The first Republican convention ever

pose of nominating delegates to the Lynch
burg convention, which is to convene on

inasmuch as its deliberations were marked
by the utmost harmony and dispatch, evin-
cling decided and radical change in the
minds of many who, but short time ago,
were arraingned against its principles in
most bitter hostility.
Upon motion, r. Ii. Carter, esq.,, was
called to the chair, and DR.. D. Day APP
pointed secretary,
1t was further resolved, that committee
of five be appointed to select four delegates

EDUCATION IN THE SoUTH.-Reports
received at the bureau of education give a
rather gloomy account of the working OF the
free-school system in the south. In some
of the states it seems impossible to obtain
attendance, while in many sections, es-
pecially South Carolina, the teachers are so
poorly. paid that good ones cannot be Sc
cured. This state of the case is alleged to
be caused more by poverty than prejudice,
poor people needing the manual labor OF
their children to earn living. Washing
