bear them out in their first, while an

This meeting, in our Judgment, will prove
to be a very important epoch in the cdu-
c%ational affairs of Tennessee. State SUI
rerintendent Hon. John NJ. Fleming,
submitted a brief report of the school OPP
crations in the State. The report was
very encouraging. The most sanguine
friends of the free school interest never
anticipated such results. Every county
in the State has opened public schools
with one exception. This one will open
its schools in February. Col. Fleming
has shown himself IN excellent school Of
fcer. He has given life to the school
system. He has brought order out of
confusion. lie is manifestly the right
man in the right place.

Scaool Teachers in Council.

~OSNA ~OoSf'olS III
The State Teachers Association never
perhaps held a more interesting session
than the one which closed on the 10th
inst. The SchOolmasters of the State are
alive to the great educational interests of
Tennessee. We anticipate great results
will follow the action of this body. 1t
took inltiatory steps towards establishing
a school Journal for the State. We take
for granted that the enterprise will be set
on foot at the earliest possible day. We
almost venture to pledge to the enterprise
the united effort of the teachers of Wash.
lngton county, Our teachers see the ne,
cessity of such a school journal, and are
willing to second the efforts of those en-,
gagged in the management Of the proposed
Journal.
Normal Schools too. we're freely and
fully discussed by the Association. We
indulge the hope that Tennessee will soon
be able to rejoice over the establishment
of at least three Normal Schools, for they
are absolutely necessary to perfect our
school system. Every teacher must feel
gratiiad at the encouraging outlook of
the educational interest of Tennessee.
