TRIBUTE OF RESPECT.

NEwCOMB-In memory of J. W. V. NEW.
COMB, who died in this city, of yellow fever
October p, 1873. A native of England he
came to this country but one short year ago
buoyant with youth and health to begin life
in the new country. His pleasant manners
and upright LIE made him beloved and re-
spected by all who knew him, and his sudden
illness and death brought deep regret to the
hearts OF his friends here, and untold grief
and desolation TO the happy household in the
far-off English home. He fell martyr TO the
fearful scourge while nursing the friends who
were dear to him; but may the hope that he
Is receiving his reward in a better world prove
a solace TO his bereayed parents, brother and
sister, and bring to them peace of mind that
nothing but resignation 10 the divine will
can bring. N.
At q meeting Of the Teachers Association
of the Memphis City Schools, held at Odd
Fellows Hall, on Saturday evening, Novem-
Der 18th, the follow ing resolutions OF respect
were unanimously adopted:
WHEREAS, 1t has pleased our Heavenly
Father to remove from her work here OuI
fellOw-teacher, Mrs. JENNIE COATS, for several
years q member OF this Association; be it
Resolved That we deeply regret the loss OF
an associate who by her quiet, unassumin u g
manners, her patient performance of the
duties assigned her, and her unaffected devO-
ton 10 her work for its own sake, had won
our sincere respect and esteem. That ouI
schools have lost a faithful, energetic, sue
eessful teacher-one who proved herself in .
remarkable degree, worthy the responsibility
of guiding the minds of innocent children
That the children intrusted 10 her care have
lost their hold of a gentle, guiding hand
which led them over the rough ways, and
their eyes miss the light OF a loving smile
that glori1ed the dull routine OF the road "a
knowledge. That We offer our sincere con.
dolenee to her bereaved family, whose nearer
ties add poignancy TO their atflictiOn, in
which we would remind them OF The perfect
record of her life and the " reasonable, re-
ligious and holy hope" of her death; and be
IL further
Resolved, That these resolutions be spread
upon the minutes of the Association, and a
copy thereof sent to the family OF the de-
ceased.

WHEREAS, When again resuming our work,
after the long and painful recess just over, we
find that our Heavenly Father has seen fit
to make vacant the place of our late loved
associate, Miss ELLA MCMAHON, for two
years one of our most earnest cOlaborers in
the cause of education; lie 1t
Resolved, That we deeply lament the loss of
a life, whose usefulness has been so suddenly
terminated, and whose career as an impaIter
of light to the youthful mind has been cut
her death, lose a teacher who, though still
young, had already attained high rank in
her chosen profession. A graduate OF the Fe-
male High School, class of 1871, she was be-
loved by both teachers and classmates; unit
ing gentle, amiable disposition TO great force
OF character aud an ardent love Of knOwl-
edge, and when entering upon the teachers
life, evincing ready tact and a patient zeal,
which gave her an unusual degree of success
for one SO young in years. That we deeply
sympathize with her bereaved mother and
sisters, whose grief, all inconsolable as it is,
must be temper ed with the remem Drance OF
the promise of the reunion of the blest, In
that bright port of eternal rest, that blessed
Heaven upon whose green shores the angel of
death never wanderS, the flowers never fade
nor loved ones pass away, but where the sun
shine of glory eternally reigns; and be 1t

members Of the crew of the Virginius
not shot at Santiago de Cuba there were
condemned TO the chain-gang for life,
three; TO eight years imprisonment,
eight; to four years Imprisonment,
sixteen, and three were set at liberty.
Owing to the continuous cutting of
the telegraph wires in the vicinity OF
Manzanillo, news from the latter place
up to the fourteenth instant has Just
been received by steamer at Batabano,
and from thence telegraphed here. The
people were in fear of another attack
from the Cuban forces who were still in
town, and who had cut off all commu-
nicstions with the interior.
Additional barricades have been con-
strueted, and some of the streets leading
toward the interior are completely ob-
structe6. Reinforcements of troops
reached the city yesterday, and the
crews Of few gunboats in the harbor
came ashore at night, to do guard-duty,
and assist in defending the city in case
of another attack. Large nlmbers of
families have left the city, while Others,

THE CREDIT MOBnIER INvEsTIGA.

