A Notice to Teachers.

No provision having been made
for State Teachers Institute, an In
stitute term will be held in connection
with the Normal School, beginning
Tuesday, January 9, 1874, and ending
Friday, January %, 1874.
The term Is made somewhat shorter
than the session last year, with the
hope that more teachers may be pres
ent during the entire session.
The members of the institute will
receive two hours instruction per day
from the faculty Of the Normal School
and others, upon subjects pertaining
to the duties Of the school room; and
in addition will have the privilege Of
attending any of the classes in the
Normal School, and of witnessing the
instruction in the Model School.
Evening lectures will be delivered
during the session, upon educational
topics, by prominent educators. The
list of lectures will be announced
hereafter.
Board can be had at reasonable
rates, and it is expected that the rail-
road companies may extend the same
courtesy that they did last year-free
return tickets to those attending the
session.
The trustees have also made provi-
sion for a post graduate course, open
to graduates of this or other Normal
Schools, High Schools, colleges or
academies, who may present satisfac-
tory evidence of having taught sue
cessfully Of Rast one, year. This class
win be provided f6f only during the
last term of the year. The instruc-
ton will, in the main, be professional,
and to those graduating from this class
a professional diploma will be granted:
The post graduate course will afford
an opportunity to teachers to review
their studies, to become acquainted
with the most approved methods of
instruction, and by the aid of the APP
paratus with which the school is soon
TO be supplied, perhaps to become
more familiar with illustrative appar-
atus and more skillful in its manipu-

from farmers, mechanics, stock-rais-
ers, orchard, vineyard, sheep husband
ry, apiarians, gardening, poultry

ter will always interest onr home peo-
pie, and be interesting to southern,
eastern and western men. A Stand

inquiry to parties east and west, desir-
ing to come to this country, should be
appointed by the Oranges or the
Chamber of Commerce. If Mr.. Nc

adjacent Counties could be forwarded

BY TELE GR APH


Secretary Of the Treasury Returned.
WASHINGTON, December 3O.-The Score
tary Of the Treasury has returned.
Mexican War Veterans.
The President will receive the soldiers of
the Mexican war on New Years day.
Minister Cushina's Instructions.
The appointment of Caleb Cushing to be
the successor of General Sickles, as minister
to Spain, continues TO excite comment con-
corning the character of the instructions he
will receive from the Department of State
after the confirmation of the nomination BY
the Senate.
Although usage is opposed to an open
declaration of the line Of diplomacy to be
pursued, it can be stated with truth that
one Of the subjects to which Mr.. Gushing
will give his attention will bs the policy of
political and administrative reforms in
Cuba, as the best means calculated to
restore peace to that island, and promote
its prosperity. Among these reforms is in
cluded the abolition of slavery in theisland.
The views which have appeared bOth in the
Presidents annual message and the official
correspondence of Secretary Fish. and
whick have been often communicated to
the Spanish Cabinet. will be urged.
1t will be recollected that several years
ago oar government rendered its good office
to Spain in the hope of Cuban pacitication,
but it was respectfully declined ON the basis
suggested. 1t ia not improbable that q
similar tender will again be made by the
new minister, as the administration will re-
sort to every proper expedient for the pur-
pose of restoring peace and of protecting
American interests in Cuba and the ada
cent waters; and there can be no doubt that
an effort will be made to conclude new
commercial treaty with Spain; the only one
ever made with that power being that of
1895 OF friendship, limits and navigation.
