people will subscribe for a Georgia or
a Northern paper and sead the mon

iheir home shfet at the end of the

what gels some benefit directly or in
dirtctly from his local paper yel if
the smallest thing don't suit and the
editor is rot with them on every
point, they both get severe criticism
or acmsin. The C ounty will never
make ihe .advancement and strides
forward till our people learn to work
together, patron ze each other, trust
and confidence home eaterprises in
stead of foreign, then success will
begin to dawn in our land.

The Principal of this school in

an enrollment of 102 pupils. I. is
very gratifying to us, that an eater

inception exhibit such visible signs
of life and give such encouraging
promise of permanent success.

cess however, when the Trustees in
trusted the management of the In
stitute to Prof. J C Clifford wno
came to us so highly recommended
as a first-class teacher. To as, the
Principal seems to have made no! ef
fort towards stirring up a great boom
io behalf of his sceool, but judging
from the steady increase in its pats
ronage, each day seems to add to: Its
popularity, and Jt is by degrees ex
tending its influence to the surround
ing counties and drawing from them
some excellent students.
It would be hard however for any
principal to fail white he has the as-

Tbe Association.
We. went to the Little River Asso
ciation last week Prof. Clifford and
ye Editor. We cannot say that we
created an great sensation on our
journey except that which bhou'd be
credited to the steed which we drove,
whose long strides and caraeKlike
swing more closely resembled the
movements of one on roller skates
than anything else we can think of
just now; nor can we claim to have
made any sensation after we reached
our destination unless it wa3 made
by the relish with which we destroyed
a considerable portion of the su npt
uous feast with which the good ladies
literally' covered the ground shortly
after our arrival. j
The Association was well attended,
the speeches were in the main, of a
high order, and while verj' few of the
recognized leaders of the denominas
tion were present, the members of
the Association showed that they
were well able to take care of their
own business, and in an admirable
manner, to push forward ttie great
work committed to their trust. No
feature of the session was mor-? no
ticeable than the excellent singing
conducted by Prof. Rogers. Tue
choir showed thorough training and
did much to' render true Prof. Ciimp
bell's words : -This has been the
best session of ihe Little River Asso
ciation." But to two aspiring ba.:he!or3 like
the Professor and ouraelf. the most
striking feature was the lovely young
hdies present. It occurred to u.
that one niiht close his eyah and
choose from these and not be cheated
iiii tue least. But alas! We didn't
i have the privilege of a choice even
withour eyes wide open ss they
i were looking for such an opportunity . I
