Yesterday afternoon a band of able-bod ied, strong-lunged, patriotic musicians paraded the streets, tooting their horns, beating their drums and hearing aloft a banner upon which was the le gend: "Public sjicaking at the Courthouse to-night," beautifully embellished Willi curves and hair lines and supplemented with a startling array of exclamation points. Thus forewarned, the Nashville public, to the number of one hundred and fifty (150) about one-half of whom were small boys who ought to liave been at home in their little beds assembled at the point indicated, soon after dark.

A neat pine table, severe in its extreme simplicity, had been placed near the west gate of the Courthouse fence: On this table was a chair, minus a back, aud on this chair was placed a lighted lantern. Loud calls being made by the crowd for Frank Overstreet one of the candidates for the office of Jailor, that individual clambered upon the table with considerable difficulty, and spoke his piece, being constantly interrupted with yells, groans and cheers ori the part of the uuterriiied. Calls were then made for Pentecost, Rob. rtson, McGowan, and a number of others, the small boys joining the call. Finally, McGowan got upon the stand and commenced his speech by saying that he could not speak very loud, as his voice was weak.

The noise having finally subsided, he continued aud attempted to read a paper which he said he introduced the City Council while a membei of that bodv; but was presented by the yells of the crowd. After this sort of thing had gone on sometime longer.

A HEARTLESS SWINDLE. How a Sepltinireimrlan Came It Over au Ancient Acjrress. It was a heartless trick tliat was played on an old negro woman at the Chattanooga depot yesterday by a man named Jas.

M. aiict-v, who says he is nearly seventy years old. He has been Iving around the lepot several days, and yesterday morning he sauntered into the sitting-ioom, set apart for colored people, and commenced a conversation with an ancient negress. Ho inquired where she was going. She told him that she had a through ticket from Gahe-ton, Texas, to Chariot' North Car olina.

He then asked her to let him look at the ticket, with which request she complied. After examining the ticket for a lew minutes, the venerable trickster told her that there was something wreng about the ticket and that, if she would wait there he would go to the ticket office and have it changed. She placed full confidence in him and gave him the ti --et. Instead of going to the ticket office, however, he hurried off and went out to the Decatur depot, where he waited until the train came along, got aboard and took a seat. In the meantime, old aunty began to think her kind benefactor was staying rather long, and, becoming at last very nneasv, went in search of him.

She reported the facts to Cant. J. Alexander, policemen at the depot, who immediately communicated them to the conductor of the train which was then about to leave. When the Conductor made his rounds, collecting tii kets, Yancey presented his and the condti'-tor knew at once that he had caught the old chap. He held him in custody un til Antioch was readied, wnere tney met the Shelbyville accommodation.

Yancey was then placed under cliarge ot the con ductor of the accommodation train and brought back to Nashville, after which he was taken to lwlice headquarters ana irom there fcent to the Work-house. He says his home is in no particular place, and that he has lived in nearly all of the Southern States. Being on his way to North Caro lina himself, he thought the old woman ticket afforded excellent opportunity to reach his desiinatio .1 without haviDg to plank up any stamps. His case will be investigated this morning. Small Farmers Thankfully Received Mr.

J. D. Bailey, who was here some time ago, in the interest of between thirty and thirty-five families living around Bolivar, Ohio, with a view to the purchase of farms near Nashville, writes to a gentleman of this city: "We ha not disposed ot our property yet, but are still in hopes tliat we will see you this fall. Mr. App thinks that he would prefer that we should come together next time.

The jieople are very much excited over our report, and say that if they come down, they will come by the dozen." Colored Excursion to Shelbyville. To morrow an excursion party of colored people will reave Nashville for Shelbyville, where a colore church is to be dedicated by Rev. Nelson Merry. Tickets for the round trip will be soitl at one dollar each, the profits arising tlitrefrom to go to the benefit Baptist (colored) Church in this city. A CAUSE CELEBEE.

As the cage 6r Capt. J. Womack vs W. W- Hobbs, ex-Comptroller, wherein the former sues the latter lbr breach of con-thactj has attracted some attention of late, a reporter of this paper obtained some facts yesterday in relation to. the case from Capt.

