Hiwassee Masonic Institute,

The session at the Masonic Institute. Cal.
houn, commenced on the Sd, and we learn the
number Of pupils already in attendance reach
es nearly one hundred. The Principal in this
popular institution, Mr.. II. CATE, is not only
thoroughly qualified himself, but has u corps
OF highly competent assistants. His system
Of teaching partakes largely of the practical,
and is conducted more particularly with refer
ence to ENGRAVING the principles of education
in the mind of the student. The people Of the
locality and neighborhood are noted for good
morals and temperate habits; they are in har-
monious relations with one another, and all
seem to have the success Of the School much
at heart. Boarding can be had ut unusually
low rates, and comfortable rooms for students
who may desire to board themselves. Another
feature in this institution is, young men who
wish to obtain an education. and who are well
recommended for morality and integrity, will
be received whether they have money or not.
All things considered, Hiwassee Masonic In
stitute presents some decided advantages, and
we take pleasure in commencing it to the at
tention Of all in pursuit of educational facil-
ties. and especially to such as are not blessed
with the most ample means.
Information ia regard to tuition. etc., can be
obtained by addressing either the President or
Secretary Of the Board, or the Principal, Char
lesion, Tennessee.

.'ff - - SUNNY SIDE, July 80.
Editor Post: Having read your excellent
weekly since its publication, and knowing you
to be friend to enterprise, we thought 1t due
that the reading public should know some
thing of the grand Improvement which the
Iron Company are efiecting in Roane county,
Tennessee. They are building up pretty
village 1t is situated in delightfully."- roman
tic locality, at the base of walden's Ridge. tits
named RoCKwooD, in honor of one of the most
energetic citizens of the place. Very appropri-
atcly. too, as the landscape itself would sug-
gest the name. The enterprsing Company are
quietly planning and laboring for the improve
nlent of the place. 1 think we must admit
that we East Tennessenns are deficient in en-
terprise and energy, If not IN industry, and in
need of a wholesome solution of Yankee and
foreign enterprise, thrift, economy, and persc-
yerance to make us a new people, and to
render this naturally rich country not less
productive and remuncrative than the vast
prairies of the West f.....
Important minerals abound in rich profti-
sion in Waldcn's Ridge. Building-stone is
plentiful; iron is found in abundance near in
exhaustibe coal. beds, thus adding by its stu
alton to its value; while springs ofpure water
gush from the mountain side. Only few miles
south of lockwood there Is considerable riv-
ulet falling overh ledge of rock,i forming cat.
aract almost half as high as that of Niagara,
and far more beautiful and picturesque,
though by no means SO grand and impressive
The location of lockwood is decidedly the best
that could have been selected The improve

the last six months is really astonishing. Only
few months ago the spot where the thriving
village now stands was dense, unbroken for
est. Among other improvements we noted the
Portable Steam Mill, and the elegant residences
Of Gen. WILDER and Maj. ANDERSON. They
seem to have sprung up as if by magic. The
Company are building road to the coal-banks,
raising a foundry building, erecting new resi-
dences, and, in short, making all necessary inn
provements which the place demands. 1t is
lively town. Every one seems to have some-
thing to do, and all appear determined to per-
form their part. The amount of labor perform
ed there in short period of time is almost ill.,
credible. ..t.., "a
lockwood will doubtless soon become ia.
vorite resort for inval.ds, as there Is a chaly.
beate spring ut hand of superior medicinal
qualities. The pure mountain air and healthy
water will aid in rendering it desirable re-
sort. Nature has done her part in contribut-
ing to the beauty of the place. Should the en-
terprise there in the Iron business prove sue
cess, Rockwoo is destined to be among the
first towns in East Tennessee. trust the en-
terprise will succeed beyond expectation, and
that the parties engaged in itmay reap fortunes
from those tracts of land which have remained
so long appropriated, uncultivated, and almost
unclaimed. Respectfully,
LIZZIE WILSON,

Western and Atlantic Railroad.

We notice that Maj. CAMPBELL WALLACE is
no longer Superintendent of the Western and
Atlantic Railroad, the radical Governor of
Georgia having appointed L. HUBERT, the
Express man, to that position. We are not ad-
vised that Major WALLACE desired to hold the
office. From our knowledge of the man,
we are confident he could not have been in
duced to retain it moment longer than he
could make the enterprise subserve and pro-
mote the objects for which it was designed and
constructed. That gentleman has honestly
and fairly earned the reputation of being one
Of the very ablest railroad men in the country,
Every work of the kind which he has
touched has Immediately commenced to pro-
gress, flourish and prosper. When Maj. WAL
LACE took charge Of the Western and Atlantic
1t was little else than a mass of ruins. Under
his supervisiOn-his energy and capacity--it
has become the most complete line in the South
complete from one end to the other-in its
machine shops, its equipment, and in the char
acter Of its employees. While the retiring SUI
perintendent has been doing this great work,
he has made the Road pay large revenue in
to the State Treasury, and meet its indebted
ness to the General Government. .....
We can say thus much, as due Maj. WAL
LACE, because we know something of the la
bors he has accomplished since he took charge
Of the Western and Atlantic line, and are cog
infant Of the faithfulness Of his efforts to make
it serve the interests of the State. Without
designing to question the business capacity Of
his successor, we shall be disappointed If the
people Of Georgia do not have cause to regret
the change. .. 49, ...-.

Rev. VIM. A. Nelson.

We clip the following paragraph from the
Jonesboro' Flag of last week:
During the first part of this week, the Ma.
sonic Fraternity of this place was favored with
a visit from the Deputy Grand Lecturer, Rev.
w. A. NELSON, of Ricevlle. Brother MEL
son possesses the rare faculty of making hosts
of friends wherever he goes-to know him is to
love him! .,.
During the last year, he has performed no.
BILE work for Masonry in East Tennessee-vis-
iting nearly every Lodge in this Division of the
State, so as to enable them to adopt the uni
form work laid down by the Grand Lodge of
Tennessee

Died,

At his residence near Albany, Missouri, on
the 9th July, MARSHALL w. CUNNINGHAM,
in the 63d year of his age. The deceased some
years ago emigrated from this county to Mis-
souri,. He was a brother of Col. MOSES CUM
NINGHAM, and had many friends and relatives
here. The Albany paper pays tribute to the
worth of the deceased, and says he was buried
with Masonic honors, of which fraternity he
had been member.

Circuit Court.

Circuit Court met on Monday, Judge ADAMS
presiding. The State docket was pretty well
disposed Of on that day. The few cases were
of trivial character, and resulted in acquit-
tai. Unless there should be good deal of new
business cut out by the grand jury, the term
of the Court will probably not be protracted
much, If any, beyond the present week.
The only civil case of Importance that has
been disposed Of, was The State of Tennes-
see Us VIM. II. Ballew, Prest, etc, and others,
In which the plaintiff was non. suited.
The Athens post. [volume] (Athens, Tenn.) 1848-1917, 1868-08-14

GB- On Tuesday, our old friend, Gen. JIM
HICKEY, of Roane county, gave us call. The
General was thorough and consistent Union
man throughout the war and an earnest sup
porter of the Government. He is now, of
course, anti-radical, and opposed to the ruin
GUS policy of that party. 1t always does us
good to take an honest man by the hand though
we may have differed with him in political
sentiment as widely AS the poles.
