It flindered aioms. nc cow have to chronicle the lailure of another, called the Southern Tire Insurance Company, chartered by the urownlQW .Legislature in I860, and set on ir swindling purposes, doubllesa. If wtiow receiving the wages of its iniquity.- lla oouwern was more acute than someoi me-contemporaneous spawn. It was named Southern" it was framed uPon uueral Plan good and responsible old resident citizens were induced ts con- nect their names with it and it was bap- l,Beu aa a genuine ana nonest institution, Kobert ihompaon, as good a name as auorn? our commercial list, was its first I resident. R. H. Thompson, another gentlensan wuo is without reproach, was his successor bQth leading businea men 1 ii this city, and both upright and punctual men. 1 lie institution nourished as few I bo young nau done. It rapid T ex tended its business throughout Ten and into Georgia, Alabama, ncssee. Mississippi ami Arkansas. The President, being daily engagedvJeft the business in the hands of the Biibordinates.-the princi pal of whom was one John R. Berry, from Indiana, who, it seems, held the purse- strings and pulled all the wires. Ho an. pointed agents, gave directions, and car- ! ned forward tho business of his confeder- ates. He issued policies for cash and I notes, received the money, and was gen-1 eral factotum of tho concern. Ho went on swimmingly. Bat a premature caft on the policy holders for more money, ex cited their suspicions, and they entered into an investigation. This has proceeded in this city for several days, resulting yes- terdayln the filing of a bill for winding up the concern, by Judge B. L. Ridley and Hon. Charlei Ready, of Murfreej- boro, and Judge Bsxter, of this city. Upon this bill they obtained writs of injunction and attachment, and the appointment of a receiver. The following is a brief synopsis of the bill : Tl. r. l.:H 1 . lature chartered the Fire Insurance Com Aim uiii tuoitca iiiil in miiiim I .ac- pany, and provided (hat the persons named in the charter, to wit: John R. Berry, Robt. Thompson, Wright and TVner. euuuiu uecuiue a Doay corporate and politic, who, with others thereafter, to U. come stockholders and policy holders, might organize and becomo directors of said company. Ihat they should have power 10 cieci aircctora by themselves. 1 That they met. and without eonniiltaiinn with the stockholders, re-elecieJ them- ClKSCi That thcas agents proceeded to trave. throuch the States of Ten NNortn Carolina and Alabama, and re- I , iti roi, nnTuj ami ...-. 1 -. I : 7 r - suranca to the amount of $400,000, receiv- uuu iuueu inn uit'A n in- ,nf, o premiums at leat ?lOfnnn That the charter provided that the di'reci- ors might invest tho nspeia nf it.B pany io any property or thing which they, in their dissreiion, might regard ai most advantageons to the policy holders. Thattbe charter furtherprovided that tbe directors might issue guarantee notes to the amount of $500,000, which were not to be used unless the assets of tbe com pany were deficient. The bill charges that J. R. Berry was the principal man ager of the concern that he was the act ing secretary, president, treasurer, and executive committee; was not worth one dollar; had failed'in other Mtablishments of a similar character in Indiana, and had inaugurated this policy fir the pur pojea of fraud and speculation. That the eaid Berry drew the charter and eagineered it through the Legislature fraudulently. That he practised a fraud in the election of the directors: that he practised a fraud in executing his guaran tee notts to the amount of 140,000, when he was cot worth 140 cents ; that on said note, thus executed to the company, as a guarantee note, he has received six percent, interest. And his only object in executing this note was to increase tiis salary. That he had received in this way, to be paid out of the ca-,h premiums paid in by the stock holders, 5t Icasi $13,000 per annum at his salary; that the whole amount of cash pre miums paid into the office by the policy holder had been absorbed in the paymect f the salaries of r.fiicerp, and that the grerter part had been received by Berry, who was or discharged thedutitsof Presi dent and of Secretary and Treasurer, and Executive Committee and all, and received the salaries eTeach, amounting to a fabu lous rum, and that in this way the cash premiums paid in by the policy-hnideis had been absorbed. The bill further charges that the term "Southern" had been adopted as a prefix to encourage Southern people to take policies, when in truth it was a Northern carpet bag concern, composed of bankrupts, Northern binkrup's there being no Southern man in the company. That frauds had been practiced in entries on the barks and especially in antc-dating an entry as of !J September, purporting to withdraw as of that date the guarantee uotes, executed by Berry and Thomjson, and other, when in truth and in fact, the same was not sigmd by the President until since his re turn from New York, a few days ag-. The bil charges that the whole thing is bogu' capital, as'C-lts, men, charier, and all and is a must ridictilom and shallow swindle, aud that every man concerned in practicing such a fraud upon a gallant, coufiding and unsuspecting people, ought not only lo be held liable for hia fraud, but ought to xercive the penaltieiof tbe North Carolina whipping-post for the mn and folly of hia frauds. The bill seeks to attach all the asset in tho keeping of the company, tho books and notes and cah on deposit and the private property of Berry, a- d asks for the appointment of a Receiver and an injunc tion at to all the suits, wherever instituted agaln;t the policy holders, and that the note of tho palipy holders be delivered up to be cancelled, end especially that whatever private; property the defendant Barry niaT l ave, may be attached, and especially "A is black hone and buggy," bought with the ItroCt'efiit of tlio premium caU paid by the policy holders. Col. Peebles, of Williamson, we learn has been appointed Receiver, and has taken possession of the office, ihe key of the safe, tho policy notes, etc , etc. The committee of poliuy holders who (have conducted the investigation, and caused tlicse.proceedingf, have also caused the arrest of Mr. Berry on the charge of obtaining money by false preleucts, who is now held under bonds, to appear bi.ra Etquire Casaetty for a preliminary trial this morutng. Thns it is tbat .ratiH runs its course. It affords us pleamirc to etato that the investigating committee acquit tho Presi dent of the company, Mr. R. II. Thompson, of all frauds which have been practiced upon the community in the name of the company Hn- oi'tIiursl:rzi Kotttl Ascuiu 111 Ihe jsnutli; of Hie dnmpuuy.

