State AppUintsnets To she. University Of
Tennessee.


State Appointments To she, University of
A - Tennessee.
We publish below. list of the State
appointments, and ofthe vacancies, in
the University Of Ten nessee. The
large number of vacancies will attract
attention. More than half Of the APP
% intments to which the State is en-
titled ale left unified, and the State
loses, to that extern, the direct and re-
mote benefits of the institution. 1t is
to be hoped that the increased interest
10 the University, la ely manifest IN
so many gratifying forms, will soon
show itselfiu an increasing number OF
State appointments. We earnestly
ak the attention of the members of
the Legislature to tbi. subject.
AT the same time. it must be said
that the members Of the Legislature
are not alone responsible for the va
cancies. The absence, up to this time,
of ANY systematic mode Of appoints
ment and OF any msaus of arousing
local interest in the University still
more, perhaps, the want of adequate
school prepaTatiOn-have been the
chief obstacles. This state of things
will now be ubviated by the opera ion
of the State Cadet Ac., passed by the
last Legislature. Thls Will secure the
co OPERATION of the school officers
through ut the State, and will arouse
ia the schools an interest in the
University, which thus becomes an In.
Iegral part of The Public school sy stem.
1t will insure, by competitive exami~
nation, higher grade OF preparation,
and by the Information secured and
reported to the members of the Legis-
lature, will enable them to make the
best appointments, throughout their
districts. Already the fruits of this
wise enactment are seen this year.
From its future opera ion the best re-
suits may be locked for, to the Uni
versity and to the State.
