We do not think with the Kayettcvillc : j ObtTStr that such studies as telegraphy and snort-hand duccd into the Graded Schools of the State. Of course each aid practical we, but so would other subjects be tnat are uot taught there. We consider that tba object of the gradud school is not to «T give the scholars instruction in such subjects as they may pursue as tho pro fession or calling of their life, but to in duct them iu such a course of study as aiay develope the mind. Our contemporary thinks these stud ies '-would be more beneScia* to a good many of the scholars than Latin aud 'Greek." No duubt tbey would, and doebtless lecture on the act of cookery would be more useful to the girls than some subjects that are taught. But the function of the graded school as we have said is to discipline and dcvclopc the mine rather than to give technical iu 'atruetion which should be obtained else, where. \ We gave the derivation of the name Sauratiown in these columns some two years since, but as enquirers are fre quently made for the information by those who #d not read our article we have thought proper to repruducc it in this issue of the REPORTER. This word (Sauratown) is possibly, as In* been suggested to us by Mr. I'owel, (director of the Bureau of Ethnology, 'Smithsonian Institute Washington,) a corruption of the Algoukiun woid Sa jrano, signifying southern. According to the nsrrative of Cullen who doubtless borrowed from Nicholas Perot, the Sa i ttaos or Shawuees were driveu at an early ,4a, by the Five Nstiops from tho neighborhood of Lake Eno to the Car olina*. A portion of them were for a long time upon the head waters of the Santee (Catawba) and the great Peiee (Tadkiu) rivers the name of "Ontawagannha."

North Carolina which once wits promi. ci ncut among tho Southern States ill the manufacture of iron, has conspeiuously c failed to contribute to tho progressive Spirit which is present in some of her d sister States and resulted in the growth of the southern iron iudustry during the 1: past few years. Mr Jam oa M. Swaik, guueral man a- p gor of tho American Iron and Steel As- j d sociation, Philadelphia, has «eut this I " writed an article ou "the American Iron Industry from its beginning in 18 lit to iu which ho says ■ The former State, (North Carolina) although rich in iron ore and in timber suitable for charcoal, aud having also ' some undeveloped bituminous coal fields 1 has now fewer iron enterprises of any kind than at any time within the last | butidrcd years of its histoiy. Lack of | capital aud the remoteness of most of her iron ore deposits from railroad communication are the leading causes of this deeadcnco, and to' these may be 1 added the destruction of the bloomary 1 industry of .Vorth Cajolina through tho competition of rolled iron from other , States. There are now only two char coal furnaces in the State, (oue of which is tor sale,) and there is uot one coke furnace or rolling mill. Ouly a few bloouittries are left." STATE GLEANINGS.

I live in the midst of the malarial dis tricts of Maryland, neai t!»;- city of Washington, and aiu noosed t.i nil the dangerous influences i/t the impure aii and water of that region. Being naturally of a strong consti tution, I h.ul frequently boasted that | no chills and fever or other malarious | complaint would ever trouble me. This was my experience and the con dition in which I t'uund myself six months ago. I first noti .-J that I did not feel so sprightly and vigorous .is was iny wont to do. I felt tired anr! enervated. Soon 1 noticed a di.tinct and distressing back ache would make its appearance in the afternoon, in creasing in seventy if the exercise was more than usually violent. Then a stretchy feeling with [ rofitse gaping made its appearance. Then my head, always cle ir as a bell, would feel heavy and I began to have he.ul.u lies. The cold stage was marked with i bat tering clffheTecth, severe rigors pa-->ed over me, and no amount of clothing could keep me warm. The chill was succeeded in turn by the fever, in which I seemed to be burning up, the con gestion in my head produced a violent pain in the frontal portion and a heat ed sensation of the eyelids, with an in describable aching of the lower limbs. Nausea and vomiting occurred with severe retchings, and when the parox ysms passed otf 1 w.»s thoroughly pros trated by a weakness that was felt in every part of me. I drugged myself with quinine, ami obtained some relief. L.tt my respite was of brief duration. Iw as now so much reduced that I could hardly walk or stand upright. My disease soon culminated iti'a continued nialaii.il fe ver which kept me closely confined for about a week I became exceedingly depressed and melancholy, so much so that I lost interest in my work, and, indeed, scarcely cared what happened to me. During all this time, it must be un derstood that I did not neglect medical treatment. All the most |>owerful remedies were tried, vicli as liquid ar senate of potash, valerianic of iron, mercury, bromide of potunnMim, chlo ride of bismuth, cltinokUiM!, rhincliooi dia, quinine arid scver-tl other*. All this I did under tt* advic« of eminent physicians. It was while I was in this ;W|Aor\b!e condition that the claims nv.de for Kajkirr, thi nsu as a specific "Tor ratbr; i, were Uf»t brought to mv attention. I knew nothing >t its value (o justify my having any confidence in it, but a- everything else had failed 1 deemed it my iiuty to tiy it, so I began its use, and its p;ampt aud radical ef fects were of the nature of a revelation to me. Many people may think the statement scan el) i redible, but it is a fact that after only a few days' use of Kaikiiie ail the leading symptoms in my case wrre decidedly abated or ceased altogether; and in a few weeks from the time I toe k the fust dose I was cured. Tlflfc was about the first cf January, and since then I have experienced no recurrence of the malarial symptoms iu any form. A remedy of such ex ceptional virtue for the cute of malaria ought to be commended and univer sally made known. I have therefore urged it upon the attention of my friends, several of whom have used it with like good results in every case, and it i- with the greatest pleasure and sincerity that I commend Kaskine to sufferers from miliaria everywhere.
