From Salisbury.

Mr.. Editor: thought perhap
you would like to get a piece from
from little schoolgirl, so I will
tell you about Teachers Institute
that was held here the 29th and 30th
of October. There were about 20
teachers present. It commenced
Friday, and lasted Saturday and
Saturday night. Prof. Windes had
a nice reading Friday night, subject,
Sin Union there is strength"
After he had finished, the teachers
were allowed few minutes to dis
cuss the subject. Nearly all of the
teachers spoke a few minutes.
The next thing was a song by
eight of the school children, entitled
GA Natural Spell" which was
very amusing. Prof. Mcdaniel
talked about Grammar, and Prof.
Westbrook about Pronunciation,
both of which were discussed by
the teachers.
Saturday several OF the teachers
spoke. Prof. Rose spoke on Geogra-
ply, and Prof. Fusch, on "1he
Pastoral duty of the Tea cheers.
Both were freely discussed by the
teachers, among whom, was Prof.
Dean, Prof. Alternately, Prof. Rice,
and others.
Saturday night, we children had
more fun than we had any other
time. Prof. Dean, of Iuka, Miss,
made a splendid speech, subject;
"The Mind" He said great deal
about will-power, and illustrated it
very clearly. The subject was free
ly discussed by nearly all of the
teachers. Prof. Alternately then
entertained us with some excellent
He is an slocutionist
from McNairy county. 1 never did |
laugh 80 much at one time, as I did |
whenshesr a | those funny pieces.
He read one of Artemus Wards !
Lectures, which was very amusing.
He also read one or two sad pieces
and several other funny pieces. One
Of them was entitled, 1.-The New
Church Organ" another which was
the funniest of all was GA boys
Composition on a Horse" He read
it just like a bashful boy would.
He also said 8 or 4 speeches, and
made everybody laugh so much,
hat they could hardly laugh any
more.

Of the river, is in a dreadful Condi-

How much shall Sacramento sympa-

mite contribution, but there is no statute
against every one contributing mite
every hour of the day. Let us remember
that there are ten thousand homeless
people in the Palmetto City to-day; FIVE
thousand homes that can be made habit
able only by liberal expenditure of money,
and the people neither have it nor can
they borrow it. Let Us aid them, remem-
bering the days when we were in distress
and others came to our relief. Let us give
and give freely, assured that the dimes and
dollars sown in the Charleston aid boxes
to-day win bring us bounteous return. The
Consciousness that we are helping our own
people, lifting them up out Of sorrow and
the depths of woe, giving men and women
the wherewithal to make new start under
the home roof-tree-this should amply re-
ray. Drop in the dimes as the committee
