To the Chattanooga Times, of the 9th
we are indebted for the following p~articu-
lars of the arrest of j. c. Stanton in that
place;
Yesterday Mr.. John G.. Goode, an Off
cial of the State of Alabama, arrived in
this city armed with an order from Gov
ernor Brown, directing the Sheriff to arrest
and deliver to him John C. Stanton, for
whom requisition had been legally made
upon him by Governor Lindsay.
I'm the absence of the Sheriff and both
his deputies the arrest was made by Mar
shall Allison and Mr.. Stanton was deliv-
cred by him into the custody of Mr.. Goode.
"Mr. Stanton, acting under the advice
of bis counsel, submitted quietly to the
arrest and started for Montgomery last
night in company with Dir. Goode.
"The warrant did not state the charges,
but we presume that it was issued under
an Indictment found against Mr.. Stanton
by the Grand Jury of Montgomery for OBJ
tanning bonds under false pretenses, allud-
ing to the over issue of $1,000 600. of en-.
dorsed bonds obtained from Governor
Smith. At least it was intimated to US
some time ago that some such action
would be taken.
s.Mr. Stanton states that he can prove
his innocence, as those bonds, he says,
were sent direct to New York and did not
pass through his hands.
I'VE suppose, however, as a matter of
course, that the Grand Jury found similar
indictments against all of Mr.. Stanton's
associates in the management of the Ala
bama aud Chattanooga Railroad. We
should not be surprised to see in the tele-
graphic news from New York. tomorrow,
that ID. n. Stanton and other Directors
have been arrested under requisition from
the Governor of Alabama upon the same
charge.

OUR SCHOOLS.

Weare, perhaps, not behind any coun-
ty in this end of the State, in the number
and character of our schools. Although
the county system has never been fully
adopted, nevertheless anumbcr of good
schools are in operation.
Boon's Creek has an excellent school,
and the one at Cherokee is doing a good
work. Mays School House in the 9Th
Civil District has been enlarged and the
money raised to make it comfortable
The school is large and interesting.
Washington College has made consider
able progress during the year and prom
ises even greater in the future. The
number of pupils is increasing from dav
to day.
Limestone has a good school starting
up. Three teachers are employed al
ready. One hundred pupils are expected
to be in attendance. The people in. thi.
section are alive on the subject of educa-
ton.
The School at Philadelphia in the LIST
Civil District opened out prosperouslY
early in the fall. The school house is an
honor to any neighborhood. 1t is commo-
dious, neat and we'll ceiled. An energet-
ic young man is at the head of the school.
Flag Pond Seminary is in a prosperous
condition. The progress that education
has made in this mountain region is tru-
ly wonderful. Two years age there was
no school house, but now more than One
Hundred pupils occupy a large frame
school building that wild credit to any
district.
Martins Creek in the 9Th Civil District
has a new house just about Completed
1t is a log house of good size and very
we'll arranged. The school numbers
near One Hundred pupils. At this place,
great improvement is going on in school
matters. The people are determined on
having a school. They are starting out
prosperously.
johnson City has a good school in oper-
alton. We cannot speak definitely as to
the numbers IN attendance. Two teach
ers are employed.
Jonesboro Schools are in a prosperous
condition. In the Female department
Que Hundred and twenty pupils have
been enrolled. Four teachers are cngag-
ed in the school beside the music teacher,
Prof. Dillworth.
In the Male department, three teachers
including the Principal, Prof. DUNCAN,
are engaged. The enrolment is some
thing near One Hundred. The school is
in excellent condition.
The Colored School is large. The
teacher, j. r. Judson is a man of ouI
work. He is a capital teacher and adj.
vances the colored pupils rapidly.
While we rejoice at the success Of these
7 schools, there are hundreds of children in
county without any of these advantages
Many school houses stand closed for want
of money. A small school fund at this
time would greatly stimulate the people
We need a school system first, last and al
the time.

Death efun Eminent Scientist.

Gable dispatches announce the death OF
the eminent British scientist, Sir Roderick
|. Murchison, President of the British
Geological and Geographical Societies.
He died in London last Sunday at the adj
vanced age of 20. He served with Well
ington in Spain and Portugal in the army
of the Peninsula. Subsequent to that pc
riod at the age of thirty he entered on the
absorbing study of chemistry and geology,
aud from that time forward he pursued
the path thus entered upon with the warm
est enthusiasm. In 1881 he applied Hun
self to a systematic examination OF the
older sedimentary deposits in England
and Wales, succeeding, after seven years
labor, in establishing what he termed the
S%llurian System, compromising a sue
cession of strata previously unknown.
This system, deriving its name from its oc-
cupying those counties which formed the
ancient Kingdom of Silures, is divided
into the Upper, consisting of Ludlow and
Wenlock rocks, and the Lower of Caradoc
ana Llandilo rocks. Mr.. Murchison
traced the extension of the Silurian Sys-
tenn and all the other Paleozoic rocks to
Norway and Sweden, as also that of Euro
pean Russia. In 1916 he was knighted
for his distinguished services in the cause
of science. During his life he published
over I2O memoirs of the transactions of
various scientific bodies. He was at the
time of his death a Fellow of the Royal
Society. a member of the Academies OF
St. Petersburg, Berlin. Copenhagen Brus-
sells, Stockholm and Turin. He was a
correspondent of the French Institute. a
Trustee of the British Museum, the Hun
terian Museum, and the British Associa.

Distressing.

Peter Snapp, an old colored man liv-
ing on the farm of II. NJ. Chase. i'll the
2nd civil district in this county, met
death in a very unexpected way on last
Wednesday night. He was hunting the
Opossom. Finding one on a large per-
simmon tree some thirty feet from the
ground. he made preparation to ascend
the tree in pursuit of the Opossom. He
laid his axe down on the ground and then
his walking zane on the axe-hapdle max
ing a cross and placing his hat in one of
the crosses and his hunters horn in the
other "a superstitious custom Of his he as
eended the tree. but just as he was in the
act Of securing his game, the limb gave
way and the poor man was hurled head
long to the earth. His head striking a
rock was crushed and both legs were brok-
en-.
His little son who was with him. by his
cries. brought the neighbors to the rescue.
They found the poor man crushed 10
pieces. The limbs of the tree was still in
his hands. from which it Is supposed he
never breatbed after the fall. The Opos-
som was found dead by the side of the
mangled corpse.
