that it cannot possibly command
too much attention. Rev. 7. De-
Witt Talmage, in his sermon on
Sunday, July 18th says:

the republic or the despollsm, the
baybarism or the civilization, the
upbuilding of an empire or the
overlhrowing Of it. Higher than
Parliament or Congress are the

tion of carrying concealed weapons.
JAS. NJ. Arnold, of Columbus, Miss.
Judge Arnold deserves great cred
it Tor this tribute. The entire ad-
dress shows that he has diligently
and thoroughly investigated our
educational condition, and the sug-
gestions made in regard TO our
Free School system, are we'll worth
the attention of all interested
in first class schools.
? Tennessee is greatly worked up
on the subject, as can be seen by
reference TO Tuesdays Avalanche.
Almost every county was repre-
senied at the Normal School in
Knoxville. A synopsis is given Of
a speech delivered by Gen Eaton,
u. S. Commissioner of lucation.
