Permit me to send a lines to your
valuable paper, as I wish to tell your
readers something of the 'Institute
for the - teachers of Rockingham
county, which is now being held at
this place.
Your paper is always so keenly
alive to the. educational interests of
the State that I am very sure, you will
give me space in your, columns.' For
the past six ynars the cause of educa
tion in Rockingham county has-; been
steadily progressing, as indeed it
could not fail to do, under the leader
ship ojf its scholarly county superin
tendent, Mr. N. S. Smith, of Leaks
ville. ' ; - y
TheInstitute this year assembled
at the court-house in entvrorth, on
lhe 5th of Jane, and will dose to
day, July 6th. It is largely attended,
there being present seventy-eight
teachers from Rockingham : county
and several others from a distance.
And right here a tribute seems due
to the teachers who are now employed
in the. schools of Rockingham, for
surely 'their enthusiasm, their intel
lect and their social standing demand
it, and. your correspondent asserts
that the teachers there assembled are
most worthy representatives pi a
most noble profession. f
: The instructors at the Institute are

of a speech by Mr. Stewart a. ains'
the frequent exercise of thja vetf
power by tho President. There h nl
been, he said, about two Landred
bills vetoed by President Clevoinnd
most of them pension bills. As tne
average monthly pension was $12, the
whole of these bills involved an ex-
enditure .of only about $,400 a
month. Admitting that they, were
all wrong, that the committees of
both houses had been remiss in their
uties and that the two houses bad
been inattentive to their auties
and responsibilities, still he asked
whether the necessity was so :great
as to warrant the executive depart
ment of the government to assume
egislative powers. No reason could
be suggested why the form of, gov
ernment' should be changed tb save
such a pittance. lie protested against
the exercise of such power by the
President. ; .
Mr. Vest characterized Mr. Stew
art's propositton as monstrous, nd
delared that the President was as
much required, under his oath of
office, to Borutliize the smallest pen
sion bill and give it his approval, or
return it with his objections,
as he was required to - -do:
with the largest appropriation- bill.
ToJjold anything else in respect to
the veto power would be to render
hat provision of the Uonstitutidh ab
solutely null and make the govern
ment that which Mr. Hamilton in
tended to make it a government of
unlimited Congressional power..: The
provision that the amount involved in-
the bill had anything to do with the
construing of the Constitution was
absolutely without foundation.
The bill was referred to tne com
mittee on pensions. - :
The benate then, on motion or. Mr.
Cullom, proceeded to the considera
tkm of the Senate bill to amend; the
inter-State commerce act. The most
important changes in the existing
law are the following:
Requiring a reduction in the pub
lished rates, fares or charges, t be
made only after three days previous
public notice. Prohibiting advances
or joint rates of fares and charges
-shown upon joint tariffs) except
after ten days notice to the commis

into coiumittno ot Up whele (Mr.
Springer in tlm ohuir) on the tHr IT
bill, the petidin,;: question beiDg on
the Cannon a:nendiunt.
Mr. . Wilkinson, of - Louisiana, de
si9d to correct wlittt, he declared to
be m sstatcmenti made by the Outlc
men oh the other side to th'u t fleet
that the sugar industry of Louis. ana
was -a languishing industry. An in
dustry which, last year, had prod-need
three hundred and forty million
pounds of sugar could iiardiy be
termed a languishing industry. It bad
boen called a corpse, but if that wer
bo it was the liveliest corpse the world
had ever heard of. He quoted and
denied the assertion of the gentleman
from Iowa (Mr. liolman) that the
gigantic sugar trust was gotten up
for the berelit of tho twelve hundred
planters of Louisiana. Those twelve
undred planters (who employed be
tween two and three hundred thou
sand persons), instead of being in
with the sugar trust, were competi
tors of the sugar trust, and, instead
f helping to nut the price up, were
helping to put it down. In substan
tiation of tms view he quoted Iroai
he testimony taken before the com
mittee on manufactures to the; effect
that theLouisiana planters had reduced
the price of sugar, aud he was fur
ther substantiated by Mr. Buchanan,
of New Jersey, who, as a member of
that committee, stated that the trust
was unfriendly to the Louisiana producer.
The committee of the whole hasre-
ected Mr. Cannon'B amendment plac
ing on the free list sugar not above
No 1C Dutch standard, and reducing
the rates on other grades and grant
ing a bounty to the producers of su
gar.
Mr. Dmgley, of Maine, ottered an
amendment fixing the rate of duty on
sugar not above No. 13 Dutch stand
ard, testing not above seventy five
degrees' at seventy One hundredths of
a cent per pound, with an additional
duty of two one hundredths of a cent
per pound for each addi ional degree
or fraction of a degree. He stated
that the rate proposed by him1 was
exactly one half of the existing rate,
and if his proposition was adopted he
would follow it with am-ndments
making similar reductions in ot'uer
grades. Rejected, after debate. KG
an amendment which, while not in
terfering with the rates of duty pro
posed by the bill provides for a new

