Cor. of The Morgan ton Herald. 7 . :0:i Fiiday evening last the young ladies of the Normal train ing Uasa in the Articulation De partmeut, invited the household to be present at the regular monthly review of the reading circle, to listen to original compo sitions on subjects suggested by the study of the preceding four weeks. " Preyc.'s " TheSenses and the Will" had tieen much under consideration and growing out of the interest thus awaketed regard ing sight, a well written paper on the anatomy of the eye, and the laws of light, was given by one of the students. .Quick's " Essays on Educational Reformers," having drawn attention to the period of the Renaissance, one of the young women wrote of Greek and Ro man literature, "while the same study lead the third writer to speak of-the influence of the class ics on English literature. . Friends being the critics, each essay-won unstinted praise and the compliment of unflagging at tention throughout the reading. As the order of exercises included roll; call to be responded to by anotations having an educational bearing," the guests graciously consented to take part in this number of the programme, and out of this arose the only- discor dant note of the evening, i One visitor insisted that she was giving a selection having an educational- mottf when she recited, ".Mary had a little lamb and the sage was. sure that "Twinkle, .twinkle, little star," had scientific value. Barr ing slight differences of opinion at this point the hour was passed both pleasantly and profitably. Several gentlemen .have recent ly visited the school and pupils and teachers have been encouraged by - the evident interest taken in the work being done here. A mild case of nettle-rash aroused fears of measles and scarlet-fever for an hour one day and rnade every one think anxiously of what might happen should seri ous illness break out among the childre'n while the infirmary re mains in itspresent unfinished condition. , We have been most fortunate in having had, practical ly, no sickness this session. The watchful care of the school phy sician has insured the "ounce of prevention and the medical "stitch in time so completely that we are in danger of forgetting the soe throats, the coughs and the head aches which may have been warn ings of graver ills impending in case these symptoms were ignored. But not even ourphysician can ward off certain affections, and one of the young men, clearly suf fering an attack oT" maladie du paysx was heard to pensively remark, "Any one dying here wculd re semble Moses," and when pressed for an explanation, he said, "No one off the mountain would know of the death, and it wouldn't be be possible to-go down for the burial.7' However, the youth is mistaken.: Proof has recently been given that those who will to go out can go, and if the going out be from a carriage the exit can be made with neatness and dispatch under certain conditions.

Editor of Kicker's Column : In The Herald of last week the mind of our good friend A. seems to be very much distressed owing to" the bad condition of the roads, also at seeing her friend, the proud owner of a magnificent vehicle which he had just received. She found it impossible to keep back her wrath and let fly the poisoned arrow of envy at the head of her friend. - - " - , The vehicle in question was pressed into service afew even ing's since by this good woman and two of her friends who were invited to a 5 o'clock tea. A son of Ham was also ah occupant of the 'vehicle, in : the capacity of driver and footman. The" four being rather a heavy load and the soil which was added to each and every turn of the wheels was too much for the "steed and he keeled over almost carrying the chariot with him. The ladies were indeed very much alarmed, and regardless of the condition of Burke county soil, of which our good friend A. has recently been complaining, it took them no time to get out of tne venicie into mud which came. up far over their shoe tops. Their sorry plight can be better imag ined than described. They were Irather late for the five o'clock tea and the condition of their shoes were not the best for refined soci ety. They returned home sadder if not wiser, and we hope will not be so bold as to undertake to at tend another invitation to tea, un til the reads become navigable. In their great trouble they have the sympathy of all. X. To Kicker's Column: - Mr. Editor: Kindly allow me just a few lines to say that the macadem on West Union is being worn out in the middle. The con stant travel on one part of the bed of 'macadem is- showing plainly. This can be obviated easily and a stitch now will save several later on. some logs or poles should be laid 00 the present used part of the road, this compelling vehicles to move to one side or the other. and wear the macadem down uni formly all over. It is practically as good as new on the sides and the teams should be made to use it. I don't live on West Union and care nothing about this "Blood Avenue" business but as a simple matter of common sense, and a matter of economy to the town, I think it should be looked after. The time and expense to put the logs on the macadem would be merely nominal, and the benefit derived would be considerable. Thanking you, Mr." Editor, for your kind indulgence, I am Yours truly, - "' Reformer. .Senator Ransom. Strongly Endorsed - as Minister to Mexico. A NORTH CAROLINA BOY PROMOTED.

