Single Copies Six Cents available and at the same time supply all, providing directors proportionately perform • their duty. • The next point to be ‘Considered is the best means by which the object proposed can be effected. here is where the skill of the Su periatendeneis most heavily:taxed, In devil,- ing,.means by which he can determine the nature and extent of the applicant's qualift- I cations, and compare the examination of the timid and embarrassed with that of him who has the happy faculty. of telling all he knows ..and often more. To reach this we have two methods—the oral. and written— each - of which haa its advantages and diaadvantages. - Circumstances must: in a large measure, gov ern the use of either. . : Li:some' districts we have not the black.board surface; , in others the classes are large and the time limited.-- Since the law requires that stoplicants must be examined in the . presenoe of directors, it is obvious that an entirely written_ exami nation would present no attractions to direct . ors and others who are present to estimate the proficiency of those whom they wish to employ ; and nothing wculd be more. dull for theiri, than to watch - the applicants as they proceed with their written work, the silence only being broken by 'the scratching of pentfon the paper, or the clicking of pen cils on the elate. - A. written examination, however, - would be more satisfactory,. be cause all applicants there'share the same ad vantages, and consequently the result would bell fairer exhibition of their literary attain men Li; but - many of , them require so much time to write out their answers, that two or three days would be required for an ordinary class. - Directors would tree- interest—they would not examine the papers, and if they_ did, many of them would understand but lit tle of the wor k , , which, if orally expressed, would enable them and the examiner to fcirm a better estimate of the applicant's tact for Imparting his knowledge to others. The written examination also enables us to test his penmanship, correctness of spelling, punc tuation, use of capitals, cte., while the oral examination shows his ability to. Illustrate and explain—his manner of expression, and his skill and readiness in unraveling abstruse points. Its disadvantages consist mainly in the embarrassing posidon timid . applicants are placed; but the kindness and'affability of the Superintendent will, in a measure, remove this. In order, therefore, to economize time,_ and ase the advantages of each, I combine the two methods and select the questions and problems, so that every applicant passes over the same ground with different work. The failure then of one to perform all his work, will not warrant the assertion that he could have done that of his neighbor. Many of those preparing themselves for teachers, have an erroneous opinion of the object of these examinations; They suppose the mission of the Superintendent is to puz zle them with some unheard of place in -ge ography, some, abstruse problem In arithme tic, or some unsettled point in- gramthar.— This is wrong. Oar object is merely to get your general knowledge of the branchea -to be taught, by presenting something in a top ical way, which requires analysis and thought ; and the greater the degree of con ciseness and clearness, the more satisfactory the result: 'lt is not so much now you do it as WHY you do so and so, that tests your knowledge of the subject and your ability to teach it. The law does not provide for private exam inations, but plainly re&ds, thit all applicants must be examined 'in - the presence of the Board of Directors, etc." I will, therefore, examine none privately during the public ex aminations, and only afterward upon a writ ten request from the School Board, slgrled by the Secretary, as required by the decision of the State Supt., found in the school law, page 139, decision 301.. Co. Sum MpuraessnottO, May 29th, 1867. To AR. J. A. M. PASSMORE,. SECRETARY OF COMMITTEi, OF PENNSYLVANIA BRANCH OF A3IF.RICAIt FREEDMEN'S IINION•COMMISSION. SIR: —As the time has come when it is ne cessary for me again to write you of the con dition of oar school, I will -begin by saying that we have had no reason - to change our minds with regard to the ability of the color ed children to learn. The number attending school at present is more than one hundred, and the daily average attendance is sixty-eight. The progress of those who attend regularly Is quite satisfac tory, but several of the larger scholars can only come a day now and then, when the weather is such that they cannot work in the fields ; so that cotton and corn Interfere very . materially with our work in the school-room. I have one pupil twentpthree years 014, whose home Is in Kentucky. - She came to Murfreesboro last winter to visit her sister, intending-to remain three _weeks;" but she commenced going to school,' and being very anxious to learn, has:prolonged her stay till the present. One day she asked if the word taught ought -not to be used instead of teached. After tell ing her that leached should not be used at all, and upon inquiring why she wished to know, she replied, " When . 