The county court did itself credit yester-
day in electing to the important position of
superintendent of public instruction for
Knox county, Prof. w. c. Gibbs, of Graves
ton Prof. Gibbs is a native of Knox county,
and has been thoroughly and emphatically
identified with educational interests from
his youth up He was educated first, after
leaving the common schools, at Emory and
Henry College, and afterwards at the Uni
versity of Tennessee, from which institu-
ton he graduated with honors, He
is now 43 years of age, and has been almost
constantly in the school-room, either as
pupil or instructor for twenty-five years or
more, and is scholar of ripeness and ex-
perience. He has made our public school
system close study for years, and IS
thoroughly posted in the requirements OF
the position of superintendent. He en-
cages in the educational work from natu-
raj liking for it, more than for the remunera-
ton. He is now engaged in school at
Graveston, which will be out IN
a few weeks, after which he viii
devote his entire time and attention
to the work, and we shall be greatly sur
prised if the standard of our schools is not
greatly elevated by his proficient work and
methods.
Prof. Gibbs is a conscientious Christian
gentleman, member of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, and is man of family.
He is a Republican, but has never taken
any active part in politics.
Knoxville daily chronicle. [volume] (Knoxville, Tenn.) 1870-1882, 1881-04-20

there was a freer ballot, fairer
count and more independent voting
in the South than existed IN that
great Commonwealth.
Mr.. Cameron, of Pennsylvania
said that the minority of the Senate
had arrogated to itself the right to
control the action of lawfully con-
stituted majority. Was not the ma
iority alone responsible for whatever
course it might deem advisable to
persue. The Republicans were COM
petent to take care of their own =
fairs without the guardianship of the
Democratic party. 1t requires no
metaphors or figures of tone to en-
abe the people to understand the
action of the Democrats. It was
simply a repetition, in different
form, of the shot gun-policy (the So
called Mississippi plan) which had
proved so successful in many
States south of the Mason and
Dixon line. They wanted to
inaugurate the same policy in the
Senate of the United States. he
did not believe the people would
submit to it. Ii the gentlemen on
the other side wanted the South to
be prosperous, they must cease this
mode of warfare. The South would
never rise to higher plane as long
as intimidation and social ostracism
was allowed to prevail.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Gamer
on's speech, various roll-calls were
had on dilatory motions, and at 4 p
NJ, on motion of Mr.. Dawes, the
Senate adjourned.

SOUTHERN PRESCRIPTION.
How Mr.. Heath was treated in Lou
isiana, as Related by Himself.


Boston, MASS, April 19.-The Ad-
vertiser publishes a lengthy states
ment from Charles Heath, now
residing at Maiden, in this State,
and who is the person referred 10 by
Senator Dawes in recent Senate
debate as having his property in
the South destroyed by an incendiary
fire. Heath's plantation is about
1000 acres in extent, and was in
Caldwell parish, on the Ourichita
river, ten miles below Columbia, La.
Heath states that he, with his
brother, who is New Orleans mer-
chant, bought the place thirteen or
fourteen years ago, and had estab-
ished upon it Clubhouse, grist-
mill and repair shops, fitted up with
improved machinery. For several
years they ran the place under white
overseers and were not seriously
interfered with by their neighbors.
The first difficulty that occurred
there, Heath States, was along in
1877 or 1878, and was on account of
the decision that we would not en-
ploy white men as overseers. From
that time, as the statement Intimates,
Heaths troubles began. His neigh
bors and others accused him Of a
Willingness to divide his land with
negroes, and avowed their deter
mlnation to prevent it. Various
troubles, In which the negroes on his
place were maitreated III many ways,
are recounted IN the statement but
Heath says he got along very well
until last Christmas. Upon the
night of Christmas his whole place
Was burned up. He says the place,
with the improvements, was worth
S25,OUO. They burned up my
tools, wagons, grist>mill, blacksmith
shops-everythlng, clean. I got out
about S4OO or $500 worth of goods
III about twenty minutes we had to
work in, and we came within an ace
of being burned up alive. The only
thing that saved US was the wind
blew the flames away from the build.
ing In which we were sleeping.
Heath's statement alleges that q
series of outrages were perpetrated
upon negroes in the parish where
he was located. He said he was
assured by his friends, some of whom
are strong Democrats, that he had
gotten into the worst part of The
State. Heath says he shall go back
to New Orleans, where he has real
estate, this fall. The negroes who
arc on his plantation pay him for his
land ard the mules employed by
them. His brother went to New
Orleans in 1913, has been for long
time merchant there and was
mayor of the city by Gen, Sherman
Heath says the firing of his place
was not alluded to in the papers
and he made no secret in New Orr
leans of his disposition to investigate
the outrage.

DaLarnetta Acquitted.

DANv1LLE, Va, April 19.-The
trial of Thomas DeJarnette, for the
murder of his sister, was concluded
at noon. The jury, after retire
ment Of twenty minutes, brought in
q verdict of not guilty, because of in
sanity at the time he committed the
act. After the verdict was an-
nounced there was a demonstration
of applause in the courtroom, which
was promptly suppressed by the ser
geant. The verdict seems to meet
! the approval of the community pref
ty generally. The prisoner was re
manded to jail to await further action

that owing to the prevailing wester>

weeks, may elapse before she arrives
without necessarily causing any

The gem of the service was the "Res-

never in better voice, and rendered this ex-
traordinarily fine piece of music with a
sweetness and power which was truly en-
chanting and elected the warmest encomi-
ums from her many friends.
The chancel was elaborately and taste
fully bedecked about with plant and floral
decorations, giving the church a cheerful
and pleasant appearance. An appropriate
| and interesting sermon was preached by
Rev. Fl. II. Morrell the rector.
A very attractive service took place at 4
o'clock in the afternoon, it being the chill
dren's Easter celebration, and the church
was crowded The decorations were very
handsome, the inscription He is Risen "
| appearing in flowers, and a large butterfly
was formed by contributions of flowers from
members of each class. The exercises were
conducted by Prof. A. Ruth, superintendent
of the school.

Some of the Churches.
Easter Sunday is an occasion of special
interest in most of the churches, especially
as regards the music used in the service.
The celebrations of the Savior's resurrection
are more notable in the Episcopal and Cath
olic churches than in those of any other de-
nomination, and they furnish some extraor-
dinary music.
ST. JOINS EPISCOPAL CHURCH
Was attended by large congregation Sun
day morning to witness and hear the Easter
service. and it was truly musical treat,
much enjoyed by all. The quartette choir
of this church consists of Mr.. VIM. Baxter,
tenor; Mrs Alvin Barton, soprano; Miss
Ella Wicks, alto !; Mr.. Alvin Barton, bass
and, with Mrs. j. A. Quaife, presiding with
great skill at the organ, constitutes choir
which has few superiors in the land. All
are musicians of very high order, and
they are thoroughly trained, and render
music that is absolutely faultless. Mr..
Baxter being absent from the city Mr.. Chas
Seymour, who is an excellent tenor, filed
the vacancy quite acceptably.
We give list of the principal features of
the music, as follows:
