examination was very interesting.
The scholars were unusually viva
.cious, and answered questions with a
spirit that was quite entertaining
Even the few mistakes that were
made, seemed only to add tc the in
terest, because of the rapidity with
which they we're CORRECTED byI other
members Of the class. We were also
pleased to observe the efforts made
by the scholars to assign in their own
Language, reasons for the various an
swers given in reply to the questions
asked Many of these were wrong,
but the attempt showed that they had
been taught to think for themselves,
as well as recite the lessons in the
books. The whole Examination mus.
have been very satisfactory to the.
friends Of the school, and was GER

ability of the teachers.

Some time since the Press and Times
gave very circumstantial account of
how a gang of Ku-Klux left documents
at the house of one Patrick Haney, a
"loyal man, living near Waverly, Tenn,
warning him to leave the country, but he
paid no attention to the notice, and went
on with his work how subsequently, a
large company of men, disguised and
armed, dragged him out Of his house,
about midnight, carried him to a creek
three miles distant, tied a rope round his
neck, and dragged him up and down the
creek, pulled out his hair and beard,
kicked and whipped him, and left him
lying insensible in the woods and how
he was found the following evening by
his wife in most horrible condition. In
note addressed to the editor of the
Press and Times, dated Nashville, March
%, Mr.. Thomas E. Goulding says:
al am authorized by the citizens OF
Waverly to contradict a statement in your
issue of last week, to the effect that man
named Pat Haney had been beaten and