been indulged in by the sugar

This was also rejected after a some

two Breckenridges denied, that the

Niaoaiia Falls, N. Y , July G.
North Carolina is perhaps best
known, educationally, of all the
outhern StateB, and her teachors are
enjoying a fine reputation, and justly
earned, too, for progressiveness and
and aggressiveness. This fact is a
matter of great pleasure and pride to
those who love the old North State
and who delight in seeing her stead
ily and surely advancing in all her
school interests.
This tour which her teachers are
now making through the Northern
placet; of -prominence has added
greatly to their reputation for ambi
tion and the interest which our north
ern friends feel is manifested in hun
dreds of kind attentions and courte
sies which are betowed upon : our
party with unusually lavish hamd-
After a four days sojourn in JNew

falling waters.
We chartered ten carriages from
the Niagara Falls Omnibus Coj for
our party and we are soon visiting
and viewing from various positions
this most wonderful of natural won
ders to be seen on the earth. It is a
policy of the North Carolina teachers
when on a sight-seeing trip to ' see
things well," and it would not be
reckless to say that no other party

Avnrv possible point; and later on m
the dav. every store in the little city
was inspected in the search for sou
vnira of Niftara for preservation
One of the moBt enjoyable porCions
nf thA trip was crossme the suspen
sion bridge into Canada, for then
came ' the peculiar sensation of the
first viBit to a foreign country. Many
littlA Houveniis were purchased m
Canada, costing a mere tnnJe, dui tne
purchase gave the teachers an op
portunity of understanding Bomewhat

roal in New Y'ork, and to Mr. 11 are.
the agent at Niagara, for many favors
which added greatly to the pleasures
of our visit." Mr. Jagoa had tele
graphed ahead and in response we
found a nice, hot breakfast awaiting
our arrival at tne iNiaeara 1 louse.
to which breakfast we were ail fully
prepared to do justice.
In the afternoon, while waiting for
the departure of our train, we make
another and final visit to the Falls,
and as we stand at Prospect Point
where wo can almost tovuh the migh
ty cataract with the hand we are even
more impressed by the magnificence
and grandeur of the scene than at tho
first sight of it, and we
would fain linger for hours
and silently feast upon the beautiful
view, while our thoughts catch inspi
ration from tho entrancing loveliness
of the surroundings. We do not
hesita'e to dec!are thnt in our opinion
the American Falls are far more
splendid and fascinating than those
on the Canada side and this is a
source of gratification to our national
pride.
No happier or more profoundly
pleased party of people ba3 ever be
fore visited -Niagara rails than oar
North Carolina teacher?, nor have
any people ever more thoroughly
enjoyed the sight of these mighty,
falling, foaming, fussing a d frothing
waters, and brouc-ht away ryore de
lightful impressions of their visit.
And further we might say with all
truth that we do not believe any com
pany of tourists ever before aa hear
tily erjjoyed one another's so
ciety as our party is doing, and
as we watch the many happy and
congenial -couples which seem natu
rally to get together on all occasions,
we may not be far wrong in conclud
ing that we should hear from this
trip again when the marriage bells
are ringing out the joyful climax of
happiness which some hearts began
to experience on this tour of the
North Carolina teachers, and it may
may be that some of the congenial
spirits found each other amid'tue in
spiring meditations within the misty
shadows of the majeptic Niagara.
