ssyi From the Knoxville Free Press Vt extract the following: The trustees of the East Tennessee Wesleyan college, al Athens, announce in their advertisement for the fall session that the normal depart. ment of said college twill open, irre pee tire of eokos, to all desiring to become teachers Parents who desire to educate their sons and daughters for teachers, will take notice that their children can enjoy privileges at this institution, We believe, no where else offered, viz perfect social equality with the negro The white and black, male and female in this depart ment, will meet in the same room, sit up. one the same benches, bo elassea together and recite together. Two years ago this mixing and intermugling of al. eolors and sexes in our schools would have been regarded no. only as an insult, but great crime. But this party of progress" have recently discovered that prejudice alone has prevented perfect equality of the two races heretofore, Will the citizens of Athens quietly pocket this gross insult and compel their children to submit to this equality and association with an ignorant
 brutal class . We will see what we will

Hl- Nothing material has turned np r m and around the city of Dcs Arc, aver thing seems 10 remain in "stntu quo" In political circles we have but littlo to note.

Wc bide our time and live :n hope Of a brighter future, ye.to dawn upon the unfortunate peo- pie of our section. Moacs once said to sa tho Hebrews: .siand still and see the salvation oi the Lord.p And in imita- ten of that illustrious leader and Jew ish lawgiver, we say to the people of the South, "stand etill" until the troubled waters tpolitically) shall be- come calm, until prejudices have time b to subsido and passion luils to quiet. There ia hope of atrec if 1t be cut down --aud surely we have been cut down yet our day to sprout will come, we are awaiting the second sober thought q of the people North and South. Let the southern people show 10 the world tha, they can patiently submit 10 hard ships, quietly bear the burdens conse- quent upon failure to establish a separate political organization aud in good faith practically carry out the adaptations of the surrender entered into by such men as Robert T.. Lee Joseph E. Johnson and other dlst:n- gIished chief,ains of the recent rebel lion If others violate the constitution and prove recreant to their plighted faith, let the sin lie at their own door and the future historian will chronicle the facts as they transpire in this our day of tribulation. Aovcrsity is the school in which great men as well as great nations have been trained, while prosperity ie the hamburger of evil and misfortune to men as well as to na- tions. Enlightened minds and virtu. ous manners can never be long en- a,aved.
 Let the good people of Des Arc and the surrounding country, turn their at tention to local Improvements, and to the social order of things with which we have to do every day Let us as soon as our financial abilities win war. rant, go to work il good earnest and help 10 put substancal bridge over Bayou Des Arc and Bayou Wattcnsaw, and help to improve all the roads that center at Des Arc; overseers have been appointed and commissioned to work and improve the various roads in tho county.

Suppression of the Albany, aa., News--The Article that Gave 0fense.
 A brief telegram 10 the Associated Press announced that General Pope John Pope had suppressed the Albany (Geor- gia) Mtses for expressing disloyal senti. ments It may gratify the reader to zee the article which this King John accounts dlsIoyal-en end so we copy it, entire, below ;
 KING JOHN.
 Juhn Pope. cue of the five American monarchs, aud King of Georgia, Alabama and Forlda, has issued hls Royal Ediet, No 49 Had any one predicted five years ago that person would be cloised with authority or placed in position tc issue such an order in this country, be would have been accounted fit only for ? lunatic asylum but now, 30 far from that, we are beconling accustomed to such things, and are lowing our necks under the impearial yoke with all due submission
 King John, when he was nothing but a Major General, had his headquarters in the saddle" but now he sits on throne erected in Atlanta, and yields scepter over a realm embracing what some people are simple enough to believe "arc three States of the Union,' to wit: Alabama, Georgia and Flordia. In those States newspapers are printed, and people, to make their business known, advertise in them; civil officers arc also in the habit of informing, through these papers, the people of the time and place of public meetings in which they. are interested The edict No. 40, from His Majesty, King John. directs that these civil officers must publish their advertisements in q certain class of newspapers--tbose favora- ble to tho congressional policy of recon struction, and he instruets all military off cers, of whatever degree, grade, or style of service to sec that this edict is strictly enforced, and to promptly arrest and re- port the slightest violation of 1t.
 King John has, in reality, no sucll power and authority It IS an assump- ton of dcspotism which no absolute mon. arch in the world, except one of the five American .Uonarells, would dare think of for moment. It would cost tic fling dom and rhrone of the Migh.iest ruler m Universe to attempt such an abridgment of the peoples rights. How long will the American people submit to such things ? Can't they see the inevitable tendency of the Spirit of '76g' The quicker Hing Johns throne crumbles to the dust the bctter,it will be for the country.

