KukluX OutrageS.
SHELBYVILLE. Oct. 6


MEsSRS. EDITORS On the night of the
26th of August last, unknown parties, set on
fire and burned colOred church and
school house near William YOung's, known
as Mullins Chapel. The supposed cause is
that the colored people worshipped God,
and were having their children educated
there.
On the night of September 23d, num-
Der of diguised men surrounded the home
of Dick Bunfey, cOlored. After various at
tempts to decoy him from his home, they
fired ten shots at him, but failed to do any
damage. The same night the same par
ties or others in kuklux disguise visited
Grant Moor's. After abusing his house and
furniture, taking many liberties with him
and eating up what provisions they could
find they left threatening to return at
some future time.
On the night of the oath of September,
they attacked the residence of George Ivey
and VIM. Cannon, cOlOred men, whipping
them both severely. All this was in Bed
ford county.
The Kulllux took three colored men from
the Jail at Winchester OH the 9th of Sep
TENDER, and hung them. No attempt was
made to arrest the guilty parties.
The K. k are making almost nightly
visits throughout all this portion of Ten
nessee. Yet, in the face of these facts, the
Democracy are proclaiming that our State
seldom, if ever, enjoyed so much quiet
How striking are the words of Holy Writ
since Democracy came into power-"When
the wicked rule, the people mourn" If
there is not cause for mourning over the
present state of the country, there will be
if Democracy attains power in the Nation
al councils. BEDFORD.

Sabbath school Meeting.

A Sunday school meeting was held at Middle
brook on the evening of October Sd.
On motion, ". r. Cooper was called to the
chair and W. b. Ragsdale elected secretary.
After devotional exercises the following ques-
TONS were taken up in order and discussed in
spirited manner
l. Can our country Sabbath Schools be sue
cessfully maintained during the winter?
The discussion was opened by Mr. Griffin,
Superintendent of Middlebrook school, who
gave BIT as his opinion that, with the proper efforts
and earnestnesS on the part of the teachers and
and others engaged in the work, country Sab
bath Schools could be successfully maintained
during the winter months.
MIR. Frazier spoke earnestly in regard to the
question IN negative style.
MessrS Porter, Mullins and others engaged
in the discussion
The time allowed for the discussion of the
subject having expired, the association joined
heartily IN hymn appropriate to the occasion.
2. Is it as much our duty to maintain the Sab
bath School in the winter as during the sum-
mer?
The discussion was opened by Mr.. Parham in
very earnest and appropriate manner.
3. Should a teacher beabsent from his class to
attend church?
The discussion was opened by Mr.. Porter
Mr.. Parham gave it as his opinion that teach
er should not be absent from his class except in
cases of absolute necessity.
4. To what extent should teacher prepare
himself to come before his class?
Mr.. Frazier led the discussion. Mr. Griffin
gave it as his opinion that there should be no
limit to the preparation requisite.
5. Who first becomes tired of the Sunday
School?
Mr.. Mullins was of the opinion that the teach
ers were to blame, which opinion seemed to
prevail.
g. Shall we have a district association?
All engaged in the discussion of this question,
giving it as their opinion that district associa-
ton would do good in the Sunday School cause
A quarterly district association was agreed
upon.
A motion instructing the Secretary to furnish
the daily papers with copy of these proceed
ingS was carried
The association then adjourned to meet at
Third Creek Church, 18th district, on the Both
of December, 1871. w. r. COOPER.

An ingenious mechanic in Auburn,
y. Y, SAYS the Net1s Of that city, for
nearly a year past has been employing
his leisure hours in studying out some
plan TO make a self-supplying ehemi-
cal power TO take the place Of steam,
and to make IL move a piece Of ma
chinery having the motion of a horse.
He claims to have brought that also
to q degree Of perfection which indi-
Gates success. That he has discover
ed motive power in certain alkalies
and acids, which has never been
brought into practical use for agrieult-
ural implements, there is no doubt.
Whether he can make it work mis-
machine horse over soft and uneven
ground seems to be the only point to
be tested. He appears to be very con-
fident himself that it will do so.
The machine does not go on wheels,
like an engine, but walks like Ghorse,
on four legs, which rise eight inches
and make forward move of eighteen,
at every revolution of centre shaft
which works them. The shaft is ten
feet long, the length of the machine
The legs are ten feet apart; fore and
aft, and sideWise five feet apart which
enables the machine to preserve its
balance on uneven ground. 1t is so
constructed that it will 90 up and
down heavy grade with the greatest
ease, and is calculated to walk and
draw on soft and titled land with more
ease than any team of horses. Itturns
round in its own length to any point
needed. AS to speed, it viii so at
any rate from three TO fifteen miles
per hour. The concern can be revers-
ed. 1t can be employed for all the
purposes that a team OF horses are
useful, such as ploughing, reaping or
drawing wagons, street ears and canal
boats. ~

King William, it is said, has offer
ed the Pope the nice little fortified
town of Fulda, in Hesse-C Cassie, as a
residence. If the Holy Father will
not make terms with King Victor
Emmanuel; If he will not remain in
Rome, Fulda would be as desirable a
home as any other. The town is well
fortified it is an ancient ecelesiasti-
cal seat, having been in times gone
by the residence of the prince bishops.
1t boasts of a fine cathedral and an
archiepiscopal palace. The inhabi-
tants are mostly Roman Catholic. 1t
is one of the strange features of these
strange times that the great champion
of the Protestant North should be the
most jealous defender Of the Pope.
