Dol Bates.

.As we mentioned at the time,
Dol Bates was convicted by
the Circuit Court at Smithville,
at its last term, Of murder in
the first degree. He applied for
a new trial and his counsel was
successful. The Nashville Ban
ner says:
Dol Bates is occupying his
old cell in the county Jail. He
complains bitterly on account
of his not being allowed to give
bail, but is confident that he
will be cleared at his next trial.
When he was convicted in the
Circuit Court at Smithville last
week his attorney entered mo-
ton for a new trial, on account
of incompetency of one Of the
jurymen. The argument on
the motion was continued from
day to day until last Monday,
when Bates counsel read quite
a formidable array of deposit
tions, in which it appeared that
B. S. Turner, one Of he jury
men, had expressed himself to
various parties on the subject of
Bates guilt, always condemning
him. 1t was further shown that
Turner had separated himself
from the rest of the jury, unac-
companied by an officer and out
of sight of the other jurors.
The contest of the attorneys on
both sides was quite warm, but
the Judge finally decided that
the motion for a new trial should
be sustained, and it was gran
ted.

pa With regret VIC read the
following paragraph from the
Pulaski Citizen. We had a
hope, strengthened by a partial
promise, that Prof. Werlen
would again make Fayetteville
his home; but, it seems that we
are to be disappointed, and we
can only say that we hope that
his removal to the far South will
prove to him advantageous. He
is a worthy gentleman, teacher
Of music Of superior ability, and
we can cordially commend him
to the favor of good people
wherever he may locate
at is with regret that We an
nounce that It's the purpose of
Prof. S. +. Werrcn, The efficient
teacher of music at Martin col
lc9e, TO leave us about Christ
mas. His brief sojourn of q
year among us has won for him
many friends, and his overflow
ing class at the college demon
strates the esteem in which he
is held as q teacher. There is
not a more thorough, faithful
ard industrious teacher to be
found anywhere, and his depar-
ture Will be greatly regretted
by his patrons and friends. He
has just remained long enough
for the fruits Of his labors to be-
come visible, and in some cases
martcd, to both parents and pu-
pills. Besides he is a gentleman
of refinement, education and So
cial worth = classical in his
tastes and attainments--being a
graduate of the highest school
Of the Swiss government, and a
member of one of the best fam
lies. He goes hence to Calves
ton, Texas, to join his elder
brother in conducting a CLASH
cal and literary school for young
men, of which he is the pl-inci-
pal. We wish him all the sue
cess he merits.

fallen on us in one short week.
Rev. Mr.. Orman, Of the Fay.
Dis. Tenn. Con-, was among us
a few days last week and preach
ed four good sermons for us
two at Mt. Nebo and two at this
place. lie complained of not
having the spirit of preaching,
but the best judges say that his
efforts were good enough for
them. To cay the least Of it, a
man setting fire to big brush
heap and retiring under the
glare of the fire without being
seen, displays tact enough to
frame a sermon of the highest
order.
a few days later Rev. Mr..
Staw, late Missionary TO Egypt,
came among us and delivered
two interesting lectures respect
ing that far-off country. We
were pleased with the man as
well as with his speeches. There
is much of the pure metal and
clear ring about him. lie is
PLAIN, chaste and highly culti-
waited, so much so that people
far below him, intellectually,
readily conclude that he is SIM
ply the equal of common people.
We are not writing the history
Of Mr.. Staw, nor blowing him,
as the manner of some is, but
our main idea is to impress the
flashing, glittering, half-culti-
waited that outside show is but
a very small part of the make
up of a truly great man.
This is the light-now the
shadow. About twenty-five
persons, great and email, have
just left for Texas. The fami-
ly relations of these were such
as to cast a shadow over the
hearts of nearly every family
here in the separation. Our lii
tie town wears, for the time, a
rather sad and forsaken aspect.
Parents feel that perhaps ties
have been severed for all time,
and that really the happiest
days in the family are when the
children are prattling around
them in their infancy. But
they are gone, yes, gone to Tex
as, a country far from this; but
they went accompanied with our
prayers and good counsel and
good wishes. Some of them
may read this imperfect article
in the places where they may
stop in the far West and call
to mind the last time we met in
the Sunday school in this place.