Toe ball given last night bjr the Cale donia Society, in uiemo'ry of bt. Andrew Avas in every respect, a grand success. At an carl hour, the old Female Academy buildings cn Church street, was the scene 0f ccneral bustle, and bv 9 o'clock at night the spacious concert room of the building was crowded nearly to tuffocation. tho at tendance being by far tho largest ever seen .;m;i,r .; 5n Kwbvillft. The leading members of the society expected to il, f.mtli,,. f.,vi wlm I.a.l .mllinrPil around the festive board in days gontfby. and discussed the merits of a well boiled "haggis," but they were agreeably u;. asto'shedto findolhers heildesthoaewho were numbered with the well known clans, and wero joyous beyond measure at, the success which crowned the reunion The Tresident, Dr. George S. Blackie.at the opening of the ball, delivered a short address of welcome in behalf of tho society, and stated the object of the Cale donian Association to be tho affording of brotherly relief to poor and distressed Scotchmen, their widows and orphans. He also told why they celebrated St. Andrew's Dav. St. Andrew, who was the first called to the Apoatleship, was Baid to have intro- duced the gospel into Scotland twenty uoarn after Chrint. and relnmino- to Achaia there suffered martyrdom. His bones were subiequently taken to Dumfrecshire. near Edinburg, and there interred, bo that that abbey was a place of resort for many cen turies, lie was also adopted as the patron Saint of Scotland, and bis firmness and in- integrity of character are peculiarly the attributes of the mountain race Scotchmen the world over, hold eacred this day, and make it a time for vivial intercourse and exchange of mutual expressions of friendr ship and hospitality. After tbe welcome address, Donald Clark, the old niner. marched down the centerof the room, and with his faithful bag pipes, made the hall ring with the national airs oi ins native lanu, "ine uampoeus "W .... ifmt ft t aro coming" and "Wha'll be King bu! Charlie," lound a genuine response in th hearts of those who duly appreciated the clarion notea of Scotland's martial music, and many no doubt wandered in memory to the time when the treacherous Dane met the thistle in his path, a circumstance which exposed the treachery of the foe, and put the invaders to route and flight, "Kano me impunc lacessit." Tho members of tbe society appeared nn ibii occasiou with their beautiful badges, received only a short timo since from Edinburg." These balgea are made of white metal, with the thistle, and Scot land's national emblem encircled. But to tho dance. It has been many years since we have seen so many coupl on the lloor at one time, and when we left the building there were merry hearts an nimble feet engaged in the general festivi ties. The lassies, ' many of whom were dressed in plaids, were keeping slop to th music of the pipes, and the lads were en iovine themselves finely. Donald Clark appeared as usual in his full suit of tartan, May tho society have many more such re unions, and may wahave the pleasure of attending for years lo come. 8UNIAT SCHOOL, Moulhly Mcdlns or SnbbatU Kcliools nt JIcKenilrce I.arjre Andlcnce and Elonncnt AddrcRM by XI. E. Jonef, Esq. The monthly meeting of McKendree Sunday School Society was held at the Church on Sunday afternoon, embracing an attendance from the pupils and teach ers of the churches of the city. The audi ence was unusually large, including Iaw yer, physicians and a large body of the moit intelligent and exemplary people of the city. The addresi of II. E. Jones, E:q , was one of the most eloquent and impres sive that we have ever listened to upon tbe subject, and was received aa such by his hearers, who paid it the tribute of wrapt attention, and whose expressions of admiration at its conclusion were un measured. We heartily congratulate the speaker upon his splendid effort, and the society upon its wholesome entertainments and its admirable progress. We are more than pleased to learn that by a vote of the society the address of Mr. Jones is soon to be published, as we are sure its circu lation and perusal will do great good and prove a rich treat to all who read and ponder. It should be scattered through out the land and read by all. Filncntlonixl. Rev, Dr. Mack, m" Maury county, reports to Superintendent Eaton, that he has au thorized thirty-five persons to act as teach ers. He hai thirty scholars already coin- mcacs.J. ten of which are for tho colored children, and thatthe people have, in general, become favorable to the move ment. There are fifty eight free schools in operation in Roane county, some of which are about to close. Mr. Blunt, of BradUy county, reports fifty-one pjrsons engaged in teaching school in his county. Also, that a successful inpctimnf the Teachrrs Association wa held there. There are forty schools in operation in Davidson countv. There are more to open yet.