The pupils have organised a de bating society, in which the girls share the honors equally with the other wing of tbe house. A circle of King's Daughters has just been formed, and a Sunday night re ligious meeting for both the young men. and the young women has been instituted. What with these two organizations and the regular Sunday afternoon chapel service and Sunday School, and the teach ers Bible class Sunday evening, the dwellers upon the hill-top may hope; to escape lapsing into abso lute heathenism during the shut-in months. ' Whatever lack of patriotism may be charged to school children generally of the present day, there is no question as to their senti ments regarding the observance of Washington's birthday. The days before the:22d of February are counted off as soon as Christmas is well passed and for a fortnight at ieast the dullest child has known that a play-day was coming. The conditions being so unfavorable for an out-of doors holiday, the elders could wish'the day a move able feast, but the juniors unani mously demand, "No postpone ment on account of the weather." . A. - - School for D. and D.," Feb. 20,1895. . Mr. Editor : I wish to expatiate just a little on a very vital matter. Mr. Sam. Huffman, our representa tive in the present General As sembly, said he would introduce a bill, such as the people would pre pare and send to him with a petition, allowing a vote on wet and dry, .also a vote on water works bonds. Now the bill has been sent to Mr, Huffman, accom panied by a big petition, and, as yet, he has taken no visible action in the matter. He did introduce a bill allowing the Mayor of Mor ganton to be elected by the people, but that is a small matter and of no import at all. We want the bill introduced and enacted as law. I think Mr. Huffman has had ample time to do this in, and now, why this whichness? He should stir himself. I suppose Mr. Huffman would say, if interrogated about this matter, that "Rome was not4uilt in a day," &c, and for us not to be in a hurry, but I think we should be in a hurry. This is a vital matter and should be acted on. The 'time when this Legislature will consider semi-private acts is not as long as it has been and the session draws to a close. I hope Mr. H. will act on this at once, and I think the majority is with me. Respectfully yours, Voter and Taxpayer.

When the news of the death of Minister Gray was received at the Capitol, Senator Hansom was im mediately suggested for the place. The movement was inaugurated by Seuator Morgan. Twenty five Senators immediately telegraphed tbe President ol tbetr choice in the matter. To day every Senator on the Democratic side of tbe Cham ber and a number of Republicans will present Seuator Ransom's name to the Presideut for this posi tion, lie is admirably equipped for the place.

Wilde, or the Light-house Board, received a dispatch yester day, stating that the .light-hon.se atSmitVs Point, VaM- 100 miles BoutbiOf Washington, at tho en trance of the Potomac river into the Chesapeake Bay, had been carried away by the driftiug Ice. The. keeper eseaped. This Iight hoase was badly damaged last winter by the utorms. Most of the light-bouses at the mouth of the Potomac river audjn the bay are iron screw stations, and fears are entertained that others will be damaged or" carried away. In several instances the keepers have abaudoned tbe light houses in tlm kertion, fearing for their lives. Capt. Wilde, of the Light house Board, is also informed that the keeper at tbe Plantation Toint light, near Cape Charles, Va., has auauuonect his post as his position way made perilous because of floatingice which- threatened to carry away the struct nre. " Congress has appropriated $10. 000 for hiring tug boats to break tbe ice in the Potomac. . This will relieve the pressure on the pier of the Long Bridge and may save that structure. .Thursday, Mr. Bower was de layed iu getting to the House in time to call up the Winston Pub lic Building bill before it was re ferred to the Committee. It is be lieved. here that Mr. Bankhead, the Chairman, or the Public Build ing Committee is opposed to the bill, but it is known that the Speaker is in lavnr of it. Senator Ransom got his bill appropriating $150,000 for the Winston Public Building through the Senate, knowing it would be cut down by tbe llou.se. Mr. Bower is very "bine" over bis misfortune of yes terday but hopes to get the bill be fore the House again this session.