Black Congressman,

The colored people of Georgia are share in the offices. and in many in- stanes are receiving encouragement from the better portion of the white population. The following extract from an address of James Patrick Fick- ling, Q colored man, announcing him. self as candidate for Congress ill the first district of that State, is "heavy document" and shows that there is at least one .'culled individual" who un- derStands the Radicals:
 II am not ambitious for the notorie- ty of candidacy for Congress. nor would I consider myself elevated to a post of honor were l elected to seat in the present Congress; but consider ations of the gravest moment to my own race, and to the country at large, impel me to the conviction that the surest remedy for Radical evils is for the South to return colered represcn- tatives in preference to strengthening the Radical vote, by sending any of their white representatives at present among us. I am sufficiently posted in the political affairs of this country to know, that it is utterly impossible for any white man from tle excluded States, who has any claims to respect ability, intelligence or siatesmanship, to obtain scat in either House of Con gress. This prescription affords the most conclusive evidence of . deter mined purpose on the part of the dom inant party to suppress the truth, and to employ such instruments only as arc capable of being used for the propasa- ton of error and the perpetnatioD of party aseendency.
 There is nothing more certain than that there can be no reconstruction un- der the present existing Legislation, ex- cept on the Radical basis, and by the entire Radicalization of the Southern States, which, in my humble judgment, means anarchy, war aud tine carly des : traetion of the colored race on this continent Of course. ruin will result to the white race, and the whole coun- try must suffer untold evils in the se- oucl of our desiruetion. It is, there fore, the duty of every honest man at the South, black and white, to look this question squarciy in the face, and, II pOsSlDie. GNtIt the ithpcuulHs iuth'

An exchange says: "The Indian Commissioners, now in the West, have been questioning the prominent mili- tary commanders on the Plains as to the number of troops and the amount of money likely to be required for an effectual prosecution of the war. Ac- cording to the New York Tribune, the result of these enquiries is that with 50, 600 men, three-quarters of them cav airy, and sn expenditure of S500,000,- j. 000, VIC may be able to conquer peace in about five years This is rather . dismal prospect for the success of Il war of extormnation' such as is urged in some quarters.

[From the New York Herald Single Development Ofthe Bankruptcy
 Law,

The petition of George L. Schuyler, to be adjudged bankrupt and discharged from all his debts, affords an insight into the reckless manner in which business is conducted in the city of New York. The petitioner IS brother of Robert Schuyler, i, the former President of the New Haven railroad who left this country in eonse- quenec of the exposure of the well reniem- bered frauds in which he was implicated and died in Italy The indebtedness Of George l. Schuyler is set down at not less than four million dollars and he swears that he has no assets whatever, neither land; property, stock, household goods. wearing apparel nor personal property of any description" He is literally cleaned uut--a respectable. upper ten panper; and vet from the list of his confaiug creditors, he appears to have enjoyed good credit, and remarkable facility for borrowing money.
 Amoug his creditors for ''money loaned are some gentlemen who eujoy the reputa- ton of cautious, prudent business men. The brokers figure very prominently s.a .se...vef sa aiic M5uhattan Uiuv p5iitl- clan is touched to the tune of SlS2 ,0U0. One well known broker figures iu the schedule for S329 900 for smoney loaned" Four other firms in the samo business evinced similar confidence ia the bank rupt to the gross amount of about SlO0,- 900. Sone sharp lawyers are creditors for one hundred thousand the great rail- road king suffers for over half million, and Governor Morris for quarter of a million, all on the same description of indebtedness. The loans by themselves amount to over 8 ,0G00
 This is probably only one of a number of cases that will arise under tho operation of the new bankrupt law, in which the reckless manner of doing business iu this rushing, erowding, speculating. hairbrain- cd metropolis will be strikingly illustrated.
