PoTECAsI, N. c., May 23-The third
session of the Northampton County
Teachers Asso> iation was held here to
day. Much interest was manifested in
the meeting by the teachers and people
of the village and vicinity. The object
of the Association is to advance the ed
vocational interest of the county, and for
that purpose its meetings are held at
different points in the county and the
public generally are invited. Subjects
are selected at one meeting for discus

after which the meeting was called to
order again. The standing committees
made their reports, and then the Rev.
F. M. Edwards, of NJ. E. Church)
Murfreesboro, delivered an eloquent
address, which was listened to attentive
| ly by all present. He was warm and
earnest in his advocacy of better
schools and longer terms, and
insisted that the State should appropri.
ate more money for such schools and
pay good teachers reasonable salaries
that it is the duty of the State and not
the Church to maintain the primary
schools, and that the education should
fit the boys and girls for their final des
tiny, and not merely for their present
existence in this world
The Association decided to hold its
next session at Rich Square, July 30th

It is very amusing to hear these wild

Kinley bill. They tell us that under the

price of every necessary of life is sinking
lower and lower, like an ebbing tide.
Why, by and by, they say-that is, if

CRISP WILL BE SPEAKER.

A Washington special stated
that it was announced in Wash
ington that a deal had been made,
by the terms of which the in
fuence of Tammany hall was to
be lsed in the interest of Judge
Crisp, of Georgia, for speaker,
and that the southern support
ers of Crisp were to vote for ex-
Congressman Turner, for door
keeper of the next House.
Commissioner Thomas +. Gil
roy, one of the grand sachems of
Tanmany, was shown the dis
patch and asked if it was true.
He said he had never heard of
any such deal. He thought the
New York delegation in congress
would vote for Crispfor speaker.
but there was no sort of Tam
many deal connected with their
support.
Another prominent Tammany
man is reported as SAYING that
the leaders of the orga niza ton
were too good politicians to
make any such deals. The sup
port of Crisp by the New York
delegation, he said, would be
given without any trading.

The address delivered few days
ago in Atlanta by Generel Henry r.
Jackson on the Wanderer case open
ed up the whole question Of the re-
sponsiblility of the South for the IN
PRODUCTION of slavery into America,
and is one of the ablest and most
complete defenses of this section in
that connection which has appeared
in late years from any Southern wri-
ter or speaker. The Young Mems
Library Association of Atlanta, be-
fore whom the address was delivered
have filed it for permanent preser-
walton. The written history of the
South as yet consists in such detached
papers, whether prepared before or
since the war, and sin ability and
thorougbness they are, as far as they
20, unsurpassed by any detached pa
pers of the same character to b
found among the English-speakina
people. General Jackson's address