Many of our readers are already , aware that tho Catholics of this city and vicinity recently rnirchastd a picco of ground ad joining Mount Olivet for a cemetery, for which they paid a. goodly sum, being determined to have the moat eligible Bite that could be'obtained, whatever the cost, The committee having charge of the work went to work well, a'nd'succeeded in laying out the grounds, and placing around them a handsome and substantial fence, and Sunday last was appointed for tha conse cration. A more beautiful day could not have been desired for the occasion; the sun shone brightly, and the air was sufficiently bracing lo render tho marehing pleasant. The post band Jiad been engaged for the occasion, and all parlies concerned met at the cathedral at one o'ciock precise- The nroccion was formed in few minules, and moved down Cedar street to the Square, a body "of nnllea leadinz. followed by the band. Next came four carriages, contain ing the Right Rev. P. tA. Feehan; Bishop of the Diocese ; Very Rev. J. T. Jarboe, V. G.; Rev. M. Meagher, Rev.P.F.Coyle, and Rev. W. J. Rives; the members of the church choir, and six acolytes. The members of the Society of St. Vincent da Pn1 followed, on foot, the President, Mr, . . . . I P. Olwill, leading. This society was fol- lowed by S .TfmV Total Ahjt nenca I Society, M. Kerrigan, Chris. Powers and i Jerry Buckeley, acting as marshals. About one hundred girls "Children of Mary" and "Angel Guardiana" followed in car riages, and behind them followed citizens generally, in carnages. The entire proces sion was nearly a mile in length, and con tained a larce number of vehicles the JVcm and Times says "fully one hundred and fifty." The rouleTollowed was through Market street to Lindiley Avenue, thence along tho Lebanon pike to the ground- about tBree miles from the Square, A handsome gateway has been erected by Mr. Sexton, through which the procession passed to an elevated spot souio Bixly yards from the entrance, "where a tempo rary platform had been prepared for the Bishop and clergy. Around the plallorm all the people (variously estimated from two to three thousand) assembled, 4he children, being nearcjt the Bland. The Bishop then delivered a very intereiting and touching address, appropriate for the occasion, which was listened to with great attention, and drew tears from many an eye. Fine crosses had been creeled on tho ground, forming themselves a cros? one in the middle, and one at each of the four r-inlinnl nninta east. weal, north and ' x - south. After the address, tho Bishop, with stole, cape and mitre, accompanied by the priests, and preceded by the Rev. P. f. Coyle and the acolytes, proceeded to the middle cro3s, the choir and tho children following in procession ; where, after pray ing that God would blew, sanctify, and consecrate this cemetery, etc, the litanies wore recited kneeling, whilst the choir sang them. They then made the circuit of the cemetery, sprinkling it with holy water, the attendants reciting the MlitTcrc. Arrived at the first croas, tho bitbop re cited the prayer, prescribed in the ritual, incenccd the cross and placed thereon three lighted candles one on the top and oae on each arm to signify that the lively faith of the Christian in the holy mysteries of the Trinity and tho redemp tion of maukind by the cross, constituted our hope in a glorious resurrection. The bishop then proceeded to the other crosses in turn, reciting the prescribed psalms and prayers, and performing the same ceremonies at each of the four cros-os erected at the cardinal points. The bishop next proceeded to the middle cross, where he read the prescribed prayer, prefaces, etc, and then gave his Eolemn benediction to the assembled multitude. During all this ceremony the choir and the girls sing alternately, the former led by Mr. and Mrs. Beatiman, and the latter by Misses Maggie Farrell and Annie Ten fin. roast. A few words as to the origin of this cer emony may not be amiss. All Catholics believe that our Divine Redeemer, in as suming a human holly and soul, made hu manity a partaker of tbe Divine ualure, thereby elevating it to a supernatural dig nity. Catholics become incorporated with this deified humanity, by the reception of the Holy Eucharist, and hence the rever ence paid, after death, to the bodies of the faithful, who have been thus incorporated with Chri.