the interest on the public debt and mod

VIRGINIA MILITARY INSTITUTE.


Tennessee has so large an interest in
the Virginia Military Institute that a
brief account of its distinct character
may not be unacceptable to your read
ers.
This is a State institution, founded
and supported by the State of Virginia.
1t was in this school that Stonewall
Jackson was a Professor for fourteen
years, and from which he went in COM
LaId of the CORPS of cadets in April,
1861, to electrify the world with his
heroic virtues and military genius. Here
were educated that noble army of
martyrs who fell during our civil wal,
among whom were Generals ROdes,
Garland, the two Pattons, the two
Aliens, and one hppdred and fifty
others, and here were trained those
skilled soldiers, who commanded regi-
ments, brigades and divisions of the
Confederate army.
Tennessee has been a large patron of
the institution since the war. Among
its most distinguished Tennessee gradu-
ates may be named Captain Patrick
Henry and Clay Stacker, Of GAINESVILLE;
Colonel Galloway, Of Fayette; General
Humes, Of Memphis; Il. Mosby, J..
hOPsOHL 80 Aootnl " NAiAaiuSuAl
and 7. Taylor.
The present corps Of cadets embraces
from Tennessee the following: B. K.
Brown, A. w. Jones, Il. Williamson,
]. Winston, 7. Graves, G.. c. Taylor, G..
T. Vance, John Waters, A. d. Wilcox,
]. S. Barrow, w. S. Cooke, P. Mitchell
and A. w. Rant, all of whom have just
passed TIER examinations, the first four
being now members of the senior class,
which graduates next June. The school
has always been kept full, numbering
from three hundred to three hundred and
fifty cadets, and has among its faculty
gentlemen who are well known as schol-
ars and men of genius. Commodore
Maury and Captain j. NJ. Brooke, for
merry Of the United States navy, hold
chairs in the Virginia Military Institute.

ALCORN n ANIEs.

Mack, who now writes for the st.
Louis Democrat, referring to the two
United States Senators from Mississippi,
saws that Ames, better known TO fame
as Ben. Buffers sOn-in-law than as a
Senator of the United States, attacked
the personal character of his colleague,
Alcorn, with all the forcible f~eebleness
which he is capable. He accused him Of
personal dishonesty, corruption, fraud
and uncharitableness, and left him
weltering in his oral gore, so to speak.
Aleorn could do nothingless than defend
himself from the attacks of the distin-
guisbed son-in-law. He event foI" the
son-fnlaw as aforesaid, on Tuesday
morning. and, unless nay knowledge of
the English language is greatly deficient,
he left the impression that, according to
his Judgment, the son-fn-law vas a liar
IN particular, and a fraud in general.
de did not use Mr.. Greeley's expressive
noun but he said that his colleague had
been guilty Of saving sithat which he
Knew was not true.U In olden times
this would have provoked a fight: now
II only results in a hlutpal drink and a
friendly greeting. A statesman viii i0ht
but a son-in-law is a meek and dove1ike
creature, who finds earth 80 nleasant

sons-in-lGw win ever remain 4 -distant

cations made By the Mississippi Sem.
tors, each against the other. THE som
in-law is, according to Mr.. Alcorn. a
earpet-bagger and a fraud, whom the
people Of Mississippi did not elect, and
who has no interests in common with
the constituency which he assumes to
represent; and Mr.. Aleorn is, according

RADICALrsm VS.. DEMoCRACY.


When honest men were masters OF
Mississippi there were in the State nine
judicial districts, in which the Judges
were also Chanceilors. These officers,
the best and most learned lawyers Of the
Commonwealth, Ellet, Harris, FoOte,
Hamm, Jarnagin, etc, were paid two
thousand five hundred dollars each per
aRRum. There were nine Attorneys
General, paid each one thousand five
hundred dollars and perquisites, derived
wholly from the purses Of criminals.
Such was the Judicial system Of Missis-
sippi when Radicalism seized the reins
Of power, dethroning Democracy. There
are now within the confines of Missis-
sippi, stripped Of more than half its
wealth, fifteen Circuit Judges, each hav-
ing a salary Of three thousand five hum
dred dollars, and fifteen Attorneys-Gen-
eral, each paid two thousand five hun
dred dollars and perquisites; and super
added 10 these, there are thirty-two
Chancellors at three thousand five hun
dred dollars per head, the eOstliest lot Of
scrub cattle, with rare exceptions, ever
installed in civil OF even military Office.
The excess of the sum Of Judicial sala-
ries annually paid under the reign Of
Radical plunderers yer that expended
when Democracy was supreme is two
hundred and fifty thousand dollars. II
such a condition Of things may be borne,
il Is well to dissolve the Democratic
party, or that party which opposes Rad
icalism. If a better name, or n more
significant Of the virtues Of Democracy
may be found, and empty preiudices
against a word may be appeased, then
let those who choose adopt the new mar
tisan nomenclature, and if thieves NAV
be expelled from Office in Mississippi,
and the supremacy of honest men per-
petnated in Tennessee, there will be
none to complain.

AT THE corner of Avery and South

by Mr.. Thompson, Rev. Phillips and
Blewis. The two first white, the latter
eolored. The gist of Barbour's speech
was that Curry must be elected (sinee
Barbour's only chance of getting to Con-
gress consists in having Curry to count
the votes and manage the elections in
this county,. Apologies were made for
Curry's little dodge, by which he pro-
poses to pull the wool over the eyes of a
innocent people on Front street. He
is only a no-party mar in the daytime.
AT night and in the Loyal Leagues he is

when he supported BrownlOw, as when
be threw his arms about that buzzard
sometimes called the Bald Eagle of the

THE RIVER RAILROAD.
What the People Of Dyersburg Have
Done for it-They are Elated.


DVERsBuRG, TENN, July G, 1872.
EDITORS APPEAL-The proposition OF
subscribing fifty thousand-dollars to the
capital stock of the Paducah and Mem
phis railroad was submitted to the vo-
tiers Of the town of D%yersburg to-day
Saturday, and resulted in an almost
unanimous vote for the subscription.
The vote stood: For subscription l26,
against 2. One of the negative votes
was cast by mistake, leaving, in reality,
but one vote against the proposition.
In addition to this subscription Of fifty
thousand dollars by the corporation,
fifty thousand dollars have been raised
by private subscription, making a total
of one hundred thousand dollars sub
scribed to the Memphis railroad by Dy-
ersburg and vicinity.
In the vote to-day the negroes took
little interest, and few were at the polls,
Nor was the vote fully pOlled. 1t was
not thought there would be one vote
against the subscription, and as a conse-
quence little interest was taken in the
result.
Engineer Meigs has been here several
days, and the road and depot have been
located. Our people are elated with
their prospects, and believe that old
Dyer will enjoy communion with the
outer world in less time than a year.
Yours, etc. MOHAWK.
