A thorough aud active system of pub-

piatercd interests of the State—for where
Rite manses are intelligent and have the

I m>me better and more prosperous citi-

intelligence is vir»ue and morality. Ig-

It is the wi*rk of the public school sys-

ponsible duties resting upon them. It
epends upon the harmony and uni-

The late s, e- ch of M. Thiers in the
National Assembly is significant as to the
status aud future oi that country. After
speaking of the impi rtauce of peace for
ti e interest of the nation, and tne efforts
being then made for the payment
of the last milliard of the German in
demnity fund, he concludes iu reply to
Lite charge that his (Thiers’) government
hail no alliance with other nations, as
follows:
“In tbe present condition of the world,
alter the insensate policy which has
broken up the European balance of
power, the-re are no longer any allies for
at y one. Alliance consists iu the esteem
w hich each inspires, .mil France has re
sumed the position which is her due by
her vitality, by her steady and consistent
course. We me restoring our military
forces without concealment, because we
do not wish thut France should sink from
ln-r proper rank. The best alliance is
the • ateem which we inspire in Europe.
That which divides the Chamber is the
question of the repnblio or monarchy;
but tbe tneuds oi the latter speak ol
themselves as Conservatives, and do so
because they know there is but oue
throne, which will not suffice for three
aspirants.”
France has exhibited great vitality in
her material strength, in having paid off
the German indemnity in so short a time
after a devastating war. If France is
capable ot maintaining a republican form
of government, and “has resumed her
]>osition” among the powers of the world,
by a “steady aDd consistent course,” that
will make her esteemed by all for good
aud pe r manent government, the late war
may uot have been fought in vain, and
the cause of human liberty and happi
ness enhanced thereby. Under the
guidance and rule of MieMahoD, it is
Hoped that free government will find an
abiding place in Franoe.

Yesterday morning, at ti e open-

tr» petition imd jnotion made by C.
H. Williams, Esq., requiring John
King to pay- into court the sum of
fire thousand one handled and
twenty-five, dollars, the amount he re-,
ceived from the court as its receiver.
Thete was a good deal of argument
in the case, ana as it is one of consid
erable iuterest, we give a concise
statement in regard to the money
and Judge Johnson’s decision:
The money claimed is the proceeds
arising from the sale of the Empir
Cotton Seed Hu'ler and Oil Com
pany, which failed here abouc a year
ago, and was sold under several at
tachments. After the sale, and when
the Sheriff brought the money into
court for distribution, the distribu
tion was objected to by se\ eral ,#f the
creditors. It being a large sum, by
consent of all parties, the court or
dered the Sheriff to deposit the same
with John King, who agreed to take
it, hold it subject to the order of
court, and pay for it seven per cent,
interest. The receipt given by Mr.
King is iu accordance with the
above.
Mrs. M. S. Smith, oue of the claim
ants of the fund, by her attorney,
Charles H. Williams, Esq., petitioned
the court to order the fund brought
intx> court, as Mr. King has sus
pended aud made an assignment.
John Peabody, Esq., reprsenting
Mr. King, claimed that he received
the money as a loan from the court,
and was or. the same footing with
other creditors.
Mi. Williams argued that Mr.
King held the money as receiver of
the court, aud therefore subject to
the order of court.
Alter hearing all the facts, Judge
Johnson granted an order requiring
Mr. King to pay the money into
court, to the Clerk, on or before
Monday, the iith inst., and it in de
fault, to -diow cause why he should
not be attached for contempt The
order was taken, aud will be served
on Mr. King.
It seems there is no desire to harm
Mr. King personally, but this was
the only way in which to bring the
matter before the court, to deter
mine whether Mr. King should have
held the money for the court or put
it in the general fund that he as
signed, when he suspended.
It is thought the assignees will ap
peal to the (Supreme Court.—Colum

