The plunge ashore OF the Rhyn.and
was made in the impenetraale dark

was blowing its widest and during a

beach. She carries fortyltwo passten-
gers, about seven or eight Of whom
are second cabin and the balance
steerage passengers. She aiso has a
crew Of seventy-nine, and is command
ed by Captain Hannah.
The tug North America, which had
been pulling at the Rhynland, left yes
terday afternoon and went 10 the De.a-
ware Breakwater after the lighter Lot
tie. Before starting for the Break
water the tug succeeded in moving the
steamer a short distance when the
tug reaches here with the lighter a
part Of the steamers cargo will be
taken of. Her propeller is broken
and it Is thought that her rudder wac

the full extent OF the damage The
passengers and crew are still aboard.
The steamer lies on what is known
among seafaring folk as Cotton Patch
shoal. The first intlmation that dis
aster had befallen the Ryhnland was

ment to continue in force five
years.
The law also provides for pen.
alties for violating the law, both
as to teachers and patrons.
The commission convenes the
Goth day of April, in the city Of
Nashville, and will proceed ia
carry the law into effect as rapidly
as possible.
This is, therefore, to notify al

An interesting lawsuit was tried
before his honor, Judge j. d.
Martin, last Saturday, in the court
house building. The point at is.
sue between the litigants was a
matter of contract. The proof
showed that the complainant, who
had sued defendant for 800, did
not comply with his part of the
contract, failed to supply the de.
PENDANT with rock to build fence,
as agreed, whereupon defendant
"ired" complainant, employing
others to take the contract. Com
plainant demurred, bringing suit.
The Judge rendered his decision
Monday in favor of defendant, on
the grounds that complainant was
drunk several times when the
work should have been pushed
neglecting to live up to his part
of the contract.

School Talk.

The following from the Waynes-
nesboro Tribune applies to Savan.
nah on the question of a college
building:
Do our citizens ever stop to CAL
culate how much cash Is sent out
of our county each year for edu.
cation? Nearly every little com.
munity in the county has one or
more youths off attending some
educational institutions O m g
school, college or university. Do
your own calculating. You can
build a firstclass college building
with that money in short time.
Then why DO we not have a col
lege building in the central part
of the county, Where is the
trouble? Simply this, every man
either wants a college of his own
that he can rule or else can not
afford to be contaminated by as.
ISOLATION with supposed enemy
in a busin ess transaction. What
is the remedyf Simply this, lay
aside your assumed independence
which is nothing but nonsense or
egotism, and then lay aside all diff
ference with your neighbor in this
matter of business, and accept
and go your full length in the first
proposition for building up col.
lege, that is presented. Eth er
do this or let your children grow
up in blissfuL ignorance.
