AFTERNOON SESSION.

The following teachers were enrolled
as members of the Institute:
Rev. j. NJ. Wright, GAINESVILLE.
Tenn; r. w. Binkley, NJ. e. Carney,
Pea Ridge, Tenn.
Prof. Loventhal was requested to re-
view the subject of Grammar, which
he did 10 his usual mastery style. He
then exemplihed by clear and forci-
BILE analysis. the reduction of common
fractions. President Whitfield was
then called upon for his method of dis
cipline. He felt this matter of vital
importance to the teachers success,
1t required as much tact and ability to
govern school as TO command an army
or to govern State. He would use
the rod only in extreme cases. Col.
Fessey gave a brief summary of his
mode of conducting a school, and his
discipline was firm yet parental; al
though he had the name of being a
rigid disciplinarian, he rarely ever used
the rod. Mrs. Lizzie Bib rarely ever
inflicted corporal punishment. She
could accomplish the ends by force of
character and example. Prof Loyen-
thai's secret of success consisted in
keeping the pupiiseRgloyed; ''an ounce
of tact was worth pound ct sense in
government"

which we are familiar, because we have read or
heard Of them, but which to the unaided vision
have remained sealed book, are brought
within the realizing reach of our sight and un-
