the principal of the Portsmouth High
School, in which he takes the greatest
pride He is a graduate of the venerable
college of William and Mary, and is one
OF the most enthusiastic and energetic
teachers in the State. Both he and Mr..
Glass attribute the excellence OF the
schools in their respective cities to the
influence Of the School of Methods: for
there is hardly q teacher in the public
schools of these two cities that has not
attended the School of Methods for num-
Der of sessions
There are four other summer schools
in the State for the training Of teachers:
two of them for white and two for colored
teachers ana all of them run for four
weeks. They all do excellent work, but the
School of Methods by reason Of its strong
corps of experienced and learned teachers,
is regarded as the acme of the system, and
is ATTENDED by the largest number of
teachers. Ii rarely remains longer than
three consecutive years in one place il
being considered good policy to have it
held in many portions OF the State
as is consistent with the success of the
school.
1t will probably remain at Roanoke
one year after this, and will then prob
bly, be located at Stanton, which has al
ready made strenuous efforts TO secure it.
Richmond would be an ideal place for this
great summer school, and we hope to see
it here some of these days.

OF the Confederacy, and it will be delivered
as near his birthday as possible-on Tune
4th-'by the Rev. William Meade Dame,
Of Baltimore.
The Rev. Mr.. Dame, a veteran Howit-
ger, needs no Introduction to a Richmond
audience, and his lecture, which viii be an
adaptation Of his sermon at the unwilling
Of the Memorial Window to President Dav
Is in st. Paurs church, will oe worthy of
the occasion; as all who were privileged
to near the sermon, can testify the re-
cent action of the Virginia As
sembiy in making June Sd the birthday
of President Davis d holiday in the pub
lie schools, and otherwise marking 1t by
closing the public buildings a noon and

makes it especially fitting that the Con-
federate Memorial Literary Society should
honor the anniversary in this manner

fest its appreciation Of the opportunity TO
hear the eloquent lecturer on his noble
theme, by large audience on the night
of June 4th-the first year in which Presi-
dent Davis's birthday is celebrated in this,
the Capitol city Of his Confederacy.