Womack, who is now the managing editor of the Ifashville Journal of Commerce: Upon being interrogated bjt bur reporter, Capt. Womack told the following plain, tin Varnished tale: I never saw Hobbs until at the time he was elected Comptroller. I had been living in McMinnville, practicing law. I came to Nashville during, the session of the Legislature in 1873, as a candidate for tlie office of Secretary of State. Several friends, in, the Legislature worked for Hobbs and finally succeeded In electing ldm Comptroller: the- election, he came to them and said, Gentlemen, I bwe my success to your eilorts, add am williri tf t)r nntrf lilnfT 1 fr VfHl Thov nt once mentioned my name for the office of chief clerk in his office, and ho immediate ly iwomised me the "I was told of this promise, and called on'Hobbs soon after, when he reiterated his promise, and when he took possession of his otllce, appointed me duel clerk.

"At what inquired the reporter. "The salary was not hxed. I remained with him during the three months he held th place, hut liavo not for all that time, more than half a month's pay. He told me about a month before he re signed the Comptrollership that he thought of doing so, assigning poor health as his reason, but I urged him to not do it, and was led to beliete he had clinnged his mind with regard to resigning." "You were notified, when he did resign, a few days beforehand; I suppose? "No, I was not. Hobbs didn't treat rrie in a very gentlemanly manner; Tlie first notice we had was when Col.

Burch came in and said, 'Well, gentlemen, I suppose you know there has be a change in this tftlnitifl hf nrw til fVitlntwlltrfr-' MU. I VIIUI We, that is Campbell-and mvself, told him we liad heard nothing of it before. A few day3 after, Hobbs was about to leave the city for his home at. AY overly, without let ting mekuow anything about it." "What is the amount of damages you claim? "Five thousand dollars. I tried to settle the matter by correspondence at first, but, getting no satisfaction from him, eutered suit at the fall term of the Law Court." "The case has been continued two or tliree times, "It was continued once, and was passed over once on account of the absence of defendant's counsel.

It is now set for next week, but I am afraid Hobbs will get an other continuance, we are ready to Have the cas.e tried and. luvc been from the first." -f "Who are the counsel in tlie case" "Col. Colyar is my lawyer, and Hobbs is represented by Quarles, of Clarksville and AicAdiX), ot averly. The reporter, at the close of thi3 inter view, repured to the Court-house, and there copied the papers in the case. Tlie following is a copy of CAPT.

Hobbs demurs to the alld 4th" counts in the plaintiffs declaration, because lie. secta toeiiforceau alleged contract between himself and defendant which IS, on its face a violation of the law of the laud, and against public poluTi to-wit: a saie to him in whole, or in part, of one of tho offices of the State and its emoluments, to-wit: the office of chief-clerk of the Comptroller of the Treasury. McAuoo and for defendant "And to the 1st, 2d and 5th" ctntci- in plaintiff's declaration, the defendant pleads and for plea sayfctbat ho did not contract, promise or agree with plaintiff, as he severally alleges hi said counti iu his said declaration.

Orir Public School Systcm- To the Union and Arhcrleani So inuchlias been said, and so much lias been written on the subject of general education at the public expense, that it would seeni as if nothing now could be brought forward; ueverthelessi some years' investigation of the matter in tile position of Chairman of the Municipal Committee on Public Schools, inclines me to believe that I may he able to offer some views on tlie question which mat" be worthy of consideration. Passing by the abstract question, wliCther children have a moral right to education at the public expense, or whether such education is merely a great charity which should be extended to all, in the interest of society at large, I proceed to discuss as briefly as possible what I think public edu-dation should be, in view of the fact that the people have decided tliat schools shall bo maintained by the public espense. In every branch of manufactures there are various g-a'I -if ability required. The nianwhocan munaje a macliine which stamps out disks of metal subsequently to bb fortned into the wheels of a watch, need not be of the-sime grade of skill and ability with him who shapes and tempers the delicate stripof st eel which forms the springy or who fabricates the minute chain used in the same useful instrument.

Should a manufacturer of Watched insist that each apprentice in his works shall become a skilled maker of springs and chains, fcC would plan no more absurdly than does the educator, who urges that every child in the community shall become learned in all ob-struse and difficult branches" of knowledge. As the wise man will limit the labor of his employees to their capacity, and as r. will give everyone in his employ a fair opportunity to rise to the highest degree of excellence, according to Ills natural ability, so should the furnishers of this great charity (meaning the tax-payers) give to ch and even child the opportunity of acquiring knowledge to his fullest ca-pndty, and there to stop. Let us look at the matter practically. We will take 1,000" children add liegln their education.

