Two speeches have been made by North Carolinians in Congress recently that we should like to present infuH to our. readers. Space failing ,; for this howeTer. we must do" th'e next best thine and print as much of each of them as possible. They were delivered hr Representatives i Hendersons and Green during the consideration ht the' Hurd-Romeie election contestjr and were both in support of the; fclaim. of Mr. Hard. Mr. Henderson's effort was a clear and powerful legal . argument. He took up the case as it was reported. and showed logically and conclusively .theiustice of Mr. Hutd's position. As he said in oenin he considered the Question wfthout feelings of -partisan bias or partiality, and his remarks bore all the force this method was calculated to lend them. "Upon the facet of the returns," he premised, Mr. Romeis, the sitting member, has a majority $f 239. Mr. Hurd claims that the returns frW three nrecincts should be rejeeted, and that certain illegal rotes should be de ducted from contestee's majority in the city of Toledo, and that the true re sult would snow a majority tor contest ant of 255. The contestant first im peaches the return from precinct . B ward 8, in the city of Toledo, and skg that it be rejected upon the following grounds : , (I.) The two Republican judges an pointed were residents of the precinct, while the Democratic judge1 was ; not. Upon an examination of the statute and its context 1 am thoroughly persuaded that this was an undoubted violation of the snirit if not of the letter tot the statute. The very purpose of the law was to require the judges of election to reside in : tne same-vicinage or neighborhood with the voters! The law intended that the judges-; and the voters should live together in-jthe same election precinct and vote 'at the same box. Amy other construction is narrow. strained,, and illiberal. Qui haeret in litera, haeret in cortice "It is the let ter which kilfeth." 1 .4 h : : ': . . (2) Both clerks were Republicans. while the statute required them to be of , different politics, . (3) At the close of the polls all the ' ballots were taken front the ballot-box and put upon the table in the presence of a lar number of nersonai twentv- fiveor more. The statute required the ballot box to be opened and the ballots to be taken out one at a time by, one of tne . )J . 1 . i-- nan ik.M'U a iwj--k J must examine the aame and nas.lt on to the third judge, who must 'string1 it on a thread and eVefully preserve it, &o - i" . i ..; .Ii, (.;:- ' j a 1 I t&T (4) The ballots were then'.counted - L r vi ;a?

"The next precinct to be oonsiilered is Kelly's Island. The vote ther- !was 128 for Romeis and 97- for Hurd; ma-, jority for llomeis HQ. - At the lat pre ceding general election, in Qctoberjl 'S83f the precinct had gone democratic by 55 majority. On this island Norman rid ly, who was engaged in grapgrhw4 ing' and stone quarrying, had iillhi employment about seventy? mep,! or 'nearly one-third of the voters bf the precinct.

But while we are train ing the intellect what do we do or tne body? All that the imind acquires comes through the senses, and it is, tf anything, more important to tram the eye, tne ear and the hand, tor eoueciing knowledge than the mind for receiving it. ' Through the eye, the ear ajid tne hand the store of knowledge accumu lated is to be applied in after life; It is upon these broad laws pi our being that the New Education rests its plea for physical, or as it is eallea, manual training. Manual training should have a place as a part of educa tion, all the way from the kinuergaiicn to the university, but especially as a part of the publio school system, m which the great mass of xhe people be gin and end their education ii tne Southern people would' develop their industries, render secure their influence in ihe nation and fill up their vast va cancies, they must put industrial: train ing into their Bchools. ": ; Our public schools give a one-sided training. A great majority ofl their pupils must earn their living by manual labor, yet we contradict, their Maker and teach them "In the . sweat of thy face shalt thou not eat bread. The advocates of the old system; claim that the publio schools ; only proposo to give general mental .training and were not designed to give any bent or train ing for any profession or trade; bit that this training is to be; ob tamed: afterwards. iut tne tact ia notorious that the publio schoot does tend to direct its pupils straightway into the mercantile and not the producing professions. This has gone to such degree in Boston and New York that the mercantile people have organised to stop the over -crowding of their calling They say that the boy who comes but of tne graaea scnooi is quaiinea to, ua a clerk and nothing else. As important as is this profession, is it wise to train all traders and no producers ? It is very much the same way with our colleges and universities. ?They propose to give only a; general educa tion, hut are, in fact, sending al their graduates into the mercantile or so-called learned professions, law, medicine teaching, etc. This is peculiarly absurd for a country like tne South, where nine men out of every ten must make their living at farming- Is all the higher education wanted in these pro fessions and none wanted in agrkul ture ? There t is something . radically wrong with such a system. In contending for manual training in the public schools we lull recognise that such instruction should be baled the single idea, complete developed of the whole man and preparation fo the duties of active life, and that no study can be allowed a place which can not be shown to have positive educational value. Some old-fashioned teachers would exclude manual training by; this test. : Without going to the extreme pf some friends of manual training,! who claim it is the only way to teaebj and that its introduction will 's tile 1! oir deserves a place alongside'Hif iureiv in- telleetnal training all the wy through our system of education The man is a unit and you cannot de velop him by halves, j. Manual training stimulates the miud most powerfully and mental education jrreatly assists the physical. Observatioa is as important as information. We must put things, material, lnninfm nA tnna intj-t' ) hands of the young, as well as worlsas books; we must give them a chance to leMn the properties of matter, the laws of natnral fnr an A .?mrir s.

