Second Day's Proceedings of the E. T.Farmer's Convention.

And the Session Closed after a Pleasant andProfitable Occasion.

SECOND DAY.

The East Tennessee Farmer's Conventionresumed its session at 8:30 o'clock yesterdaymorning, the president, CoL J. B. Stokely,

the chair.A short time was devoted to reading and

answering questions which were filed w.ththe secretary.

The first question was : "Is it true thatplowing land when too wet is most injuri-

ous to land ? If so, at what stage shouldland be plowed after it has been too wet,

avoid injury f"Second question, by F. P. Curtis, John-

son County; '.When is the best time Jxj

plaster clover and wheat, and what part ofthe plaster gives the effect, the part that,falls on the leaf, or that which fa!1 on theground?"

The questions illicited some profitablediscussion. '

CoL C. W. Charlton offered the following,which was adopted :

"Resolved, That it is the sense of thisconvention that the labor of convicts shouldbe utilized in the working and improve- -'

ment of our public roads throughout theState."

The following resolution was read andalso adopted :

Besolved, That this convention expressesits appreciation of the interest shown by theprofessional classes in our meeting; andthat the sentiments of the body were notexpressed in the language of the first speak-er on the subject, "How to raise the great-est amount of corn to the acre."

W. W. Wallace, of Knox County, pre-

sented a preamble and series of resolutionsproviding for the forming of an organiza-

tion or alliance among the farmers, fortheir protection against monopolies and op-

pression of all kinds, discrimination ofws; declaring against all class legislation,

&a., and disclaiming all opposition totransportation c ?m parries and such agen-cies. The resolutions provide also for theappointment of a committee of five to seekinformation on thn subject of forming theassoi-iaciatio- and furnish it to the officersof this convention.

The resolutions were adopted and thefollowing committee appointed : W. W.Wallace, H. B. Yearwood, F. C. Lindner.C. W. Charlton and B. P. Lloyd.

The following resolutions were read bythe secretary. '

Whereas, The wide spread and runiouscurse - of whuky, its manufactureand its indiscriminate sale, and unrestraineduse is keenly felt by the farming community;therefore,

Resolved, That a committee, consistingof President J. B. Stokely, CoL C. W.Charlton and Capt. J. A. . Turley, be ap-pointed to memorialize, in the name of theconvention, the Legislature of this State atits next regular session to inaugurate vigorous and decisive measures to suppressthe unrestrained sale and' use of intoxicat-ing liquors throughout the State.

A delegate moved to adopt the resolution.Another delegate moved to lay it on the

table. Lost.The resolution was then adopted, there

being only two or three dissenting votes.The next topic on the programme, "Feed-

ing and marketing beef cattle," was- - takenup and opened by Charles Leonhardt, ofAnderson, lollowed by CoL W. A.Moore, of Jefferson, both praotical and successful cattleraisers and sellers. They botn offered somevaluable suggestions, and were followed byOther speakers.

The topic, "What can be done to makeour public schools more efficient ?" was nexttaken up. Dr. W. S. Doak, State superin-tendent of public instruction, who was ex-

pected to open the discussion, wasunable to be present, on account of sick-ness.

Ex Governor D. W. C. Senter. ofHamblen County, opened the question withsome practical and common sense remarksupon the topic of education. To beginwith, he said, we must have sufficient taxa-tion, and he favored making the school taxthe largest tax we pay. His argument wasthat the end cannot be accomplished with-out compulsory education.

The speech elicited much interest frommembers of the convention, and a numberof vigorous speeches were made.

Messrs. W. H. Henry, of Blount; Tindell,of Knox; Lindner, of Polk, and Dr. A. A.Caldwell, of Jefferson, advocated in uncom-promising terms, compulsory education.

Col. Jno. fit. Meek, of Jefferson, said aman should be educated before he is allowedto vole.

Prof. Bussell, of Mossy Creek, warmlyadvocated an improvement in oursystem and method of educ ttiion.

