An Opening for n Schoolmaster

School teachers in want of situation will
see by the statement below that there is a
vacancy near Grcenyillc, Texas. Speaking
oi 1t as an opening for a teacher reminds
one of that fine opening for young man"
which offered when an unhappy fellow, fall
ing overheard, found shark under water
ready with distended jaws to receive him
into the tender embrace OF his NAV. II the
'schoomaster is abroad" IN Texas, it must
be because he cannot live at home. Nice
place is Texas.
TEACHER CTR TO PIrcEs.-GRrESyiILE( TEX.
as July Ca terrible affair took place
about eight miles cast Of this place, on the
Sd inst, between school teacher by the
name OF Moore, and man by the name of
Jesse Howard, and his four sons. Moore I'm
dertook to chastise Towards son that was
about twelve years old, for writing indecent
language IN young lady's copy. He had
struck the boy but three or four blows with
a switch. when the boy brothers came INTO
the school house with clubs, and one of them
struck the teacher with heavy club oil the
forehead. and felled him to the floor. The
other struch the teacher several times when
down, but the teacher recovered himself.
and got out his pocket knife and drove them
out OF the house. But at this juncture the
old man, two other sons, and two sons in
law arrived. and the old man rushed into
the house with large dirk pocket knife.
Moore begged Howard to spare his life,
telling him he Was then nearly dead. At
this time Moore had severe confusion on
the forehead, and was covered with blood.
But Howard. disregarding his entreaties.
rushed upon him and plunged his long knife
into him twice in his right side, both of
which wounds entered the cavity. Moore
broke from him. when Howard cut him on
the right shoulder making fearful cash
four inches long. and to the bone. With
al hts wounds, Moore broke from the house
and ran twenty rods. The boys outside
threw clubs ut him as he ran, one or two of
which hit him.
1t 10 generally supposed that the boy was
urged to provoke Moore to chastise him.
and NO doubt they expected it that morning
for they all arrived at the school house in a
few moments after Moore began TO whip
the boy, and the two Oldest brothers were
secreted close TO the house, for they got to
the door before Moore had struck the boy
six blows The Howards lived half mile
from the school house. Such are some Of
the facts Of the horrible affair, az appear
from the evidence on examination.
The old mans hail bond was fixed at
$4,000; the Oldest sons at $4,000. and the
other three sons ut $3.50 each. But they
have MOI yet. and probably cannot give bail.
Inc bubble feeling is against them, which
induces me to hope they will get their de-
serts. 80,

STRENGTH OF THE WEsT.-The Chi
cago Press, writing of the recent fail
ures, says:
A little while ago, eastern journalists
combined in crying down our noble West.
From every Atlantic State came the re-
iterated prediction of impending collapse
in Western interests. "The West"
said these journals, is producing no
surplus. Her capital and her industrial
classes have all gone into wild specula-
tion in worthless lands. A general de-
probation must come, and the bankrupt
cy of the whole West become inevitable"
And SO it went on until thousands of peo-
pie were deferred from coming to the
West, and from investing their means in
fertile lands. The capital was retained
in the Eastern States. 1t was invested in
Railroad stocks and other securities
and where is it now? Would not the
former holders of it be willing to pay
heavy bonus for the chance of investing
it in Western lands? And what must
be the reflection of those journalists who
have, by slandering the west, contributed
10 this state of things? The West,
standing strong in youthful vigor, and
resting upon broad foundation of ener-
gy and productive industry, while the
East, little while ago so elated and
pulled up with her own importance, and
SO paronisingly commissioning the
doomed West, is lettering beneath the
full force of the financial storm. We
are sorry for our friends there, but the
lesson will not wholly be lost upon them.
Meanwhile we congratulate our friends at
home upon the measure of prosperity
and security which they enjoy, and upon
the fact that those who but little while
ago predicted our downfall, now look to
us as their only refuge and protection
against suffering that calamity them
selves.

Lord Napier has accepted an invita-
ion to be present at the United States
Agricultural Society's Fair at Louisville,
Kentucky, September LIST, which prom
Uses TO be on even more magnificent
scale than the one at Philadelphia last
year. Mr.. Leonard Wray expects to be
there with the new sugar plants, sorghum
and imphee, to make sugar and syrup
each day of the fair. The awards of the
Syracuse reaper trial will be announced,
and the great national trial Of plows, cul
tivators, threshing machines, steam plows
and all other agricultural implements,
will be made. The citizens of Louisville
have guaranteed $685. to cover all ex-
penses, and our Kentucky exchanges an
ticipate grand time. The occasion is
an important one, and will call together
an immense crowd, beyond doubt.
