that leaped in ruddy joy to tell
that Troy had fallen, so wher.
ever you see our schools and
churches stand over this broad
land of ours, they tell in silent
but potent language, that the
rule of the savage, the dominion
of the rough and reign of the
desperate have forever ceased,
and IN their stead Civilization
now unfurls and floats her flag.
And let US ever hope. let us ever
pray that hand-in-hand Religion
and Education Will keep step
with each other, and to the mu-
sicof the Union as they march
through this our lovely South
ern land.

aliuding to our churches in cor-
nectlon with our schools. They
always haye been and always
will be, powerful factors, III the
education Of our people, the
preservation Of our institutions,
and the advancement of our civ
iIization.
We cannot say too much in
behalf of our schools. Mississip
pi cannot do too much in their
behalf. Through them, up to
this good hour, much that en-
mobiles and elevates the human
race has been accomplished.
Yes, in the worlds march to a
higher and a better civilization

lead the van, By these, and
largely, by these alone, IN this
country, are to be drilled and
mustered those forces with which
are to be fought, in the years to
come, every civil moral, social
aud religious conflict.
The deathly dire of the minnie
ball, the bursting bomb, the
shrek of the shot and shell have
ceased. The smoke of battle is
not seen. The roll Of the drum
is no longer heard. The bugle's
blast has died away. Thanks be
to God, these United States, are
at peace with each other, and
with the nations of the earth.
We war no longer. But let US
through our schools and churches
marshall our Intellectual forces
for the conflict of the future.

that the triumphs and victories
of peace far outshine those of

In concluding General Nash
spoke feelingly Of the great i'm
portance of the education of our
width Southern population,
speaking substantially along the
following lines:
Our High Schools, our Public
Schools, our Institutes and Col
leges, our State University, all
are necessary for the education
of the minds, the hearts, the
hands of our children, aad thus
prepare them, in any desired
way, to fight SUCCESSFULLY if they
will, the battles of life. Fit and
prepare them by having them,
to drink from these fountains of
knowledge gushing.so to speak,
out of our own soil. Who will
deny that all our educational in
stitutions form, or will form,
when complete, we'll nigh per
feet Southern Educational Sys-
! TEN. [ sincerely believe the good
people of the State, through
their representatives, the law
making power, will sustain in
the future as in the past our
most admirable Southern Educa-
tional System, system second
to none, and to do, at all times,
} what is Or may be proper, and
necessary, to perfect it in all
essential particulars.
AS for myself, | have ever
been, and shall ever be in perfect
accord and in sympathy with
every we'll directed effort to pro-
mote and advance the cause of
education in all proper direct
ions. The cause of public edu-
cation. next to the home and the
freside, next to the cause Of
religion, lies today nearest the
hearts of our people. II ever we
expect to see in this country, the
glory that was Of Greece, the
grandeur that was of Rome, it
must be wrought out largely
through our churches and our
schools, For it is a fact, that
out among the masses, as the
cause of education advances the
people advance. AS the school
house goes up in any community
ere long you see the church of
the living God building by it's
side. And the reverse Of this
proposition is also true, for as
you see our churches prosper,
our schools do also flourish. The
universal education of our white
population, and the Christian
religion are two of the great
corner pillars upon which this
government rests; knock either
away and down falls the temple
itself. Like the watch fires kin.

Staqc Snow,


 In Personal "Reminiscences of Hen ry Irving" Bram Stoker lets his read CTS into the secret of how the snow scene In '"The Corsican Brothers" was made so effective
 "All over the stage was thick blan ket of snow, white and glistening in the winter sunrse-Snow that lay so thick that when the duelists, stripped and armed, stood face to face they each secured a firmer foothold by clearing it away. Of many wonderful effects this snow was perhaps the strongest and most impressive of real ity. The public could never imagine how 1t was done. It was Salt-common coarse salt-which was white ill the appointed light and glistened like real snow. There were tons of it. A crowd of men stood ready in the wings with little baggage trucks sucN as are now used in the corridors of great hCtels, silent with rubber wheels. On them were great wide mouthed sacks full Of salt. When the signal came they rush. cd in on all sides. each to his appoint ed spot. and tumbled out his load, spreading it evenly with great wide bladed wooden shovels.''

Tuni1d Bells.

What a beautiful tone that bell has"' is often heard. There are few. however, who know how bell re- ceives it's joyful or solemn tones. All bells after they are cast and finished must go through a process of tuning the same as any other musical instru- ment before they respond with clear. true tone. Every bell sounds five notes, which must blend together in order to produce perfect harmony. The tuning Of a bell is done by means of shaving thin bits from various parts of the metal. It is as easy for an ex= pert bell tuner to put a bell in tune as it is for d piano tuner to adjust his instrument to perfect chords. At first bought it would seem that bell would be ruined should tuner shave eff too much at the last tuning. or the fifth sound, but such is not the case lie would, however, be obliged to be gin over, starting again with the first tone and shaving the bell till it gave forth it's harmonious sound at the fifth tene.-Scientifc American

Scott Relics at Ahlatsf ard.

The present estate of AbhotSf0rd was formed during the years lS1l to 1S14 from various small farms. the first ,otl, purchased bearing the "inhaImo- nious designation" Clarty Hole. After Sil.
