dreaded foe to the children Of the poorer
classes, especially, but physicians arc carefully
investigating its pathogcuy, and hope soon to
reach results that may benefit the community.

Although the hatred of the Chinese against
foreigners frequently finds expression IN insults
to consular authorities apologies usually FOL
low with promptncss. China has enough on
hand to keep her busy. without war with
the Western nations The rebellion in
Mantchooria is not yet suppressed. The ma
tiyes of Formosa are not subdued. and there
is no prospect that they will loo, except by cX-
termination. A war against tho province or
Knshgar, whose rulers are preparing for revolt,
is likely to add TO the eInbalrnssments OF the
empire. Rebellion in some part OF emma
seems. however, to be sort of normal condi-
ton FOR her vast domain.

The Committee Of Five appointed by the
Tammany COMMITTEES on Organization to re-
organize the delegations of the Hid,
XIth, and XVIII Districts reported ON
Saturday. They found cause for regret
that the representation of the disaticc'cd
districts in the General Committee is so
limited that they have been obliged
to leave off the ticket many strong
supporters and influential friends. This
is a neat way of putting the case. The three
districts are those in which John Morissey +
power is supposed to have been cxerted. That
Tammany should find an embarrassment OF
riches in that quarter is, to say the least, re-
markable.

II Is thus seen that this school last year
had in attendance eighty.fOur students
outside Of Marion county, and one hun
dred and twenty.threc outside the town
where the school is located. The Nor.
NAL Schools arc the natural Outgrowth Of
the free school system. How to attain
the true normal method Ia the coming
problem in education, and Because the
trials Of the schools have not had time to
solve It, there Is room for differences
ofopinion.
We now have the ideal, the future will
give Us the experimental solution Of this
question. This school had 80 graduates
last year. 1t has now 80 students actual.
ly teaching In the free schools Of West
Virginia. These were in school during
the year ending June, 1875, About 100
Of the students in attendance here during
the last two years arc now teaching In
West Virginia. II in obedience to
the expressed and visible demands Of
our free school work the Legislature
sustains State Normal Schools, all agree
that they should be made such In number
and capacity "a to accomplish the great.
est good ut the least expense.
This question should be handled like
all other matters Of State interest with
reference 10 the greatest good to theg great
cal number. The Normal School II sup.
ported should be given elements Of strong
influence In our free school work-sO
much 40 "a 10 stimulate teachers to at.
tend them II they would command innu-
entail positions In the State. TO this
end they should be the only means through
which professional certificates and di.
plomaS for teaching can he had. Let all
teachers OF proper standing and qualif.
lions be admitted to the annual examine
tons in the Normal Schools, and II found
worthy, graduate with the normal stu.
dents.
This will cut of all antagonismS in
granting State certificates, give from three
to five opportunities Of competing for
such certificates, and il beyond question
the true policy to he adopted. Sustain
the schools and they will by trial work
out and formulate the true methods TO be
used In the art OF teaching. The Normal
School should be distinct from all other
schools, and our own Normal Schools in
West Virginia occupy advantageous po-
sitions in this respect. With a State
system Of 5000 free schools and $4,000
youth to be educated in them, Il would
DO exceedingly strange not to provide
special means to supply competent and
efficient teachers. J. q. BLAIR.
