A MATRIMONIAL OMM0TION-REVINAL ~
SCHOOL MATTERS-TnE LOCAI-OPTION WAR
BEGUN-A TRADE FOR A HOUSE AND LAND.
fCorre spondencc Of the Richmond Dispatchl
April %, 1852.
There has been a most pleasant commo-
ton amongst society people since the mar
riage OF Mr.. j. Allen Patton, of w. 5. Pat
ton, sons d Co., TO Miss Mary II.
Crew, Of Richmond, on the 10Th. The
party came up from Richmond on the morn
ing OF the Doth, under the superintendent
Of Major j. u. Patton, and on the night of
the Goth they "received" at the house Of
Mr.. w. 5. Patton, father Of the bridegroom,
"from . till y O'clock" Last night the
German Club, OF which the bridegroom is
a member, gave reception IN honor OF Mr.
and Mrs. Patton, and there, too, there was
most brilliant assemblage, and there, too,
number Of ladies from Richmond and
Lynchburg.
Since the failure of the move for the re-
mOYal OF the public-schOOl officers the
nervousness that was apparent amongst the
officers and amongst the teachers and the
"patrons" has disappeared, and there is
feeling that things, after all, will not ego
to pieces.' In fact, there has been some
thing Of revival in the school business.
In the city the number Of teachers EN-.
ployed is lG; the number OF white pupils
enrolled is 81, and the number OF colored
is 81. In the two townships attached TO
the city uperintcndency there are employed
"a teachers, and there are enrolled 2,330
pupils-white, 1860; cOlored. 900. Rev.
George W. Dame in entering upon the SUI
perintendency, as it were, anew. gives i'm
something over column definition OF the
relations subsisting between the Common
Council and the Board OF School Trustees
Of town.
Judge Trcdway came forward as the
leader In the local-option movement in this
county on last court-day. On the other
side there appeared Mr.. Robert ii. Tredway,
Judge j. ID. Coles, Colonel W. Il. Sims,
Mr.. ID. II. Pannill, Mr.. X. W. Peatross,
Mr.. j. j. Lamkin, and Mr.. John II. Gil
mer.. The PitSyiuania tribune says that
nearly every lawyer at the Chatham bar
was employed 10 fight against local option
last Monday, and that some OF them re-
ceiyed $50 each for services as counsel.
