A number of teachers from diff
ferent parts of the county attended
the Association last week. The
proceedings altogether were very
satisfactory; but the lecture at the
Academy of Music, Thursday
night, we are told, was rank; yes,
they say it was absolutely bum.
We were not present, but a num-
Der of the teachers have been very
outspoken in their criticism.
We are sorry to lose such good
people as Geo. A. Nifong and
family. Mr.. Nifong's health has
not been very good, and his trip
to Colorado the past summer
helped him so much, he decided to
make it his permanent home. He
has gone and his family will fol.
low shortly, and we hope for him
and them perfect restoration of
health. h.-Frederickto,Dn Tribune.

An exchange gives the folio wing
recipe for stocking up the peni-
tentiary: "When your boy doesn't
want to go to school, let him loaf
when he gets into mischief and
your neighbor reports it to you,
curse him in the presence of your
boy; do not reprimand the boy.
When he gets little larger and
purloins something of value and
you find it out just laugh>at it and
let it go; when he gets into trouble
that calls him to the justice court
and he is found guilty, pay the
fine, curse the court and jury and
every one connected with the mat
ter, pity the boy, and you will
soon have splendid candidate
for the pen."
