From a letter received here yesterday
from resident of Alexandria, and dated
the 22d inst, we are enabled to CLEAN the
facts attending n terrible tragedy, which
occurred in the mountain Businesses of
Dekalb County, last Thursday. 1t seems
that Rome Goodner, Deputy United
States Marshal, who was engaged in fer
reting out Illicit distilleries, accompanied
by John Bradley and Samuel Brown,
started out on a raid. While returning
the trio were fired upon by party of un-
known men, and Goodner and Bradley
were wounded Brown assisted them to
the nearest house. and Immediately start
ed in search of a doctor While on his
way he was fired upon three times, but
escaped uniniured. lie returned the fire,
and succeeded in killing one of the as
saulting party Instantly.
Goodner's wounds are serious. as the
contents of the weapons entered his bow
els. He Is not expected to live. Bradley
sustained wound in his hand, but will
be all right in few days.
w. GOodner, a brother of the wounded
man, went in pursuit of the attacking
party, but at last accounts had not re-
turncd.-NaShUiike Banner 24th.

An Encouraging Meeting OF the Teach.
ers' Association.


The State Teachers Association met
at 10 o'clock Wednesday morning in
the State Library at the Capitol, and
was called to order by DIR. J. b. Linds~
ley, President of the Association.
Mr.. J. l.. Weakley, the Secretary of
the Association, submitted his report,
which was received and ordered to be
filed.
The following named members were
appointed by the President as the Me-
mortal Committee: Neil S. Brown,

Mr.. Fleming not being able to be

A. B. Marburg offered the following
resolution:

Dr. B. Sears, of Virginia, agent OF
the Peabody Fund, spoke as to the i'm
portance Of retaining the system of
Superintendent as at present existing.
If these offices are abolished, he had
but little doubt, the Peabody Fund
would in future be withheld from Ten
nessee. The directors of that fund
would be unwilling to aid State that

earnestly hoped that the Legislature
would not make hurtful Interference
with the present system Of education.
The resolution was advocated by Mr..
II, Presnell, of Washington county,
and Rev. DIR. VIM. Shelton, of David
son. Messrs. c. w. Calender, OF
Sumner county, Rankin, of Greene
county, John II. Dean, OF Bedford
county, and w. r. Garrett, of Giles
county, expressed similar views.
Mr.. Garrett moved to amend the
resolution of Mr.. Marburg by insert
ing the words land that we favor the
maintenance of the present system, as
"A matter of economy"
The resolution as amended was
adopted.
In the aftertoon session quite num-
Der of Legislators and prominent citi-
zens addressed the Association.
Hon. Henry Gibson said he had not
yet heard any member of the General
Assembly express an unfriendly senti-
ment towards the present system-had
not heard of any member who was in
favor of using the pruning knife
against the sacred work of education.
Instead of this, the General Assembly
was disposed to foster and encourage
the system of common schools as at
present existing in the State.
