MURDER FORCE OF EXAMPLE.
On the night of the lath iust., near
1 lu* Qu:il,it Springs, but in this comi
ty, a Mr. I‘riee was murdered. Vari
ous reports s*y from four to eight col
ored men eunie to his wagon and shot
liiin. This j- -i horrible affair. A
Tittle over a rear since, some lilleen or
twenty very genteel white 1141*11 ap
peared at the residence of Harry
Thomas, (colored) about a mile from
this same place ; handcuffed his wife
and put about twenty odd balls in bis
body. llis w ife appeared at General
Tillson’s office with the hand-cuffs on
her.
There was a mock trial before the
Superior Court of Columbia county.
The whole affair (as they called it,)
was laughed out of Court. The mur
derers are now at Shirty, tin nutd,
yiiittijit.it and jirijniritt to commit like
depredations. This is a free country,
where justice is equally distributed.
It is reported that these murderers are
black men. We hope they will come
forward, also ask an examination, give
hail, appear, and see if tin: cane is
/•nitfhcd if Court.

The Militia Troubles in .Tennessee

| 'rile State Guards, under Captain
j Rickman, have had some trouble in

have manufactured a terrible affair
out of it. One A, S. Colynr, an ex
rebel Congressman, delivered an in

threatening rebellion and armed re
Distance against the State .imhorit ies.
The affair in Franklin county i- siat(-l
by Captain Rickman in the following

Hi hi nil mot .1. U. of Ten to.sso :
“Gknkral: I have the honor to re
-1 port that my men this morning killed
j a man by the name ot Janies Rrown,
| under the following eirctimstanees:
I < hi the 27th instant one of my men was
1 passing through Brown's. neighhor
lioood, and Rrown got in company
with him and wanted him to join his
| company; seid that lu- was a bush
whacker, and that he belonged to Joe
Rodgers guerillas. He also told how
! many Union soldiers he had bush
whacked and killed. He wanted to
show the bones ol two Federal sol
diers that were close In his house,
whom he and Rodgers had killed. I
sent Lieutenant Unite w ith a squad of
men to arrest Rrown this morning,
and after they caught-him and w ere on
their wav to the graves of the two
men that he had killed, Grown broke
and ran, whereupon three soldiers
tired at him and killed him.
“ Respectfully, your obedient servant,
“ W vi. V. 1 H \m\ n .

The Governor at once ordered
. (ten era! Samuel Hunt to visit the
seem* of the disturbances, investigate
the matter, and rfcport. He did so,
and states the killing of Hrown to have
: occurred mainly as described bv
Captain Rickman, but that the riianv
rumors and reports ,it other outrages
were much exaggerated and in mam
eases utterly false.
We learn from the Knox-, ilk* Whig
that notwithstanding Captain Rick
man's explanation, the Governor has
ordered his arrest and the arrest of
all concerned w ith him, and they w ill
be turned ever to the civil authorities
to be dealt w ith according to the law
and evidence.
A colored tournament is among the

Washington, D ( , April V H,
it WH& iheught by .-oHie that we had better .
get the Parker .v Watson Scries, whit li is the !
most used in the 8< hools, simply l*eeause sonic |
had got it, for the sake of uniformity ; but my j
recommendation prevailed. One gentleman ■
present, who had used both, stated that be had
used the other os long as hi eared to, and con
sidered Die. Willson Serk*# as fak superior,
giving an example of the difference of time
required in tea» hiug anew pupil, the prefe
rence Iwing decidedly in favor of the latter
r-erkr. St* we, rfarting this new movement,
have iln ided to get the best book extant, so far
as we knew t hi in,

“ The jmeuliar characteristic ot this Series
lies iu the fact that they aim to impart, as far
as possible useful information. For this pur
pose they contain a series of articles on vari
ous subject* of seicneo and history, graded to
the capacity of different pupils, and so arranged
that \vh«*n tin* five volumes have been care
fully r**ad, the student, in addition to a know
ledge of reading, will have acquired a conside
rable knowledge in many departments of
study, such as will lay the foundation for more
complete instruction afterward/’
Tiny arc therefore peculiarly adapted to fin j
pressing needs and quick pereeptives ot the !
colored children. Each book is profusely and j
handsomely illustrated, and the illustration* i
are all intended to mider the comprehension {
"f the reading matter more easy. The follow- j
ing testimonial* have been selected from a i
large mu>s of a similar nature :

Dear Sir—l have been familiar with the j
Headers from their first publication, and am j
free to say to you, as I have uniformly *aid to j
teachers, superintendenti-, and others, that, i
all things considered, I regard them a* the '<
lust tk-rics before the public The leading
peculiar feature of this Series was a happy in
spiration of tlie author, and the execution of
the plan -o well done a? scarcely to admit oi j
improvement. Mr. Willson’s style of compo ,
-ition in the lower numbers of the Series, ami !
something cl his plan in the higher numbers, 1
have been imitated by some later writers of
school readers with decided advantage to their (
work.-. Hence Mr. Willson has not only made ;
a peerless Series of his ow n, but lias elevated j
the general standard of such works. When |
ever my choice lias not been constrained by j
t ire urns’a nee.'. 1 havt always used this tk‘rie>
both in the white ami colored schools with j
w hich I have been in any way connected.
