Correspondence of The Observer. ,.. t . .
Chapel Hill, June 21.-Exercises
were opened on Thursday morning by
reading of Scripture, singing andpray
i tT, Hifffirftnt sections and
clashes then. Retired to-ibeir resjectlv;i
recitation rooms to reciw '
glish and analysis under Prof. Tillett,
chemistry under Prof. Phillips, and Lat
in and algebra under Prof. Noble.
Meanwhile Prof. Mclver gave his ac
customed lecture on mathematics. His
manner of teaching is the most clear
and forcible we have ever heard. Ex
perienced teachers say they never heard
such ideas of astonishing research and
thought advanced. He teaches that a
thing is so" to be a minor consideration,
but the stress is laid upon why it is so.
The effectiveness of his methods is ad
mired by all, and he no doubt will cause
a complete revolution in the system of
teaching the lower branches of mathe
matics. His lectures are largely at
tended. Prof. Mclver needs nothing
more said of him than the mere men
tion of his name tb assure the people
that he is the man for the place. His
reputation is as wide as the bounds of
our State, and he is recognized as the
equal, if not the superior, of any math
ematician in the State. His lectures
are one of the most attractive features
of the session.
Prof. Tomlinson then gave a lecture
on grammar. He is a complete master
of the subject, handling it as a child
does a bauble. He shows the deficien
cies of most text books on the subject;
that most of them are worthless, and
those of any value are far above the
reach of the child under twelve or four
teen years of age. His address was
characterized as snowing the true schol
ar, and that he is up with the times.
Capt. Dugger then gave some methods
for teaching children to 'read. Says
reading is too much of a mechanical
process, as it is not taught as being
good talking, which in fact it is. A sen
tence is not simply a succession of
words, but is a continuous idea, a sense- i
word. His time passed very pleasantly.
At 12 o'clock all assembled in the
chapel to hear the lecture of Prof. Ladd,
who is a very popular lecturer. He han
dled his subject in such a manner as to
interest and iastruct the old, and amuse
the young. He possesses great power
of drawing attention, &a, to himself,
and there confining it until he has fin
ished. He said that a teacher must have
a thorough knowledge of the subject to
be taught; must digest it, acquire the
tact of presenting it in its best light,
and must be a good physiognomist,
"The proper study of mankind is man,"
and the teacher must thoroughly appre
ciate this, His sallies of wit were most
excellent, and gave all a hearty appetite
for dinner. .
Professors Mclver, Dugger and Tom
linson assisted the treating of the sub
ject at the close by Prof. Ladd. Dinner
put an end to all further proceedings.
In the afternoon the school assembled
in the chapel and were more particular
ly arranged into classes, after which
they all dispersed to their recitation
rooms.
In the evening, from 7 to 8 o'clock,
Prof. Tillett lectured on the "Influence
of Shakspeare's "Works on the English
Language." His course cannot be too
much praised. We all know how much
Prof. Page's lectures were valued and
appreciated last year. Prof. Tillett is
his equal, if not his superior. He spent
two years at Princeton, and received
the degree of A. M. He has a large and
intelligent class of pupils and hearers,
and their punctuality in attendance and
interest is very great.
This closed the exercises on Thurs
day. Friday morning the exercises were
opened as usual.
Lecture made by Prof, Mclver on
mathematics, and by Prof. Tomlinson
on grammar. At 12 o'clock all the stu
dents assembled in the chapel to hear
Prof. Ladd's accustoml lecture, which,
as usual, was humorous, pleasing, in
structive, and interesting. He spoke of
the death of a prominent member of
the last session of the normal school.
The accustomed evening exercises
passed off as usual.
As had been made generally known,
there was a social exercise in the Uni
versity library liall Friday evening at
9, o'clock. It is familiarly known as
the "cold-water walk around." It is
given for the purpose of giving thfinor
malites an opportunity- of getting ac
quainted with each other, so that they
may the better enjoy their stay. With
few exceptions all the normalites,anfl a
good many villagers, were present. It
was conducted by the managers "ap
pointed for the occasion, viz : Messrs. li.
P. Pell (chief), A. Phillips, E. L," Harris,
E. A. Alderman, Ford and Faucett,
They deserve compliments for the gen
tlemanly and orderly way in which
they conducted it. They took great
pleasure in introducing, seeing to the
enjoyment of the crowd,lfce,. The halls
of the two literary -societies were open
and lighted up, and they were quite a
desirable retreat to a great many.
About 10 o'clock, at the request of
President Battle-and others, Capt. Dug
ger gave a few exercises in elementary
calisthenics,? ne: had four Jong rowsr
extending over more i than half the
length of the hall, two of ladies and two
of gentlemen. He consumed about half
an hour in this manner, which was
much enjoyed by the spectators. TJpOn
the whole the exercises were splendid,
though of course the lack of Dractice
prevented the harmony unfit and unli
form motion and time "which nsually

