Another Row.
We learn that the congregation who
were. engaged in worshirping -at-or near
Sulphur Springs Camp Ground. on Thurs
day last, were seriously disturbed BY a
number of persons who engaged in gen
eral fight. Pistols and other deadly wea-
pons were drawn. but no serious conse-
q~uences followed. except the annoyance
to the congregation. These things are
getting too common in this county and
especially in hat neighborhood, and un-
less the civil authorities take hold OF the
matter and bring the offenders to justice
respectable people viii be compelled to
abandon all ideas of attending Divine
Worship in that section, OF else take the
law in their own hands and protect them-
selves and families from this kind of an
noyance.

J-onesboro' Schools.

Jonesboro' Schools -
On Thursday last the Joresboro' Fee
male College, and the Holston Male In
~stitute, in this place. were opened for the
reception of students for the ensuing year.
The schools opened under the most favor
able auspices and the prospect for the
future is most catering. Professors Dun
gan and Prcsnell are both live teachers.
fully awake to the necessities and require
ments of the people among whom they
labor. and no W men in the county are
more deserving of patronage and encour-
agement than they. We trust the people
Of Jonesboro' will not forget that they
too owe a duty to the cause Of education
that they nave no right to neglect. The
number of people who send their children
regularIy TO school but who pay no further
attention to the matter except to occasion-
ally find fault is altogether too large. Let
| the parents visit the schools at regular
periods and see for themselves how the
education of their children is being con-
Quoted, and if they have any suggestions
to make, our word for it, they will be
kindly and thankfully received and care-
fully considered by the teachers.

, EDUCATIONAL DOCUMENTS.

Gen. John Eaton, jr., U. s. Commits
sioner of Education. has kindly favored
this Office with a copy of his report for the
year 1871, for which he has our thanks.
The report is a valuable one, in some
RESPECTS the ablcst one that commissioner
Eaton has sent out. We find in it 700
pages, including statistical tables, filed
with important information.
The Bureau of Education, with Gen.
Eaton at its head, is doing a great work
to prepare the way for universal educa-
ton. We hope it will be circulated ex-
tensively, in the South especially.

ITs GLORY DEPARTED.-The rapid
rise and ~developemcnt of the petroleum
business have been unprecedented. The
introduction of this new illuminating ma
terial seems to have gradually superseded
the use of whale oil. till the whaling BUSH
ness has been g~reatnly affected. Nantucket,
which once had a fleet of $50 whalers and
80 candle and oil establishments, making
it a prosperous and busy place of 12.00e
inhabitants, has sold its last whaling YES
sci. and its population is reduced to A.

m MONEY.

The law requires the Chairman OF the
County Court to settle with the tax Col
hector on the last day of each month. and,
also an apportionment of the money
In the various districts. See
school law. 1t is all important that the
law be complied with as far as practical.
The success of the schools for the present
year depends in a great measure upon the
prompt ap~portionment Of the money.
We trust the Chairman Of the Court will
look after this matter.

THE LAW TO BE ENFORCED The

to give bonds of $500, to pay for all dam
age lone by the poison they sell. went into
operation July 1. The better class of the
community throughout the State are de-
termined that it shall be enforced. Gov.
Pslmer said at a public meeting at Spring
field that he signed the law because he
thought it a most excellent law. and be-
lieyed that every man who respects pub
lie order would so regard it after it had
had a fair trial.

Tate Springs.

This noted watering place is still the
scene Of activity. 1t is the last evening
of summer. Many of the Southern visi-
tors are getting impatient to see their
homes again, and are preparing to make
their exodus. The heavy loaded hacks
and baggage wagons that leave every morn
ing for the Railroad, remind us of the
closing of a big camp>meeting ; but when
the stages return in the evening they
bring others to take the places of those
who have left. and for several weeks the
proprretors will no doubt have as many
guests as they can comfortably accommo-
date.
Good health is the primary considera-
ton in the enjoyment of life. Money
fails to buy it, but these health restoring
waters will give it IN many instances, as
hundreds scattered over the Southern
States are willing to testify. AT least five
hundred persons nave visited these Springs
this Summer and have been benefited.
Invalids have been here from every South
ern State, and, also, from several of the
Northern States. We have never seen so
healthy looking invalids as those who have
been using the water for sometime,
Soutberners who have visited the water
ing places IN Virginia recommend this as
being preferable to them all. The pro-
perry is certainly very valuable.

teresting discussion on the transactions Of
Secretary Boutwell, and his syndicate in
negotiating the new loan, the democratic
members of the ways and means submit
ting the views of the minority in the shape
OF speeches instead of report, 1t was in
timated very strongly from the republican
side, that if the course Of the secretary was
not approved by the house, or if it was de-
clared by the house that he had violated the
law for refunding the debt, he would no,
proceed under the present Law to refund the
remaining thirteen millions of the bonded
debt. The minority charged, and proved
very successfully, two points: First, that
the public debt, in express violation OF the
loan law, wss increased, for three months
or more, $l35, 100000; end, second, that the
syndicate and its agents poeketed thres
