A MODEL RADICAL MEMBER OF CON,
GRESS.

The New York Tribune has some personal
sketches of the members of the House of
Representatives. Among others is the fol-
lowing:
In another part of the Hou-e stands a
1.-the, small person, hardly beyond boyhood,
with eyes and hair of midnight black, yet
looking and moving like a tiger. This
is JOHN K. KEIso, of extreme southern
Missouri, who is said TO have killed more
than sixty rebels with his own hands. He
is SCARED and shot from sole to crown, and
in the border episodes of the war holds a
strange wild prominence, where in the bit
terness Of the fight he retorted upon indi-
vidual rebels the violence they inaugurated,
and hunted them, alone and persistently,
like one in a reRdettd.
The trouble with KEISo is, that he car
ries his bloody spirit into the halls of legis-
lation in time Of peace. He is not old
enough yet, perhaps, to distinguish between
the duties of soldier and a statesman. The
true friends of Union and liberty have little
to hope for from such members.

LATER FROM VERA CRUZ.
The COrtIOva Affair.

From the Matamoros RancherO, June l6.l
Capt. THoRHAM, of the English screw
steamer Pisano, came up from below yester
day, direct from Vera Cruz, which place he
left Monday evening last.
There was little yellow fever at Vera Cruz
but none among the shipping.
That Cordova affair turns out that nobody
was killed, and had nothing to do with the
Liberal party.
From what we can learn, several Ameri-
cans took advantage Of some poor Mexican
girls, which aroused the indignation of rel
atives. The consequence was that an armed
party, friends and relations of the girls
seized and carried off fifteen Americans.
None had been killed or would be. Two of
the party had been released who said the
others were safe.
If this be true, which beyond doubt it
is, the parties who committed the outrage
on the girls ought to have been hung on the
spot.
The English screw steamer Pisdno,
THoRNHAM, commanding, will leave for
New Orleans on the Goth inst. The Pisan0
is fast safe and seaworthy.

STATE MEMS.


= The Gallatin Examiner says: There
will be magnificent corn crop in Sumner,
should the season continue favorable The
fields are everywhere clear of weeds, and
look finely. The oats crop is also very pro-
missing. In fact everything seems to be
thriving. The wheat, although light, is very
superior.
The Chattanooga american Union SAYS
that buyers in that market are proposing TO
pay s. for all good merchandise wheat de-
ivered.
The Columbia, Maury County He-old
says of the wheat crop in that vicinity In
almost every instance the yield exceeds ex
pectations. This is very apt to be the case
every year. We hear of new wheat selling
at So and we presume it will not go higher,
unless the Northern and Northwestern crop
should fall short, witch is not looked for now
We copy the following additional para
graphs from the Herald:
We were shown a few stalks of cotton
pulled from one of the Arkansas farms of Gen
PILLOW, that would do to brag on anywhere.
The General tells us that he scarcely ever
had better prospects, both in Tennessee and
Arkansas. We heartily wish that he may
surpass his most sanguine expectations,
both as to the yield Of his crop and the price
it brings.
One of the best farms in Maury
county, which is equal to saying one of
the best in America was sold a few days
ago for sixty thousand dollars in gold,
which was at the rate of 500 an acre. w.
ID. HENDLEY was the seller, and Mr..
METcALF the purchaser. Mr.. NJ. is very
fortunate in his purchase, as it is very
rare that such farm can be bought at any
price, and it is well worth every dollar of
the money.
Last Monday night was extremely cold,
and the High Sheriff of this county is our
authority for stating that quite shower of
snow fell at his house. He is sober man
and bears a very good character fortruth and
verracity, and don't get drunk. So we take
the snow on trust.
We lean that on Thursday morning
about daylight, as Mr.. "BUCK" howell, of
the 11th district in this county, was leaving
his house, he was MORALLY wounded by some
unknown person, discharging into his head
and shoulders a charge of buclshot. No
clue TO the assassin has been discovered.

FELLow-CrT1zENs, when Latium rebelled
against Rome and was subdued by her arms,
the question arose, "What shall be done

Rome"

CoNNUNIcATE
EDUCATIONAL INTERESTS OF
NASHVILLE.

In the experience of the past nothing has
been more clearly demonstrated, than the
fact, that Hygienic measures applied to the
regulation Of society, has resulted in remov-
ing and mitigating suffering, and sensibly
decreasing the rate Of mortality among the
human race. And as Hygiene teaches US
the advantages accruing from cleansing the
alleys purifying the streets, and thoroughly
draining the cess-pools Of all offensive mat
ter attendent upon the physical structure OF
Of our city, 50 education points with author
ity not to be disregarded to the advantages
gained, and the benefits resulting from the
cleansing and purifying Of the naturally foul
avenues Of the moral and mental structure
Of the same.
Faithfully has the latter responsibility
been attended 10 by our city fathers in APP
pointing and sustaining a Board Of Educa-
ton that con,ended with greater difficulties
than any Of its predecessors; being composed
Of men, some Of them eminent teachers,
noted for the ability shown in the various
callings of their lives, the present Board OF
Education has infused life, vigour, sys-
TEN and order into an Institution,
where it found the bare walls only OF
school houses and no funds to equip them.
And although the schools had been in sue
cessiul operation before the war, its ravages
and long continuance had not only sus-
pended them, but almost swept away the
vcstiges that characterize a schOol-rOom.
The city cxchequer was empty from the
stress Of recently ended war; fences were
10 be repaired, walks relaid, the different
buildings put in order, and rooms refurnish-
ed with all the paraphernalia necessary for
successful operations. Teachers, experienced,
tried, and trustworthy, were to be sought
and secured, in proportion to the capacity
shown for their calling. All the various
and disc9rdant elements that are involved
in the formation Of public schools were to
be harmonized and nodded into uniform
and consistent working system that would
subserve the interests Of all.
Has this not been done? All the trust
and confidence reposed in the Board. COM
posed Of such men as p. S. FALL, j. w.
HoYT, l.. G. TARBoX, J. L. WEAKLEY, T.
A. ATcHIsoN, +. II. EAST, etc, have been
fully, honorably, and wisely discharged.

working order Of the City Schools, to satisfy
any distrust in regard to their success and
vast public benefit.