By vote Of one hundred and thirty TO
seven the House yesterday decided to open
the doors Of the credit mobIlier investigating
committee, and to make public the testimony
that has already been taken. We arc thus
enabled TO present very full synopsis Of the
evidence thus far In our Issue this morning,
which, we are certain, 1t will be quite unne-
cessary to ask our readers TO peruse.
The passage Of tho resolution Is itself one
OF the most signal triumphs Of public opinion
and OF the press that has taken place In some
time. From every portion OF the country the
demand went up that the doors should be un-
locked, and that the staT-chamber inquisition
should come To an end. 1t is matter for
regret that the House, or, rather, certain gen.
ilemen In the House, did not have the good
sense to yield little more gracefully and not
make the show Of opposition that they did. |
Mr.. PolandS defence Of the committee was
unnecessary and he might well have left |
unsaid much that be did say. The debate
was unpleasantly suspicious, and will give |
The country an uniavorable impression OF the |
whole investigation. II was heroic in the
gentleman from Vermont to throw himself
Into the breach In defence Of musty prece-
uoht huu mofluNu ltNNllCAulltt; but the Or
dinary reading public will not, we fear, see 1t
In the same light, and will be apt to attribute
TO him motives which We prefer to believe
have no existence In fact. Mr.. Nlblack, too,
was extremely gingerly on the point, and ere.
ated the impression that there was something
that he wished to shuttle out Of sight Mr..
Cox made short, sharp and decisive speech,
which will do him no harm, but, on the con.
rary, great deal Of good. While the
discussion lasted the appeal to precedent
nd 80 forth was very strong, and Il
eemed at one time as II the party who
ayored, or were supposed to favor, Il secret y
would prevail, but the call for =
he yeas and nays turned the tide with the re-
alt above given. ItwAs certainly strange that -
o one on the ioor Of the House should have ,,
that four Of the most memorable
Ivestigations In our modern legislative his II
,ry-ths French arms investigation In the
ouse and In the Senate, tho New York Gus ~ y

'rtment Inquiry, all OF them occurring no

CUBA IN SPAIN

II Ia not as well understood In this country
as perhaps Il should be, that there Ia a strong
Cuban party In Spain, which has eloquent
and able representatives In the Cortes. Then,
there Is the Spanish abolition society, which
has flooded the country with petitions In
favor Of abolition and in thousand other
ways labored 10 create healthy public feel
Ing on the subject. Petitions have also been
presented again and again by various other
organizations. In support Of one Of these,
as late as October Of last year, Senior Garrido
said' "You say you want twelve thousand
more men TO crush the Cuban insurrection,
but this in'urrecton has already existed four
years, and now you come and tell us that you
want twelve thousand men TO subdue f. be-
sides the fifty thousand or more that you have
sent already. All what you must do with
Cuba Is not to send twelve thousand more
men from Spain, but send back from Cuba
the twelve thousand yultures which are de-
vouring II; what you must do with Cuba il
send her liberty, and great deal Of II, be-
cause liberty attracts, mollihes and render.
thankful its recipient. Let, then, liberty be
sent thither, and allow the Cubans to govern
themselves like the rest Of the Spanish prov
lnces. You may send your twelve thousand
men there, as you have sent many times
twelve thousand already during the last four
years, but you will not settle the question for
all that"

THE GIFT LOTTERY BUsJSRss.

Six or sight gift-lottery establishments are
now In full operation In this city, and reap
Ing plentiful harvest from the poorest and
the most wretched portions of our popula-
ton. II seems that there is no law by which
these swindling concerns can be broken up,
the old United States lottery laws not being
broad enough to meet the case. The sharpers
who are running these Institutions are simply
robbing their unfortunate victims. It is
really too bad that they should be allowed to
thus pursue course OF open and unblushing
yillainy without let or hindrance. The DO
lice did their duty In arresting, And the Dis
trict attorney In indlcting them. The court,

TO punish; but was compelled TO send them
