THANKSGIVING DAY.--Yesterday was de-
signated by the President to be observed
as a day of thanksgiving throughout the
United States. Our people could not. per-
haps, recognize their obligations to any
one for any great national blessing, and the
day was not observed in Pulaski.

To be sensible while in love is now en-
tirely out of fashion. Il has been noticed
that three-fourths of all the songs and SON.
nets Of lovers are written in sorrow for
unrequited love and breathing revenge for
false vows aud promises. Tennyson took
a more wholesome view of the subject. In
his poem, in Memoriam" he says tsuly
and beautifully:
"Tis better to have loved and lost,
Than never to have loved at ALL
Another poet wrote at an earlier period,
though with less beauty of diction;
"False though she be to me and love.
I'll meier pursue revenge;
For still the charmer approve,
Though depiore the change.
In hours of bliss VIC oft have met
They could not always last;
And. though che present l regret,
Pm grateful for the past!'

= MAN Mistaken and Shot for
Game.

About two weeks AGO two brothers.
/ by the name Of Webb, were engaged
IN turkey hunting, on Spring creek, in
/ Earl y county, when the unfortunate
man, Allan Gay, Jr., together with IL
/ Mr.. Evans, entered the same hammock
from another directon-also engaged
with their towing pieces in the tur-
key hunt. Both Gay and Webb be-
ing experienced in the search for this
valuable game, they were enabled to
initiate the peculiar noise Of the tur-
key TO perfection. The thickness of
the under growth prevented their dis
covering each other, and each mistak-
ing the other for game, cautiously ap
preached the decoying noise, little
thinking OF the imminent peril Of their
respective situations. A portion of
Nr. Gays clothing was at length seen
through an opening in the brush wood,
and the other, excited with the pros
pect OF It tine haul, instantly fred at
the supposed game aud ran toward the
object in order to get Il surer shot when
it flew up.
But Oh reaching the spot, he found
his friend and ueighbOr shot directly
through the throat From the nature
of the wound, Mr., G. was unable to
talk, but with pencil and paper told
where his horse was, and that he tho't
he could reach home, which he did,
with the aid Of his friend. Medical
aid was called in, but little hope was
given for his recovery. Near night,
on the third day after the accident, he
had gone into AN adjoining room, and
seeing the great grief Of his family,
took his pencil, and writing, urged
them not TO grieve, that he was pre-
pared to die, willing TO go. In very
short tine after this he returned 10
his bed, in the other room, laid down.
and in few moments expired The
dec eased WAS an industrious and good
citizen, highly esteemed by all who
knew him, and his untimely demise is
deeply depIored. He leaves a grief,
stricken wife and FIVE or six children.

MARYVILLE, Z. Tenn, May -, 81.

-hAiNA LILLE, L. Sllil., May o..
Mr.. EDITOR: Since my last, exam
incd the Valley OF East Tennessee nine
ty miles farther down, stopping off at va
rlouS points and taking notes of the
country, its soil, minerals, productions,
inhabitants, and general inducements
held out to northern settlers.
As | am seated here | can see the long
range of the Cumberland mountains on
my right, extending from northeast to
southwest, Its numerous peaks rescm-
bling row of huge hay-stacks, to the
tops of which the blue vault of heaven
seems gracefully TO bend. Five miles
southeast, and parallel to the Cumbcr-
land, extends the Clinch mountain, whose
outline is barely visible over the undulat-
ing country before me. Between Cum
berland and Clinch mountains lies How
ell valley, drained by Clinch river. 1t is
as fine valley as / ever saw, ii not the
finest. Looking toward the southeast
behold the towering peaks of the Allegha-
nies, here called Smoky Mountains. They
are exceedingly picturesque, consisting OF
an Irregular succession Of peaks rising
above and beyond each other, forming
numerous little coVes or vallies, watercd
by streams dashing down the steep noun
tain sides with mad impetuosity and form
ing many beautiful cascades. The breadth
Of the entire valley between the Cumber-
land and Smoky mountains is estimated
at sixty miles, the whole of which, and
considerable distance north and south may
be taken i'll at one view, but to describe
its beauty will require an abler pen than
mine. | know not how this view may
strike others, but for myself | must con
fesS 1 am almost enchanted
The healthtulnesS OF climate of this
country is unTivallcd, California and Or
egon not excepted. The inhabitants are
not subjected to either the rigOr of winter
or excessive heat of summer. The citi-
Zens assure me the mercury scarcely ever
rises above IS degrees during the hottest
days.
Maryville, the county seat Of Blount
county lies sixteen miles south of Knox
vile, and in a short time will be connect
cd with it by a railroad which is already
graded. 1t was a handsome village be-
fore the war, of six hundred inhabitants,
but now containing but half that number,
and lying in a most lamentahle condition.
What was once street of fine brick resi-
denceS is now an open common strewn
over with debris. 1t is the seat of Marys-
vile College, which before the war had
from two to three hundred students. An
academy and female seminary are also
located here. Nine miles south of this
place and twenty-five from Knoxville are
Mont Vale Springs-the Saratoga Of the
South. These waters are said to produce
astonishing effects upon dyspeptics, and
are regarded by prominent men rs the
most important mineral springs in the
/ United States, if not in the world.
The mineral resources of East Tenncs-
see require special notice, which we will
give in a future article. SIGMA

One of WiZ's counsel named Louis

TO his native den in Europe on visit and
no doubt feeling much Drawer than he
did at any time during the war, issued 4
manifesto in favor of the great brute, in
waich our soldiers, our officers, our gov

as one might expect JefDavis bootblack,
to denounce them. This choice produc-
ton is very strangely finding its way in

bers testified to his cruelty, but all these
men, with thousands of others, are not
to be believed, but bought attorney and
