THURSDAY, A. NJ.
After the usual opening exerci ses,
conducted by Mrs. Hale, Mrs. Jones
gave the most charming lesson OF
the week on vocal music.
Meteorology was ably discussed
by Prof. Taylor. Under the head
of Thermal Phenomena, he gave
his theory of the Chinook winds.
They are hot variable winds from
the Japan current; rising high they
blow toward the east, passing over
the Cascade mountains, but are in
tercepted by the Blue mountains and
turned back to blow as east winds
over the plains of the Columbia and
the Willamette valley, to be again
turned by the Cascade mountains
and sent to Idaho and Western Mon
tana to disappear in the Yellowstone.
Mr.. Follansbee, on History, was
instructive.
Mrs. Hale ard Mr.. Follanbee
joined in talk on Physiology.
Prof. Taylor, on the Grammar OF
the English Language.

OLYMPIA. WASHINGTON TER.
OLYMPIA, FRIDAY EVENING, JULY Q, 1856.
The HOt-bed System.

The Democrats of Jefferson coun-
ty held their local convention on the
Sd instant, at Port Townsend, and
elected three delegates to the Terri
torial Convention, to be held at Ia
coma, ON the 18th of August. who
were instructed to support Charles
S. Voorhees, for denomination. The
convention likewise passed resolu.
tons highly commencing MIR. Voor-
hees for his past course and pledg-
ing itself, in the event of his renom-
ination, to work vigorously for his
reelection.
1t would seem that our Jefferson
county Democratic friends are not
only determined that their delegates
shall have plenty of time to study
their instructions, but that the De-
mocracy OF the whole Territory shall
understand, bsfore the ordinary time
of holding conventions, that Mr..
voorhees, is their first choice, and
that in case of his nomination
they will work vigorously for his
election. This is, perhaps, legiti-
mate and within the bounds of usage,
but it appears TO us quite unusual
to elect delegates SO long before the
convention which they are to attend
will meet. Public opinion is 30 un-
stable, nowadays, that it may un-
dergo many changes in the course Of
six weeks, aud moreover this unusual
haste in the selection OF delegates,
when considered in connection with
the instructions and resolutions re-
ferred to, is not calculated to re-
move the suspicion which has beeu
quite freely expressed, that this
whole early business is conduct.
ed more Will u view " COutIOiiluS
the nomination than for any other
purpose.
At this time we have nothing to
say in regard to the merits or ability
of any of the gentlemen whose names
have been mentioned in connection
with the nomination. All that we
ask and seek is, that whoever is to
be our standard-bearer in the CON-
ing campaign, he shall receive the
nomination in such q manner rs will
assure him the undivided support Of
his party.

IT seems that another of the West
ern cities besides Olympia did not
celebrate the 4tL of July. A San
Francisco dispatch says that the an
nivsrsary was not generally observed.
There was no parade, but exercises
were held at the Grand Opera House
in the morning. Frank NJ. Pixley was
orator for the occasion. Some fire.
works were displayed this evening.
Thousands went to the country and
it was a very dull, quiet day, with
no evening papers. Just the same
here. The day was damp and
dreary. and we didn't want any cele-
bration anyhow. 1t is Seattle's year
to fire. off bombs.

ARTHUR KIBLER, EDITOR.
The Teachers Wages.

Ono Of the retarding influences in
school work, is the insufficient sal.
aries paid teachers. 70 secure the
services Of q competent instructor
Il sufficient amount mrst be given.
Unless this is done only ordinary per.
sons can be employed. 1t is no won.
der that young men, graduating at col.
lcgc, should hesitate to engage in
teaching, when their services are so
little esteemed. If they do deter.
mine to teach, they do it with re
luctancc, and in most cases as soon
as an opportunity is offered, they
seek some other occupation. 10
suppose that q young man would be
willing to engage in teaching, when
the Slate offers lin only twenty five
or thirty dollars month for his work
is absurd. 70 say this small amount
is enough is ridiculous. 1t is won
dcrfully strange that the legislators
Of our State should suppose that the
common school teacher. is of such
little Importance. 1t does seem that,
to them. he occupies rather ordi.
nary position, to lay no more. Let
us sec how it is in other States. In
Massachusetts, the men average
$l0S.00 month, and the women
S44. 90. In Nevada the mcn average
$4,000 Il month, and tho women
500. Iii South Carolina the men
average $4,000 y month, and the
women SD. 90. We see that teacher
i'll South Carolina receives less than
one fourth us much as one in Massa-
chusetts, and not one-ffth as much
as ono in Nevada. What is tho
cause Of this great difference Is it
because the State is less able to pay
lis teachers than Il Northern State,
or because education is less appro.
ciated in South Carolina? There
may be another cause, which we do
not care TO. mention, but it should
not have too much weight, and
proper legislation would overcome it.
Suppose that the State should give
its competent tenchers as much as
$75 Il month, with the prospect of
more if they showed themselves
thoroughly qualified, then our school
would flourish. Thousands of dol.
lars may be appropriated annually
to the University and Citadel Aca
denny to pay the teachers handsome
salaries, while the common schools
teacher must be content to receive
only &25 II month. The result OF
this is that The best men cannot be
employed
