One Case OF Smallpox Creates a Wild
AIarnl-SnOw and Cotton.
From an Appeal Correspondent

From an Appeal Correspondence
MILAN, Tenn, December 31.-Consider-
able alarm apd uneasiness has been reated
in the country by the wild rumors OF small
pox in our town. Only one case has been re-
ported to our city authorities as yet within
the corporate limits, and our authorities and
Board of Health have taken prompt and
efficient measures to prevent any further
spread of the disease in or near town. About
the 5th instant negro named Charlie Bell
came to Milan from Cairo with a we'll
developed case of smallpox. He went to
several places in town, remaining some
length of time at each place. He then left
town and went TO his relatives, three and a
half miles northeast of town. Last
Saturday, the I'D instant, several cases
were reported from the house in which
his relatives live. Since that time there
have been reported from that neighbOrhood
tweleve or fourteen cases, three of which
have proved fatal. Only one case has
occurred in Milan, or nearer than three miles
and half from town. This case was negro
woman, and was at once removed to house
one-half mile west of town, entirely isolated
from the rest of the community. We antic-
ipate no danger from the spread of 1t In
town or country, although all precautions are
being taken to prevent its further spreading.
We had the first snowfall yesterday, and
only a slight fall then. Our people are
cheerful, have plenty to do for another year,
except in a few instances, and Heaven seems
to have favored US in sending US the mildest
winter ever known this latitude. The bulk
of the cotton crop is in and sold. Only a. few
OF our people are holding for better
prices Taxes are nearly all paid, more
nearly paid up, in fact, than at any period
since the war.
VIII you please publish daily reports Of
the receipts Of cotton for January, 1880, in
connection with the publishing of the daily
reports for 1881 and 1882? 1t will enable us
to more nearly and speedily arrive at the

The Trustees Still Pecking AT Each
Osher-SomethtngA About Mr.. Col
lier's Admin ration.

The School Board fight is raging as Bit
terly rs ever, and it is being waged against
Superintendent Collier by some on the
ground that he is incompetent. The public
ought to be informed upon this question.
Mr.. Collier taught school for ten years, and
such an experience can hardly have rem
dered him incompetent. 1t has been stated
against him that the expenses of the schools
are greater than they ever were before. One
OF the opponents of the superin-
tendent had the assurance to state
that the expenses of the schools now
were 5000, when they are about $780,
600 less. BY reference to superintendents'
reports for years back, We find for the year
1S76-77 the whole number of white children
enrolled 3708; colored children, 1879, and
the cost for teaching alone was $40 73 each,
or $50, ,7S6 81, and the expenditures were
$49, ,47S 80; for the year 1S77-7S there was a
total white enrolment of 1877; colored,
1877; the total expenditures were $5S, ,551 70;
for the year 1S7S-79, the enrolment OF
pupils was 4l05, but the attendance was
lower than the preceding year; the
expenditures were S3S,915 so. There
being great decrease of popula-
ton, the enrolment of pupils was
not so large as usual the last year. The
were open for eight months as against six
and half months the year previous, and
while the expenses were for 9-80
S5991 13 per month, and for 1SS0-Sl, they
were $5194 SO per month, which is saving
OF nearly $500 per m nth. This was done in
the face of considerable Improvements in
the schoolbuildinss, which are now in a
better condition than they have been before
The figures just used show that Mr.. Colliei'-
administration of affairs compares favorably
with that OF his predecessors.
The APPEAL does not care to enter into
any OF the political squabbles of the trustees
but desires only to chronicle the truth. The
mere fact that Messrs. Walsh and Du Bose
have seen fit to go before the people of Other
wards in the city, soliciting opposition to the
men who voted for Mr.. Collier, not on the
ground OF the incompetency of the trustees
but because they voted as they did, should
be sufficient to damn their cause. 1t smaclI
of persecution and injustice, and the APPEAI
wants to see fair play.

{" The Catameunt Monument

Boston traveller, exploring the wilds of
Vermont in search of the spot where the
monument to commemorate the battle of
Bennington is to stand, found near that place
big, square block of granite. Puzzled as to
its significance, he interviewed a native"
and this was the story ne heard of the stone:
THAT ar is the eatamount monument. You
see, stranger, when the Workers an the Var
mounters had a row about the State line the
Varmounters beat the Workers all out. There
was a tavern there then, the same tavern
where Ethan Allen and his Council of Safety
met TO take measures before the battle of
old Ti.' Wall, you see, stranger, the Var
mounters felt so nice that the boys went over
to Anthony and shot q catamount, stuffed
his skin and put it on the top OF the old sign
board, just, you see, 10 let the Workers know
we beat. Wall, nov, you see, stranger, some
where out in Italy they are getting up a
brorgs figure OF a catamount to stick ON the
top OF that sione, If they ever get it here
