ouR mArERIAL INgrnEsTs.

It's encouraging to read the papers of
Tennessee. Instead Of discussing poll
tics and engaging in those contempti-
BILE broils which once derogated from the
good character Of the press, they are
busy in discussing all that concerns cur
substantial wants!snd interests. AS an
evidence Of this, we give the following
extract from. the GAINESVILLE Chronicle:
THE cotton crop Of three years is said
t. have brought some twenty-five mill
lion dollars, and where is the money
now? Gone back north for bread and
meat, clothes and implements, with a
heavy interest sUpersdded. This is the
sort Of political economy and enlighU-
ened craftsmanship which have been
so successful in poverishing the
south and keeping its nose
to the political grindstone. Pow
erty by the side of wealth,
in individual cases, is st great disad-
vantage, but where that poverty is the
lot Of whole co nmunities, it endsngers
liberty and commercial independence,
and every political blessing dependent
upon those paramount conditions OF
general prosperity and public virtue.n
There il truth and wisdom in these re-
marks. In labOTing to promote the great
material interests OF Tennessee, our
friends Of the press will find in the AP-
PEAL an earnest, zealOus cO-laborer. Let
the newspapers Of the State proclaim
from day to day that Tennessee wants
money and muscle; wants thrifty, en-
terprising cmigrants as settlers to aid in
developing her resources; wants her big
plantations and farms divided and sub
divided until the tracts are 50 small that
they can be cultivated more highly and
made more productive. Let us work to
attract labor TO the State, and 70 invite
cITitaI to safe aDd,pTofitsbie investments
in our midst. By inviting and holding
ont inducements to the bone snd sinew
OF other States and other natiOnalities,
We viii DO much 10 restore our State 10
it's prosperity Let as demonstrate by
facts and figures that no State in the
south offers such a tempting region to
the agricultuIist; that within our bor-
ders can Toe found all the necessaTies,
aud more Of the iuxuries, Of refined life
than any spot under the sun. We can
dilate, without exsggerstion about our
inexhaustible mines of iron and coal.
Let us show that We can locate greater
variety Of settlers than any other State,
assuring them OF the healthiulness Of
our climate, which is triumphantly
proven by the vital statistics OF the
United Ststes, and that it mas been our
misfortune that the labor Of other States,
and nations has been ignorant Of the
crest advantages we. have to offer. Let
Us remove every prejudice sgainst our
section by an exhibition Of truth. Let
Us, too, not forget to fearlessly denounce
riots, mobs, lsWIessness, and fearlessly
adhere 10 the enforcement Of the State
lava, however oppressive. Such is the
mission Of the press, and We are graft
fed TO see that our Tennessee cotempO-
raries are faithfully. dischsrgiDg their
duties.

THERE is nothing in the State trea-
surer's Or. Morrow report at vari-
ance with our statement that 81, 600, 900
would be sufficient to pay the interest
upon our bonds and the expenses Of the
State government economically adj
ministered. 1t is true he says it would
require s.. $50, 592to pay the "current ex-
peuses, including interest on the public
debt, amount due fiscal agent for Dor
rowed money, outstanding warrants
and other expenses" but large portion
Of this amount would,be satisfied by the
arrearages Of taxes uncolIeeted, the
amount Of taxes up to the first Of Janu-
airy 1875 being 81, S28, 1888 Al. The out
standir & treasury warrant account was
reduced Sl93. 543 % from the first of
January, 1873, to the first Of January.
1875, snd the loan account was reported
January l, 1873, at 100000; it was on
the first Of January, 1875, only SOS, 600.
Had the taxes due on the first of Janu.
airy 1875, and prior to that time, been
collected, the interest on the'State debt
and the expenses Of the State govern
ment could easily have teen paid with
cut borrowing any money; but when
the Legislature suspended the collection
Of taxes they should have made some
arrangement for the January and
July interest, as they could easily have
done had they been equal to the occa-
sion. We believe forty cents tax will
bring into the State treasury, with other
sources Of revenue, two million dollars,
and that this will be enough to pay cur
rent expenses, including interest on the
public debt; but il it would not do so,
some arrangement should lie made to

Times says: "The Times would suggest,
however, that local pride should prompt
the Memphians to reject this counsel
with scorn. They should not suffer
themselves to be dependent on the north
Tor debts as well as labOr-saving
inventions. They will consult their
dignity by inventing a plan of their
own, 1t wouldn't look well for the
mayor and common council OF q consid-
cradle city like Memphis TO break for
the windows on the appearance OF q
court officer, to say nothing OF the in
t,lerable modification Ct borrowing
their tactics from the mudsill city
o, WATERFOWL. But If they are resolved
upon subordinating their pride to con-
siderations Of expediency, they will do
well to import VIM. NJ. Dennis and few
other experienced advisers from Water
town, whose services can probably be
secured on reasonable terms. In this
quarter Of the globe people are not ex-
cessiveIy proud of the Wstertown per-
flrmsnce, and will not seriously object
II the MeUphishs manage to appropri-
ate all the glory" The APPEAL most
cordially indorses the language Of the
Times. A strict observance Of the law
is the aim Of every good citizen. When
ever our city authorities resort to sharp
practices, unworthy chicane and crafty
no n dish
beying the mandates OF the court, that
moment We inaugurste anarchy and
Iawlessness. Let our city authorities.
resist every debt against the city that is
illegal or unjust. But in the name of
law and order, in the name of decency,
and for the honor Of civilized commu-
nifty, we advise them to resort to no
evasion of law. II this is to be the
practice of the country, the mob will
soon take tie place Of our courts Of JUS
tice. Next tho Taxpayers, whose prop
erty is advertised at tax-ssle, will hold
meeting and advise the tax-collector to
resign or go to Jail rather than comply
with the law of the. State and his sworn
duty. Then we will have another
meeting of debtors, who will demand
that the sheriff resign or go to Jail
rather than sell their property under ex'
ecution. How can we condemn, riots and
mOb-law when our citizens are encour-
aging lawlessne s. The common law Of
the land should be supreme. The courts
OF the country should be respected.
When good citizens resort to strategy,
tricks and tioese for the purpose Of
ev&ding the mandates of court of JUS
tice, an example is made for bad men
whose only hope Of escaping justice is
by similar resort. II our laws are to be
respected by the worst classes, our best
classes must set the example, however
hard it may be. We urge this matter
on the community, not only because it
is right, but because it is expedient.

MISSISSIPPI UHrTED STATES sENA.
TOR.


The Democracy Of Mississippi are SO
sanguine of success in the next State
election that they have already COM
menced discussing the senatorial cleo
ton. 1t will be seen from the extracts
we publish in another column, that Col
onel William H. M Cardle, OF the Vicks-
burg Herald, has been brought forward
a. candidate. He is one CT the ablest
editors Of the south, and if long and
faithful services to the Democrat
ic party should control this cleo
ton, Colonel M'Cardle will re-
ceive the cordial and enthusiast
tic support Of his party. He is an old
line Wing; but he has the sagacIty to
see that victory can only be won under
the Democratic banner, and his power
full pen is enlisted in noble effort to
rally and unite the Democratic hosts of
Mississippi in a solid and impregna-
bic phalanx. Missouri has elect
ed Cockrell, and Georgia, Gordon,
to the United States sem
ate, and Mississippi should elect Col
onel William ii. M'CardIe, the equal of
either in intellectual ability and in de-
votiOn to the south. In the event of
their triumph in the approaching cleo
ton, the Democracy of Mississippi
could reward no truer son, no warmer
heart, no Drawer spirit, no more chival-
rous and gallant champion Of their prin-
ciples, reputation, honor and fame
than Colonel M'Cardle. In the war
with corruption and usurpation he has
rendered his services, not laggardly and
spsringly, but as he does everything he
undertakes, with his whole soul and in
tellect, with all the immense momentum
Of his iRdomitable energy, and, if need
be, with his life. In the hour of impend-
ing danger hestands proudly erect, ready
for the conflict. With glowing language
he always vindicates what he deems to
be right. and denounces the wrong.
Trained in politics, thorough
ly conversant with all pub
lie questions, wise in cOun-
Gil, willing to take responsibility, and
possessing the highest order of talent, he
would dignity and sdorn the senate of
the United States. His long services
have been exclusively devoted to Missis-
sippi, and in the contest which will be
fnaugurated in a few days he will be
what Atdel Ksder was in the field.
His plume will wave in the thickest Of
Of the fight. 1t was to his own personal
and powerful exertions in the last cleo
ton for mayor OF Vicksburg that hon.
esty triumphed over corruption, and if
the Democracy succeed in the next great
battle it will be chiefly through his
matchlsss energy and ability. Such a
man should receive the honors OF his
party in the hour Of victory.

get indulgence from our creditors until
the forty cents tax, with the increased
wealth Of the country, would furnish
the means to meet all our liabilities.
States as well as individuals are often
placed In situations where they have to
ask indulgence from their creditors, and
if they manifest disposition to pay they
can get that indulgence. 1t is the re-
fusal to pay or to make any reasonable
arrangements that leads TO many finan-
cial difficulties with States, as with in
dividuals. Whenever States or individ-
uals manifest an indisposition to meet
their obligations, they make matters
much worse with them and prevent Or
rangements which would be mutually
beneficial.

