New Advertisements.

! Some persons are travelling
over the country, representing
themselves TO be agents for the
Elk River Wooden Mills. They
have no authority to do so, and
the proprietors think it only just
to the Mills and the public to
announce the fact. Their man.
ufacture is increasing in pop
ularity continually-the goods
are more sought for than ever
before; and this increased de-
mand is very easily explained
in the superior quality Of goods
and the watchful and laborions
attention of Superintendent As
+quith and Business Manager
Cross.
A very desirable tract of land
is offered for sale. 1t lies con-
venient to Oak Hill, and can be
had on reasonable terms.
Mr.. A. W. Zion Feeney is
candidate for Constable of this,

him, and that is as much as TO
say that everybody thinks he
would make good officer.

be regarded as among the indi. il of APP

Public Examination.
For the Fayetteville Observer

For the Fayetteville Observer
1t was my good fortune to b
present at the examination oil
Miss Fannie Perkins school
two miles west of Fayetteville
on the 10th inst. And / hav,
concluded it would be Of inter
est to your readers to have
brief sketch of the proceedings
The exercises of the morning
hours consisted in recitation.
from reading, spelling, arithme-
tic, grammar, &C.; and the lit
tie children gave sufficient evil
dence of the care and atten-
ton their preceptress had be-
slowed upon them, in impart-
ing instruction. No set les
sons prepared for the occasion,
cut and dried to deceive the
patrons, was practiced by the
teacher, but the children were
examined promiscuously, as far
as they had advanced III the va
rious branches of study. This
is the only manner of examina-
ton, which affords fair test of
scholarship. 1t is easy to pass
an examination, when each pu-
pill has timely notice of what
question will be propounded;
not so, when the proficiency in
scholarship is put to the test Of
fair andlmpartial examination.
When the pupils pass this CRU
chile, then we have the assu-
rance that they have been faith
full in their school duties. AT
ter the morning exercises, the
demands of nature for the
nourishing nutriments Of life
was amply supplied by the sub
stantials and delicacies of diet,
furnished by the patrons of the
school.
The exercises of evening con-
sisted of composition, declama-
ton, dialogues, &c. Without
indulging in any inyidious dis
ordinations, suffice it to say
that the pupils entertained the
large and appreciative audience
during the evening in manner
creditable both to themselves
and their worthy preceptress.
At the conclusion of the exer-
cises, G. G. Mckinney, was
called for, and responded in an
impromptu speech upon the
Importance of giving proper di-
rection 10 the mind and heart
in early education. At the
conclusion Of which, with the
thanks of Miss Fannie, the au-
dience dispersed.

US that DR.. Drake, the careful

Der. The letter Of Gov. Harris
has never before appeared in
print, Gen. Cleburne's views on

@ Last Sunday night Col
j. II. Holman delivered an adj
dress at the Methodist church
at the request Of the United
Friends of Temperance, as was
published in this paper he would
do. The best compliment that
can be paid the address is to say
that it was an effort worthy Of
the man who made it. He said in
his Introductory remarks, that he
wouldn't present any new facts
for the consideration of the peo-
pie; but he presented them in a
different manner to what they
have been presented before.
At the close Of the address an
opportunity was afforded all to
enrol who wished to serve in
the war against intemperance.
AZ names were enrolled that
night and 3 more the following
morning. We would be glad if
the opportunity was afforded US
of chronicling such additions
every week, until intemperance
becomes a thing of the past.