Messrs. N. B. Dunn, of Polk; and J. J.Burnett, of Cocke, earnestly advocated theidea of the farmers taking more interest intne cause of education, and working themselves up to a point where they will beheard and felt, whereas they are not nowrepresented at all.

During the discussion Dr. A. W. Hawkins, State Commissioner of Agriculture,was called upon, and favored the conven-tion with some thoughts on this all impor-tant question. While r-- exactly opposingthe idea of compulsory education, he didnot indorse tie extreme views of some ofthe geutlem? i in reference to such a monarchial syst

CoL U. W. Charlton offered the following:

"Resolved, That it is the sense of thisconvention that we earnestly endorse theidea of compulsory education, and that weare in favor of inserting such a clause inour school law."

He moved its adoption without anyfuther debate. Dr. A. W. Hawkins secondedthe motion.

Prof. Hunter Nicholson wanted to knowif the gag law was to be put on the Conven-tion in that style.

CoL Charlton said the gentleman hadused an unfortunate term-- for which hewas sorry, but he would withdraw any objection, and allow discussion.

ueo. w. Maory, oi jinox, said everyspeaker, almost, had said that our publicschools are whoUy inefficient, on account oftne incompetency of directors, teachers, sc., and he asaed if it isfair now to compel the people to send theirchildren to such schools.

W. S. Smith, of Knox, moved to lay theresolution on the table. Lost.

Prof. ius8ell called for the previousquestion, and the resolution was adopted,with some dissenting votes.

"Does sheep husbandry in East Tennessee pay?" was taken up as the next topic.

In the absence of both CoL Tom Crutch-fie- ld

and E. F. Sharp. Bev. G. Taylor, ofHamblen County, cave some items of hisexperience in sheep raising, and was followed by CoL S. T. Howard, of Loudon.The experience of both was quitesatisfactory, and ' they testifiedthat sheep raising is a profitable industry,yielding good profit and improving a farm,especially a. worn out one. The trouble tobe encountered was the dogs.

Mr. Taylor testified that he suffered a se-

vere loss on that score, but it was not manydays before the buzzards were given theirchoice between sheep and dog meat. Hehas had no more trouble since. ,

The secretary read the following, andmoved its adoption, - 'c; v- - - ...

"Resolved by this onvtation, That the

Inquest Over the Bodies of Oav- -

endish and Burke.

Dublin, May 9. At the inquestyesterday on the bodies of LordFrederick Cavendish and UnderSecretary Burke medical evidencewas given to the effect that the vic-tims

in

had apparently - been stabbedsimultaneously from before and be-hi- nd

with long bowie knives. Thewounds all appeared to have beeninflicted with exactly similar weap-ons.

The illuminations in honor of therelease of suspects have been corns topletely abandoned. All the Dublinpapers appear in mourning. -

Arrests are constantly being madein various parts of Ireland of parities resembling, in some degree, thedescriptions given in the police cir-

cular of the suspected murderers ofBurke and Cavendish. Orders havebeen issued to arrest all strangersand tramps who are unable to account for their movements duringthe last three days.

London, May 9. The Daily Newsprints a rumor which was current inthe lobby of the House of Commonslast evening that the forthcomingIrish protection bill will providethat in certain cases of murdtr, trialby jury will be suspended and theaccused will be tried before threeJudges with the right of appeal.

The report is confirmed thatGeorge Otto Trevelian has been ap-pointed Chief Secretary for Ireland.The Pall Mall Gazette says that Leonaid H. Courtney, Member of Par-liament for Liskard, willbecome Joint Secretary tothe Treasury to fill the place,held by Lord Frederick Cavendish,previous to his appointment as ChiefSecretary for Ireland. Immediately,it says, upon Trevelian's acceptanceof the office, a special policeman wasplaced on duty before his residence.

