The Banlkrupt Law.

The provisions Of the bankrupt act, with
recent smendments,E Fare not generally un-
derstood. A bankrupt can obtain dis
charge from all liabilities incurred previous
to the 1st of January, 1869, as principal
debtor, and from all liabilities incurred since
then as surety or accommodation eDdorser,
without paying any part of the indebted
ness. Debts incurred by bankrupt, as
principal debtor, since 1st January, 1869,
must be paid with so per cent. if creditors
appear and prove their claims, provided
that a majority in number and value of
creditors, who have proved their debts,
may grant the Bankrupt a discharge from
all bis Indebtedness. The only amendment
adopted by the recent Congress does not
effect any change in Tennessee. 1t passed
the House of Representatives Jan. 81, 1873,
and the Senate the 18th of February, being
as follows:
Belt enacted by the Senate and House
of Representatives of the United States of
America in Congress assembled, that it
was the true intent and meaning of an act
approved March 2, 1867, that the exemp
tions allowed the bankrupt by the said
amendatOry act, should, and it is hereby en-
acted, that they shall be the amount
allowed by the constitution and laws of
each State respectively, as existing in the
year 1871; and that such exemptions
be valid against debts contracted before
the adoption and passage of such State
constitution and laws, as well as those con-
tracted after the same, and against liens by
judgment or decree of any State court !;
any decision of any such court rendered
since the adoption and passage of such
constitution and laws to the contrary not
withstanding. -

A Sad Reunion,

Yesterday afternoon, at Mt. Olivet Gem
etery, a long severed family group assem-
bled about The open grave of one who was
once widely known citizen of Nashville.
Reference is made to Mr.. Samuel j. Car
ter, whose funeral was preached on Tues
day last from the residence of bis brother,
Mr.. A. G. Carter. Several years since the
family removed to New York, but, at the
time Of his death, Mr. Carter was in this
State. His children, widely scattered, were
summoned here, and as many as could
fastened to join the sad group. But few
hours before the final scene his daughter,
with the dearly loved grandchild, arrived
from the East, and once more an old fami-
ly, which has always been an honored one
here, stood in familiar spot and gave up
TO the grave all that remained Of beloved
husband and father. Itwas the last trib-
ute that affection could bestow, and was
only the more mournful because of the abb
sence Of yet Others of the children. The
scene, in all its painful details, was one
long to be remembered by those who wit

Our Medical school.

The new organization of the Faculty of
the Medical College is regarded as eminent
ly advantageous to that department of the
Nashville University.
DIs. Bowling, j. b. Lindsey and c. K.
Winston, although of their own motion dis
connected with the Faculty as lecturers, will
undoubtedly continue to feel deep and
abiding interest in the thriving school which
they have done so much to place upon an
enduring foundation.
The addition of DR.. Stafford and Dr.
Menees will add to its efficiency. DR.. S.
has wide and much deserved reputation
as a scientist, and will fill the chair of
Chemistry with ability. DR.. Menees takes
the chair of Materia Medica; DIR. Van S.
Lindsey, that of Physiology; DR.. Madden,
that of Theory and Practice; DR.. Nichol,
that of Obstetrics, while Drs. Eve, Briggs
and BuchaIan continue to occupy the
chairs of Surgery and Anatomy.
Perhaps there is not a medical school in
the country better organized for work and
instruction-snd we are glad to know that
its prospects of success in the brilliant career
upon which it has entered are bright and
Frightening.

Death Of a Former Resident.

We find the following in the Atlanta
(Ga) Christian IIlder: Miss Julia Jones
died at the residence of Hon. John L..
Hopkins. Collins street, Atlanta, on Tues
day morning, April /, 1878. Miss Jones
was born and educated in the city of Nash
vile, and has been in the family of Judge
Hopkins about two years, as a private
teacher, and in this department was regard
ed as very competent and efficient. She
was an orphan indeed, leaving no near re-
lative to mourn her loss. She was a mem
Der Of the Methodist Church, and early in
life was trained in the Sunday-schoo under
the attention of Mr.. Isaac Paul, of Nash
vile. During her illness she received the
kindest attention and care of the family of
Judge Hopkins. She passed away calmly
Just as the morning sun sounded upon our
city. Deeply do we sympathise with the
family and friends in their affection.

It Is said that the most beautiful girl in
the United States lives near Lincoln, Ills.
Her hair is of that peculiar hue that field
of ripe wheat throws toward the setting
sun. Her eyes send forth light SO effu!-
gent and magnetic that strangers become
spellbound under its influence and stand
rudely gazing. Her cheeks bear bloom
like the sunny aide of an early peach. A
pearl would seem almos5 black beside her
teeth. Her form is so graceful that men
worship her before seeing her face. Her
hands suggest the idea of waxen fingers
tipped with vermilion. Her smile seems ac-
tually to illuminate her presence, and when
she laughs the listener faucies he he ars
sweet music in the distance.
