TO PUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHER'S
AND COMMITTEEMEN OF
CARTERET COUNTY.
I desire to call the attention of all pub
lic scliool teachers of the county to sec
tion 25.GG of ihe school law, which pro
vides jshat the County Superintendent
siall examine apolicafuts for teachers cer
i1'ttoar it.tlie uoart house on ho second
Tipirsfiay's of Ft-i). tiary, April, July, Sep
tembeij, October and Decemb.-r. This
section: will be observe i closely. All who
desire teachers certificates niust app ar at
the county eeat on one of the regular days
for examination. Let no one imngino
that his old certificate will be. endorsed.
Our standard must bt raised. Theie is
no use ;in paying out the public school
money to inefficient teachers.
The Examinations given are very sim
ple and easy, calling out merely the fun
damental principles and salient points in
tlia subjects examined upon. Surely any
one who should fail to answer seventy
per cent of the questions asked them on
examination should give up all idea oi
teaching other men's children until they
have quJCified themselves for the very im
portant avocation. No private examina
tion will be given.
Let ho committee employ a teacher un
til that teacher produces a certificate from
the County Superintendent dated within
a year, j And any one engaging to teach
without a certificate is liable to forfeit his
pny forlthe same. Committeemen of each
district will notice (section 2579) that it
is tlieir duty to select one of thjir number
to take the ceifus of their district on or
beure;the first day of November.
Let the clerk of each committee nolify
me aud 1 will send blanks, etc. If any
committeeman is without a copy of the
school law as amended by the laws of 1S85
let him apply for a copy at once. Com
mittees should see that proper houses are
provided. In some places I have, visited,
new houses are needed in others old ones
need repairing up properly for school
rooties. Wo can never have proper schools
in shabby ill arranged houses.
For any information or advice in refer
ence to the public schools, J a ni;t ees
are carcgtly requested to apply to,

In behalf of the citizen"? of the town
Dr. II. D. Harper made an impromptn
welcoming address ofCeiing the most
hearty welcome and extendingthe .hospi
tality of Kinston to each and every mem
ber! The following is a condensed report
of same :
After some introductory remarks, he
said : When the dark war cloud that had
been generating for years, and gaining
velocity each year, suddenly burst upon us
in 18G1 and delurred the land with the cry
of war, as Alt. Vesuvius has deluged the
plains with lava, there were none who
were more prompt to respond to the
trumpet's call than the Macon Mounted
Guards, Co. E. 3rd N. C. Cavalry. There
were none in whose bosoms that patriotic
principle "jive me liberty or give me
death" found a more responsive echo. The
rattle of their sabres and the crackimr of
of .their riurs were heard from thebatt'es
of Fort Macon and NewBerne in '61 until
the close of the great struggle in '65.
.Alany individuals .tmd communities re
member -in depths of crrauitude and admi
ration your daring dashes into the ene
mies' midst and have had their cheeks
erimsoned with dclisrht at the victories
won, but nore, gentlemen, should prize
you more highly than Kinstpii and vi
cinity. These re-unions are not ii? any sense
an' evidence of disloyalty, but arc held
mainly for their social features .&nd to
correct diCi,cp.vmoies in the roster. Men
who hav$ faced death in gallant charges
side by side enjoy looking into a com
rade's eyes in time of peace.
B,it men ask, If we love the Union as
we pretend to do, why cherish and per
petuate the recollections of ' The Lost
cause.?"
We ansej by illustration. A young
m:ln was passionately in love with a
young lady; tl:e f-jgagement was broken,
life loved aud married another; years
afterwards he met his flrsrt-lover and said
to her. T am . now happily married, am
perfectly satisfied and want no divorce,
but. hang me if I don't love you a little
JVB.
Several other subjects were discussed,
such as, "Was the South justifiable in
taking up aims and sever-ng the Union?''
He closed with a touching eulogy on
brave men, who have jeopardized their
lives for home and "liberty and loved oi es
tliey will do so again if occasion de
mands a heart full uf welcome to ycu
all."
The company then proceeded to busi
ness one of the objects of which was
the correcting of-any irregultuities of
Roster.
On motion thc following committee was
appointed to make correction: S. II.
Loftin, C. W. Yates, J,. M. White and
John A. Pollock.
On motion tho following committee
