CHOLERA.

The excitement in this place for the
last few days in regard to Cholera is moi
to be wondered at, considering the reports
that are received every day from different
sections Of the State, but more especially
from our neighboring town. Greeneville.
The large number of deaths at Nashville
was alarming, but when the disease at
tackled our neighbors Of Greene, it created
quite n panic. 1t is our object to quell
the fear and excitement now existing, as
much as possible, and to remind the peo>
pie that quiet aud frmness are great pre-.
yentaiives Of disease. 1t is not necessary
for us 10 attempt to prove that the dis
ease is not cholera, for knowing that
many who are attacked with it die, is suf-
6cient to cause the alarm, whether it be
: cholera, cholera morbus or diarrhea. It
is proper to state that the disease is ush>
cred in by simple diarrhea, which if
promptly checked by proper remedies
generally arrests and terminates it.
Nearly all fatal cases Of the disease are
caused by some ~imprudent act of the per-
son, either by cooling off too suddenly
when ~overheatcd, or by eating large guam.
titles Of vegetables that have grown quick>
Iy aud not maturcd, or by being exposed
to the miasma from low wet grounds or
unhealthy streams. Another cause that
should not be overlooked is fear. 1t is a
well known fact that fear alone will re-
duce the strongest systems TO most pitia,
lily debilitated condition, it is very im.
portant in times like these to keep as calm
and self-controlled as possible. We adj
wise every citizen in town and surround
ing country to use disinfectants freely,
have all 9Th removed from your prem.
Uses. scatter lime around your houses and
in the cellars.
Another important thing is to govern
the appetite. We do not mean by this
that sufficient nourishment should not be
taken, but on the contrary the appetite
should be fully satisfied with healthy food.
Many persons becoming alarmed refuse to
take their usual nourishment, thereby
failing to fortify the system against dis
case, becoming weak and debilitated an6
in the least exposure to the cause of the
disease will be attacked. We therefore
advise every one who is now in good
health, to keep calm, do not get excited,
eat your regular meals Of healthy diet,
use no alcoholic drinks unless it be a lit
tie blackberry wine, clean up your prem.
Uses and then we noe1 have but little fear
Of cholera in this mountainous country.

EpIroRs HERALD AND TRIBUNE:
Permit me to offer a few thoughts for
publication in the columns of your excel.
lent Journal, upon the character Of the
exercises, at the close of our schools.
One very interesting feature at the close
Of many Of our schools, is the excellent
vocal music by the pupils themselves, and
the desire manifested by teeshers, patrons
and pupils, to introduce vocal music into
other schools whore this has not already
been done. Another encouraging sign,
that we are making progress in tho true
direction. is the elevated moral sentiment
that characterizes most Of the selections
in defamation, recitation. Sc. Notwith,
standing these evidences Of more correct
views Of the true nature aad purpose Of
sducstion, there is yet great room for i'm.
p%rovement,
Tia prevailing tone of the exercises at
the close Of some schools would seem TO
indicate that the amusement of the audi.
spcs was tho principal object sought.
Now, according to my ideas on the sub
jecs this iss mistaken notion, True, /
believe that "a little nonsense now and
then is rslishsd BY the vissst men J" yet
the comic slsnsn. should constitute only
. very small per centage Of the selections,

THE RESULT.

Even at this early day, we can begin
to see the result Of the Teachers Insti
tute. As means Of stirring up botl
teachers and the people, there is nothing
like these gatherings of educators. The
art of teaching has never received the
attention the Importance of the subject
demands. The idea prevailed that any
body could teach school, in some localitie,
it still prevails. But teaching is a pro.
fession, and we lock to our teachers asso
cations as a means of giving dignity and
tone to the profession. We expect 10 see
the standard of teaching in common
schools elevated. We expect to see a
better class Of school houses and better
schools IN them. The day is near at hand
when a uniformity of text books for the
county, will be adopted, and when teach.
ers will be paid according to the grade of
the certificate which they hold. These
improvements Imply a system real and
practical, whose every part works in per.
feet harmony. Without this, our school
system will never enlist the sympathy
and full cooperation of the people.
These necessary changes can be brought
about by the teachers and friends of free
schools through the means Of Teachers
Institutes and Associations.

a disposition to see actual work, and moths

The Firm Propose q Settlement with
the Creditors of the Houses In WASH
ington, New York and Philadelphia.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Oct. s, 1873.
Jay Cooke & CO. have completed their detailed
statement OF assets and liabilities and prepared
orm OF agreement for settlement to be presented
or their creditors consideration. The main fea.
lures OF the proposal are as follows:-
The members of the firm surrender all their part
nership and individual property.
Trustee L. A. Rollins late Commissioner OF
Internal Revenue, has been chosen, with the ap.
proval OF the leading creditors, to manage the
winding up OF the estate.
Pro rata dividends Will be made as fast as sum-
eient cash Is realized from the conversion OF assets
beginning very soon after the basis is approved OF
Settlements may be made with individual credi-
tors under restrictions which guard the rights OF
all.
The trustee Is to act under the advice and con-
troll OF committee OF three pi ointment Philadelphia
business men-Messrs. =. M. FELTON,, late President
OF the Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore
Railroad Company; William @. Houston, OF the
Girard Bank and Dell Nobtt, Jr., President OF the
Corn Exchange Bank. -
After ali the assets are paid In full the remain
ing estate will be reassigned.
IL is understood that the firm do not propose TO
cali a general meeting OF the creditors as they
have been doing business in three dinerent cities
and the creditors are so scattered as 10 render
such meeting impracticable. They VIII, however,
address notes to such number OF their creditors in
the three cities as can be conveniently seen from
day TO day at each point, and submit papers with
oral explanations.
Three additional parties In this city have filed
papers to have the firm declared bankrupt.

Eng o restoration OF the monarchy, with
the Count de Chambord as Henri v. The
NEW Republican party now complete, is constantly
xeceiving new accessions to its ranks. Never

(which they have been bribing the weak and

mas been promised a baronetcy Immediately
after the restoration, which may now be con-
eidered as almost sure to come about soon
after the Assembly convenes. That M. Theirs
should have consented at last to the alliance with

Appeal to the United states for Aid.
WASHINGTON, Oct. s, 1878.
Private dispatches received here tonight from
Paris definitely state that the crisis of the Republic
Us rapidly approaching and that events may be pre-
cipitated at any hour.
The republican leaders earnestly appeal to their
friends in the United States to organize clubs and
call public meetings with the view of arousing IA
vorablc and active public sentiment in behalf of
the republican cause in France as against the
designs OF the monarchists.
The appeal was signed by republican leaders
whose position, it is said entities them to speak
with authority worthy Of great consideration.
1t is reported tonight as one OF the most remark
able points in the situation Of affairs in France
chat an alliance has taken place between some Of
those who represent the socialists and working
men and Prince Jerome Napoleon, who is supposed
TO desire to prove himself more French and repub-
hcan than imperialistic.
This idea is condemned by the strongest radical
leaders, 1t is said and could only be considered by
them as possible means of securing votes in the
Assembly against the monarchists, who claim to
have majority.
The French Assembly is composed or 73s Depu-
ties, consequently $40 would be majority II every
