A DARK PLACE.


According 10 the Teachers Association Of
Tennessee, which has just issued an address on
the necessity of improving the common school
system, there are eighty three Thousand adults
in that state who can neither read nor write, and
three hundred thousand children for whose ed
ucatiop there are no adequate facilities. This
is a lamentable exhibit, to which no free state
can furnish parallel.
The present white population of Tennessee is
about $4,000; so that one person in ten is alb
the thousands of blacks, just released from slave
ry, whom the masters kept in ignorance, the ag-
gregate shows that broad missionary field is
open in this single state Of the South. We do
not Wonder that the teachers of the state, dis
cussing educational topics with enlightened
zeal, but naturally despairing success with the
limited meaus afforded them earnestly urge the
people to consent to a taxation of million dol
lars year to place the schools upon proper
footing. Nor is it matter of surprise TO know
that considerable proportion of the eighty
three thousand grown persons in Tennessee who
can neither read nor write, found congenial en-
ployment in the rebel armies; it was of such
men, prejudiced and easily fed, that the Davis
es and Yanceys made tools. .,..r,f.e.. 10
One of the earliest duties TO engage the atten-
tion of the southern legislatures, under the new
order of affairs, sheuld be the elevation of the
masses of the people from the debasement which
comes of ignorance; and the surest method Of
affecting this reform is to place the common
school in every hamlet, So that education may
become as free in every southern state as in the
North.-N Y Post aH tai

GEN. GRANT,s RKAL NAME.

The Milwaukee News says prominent and
reliable citizen Of Wisconsin was told by Gen.
Sherman, when on his recent visit to Milwaukee,
that General Grants real name is Hiram s.
Grant aud not Ulysses S. Grant, as he is usu-
ally designated. General Sherman stated that
the name by which General Grant goes was sc-
quired by the blunder Of the member Of Con-
gress who recommended General Grant for the
Military Academy, when be handed in the name
of young Grant to the Secretary of War. After
his appointment TO West Point, the embryo
Lieutenant General endeavored to secure cor
rection of the error but the officer of the Acad-
emy declined to do SO for the want of authority,
and referred the matter to the War Department,
where for some reason it was neglected The
modest student of Military tactics finally flank
ed the difficulty by assuming the name which
accident and the official record assigned him.
His mother, however, never forgot to call him
Hiram and Ulysses never fails to respond to
the call. Whatever of truth there may be in
this statement we cannot say. IL. ...4 t....f

The election in this State takes place next
Tuesday. II was late hour before the people
got to work. but they are making up lost time,
and the parties on both sides are fully awake.
The Democrats find that waiting TIL the last
hour for holding their convention dess not help
them. The people distrust those peu who
stood IN the Chicago platform who pronounced
the war failure and opposed the Government
in its efforts TO save the Union at ali hazards
The people do not forget these things; they were
true to the interests of the.country in days of
woe aud of war, and so are they to day. The
difference between hypocrisy and honesty they
can discover at glance, and they know it was
not safe to trust the leaders of the CoPPerhead
party with the control Of the Government in
1864, and that it will not do to give them the
power in 1865. The dodge of indorsing the
President did not save the party in Ohio, and
as it looks now it. will not in New York. We
think the Union majority will be larger than in
1864, for at that time many votes were fraudu-
lently cast and counted. The Union party
victorious in New York and New Jersey aud all
the Northern States, and what is there left for
the Copperheads. Nothing but their record.

A CASE TO BE DECIDED.

A short time ago discharged black
soldier returned home to Milford, Delaware,
with ''knapsack strapped upon his back, :"
and carrying gun. He was Immediately
taken up before magistrate, relieved Of
his gun, fined, &c., for violating a law
which provides that mo negro shall be al
lowed to own or have possession of a gun"
His case was brought to the notice of the
military commandant, and by him referred
to the commander of the department.
His decision will be one of interest as it
will decide all similar cases involving the
question whether black soldier who in
common with the white soldier, as allowed
to retain his gun by an order of the War
Department, on onreturning home, returned
to the ''status of negro" again, or is pro-
tected by the General Government in the
possession Of the gun the United States
sold to him.

Mr.. John Rodenbaugh, farmer and auct-
ioneer, well known in Portage county, was
murdered on Tuesday evening near Ravenna
His body was found in the road about three
fourths ola mile from his residence, his horse
and wagon standing near. He had evidently
been struck down with a green white oak club
found near the corpse. He was returning from
Kent. where ne had been on business, and Joel
Beery and Jacob Cooper, two men to whom he
had shown one hundred dollar Treasury note
have been arrested as the murderers. They
hired buggy Immediately after Mr.. Rhoden-
baughs departure, and the evidence that they
are guilty is tolerably conclusive, as the horse
was seen hitched where the large club was cut
and they were arrested in the buggy. Beery
is a deserter from the army
