EDITORS. VoTER:-Having closed
my School to-day, l wish to make a
short Report, and a few remarks. My
School was in Sub District No. !, Clay
Township, known as the lola School
House-Mf. John Gordon, Director
four months term. All the common
branches were taught. Average daily
attendance "a. Ten pupils came every
day--some a mile and a half-and
did not miss single recitation.
Twenty came from seventy to seventy
nine days each. If this has been
beaten in this County the past winter
! should like to know where. My
first class completely mastered Rays
"a and 30 Arithmetics, commencing
at the beginning, and made good pro-
eress in Grammar and U. s. History.
Ail learned rapidly. The pupils were
punctual, orderly, polite, industrious
and obedient. Mode of government:
moral suasion."
In fact, 1t was the best School I have
mad in the course of twenty-five years
pedagogueing." Director and pa
rents visited the School frequently,
and thereby gave practical demon
Sration that. where a teacher and
pupils have the confidence and cO-op-
ration Of the patrons, almost incredi-
'0le proficiency can be made. Teach
eFs are too frequently charged with
'@iures, when the truth is, it is the
parents that are the failures.
hope this will elicit other Reports.

Horace Greeley on the Kn-klux and
Carpet BuSgerrS South.

In Il speech at his reception in New
York, when he returned from his South
crn and Western tour, among other
things, Horace Greeley said;
There are Ku-Hlux down South, but
they didn't come up to him and tell him
so. He spoke with severity of the acts
Of the Ku-klux, and held that the Gov
eminent is bound to enforce laws for
their cX;irpation. But, continued MIR.

rIous with theirs, and u great deal more
detrimental to the fame and character
Of the Republican party. | allldo to
what arc known AZ the "!hicying carpet
baggcrs." Applause. Fcllow-Citizens
do not mistake me. All the Northern
men in the South are not thieves. The
larger part of them are honest and good
men, some Of whom stay there at the
peril Of their lives, because they believe
it to be their duty. r x
Well, gentlemen, the thieying carpet
blggers are u mournful fact: they do
exist there, and lave seen them. They
are fellows who crawled down South i'll
the track Of our armies, generally II very
safe distance in the rear; some Of them
on suffers wagons; some bearing cotton
permits; some Of them looking sharply
to see what may turn up, and they TO
main there. They at once ingratiated
themselves with the blacks, simple, cred
uious, ignorcnt men, very glad to wei
rome and to follow any whites who pro-
tossed tobe the champions oftlieir rights.
Some Of these got elected Senators, OH
crs Representatives, some Shcrifis, some
ia lgcs, and 80 on. And there they
staad, right in the pablo eye, stealing
aud plundering, many Of them with both
arms around negroes, and their hands
i'll their rear pockets, seeing if they can
not pick u paltry dollar out Of them and
the public looks at them, does not re-
gard the honest Northern men, but calls
every "corper-bagger' a thief, which is
not the truth by a good deal. But these
fellows zmany Of them long-faced and
with eyes rolled up, arc greatly concern
cd for the education of tho blacks and
for the salvation of their souls. "Let
us pray, they say. But they spell pray
with m Sc" and, thus spelled, they obey
the divine injunction to spray without
ceasins." l't
These fellows got into the Legislature;
they went TO issuing State bonds; they
pretended to use them in aid Of railroads
and other improvements But they
were not made, and the bonds stuck in
the issuers' pockets. That is the pity
of it. Ii the Ku-Klux, he said, should
choose to catch a hundred or two of these
thieves, place them tenderly across rails,
and bear them quietly and pcaceably
across the Ohio, | should Of course con
denim the act, as | condemn all violence.

THE ENTERPRISE.
Swcctwater, Thursday, June q, 1871.
death Of Hon. G. !. NalhndIgham.


This distinguished political leader
while illustrating to a fellow counsel in
"a murder ease, how the dead man might
have shot himself, accidentally discharg-
cd a pistol, the ball taking effect in the
bowels, This we learn from a dispatch
dated at Lebanon, Ohio, June 18th.
He breathed his last ON Saturday the
18th of this instant, at Is minutes be
fore 10 o'clock, n. IN.
Mr.. Vallandigham was born in Ohio,
in 1892, and became prominently iden-
tilted with the politics Of his native State
when quite n young man and shortly
after his admission to the bar. Heserv-
cd in the Thirty-ffth, Thirty-sixth and
Thirty-seycnth Congress, where he was
regarded as one of the ablest members,
and took II leading part in the eventful
legislation which Immediately preceded
the war. His determined and publicly
declared opposition to the Republican
policy Of coercion caused his Danish
ment to the Conipderacy, whence he
went by sea to Canada. From the close
of the war until the National Conyen-
ton of 1868, he took no active part in
politics. lie was denounced by the Rad
ical press as the very head and front OF
the anti-war Democracy or Cooper
heads" but his Dayton resolutions will
immortalizc and the country will. -vindi-
cute him. The advance movement which
he inungurated but a few weeks ago has
already swept through the length and
breadth Of the land, and is destined, we
trust. 10 transfer the administration OF
public affairs to honest, capable, repre-
sentative hands. Though he did not
survive to see the grand result, his deeds
will live utter him. In the very prime
of IL useful and honorable manhood
when his professional and political "a
rccr seemed brightest and his future full
Of promise, when the hopes Of the citi-
zen, Of the patriot and the statesman
were about to be rewarded with the re,
alization of restored nationality and the
permanency Of American constitutional
liberty, to which his later political life
has been SO earnestly dovOtcd-at 4
time when the whole country was clec,
trifed with the practical craftsmanship
of the new departure in IL political af,
fairs in which he had himself $ o boldly
taken the initiative, his spirit was called
to take its departure to a happier and
better world, bcqueathinS to his coun.
try the legacy Of as bright Il page as will

Communicated.

EDITOR ENTERPRIsE:-l observe in your
issue Of the 9Th inst, the subject of con
.structing q narrow guage Rail Road to
Tellieo Plains Iron works, or to the foot
of the mountain in the direction OF Muir
ply, n. q. via Madisonville.
After thinking ON the sLbject-of what
a great advantage such an improvement
would be to Sweeetwater, and in fact to
II large portion of Monroe County as
well rs to N. c., and in view Of the con-
dition of the roads at the above named
points, which are almost impossible du-
ring tho winter months,-the subject of
securing the valuable trade Of the coun-
try through which the contemplated
road would pass, M we'll us affording fa-
%ciities for u n, q. neighbors, 1 think
both Sweetwater and Madisonville should
feel a deep interest in it, as well as the
citizens generally along the line who are
now deprived Of Rail Road communica-
ton.
In this enlightened age, it would be
the work Of folly to enter upon u dis
cussion of the advantages OF Railways.
That they stimulate industry, and aspir-
it of enterprise-that they increase the
value of our lands by opening up the
markets Of the world-increase popula-
ton and invite immigration-adds vast
~ to Our domestic comforts, and begets
in the community a higher order of in
telligence, than exists where the inhaLi-
tants are isolated from the active bust
ness world, is evident.
The cost OF a narrow guage Rail Road
is trihing compared to those oftho usual
width. They answer every purpose, es-
pecially as feeders to the main arteries
if may SO express (which are nee
essarily o ponderous as they extend
their arms to greater length.
This subject should be kept before the
people. Let our merchants and farm
ers post themselves us to the practical
bihty of the enterprise, as also its feast,
bility, and act i'll accordance with theil
matured judgment.
The writer trusts that some one more
competent than himself will elaborate
this subject, and lay it before the people
"a hint to the wise is sufficient"
