SCHOOL MONEY.
How IL Is to be Drawn from the state
Treasury.


The Superintendent of Public In
struction has just addressed letter
to b. Rush, of Shelby County, in
which he says: ... ..l.. aali|
The State intends to meet every
obligation, whether educational or
otherwise. Every requisition on the
School Fund for Distribution has to
be examined in this Office. Every
roquisition that has com. to hand
and been found in accordance with
the requirements of law has been APP
proved; the Comptroller has at once
issued his warrant for the PAYMENT,
and the Treasurer cashed 1t at sight.
This il is intended TO do, till every
cent due for services rendered and
called for at the end of the next five
months term of schools now being
opened in nearly every county of the
State has been paid. 'Simrle compli-
ance with law is all that is necessary
to receive the money. q nj HiV'i
Ii you intended your Inquiries
should include the Permanent Fund,
| may say that IL was in the bank of
| Tennessee, and shared its fate i'm the
/ rebellion. Notwithstanding this, rs
| the State Government l. constitui-
| tlonally bound for the whole, thepre-
sent state Government has already
restored n portion Of it, ant is prepar-
ing TO make good the enthe amount.
This can bc easily done by the sale of
! railroads, In the construction of whicli
the State has aided, and til 1t are now
unable to pay the interest on the
bonds issued and Endorsed for therl
by the State.
I hope you and the friends aroulSl
you will spare no pains TO secure coIi-
ipliance with the School Law. Let
the schools open; let there be light
No other necessity Is mole imperi-
tive. Neither the State nor the coIA-
munity control n more useful instrlt
mentality, OF whose benefits are morl
demanded by the eNigenciGs OF thl
hour than free public schools. Saw
the children by training them to VIM
tue and intelligence, and the future
safety, peace and prosperity Of oul
communities are assured.

ments, and provided that the appoint
ees should continue until their
"succesors' were elected or appointed.
1T was expcctedr that for an Indefinite
period, elections would be impracta-
bic, and therefore, extraordinery pow
ers tosppoint suitable persons to Office
to succeed the appointees of the Mill
tary Governor in the event of AVA
cancy, was intended to be exer-
cised by tho civil Governor; in immi-
.tation Of the Military Governor, for
as yet, the country was. regarded, So
cially and morally disorganized, and
not relieved from the necessities I'M
der which the Military Governor,
had made appointments. In other
words, the purpose was, In some
measure, to Keep in force the extra
ordinary powers of the Military Gov
ernor In view Of the unsettled state of
the country. The occasion and reas-
Ons which gave rise to an amendment
to the Constitution, mustbe called In,
when the Language may be doubtful,
80 far as the occasion Will throw light
upon the language used There Is
nothing In the schedule to give the
Civil Governor power to remove an
officer at will, whose term has not
expired by law. The qualified voters
and no other appointing power can
remove an officer ut will, whose term
is fixed by law, If the Civil !, Cover
nor under the law could appoint a
"successor" to the appointees of the
Military Governor, he could not vary
the term for which he should hold,
for the term is one law, and the pow
err to appoint another, the power ofone
being in the Governor, and not the
other. .ian
1t will he remembered that the
amendment itself to the Constitution,
was extraordinary In its manner and
character, and only justified from the
force of circumstances. TWAS made
to enlarge the instrument and make
it compatible with the changed policy
of the nation, and to supplant militia

election ordered for members of a

THE militia bill, rs passed, Is a
practical defeat of the extremely war
like Radicals headed by the fighting
parson, and we doubt If the bill Is not
nullity, in consequence of morally
impossible conditions annexed to its
enforcement. Thelaw gives the Gov
ernor no power to send militia to any
county unless the Necessity for them
isaffirmed by ten unconditional Union
men of good moral standing in said
county We do not believe ten such
can be found in the whole State, and
when required Of q single county, 1t
Is apparent that the law must be in
operative by virtue of the impossible
conditions upon which its enforce
ment is based. f' Htp' H.
But, I'm addition to this objection, 1t
was thoughtless and imprudent to de-
volve upon ten men, in q county, the
responsibility of subjecting such coun-
ty to the unwelcome, and perhaps
disastrous, visit of lawless militia.
And in counties where the military
is supposed to be most needed, the re-
sponsibility will be most hazardous,
and the boldest Radical will be likely
to hesitate about putting his name
upon record as petitioner for such a
curse upon the community in which
he lives. r.s @ ...
The bill is savage enough to satisfy
the most brutal. Still, adherence tC
its conditions will elfectually emascu-
llateit. ,,.f.-..,r ...t..I ....... .,.
