The College Department and Acad-
envy of the University of Nashville will
begin on the 4th OF September next,
and the Law Department will open on
the 18th of October. Gen. i. X. Smith,
distinguished leader of the Confeder-
ate armies in the late war, and man of
great abilities and learning, is the Chan
cellor, and will be assisted by an able
corps of teachers. A number of young
men from this vicinity attended the
University at its last session, and they
show every evidence of having been
greatly profited. The University of
Nashville is good school for advanced
ycholars, and we recommend it to our
SOun0 men.

Early Vegetables.

It is not every family that owns a
good hot bed but this need not de-
ter them from trying to produce q
few early vegetables. A few boxes
or flower pots, filled with fine earth,
may be placed in window, and
answer the purpose OF hot bed.
Tomatoes, cabbages, peppers, and
similar plants, may be started in q
warm room, and by transplanting
once or twice before the time arrives
for setting out, they will be several
weeks in advance of those grown in
the garden. Avoid tho too common
mistake of sowing the seed too
thickly, thereby crowding the plants
and causing eAem to grow tall and
slender. A half dozen good, stocky
plants will give more fruit and much
earlier than several dozen poor,
spindling, sickly ones. A small pot,
six inches in diameter, is largo
enough to start two or three dozen
plants OF one sort, and when they
are two or three inches high, trans
plant into boxes or large pots, giving
each plant room to grow. If they
grow too tall and slender, pinch off
tho upper portion of the stem, and
this will cause them to grow stocky.
Always keep tho plants where they
will receive the direct rays OF the
sun during the greater part of the
day. With but little care and tri-
fling expense, every family can raise
all the early vegetable plants re-
quired.-Rur0I Neto Yorker.

A Mltrailleuse on a Jackass

1t was in contemplation at one
time to mount mitrailleuses on the
backs of Oamels, and work them in
that novel position. But camels in
England are not readily obtainable,
and the Ordnance Committee there,
fore selected one Of those faded old
asses which form so common o fea-
ture in the landscape at Erie and
Woolwich. The animal quietly per-
mitted itself to be used in the service
of science till tho critical moment.
Tho weapon on his back had been
loaded and pointed at the target,
when it suddenly occurred to one Of
the committee that the lanyard
might disturb the aim. 1t was there.
tore suggested that the discharge
should be effected with lighted
fuse. But the unpleasant fizz Of the
latter appliance was too much oven
for tho solidity of a donkey. The
poor animal no sooner hoard the
unusual sound, than he sent up his
heels, and turning completely around,
pointed tho mitraiileuso among the
members of tho committee. The
panic which followed among that
dignificd body can botter be imagin-
cd than described, but fortunately
everybody got out of harms way,
and whom tho discharge took place

culated journal in the South, we
print without comment-we do not
see that it needs any-simply to
show tho generous and chivairic dis
position Of our oppressed Southern

"We appeal to those of our friends
who have any connection whatever
with secret organizations to remain
perfectly quiet and orderly for the
present, at any rate. Let there be
no suspicion of disorder or lawlesness.
Let there be no parading of disguised
men, no stopping of innocent men
and forcing them to dance. This is
all child's play and foolishness. Re-
member that the strength and power
OF any secret organization rests in
the attribute of mystery and hidden
force, and in the fact that upon tho
thousand hills ofour country legion
of brave hearts that are throbbing
quietly can be called together by q
tiny signal, and when the work is
done can melt away into shadowy
nothing. Every time you act you
weaken your strength.
Tho eyes Of the continent are upon
us. A Ealf dozen murders In Cher0-

Wicked, tho famous German war

amongst them seeing q bevy of tam

a dead horse like pack of wolves,
aud, tearing it with all sorts of in
