applicants were refused certificates Certin-
Gates were awarded to all white applica nts. ~,

applicants were refused certificates Certifl-
Gates were awarded to all white applicants. ~,
Under recent law, all graduates of colleges
are entitled to. first grade certificates to teach
in the public schools, without passing through
the ordeal of an examination. Under this
law, twenty-nine certificates were awarded to
white teachers-to 20 female and male applt-
cans Three colOred teachers were also
awarded first grade certificates under the
same law female, and l male. &.g.
The questions were prepared by the State
Superintendent of Education, and not by the
School Commissioned, as is generally sup:
posed, and the same questions were submitted
TO all the applicants. Their answers deter
mined the grade of certificate which, was
awarded to them. "Applicanls for cert i6cnies
Of qualification were required to make a gen.
eraI average Of not less than so per cent for q
first grade certificate. 10 per cent. for second
grade, and 6D per cent. for a third srade, and
not less than AZ per cent. on any branch !" -
Quite u number Of the teachers made gfatiI:
flying expressions Of approval of the present:
system Of examinations, and several testified
that they had been improved by the plan of
submitting to organizations. and said that
they were now better prepared to teach than
they had ever been.
Thursday was a beautiful day and the tenn
perature was pleasant, but on Friday the
weather was cold and disagreeable. The ex-
aminations were held in the Court room, and
the presence Of the teachers was in quite u
contrast with the usual scenes at the Court OF
General Sessions. Weare always glad to have
the teachers assemble in our village. Their
presence, like the presence of u Synod. or Con-
ference always has refining influence.

Prohibition to be IL National Issue.

Senator Blair, of New Hampshire has been
interviewed as follows: "Ncither high nor
low license will receive my sanction SO Iaras
the District of Columbia is concerned. For
you might just as consistently authorize MUIR
der, grand larceny. burglary, rapine and ar
son, all of WHICH are the natural accompani'
ments of the rum shop. There is IL necessity
for decisive Legislation by Congress on the
liquor question, and as for myself / am in ia
vor of absolute prohibition. The best thing
that could be done with the rum now In the
District Of Columbia would be to take it and
pour it into the river, and then its banciul in
flucnce would not be felt.
"Durng the tOrty-nnth Congress propose
to devote my time to securing the adoption or
Il bill introduced early this session looking to-
n more thorough knowledge Of the effect OF
intoxicants in the interest of the young peo-
pie OF this generation. If the youth or the
land can be taught that alcohol in any shape
is us deadly a poison as strychnine, arsenic or
prussic acid, few will be inclined to taste the
Stuff which destroys body and soul. Since
the battle of Waterloo there has been no one
year in which the combined suffering and PC.
cuninry losses inflicted upon the Caucasian
race by war, pcStilcncc and famine has equal,
ed the total destruction chargeablc to alcohol
in the same lapse Of time."

THE HEARING Of FISH.

Seth Green writes on this subject:
/ have had a great many arguments
in regard to fish's ears and their
heari, g, and from very careful OBJ
servation and numerous experiments
tried, l claim that they have no
cars and cannot hear. Many writers
about fish tell US to avoid all noises
around their ponds, lest they brighten
The fish, and TO he particularly care
full never to fire gun on the
ground, lest the delicate ear Of the
fish should be too much affected.
Fish cannot hear the sound of a hell
nor even whistle. neither Will they
start one fraction of an inch at the
sound of gun fired one foot above
their head; but the sight of most
fish, and especially the trout family,
is very keen. Ills enemies are to
be avoided Ivy the aid of his eyes,
and they will start and run at every
