Editor of Wilmington Stari
I have been : furnished with a copy of
your paper of the 15th inst., contain-
mgl a : trienaiy criticism - upon
the
policy of the . Trustees of , the Pea
body Education j Fund ! I ask . the
liberty of making a few i statements
and explanations. , There - is no
secrecy nor mystery in the plans of
the Board, and any suggestions tend-
insr to help in the more useful distri-
burton of the income pi the Fund will
'bo.'nlrfttnyr;re4eived.'l: The Trus
tees, unselfishly, give rgpich time and
thought to tie subject, and desire : so
: to administer! the Fund as best to ac
comnlish the munificent : trust ' of
whictr they ; are the honored; cus
todians. ; Although the 'process of
admi ristration has been in operation
since 1867, and twenty, full reports
have been published, much misap-

I Fundi an d thi oft declared policy; of
the Trustees, I Numerous applications
for a wide variety of objects come to
me nearly K every day. Letters ' con
stant! come asking help, for Sunday
schools, for building and furnishing
school houses,! for lagencyj' work, for
lectnr r, for indigent pupils, for de
nomin itiorial lj schools, for libraries,

the income for the promotion an
eourascement of "Education ar
en-
hiofttirtn am n nor
the young of the more destitute por
tions o ' the Southern. I and Southwest
ern Stj.tes." Mr. Pea body left "an
absolute discretion" to the - Trustees
as to tlie localities in which the funds
shoul be expended, and !,vas ca ref u
to negative the idea that! the benefits
of the Fund vrere to be distributed
upon any measure' of! proportion
among the States, or that any State
had a claim to! a distributive share.
The Education! Fund was not in
tend c i as a charity to the poorx nor
is it to be distributed f in proportion
to the population, nor on the basis of
indigence or illiteracy. To distribute
on the basis of destitution or illite
racy jjwouldf ail of, giving any effect
ual relief or producing, any perma
nent results. To distribute per capita
acco -ding . to aggregate; population,
or school : population, would hardly
buy Ja McGuff ey's Reader for each
child. I-
Ait an early period, ; t wo related
plans, which have been perservingly
adhered to, were decided on by the
f Trustees:. First, to aid special schools,
complying with certain! prescribed
conditions; and, secondly, to aid in
trailing teachers :for public schools.
The object kept steadily in view was
the encouragement of a permanent
: system of free schools, and the only
- feasible or possible mode of accom
plishing this object was to act in con
junction witli ; State systems of in
struction as soon as organized, and;
through State officers, responsible to!
thir constituents. This cooperation;
ha not been departed from and the
various Superintendents of Public In
struction have much lightened the!
labors of the General Agents,and have
shown a zeal, ability and patriotism!
wfcicb. the people whom they serve
shjould not be slow ' to recognize and
honor. ! .
No pledge has ever ; been given
that all schools complying with the
conditions, should receive, or could
lustly claim, Peabody Aid. As the.
iricome of the Fund does not exceed!
$100,000 annually, only a few schools
can be aided,' and a special arrange
ment must be made with them through
the State Superintendents. In mak
ing a selection, schools located at in
fluential points have the preference,
apd all schools aided ' must be free,
be properly graded, must have at
least one : hundred pupils, with one
fcpacher for every fifty, and must con
tinue in session nine or ; ten months.
In no instance has the entire or chief
ost of maintaining schools been met
By the Trustees. Funds are given to
timulate and encourage those who
provide for the principal part of the
r expense. : To ( help , those who help
. themselves has been : considered as
he most effective plan in producing
I 'a permanent and self sustaining sys
Item of popular education." As Dr.
- Jears said inl867,"it appears tobe best
sum wusi, congenial ;xo our iorms. oi
government to have the 'schools sup-
Jported in part from a State fund, but
chiefly by local taxation."
' As soon as a State or a community
shows an ability; and willingness to
sustam free schools, Peabody aid is
witnarawn, ana nence, in? ibbi, no
public school in Virginia was aided.
Some States in the last Report pre
sent a beggarly account" of receipts,
uui uecause oi iavonusui or partial
ty in the ad'ministrilion of the Fund,
but because the applications for aid
were not made, or, if made, the con
ditkms precedent were not met. ' f-
in l-eijrosry, 1881, the iSoard di
rected the General Agent to apply
only two-Tths of the annual expen
diture inssLiin public schools, and
to -waKkrather in the ! line of educa-
tinr teachers for the public, schools.
TeadcTs Trsiitutes iJieref ore, have
leen ssxorted in most of the States.
These are Trainable auxiliaries in the
work of teacher-training, and help
to them will - be continued. ' More
liberal help will be given to Normal
Schools established and controlled
by States as a part of the system of
public;: schools. If North Carolina
Will establish and make an appropri
ation for 'Normal .Schools for white
and colored teachers, aid will be af
forded. Texas was - encouraged to
establish a ' Normal College. Aid
was promised and -supplied. The
Trustees have seen their efforts am
ply rewarded, for the last Legislature
increased the State appropriation
from 114,000 to $20,000. '

