Atchison Champion: The presbytery
of Allegheny, by a vote of eleven to
fifteen, refused to permit Rev. John
Kerr to travel on Sunday to Natross by
rail TO minister to the weak congrega-

An exchange says that legislation
which facilitates divorce has been re-
duced to almost an exact science by law
makers in New England. 1t certainly
is high time that some measures were
being adopted to arrest the tide of i'm
migration from that part of the country.

Col. Cash, ex-duelist, is conducting
his independent canvass for congress in
South Carolina in that warlike spirit
which might be expected of him. He
addressed meeting at Rock Hill the

began. At once he rushed into his
room IN the hotel and soon returned
armed for an emergency" and then the
report proceeds, quiet was restored"

The Portland Argus, the leading Dem-
ocratic paper in Maine, says of the re-
suits of Mondays election in that state:
at was a Waterloo, and the result may
as well be accepted philosophically as
otherwise. 1t Is no use in crying over
spilled milk. All the Unionists have
got to do is to take courage, gather their
forces together, and march--where
The Republicans will have their own
way for the next two years, and perhaps
they will conduct the affairs of the state
in such q manner that the people will
rise in their might and rebuke them,
but that is very much to be doubted
when so many OF them can be pur-
chased"

The Republicans of the third con-
gressional district of Wisconsin, have
probably forestalled the election of a
Republican from that district. Two
sapheads, Hazelton and Keyes. are in
the field, both claiming support from
the Republican party. 1t will be only
by the skin Of their teeth that the Re-
publicans will control the next con.
gress, and they cannot afford TO barter
away members after the fashion of the
third district Republicans OF Wisconsin.
AT best, such proceeding would be as.
SHINE, and under the present ciTcum-
stances il is infamous.

In his message to congress the presi-
dent of the Republic of Mexico said
Saturday: The United States has given
and received from us proofs of the sin
cerest friendship. The American gov
eminent has wisely and justly removed
all existing difficulties by informing the
Guatemala government that it could not
offer mediation unless asked TO do SO
by both nations" He thinks that the
next generation will celebrate Mexican
independence with the same pride that
the Americans observed their centennial

Knoxville daily chronicle. [volume] (Knoxville, Tenn.) 1870-1882, 1882-11-23

The st. Louis Globe Democrat
thinks it singular that there should
not be something like definite and
generally accepted science OF edu-
cation. There are certainly as many
reasons and as strong why teachers
should be educated for their profess
sion as lawyers and doctors are for
theirs. A man may know something
about arithmetic and grammar with
out being a teacher. A vast sum OF
money is wasted every year in the
way of salaries to incompetent
teachers. But this is by no means
the worst feature of the case. Thous
sands of boys and girls waste the
time in which they should be recelv-
ing the rudiments of an education,
by attendance upon these incompe~
tent teachers. Their time is not
only wasted, but their minds are im-
pressed with false ideas, and the
foundation for the future is made
rotten and insecure 1t is very
important problem, well worth the
attention of school boards and those
whose business it is to employ
teachers.

SUCH members of Congress as rode
two horses on the tariff question
before their election, will shudder at
what they now have to meet, Some
of them talked tariff for revenue
only, to their country constituents,
and protection in the manufacturing
towns. Now they must decide which
side they will take at the risk of ex-
posing their former duplicity. And
then the majority will decide. The
question of the tariff will be decided
before many years. The policy now
pursued, and which has prevailed for
many years, will continue, or the pol
icy of free trade wi be adopted, and
politicians will no longer be able to
stand on both sides OF the fence at
the same time.

THERE are very few persons who
will waste any sympathy on Gen. j.
r. Chalmers of Mississippi, who was
ouated from his seat in the last Con-
gress on account of the glaring
frauds by which he was declared
elected. His chickens have come
home to roost. In the late canvass
he ran as an independent candidate
against Gen. Manning and was elect
ed, but counted out by rascally
trick, the particulars of which have
already appeared in our telegraphic
columns. The methods by which
his defeat was reached and his com
petitor made successful are such as
demand general condemnation, in
which such staunch Democratic
journals as the Nashville American
and Memphis Appeal join. Itshows
that we have a healthier state of
public opinion than we mad few
years ago, and there are thousands
of extreme partisans even who do
not subscribe to the doctrine that
the end iustifes the means.

mechanical work is far superior to
any we have seen. It's columns are
full of the latest and most reliable
telegraphic news from all parts of
the country. Its editorials are clear
and comprehensive, sound on all the
leading questions of the day, forci-
BILE in style, and void of that ostenta-
tious display of superior knowledge
and character, aiming rather at the
plain truth in a practical manner.
With its able corps of employees, it is

For more than half century he was
recognized as one of the ablest jour-
nalists in the country He never
would accept an Office himself, but
was political leader of boldness
and sagacity, and was a veritable
Warwick in American politics. 1t
was to his influence more than to
any other one man, perhaps, that
Gen. Harrison owed his nomination
for the Presidency in 1910. He is
also credited with having secured
the nomination of Taylor in 184S,
and Scott in 1862
He was an intimate personal friend
of the late Hon. VIM H. Seward, who
owed his successful political career
almost as much to Mr.. Weeds sa-
gacious counsel and shrewd manage
ment as to his own recognized abil-
ity. He was pronounced anti
slavery man, and his vigorous utter
ances in the days of slavery natural
ly rendered him unpopular with the
Southern people, but since that
question has been eliminated from
politics, they have learned to respect
him for his courage and ability. He
was essentially radical in his whole
mental composition, and was an ex-
tremist to the last. He was for
many years the political editor OF
the Albany Evening Journal, which,
under his management, attained to
high and envlabie position in
American journalism.

THE DECEMBER CENTURY.

Variety and freshness of illustra>
tions and literary features are claim
ed for the December Century. John
Marshall, the Great Chief Justice, is
the subject of the frontispiece, which,
with character sketches and many
portraits, belongs 90 E. Y. Smalley's
paper on "The Supreme Court of the
United States Besides giving a
clear idea OF the functions of the
Supreme Court, the writer describes
picturesquely the routine and the
humor of that dignifed body, and
gives several anecdotes of the chief,
justices. "My Adventures in Zuni
is Frank FL Cushing's first paper on
the remarkable tribe of Pueblo In>
| dams with whom he has been living
as an adopted chief for two years or
| more. His account Of the family life
and religious rites of the Zunis, and
the numerous illustrations, are both
unusually interesting. William Ell
hot Grifis explains 1.-THE Corean
Origin of Japanese Art, and brings
to the assistance of the text several
striking reproductions of old Corean
art. ssThe Taxidermal Art is the
subject of several beautiful engrav>
ings of mounted birds and animals,
and, in the text, Franklin I'll. North
writes with freshness about taxider-
mists and the curious features of
their art. A portrait of the late DIR.
John Brown, the author of the inim>
liable story "Rab and the Friends,
which includes portrait of the mas
tiff Rab, and picture of the authors

The purpose is, by series of clever

THuRLow WEED.

The death of Thurlow Weed, the
veteran journalist, occurred at his
residence, in New York, yesterday
morning, as noted in our press dis

man. He died in his 66th year, and
while he has outlived two genera

yigor of mind to the last. When
but boy, he served an apprentice
ship in printing Office, and in early
life engaged actively IL journalism
