Judge Ye What is Right!

There is a country in Africa
which for long time has professed
that form of Christianity which is
called Coptic, which prevails also
to some extent in Egypt; but they
are confessedly in great need of a
better faith and practice. This
country had long been torn by in
ternal warfare, until at length one
chieftan, because of his great am
bition, bravery, and other qualities
which go to make up a warrior,
white or black, subdued almost the
whole country under his control.
A certain Englishman went to
reside in that land for purposes of
profit who afterward succeeded in
getting the British Government in
terested to establish political rela-
tions with the victorious king, and
was appointed consul. The object
on his part and that of his govern
ment was gain.
Several things occurred to render
the king dissatisfied; the first con-
sui died, and another was appoint
ed. A neighboring nation with
which Britain was affiliated COM
menced making inroads; and the

A Change Of Teachers.

In the election of teachers for
the Maryville public schools for the
coming year the Directors have
presented the public with q corps,
in which the absence of males is
quite conspicuous. 1t is with pleas.
ure that we announce the name of
Miss Maggie Henry as Principal,
knowing that a more competent
lady could not have teen found for
the position. She will be assisted
by Miss Lou Gates and Miss 'Sallie
Smith.
With this corps of teachers the
patrons of the school should be
pleased. We wish that the ladies
may have health and strength suf-
ficient to perform the physical and
mental duties of the schooi-room;
and if at any time during the COM
ing year the forests about Mary
vile become Obliterated through
constant pruning, may it be hap.
py afterthought that the Chilhowee
Mountains are close.
The Maryville times. (Maryville, Tenn.) 1884-1944, 1886-06-30
PAX.

Those who are owing for the
TIMES for the first and second year,
or for either of them, are invited to
call and pay up. If you have not
got the money, come in and tell us
when you can pay; then, you may
have something to sell that we
may want to buy. Now, we will
take this as a great favor if you will
do this. "A. j. NEFF 4 Sons.

Our Mails.
MEssRs. EDITORS:

MESSRS. EDITORS:
l desire to call your attention to
the great injustice done to the peo-
pie of Blount County in the estab-
fishing of many of the mail routes.
I do not know who is in the fault.
Many of the leading points in the
county ale entirely disconnected
from the Courts, the business and
other interests that naturally GEN.
ter at the county seat. Take for
illustration the towns of Louisville,
1iser, Friendsville, Disco, Bank
9nd Usebia. All mail matter is
tompeped to 60 by way Of Knox
willie, which makes it from thirty to
forty miles. When the Maryville
mail matter reaches Concord, 80
miles, via Knoxville, then 1t Is as
far from Louisville, Miser and
Friendsville as it is before leaving
Maryville. To accommodate these
points two daily mails have been
established from Concord, one to
Louisville, and the other to Friends
vile and Miser. These routes cross
the big Tennessee four times each
day, by ferry, costing the Govern
ment $125.2O per year.
Why not, Mr.. Editor, discontinue
one of these routes, and make one
supply the three Offices? Then
establish daily mail from Mary
; vile, and the people of these three
offices would receive mail matter
from both railroads, being better
accommodated at no greater cost.
What can be done to remedy this
matter? A CITIZEN.

king had a letter safely conveyed
to England, making complaints
and demanding protection. This
letter remained unanswered in the
Foreign Office in London for two
years.
Meanwhile a number of mission
aries had come to the country OF
the king. The consul received in
structions, as the king knew, but
no answer came to his letter. Va
rious other things which we might
enumerate aggravated his feelings,
and finally he put the consul and
the missionaries in confinement,
letting it be understood that he
must have an answer to the COM
municati0n to the British govern
ment. Before the latter would stir,
however, much feeling was raised
in England for the suffering mis-
sionaries. The government then,
very unfortunately, sent one whom
the king regarded as an enemy
not an Englishman-with a reply
to the twO-year old letter. After
considerable delay he was received,
however, and large present was
given him, for which he gave nc
return, as was always the custom
The king had him seized and put
in prison also. There is no doubt
this king was a cruel, bestial man.
The British government, now full
ly awake, sent 10000 soldiers against
him, with ali the GLORIOUS" appli
ances of modern warfare. Not one
of the British was killed, but $40 o
the kings subjects were and 15O(
wounded. Hesurrendered the cap
tiyes, retired into another fortress
and was there killed. This was II
1868. The country was Abyssinia
and the king was Theodore.
Millions of money were expend
ed; many more than 10000 person
were employed for many months
500 men with souls for whom Chris
died were put beyond the reach Q
the gospel power, and 1900, more o
less, badly crippled; widows an
4 orphans by the hundreds made
and vast amounts of property dc
stroyed, to obtain the release, OF

A petition, embracing the facts
as set forth in "Citizen's" commune
cation asking a change and the
establishing of a daily route from
Maryville to Louisville, Miser and
Friendsville, meeting the Concord,
daily and returning by the way OF
Miser and Louisville to Maryville,
would do the work satisfactorily,
giving the people of those towns
daily mail matter from both rail-
roads, which would certainly be
better than receiving mail matter
from Maryville when three to SIX
days old. EDITOR.

TIE ride up to Canton on the
pleasant little,river-bOat "Ho-N Nam"
was one to be remembered. Every
thing was SO different from what
We had before seen. The low river
country rice, lands, with canals in
all directions, through which tiny
boats were passing, was of a bright
green with the growing grain,
which many farmers were trans
planting. Beyond, and occasional
ly among these fields, rose sharp
hills, some bare rocks, but mostly |
verdant with spring foliage. On
some were temples, and in one we
saw entrances to tombs in the steep
hillside. AS we passed four is
lands in the channel the cannons
made great noise from their for
tilted sides. 1t was some festival
day, for the forts were covered with
flags and other decorations.
Near Canton we passed two very
high Pagodas-a dozen stors, at
least, with small trees growing on
them all the way up. Then the
river became so full of boats we
couM'hardly get along at all, and
while we were watching them we
floated up to the low landing.
We wanted, tirst, to see DIR. Kerr,
and taking "Sampan," or native
boat, went to his pleasant residence
by the river side. To our disap.
pointment DR.. Kerr and his daugh-
ter were away in northern Ctina
but DR.. Swan ana his wife, and DR..
Niles, a lady physician, received us
cordially and showed us much'tind
attention. That afternoon we Wis

perience, being welcomed and CIV

ed our way out. The boys were
very troublesome, crowding around
us begging, and at last threwstones
at US. The temples are somewhat
decorated, and in one was fine
marble statue on pedestal. But
; the buildings themselves are poor
; old wooden structures, going to de.
cay and dilapidation. The suburb,
called Sha-meen, was once only q
sandbank, but the French and En-
glish Rlled it in and now it is a
} beautiful garden, with occasional
) elegant residences, the place where
most Europeans reside.