In the process of time we will discover that when 500 of them (I assume, of course, an arbitrary and an entirely presumptive proportion iu my illustration, as it may in reality be much larger or much smaller,) have obtained a fairknowl-edge of reading, writing, spelling, geography, and theiudimental brandies of mathematics, they liave mastered about as much as they are capable of. It is true tliat hard labor and perseverance might carry them yet further, but with questionable advantage. The state of tlie case would be discovered, with, of course, possibility of error, by teachers and examiners. YYc will presume, then, that tlie 500 alluded to have received all the education tliat will really be useful to them in after life, aud further drumming into them of book knowledge would be a sheer waste of time, money aud patience. It wonld be wise, of to give such as may possibly be capable of improvement further the full benefit of the to continue to instruct them until tlie fact of their having readied the limit-of tlie useful is established beyond question.

YVe wqjild then continue the education of the remaining 500, carrying them into the more advanced regions of learning. In the course of time, 300 of these (again an arbitrary proportion) will have reached a point where the furtlier prosecution of study would be a waste of time both for them selves and for their teachers. By this time these 300 boys will liave arrived at that age when they may become useful workers, and will have the advantage of a sound, useful common school education, or at least will liave learned all that is in their capacity to master with advantage. Tlie remaining 200 arc boys of more than dinary ability. God has given them larger brains; why, we know not, hut we are compelled to recognize the fact.

We will go ou with these 200 boys, teadnng them ttic higher branches of knowledge, including diemistry, botany, trigonometry, astronomy, etc, preparing them to become in time educators and scientific meu. It may be cliargcd tlint this system ex hibits partiality, but I say, no, nothing of the kind. All start fairly; the prospect and promise of the highest education is offered to each and every sdiolar entered, without distinction of color cr condition, and the effort is relaxed only when it ceases to bo beneficial. It is eminently wise and parental in its character. A jutlidous tiitlier gives his children equal ad vantages he places them at the same school and watches over them with equal care, one of his children in course of time, exhibits great natural ability and a remarkable turn for acquiring knowledge; that boy's ambition is stirred up, and the father looks forward to his becoming a professional or scientific man, and an honor in that way to 'lis family; another, although equal cue is bestowed upon him, develops no ltterary taste, cares nothing for books, and is satis fied with the mere rudiments of education.

When the wise father is convinced that this boy will never succeed as a literary man, he consents tliat he shall quit hi3 studies and turn his attention to some occupation which jloegjiot necessarily require, a classic or advanced education, and the boy, by pursuing his natural bent, also becomes an honoi to his family in his own way. Any other system than tlie one i nave briefly sketched, while it may be to a certain extent parental, savors rather of the method of step-tamer, ine com, me chanical forcing system of education, in which diildren are regarded as mere receptacles to Iks stuffed with complex and mis cellaneous knowledge is well (I was about to sav happily,) illustrated by Charles 11 tt 1 rr! DicHens, in nis story raueu xiaru amies, i I liave no. idea of being able to worK a revolution in scholastic matters, but this is a subject of so vast and so general an interest, that the ideas of every individual thinker desenoat least to lie considered and properly weighed; and if a rational system can be instituted for the mechanical process inw in vogue, its lienefits will redound to the community, and the money expended will be used to the best Jas.

It. V. Tierce, Buffalo, X. Your Discovery needs only a fair trial and it will do all you recommend it to do, and more too. YYIien 1 was fifteen, I caught cold, and for twenty-eight years I have been a perfect wreck of disease, and all the medicines and doctors' hills have run up at times to two and three hundred dollars, and never any better but worse, when I give up all hope last spring of living the summer through.

I received one of your Account Books, and told my husband, after reading it, that it was too late to try further, but he said it was never too late. He went and bought two bottles, aud I found it was helping me very much. Since 1841 I was troubled with Catairli and Sore Throat, aud was almost entirely deaf in one ear, and nvy voice was as dull as could be. There was constant pain in my head. XoW ray head is as sound as a dollar, my voice is "clear, and I have used ten bottles of your Discovery.

It has cured n.e of Catarrh, Sore Throat, Ileirt Disease, Spine Alfec-tion, and Torpid Liver. My liver was very bad. My skin was very rough. YVhen I put my hand on my body it was like fish-scales. 2ow it is- as smooth and soft as a child's.
