mission of his companion and himself
was to learn, by personal observation,
how commercial intercourse between
China and the American cities could be

THE TENNESSEE ELECTION.


AS the readers of the News are aware,
the Tennessee election resulted 10 the
triumph of Sentcr, the Conservative can
didate, BY q large majority. Late par
ticulars Of the campaign show that the
Democrats closely initiated the tactics
their political brethren had previously
adopted in Virginia. Instead of making
a hopeless attempt to elect an acknowl-
edged champion of their party, they
gave a unanimous and hearty support to
q candidate who, up to this time, has
been a prominent member of the Re-
publican organization. When Brown
low was made q United States Senator
his old official mantle fell upon Senter,
and in the late campaign the Parson
Endorsed in the strongest terms, as u
good and faithful Republican, the mau
who has just been elected by the aid Of
tue Democracy Of the State. Stokes
was obnoxious, on personal grounds, to
a considerable portion of his party, and
as neither candidate had received a reg.
ular nomination, in consequence of a
split in the nominating convention, a
considerable number Of Republicans felt
at liberty to vote according to their per-
sonal predictions, and pr0ferriug Sen.
ter, they sustained him. The Democrats
made the most of the opportunity. In
return for their assistance in the Guber-
material contest they exactod reciprocal
aid in the election Of members Of the
Legislature; and now m angry contest
for the United States Senatorship is
threatened. Andrew johnson looms up
as a formidable candidate, and yet a
portion Of the victorious party are Bit
terly opposed to his pretensions.
Brownlow has assured his friends
that the appearance of the ex-Prssident
on the floor of the tribunal where he
was so recently arraigned would un.
doubtedly be prevented. But it is
alleged that the Democracy have secured
q large majority in the Legislature, and
if they are determined to send Andy
back to Washington they will not feel
disposed to consult the wishes Of the
Parson.

Catholic Schools.

The Roma niSts of this country have
always been hostile to our system of free
schools, which, by furnishing the means
of education to the children of all classes,
has been distinguishing feature in our
new institutions, and the great extermina.
tor of prejudice and superstition. And as
intelligence always promotes independ-
ence in thought and and action, this has
sadly interfered with priestcraft, and
threatens no longer to be bound by its
chains.
And now the combined hierarchy of
the papal church is set to the overthrow
Of the free schools by insinuating into
our laws some provision where the coun-
try may be taxed to support the schools
of their religious sect.
Last winter strong effort was made in
the New York Legislature, that being
considered the most corrupt legislative
body of this nation, to secure the pas
sage of a bill appropriating portion of
the school fund to the support of secta-
rian schools. But being defeated in this
they resorted to New York city, where
they held supreme power, and adroitly
inserted clause in the tax levy of that
;i'y giving about 5000 to the private
ecclesiastical schools.
And as other religious denominations
find the public schools amply competent
to educate their children, they of course
have but few private schools. thus giving
the Catholics nearly all the apnropria-
tio1.
So that the citizens of all parties and
faith are to be taxed for the schools of
one faith, and that bitterly opposed to the
fundamental principles of American in
situations. The Catholics of this country
are calling upon the people to do the
same thing they so bitterly complain of
the English doing in Ireland
Our free schools are for all sects and
denominations. In them we teach only
the arts and sciences. When we wish to
prepare our own students to teach reli-
gious doctrines. each denomination trains
them in the peculiar dogmas of its sect at
its own expense. So let the Roman
Catholics do But let no sectarian school
be supported by public tax.

MoRMoNIsM IN NORTH CAROLINA
Mention has already been made of the
fact that two Mormon elders had been
prosecuting in North Carolina. and that
they had managed in two counties to
make one hundred and thirty converts.
1t is said that the people seem to be
deeply imbued with the particular doc
trine of that sect. and to have full faith
in their leader. They have sold off their
property, whenever practicable, and will
make fresh start in the land of promise
Some OF them. being unable to dispose of
their lands, left them, rather than be left
behind. The men seem to be entirely of
the industrial classes, stout, sunburned
forms, and would be an invaluable acquisi-
ton to any community. The women,
with one or two exceptions, seem to be
entirely destitute of personal charms, and
if the universal reports of Mormondom
be true, they will, in many instances. of
be destined to become hewers
wood and drawers of water tor more
favored fair ones.

presented her loving husband with a
bouncing pair of twins. What do you
suppose that chap did. Hop around,

rushed out of the house, and hasn't
been seen since. The time and twins