The ColotTtl < undiftntta at West Point*
A gossipping letter to the New
York Herald, from West Point, de
scribes the colored candidates for ma
triculation, and the cadet Smith, also
colored. The lattei says: Two young
men—Messrs. Henry O. Flipper, of
Georgia, aud John W. Williams, of
Virginia, colored gentlemen, are in
the ranks with Mr. Butler, son of the
General, and ate proud of the dis
tinction. Flipper is a dark, large,
awkward man, but intelligent. Wil
liams is a butternut in color, quick
on his feet, and, I am told, made the
best showing of any of the “ plebes”
in the mental examination yesteiday.
loth will pass, in all probability.
Cadet Smith has had a hard to hoe
at West Point. Put down and put
back, snubbed and slighted, he set
himself brave’y to work for tue prize
of recognition. He is now in the
third class. He has grow'n tired of
complaining, and seems to recognize
the fact that he wa3 no more roughly
“deviled” while a “plebe” than other
youths. The cadets, the best of them,
confess that his conduct has won
their respect, as most white lads
would have incontinently tied from
the academy rather than submit for
a week to the treatment he has suf
fered for three years. He has shown
dogged courage and a quiet determi
nation to succeed that ia duly appre
ciated by the cadets. It is admitted
on all sides that he will graduate at
least with honor.
If Williams passes the preliminary
examination he will room with Smith.
Flipper will have to struggle alone in
a separate room and in perpetual Cov
entry, like Smith of that ilk.

A firing trip oyer tbe Atlanta aud West
Point Railroad ia a decided pleasure at
this *u—on of the year, especially to one
who ha* been denied the God’s privilege
of breathing pare fresh air all the spring,
aud being forced to inhale the odorifer
ous breeses for which Atlanta is at pres
ent so celebrated. Tbe pleasure is con
siderably enhanced if one selects the
to. go on over which Jim McCool ie
boss. His idea of e'evernees and accom
modation are' singalorly enough in uni
son with those of his passengers. This,
takeu in oontiadistinction with the too
irequent habit of conductors in treating
their patrons as a lot of ocnvicts on their
way to some pnbl o works, is truly re
freshing.
I intended telling yon of the crops on
the line of road to West Point; but the
nrroundings in tbe car were too numer
ous to afford one much of a chance to
look out. Besides a batch of beautiful
girls, who were on their way home from
Ward’s Seminary (aud the cholera) at
Nasbville, and who got off at LaGr .uge, .
tnere w*i the little smiling face of Prof.
B. F. Moore, who c ime to West Point to
est&hlisu a Council of Mascns; Rev. Dr.
Leftwmh, who got off’ at Newnan; Reau
Campbell, who was dilating upon his ex
ploits; Paul Joues and Aaron Huas, who
wtrealter delinquent custom.rs; aud a
fine car load of nice people—all calcula
ted to keep one’s mind in a state of un
certainty as to what should be noticed.
At West Poiut I had the pleasure of
meet.ng Dr. Redwine und his bride,
who had just that morning married in
Columbus, and who were looking cheer
ful and happy—all to themselves. I had
only time to “tender my best,”etc., etc.,
when another wedding party from this
place called on me to “ge* in and let’s
go, because its time.” Tuts was my
dear, old-rime friend. George H. Black,
who had come to West Point to marry
Miss Emma Z ichrv. He did marry, too,
aud one of those pleasant, old-fashioned
quiet family affairs superceded the latter
day style of flourish aud flummery. The
ceremony came off at 2 r. XL, aud
the cortege went the “ove.land route”
to LaFayette. The “undersigned,”
would not die happy and in full posses
sion of the lit lief that he had done
his whole duty to his fellow-man
did he uot heie record his thanks to the
manuiuvering of his friend Black for a
buggy ride of fifteen miles (it appeured
to be only four or five) with the ‘■c-hitrm-
ingest” little sweetheart in Alabama.
How it came about is not generally known,
because it was not ougipub} down ou
the programme; but it so happened, aud
was the most dcligutful ride now known.
The p rty arrived in time for a hand
some ri ception at the bridegroom’s res
idence, which canto oflat 10 o’clock p. m.
LaFayette is an old town, but of late
has recuperated wonderfully, sinoe the
railroad has ba“n completed. The Clip
per is a splendid little countiy paper, aud
this week has bet-n enlarged.
To-night I am going to indulge exten

worthy of record and of interest to your
readers should appear, I may send them

Understand me, I am not on business,
and am only looking out for a week as
to what will most conduce to the pleasure
and comfort of George.
