In connection with these exercises, the

men of talent and deep thought have been
selected todiseuss the question pro. and con-,
R. III. Hook and G. G. Jackson taking the
side of the affirmative, while the negative

Rather Cool, That.

A woman brought bedstead to one of
our furniture dealers and desired that il be
reprinted and vanished, as her son had
died in it. = On being asked as to the ma
ture of the disease that brought her
son to an early grave, she, in a mat
ter-of-course manner, answered that it was
the small pox. She didn't get,the work
done at that shop, you bet, and had to try
her luck somewhere else. Proceeding to
the next cabinet makers, she very wisely
CD withheld the information as to the
death of her son, and simply ordered
the work and left. A few minutes later,
furniture dealer No. coming in as dealer
No. was In the act of carrying the bed
stead into the painting room, he asked No.
2 what he charged for painting small pox
bedsteads, and related what he knew i'm
regard to- the matter. At last accounts
that bedstead could have been seen stand-
ing in the back alley awaiting the owners
pleasure.

superintendent Notice.
COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT OFFICE,
M 49, KNoyyvrIE Nav IL. 1873

KNOXVILLE, May Is, 1873.
| I have received, for the use of Justices
and School Commissioners, pamphlet
copies of the new school law. accompanied
| by the State Superintendent's address,
| which can be obtained by calling at the
Office of the city Postmaster, where have
established my headquarters, and will be
glad to see and confer with all school off
GERS and friends of education.
AS soon as the State Superintendent's
instructions are issued, which will be after
the Convention of County Superintend-
ents at Nashville, on the 22d instant, I ex-
pect to meet the Commissioners and people
at various points in the county, and confer
with them in regard to the great work
about to be inaugurated. The Importance
ofprompt and earnest action by the friends
of education in every school district in the
county, cannot be too strongly urged. The
success of the system depends upon the
degree of vigor and harmony with which
both officers and people take hold Of the
work. In this enlightened age when free
schools have become vital necessity, it
would seem almost superfluous to advance
arguments in their favor. It is to be hoped
that every district will beswide awake to
the great importance of electing live and
energetic school men-men who have the
success of the school system at heart-for
directors, on the first Thursday ia August.
School houses should, also, be put in thor
ough repair and, as far as possible, fitte d
up with modern school furniture. Where
it is necessary new school houses should
be built since every district which fails to
have schools during the scholastic year,
will lose its apportionment of the public
fund for that year. iJ --l.il-I-
Teachers will not be examined until
State instructions are issued and L would
urge upon those intending to teach to pre-
pare themselves in the meantime for OBJ
tanning certificates OF, the highest grade
possible, as there will be a great demand
for teachers of the best class. -
There are some obscure points in the law
which will be constructed i'm due time by
the State Superintendent and in the mean
while any suggestion from educators and
the people in general which will assist me
in my preparatory work will be thank
fully received. Your hearty cooperation
is earnestly requested.
Very respectfully, &C.,
Il. G. HARMS,
County Superintendent.

Another Victim.

Yesterday a countryman, after having
disposed of his produce to the amount of
about $50, paid visit to the house of a
woman Of noted character by the name of
Mary Eastep alias Highsinger, living on
State street in the Crozier lot, and remain
ed there for some little time. He finally
left there minus his fifty dollars, and at
once procured a warrant for her arrest In
the mean time Mary was not idle, and by
the time the arrest was affected the defence
was well supplied with witnesses, and the
poor duped countryman stood no sort of
chance in swearing single-handed against
three or four good (?) witnesses, who stood
unimpeached before Esquire Yardly, who
tried the case, and from the evidence in
her favor he was forced to release her. 1t
is to be hoped that the man in questio
has Learned valuable lesson, and when he
next has fifty dollars in his pocket. will
make for his home and stay away from
such places of ill-fame.

Stole q Bride.

Yesterday afternoon, man by the name
of Ham Shetterly was seen by some one
taking the bride ofa countryman's horse,
which he had fastened to post in the out.
skirts of the city, and making his way
with the stolen article towards East Knox
vile. The party who saw the theft imme-
diately communicated the fact to the fl rst
policeman he found, Mr.. Patrick Ashe,
who at once followed up the thief. He
came up with his man somewhere east OF
First Creek, and notified him that he was
wanted, and taking possession of the
bride, attempted to bring the youth to the
calaboose when a struggle ensued, and Mr..
Ashe was forced to send after assistance be-
fore he could be induced to accompany
them. Ham will probably have hearing
before Esqire Ochs to-day.

The Philharmonic Society deserve
thanks for the very enjoyable picnic they
projected and carried out yesterday. AT 10
A. NJ, the r. G. jackson, under command
of Capt. Hennegar, took down its first load
of passengers to Lyons View. The early
boat load was composed of those who;.went
to make the day one of recreation and
real pleasure. They reached the landing
on Col. Craig's place about 11:30, where
they found the kind proprietor had made
such arrangements for their comfort as his
short notice would permit.
Hodgson's String Band was on hand,
and took possession of a shady platform
erected for them, A level plot had been
prepared with sawdust for croquet and
dancing. Messrs. Spiro had ice cream,
lemonade and confecti0nefies provided.
The day was spent in games, dancing
and rompiDg, and good time generally.
At 4p. NJ, the boat brought hundred or
more, young and old, most of whom came
for moonlight dance and ride on the
beautiful river. The views from the
steamers deck between Knoxville and
Lyons View are exceedingly fine. Those
who have never steamed down the river
should avail themselves of the next OPP
portunity to do SO, for the scenery wen re-
pays the time spent in the trip. We left
the company at 6 P. NJ, dancing and as
merry as young people know how to be.

President Grant in Virginia.

While many of us differ with President
Grant, few will say that the people of Vir-
ginia have cause to complain of his treat
ment. While the State has presented con-
tinually, since 1869, a solid front against
the Republican party, President Grant has
shown friendly disposition toward Vir-

now affecting some of the Southern States
