THE nomination Of Murat Hal
stead as minister to Germany has
been rejected the senate. The de-
feat Of Halstead was not due to any
un6tnesB for the position, but was
the result Of revenge. Halstead
has written some very bitter articles
against the South in his journal,
che Commercial Gazette, but il
cannot be denied that he is a man
Of brains and would have ably rep
resented this country abroad.

THE county court by a vote Of22
70 10 raised the school tax from fif-
teen cents to twenty cents on the
hundred dollars worth of property.
This decided majority is an lndlca-
tiOn Of the public pulse on free
schools. The improvement of the
system in Hardeman county goes
steadily forward. We have 5000
children of scholastic age IN this
county, nine-tenths of whom are
dependent alone on the free school
for an education. The county court
recognizing this fact has wisely in
creased the tax aud now let us al
use our best efforts to make The
schools more efficient. Fewer anC
better school houses, better teachers
longer terms and larger school
should be the watchword.

benefited in the near future by it
being so convenient for US to work

We have succeeded by the kindness
of our School board in getting a new
school started in our vicinity. In
the fall of 1883 the school during that
winter was taught by Miss Lilly
Ryland with gOood success, with the
attendance of about thirty scholars,
among whom were good many that
had never gone to school before, on
account of there being no school con-
venient. This winter Miss Minta
Miller is teaching the same school,
and so far everything is moving
along pleasantly with large attend
arce. Our only regret is that the
house used is a very poor one, hut we
are in good hopes that the School
Board will be kind enough to build
US new house before another winter.
