EALEIGH'S BROKEN EANk.
The Securities i'll the Vault not I"uche"-
Creditors will not Lose Everything
The DefaulterS Heard from.

RALEIGH, March 2S.-To-day the for
NAL investigation of the affairs Of the
smashed State National Bank Of this
city has begun by Bank Examiner
Tate. His first act WAS to open inc
vault. 1t was currently believed that
special deposits in the vault had been
tampcrcd with and appropriated by
the abscondny president, Charles r..
Cross. and Cashier Samuel {. " hltc,
but 1t WAS found that they had not been
tampcrcd with 1T all.
Ten days ago the bank cicrtrd 1lFe
new directors, who became also stock
holders. They were cruelty victimizc".
They publish this afternoon an an
nouncvmcnt in which they claim that
at the time they agreed I" h"""lnc d-
rcrtors they had no reason I" believe
that the banks condition WAS not good,
as stated by President Cross and CASH
icr White, ;tnd they had 10 reason 70
think. otherwise until last M"nday
night, and. that their assent having
been obtained by fraud, they arc adviS-
ed that in law il was no assent, and
that they have never been directors.
They will resist any and all liabilities
ON their part, respectively, upon this
ground. They are all represented by
able counsel, who claim that they are
not liable.
Examiner Tate devoted much of to-
dav to the examination of discount pa
per. Tonight he said that all >pccla!
deposits are intact; SO also arc culiater-
ais to discount paper, as far as he has
gone The money gotten by cross and
White was upon loans and advances
made by banks at distance sent by cN'
press to them, and New York exchange
which they got caShca. As far aS nc
has zone the matter docs not look IL
bad tonight us has been rumorcd. 1t
now looks, said he, rs if the creditors
of the bank will be incOnvcnienccd by
delay, but will evidently get part i not
all of their money.
1t is learned tonight that tclc%rams
were received to-day from both Cros:
and White, and that the former is il
Toronto and the latter in Montreal. As
has been stated, both men deserted theil
families. The negro janitor, John Grif'
fifth, who fled with them, also deserted
his wife and five children.

TEACHERS DEP y r TN + y !
ARTHUR KlBLER, EDITOR.

We commend to the thoughtful con-
sideration of the Boards of School lrus-
tees of the different townships i'll the
county the timely remarks OF The Her
aid and News, made two weeks ago, III
reference to paying teachers cash ior
their services instead of compelling
them, as is frequently the case, to sell
their pay certificates at big discount.
The farmer or merchant who would
undertake to hire employees with the
understanding that they were to re-
I.eiye their wages ten or twelve months
hence would hardly meet much sue
cess. Why should teachers be subjected
10 this Inconvenience. or Shai! we say
imposition?
If the money in the treasury Will
only pay the teachers for one or TWO
months, let the public school be Kept
open only that length OF time tor one
wear and the whole matter Will be
righted. Pay as YOU go Il iil'IAlhi
the soundness OF which, either in NOR
ais or finances, has never been galnsaio'
and we commend it to the attention OF
the men having in charge the payment
of teachers salaries. Many, or prob
ably most of the teachers, are ladies,
some Of whom have to pay board ana
support themselves out OF their meager
salaries: and yet they have to submit
to a sshare" in order to get even this.
There may he grain OF comfort III
the knowledge that in some depart
ments of the state government this Sys-
tenn is in vogue. At least so we have
been informed. If true, the more'S the
pity.
The err is raised on every hand that
the credit system is running the coun'
try. Let ,,ublic officials set private
citizens good example i'll the matter
of prompt payment, and we may hope
for the dawn of a brighter day.

Is there not too much attention
riyen to the teachingOf the dead iall-
pllares in our common school: IN
many county schools boys aud girls
are put to. studying Latin, before they
have acquired even common Iacltty
in the Use of their another tongue.
Many of these pupils never attend any
higher institutions of learning and any
one who has taken a college course III
the classic languages can judge from
the facility with which his knowledge
of them is forgotten, how mach 4 boy
or girl is likely to remember who has
never acquired any more knowledge
of these languages than can be taught
in a country school. Better, except IN
rare instances, leave the teaching OF
Latin and Greek to the High Schools
Colleges, &c, and give the pupils III the
common school thorough training III
arithmetic, English, l. 5. History ana
such other subjects as have practical
bearing upon the pursuits which the
large majority of them will follow III
maturer years.
Herbert Spencer in discussing the
relative value of the different depart
ments of knowledge bears very strong
and emphatic testimony against the
study of Latin and Greek. We quote
the following passage in illustration:
I'm the Greek schools, music, poetry,
rhetoric, and philosophy which, until
Socrates taught, had but little bearing
upon action, were the dominant sub
jects; while knowledge aiding the arts
of life had Il very subordinate place.
And in our universities and schools at
the present moment the like antltheSls
holds. Weare guilty ofsomcthing like
q gratitude when we say that through
out his after career, Il boy III nine cases
out of ten, applies his Latin and Greek
TO no practical purposes. The remark
is trite that in his shop, or his Office,
in managing his estate or his family, IN
playing his part as director ola bank or
railway, he is very little aided by this
knowledge he took so many years to ac-
uulre so little, that generally the greater
part of it drops out Of his memory; and
if he occasionally vents Latin quota
ton. or alludes to some Greek myth,
it is less to throw light OH the topic IN
hand than for the sake ofetfect.'
In connection with the above, we
take occasion to call the attention Of
teachers to Il monograph entitled Eng
lish in the schools by Prof. +. e..
Woodward, of Wottord College. The
value of English as disciplinary study
is ably set forth in this little work.
Logical analysis is strongly urged both,
us method of obtaining thorough
knowledge of the mother tongue and rs
means of mental discipline. Prof.
Woodward is not the first to present
this method, though we have not seen
it presented in print before. The mono
graph is the production Of 4 gentleman
who has devoted considerable effort to
popularizing the study of English i'll

nected, and we beSpeak for it 4 thought
