from a circular, is State Superintendent
TroJsdale Of Tennessee.
Ire President of the Association, VIM.
7. Harris, Superintendent Of the St. Louis
schools, attended the Inter State COnven-
tiOn at Chattanooga recently, and took a
prominent part in the work for which it
was called. Col. TrOUsdale has expressed
his intention of going to the meeting of the
National Association. He will read a
paper on the Educational Necessities of
the South and favor the policy of deVOting
the proceeds Of the public lands to the
maintenance of the free schools through
out the country. The theme is well Sc
lected, and if we don't mistake our man,
he will press the claims Of the South TO
equity's farthest limit-a thing that the
country seems now prepared 10 hear.
We notice that Georgia will be repre-
scented in the person of Prof. w. Leroy

WE learn through the Albany
Argus that q painful account of the
ex-Empress Charlotte, of Mexico, is
given by the Brussels papers. Her
physical health is good, but her
mental condition is hopeless. She
lives in constant communication
with imaginary beings, and disli kes
the presence Of any living person.
She speaks only when compelled to
do so, and gives orders to her attend
ants in writing. She dresses herself
without permitting assistance, takes
a fixed walk in the park every
morning when fine, frequently
plays on the piano forte, and some
times draws and paints with de-
cidod taste. She recognizes no Wis
itors, not even her brother, King
Leopold, or the queen. Tho latter
always accompanies the physician
on his monthly visits, when, in
reply to his inquiries rs to her
health, the empress replies that she
is well, and Immediately rctires.
She has become stouter, and shows
a tendency to corpulency, but at
present it is stated that this has
only increased her beauty, which is
now truly striking.

pens that decision made upon the

Anoka county, Minnesota. The
Dutchman was seeking to reach a
town some distance from Sank
Creek, and to accomplish this must
drive over the prairie from the lat

to the road, and night overlook him
with his vehicle fast in slough and
no town in sight. He sought the
solitary farm house visible, and
asked permission to stay till morn

however, that it would be necces-
rary for him to sleep with the chill
dren, or with the farmer himself, as
their accommodations were limited.
Quick as lightning, the Dutchman
expressed his qgsolution not to sleep

he slept with the farmer. The rest

lives, and gave three cheers for her,
In response to these Miss Julia, the
only daughter of the immortal
Stonewall, came out and presented
both companies with a bouquet,
after which. upon returning to
camp, each of the companies fired
salute in honor IF the widow of the
widow of the Christian hero. The
Newbern band and fire company
called also, and gave three cheers
for Mrs. Jackson. They, too, were
presented with flowers by Miss
Julia, after which the fremen were
received by and shook hands with
Mrs. Jackson. They spent a few
moments in the parlor, looking at
large portrait of the general, then
silently departed, many of them
wiping away the fast falling tears.
