The Grant Mnuemnnt-

On Wednesday of last week, one of the
largest and most entBdsiactic primary meet
ing ever known in this country, was held at
Cooper Institute, New. York, 1t was presi-
ded over by A. T.. Stewart the Merchant
Prince Of Gotham, assisted by some two
hundred Of its leading business men. The
resolutions eulogizing the brilliant services
of Gen. Grant md nominating him for Presi-
dent were carried by reclamation.
On last Monday evening the Union League
of P iladelphia, the most Influential organi-
sation in America, numbering two thousand
of the leading men of Pennsylvania, bankers
lawyers, capitalists, clergymen, manufactu-
rers and mechanics decided in favour Of
Grant. His candidacy on the Republican
tickle. and. election are foregone conclusions.
Roll on the ball, the ranks Of the Democracy
will waver and take to Sight before its APP
proach.

Teachers Institute.

The loyal Legislature Of our great and
growing State, one year ago, in their wis
dom, enacted a Common School law, which
is now being appreciated by all our people
who are in favour Of educating NIL classes,
sex and color, Many who FIRST opposed this
law are now heartily in favor Of it, and are
eIerting themselves IL organizing sub-school
districts, and are seeking teachers who are
qualified under this law to teach their chill
dren.
We have been informed by those who are
presumed to be cognizant Of the fact, that 10
many portions of our country, qualified per-
sons cannot be found to take charge of their
schools. The question arises, what can be
done to supply this deficiency. 1t has been
suggested that Professor Presnell, or some
one who is competent to Go so, open = Teach
era Institute for the benefit of those who pur-
pose making teaching a profession. The
more schools and colleges we have in cur
community, conducted upon a proper basis,
the better it will be fct our people, morally
and financially We hope TO BE- able in a
short time to announce The fact that a move
ment has been made towards establishing
such an Institution in or near this place. !.
School teaching IL, and should be regarded
as one Of the most laudable professions in
orr country. Many Of the young people In
'he South, prior to the war, were taught to
believe that none hut the igno6Is would be
found engaged in teaching. But thanks
and pfaise be to a kind Providence those
days have passed away, and higher and
nobler sentiments are now entertained By all
classes. The very BEST F1en that have oeeu-
pied, and NE now oteipyihg prominent po-
'itions in Church and In State, we're once
teachers in our public Schools and Colleges.
Here they laid the foundation for future use
ialnesS and greatness. Men and wofsn Of
the best morals should DO employed to take
charge Of our schools, and whilst engaged 10
laeir mission, they will be able to train and
discipline the minds and hearts Of tho young
ior future usefulness.

COLLEGE.

We arc glad to see that measures are being
kind in Knoxville and a grant Of land has
been Obtained for the purpose. Very few
of our farmers understand the system Of pro.
ductive agricultural labor, and knowledge in
this profession is as essential aud indespch-
sible as il any other. We wish the enter
prise every success and from the character oil
the gentleman at its head we believe that it
will be early and permanently established.

president,s Message.

We can not burden our columns with this
tedious and elaborate Public Document. 1t
is devoted mainly to the exposition and de-
fence Of the Presidents course and theories
in regard to reconstruction. We are some
what surprised at the mildness Of temper it
displays, but it Is far from being free from
those manifestations of obstinNcy and mu-
E,6nss,, characteristic o: its author. On the
whole it is a little respectable considering
the source from which it emanateS.

16S- In otr remarks last week In regard
to tue failures of ou- paper to reach a sub
scriber at Freedom P. O., we did not mean to
attribute it to the negligence of our town
Postmaster Mr.. s. S. Luttrell. Our papers
are mailed on the cars ard do not pass
through his hands. Mr.. Lrttrell is polite,
prompt and faithful in the performance of his
duties, and any complaints made against him
for the manner OF conducting his Office are
utterly without foundation.

Hoffman, the woman who was stabbed In church
last Sunday by her divorced husband died Sa-

stripe twisted them into q rope, which he passed
through the hole around the side of the parti-
tion and around his neck.
The body was standing square on the floor
when found this m orniug, and though his neck
was somewhat stretched, it is evident bis feet
were not entirely clear OF the floor, unless he
drew them up while hanging himself. His sus-
penders were twisted into a cord and tied
tightly around his neck also; a handkerchief
was drawn closely around his head and over
his u outh, indicating that be attempted to sus.

He wa lett suspended in his cell till this after

buried. Citizens had rec access to the cell all

for not fecuring the prisoner SO as to prevent
bic taking his own he. He has expressed q
sh o. late that his wife would live, but at first
only wanted TO bear she was dead and then he
would be satisfied.