-t in life; their remains can only be appropriately consigned to earth that ha been blessed, sanctified and consecrated fjr that purpose, where naught can disturb or meddle with their sacred dust until tho aneel calls to judgment. This feeling we see expressed in the moat forcible mannerin Rome, in the very first days of ( bnstianity, when the Christians eagerly sought for, and exposed themselves to the moit imminent danger to procure the bodies of tho martyrs, to enttr them in tho catacombs, where, at least, they would bo safe from Pagan pro fanation, and no sooner did persecution ceaie, than we find the sacred places over ahadowed bv the temples consecrated to God e.igerly sought for as " resting places" for the dead. The difficulty of finding places spaciom enough around the templet for tha interment of the dead iu laige cities and towns, and sanitary reasons likewise, compel tho selection of places sit apart lor that purpose, and tho?e placei thus selected, blessed, sanctified and consecrated, receive the blessed remains of the faithful, aud preservo them to tho day of the general resurrection when, in tha words of the ritual, " free from the bonds of sin, returned to eternal felicity and numbered amongit tlin nuemhlv of the Saints, they may find their kind and merciful Lord, who is eter nal lif-, and exnltingly praise Him, the Author of life with all His holy one", for ever." Now, a word or two as to the societies which participated in this grand proces sioii. The St. Vincent do Paul is a purely charitable soriuty7organized nearly three years ago, and presided over by Mr. P. Olwiil. It has about sixty-members, who visit and relieve the poor at their dwell- in"!. They now relieve, regularly, about fourteL-n families, the heads of whom are either lame, blind, or otherwiso disabled. St. Joseph's Total Abstinence Socioly was orgintzcd on tho 31st of May last, when the following gentlemen were elected officers : President Rev. P. F. Coyle, Vice Presidents Martin Kerrigan and. Charles Morley. Secretary E. E. Jones. Treasurer P. Cltary. Librarian M. J. McKee. The society meets at two o'clock, iu the basement of the Cathedral. It has uinety members, and a fine library for their use. They made a splendid turn out on Sunday. The children of Mary and tho Angel Guirdian Society we explained last week. Go to C. L.

A little over a week ago a frightful tragedy was enacted in Fentress county in this Stale, near tho Kentucky line. The Oourhrr-Journal, of Louisville, has the fol lowing particulars : Thete lived in that section a family composed of an old lady, some eighty years of age, arm her three grandchildren one a young lady, another a boy of twelve, and the third a small girl In tho neighborhood was a man named Logadon, ill-favored of face and of little Vi O no .,nrA mac 1 Of O m a yf't DUUiD "6"'- "" ' l" ,a l" luc "au " , . . , uer possession a consiuerauie aiuuuni o money,, tbe 'back pay ot her dead son wno uad been a soldier, anu tie re solved to s;cnre it at all hazards.

AH the money he found, however, waa $75i and with this he fled. The boy, who for tunately survived, next day told the tale of the bloody work of" the night, end the sheriff of Fentress county, as soon as he could be notified, started immediately in pursuit of the murierer, with a warrant. He passed through Clinton counly, in Kentucky, where he was joined by tbe sheriff of Clinton, and together the two sheriffs made their way to Hustonville, Lincoln county. Here they captured tho murderer at the home of his father, even before he had changed Ihe clothing he wore when he committed the terrible crime, and which bore the blood-stains of cruel minder. It was found that Logsdon, on reaching his father's boue, had sent for a heavy lock which he designed placing on the door, and that ho had also sent a woman and a boy for powder, lead and cap.. These parties were detained however. It was evident he intended making a desper ate resistance, but the officers experienced little or no difficulty in effecting his arre;t He was taken back to Fentress county, where he will doubtless be made to suffer the extreme penalty of the law. I'lreiil Soiiiervlllc, TenuCNsee. We learn from the Somerville Falcon that a destructive fire occurred in that place on Tuesday night Iat. The fire wa3 first discovered about eight o'clock, in a smoke house on the lot of Mr. W. T Thomas. A strong wind was blowing, and the fire was soon communicated to the residence of Judge G. W.

W Starry, our town constable, and J. B. Staf ford, in which the latter was killed and officer Starry received a ptinful wound from a pistol shot in the hand. Mr, Starry made a narrow escape.

Tennessee bonds were quoted in New York yesterday at G9gc for the old, and CSJc for the new. The New York Herald stales that there is a feud on the subject of government se curities between the rival banking' houses in that city, which is likely to result in a protracted and very interesting contest. Tho "bulls" are pushing bonds with all tneir sirengtn, auu are getting up a "corner" on the "shorts," who are under selling and ordering bonds from Europe, where tbe price is from one lo one and a half per cent below home rates. The situ ation is thus described in the circular of a prominent banking firm who are reported lo be a parly to the contest. The circu lar is dated the evening of Xov. 25.
