the pleasure of hearing Col. Davidson,
but are prepared to expect, rare enter
tainment in these addresses from the en-
thasiastic tributes to his eloquence by our
contemporaries Of the press. We have al
ways had the warmcst admiration for Irish
eloquence and held, that could it be purg-
cd of extravagant hyperbole and the ex-
cesses Of too riotous fancy, it would be
the most fascinating school Of oratory.-
Col. Dawson is said to possess all the cap.

most exacting taste. We feel assured that
our citizens will greet with full house

sa- We spent most of Christmas week

ssF We spent most of Christmas week
in tho country, where we enjoyed ourself
to the utmost degree. To one so closely
confined as we are compelled to be, by the
rigorous demands of our business, which
requires our constant personal attention,
q visit TO the country is indeed like an
ossis in q desert, and contrasts most pleas
antly with the routine through which we
have to pass when at our Office. We had
che pleasure of attending several social
parties, where we were surrounded by a
,hrong of pretty girls aud gallant young
men, for which Montgomery County is SO
noted; and "Cupid the little god. of happy
lovers spread his glitteriug pinions and
waited the balm of love to the hearts of
all" We did not entirely escape his darts
though we are not morally toounded. But
Christmas with its pleasant parties, and
merry balls has passed away, and we are
again at our post, ready to attend to the
duties Of our Office, and especially receipt
ing for subscriptions, job-work and adver-
Using. Please call up.

that he had the pleasure of trip on the

and says he was SO much pleased with her
polite and gentlemanly officers, Mr.. Nolen,
Mr.. Shaw aud Mr.. Moss, that he almost
has his consent to go down with them
again, but finding IL impossible to go, he
hopes some of his friends will, and receive
the Princely treatment that he met with.
Clarksville chronicle. (Clarksville, Tenn.) 1857-1865, 1859-01-07

sv A man, residing near Charlotte,
Dickson county, during Christmas and
under the influence of liquor, attempted
TO murder his wife and children. They
escaped, however, and it is supposed that
he then set IRE to the house and shot him
self, as his bones we're found lying by his
gun-barrcl. He was man of intemper-
ate habits, and his fate is an illustration
OF the danger that attends the use of in
toxicating drinks. But to preach temper
snce, nowadays, is waste of words, the
voice of experience, even, is unheeded.
