Up ward of 200 applications were re ceived during the month of May from teachers in all parts of the South. The successful candidates were chosen from an eligible list of 110 names. Two of the appointees will specialize in manual training, one in primary teaching, and three in normal school or administrative work It was long a Gxed idea that silver mixed with the bell metal improved the tone, but this is now considered in correct. The Acton Nightingale and Silver Bell, two singularly sweet bells at St. John's college, Cambridge, are said to have a mixture of silver, but If true this is not believed by compe tent authorities to be the cause of their beautiful tone. This idea led to the Etory of the monk Tandio concealing the silver given hhu by Charlemagne and casting tlie bell in the monastery of St. Tan! of inferior metal, where upon he was struck by the clapper and killed. In the r.iuth century bells were made in Fiance of iron. They have been cast in steel, and the tone has been found nearly equal in fineness to that of the boll metal, but, having less vibration, was deficient in length, and thick glass bells have been made whit give a beautiful sound, but are too brit tle to long withstand the strokes of the dapper. Gentleman's Magazine. HOW TO AVOID TROUBLE. The Inventor of the Match. The first match was the product of the Ingenuity of John Frederick Kom erer, who early in the nineteenth cen tury was imprisoned in the peniten tiary at Ilohenasperg, In Germany. He invented the lucifer match while in his gloomy dungeon. The German govern mcnt forbade the manufacture of matches on the ground of public policy, because some children playing "with them had caused a fire. Komerer was ruined by Viennese competition when he was released from prison and died tion" was a false one: that 'book learning'" crammed into the average country negro's head was a positive injury to him, because it unfitted him for following the plow and caused him to become a town loafer and criminal. And so it goes. But there is oue feature of edu cation about which there is lo question, and that is the splendid work ot the private educational iustitntious with which North Carolina is now blessed, and at which the young meu and women can secure tne best there ia to be had at a cost that is so sojhII as to make it a marvel, when its excel lence is considered; at some of these institutions. Take the col leges for irla and young women here iu Raleigh, for instance. ' I was in the best of these the other day. Peace Institute, and from what I saw and learned 1 could not retrain from wondering why in the world a Iforth Carolina patent should ever send his girls to a Northern college with such ad mirable iustitntuns here at home and costing less than half expenses of the former tuition, board, rail road fare and everything consid ered. Dr. Didwiddle, the Principal, is oue of the most successful educa tors in the South, and "Peace" is one of the oldest and most success ful of all the high grade colleges for girls. The faculty numbers a score of artists in their profession. The "Conservatory of Music'' of Peace Institute has no superior, and its School of Ait, and Com mercial Department are up to the top notcu ol excellence. Uur talented poet, Ileury Jerome Stockard, is a member of the faculty of Peace (English, Latin and German), and he is only a sample. North Carolina c.n al ways boast of its cultured women as long as it has such colleges as Peace and others to prepare them' and perfect them. There has been onsulerable comment on the action of Gov. A cock iu offering a reward of 100 each for the lynchers of the negro bovs (aged 12 and 10) who to brutally murdered a young white woman in Rowan comity, they having beaten her head into a pulp with stones and thrown the body into a ditch, where it was found. Sentimeut is divided in approval and condemnation of the Governor'd position. It is said that there were not less than fifty men in . the lynching party aud thetefore the total reward is fully 820,000. How much of it t he State will ever be called ou to pay is a question.
