Teachers in Convection.
The teachers of the county to the number
of over two hundred, met in Clinton last
week, to discuss matters pertaining to the
profession, and transact business relating to
the county Associatien. The advantage of
meeting in a good, central placer was self-evi-
dent, teachers from•the remote sections of
the county being able to attend without .'in-
convenience or difficulty. It was the first
time that many of them had been in the
""hob," and they carried away. very favorable
impressions of their visit, numbers express-
ing their admiration of the beautiful appear-
ance of the town at the present time, and
astonishment at the evident progress and
prosperity. The Associations of the North
and West Ridings held separate, meetings, in
