DEATH OF JUDGE CONNOLLY p. TRIGG,
UNITED STATES JUDGE IN TENNESSEE AND
A NATIVE.
Correspondence OF the Richmond Dispatch.l
BRIsT0L-GOODsON, April %, 1880.
Hon. Connolly f. Trigg, one OF the
United States district judges for Tennessee.
died at 7 O'Clock this Sunday evening in
Bristol, aged seventy years. He was a
native OF Abingdon, Va, where he has
many relatives now living. Was appointed
district judge by President Lincoln in
1868, and while Republican in principle.
yet he has shown in all his judicial career a
kindness to our people which greatly en-
deared him to those with whom lie differed
politically. lie leaves a wife and two
daughters and very large connexion to
mourn their loss. His remains will be carried
to Abingdon for lnterment.
The weather is now warm, with frequent
showers, and the prospect for good crop
of wheat is fine. Farmers are busy plant
ing corn, and large crop Of tobacco will
be planted. The tobacco.plants bid fair to
be abundant. BORDER.

lFor the Dispatcn.1
The Public schools.

The people of Richmond are largely in
favor OF supporting the public schools to
the fullest extent; yet support for the
schools has constantly decreased. Retreuch-
ment has been carried to the point OF very
poor economy. Between one and two thou
sand children have been unjuStly kept out
for want OF school accommodations and
more teachers. Besides those who have
been excluded great numbers have been
kept from applying because it was known
there was no use.
Lately, when there was surplus in the
city treasury, an app: opriation OF $4,000
for school buildings was rot passed, but
was referred to the Finance Committee,
where it seems likely to remain. At the
same time, directly after, $4,000 or more
was appropriated to volunteer companies.
We do not oppose proper appropriations to
volunteer companies, but an ounce OF pre-
vention is worth pound Of cure; and one
way to have an orderly community is 10
elevate the masses by proper training and
education.
The record shows pulling down instead
OF building up the schools, while other de.
partments receive full appropriation.
Then, in comparison with other places,
DIR. Rutfner has given statistics showing
/ tuat RlcnDOuu Is giving icoS tnau otbci
cities OF Virginia and other States. His
| statistics did not include interest on build.
ings already put up, as has been supposed
by some writer, and IL is not usual to in
cIude 1t. The yearly sum given to the Uni
versity OF Virginia by the State is never I'M
derstood to have anything to do with the
interest on its buildings. The two mills on
dollar given yearly in Portsmouth is en-
tirely outside of the interest on the build.
ings already put up.
1t is believ d, however, that yearly city
school tax OF two mills on dollar would be
sufficient for all purposes. present and fu-
ture. More than this is given in other
places.
| 1t is folly to be blind to an emergency
until too late. We repeat that between one
and two thousand children have been un-
Justly kept out OF the shoots. The commu-
nifty, when fully aroused, win, as they have
done in other places, compel a full support
OF the schools, and it will be better for all
parties TO make the record good IN this re-
speet without delay. OBSERVER.
