In looking ovter ‘jhe StatV JireKs 'Speaking in reference to the guberoa-t torial race, we find that it largely fa vor* A. 0. Bacon. It will taka a jo* 'tiijeious combination ot infloencea and heavy “wire polling’' to defeat bis nomination. No true citizen of Geor gia has nought to «ay against Gon. Goidon, bii| Bacon is precedent in the opinion of the for governor, '■fey.' —* The question®! between employer* and employed ie being practically tested in'Washitigton. A disagreement which recently arose be tween the .Associated Press Publishers and Typographical Union of that city has been referred to arbitration, and will be looked upon with n great defcl of interest as to its being the correct mode for settling disputes between la bor and capital. Gen. Gordon and Maj. Bacon have made their opening speeches in the campaign they have inaugurated for the nomination for Governor, and it dosen’t appear that there is any very great difference in their views with re spect to Btate matters. As anticipated, they are both in favor of the Railroad Commission. With reference So the the Stafift.road Maj, Bacon prefers that it should be leeued rather than sold, and Gen, Gordon offers pretty conclu sive evidence that the suggestion that he propose* to join with Senator Brown'to steal it is nothing more than a slander. With neither the State road matter, however, nor the system of dealing with the convicts will' the man who is elected Governor have much, if anything, to do. They will be Acted npon by the Legislature at the proper time. * CORRESPONDECE. THEMOEI«tIII«L. A Glowing and Deserved Trib ute to the Teachers and" Scholars of tho Institute. • Mr Editor: —We are frequently caused to rejoice, or weep, feel good or bad over events that occdr in our midst. Circumstances, time, placet and things all leave their impress up on onr minds either for our' good or our injury. With this idea in view, we ask. what is the feeling of the peo ple of Trenton toward the school that has just closed its third session ft thi% place with a public examination ot four days duration ? Are yon satis fied with the progress made by the students ? Have the teachers came up to yeur expectations? These are questions that present themselves to ail patrons of the school and it an swered in the as we feel satisfied they will, every one in the community should do all they could to sustain the school, advance the edu ■ *•* cational interest, build up the town, educate your children at home and save the heavy expense to be incur red by sending your children off from bon)#. Mr. Editor, with pleasure we men* the'unmistakable progress itiadA by the students of this InstliM .as evi denced by the prompt and unwaver ing manner in which, one *n<J alt an swered the questions i)nting their pub lie examination. Many times have we witnessed public examinations, but none have exceeded the one just closed. The students acquitted themselves in such way as to speak of the untiring care, labors and proficiency of the' teachers. - » % Times have changed,’ and' in this, iheerea of progress, ihe manner of in struction keeps pace with' other great improvements. This the most casual observer caunot fail to recognizs when they try to compare the mode of teach ing adapted in this Institute and the schools of a few ytais past. The switch sod rule with threatening words have been abandoned, and words of love spoken in kindness luh atitoted therefor, to the great advan tage of both RtQdaats an<s,teacher*. We could but observe ike thorough ness of the instruction while listaning to the vaiious classes during I heir ex am i nation. The several classes enme up to the exj»ectatious of all, and acquitted with credit to themselves and honor to their teacheis. The classes in history, though composed of very young chil dren, cannot be surpassed by bnt a few teachers,. We cannot ior the want of time and enci'daching to hcav »!y upon yonr space, mention the classes and students separately, bnt suffice to say, that the class in Geolo gy was excellent. The Arithmetic, Analyses, Geometry, Algebra, Botany and Geography classes were very good, and-showed that their time had not been wasted, but that each and every moment had been used to the best advantage, at the class dining recitation, in study hour, at ealle sthenics, or rest. Some think our school occupies too much time in marching and callesthenics, overlook ing, as we think, one fact, and a pot tent one too, that bodily exercise is one of the best means of resting the n.ind and sharpening the intellect of the stndeut, so as to make it susceptible to receive and retain instruction. The freqnent movement of the muscles of the body relieves the strain upon the mind and gives it that Interval o r rest which is so much needed by tr.’ stu dent. These inarches and ca Icsthen ic exercises gives that muscular move ment and mind-rest. The class in instrumental music composed of little girls, acquitted it self well—so did the vocal class. Both classes have been well taught. Theii examination speaks well for theii es timable teacher. The people of Trenton, and in fact of the whole county, should teel proud ot this school and sustain it with their patronage, and encourage it by words and acts. A good school is, a potent factor in building up and making prosperous any county. It makes a more pros perous and intelligent community, bet ter citizens, better church members, keep the jails empty, lessen litigation, and prepares the people for the en joyment of thia life and the life eome. Maintain the school and reap these benefits. , We most not overlook the little folks—the chart class—all were well pleased 'with this class and would have bejen g l ad%onld more time have boon given to examining it. " Mf- Editor The closing scene was good, that word expresses it. The Cleopian Society has not been idle. The rendition of “Sweet Ci'-ely,” as dramatized by the Society was well done In fact the Society made a happy l)it as the .closing scene of the examination. Many. The recent demonstration of the A o '- archist at Chicago ate most alarming, but eyen these acts of violence and bloodshead may in the end 8 salutary effect. Sometimes the pres ence and deadly character of a disease, and the medicine needed to curt it,, can be made apparent only by its breaking out on the suitace. It,.t!ie,sc acts ot violence and murder avail to awaken the people of Amenca to this great danger, the suffering and loss of life will be in vain. * We would think it very advisable in Gen. Gordon not to attempt to ex plain to the people his reason tor re signing from the Senate and accept* a private trust and office of a far great er salary, He need uot attempt to explain, nor is it necessaiy to deny the charges preferefi against him to the effect that his swlygct in <*. pear ing before the public in idem onstration at Atlanta and Montgomery entirely with the view ot getting tip a boom tor governor. It would only serve to make the mat< r worse with him. It is not a lack of faith or ■ .1 confidence in Gen. Got tou, but it is a tact that the people want Bacon with out auy attempt to explain it away. t .. m -> m - Mount Vesuvius is again in a stat of Eruption.
