The General Assembly.

The General Assembly of the
Southern Presbyterian Church will
convene in Columhus, Thursday the
.2lst inst, and remain in session
about one week.
The Assembly is the highest court
of the Church, a delegated body,
and consists of an equal representa-.
ton of clergy and laymen from every
prosbytery within its bounds, EN-
bracing all the territory South of
Mason and DixOn's line, and even
more.
The number of commissioners will
not exceed one hundred and forty,
though, as is customary there will
probably be many others present in
the interest of the Church, not mem.
bers of the Assembly, who will be
considered our guests. In order
therefore TO their proper entertain.
ment, it will be necessary for the
Presbyterians of the city, in addi-
ton to extending their own fWllesi
hospitality, to invoke the kindness
of other denominations, and the citi
zens generally. This they do Will
confidence.
During the coming fortnight OuI
citizens may expect to hear from the
Committee of Arrangements on this
subject.
The forthcoming Assembly vii
be the first upon Mississippi soil
and it will be pleasing to the publ,
spirit OF our little city to learn that
in the competition for the place o
meeting, Columbus was chosen owe
the cities of Savannah, Atlanta ant
others. Our friends will appreciate
then our desire that in no respec
shall we tail to meet the expectation
Of the Church.

The Poole Robbers Caught.

We have the exceedingly crafty
ing intelligence that all of the Poole
robbers except one, have been
caught. They are all negroes, no
white man having been concerned
with them. The names Of those
who have been captured are, Geo.
Sanders, RandIe Eggleston and ''lit-
tle' lobe Eggleston. The fourth.
who is known as "big" lobe Eggles-
ton, alias lobe Arlington, alias VIM.
Fletcher, is still at large with about
sos 90 Of his ill-gotten gains in his
pocket. 1t is earnestly hoped that
he may soon be found-at the bot
tom of the Tombigbee in twenty
feet water
The circun stances which led to
the detection and capture of these
miscreants, rs accurately as we could
learn. are as follows Last Sunday,
-ee onurcn, Ia the The. Eggleston
neighborhoOd, a negro woman, whose
name We could not learn, paid Mrs.
Gibson a So bill. As the woman did
not usually have that much money,
aud in fact did not have any the
day previous, suspicion was aroused
aud she was asked where she got
that money. She said it was some
of the Pool money and that she got
il from Randlo Egg'eston. He, up
on being confronted by the accuser,
confessed his guilt and implicated
the others mentioned and all, ex-
ccpt the dijGStie scoundrel, were ar
rested Tuesday morning and taken
to Pickens county, Ala, to undergo
a preliminary trial before Justice
Sim Spruill OF the stolen money,
only about $50 90 have as yet been
recovered. In the house of Randle
Egglcston was found a gun and
q dcmijon, which were sto-
len from Mr.. Pools house. -"LittIe"
lobe Eggleston, also, confessed, but
Geo. Sanders denied his guilt. All
Of them lived in the Bob Armstrong
and the The. Eggleston neighbor-
hood.
Our community is very indignant
at the atrocious crime committed by
hcse black rascals, and everybody
earnestly hopes that the full measure
Of Justice will be meted out to them,
aad that, too, with becoming celebrity.
Since the above was written, S65
more have been recovered from Ran
die Eggleston.

Civil Rights and the Public Schools.

In reference 10 the effect of the Civil
Rights bill upon the public schools, Prof.
NJ. A. Newell, President of the State
Board of Education, has written the fol-
lowing letter to Hon. Lloyd Lowndes, rep
resenting the 9th District of this State in
Congress
OPYIcE or THE SrASE BoARp OF EDUCATION, /
BALTIMORE, January I'd, 1874. !
Hon. LLoyd Lorndes--D Dear Sir 1T is
currently reported here that one effect of the
Civil Rights bill now before the House of
T, Representatives, il passed, will be to throw
open the public schools to colored children.
II Is also reported that prominent member
of the Maryland Legislature has prepared q
bill for the abolition of the public school sys-
TEN of the State, which he means to introduce
in the event of the Civil Rights bill becoming
law.
1t would be very unfortunate indeed, if the
attempt 10 open the public schools to colored
children should result in our State in closing
them against white children, but it cannot be
concealed that If the issue were presented to
the Legislature of mixed schools or mo
Schools" there would probably be a majority
Of no schools.
During the past year there has been 2l0
schools opened to colored children. They
have been attended by more than 10000 pu-
pills, and have cost the State $69,577.lS This
Is very well for one years work but the peo-
pie are prepared to do more and better; and,
II not interiered with, will make ample pro-
vision for all the colored children within their
borders.
II would be great pity that this grand
work should be arrested. In Maryland, for
the present at least, we must have separate
schools or no schools. have the honor to be
Very respectfully and truly yours,

Crop Reports and Statistics.

The National Crop Reporter, Jackson
vile, ILL.,, publishes summary of the re-
ports Of the corn and potato crops of 1873
in Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Wis
consin, Minnesota Missouri, Ohio. and
Tennessee, compared with the crop of
1872. The loss in corn bushels in these
States is in round numbers as follows -
Illinois, ll4,200,000; Indiana, 12,800,-
900; Iowa, 36, 500, 900; Kansas, l4,50O,.
900; Minnesota, | 900, 900; Missouri, 30
600 900; Ohio, 20,600, 900; Wisconsin, | =
100000; Tennessee, $500, 900, a total of
PAL 100000. The aggregate yield for
1873 in the States named is $4,000, 900
bushels, against 56,O00,000 in 1879.
The potato crop in the States named shows
loss in round numbers in bushels as fol-
lows: Illinois, 6,000,0OO; Iowa, 4,000,-
600; Kansas, 1900, 900; Minnesota, $780,
600; Missouri, l, 100000; Ohio, 400
900; Wisconsin, 1,l00,0O0; Indiana, L.
0000--a total of 1S,400,000 bushels.
The aggregate crop in these States was for
1872, 100000 bushels, and for 1873,
100000 bushels.
In its issue of the 10th instant the
Reporter publishes the final estimates of
last years crop of oats and hay in Illinois,
Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Mis-
souri,, Ohio, Tennessee and Wisconsin.
The estimated total production of oats in
the States named in 1872, was, in round
numbers, 1872, 100000 bushels, and the
falling off from this in 1873, is placed ut
10 2-l0 per cent. Indiana shows the
heaviest loss, being over II per cent, and
Tennessee the largest gain, of nearly .
per cent. The estimates of the hay crop
give an average falling of of the crops Of
1873 as compared with that of 1872, equal
to 81 per cent, and makes the total yield
last year in the above States nearly TO-
100000 tons.
Reports from correspondents Of the
Crop Reporter indicate an unusually ia
vorable condition of the growing wheat in
most sections, although in few localities
it is feared damage has been done by al
formations of freezing and thawing weather.