A lions Journey Crowned with Disap
pointment, j.
About a year ago one John Newton and
wife arrived here . from the neighborhood
of Raleigh, on their way to Florida. Being
in destitute circumstances they - applied at
the station house and received temporary
accommodations. They stated that they
had only been married about three months
when Jfewton became paralyzed and una
ble to work, having to use crutches; that
he was formerly a resident of Granville and
his wife of Halifax; and that he had a bro
ther in Florida, who had written to him
urging him to come to him in the "land of
flowers" and he would assist him, at the
same time telling him that when he gat as
far as Atlanta he would find some money
subject to his order to help him on his way.
They were finally furnished transportation
from " here to , Florence, and eventu
ally succeeded in reaching Atlanta,
where, Mrs. Newton says, they : stopped
and waited for some time for the promised
funds, she in the meantime working to sup
port herself and husband, but they neyer
came to - hand. ' Finally " they made .their
way to Florida, and to the place where Mr.
Newton's brother was supposed to be liv
ing, hut could neither find him or hear any
thing as to his whereabouts. Here Mrs. N.
again went to work, and, after a season! of
untiring exertion, succeeded Z in raising
enough money to help them this far on their
way back to their old home; the long trip,
with all its difficulties, trials and disappoint
ments, being made for nothing. The long
suffering but patient couple again reached
here Tuesday evening, and upon applica
tion, were accorded the same accommoda
tion at the station house that they former
ly received, pending, the continuance of
their tedious journey homewards. " I '

Not every,, one so cheerfully communi
cates his knowledge and opinions as recent
ly did E. L. Loweree, Esq., cashier of the
Cincinnati Southern Railway, that splendid
outlet to the - South from -the Ohio. Our
representative, waited upon Mr Loweree,
and in reply to certain questions the latter
gentleman observed. "I was suffering from
a very severe auacK oi . rneumausm : m my
right foot; it was in' a terrible condition;
the pain was almost intolerable;' our fami
ly physician waited on me without success:
I sent for another well known M. D., but
even the twain could do nothing for me; I
could not get down here to the office to at
tend to my duties; in fact I could not put
my foot under me at all, and after nine
weeks suffering I began to grow desperate.
My friend (whom of course you know, for
he is known by everybody),. Mr. Stacey
Hill, of the Mount Auburn Inclined Plane
Railroad Co. . called to see me : he snoke very
highly of - St. Jacobs OiL and recommend-
i . . , . t . A
ea ine remeayr in me an giowmg icnus.
I laughed at the idea of using a pro
prietary medicine, and yet the party recom
mending it,(Mr. Stacey Hill, remember),be
ing a man of sound judgment, set me to
thinking the matter over. The next day,
when v the physician; called, ' I " oUsmissed
them, and said to , myself that I would let
nature take its course. That resolution
lasted just a day On the following morn
ing I, in a fit of desperation, sent a servant
for a bottle of St. Jacobs .Oil. -I applied
that wonderful remedy, - and it penetrated
me so that I thought my foot was about to
fall off, but it did not; in fact it did just the
opposite. ' The next morning the pain had
entirely" left , my foot, the swelling was re
duced, and really the appearance was so dif
ferent altogether from the day before, that
it actually surprised me. ; I applied more of
the St. Jacobs' Oil, and that afternoon I
walked down here to the office, and, was
able to attend to my duties and get around
as well as any one. Let me say for St- Ja
cobs Oil that it Uati railroad time, and is
always sure to win. Cincinnati Enquirer.

Charlotte Obseroer: As a Dem
ocratic paper we ask Col. Johnston the fol
lowing questions, a candid answer to which
is due to the party with, which Col. ' John
ston has affiliated and to himself if he is
not correctly represented: Did Col. John
ston state to the President, as represented, ,
that "we desire to see the Democracy of '
North Carolina defeated in the next elec
tion?" "We further ask Col. Johnston the
question, 'does he desire to see the De
mocracy of North Carolina defeated in the i
next election?" . In this connection it
is due the management to Btate that they
are in no wise to blame for the manner in
which the Markham, Company cut "The
Two Orphans" . Thursday night. It was
understood before the performance com
menced that the company intended leaving
for Wilmington at 10:30, but a promise was
exacted by the management that the piece
should not be cut, which promise was not
kept ; ,It is a fraud on the audience to act
thus, and hut for the miserably poor render
ing we have no doubt the company, would
have heard a protest;-; As it was, every one
was glad to escape. -
