REPORTS FROM CHATTANOOGA
The railroad between Chattanooga and
Knoxville has been repaired, and cars
are now running to and fro to the
great joy of the people along the line Of
the road. Not house or shanty was
passed on the trial trip that the residents
did not rush out and, with handkerchiefs
and flags, welcome the coming of the
federals.
Thirteen rebel deserters arrived at
Chattanooga on the 10th, including 1t.
Charles Allen, formeraly of Stonewall
Jackson's staff. Ten hundred and TWEEN
ty-seven deserters came into our lines

division has gone south to keep the men

resources Of men and money, be far less
formidable than those of the last two
years, when unimpared means were used
with boundless prodigality, and with re-
suits which are suggested by the mention
of the names of Shiloh, Perryvlle, MUIR
freesboro and the Chicahominy, Manas--
sas, Fredericksburg and Charlottesville.
Soldiers-Assured success awaits us
in our holy struggle for liberty and inde>
pendence, and for the preservation of all
that renders life desirable to honorable
men. When that success shall be reach

under Divine Providence, will ii be due.
The fruits of that success will not be
reaped by you alone; but your children
and your children's children in long gen.

derived from you that will preserve your
memory ever living in their hearts.
Citizen defenders of the homes, the
liberties and affairs Of the confederacy--
That the God whom we all humbly wor-

Keep your infallibiity as long as you
like, and make the most Of that nonsense
decree the immaculate conception of
the Mother of God, and his grandmoth.

WHAT THE WAR DOES Nor.-There
seems to be abundant evidence that the
interests of education, at the West, have
not suffered by the war. The assistant
superintendent of common schools in
Michigan, makes b = following state
ments and remarks, in document re-
Gently issued:
Two and a half Of the last three year,
have been in the midst of civil war,
which, considering the men and means
engaged, has never bad rival in mag
nitude. To this conflict, Michigan, with
a population Of $4,000, has sent over
fifty thousand of her sons. In those
three years, our population, between FIVE
and twenty years Of age, as shown by
the school census, has increased from 246,
6S4 10 272,737-an increase of over
twenty-six thousand and Of this about
twelve thousand was during the last and
most destructive Of the three years. In
the same three years, the number attend
ing the public schools has increased 22,-
GAP; and the number of teacher, has
increased from 1913 to 1915.
The amount paid to teachers has in
creased from $467 ,286 in 1860, to 51S,
062 in 1868. In other words, we have
paid $5O,775 more to teachers in the
common schools in the third year of the
war than in the year preceding it. In
1868 the district raised by voluntary
taxes, for teachers wages, $685. $3.50 in
Sl06,323 and now at the close of the
third year of the war, the district report
over 100000 on hand.
Doubtless a similar state of prosper
ity may be shown ir most or all The states
'ohere freedom instead Of slavery is the
watchword of the people. In the third
year of this gigantic raid upon liberty,
our schools have increased in length, in
numbers and in means. Does this look
like exhaustions p
Hon. j. L. Pickard, superintendent of
common schools in Wisconsin, ia his re-
cent annual report says: "Our schools
are better filled, better taught and better
supported than in previous years. In
order to supply demands from new dis
tricts for Webster's Unabridged Diction-
airy, it will be necessary to purchase
two hundred copies for distribution the
ensuing year,"
A few weeks subsequent TO the date
Of the above report, two hundred and
twenty copies of the work were ordered
for the purpose indicated, by authority of
the legislature, the state having prev:-
ously purchased nearly two thousand
copies for school district already in exis-
tence.
Verify the great West seems in little
danger of finding herself in 'the last
DITCH" or even in the first.