Saturday morning the exercisea wire
ooened as usual. Prof.' Ladd t.hn anniro
of the death of Mr. Hinton, a prominent
teacnennuusistate ana a member of
...s the last normal school, and Judge W- H.
Battle who died sometime since. Spoke
very effectively of Mr. Hinton.-his

celebrated author, as a last tribute. r ,
' The Normal School Debating Society
was then organized with about 80 or 35
members. Mr. E; P. Pell tfas elected

fimrx in r.harcre announce themselves as

BRIEF NEWS ITEMS.
It is said that Senator Edmunds is ut
terly broken in health, and it Is doubt
ful if he ever takes his seat again in the
Senate. .in: : :
Alexander Taylor, formerly of the
Haymaker Base Ball Club, of Troy, but
this season catcher of the Star Club, of
Ballston, N. Y., was fatally struck with
a bat by a Knickerbocker during a game
at Ballston Sat urday. , , - j-
A freight train on the Chicago and
Northwestern Railway was thrown
from the track near London, Iowa, Sat
urday. Four tramps, concealed in a car
loaded with corn, were killed, and the
conductor was fatally injured.
The stolen jewelry from Mrs. Hull's
room has been found in a Boston pawn
shop by two ladies who were familiar
with it, having gone on to identify it.
It was pawned there the day after the
murder, by a negro. Arrests will be
made at once.
Governor Robinson, of New York,
has vetoed the tramp bill on the ground
that its definitions were too general and
that it endowed the police with powers
of a questionable nature in making ar
rests. He signed the bill reducing the
rate of interest from 7 to 6 per cent
The Hlinois Legislature was a dis
graceful mob. The last hours of the
Senate were given up to rioting. Books,
paper, inkstands and spittoons flew
around the hall like shot, The clerk of
the House having entered the Senate to
make an orhcial announcement, was
promptly knocked down.
Governor Roberts, of Texas, has been
presented by a grand jury of one of the
counties in the State as unfit for the po
sition he occupies, and as countenanc
ing crime by his acts. He has likewise
been denounced by an indignation meet
ing of citizens. The particular offense
charged is commutation of the death
sentence of two murderers.
Hon. A. E. Borie, ex-Secretary of the
Navy, who has been traveling , with
General Grant in foreign lands since

Iowa, Saturday, over the Union Pacific.
from Shanghai, China, being en route
home to Philadelphia. In conversation
with a reporter, Mr. Borie said General
Grant would probably reach San Fran
cisco on the 10th of September.
A very funny scene was enacted in
the Senate last Friday night. When
Senator Conkling was nearly through
speaking, every newspaper represent
ative, of whom about forty were in the
reporters' gallery, arose simultaneously
and left the chamber, and did not return
until the Seitator finished. As he took
his seat they returned immediately, and
raised quite a titter among the Senators,
who had noticed the movement.
THE I-ATI AR-COIVKI.I'VG MATTER.
roinniPiitM and Speculation of Their

Wasli. Correspondence New York Times.
During the day there has been con
siderable talk about a challenge, and
the code duello has been discussed with
reference to which of the gentlemen is
required to mate the rust movement
Mr. Conkling will not talk about the
matter, but his mends scout the idea of
his sending a challenge. Thev think if
Mr. Lamar can rest under the eDitheta
applied to him, Mr. Conkling should be
satisfied, On the other hand, the friends
of Mr. Lamar say that he first put the
insult upon Mr. Conkling, and that
when that gentleman replied with the
qualifying "if," that Mr, Lamar retorted
that he did intend to sav and to mean
just what Mr. Conkling inferred from
ns language, and that Mr. Conklimr.
therefore, having this assurance of the
purpose of Mr. Lamar to put an insult
upon him, is bound to demand that sat
isfaction accorded by one gentleman to
another. While it is believed that no
thing further will result from this un
fortunate controversy, there is a feel

It is an excellent corrective of indigestion. Have
used it with prompt beneficial results.
Rev. Dr. Mangum, Prof. University of N. C.
I concur with Bishop Doggett In his estimate or
the Vest Pocket Cure.
Rev. E. A. Yates, P. E. N. C. Conference.
It has benefitted me. Send another package.
Rev. Leroy M. Lee, D. D., Meth. Hist'n.
I am never without it at home or abroad. It is
an antidote to indigestion. Uneasiness after a
meal or purging is checked and the bowels regula
ted. Its merits are attested by numbers of high
character. I have seen a "tried-everythlng" dys
peptic of fifteen years relieved ky one dose.
Rev. Drs. Jeter, Broaddus, Dickinson (Bap.)
It Is endorsed by the direct personal testimony
of men of national fame and of strictness of
speech. It is not too much to say that no medicine
eyer had such support In its favor as a specific.
The word of any one of the eminent divines who
underwrite this antidote to dyspepsia has deserved
weight. Their united witness joined with the ex
perimental use and approval of the preparation by
well-known physicians, removes all doubt. It is,
beyond Question, a wonderful therapeutical agent.
Editors Religious Herald, Va.
Rev. B. L. Dabney, LL. D., Ham. Sid. CoL, Va.
It is highly esteemed here by the regular Medi
cal Faculty and the neoole. It is excellent for in
digestion and flatulent colic sedative, soporific,
tonic, slightly aperient, without nausea.