1 go home my' friends will ask me where and how I learned so _much, and I thought it would be better to say you taught me than teached me." At another time while explaining, a word_ in the reading lesson, one boy said, "We never knew anything about such words when we were slaves." Well, Ned, I replied, now that you are free, you ought to feel thankful thatyou have - the opportunity of going to school, and should improve your time, and learn all you possibly can. 0 ! said he, " I think I am getting on very well,- or I would not be reading in Second Reader." Sometimes he says he wants - to go home with us, and asks if we ever have any warm weather there. ' A few weeks ago the colored schools here and some from Nashville, held . a celebration in a grove near the. Cemetery. Our school looked forward with fond anticipations to the day, and one little girl said to me as I passed by her seat, "mother says' what ribbon must I wear to morrow:" The day was pleasant, and more than three thousand persons were present, and, .they seemed to feel that they were having a grand'time. Befere 5 o'clock, nearly all had left the grounds, without a dis turbance of any kind having °pawed during the entire day. The Saturday previous, we visited Stone River • battle ground and Cemetery. The Cemetery presents a neat appearance. Flve thousand Union soldiera are interred within its limita. All the graveaare nicely 'Sodded and made the same size, so that the head boards are in a straight line from one street• to another: • A large number of them .are marked "unknown." • - - A great many of the trees on , the battle ground were pierced' with balls, and' some had their tops cut off. Thera were no balls however, to be found in them when we-were there, as persons who had visited the spot before i ns, had see:tired them: I forgot to mention that the, Cemetery is three Mlles from Murfreesboro.:..:: . . The pikes leading from the city are In a good condition, 'but-as there are very few treat, walking. albng them Is by no means pletutant in warm weather, and so we, have been compelled to discontinue our long walks on Saturday. - - - Several weeks ago, as we were walking out on the Salem pike, we saw some cabins a short distance from the road, and concluded we would go to them and inquire if any- of our scholars lived there. A: colored woman was sweeping before the door of one of these, and upon our' remarking to- her' that we thought she had a very nice garden, she re plie Of yes, we want to be a • little like "folks." - • A lady who luta resided in the South, for fifteen years, said a few days ago, that the improvement of the colored people, especial ly in-morals, was far greater than She had evsdhopedlor. -•- ' The schools will close In two weeks, and we are 'Row anxiously awaiting the arrival of our transportation papers.. Some of the teach ers have already learned that they are to go by way of Chattanooga and Washington, and we are hoping thut we can go the same route, as we wish very much to . : visit Lookout Mountain. .

B. - Carpenter is writing a series of papers for the New York Independent, em bodying inctdents and anecdotes of Mr. Lid- ” coin. width have heretofere, never been made public. The tenth paper narrates the following facta which we are sore, will be read with great Interest:... .. .Lying before me upon my study-table is a plain brown leather-bound book, - bearing the marks both of age and use. The title-page, in old-fashioned letter. contain Mit words,. "ME WORKS OF LORD BYRON. Philadelphia: Griggs it Elliott.. -1833."• - Upon the fly4earis written in ink, • • "A. LINCOLN. Presented by his friend, N. W. Edwards." This is In Mr. Lincoln's hand-writtog. Up on the page facing-this are two columns of figures in pencil, which look like election re turns, with their footing carefully computed ' —also. in Mr. Lincoln's band. Under-neath there is an inscription by the Hon. Wm. H. Herdon; of Springfield, 111, who requests, in characteristic phrase, that "this book" may be kept In the possession of the friend to whom he dedicates it, "for the roamEa of books." A letter • accompanied - the " gift, in which • Mr. Herndon states that "this book was given to Mr. Lincoln by his brother-in law, N. W. Edwards, in 1839 or 40 ;" that "Mr. Lincoln. read it - year in and year out, till Shakespeare - and Euclid swallowed up all other books." . Several Other old volumes accompanied its presentation by Me. Lincoln to Mr. Herndon —"Goldsmith, Locke, Gibbon," in strange company with "Patent Office Reports," Con-. gressional Globes," etc., etc._ A new phase in Mr. Lincoln's character has lately been opened ,in the revelation of his early attachment to a young lady of New Salem, whose death soon after their engage ment threw him into' profound melancholy, changing the whole course of his after life. The "Byron" before me came into his hands • within a few years.of this event. It bears no marks of pen or pencil other than those de-- scribed ; but upon turning Its pages the curi ous observer is arrested by one folded leaf— one only, - in all the book. 'The page is dis colored, and the fold of the leaf seems as old as the book itself—lt is , firmly, solidly-pressed together like a :withered flower. The eye runs down the page, and is stopped by Two , valise, entitled • "WRITTEN AT ATHENS, JANUARY, 16th, 1810., "The spell is broke, the charm is flown, Thus is it with life's fitful fever ; We madly smile when we should groan, Delirium is our best deceiver. - "Each lucid interval of thought Recalls the woes of Nature's charter, And be that acts as wise men ought But lives, as saints have died,- a martyr." - _Were these lines to "Abraham Lincoln, in 1839, simply co-incident with his thought at this period of his life, or were they a PROPH ECY? In May or Jane, 1862, a delegation of what _ are known in Pennsylvania as "Progressive Friends" visited Mr. Lincoln, among many others, to urge upon him decisive action upon_ the slavery question. The deleghtion - was Composed of both men and woman. In an address delivered upon this occasion Mr. Lin coln was likened to Deborah, the deliverer of Israel; and a quotation was made. from his