River Items.

The river is falling slowly at this
point with about six feet ON shoals.
The Silverthorn has changed her
day and will hereafter pass down
Thursday night. She was behind
time this trip and was expected
down last night. The Nashville
was also due down last night. The
Eddyville will go down Sunday
morning. Hillman is due up Mon
day night. The Anderson is very
prompt on her advertised time, and
is one of the best boats on the river.
Receipts of freight by river have
been very good during this week,
consisting mostly of hay, oats and
tobacco. Receipts of tobacco from
Monday morning to Friday by river
were ia hhds. Boats continue to
carry full loads of corn up, though
they report it getting scarce in the
lower part of the river.
Clarksville weekly chronicle. (Clarksville, Tenn.) 1873-1890, 1878-02-16

We have been taking another
walk around the public schools and
have much satisfaction in saying
that every thing now is working
like clockwork. Every desk, in
every school, is full and every teach
er and every scholar knows exactly
what he has to do, and when and
where, and he does it exactly then
and there without any fuss about it.
1t is wonderful, the saving of time
and especially of wear and and tear
III patience and temper which this
precision secures to both teacher
and scholar; and the only way to
secure this unity of purpose is to
have superintendent who knows
his business and does it. The time
alone saved by it is worth the time
of the additional teacher.
The loss of time in passing from
school to school alone, where there
is no unity of system, is much more
than would be paid for by the Su-
perintendent's salary. Who that
has taught school or sent children
to school is ignorant that the first
six months, in a new school, is lost
time or even a falling back? The
books are new, the discipline is new,
the method of teaching is new, and
by the time the scholar is familiar
with the new system he has lost
many of the very best of his school
days. But under a good Superin-
tendent all is uniformity. In pas
sing from one grade to another, the
scholar finds himself advancing
along exactly the same path as he
was before, the same rules, thesame
method, only the books a little
more advanced, and no time is lost.
We have dwelt on this point be-
cause we understand that there are
still among our people men who
think the superintendent office
superfluity. To abolish it would be
a most mistaken economy.

PastiIe POrtraiture.

Among the beautiful works which
Mr.. Stringer has executed in Clarks-
vile may be mentioned a very sweet
portrait in pastile of Mr.. Rexinger's
little girl. This is at present at the
Postoffice, where it may be seen by
the public. Drawing in pastile is
similar in its general effect to cray
on, with the addition, however, of
color to the light and shade, which
is alone achievable by means of the
crayon. In competent hands the
pastile is capable of achieving effects
in color more brilliant than those
attainable in either oil or water
color, and as the specimen we have
spoken of is mastery example of
the handling of this material, our
people will examine it with interest,
as it is not often they have an OPP
pOrtunity of observing this form of
art in the hands of an artist.

The murphy Increment.

Much, and we believe healthy,
agitation has existed in GAINESVILLE
this week on the subject of Tenn
perance. This state of public feel
ing has been mainly occasioned by
the very eloquent and earnest adj
dresses of Mr.. Wenzell, and a very
large number in all classes and of
every age have come up torenounce,
publicly, the use of alcoholic liquors
as beverage. This step has been
by no means confined to habitual
drunkards, but many have come
forward convinced that such mode
rate indulgence as they have per-
mitted themselves has been preju-
dicial either to their associates or
to society general. Great public
benefit, we think, cannot possibly
fail to arise from this movement,
and, while multitudes have joined
the organization, its moral influence
will, we believe, reach many who
have not Joined it. Men have been
led to reconsider their conduct and,
we trust, to modify it by the search
ing appeals which have been made
to their conscience, especially in
reference to the effects of their ex-
ample, even when indulgence may
threaten no evil consequences to
themselves, individually; and we
hope to see public and organized
combination to resist and control
the tendencies which always beset
society in the direction of intern
perance. For the present we pro-
pose to leave this matter in the
able hands which are now directing
it, but we hope in future papers to
to suggest some special fields for
to any who may have
had their consciences quickened by
the eloquent appeals which they
have heard.
The movement has our hearty
endorsement, and if we have not
ourselves donned the blue ribbon,
we may hereafter give reasons why
we prefer to give our own eXertiOns
to the cause in a different method.
