Committee on Education.

Editor The Advertiser:
 In your Convention notes on the morning of the 18th you say:
 .Section F was then read. It au- thorizes the levy of a special tax by counties for school purposes.
 "A minority report signed by Messrs. AShcraft, Hodges, Pettus and Opp, pro- vided for dividing the fund between the races in proportion to the taxes paid"
 You do not correctly state the pur- pose of the minority. They made no such proposition. The minority be- lieved that something more than money is necessary to the development of an effective common school system. The chief point in their report was the or ganization of each race into school dis tricts. They then proposed that for the purpose of building or improving school houses or for supplementing the general school fund. each school cor poration might make a special assess ment of one-tenth of one percentum upon its members. It meant new share of peace and progress for both races. The minority were defeated and so were the hopes of the great body of the white people of Alabama. x.

fallen in twentyfour hours. Heavy to excessive rains were quite general dur ing the twenty-four hours ending at ' a. m. yesterday over Northern Mis- sissippi, Northern Alabama, Tennessee and Arkansas. The storm had dimin- ished it's energy slightly, but may re- gain some of its force as it curves eastward, which it will probably do after reaching the Ohio Valley.
 At Tupelo, Miss. eight inches of rain fell in twenty-four hours, and it is ex- pected that flood stages will prevail in the Tombigbee River today and Mon@, day. Planters along this river have been advised by the Weather Bureau office at Mobile to mqxelHFe stock from the low grounds. E
 The Coosa and Alabama Rivers are rising steadily, but slowly. and no dangerous stage in either of these rivers is apprehended on this rise. A bulle- tin of the lc al office of the Weather Bureau says the highest stage at Mont gomery will not exceed, and probably will not reach, eighteen feet.

the pail has a screw-threaded fiange, to
which a receiving bowl is secured by a

strainer is an open frame In which is
placed loose cone corresponding in

observes the Youths Companion. One
relates to that extreme, correctively
critical attitude which Secretary Sc
ward always maintained toward the
President. Mr.. Lincoln and the secre-
tary had managed to escape from a
man who had been boring the0l, and
as they reached the house the Presi-
dent threw himself into an armchair
and exclaimed by jings! governor,
we are here!" Mr.. Seward replied by
asking in reproving tone: Mr.. Presi
dent, where did you learn that inele-
CANT expression? Mr.. Lincoln imme-
diately turned to several young men
who had entered the room in time to
hear the exclamation, and said:
Young gentlemen, excuse me for
swearing before you. BY jings' is
swearing. for my good old mother
taught me that anything that by

The authorities OF Philadelphia in par

special committee to wait on the Presi-
dent and urge him to accept the ses'v-
ices OF such brigade. The committee
was tedious and long-winded. and the
President was anxious to get back to
the public business which demanded
his attention. Finally. seeing no pros

in the usual way. he interrupted one
OF the orators In the midst of a grand