A Times leading artie'e says : Evenif i ; be true that the murder of Cavandish and Burke, was done byAmericanslrish desperadoes, we mustnot forget that Parnell has boastedof consolidating an allience betweenthe Irish in America and those athome. We are unable to accept theplea that the men who have pursuedthe Land League course are divestedof all responsibility for the crimesthey now denounce. The Times con-tinues to ererge.'cally attack Parnel-io- o

members o'. Parliament.It tays it is morally impossible to

enter into any understanding withthose who denounce outrages. Thefirst time they feel that it cripplestheir operations, though they professto negotiate in the House of Com-

mons ior the bloodthirsty element ofIrLLh people. They are only power .

ful to excite disaffection ; they cannotdiminish the malignance of a wholeclass, who wallow in blood like beastsof prey.

Mr. Gladstone, in a publishedstatement, announces that he has re-

ceived a flood of communicationsfrom every part of the kingdom ex-

pressive of the horror and indigna-tion at the crime. He says itis onlyjust to state that none are more resmarkabla for fervor and sinceritythan the large number frcm all partsof Ireland. He wishes to expresshis sense of genuine fee'ing, shownby communications, and his personalthanks for the sympathy manifested.

In the House of Lords this even-ing, the Marquis of Lmsdowne an-

nounced that in consequence of therecent ministerial statements relativeto the impending measures for theprotection of life and property inIreland, he depicted the motionwhich he had announced against theIrish policy of the government. Hesaid he wished to impvess upon thegovernment very earnestly, thenecessity of not yielding to thepopular demands without the adop-tion of compensating measures forstrengthening the law.

New York, May 10.. OrlamoJackson brought suit in the SupremeCourt against the Louisiana StateLottery Company, alleging that hehid expended within the past fouryears $89,000 in the purchase of lot-tery tickets, and in which the plain-tiff sues to recover $178,000, " ordouble the amount invested, underthe provision of, a statute againstlotteries.

A motion waa made a few daysago to set aside the summons andcomplaint on the ground of irregu-larity, and to-da- y a decision wasgiven denying the motion uponthe plaintiffs amending the sumsmons.

The Soovllles.New York, May 9. The habeas

corpus proceedings instiuted byGeorge Scoville, to recover his wifefrom John W. Guiteau, have developed the fact that Scoville thinks hiswife's mind has become unsettled,and that John W. Guiteau, fearingScoville intended to place her in theinsane asylum, has tasea her underhis protection and refuses to allowScoville to know of her whereabouts.Mrs. Scoville waa to lecture here,but this complication has interferedwith that project.

Terrible Cyolone.Chicago, III , May 10. A Pari-on- s,

Kan., special tays a terriblecyclone passed over McAllister, amining settlement in the Indian Ter-ritory, Monday night. Seven peoplewere killed outright, four fatallv.deven dangerously and thirty -- Dinemore or less hurt. Fifty-tig- ht houseswere totally demolished, and thirtyothers badly wrecked. The cyclonecut a path through the timber just asa scythe would mow through grass.The damage to the Osage Coal andMining Company was ve - great.The population of thesettl .- entwasonly 800. The Buffering caused bythe visitation is very serious.

Mound City, Mo., was also struckby a cyclone Monday evening, andproperty was terribly wrecked, treesuprooted, fences prostrated and thecrops nearly ruined. The steeple ofthe Christian Church was blownaway and many houses wrecked.

Republican Convention.Harrisbueq, Pa., May 10. The

Republican convention met to-da- y,

and carried out the programme an-

nounced for them in nominating theState ticker, except as to Congressmen at large. Gen.

Marshall, of Alleghany County,Congres8inan-a- t- large. Marshallwas not the slate as made up, andhis nomination was carried in a burstof enthusiasm similar to that whichattended Garfield's nomination.

Fraud.Boston, May 10. The frauds per

petrated on 'New England manu-- r

facturers, by means of forged certuicates, of cotton shipped from Colum-

bus, Miss., are much greater than atfirst supposed. It now appears thatthe mills having headquarters in thiscity suffer to the amount of $185,-00- 0,

while six mills in Fall Biver willlose $500,000. This is the substanceof the result of the investigations, asfar as they have been carried, but itis surmised that the development ofthe next day or two will bhow a muchmore extensive fraud.
