VIII IT BE CLEVELAND
Ehc Outlook as to the Conventions Ac-
ton as Seen at Chicago.

Special to,Tesponcteace ofUte Ctroaicle.
CHICAGO, July ALL the desirable
rooms in all the desirable hotels have been
engaged for next week The chief State
delegations attended to this piece of brsi-
ness for themselves Of course, early. But
besides he State delegations and prOmi-
nent politicians by the hundred, thousands
of unknown men have within the-last few
days Sle.raI. I.hed for quarters. The crowd
will pc larger than ever before attended a
Dlnfocratic C0sJ.ntson The hope Of
Democratic success is greater than it was
ever before AL over the country, and new
men by the thousand Will be here. The
local guess IS that the crowd that was
here the other week Will seem small by
comparison.
Bets are made and taken on Tilden,
Cleveland. and Bayard, III the order
named. Some think too, that Mcdonald
has more than a dark horses chance. The
strongest feeling is beyond question in fa
vor Of Cleveland. The report is yariously
circulated and yariously believed OF not
that Tilden prefers Cleveland. This, to-
eethcr with the general availability of
Cleveland as the surest man to carry New
York, makes the strongest boom that is
now felt
The recent action Of the Ohio Democ-
racy in declaring that the party must have
Tilden at all hazards, and saying by i'm
pllcatiOn that he cannot and Will not re
fuse, if q unanimous nomination. IS Ten

of ''The Dignity Of the Teachers Calling
in language at once chaste and forcibe
Miss Mary Pescud, formerly of Raleigh,
but now of Nashville, Tenn, entertained
us with a well-Written essay on "The New
Education.'
Prof. Reinhart moved that thanks be
returned to those three ladies for their
timely and thoughtful essays, and that
they be requested to allow them to be
published in The North Cu,olinn Teacher
The motion was unanimously carried
Indeed had it not been for the hearty CO.
operation and help of the ladies present,
the Assembly would have fallen far short
of the success it attained. They recited,
sang, wrote and read essays What more
could have been asked This looks a lit
tie like WOmens Rights We hear so much
about OF late years, but where the ladies
are as modest and unassuming as those
spoken of above, and at the same time so
talented there is nothing to be feared
The closing performance was on Friday
night. 1t consisted of recitations and
music. RCcltationS were given by Miss
Simpson and Miss Florence Slater of Raj
eigh, and Miss Daisy benson, and Miss
Carrie Ihric, Of PittsbOrO, rendered we'll
beautiful solo, accompanied on the flute
by Mr.. Siderio Of the string band. Sew
eral other songs were we'll given and we'll
received. The closing song was ''I1o for
Carolina" which was led by DR.. W. b.
Harrell, the authOr of Monroe, the
whole audience joined in heartily and the
assemblage broke up in fine humor.
1t has not yet been decided where the
next meeting will be held. Some favor
the seaside, some Chapel Hill, while the
great majority prefer the mountains. A
vote of thanks was voted by the Assem-
bly, to Mr.. Eugene q. Iarrell, Col. y. B.
Andrews and to Mr.. J. &. ). Timberlake
the proprietor, and to the good people of
Waynesville and surrounding country.
The pleasures of this trip will be long
remembered by the teachers of the State,
and while not as many prominent lectur-
crs were present as could have been wish
ed, yet all feel wonderfully benefited,
both mentally and physically, and feel
that a great work was begun, which, if
properly fostered will prove to be of in
calculable benefit to the teachers Of the
State and source of pride and interest
to all the good people Of the Common
wealth.

exceedingly interesting exhibit to our

'sAt the office Of Gen. IIazen, the Chief

it is quite likely that an experiment sta

general and sincere satisfaction ! have
said all that can be said about the feeling
III Greensboro. We expected it, of course;
and we feel n corresponding qualification.
The Fifth District will poll u heavier Dem
ocratic vote than ever before.
About his successor, all that can now
be said is personal conjecture or gossip
Guilford will no doubt present Col J. T.
Morehead and Col. John n. Staplcs--one
or both, though the selection Of Col
Staples as an elector changes his attitude
to this subject. The campaign thunder
will roll heavy here and to the west Of us.
General Scales knows York, and knows
what To do with him. There il peculiar
satisfaction heard here too among some OF
the best people that our next Governor
will be not only an able public servant but
deyout Christian gentlcman--a crcum-
stance that in our long list Of Democratic
Governors has not been so common as To
have become monotono9s.

He delights in taking parties over the
mountains to show them the sights and
to recount his hunting stories. He lives
in a wild looking place over on Lickstonc;
he is about 60, wears an irOn-gray NOUS
tache, and has prominent Roman nose.
He is little bent with age, but still
looks hearty and vigorous. In his noun
tain excursions he rides fine black stall
lion without any saddle. On Sundays
he will put on his ''biled shirt" his blue
jeans coat with velvet collar, bring a
good sized bottle of mountain dew :"
which his large pocket-faps fail entirely
to hide, and come over to the Springs to
enjoy fashionable life for day. He pos
sesses good deal of mother wit, and
rarely fails to draw around him crowd
of listeners. The other day l overheard
the following conversation between him
and a crowd Of young explorers Now
