, of Wauseon, had not expected to
make any remarks, but would say few words
on the subject of drill It was an essential
element in the perfect culture of scholars, and
he was glad TO note the results attained by the
scholars of the classes which took part in the
exercises. He was especially pleased with the
class in numbers. They showed great pro-
Hcisncy, and thorough drill He had always
opposed map drawing by construction lines,
but the evidences presented to-day had showed
that a man might have objections without
good grounds for them, and though he favored
drawing by parallels and meridian lines,he had
not seen maps constructed so well or 50 rapid
" as to-day. The class was evidently well
drilled, and could do better even than they
had done to-day.
The Convention then adjourned until two
o'clock P. NJ.

nent. He had refused The measure had
proven salutary and in the same district now
you could not organize opposition to measure
of similar character. As to the movement
IN favor of compulsory education, he thought
its necessity would be conceded. The State
had control over its citizens, and if it could
require service of them it was competent to
require them to be educated so as
to perform the service required. He con-
CURED in the general opinions expressed in re-
gard to the adaptability Of such law to the
wants of the country. He was glad to see so
much interest manifested by teachars, as they
had shown to-day, and hoped they would con-
tnue to interest themselves in the welfare of
the race. Men might have their deeds in
scribed on marble or illustrated on convass,
but the work of the teacher would be manifest
In the lives of men and women, whose eharac-
ters were formed under their influence.
Mr.. Thompson thought that when the de-
velopments which educated science had made
were considered, and when consideration was
had to what would ultimately be developed,
education could only be considered as in its in
fancy, and man could only entertain ideas of
his own imperfect knowledge. He believed
compulsory education would have bene6cent
etfect. The census reports gave an approx
innate idea Of the extent of education, but they
were necessarily imperfect or overdrawn, but
even the most favorable reports showed dis
crepancy which should be remedied. Com
pulsory education would show q more favor

The resolution was then put upon its pass
age, and adopted as the sense of the meeting,
by unanimous vote.
The Association then passed vote of thanks
to the School Authorities, and to the citizens
for the iberahty and hospitality extended.
Moved that the next meeting of the Associ-
alton be held at the time and place determined
on for holding the Institute meeting, should
one be held.
A motion to adjourn then prevailed.

ST.. THOMAS REALLY DESTROYED. .-Ha-
lifax is vindicated. The report which
first reached us from that point, and has
since been, contradictcd, of the ruin
caused in the Island Of st. Thomas by
the recent hurricane there, is at last fully
vindicated. An official report of the
Vice Consul of France at st. Thomas to
the French Minister of Marine and the
Colonies states that after q. severe gale in
the morning the wind. which had done
no great damage, subsidized about noon.
About 2 P. NJ. it rose again, and at 4 P.
N. three or four violent tornadoes. in
rapid succession, swept over tho town,
"leveling nearly every house in the
place and blowing to pieces many wood
en- ones" .'Twenty two persons, = SAYS
the Vice Consul, ':were killed and thirty
wounded" In the harbor the damage
was less serious, and a pleasant incident
which occurred deserves to be recorded.
a steamer of the French West Indian
line lying there not only rode out the
blow IN safety, but was enabled to extend
assistance to a German steamer in her
vicinity which had become nearly nn-
manageable. u

IHF 1000, 900, BALES HuMpua. The
New Orleans Picayune Has bepsins ID.
formed. by Q gentleman who has just re-
turned from an extended tour Id every
Southern State East Of the Mississippi
hlyer, that this'is one Of the worst Years
1or cotton he has ever known. In some
PLACES it is so stunted one must get down
on his knees to pick it. The crop along
the Alabama River-and he haii,t seen the
country on both sides-he pronouhces
mlserably poor; and, his general oonolu.
sion ls that even had there been no
Hoods, no worms nor devastating storms
this season. the cotton would still fall
very for below the average yield. He
estimates the coming crop at about
2,250.000 bales. The Picayune's in.
formant is neither buyer, seller nor
planter.
In corroboration of which the Mont
gomery Advertiser, Of Friday, prints the
following letter, written from New Or
leans on the goth. by one of the largest
and best known cotton factors in the
United States:
The worms have commenced work in
earnest on large majority OF the plan
tations below Natchez, both OH the river
and hills. and general destruction Of
the crop seems inevitabl Red River
lands appear equally unfortunate. We
have letters from planter OIL Red River,
some hundred miles above Alexandria,
saying that until the last two weeks his
crop was the best he ever saw, but now
was without leaf or young boil to be
found. In view of these facts it would
seem impossible for tho crop to reach
1900, 900 bales and may fall greatly short
of that point
