Cadets ri Work.


Yesterday afternoon the manual labor scheme
was put in operation at the University. A
wagon load of picks, shovels and wheel-bar-
rows having been procured, squad was sent
out accompanied by the President and PROBES
sors, who laid the example by pitching in right
heartily. Some of the Professors showed that
they could skilfully WELD pick as we'll as teach
Greek, Latin and Mathematics.
A squad of cadets viii be detailed under one
of the company officers each day in the week to
labor short time at planting out shade trees,
and otherwise improving the college grounds.
Regular wages will be paid for the work, and
any student desiring to work more than the al
lotted time will be paid accordingly. This is q
new feature IN the college exercises, and the
cadets take to it with becoming zeal
After April 10Th board can be had at the Uni
versity boarding house at two dollars per week.
From this it will be seen that the facilities for
young men with small means to obtain an edu-
cation here are most excellent

Col. G. N. McGhee, President of the Knox
vile and Kentucky Railroad, and Maj. Thos.
O Conner, President of the Knoxville and
Charleston Railroad, returned yesterday from
Nashville, where they have been in attendance
upon the Chancery Court in which the import
ant litigation between the State and the default
ing railroads is pending. From them we learn
some facts concerning their respective roads of
general interest
THE KNOXVILLE AND KENTUCKY ROAD.
The claim the State held against this corpora
ton amounted in round numbers to So, SOC, COO.
By the compromise agreed upon between the
road and the Attorneys for the State, the latter
releases all liens and claims of every kind upon
the road by the Company paying $692o00 in
the bonds of the State. The amount as agreed
upon after our special telegram of last
Friday, exceeded the sum therein given some
500, 900 This sum, as State bonds can now be
bought, relieves the Company of a debt of in
fact equal to tt0o millions of dollars. The road
is now encountered only with its floating debt
and tho stock of Knoxville, Knox county, An
derson county and individual stockholders, and
ought to sell for sum sufficient to pay very
fair proportion of this stock. The Board of
Directors will meet on the 9th instant, when
the exact condition of affairs will be better
known, and the probable future of the road de-
termined
Col. McGhee feels greatly encouraged and
thinks there is now no doubt but that it will be
bought by parties who will complete it soon and
give US our long coveted northern connection.
KNOXVILLE AND CHARLESTON ROAD.
Thereport of the condition of this road as We
gather it from President O'Conner, is equally
encouraging for the early completion of the
road. The claim of the State against the COM
pany amounted to $4,000. The road is re-
lieved of this incum brancs by paying the State
$509, 600 in State bonds. The actual cost of the
road as it stands, in dollars, was S6lo,000
While in Nashville, President O'Conner re-
ceived advices from South Carolina that the
Blue Ridge and Greenvile roads had conSoli-
dated. They have IA miles of road built and
in running order. The gap from Maryville to
the South Carolina end is about $50 miles. |
Work on this unfinished portion is to be pushed |
ut once. Several prominent gentlemen con-
nected with the Blue Ridge road will be here
next week to examine our end of the work, and |
it is expected it will soon be under contract.
We printed some time ago paragraph to tbs |
effect that the South Carolina Legislature had |
repealed tbs act authorizing the State to endorse
for the company to the extent of four millions. |
This was a mistake. The endorsement still |
stands, and the Legislature has taken such &C
ion about further loaning its credit as to en-
nance its bonds materially. Hereafter no furth-
II loan or aid to railroads can be given save by |
) three-fourths vote of the people This legis-
alton aids the financial operations of the Blue
sidge company very much. The early COM
,letion of this road now seems near, and We
merely hope it may soon come

of laudsnum. DR.. Paxton was called on in time
