seems to have taken bound upward and

"Gary Hotel' in. another column. Mr.
B. P. Covar, the proprietor; is a man of
untiring energy, excellent judgment,
and most obliging disposition. He will
keep his house in accordance with the
advanced ideas and vastly increased COM
forts of the present day; and his career
in this lire of business will be certain to
make Edgefield very attractive to stran-
gers and wayfarers. But to come down
to real literal matters, we do not exactly
see where our friend Covar Wit put his
strangers and wayfarers, for, as far as we
can see, his house is already filled up
with permanent boarders, forming So
cial circle very pure and refined. Among
these are the Rev. MIR. Hundley and FAM

Tillman and her daughters, Mrs. Julian

The Examination of Teachers.

Throughout Friday and Saturday last,
Commissioner Edison and Messrs. Reese
and Folk were busy in the examination
of nucnerous applicants for certificates
as teachers in the free schools. We WIS.,
tied the .uene for a while, and were
strongly impressed will: tie superiority
of the new system of printed questions
to be answered in writing, over the old
oral and perplexing plan. But we ear
nestly hope the trustees in our different
school districts will not consider thom-
selves bound to give a school to. every
bearer of q certificate. This would be
,iawdlipg away the fuEd without offering
sufficient incentive to IL fcw good teach
e-s to do their lty. And speaking OF
tbe fund, reminds us that it will be a
little larger in future, as The half of the
poll tax applied hitherto to past incebt-
edness, will no longer be diverted. AS
TO how long the free schools will contin.
ue in session, that will depend upon the
action of the trustees in the different dis
tricts. The apportionmcnt of the funo
will take place in a week or two, ane
Commissioner Edison will publish
) statement And now good schools be
