This original and peculiar book ha'
been recently published by Messrs. Ley
poldt & Holt, New York.
The authors begin with the assumption
that English Orthograpby ought to be
taught by the eye rather than by the ear
The exercises in this book are founded on
this principle. Dictation Exercises are very
helpful when constantly repeated, so rules
are very useful when thoroughly under
stood ; but simply to go through an exer-
else, and then consider the work accomp-
lished, is a mere waste of time.
This may be made a very useful book
in teaching English spelling. Few rules
are given, but these few are sufficient for
all ordinary purposes.

TEaE COUNTY SYSTEM.

The friends of education in the State
are divided or the question of a School
System. Some advocate the County,
while others incline to the State System.
There is much in the System, no doubt,
but IN inferior School Law, well executed
may prove far more advantageous than q
superior law poorly managed. While we
advocate the State, we are not ct all dis
posed to work against the County System.
"a a people, We are rot ready to manage
the machinery of a very complicated
School System. There is net SO much il
any one system as many seem to suppose.
In building a house we lay the foundation
first, after which comes the erection Of the
superstructure. It is not altogether diff
erent in school matters. There must be
q beginning. The State System is on
sidered the perfection of School Legisla-
ton, or at least, it is looked upon as a
model of perfection. 1t has taken a long
time in many of the States to reach it. In
a State like Tennessee where popular edu-
cation has always been overlooked, it could
hardly be expected that tho people were
able to appreciate fully the best systom
of Free Schools. Our experience teaches
US some important lessons on this subject.
Let US profit by the experience of the past.
Tennessee is suffering greatly in all her
interests for the want of popular educa-
ton. The people have quarreled over
this question for six years. Much has been
done for education, but the demand for
something practically suited to the wants
Of the whole country il urgent and impsr-
stive. ~r.s C~EH ~
There is no hope that the Legislat ure
will give anything more than the County
System, somewhat modified. The power
to change, alter. or amend the School Law
lies really in the people Let them once
become aroused and alive to the interest
of education and Legislation will be easy
and rapid. The, people are not ready.
and the Press, the great exponent of the
popular will has never fully espoused the
cause. Why should not every newspaper
take up the subject?

EDUCATORS Nm COUNCIL.

CThep proceedings of the Sixth Annual
Teachers Association have been published
in al the leading papers of the State.
The delegation was not very large. bat
the interest manifested was one of the
most encouraging features connected with
the educational interest of our State. A
number of important topics was discussed
at length by the delegates from different
sections of the State. The meetings were
harmonious and attended with an unusual
degree of interest. 1t was the opinion of
every speaker that a State Superintendent.
was necessary to make the present School
Law efficient. The opinion prevails that
the Legislature will create the r~oace5ahdC
provide means for occurring the services Of,
sa able and vide-ewaks edncasor 10 esn-
vsss the entire State. If this be done, it
will be a loag step in the right direction.
Our people do not know what to do in this
great matter. If the question of Com
mon Schools could be brought before them
in a proper way, they would heartily re-
spond with their money and their efforts.
We hear inquiries every day about Free
Schools. Many are waiting to do some
thing, but the way is blocked up too much.
We, in Tennessee, are in about the same
condition that Massachusetts, was when
Horace Mann took hold of her Common
School interest. Some live man at the
head of the Schools in this State might
do u more noble work, if possible, for
Tennessee. -
The Normal School was discussed ably
and at length. In fact, all the great lead
ing questions bearing on education receiv-
ed more or less attention. The Teachers
Association is becoming a power in the
State. Why should il not be more large
ly attended? al

WHO can question that the great sue
cess of Methodism would have been utter
iy impossible if, as a rule, q liberal educa-
ton had been required as something in
~dispensible among the qualifications for
preaching the gospel, or if men of little
learning had been discouraged from en-
tering the ministry? It is plain that if
this had been the rule, the Methodist
Church must have been a comparative
failure. 1t would have been to-day far
in the rear of other denominations and
great multitudes of the Ignorant and poor
never would have heard the gospel. Now,
it is a very serious question how our
weak, destitute churches are ever to be
supplied with a learned ministry. Is not
the thing, under present circumstances.
obviously impracticable? OF course
there is to be no lowering of the Presby-
terrain standard in regard to the literary
qualifications which it is very desirable
that all candidates for the ministry should
possess; better that it should be raised
than lowered but it is a question vheth-
er, under the circumstances, with the
great number of unsupplied churches. we
are not too rigid in our adherence to this
rule: or whether many more compare
lively illiterate men mightnot be encour-
aged to enter the ministry without the