The Kenosha Co. Norma Institute con-
vened at Wilmet, Tuesday Aug. Both and
closed Friday, Sept 10th. Prof Robert
Graham of the Oshkosh Normal School
was the conductor and was assisted by
Supt, Fletb and other teachers of the
county. The entire enrolment was Ga,
which was good taking into considers
ton the number Of schools IN the county
which is about 60. The attendance was
almost perfect, being about SO per cent.
In order and work as we'll as punctuallty
the Institute was model. The work
done during the entire session was high
~ creditable, both to the conductor ami
members Of the Institute. The aim of
ward work and no time was spent in
discussing the technicalities. Sound
practical methods if instruction we're intro
duced andcarried into practice. Every plan
presented to the teachers by the conduca
tor, was fully developed by him in the
form of practical class drill. There was
no presentation of theory, without full
and searching analysis of its practicabili
ty. The work done was such, as meets
the needs Of our districts schools and all
OF the teachers have gone forth feeling
that they have gained strength from the
work dane during the two weeks they
were together. Prof Graham delivered
u lecture before tue Institute on the sub
ject Of Government" it was q fine effort
a5ounding in sound sense and practical
advice, and was fully appreciated by the
members Of the institute. A prominent
feature of the work, was the model class
drill" conducted daily by different teach
ers of the institute. This work was of
great value to the teachers, as it gave
them an opportunity to witness the
methods of the most successful teachers
of the county and profit by tue criticisms
on their work. We missed many famil.
lar and old time faces, and welcomed
many new ones to our corps of workers.
Onthe whole, the institute Of 1875, will
| be long remembered, by the teachers Of
Kenosha Co. as one Of pleasant and high
Fly profitable work. Appended is the re-
1 pors Of the committee on resolutions.
[ Resolved we, the teachers of
Kenosha Co.. extend our heartful thanks
to Prof. Graham for the efficient manner
IN which he has conducted the exercises
OF The institute. That, as teachers, we
recognize the value of his labor among
us, and feel, through his efforts, keener
appreciation of the true dignity of our
calling. That, in the whole time he has
been with US, he has shown himself a
true teacher, by presenting his work in a
! s5stamatic manner and by his ear nest
endeayor to undue US with his own spir-
lit of Progress.
Resolved-That we feel gratified to
Messrs. ID. III. Flett, D. A. MahoneY and
JamesCsVenaugh for their valuable work
Resolyed-Tha. we extend our thanks
to the people of Wilmot for their hos
pitaliry.

LIGHTNING AT THE NORMAL.

The most violent thunder storm ex-
perienced in this locality IL years visited
US yesterday morning. There was COM
parativelY bit little wind but the rain
was very heavy for over an hour. In
the midst of the tempest several terrific
peals of thunder, each followed immedi-
ately after the flash, indicated that the
lightning had struck in the near vicinity
After the storm the news circulated
rapidly that the Normal School build
ing had been struck. AS there were
about 800 students there at the time the
report created marked sensation and
wonder and rejoicing were mingled when
it was learned that not one of the num-
Der had been harmed seriously. The
bolt struck the spire on the tower and
split piece off the side. Considerable
damage was done to the blinds in the
tower and the shingles were ripped off
the roof in two directions. The pas
sage of the electric fuih down through
the building was not easily traced. but
tie bricks were cracked and displaced
near the roof or the south side. The
whele building seemed charged with
electricity and three yonng lady students
who were drying there feet at stove in
the lower story we're roughly tumbled
around for moment. They say that it
seemed as if ball Of fire came out of
the stove. For time confusion reigned
supreme in the usual abiding place of
order, but when is was found that Lo
one was injured the excitement Gained
down. It will probably cost the insur-
ance companies $3.50 or $500 to make the
damage to the building good White

x. A. Willard, editor of the Depart-
ment of Dairy Husbandry of Moor's

entitled "Wiliard's Practical Butter
Book" tells how the celebrated Phila~
delphia Butter is made, as follows f:
The celebrated Phllade phla butter
comes mainly from Chester, Lancaster
and Delaware counties, Pennsylvania.
The spring house is about Is by "a feet
built Of stone, with its foundation set
deeply in the hillside. the floor being
about four feet below the level of the
ground at the down-hill side. The floor
is of oak, laid on sand or gravel; this is
flowed with spring water to the depth
of three inches, and at this height the
flowing water passes out into tank at
the lower side of the spring house. The
milk; when drawn from the cows, is
strained into deep pans which are set in
the water upon the oaken floor. Raised
platforms or walks sre provided in the
room for convenience in handling the
milk. The walls OF the spring house
arc about ten feet high, and at the top
on each side are windows covered with
wire cloth for ventilation. The depth
of the milk in the pans is about three
inches, and the howlcg water which sur
rounds the pans maintains temperature
of about $50 Fab.
The milk il skinned after standing
"a hours, and the cream is put into deep
vessels having capacity of about 10
gallons. It Is kept at . temperature of
