CAUGHT AT LAST.
Followed Through Five States
and Hunted Down at Last.

J. NJ Richardson, of Winchester, ar
rived in Nashville last Thursday, having
in custody VIM. Weems, who, it will
be remembered, murdered his wife
about one and half miles south of
GreenevilIe, 10Th of June, 1876. Mrs.
Weems had been married about eight
months, when she instituted suit for
divorce Pending the suit a child was
born, which w GEMS sought to take from
his wife. In the trial for the possession
of the child Weems threatened that if
the Judge decided against him he would
kill the mother. 1t was placed in her
custody. Weems secreted himself in q
clump of trees, and when his wife came
along he deliberately shot her in the
head with pistol he had previously OBJ
tanned from a citizen of GreeneVille,
killing her instantly, and Immediately
fed. A reward of seven hundred dol
lars was offered for his apprehension.
For the past seven or eight months
Richardson has been constantly on his
trail, following him through North
Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Illinois
and Kentucky, finally capturing him at
Tompklnsville, Monroe county, Ken
lucky Weems made some resistance at
first but finally give up. He is power
full built man and is regarded as a des-
perado. The Nashville american says
that when brought to that city he did
not deny that he killed his wife. He
wore only shirt and pair of jeans
pantaloons and attracted a great deal of
attention at the Battle House by his con-
tinued restlessness and the hUmming of
tunes. Mrs Weems was a daughter of
Lee Bullen, Esq, a highly respected
citizen of Greene county. Richardson,
however, SO far as careful inquiry of the
conductors of the railroad could elicit,
has not yet passed this point. We hope
our Nashville contemporary is not in err
ror in the matter.

scenery have made their island home q

Irving, who was long sojourner in that
land, and with the scenes of which some
of his most delightful sketches are as
ISOLATED, g that the Englishman gives
scope to his natural feelings. Hebreaks
loose gladly from the cold formalities
and negative civiIities of town; throws
off his habits of shy reserve, and be-
come joyous and free hearted. He
manages TO collect around him all the
eonveniencies and elegancies of polite
life, and to Danish its restraints. His
country seat abounds with every re-
quisite either for studious retirement,
tasteful qualification, or rural exercise"
Again; the residence of people of
fortune and refinement in the country
has diffused degree of taste and ele-
gance in rural economy that descends
to the lowest class. The very laborer,
with his matched cottage and narrow
slip of ground attends to their e1nbel
lishment. The trim hedge, the grass
plot befole the door, the little flOWer-bed
bordered with snug bcx, the wood-bine
trained up against the wall, and hang
ing it's blossoms over the lattice, the pot
of flowers in the window, the holly
providently planted about the house to
cheat winter of its dreariness, and to
throw semblance of green summer to
cheer the fireside; all these bespeak the
influence of taste, flowing down from
high sources and pervading the lowest
| levels of the public mind.
The time spent on Mr.. Dickinson's
estate was too brief for minute observa-
ton, or to allow the collection of details
of plans and their execution; but it was
sufficiently long to learn that he had
| done much in the increase of the pro-
ductive power of the soil and in en-
bellishing the face of the earth. We be-
held as luxuriant red-clover as we ever
saw; most beautiful and promising fields
of the smaller cereals, broad acres of
thoroughly plowed and artistically laid
off plantations of Indian corn, recently
seeded, extensive, highly cultivated and
luxuriant gardens. In the midst of all,
| the charming rural elegance of pointed
prospects, diversified surface, winding
ways, entangled walks and broad ave-
nues, outrageous groves, undulating
curves, murmuring waters, here stag
mating and there glimmering in the last
rays of evening, tasteful foliage and
lovely flowers. In short, an agricultural
establishment and gentleman's country
seat, which, when fully matured and
mellowed by the sober tints of little
time, will present prototype verify o.
the study of every one whose happiness
it is to be farmer, and of which it is t.
be hoped the country will be enriched
and adorned with many copies.

nrorristown Female High school.

