a RadieaI "Snlit.n

Charles Sumner who for ten years
has been Chairman of the Commit
tee on Foreign Relations IN the
United States Senate, has been re-
moved from that position on ae-
count of his opposition to President
Grant and his st. Domingo annex
alton scheme. This removal caus-
ed fearful excitement in the Radi-
cal ranks, and VIII no doubt prove
an entering wedge that viii widen
the breach already made in the Re
publican party. Already some OF
the most influential Radical papers
are denouncing Grant, and hosting
a Presidential ticket for 1872, in
opposition to him. The good work
goes b: avely on.

Female Education.

Female Education.
Why is there such d great differ
ence between the education Of boys
and girls? We often hear Of the
world-renowned Universities Of
Germany where great sages are en-
gagged in the instruction of young
gentlemen, but what great Univer-
sity has Germany for young ladies?
England can boast OF her Oxford
and Cambridge. Scotland her Edin-.
burg, where thousands Of boys
gather from different parts of the
world to listen to the instruction Of
great scholars, but what great IN
stitution of learning has England
or Scotland for the education Of
girls?
Time has woven immortal gar
lands around our Yales and Har-
Yards, where hundreds of Ameri-
cas- gallant sons gather annually TO
receive instruction from scores of
able professors, but what great en-
dowment has America for the edu-
cation Of her daughters? Our own
loved Tennessee has boosted Of her
institutions endowed for the educa-
ton of her sons, but what institu-
ton of learning has she ever en-
dowed for the benefit of her daugh-
tiers? Why this difFerence2 1t is
argued that girls have no need of
thorough education. 1t is for
the boys to have the advantage of
thorough mental training; it is for
the boys to have the benefit Of large
libraries and costly apparatus; it's
for the boys to have the aid Of able
instructors; it is for the boys to
take thorough course of study in
the ancient classics and higher
mathematics; but is for the girls,
''poor little things" to study little
French and learn to sweep the keys
of the piano! What eonsummate
injustice! Let the standard ofYo-
mans education be raised. Open
the entire field Of the sciences, elias
sizes and mathematics for her inyes-
tigation. Her influence upon SO
ciety demands that she receive the
very highest mental culture. She
was not intended for mere orna-
ment, but has a noble sphere to
fill. Her power is greater than that
of navies and armies. Though she
may not strike in freedoms cause,
nor mingle her voice in politics;
though she may not engage in TO
rensic debate, nor stand in the sa-
cred desk, with burning words to
call the sinner from his hayward
course, yet in secret she moves up
on the minds of great men and in
cites them to noble actions. Let
her mind then be trained to deep,
original thought, by a long, tho
rough course of training that she
may be prepared to fulfill the high
destiny for which she was created.
Educate her as she should be and
men will be greater and nobler, and
the world will rush on with a new
impetus in the great highway that
leads to prosperity and renown.

Giles College.


Under the able management of
Cart. w. r. GARRETT, this institu-
ton is becoming very prosperous.
Over sixty scholars now attend the
College and each week adds several
new ones. The military company
has been organized by the election
OF the following officers:
1st Lieut.. Willie NI'Kissac End,
Chas. Rogers; Sd, Robin Rodes;
lst Serst. Lewis Stanley; End, Jno.
/. Kenum; 81, Ed. Morris; 4th,
Porter Osborn; 9th, 10. Zucarella;
lst Cor. Pink May; 2nd, George
Woodring; Sd, Cal. AI'Kissack; 4th,
Willie Rogers.
The company viii receive its
arms in a few days. The bond re-
quired by law has been made and
forwarded to the Governor at Nash
vile. The uniform will be gray,
and consist OF jacket, pants and
cap. The suits for the large boys
will cost about $I2, and for the
small ones SIS. This military fea-
ture of the College will have a gooi
effect. II not only perfects the
the scholars in military discipline,
but it viii also furnish a healthy
physical exercise after their con
fnement in the school room. The
chemical apparatus has arrived and
the advantages OF the institution
are now second to none in the State.
We sincerely hope that the people
Of tais county viii support It liber

Russia and Prussia.

The New York Morning Post af-
firms that a secret treaty between
Russia and Prussia was concluded
about the time of the outbreak of
the war, and says that the follow
ing were among its provisions -
Russia was to intervene between
the bellige;ents in case the French
were successful, and should menace
Poland. In the event an Austrian
army should demonstrate upon the
Prussian frontier, Russia was to
eheekmate it by demonstration
upon the Austrian frontier, and in
case any European power should
combine with France, Russia was
to join Prussia.

A Female Academy.

=
Tuos. BARTIS in his will donated
$4,000 in bonds and $4,000 in cash
to the founding of a Female Aeade-
my at this place. These requests
were subject to this condition: the
interest on the $4,000 was alone to
be touched-the principal was to
remain intact. The $4,000 dona-
tion was free from conditions, so
FOR as its absolute conveyance was
concerned. Mr.. MARTIN, however,
stated in his will that the whole
fund should "be placed under the
fostering care of the NJ. E. Church
here" In accepting these hberj
requests, the Church appointed a
board of Trustees at this place,
consisting Of J. A. Sumpter, p. Fl.
Ezell, Jno. c. Brown, j. p. May, j.
A. Tinnon, A. Cox, W. I. Ballcn-
tine and Jno. T. Steele, who were
authorized to obtain subscriptions
enough to supply the deficit in the
cost of erecting a suitable building,
after including the annual interest
on Mr. MARTINS bequest of $4,000
and the absolute donation of So, OO0
The Trustees went to work at once.
1t will be remembered that the in
terest alone on the $4,000 beqnest
could be used, which would amount
to 81, 800 at per cent. for the first
year, to which add the $4,000 cash,
and the Trustees had a fund of
$4,000 to begin with. The actual
cost of a building of suitable di-
mansions would have been four
times this amount, but the Trustees
were willing to begin q building
worth say $4,000, which would
have served their purpose for the
present. To do even this they
would have to raise at least $4,000
by private subscription. They
made the attempt and have thus far
failed. Some 81, 500 was subscrib-
ed on DR.. SUNPTER's list, but the
othersubscriptions amounted to but
little. The Trustees, after giving
the whole project fair trial, have
decided that if they cannot raise
the requisite amount to erect a
suitable building by the 1st of May
next, they will release those who
have already subscribed and aban-
don the enterp Use, at least for the
present. We sincerely hope that
our people will not force them to
this alternative. Giles county, in
in point of wealth, population and
natural resources, ranks among the
foremost in the State; but she lacks
one great agency necessary to make
her the gerry first in Tennessee, and
that is first-class schools. County
interest, as we'll as county pride,
should stir up our people in this
matter, Let us have a female acad-
envy that will be source of pride
not only to our own people, but
those of the entire South. Let eve
~ man in the county contribute ac-
cording TO his means, and We are
sure that in the end the Investment
will remunerate them four-fOld.-
We could point to other counties in
She State whose Importance has
been largely enhanced by schools,
but we consider that the intelli-
gencc Of our people does not re-
quire any proofs as to their abso-
lutte necessity for good educational
institutions.