If some of the ;last must go out of the coarse at the school to maie room for the first, let them go; and give the child a well-balancod ejdu. cation. .' ' J ) Every practical teacher knows thit a large majority of his pupils are very nartt to reach through books or lessons. that manual training is the key to open the intelligence of this large class of oWldren. ; I Bays Dr. Athens fiiygood : Atticus Hivsrood : "Hand- training quickens mental, faculties that no sort of text-book drill awakens and this is one of its chief blessings. Hand: eduoation helps to keep the brain baU, anced." Whue this U eminently true of all ohildren, the testimony of Gen eral Armstrong and all the eminent ed uoatori of negro people U that manual exercises have a most wonderful eScct in arousing and strengthening the minds of youth of that raco. The Peabody and Slater board regard in dustrial education as so important for these people that they have resolved to give their money as a premium to schoolsl teaching negroes manual train-; ing-' ! f - uut let no man thinK that this is i kind of education for the negro of the poor man's child alone. I In our ti mi and section it is, if possible, more im; portant for the rich man's ; son than the poor man s. ine son ot tne larmer of- the mechanic is far more likely to get, some industrial training at . home, and; to be able to make a . mechanio of himself, than is the son of the lawyer? or the merchant. The eons of the well-to-do-classes of- tne ooutn all propose at the start to make a living in some- other way than by earnest hand labor. I would say no word to impugn the manhood of this people, who have always proved them selves ; equal to every demand, but, as a Southerner, I do say that we do not rajse ; our chil dren with proper ideas of the dig nity of labor. Humble employments are held in contempt and humble pow ers in high offioes are ever v where mak win. . . ing the hih employments contemptible. Our Southern youth, of all in the world. need to be taught b honor labor, to re spect humble , callings and to walk in these modest paths of lift if necessary with contentment and glad industry. It has been bitter, bitter for us to realise our reduced estate and for 'twenty-five years wo fcave been living! too mnoh by me uws or a past civilisation and too beyond our moans. Our young men more alone and to devote themselves more and more to the simpler arts of peace.! The triumphs for them to win are the triumphs' of industry. since writing the above, 1 notice that our earnest superintendent of publio in struction construes my articcle on "The IS i- w Education as a criticism ot tne pui hi school system of this State. iNoitaeg was said about the; special school svstein of this' State." and I fully realize that a criticism of the com1- pletenfes8 of a system which, in spite of the noble efforts of our people, has not been able to keep its school houses open for over three months in the year would be decidedly premature. No ' one has a warmer admiratfon than I have for 'the wise, far-seeing, patient advocates of publio education in North; Carolina, who through long years of prejudice and ignorance have labored constantly fur the : upbuilding of this cause; and 1 should be justly considered presumptuous if I attacked the results of their work when: it is scarcely begun I know these brave men, I am proud to say, and luajor rjnger is one oi tnem Uur JNortb Carolina schools are in a strictly formative condition. For. this very reason i desire to call attention to a subject wnicn is miing tne minds of the I best thinkers at the North. Thie subject was the failure, not an absolute j failure of course, but a failure as Compared with the claims of its founders of forty years agc of the Massachusetts type of schools to promote thrift and morality among its citizens.; What I deplore is the tendency of some Southern teachers to follow blindly the methods; of New England, and I sought to call te atten tion of our educators to the defects of that system, so that we might avoid them These v re thought by some of the best wind -.a the North to be : 1. The absence (f proper moral and religious training. M i i 2. The one-si led character, , of the instruction, due to the. absence from their plans of indusUial education. The Major asks- me to propose reme dies for these defects. The remedies are suggested by the defects, and when I ventured the opinion that more moal and Bible instruction, and more indus trial training was needed in the Bchools, I knew that I would be supported by our best Southern educators, such a Major Finger. Knowing that the Major was a distinguished representative of one of our most conservative churches, I had no doubt about his views on the first point. Now I am, delighted to see that he is in favor of industrial school in the towns I sincerely hope and believe . that before we have half the same amount of money that they have in Massachusetts to spend in public schools, we .will hare made more ample provision for . this im portant additional instruction. . As to what is practicable to be done now, that is another and more dimcult .question one on which Major X inger s opin ions are worth more than mine. I hope .we shall be able to make a; modest but earnest start in the matter at some early,, time. , We ;muat begin in the towes, as the Majqr saysj. , After learn ing how to operate the schools success fully in one place, ;we can extepd them rJ n4tTn jH'nUt "t .whoIe State d. , This, is a subject of. the is cot ere deepest interest to all the people of the State, and I belieVe that the people ap preciate this: already to such a decree that they will, greet the establishment of the first v industrial, school in North Carolina as the token of a new I era not alone Jn the educational, but in the in dustrial life of the State. : There is very little demand grades of tobacco.
