AT SEA.


She has looscned the braids Of her long,
long hair,
And slowly itfalleth down 70 her feet,
All! never had maiden trcs.cs more rare.
And never was face so dimly sweet
They have looked IN the mirror polished
sheen,
Yet never have eyes met with eyes so
blue,
And never were lips so rcd, wecn,
As the lips to her absent lover true.
Long at her easement she fingers to gaze
Into the night so hopelessly dark.
and some faint, faint hopes are lost in the
maze
or her sobs and cries for distant bark.
"Lord Of The heavens! TO thee / come
To pray for the love that Is out ut sea:
Breathe gentle breeze to wait him home.
Bring him once more to love and 10 me!',
There's II breath on the gale Size may not
know,
There's u cry in the air she may not hear,
There's manly form meath the pillows
low,
There's watery shroud, there's sandy
bier.
The Wild sea IS weeping its bitters tears,
While the rocks and the reef, have made
their moan,
Ard the heart OF the maiden is full Of fears.

Franklin Review and Journal
The preliminary examination of J.
G. Bliss, before Jordan A. Malone,
Esq, charged with procuring the
burning or attempt to burn, his
store-houso in Franklin, some time
ago, was concluded at o'clock, p.
m, last Friday. The evidence was
mostly circumstantial, but very
strong against the prisoner. Wit
nosses were here from jackson.
Tenn, and Guthrie, Ky. The de-
tense examined no witnesses, and
the counsel made no arguments in
the ease. Esq. Malone took the
ease under deliteration until 10
o'clock Saturday, when he bound
Bliss over to the Criminal Court.
in bonds of $4,000. Bliss failed to
give bond, and is now in Jail. One
circumstance brought out on the
trial was that a few days subso-
quent to the burning, Bliss was ar
rested at Guthrie, in disguise. He
registered at a hotel there under
the assumed name of B. Poole, and
seeing parties there who recogniz.
ed him, went to a barber shop kept
by a negro named Dick MoSby, and
paid him 4 dollar and half to black
him with burnt cork. The news Of
the burning had preceded him, and
he was arrested in this Disguise
He was released the next day, how
ever, and a few days afterwards
turned up here, when he was re-
arrested on the charge rs stated a.
bove. Nothing elected in the ex-
animation drew out the least SYM
pathy in any quarter for Bliss, and
the general impression in the com.
munity is that he is guilty as
charged.
P. 9. Bliss was brought before |
Judge McLemore yesterday on a |
writ of haJeds corpus, and his bond |
was reduced to $500. He has not
given security as yet. !

PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

Public schools are public property and
as such are subject to oil just criticism.
Teachers are, in a certain sense, public
servants and their work should be care
fully and critically Examined, the good
approved and the bad rejected. Tho
great object Of all true criticism is, the
elicitation oftruth. A fault>fnding spirit
should not be encouraged, but honest,
free and prudent criticism will benefit
the teacher and do the school COOL. If
a teacher does honest work and succeeds
in the school room, be is entitled to the
honor due a faithful public servant, but,
lion tie other hand, he is careless and
fails frOm neglect Of daty to render such
services us the employers have a right to
demand Of him, lien it is nothing but
justice that the fact should be known.
Such a course may seem harsh, but the
success Of the school is q matter of such
vast importance as b, ADORE and beyond
the interest Of any private individual q.
If it should ever become necessary to
''write up" a teacher or a school, we shall
not shrink from the task. When the
public good demands it, we shall speak
plainly yet courteously about the school.