Springfield speech in his campaign with Doug lass, with the intimation that he was expect ed to stand- by his anti-slavery principles. - The conclusion of -the address weft followed by a moment'ssilence. It was evident Mr. Lideoln was somewhat annoyed. Various del egations and many imi ivid nel s had visited him, urging action in the same direction. He re sponded in effect that be thought he appreci ated-to some extent both the position and the . difficulties which 'surrounded him He re ferred to his Springfield speech, correcting what he thought an unwarrantable inference from it and concluded in nearly these words "It may be, as you have said, that, like 'De borah,' I have been selected by the Almighty for thisgreat work of Ethancipation. In the , event of this being so. it seems to me"l can safely be LEFT in the Lord's hands." - The-day after the issue of the Emancipa tion Proclamation Senator Wade-called upon the President to - congratulate him. He was - met, by Mr. Lincoln, asking if he re- _ membered the fable illustration of "the at tempt to wash the hlackamoor wirrns," and the result—the death of the ni.Acit. "And," continued Mr. Lincoln, fear in this case I,that between the North and the South the chances are that the poor NEORO will get SCRUBBED to DEATH " At the time of the first raid of Lee's army into Maryland and Pennsylvania, much alarm was felt in Philadelphia, lees that city might , felt into their hands. A gentleman on his way to Washington, witnessing the excite ment in Philadelphia, expected to find Wash- . ington also in a ferment. -On the contrary, the Capital was m quiet as though "raids" were unknown, Reporting the alarm felt in Philadelphia to Mr Lincoln, the gentleman . expressed his surprise at the absence of ex . - - citement in Washington. "When I was studying law," Mr. Lincoln replied, half abstracedly, "I boarded with a Mr.—; One night I went to bed as usual, and was awakened in the middle of the night by my landlord who stood by the side of my - bed, with, nothing on but his shirt, trembling with fright. 'Lincoln,' said he, 'getup ! The world is coming to an end!' I jumped out of bed, and ran to a window. And sure enough, it seemed as though the man was right; all the stars in heaven appeared to bo -falling. I looked on for some time expecting :os. crash ; but none came. Finally, I thought" • 1. would look for my familiar constellations— the 'Hen and Chickens,' the 'Sow and Pigiv.' and 'Ellen Carter.' They were in their old places, shining - as - serenely as though shoot- ` ing stars bad never been heard of. I watch- . ed themawhilei and seeing them firm and steady as, ever, I made np my, mind that it was . notgoing to be much of a !MOWER after all; sci I went to bed again. And I think - this raid will turnout moth the same way." • The enlistment of negroes in the Eastern Department of the Army commenced under _ Gen., Schenck's command, in Maryland, and contemplated - at first the enlistment only of . _ the - free blacks. Much trouble was occa sioned, however, from-the fact that it was of-- - ten impossible to tell` - her the "recruits" presenting themselves 'Were rake; or not ; masters frequently coming :forward and claiming parties whci had enlisted. Gen. Schenck, at length,. went to. Washington to. ascertain what policy the Administration pro- , 'posed to pursue in the matter. He stated his ' case to the Piesident, explaining his diffient , ties, and asked for instructions. Mr. Lincoln replied-that he had.no special instructions to give; the condition of things at that juncture was such that it seemd best to have no deff nite policy on the subject. Commanders of - the departments must act according to their , best judgment. "Yon see, Schenck;" con- . tinned Mr. Lincoln, "we are like.ati old ee -1 quail:dance of mine who settled on a piece of ' 'GALLED' prairie. It was a terribly rough place to clear upi but after 'a while he got-a few things growing—here and there a patch of corn, a few hills of beans, and so on. One day a stranger stopped to look at this . place; and wanted to know, how he managed to cid tivate-so rough a spot. 'Well;' was the re- _ ply, 'some 01' it's pretty tough. The timelier stumps we can generally sour out or Bunn out; but now and then - there is an old settler that - bothers me, and there is no other way but to - Prow AROUND Now, Schenck," Mr; Lin coin concluded, "at ouch a-time as this. troublesome cases are constantly coming up, and the only way to get along at all is to eLow AROUND them." Mr. Lincoln's Way of looking at questions of public policy,. as contrasted - .with • that phase of sti4esmanship which regards "ex- . pecliency" chiefly,-if not only, is well illus trated by a conversation which occurred with a distinguished member of Congress, about the time of.the attempt on the part of the Se- . nate to have Mr. Seward. removed tram the Cabinet, in 1862 or 1863, "C--,"said Mn Lincoln, on day, "some of your associates at -the Capitol are afraid. Seward baa too much influence with me; are - - they'not?" "To be frank, - Mr. President," was there_ Ply, "there is a decided feeling that way since Mr. Seward's conservative tendencies have developed." - . "Nose. C " sit sit down here, and I will , just tell you how that is,',' resumed Mr. Lin- ' colm "Don't you know that, for a goal many reasons, Seward - es Secretary of State IS Invaluable to me ? If I wish to know anything on any subject—questions of law.; precedents ; history.; what has been done, When, andby Whom; what other govern ments have sanctioned or maintained ;in _ • short; if I am at a loss upon any subject what ever—Mr. Seward is the man of all others to - -set me rig.ht.
