Py a Prominent Ednc.ttor Exalted Position Slip Had Attained Glor ious I'romlso for the Future Had She Lived. To the Editor of the News and Observer. Ualkioii, N. C, Aug. 31, 18!)4. The announcement of t'ie untimely death, i . Chapel Hill of Miss Coriinie Ifa rison, will lie read with deep regret by the teachers of North Carolina. She was one of the foremost women of the Sim. . iu .d! that makes for good. Her scholar ; papers and brilliant addresses at the leaolicr : Assembly were among Us ber-t contributions to educational ad vancement, and her inspiring presence will never bo forgotten, by those who were privileged to Know her work. Miss Harrison was a native of New fJornp. the home ofcultivation and refine ment in the east, which was the custom of our fathers to call the Athens of North Carolina. She had taught with success in the best :.clioo"is oi' Boston, and for several years pi.st had I'ocn m charge ol the llemenway sclu ', at Norfolk. With her attractive Dei'S'inal t v and great talents, she took rank w'.ih tho first of her profession 'n this coo nrv. AppohV.ed upon n committee charged with a special mitlon, by the North Car olina teachers Assembly m June last, she wr.3 prompt in attendance at tho Natioii.il Educational Association iu July to discharge the lis!:, in behnll of h;r state, and of the higher culture of wo manhood. The writer had tiie privilege of hearing her address. "What makes what mars the teacher i" delivered beforo an audi ence of more than seven thousand, in the great auditorium at Asbu-y Park, em bracing tho leaders of social aud educa tional prog'ess in America. The masicry of her subject, the felicity of expression, anil g aco ot manner ol the ta r Southern er, wdio lo-:i not one trait of the true wo- mimliae,s el her Ci.rof man home captiva ted that immense body, and the audience hung upon the eloquent tongue until a rave wave ot enthusiastic applause greet, ed her modest farewell. The writer does not recall in his re- mouibrance a more perfect union depth of intellect and graceful precision ofcx- p 'ess.ou. At the ''Kound Table'' conference of a small g.onp of die thinkers and writers of tins country upon certain prooiems in tne psychology of education, and presided over by President lie Garmo, of Swarth- more Coi'ege, Miss liariisou asked a tew incisive questions, and it is not too much to sav, that upon being challenged her self, tho wiiter was amazed to see how she band'ed lotr.cate ques ons in mentul phil osophy, and won the astonished and ad. miring regard of ho men whose works have Ion;; been tiie classics of-the modern library ot teaching. It is not ilw partiality of private friend ship alou'j which prompts the declara tion, that in her dealt, her profession, and her be ,o veil native State have sustain ed a great loss. Had her lite been spared her lofty character and grent intellect would have won national fame, in a high er sphere of labor. By many a Southern girl in the ranks of the educational army her memory will bo cherished as one whose great attainments blended with the sweetest graces ot womanly reserve ana refinement. And her brethren revereutly lay the palm branch upon her new-made grave. ... , - J, B.
