En.

Fifty four "schools have been open ed" in the county this school year. I have visited all of those schools, ex cept those of whose existence I receiv ed no information until they were closed, and eight others from which I was detained by sickness. SCHOOL HOUSES.

But a more urgent need, if possible, is to be found in the defect ive methods generally employed iu imparting instruction. Scholarship is worthless to a teacher as such unless he can impart it to others. It is evident, that other things being equal, he is the most valuable teacher who can unfold the iniuds of his pupils most rapidly uud store them with most useful knowl edge in a given time. An applicant may lrivd superior uiorul and schol arly lit doss for licensure to teacb and yet be a very iuferior teacher. iSuch has been demonstrated to be the fact iu notable instances. In order to the procurement of successful teachers it is to be regretted that the .Superin tendent i4 not warranted by law iu examining not only on schnlarly lit in s-i but also on methods of teaching. There is great need of an Institute for the benefit of the teachers purlic ularly in this matter. I hope the t3uc!ir8 of the county will avail themselves of the superior advantages of the state Normal hchool which will open June the 15th at Chapel Hill. (I mention this particular Normal School not invidiously but because it is to be equal to the best and is decidedly more convenient to tho teachers of Chatham couuty). I have beeu led to conclude notwith standing what I huvo s ii.l that much faithful work has been done. The names of many enthusiastic teachers are enrolled iu my books and if their zeal c-mtiuues unabated they should receive as they will deserve a place second iu honor to no other laborers for tlifi nil vaneeinent of their fellow- uieu iu uu uio I'leiiiuu'.a ui uiait-iiui i and moral prosperity. EIWISATION OK TKACHKHS. I have made the examination of ' teachois more seitrchin ami raised j the scholarship necessary to licensure j ! nigber tlian it lias ever neen in lue past.

Without t-flioieney in the teacher ! the school is a failure. Thus may be j seen the great responsibility a cousci- j entioui superintendent must feel to j be resting upou him in the discharge : of this duty. Feeling a desire to laithtuiiy tiiscuargu tuii nupuiMui. trust iu tho interest ol the cause of popular education, aud at the same i i to rlo lull iuslico to all applicauta for certificates, I adopted the method , of written es imii.a..ons because it . appeared tome lobe preeminently tho most satisfactory and tust of all conceivable methods. By it, I ft It persuaded I could be surer of giving each applicant full credit for every elemoDt of his proficiency, antl at the same time enable the applicant to do full justice to himself by ullowing him, to deliberately write his answers to the written questious instead of j answering oral tpiestious at the risk j ot f.nr nnitr the sheer excitement incident to such trial.

Due and Ihree-foutths of a month was the average length of the school t this last year. Iu the general out look we hud much to encourage. Alueu nas beeu done and more rt inaius to be done. Tbe grade of scholarship among the teachers must 1)6 advanced, new and improved methods of teaching must be inculcated and the work so auspiciously begun of supplying the districts with more commodious and better furnished school houses must be carried forward, until every dis trict is supplied with a house suited to the purposes of a school-house and equipped with ail necessary furniture and, most important of all, supplied with a teacher competent to sducate the children of the State for useful ncd houorable citizenship. The con stitution of the .Siate makes a system of public schools obligatory. And there should be a higher law iu every bosom that imperatively cries aloud for a 8 stem of public instruction. A proper regard for the material prosperity of tbe State, to say noth ing of the higher motive of the moral advancement of the masses, demands popular education.
