4 N. WALLISTER. JAMES A. BEAVER.
MPALLISTER & BEAVER,
ATTORNEYS AT LAW,
In referring to my **Notes” of last year’s
visitations, I find that many schools were
partially. and a few, sadly defective ; espe-
cially such as were kept by inexperienced
hands, A want of system—of approved
modes of teaching —of order, proper classifi-
cation—studious habits, and high moral
tone, seem to pervade, here and there, in a
greater or less degree, throughout the coun-
ty.
Now, let me ask : Who are responsible
for these defects? Most certainly, the
Teachers are. for “what the Teacher is, so
shall the School be,” and since he is the
cultivator of immortal minds, it is clearly
evinced ‘that as he sows so shall he also
reap.” How long, then, shall the apathy
and inefficiency of some Teachers be toler-
ated ? How long shall the industrious citi-
zens of this County continue to pay enor-
mous taxes for the support of schools, from
which, in some localities, they derive no ade-
quate benefits ? And, how long shall the
noble system itself be made to suffer at the
hands of those who are its principal opera-
tives ? Let mie assure you that these delins
quencies can not be borne with any louger.

ed.” Teachers must qualify themselves to
do their whole duty. They wust work—

Kentucky's Quota oF Troors.—Ken-
tucky’s quota of the halt milliou of men call-
ed for by Congress is tweuty five thousand.
Of these about eight thousand are in the
field and ten thousand more are'in the cawps
of instruction. On the 10th of next month,
according to Gen. Sherman’s order, the con-
solication of the twenty odd regiments rais-
ing in the State will begin, and it is hoped
by the end of the week ensuing. that Ken
tucky will have at least twelve of those regi-
ments in course of formation complete and |
full. These will amount, with the eight full
regiments, to be about twenty thousand
men—five thousand less than the quota. It
is hoped that these will be also raised and 1

enabled to advance beyond Greene river,
Kentucky will furnish her full number,
and more too. It will not do, I find. to judge

however, by the grain for which England and
‘Frouce have so wuch need, owing to the
failure of their crops.
Since the first of January, 1861, 2.276,290
barrels of flour have left New York for for-
‘eign countries, while during the ssme tine
last year bat 1,452,851 barrels were export-
.ed.. The immense number of 20.270,001
‘bushels of wheat have been bought from us
‘this year, against 9,008,832 in the same
time in 1860. Foreign nations have also
purchased the following artiles in the time
mentioned ; of rye about 600 000 bushels,
‘against 6,000; of butter 15,255,300 pounds
against 7,708,500 ; of tobacco 94,000 pack-
ages, against 75 000.
These figures suggest one great fact, that
.cotton is not the controlling article of export
from this country, aie, by the treachery of
those who have conspired to destroy all other
interests that cotton might rule, the great
fact is demonstrated that the trade of this
.country abroad is not the least affected by a
withdrawal of cotton from the market.—
‘Corn and wheat are fast taking the places of
‘cotton, and the end of this rebellion will
prove that to the middle and the great wés-

they have not already done so, retire behind
their entrenchments at Manassas Junc tion,
where they have tbe railway to aid in bring-

and strong entrenshinents to defend them-
