Special Correspondence OF Republican.
REHoBoTH, Del, August 25.-- Teach
ers' Association, this morning, passed
resolutions In favor Of State Norma
school In connection with Delaware col.
lege, and requesting the Legislature tc
place the school tax law upon the same
basis a. other State tax laws.
In the afternoon Rehoboth was chosen
% the place Of holding the next annual
meeting and the following officers were
elected: President, Prof. William A.
Reynolds; Vice President, Miss Emma
Worrell, Prof. Heath, Prof. T. N. Will
lisns; Secretary, Herman Roe; Treasur-
or, Elizabeth Il. Fraser.
J. q. George then spoke on the sub
ject, SIS an undue amount Of time de-
voted to any Of the branches Of study
in the public schools p He thought
many studies were sadly slighted, but
the only branch he recommended teach
ers to discard was the oak or gum
branch, which had failed, il It had not
always been failure, in its mission in
the school room. Love should be sub
stituted for 1t.
AT night Chief Justice Comegys leo
tured on the relation Of teachers "a
their pupils and the duties and rsspon-
sibilities growing out Of 1t. They
claimed that the duty Of q teacher was
not only 10 educate the hesd Of the pupil,
bat to mark out for the child the moral
pathway 1t should pursue. This latter
was absolutely necessary now, owing
to the deplorable fact that many pa
rents had apparently, ceased to super.
wise the building Of the moral character
Of their offspring. He advocated deal
ing with an obstinate child gently, II
gentlsness would cure it, but, when 1t
fails, he believed in q liberal applica.
tion Of the rod, II necessary. Discipline
by means Of the rod is no disgrace,
sickly sentiment to the contrary not.
withstanding. At the close Of the
lecture the Association adjourned,
without date.

The Almond Club, the Democrat
organization Of that part Of the Seeon'
Ward known as the South Side, mad
the air ring In that section with . grsa
tumult last night upon the occasion o
their pole raising. The Bayard Clul
marched over about 9 O'Clock, headed
BY the Millsrd Band and accompanied
by few members Of the Young Mem
Democratic Club. Being joined by tn,
Almond Club the parade marched
through South Wilmington, and final
ly drew up before the headquarters II
not very good order.
It was noticed at this time that foul
young lawyers occupied the platform
namely, J. Frank Ball who was chair
man Of the meeting, Harry Sharpley
Harry Turner and Harry Pennington.
Joshua Pyle acted as Secretary.
Mr.. Ball made o very brief and dig
niasd speech and introduced Mr.. Sharp.
ley, who congratulated the Second
Ward Democracy upon the raising O
their flag. The floating Of the banner
has some signifcsnoe. Among other
things IL indiostes the progress Of an
important campaign. The campaign II
very important one, For fifteen years
the people have not chosen their rulers.
10 his opinion the Republican party
was not ruled by it's more honest lead
ers, and the party had outlived its
usefulness. The applause, which greet
the Senator's not very brilliant effort,
was slight.
Mr.. Turner followed and alluded
with sffervescent happiness to the glad
time four years ago when he had ad
dressed an enthusiastic meeting O.
Second Ward Democrats. Dropping
the pleasant vein Mr.. Turner adopted
loud voiced oratory, and in witherinG
tones denounced the fraud Of 1876
He also made the worn-out boast
which Democrats have been making
for months, "We have nominated
man who will be elected and will take
his seat"
Mr.. Pennington being introduced
adopted q trick Of the stump speaker
and gladdened the hearts Of his hear
ers BY saying he would not talk long
He did not keep his promise. HI
talked and talked. First he took uI
William Tell, and said he was not Al
great q man as Hancock. Then he
darted of through the conflict Of the
late civil war, and, taking new start
from Gettysburg, stepped from peak to
peak on the mountains Of passed ages,
dealing reCklsssly with the colossus Of
Rhodes and the heroes Of ancient
Greece. From these classic subjects he
came down to the case Of William Neal
and in heated manner talked about
the matter Just as Colonel Martin did
when at Dover the Democrats renomi-
mated him for Congress.
At late hour the meeting broke up
and the Aag was taken down and laid
away for future use, while the Baysrd
Club took up It's line Of march home

Tine Small POx.

FER Lno Daly hhPuBLlCAh.
MEssRs. RDIToRs Please give thu
following an insertion. Will the as
ssmbling Of the oolored people in thil
city on Sunday be the means Of the
small pox being brought here Doei
any sane man of either hue, with the
amount of brains allotted to him by his
creator, believe that any colered man
or woman would come to the meeting
here, having the disease in their
families AZ the time. We cannot think
one could be found so void Of common
sense in the number that will come.
The steamer Samuel N. FELTON, has beer
making regular Sunday excursions tc
Centerville, near to the worst infected
part, when the disease WAS in its
worst stages. Not q word did we hear
urged. May we not presume thai
white people do not or will not be at
liable to bring from. another city OF
hamlet, only on the last Sunday o.
August, the time for the annual meet
ing, they are forbidden to land from
steamboats,, for fear they would bring
the disease.
Is it such mysterious disease tha:
twill board extra trains only and on the
regular train no danger or the oolorsd
people may come Saturday or Saturday
night, no danger in either case.
What the company loses in not run
ming the extra train by charging
usual fare, we are as well of as though
the extra had been put on, and no
small pox brought by the oolored peo-
pie, and the whites always have about
them that which expels the disease.
Forgetting that steamers are running
daily from Camden to Philadelphia
city making very many trips during the
day. Who can tell but persons from
the small pox district are continually
going and returning to this city daily
and we may say hourly who can tell.