e CAAA1SAS2A-AA . A Os@AAOOAs
From time to time we have called the
especially of our local readers,
to this Institution, and have intimated
that our young city might lose the SER
vices of Professors Summers, Lowry and /
Dillworth, the Principals, if more
decided and friendly course toward
the school on their part was not In
dictated. The school has been always
prosperous; but not to the extent it
should have been, nor to the extent is
could be with an effort on the part of
those of our town who can so easily
control and shape its destiny for good,
if they will only try. We believe there
is too much public spirit in our town to
justify the fear that such an effort will
not be made. As a general thing the
business men and the citizens of Nor
ristown are liberal and generous, and
have pride in the advantages their town
possesses for educational and CONNER
cial advancement. So our countymen,
those who have daughters to educate,
we believe can be induced TO educate
them here in preference to sending them
from home The session ends June H.
We hope that Professors Summers,
Lowry and Dillworth will find sufficient
encouragement to remain, perma-
nently. But we know that each one of
them has had strong inducements re-
Gently offered to take them from us.
Our people we believe will not permit
this, by merton on their part. Three
better teachers than Summers, Lowry
and Dillworth no town in our State has
They are endorsed and respected by the
| best educators in the country. The
students, large and small, praise and
love them. But the praise of the chill
dren, and the public and the press will
not justify them in laboring in the
school room as they do, without they
receive for their labor a substantial en-
dorsement in dollars and cents. So,
now, let us of Morristown and Hamblen
county, go to work and by cooperation
in the objects they have before them,
encourage Professors Summers, Lowry
and Dillworth to remain with US, and
give vigor to the efforts they will put
forth by this friendship on our part, to
perpetuate more successfully the Insti-
tuition they have struggled so hard to
rear in our town. We repeat, three
better, more competent teachers car
not be found; and it is simply a waste
of words to argue the advantages to us,
as community, if we keep up this old
landmark, and the depreciation of oul
merchants sales and our real estate, i
we let it die. We will not let it die mol
even languish. 1t is 50 natural for US K
believe that which we want to believe
that believing is falkland faith &C
complishes what it desires. For tel
years it has been one of the leading In
situations of East Tennessee. 1t would
certainly be a great mistake after having
sustained it through years of unprece
dented financial pressure to permit it t.
fail for want of material support just a
prosperity begins to dawn upon oul
people.

var cry. The needle guns falling
from the hands Of the slafn were
seized by the new corners, and the
Russian advance, shattered and re-
pulsed, withdrew. and the onslaught
ended in disastrous defeat. Be-
tween four and FIVE Thousand Rus
SLAMS were left dead and wounded in
the rugged hills between Bat0um and
the Russian line. and the roadways
and woods were strewn with arms,
equipments. and every substantial
token of victory. 81 f
Emboldened by this triumph, the
Turks have redoubled their forces
in Batoum and Erzeroum. Trans.
ports from Constantinople are
arriving daily with men, supplies,
Krupp cannon, and American re-
peaters. The Turks promise to
have in the field, covering Kars, Err
zeroum. and Batoum, half a million
of men by the middle of June to
confront the Russians. while in the
rear, on the Circassian coast and
far island, guerilla bands of disaf.
fected Circassians are to cut the
lines Of communication and harass
the rear. To counteract this serious
maneuver She Russians have already
detat ched- a large part of the army
of invasion to act as an army OF oc-
cupation, and the Asiatic campaign
has assumed for the time being q
position of suspended development.
The Russians are unable to advance
and the Turks are only able to de.
fend. The latter are inspired with
fanatic confidence by the Batoum
victory and the effective operations
of the Turkish fleet. The English
admiral, Hobart Pasha, has been
put in command of an expedition to
the Black sea, and pledges himself
to capture Odessa and compel the
Russians TO suspend all forward

ner there.

nooga at 4:50 a. m.
No. 4, eastern-bound " rat - will
leave Chattanooga at 5:45 p. m, take
supper at Cleveland; arriving there at
7:13, arrive at Knoxville at 1927, and
reach Bristol at 4:05 a. m.
1t will be seen that by this arrange
ment much faster time is made by all
the trains, the schedule going west being
about two hours faster, and going east
about one hour, which will be an aver
age of about twenty-five miles per hour
Close connections will be made at
Chattanooga with all Southern aud
Western lines by all trains, and also at
Bristol in the same way. This schedule
brings this line in successful competi-
ton with all others, connecting New
York, Washington, etc., with the South
and West, from one fact that under it
from New York to Memphis and the
West, via Knoxville, Chattanooga, etc.
the time will be about the same as by
Western route, and to New Orleans via
Atlanta the time viii be shorter than by
the Augusta line. BY this arrangement
passengers leaving New York at o.
clock in the afternoon will reach Knox
vile at half-past twelve the second
night, making the trip in about so hours.
Passengers can also leave Knoxville at
half past eight in the forenoon and
Nashville at night or Memphis the next
morning at half-past four. We congra-
tulate the management and the travellers
that they have Tom Cain to furnish the
supper at this place. That satisfaction
will be given we guarantee.

e Abiding to the melancholy
death of Mr.. G.. Leet, who was re-
Gently killed on the Nashville and
Chattanooga Railroad, the Tribune
and Age publishes these interesting
facts He had one sister and an aged
mother who were dependent upon
him for their support, and no broth
er and son we're truer in this respect
than he. To make them comfort
able as possible and to secure to
them a competency for life, he de-
termined, out of his daily earnings,
to buy farm and to put them on it,
intending, as we learn. to quit the
road on the 1st of September next
and retire with them to his rural
home. He purchased and paid for
the farm, but death deprived him of
enjoying his rural home. At the
time Of his death q marriage engage
ment existed between himself and a
most beautiful and accomplished
young lady of Virginia, the nuptial
ceremony being fixed for September
I'd. These are sad thoughts.
