n9 Mr.. Joseph Walker, of Charleston, died
at Aiken on Tuesday, 10Th of December, in the
5Sth year of his age. Mr.. Walker was widely
known to the citizens of this and adjoining
States, and was most highly respected for his
uprightness and strict business integrity. We
have been personally acquainted with Mr..
Walker for many years, and in our numerous
business transactions with him, always found
him the genial, pleasant gentleman and atten-
tive to the wishes and interests of his numerous
customers. His death will be deeply lamented
by the newspaper fraternity throughout the
South.

pie of the South have permanently established
themselves as citizens of Sewanee. At the
station, half mile from the University, quite
village of artizans' shops and stores has
sprung up, so that Sewanee is almost little
world in itself The Trustees only grant leases,
so that the entire domain may be their own.
Evil and vicious persons are thus prevented
from settling and contaminating the moral
character of the students. The vacation is
given in the winter-thus enabling the students
to to spend the Christmas holidays at home. The
delightful summer climate enables the autori-h
ties to continue the scholastic duties during the
summer months, and by many this is considered
quite an important consideration, since they
may then remove their SONS from the miasmat-
ic influences of Southern latitudes during the
hot months.
sewanee is reached by the Nashville & Chat.
tanooga Railroad, as far as Cowan station, and
at that point mountain railauay begins its as
cent-reaching the University at distance Of
about miles. The distance from Nashville is
about 100 miles, and from Chattanooga is 81
miles.
Thus, Mr.. Editor, have as briefly as possible
sketched the origin, locality and history of the
| University of the South-taking my notes from
the University Records. AS its name implies
it is not restricted to one or few States, but tt
the whole South I; and from the numerous ad'
vantages it possesses, and the great moral in.
fuence it weds, think all will agree with
me in saying that it is destined to become
central fount Of learning for our loved South
ard which will be grand developer Of South
ern mind and talent.

rhe Impeachment of Scott and Parker.


The last issue of this paper contained the
initiatory proceedings of an effort to impeach
Gov Scott and Treasurer Parker for high
crimes and misdemeanors. The movement ab-
sorbed the attention of the House of Repre-
.sentatiyes from the 18th to the 22nd OF Decem-
ber inclusive, when. final vote was reached
and the Legislature adjourned for the holidays.
The majority of our readers are probably ac-
quainted with the fact that the impeachment
movement was failure. Nevertheless, as a
bit Of history in these curious times, it is our
duty to chronicle briefly the result
After the House had been occupied four days
in considering the resolutions of impeachment,
Gov. Scott attempted flank movement on
Friday, the day agreed upon to take recess,
by ordering an extra session of the Legislature
to convene the next day. In the meantime,
his satellites were busy working upon the MEM
bers, and it is asserted that 100000 was spent
in buying votes to defeat the impeachers and
save the representatives of the Ring from ever
lasting disgrace iat the hands of Republican
members. II It is further alleged that warrants
were Issued for more than fifty members, who
are doubtless guilty Of bribery and corruption,
to be served in the event of the filthy lucre
falling to produce the desired effect. On the
other hand, It was desirable that an adjourn
nent should take place at the hour agreed up
on, as many members had already left for'their
homes. When the debate was resumed on Fri
day morning, message was received from the
Governor, enclosing the proclamation calling
upon the members of the General Assembly.to
convene in extraordinary session on Saturday.
Whipper had the floor, and when the reading
of these documents was completed, he attempt
ed to resume the debate, but was interrupted by
one of Scott's minions, who rose to privileged
question, claiming the right to move suspen-
sion of the debate, and ordering vote upon
the resolution of impeachment The Speaker
decided the motion in order, which virtually
soiuelched the impeachment business, as the
bare majority of thin House were thus ena-
bled to take the floor from Whipper and defeat
the postponement until after recess. Upon a
motion to defer the, consideration of the reso-
luton until the 9th of January, the previous
question was brought into requisition, and the
House voted to strike out the resolving clause
BY IS to so. And thus ended the impeachment
business for, the present, but we understand
that another effort is likely be made upon
the re assembling of the Legislature this week
In another place, we give the debate that en-
sued after the regular conflict. Bowen, Whip
per and other Republicans made a gallant fight
against the Ring, but they were overpowered
BY the peculiar tactics Of those gentry, skilled
in the use of the almighty dollar" The Dem
ocrats remained silent during the entire pro-
ceedings preferring to assist by their votes, and
allow the, main battle to be fought in the Re
publican. camp exclusively. .!-s.,,atf.,i - p

NINETY AND ACCRUED INTEREST

This road is the western link in tho new AIR LINE
from Buffalo to Chicago and runs from the Detroit river
to Chicago in nearly straight line.
The road is a part of the same line as the Canada
Southern and is being built by the men VIZ Mil
ton COPYRIGHT, John Tracy David Bows, William L.
Scott, Henry Farnam R. A Forsyth Jno NJ. Burke, NJ.
L. Sykes Jr., all directors either in the Chicago and
Northwest or the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific
Geo Opdyke Of the Midland Road; Sidney Dillon, Dan
Eel Drew, John Ross, David Stewart, Samuel ]. Tiden
Kenyon Cox, and other prominent railroad men.
The road, like the Canada Southern will have steel
rails $50 pounds to the Yard throughout; is practically
straight and levels much shorter, and can be with
speed safety than any other road connecting
Buffalo and Chicago. Twenty-Five miles are finished
and running; IS miles far advanced TO be
finished by Jan. and the entire road will be completed
during the ensuing year. Steel rails and sfor onehaf
the entire road have already been purchased.
The builders of the road control enough of its Chicago
feeders to obtain for it profitable business from the
start, having projected the line to accommodate exist
ing business and having the necessity for another
trunk line between Chicago and the Atlantic seaboard
located expressly with the view OF obtaining the cheap
est transportation practicable,
The branch lines will make tho shortest connection
between Chicago and Toledo and Chicago and Detroit 5
as well as between all these points and Buffalo.
The Canada southern Bonds, in every particular like
these eagerly TAKEN the last of them weeks
ago, by the best class ofnvestors and the
ket shorter time than any other railroad loan of like
amount for years past The proceeds of these bonds will
complete the entire line, and we recommend them with
the same confidence did the Canada Southern,
and regard them as in every way choice security.
