Another Wolf in Sleeps Cloth.
iDg.o

The people Of this community have been
favored lately with a series of discourses
from a Tcseread mourner over the lost cause,
Whether he accomplished "the mission
whereunto he was sent" in this place, we do
not know nor pretend to say. But we ven
ture the opinion that be could have found
without very great trouble, many other To-
c%alities, where he would have been more
generally appreciated and respected. 1t is
true, thai a certain class were very attentive
upon his ministrations, that certain class that
used to cOngregato on days set apart by JED.
Davis for thanks giving to Almighty God for
directing them in the paths of rebellion, and
prayer to Him to continue their reign of
crime and vice,
This rsrsrtHd gentleman vas wont on such
holy occasion to meet with the faithful, 3
and by bis words Of encouragement to es-
tablish their hopes, d~issipAte their fears and
renew their zeal, and gladden. their hearts
with his glowing prophecies Of Southern In
dependence. He is a nice specimen to come
into a loyal community with HE clerical
robes deiled with the crimes of treason, and
attempt to preach the truths of that Chisti-
snity, whose grand cardinal doctrine ais
peace on earth and good will TO all men"
The Devil himself could not be guilty Of an
act Of greater impotence. We had comfort
ed ourselves with the assurance that we had
received our measure Of affection with these
cmisssries Of Satan, after the explicit and
emphatic declaration made by our people,
that all such men were regarded by them as
wicked and impiouJ disturbers OF peace in
church aud society. That smiling m2,riduol
occasionally 10 be seen on our streets, whose
c-ountenHnce is a fac-simile Of that of Judas Is
CARROT, when he embraced the Saviour of
N ankiud with a kiss to designate Him 10 the
Infatuated mob Of cruciferS, is a g%rievous
curse aud stigma to our village, but as y
judgement for allowing such men to remain
in our midst, we are TO be punished and an
noyed by their pulpit dissertations. We can
not see how a minister Of the Gospel profess
sing to be a Union man can invite such blood
dyed rebels into his pulpit, after they have
proven their uuGtness TO preach Christ by
acts Of wickelneEs that would bring a blush
Of shame to the brazen face Of a demon.
These pulpit decorators, these prophets Of
Baal and prime instigators Of the rebellion
should smigraie to those localities Of sin
and uugodlincss, where their prominent servi-
ces in ,he DEVILS work of destroying the
Government will rseemmend them TO popu-
lar confidence and esteem. Before they
would sbtrude themselves upon loyal com
munities, IL tAey bad the least lingering
spark Of honor and respect left in their gull
ty souls, they would retire from the society
Of mankind and realize the wretchedneSs
and agony Of him who can truthfully eI-
claim
"Thus lot mo live unseen, unknown;
Thua unlasIented lot ms die;
Nor moand, nor monument, nor stone,
Tell where I lIs."

Union men of East Tennessee, can you en-
dOr0e these the three leading measures o.
the Copperhead policy2
Disgrace and defeat, utter and irrevocable,
is the doom Of this party. 1t cannot carry
such a load Of corruption and guilt into the
with the least prospect Of success.
The first Thursday Of August next will be a
most glorious day of Radical victory in the
Volunteer State.

A Foul SANDER Refnted-.-The
School Fund.

Two Of the speakers in the Rebel Conven-
tion,-Cameron aud Baxter, charged Gov
eFnor Brewnlow aud his State officers With
the crime of robbing the School Fund and
dividing the proceeds. The lie is easily re-
futed. The only State officer who bad any
thing to do With placing the School Fund IN
the Tennessee National Bank Of Memphis,
WAS Treasurer Stanford, who was the only
Johnson Democrat connected with the State
Government. The fund remained in the
keeping of the Governor and Comptroller for
fifteen months, in perfect safety, when DIR.
Stanford went to the Comptroller's Office and
took possession Of II as the legal custodian
OF the School Fund. This step was taken
without the knowledge OF the Governor, II
was the Treasurer's personal act. The Comp
trOller had no discretion in the premises.
His safe had been used to keep the bonds as
a matter of convenience, aRd not Of legal Gu
ty, and be could DO nothing but surrender
them to the officer appointed by law to keep
them.
The Treasurer gave no intlmatiou to Gov
ernor BrownlOw as 10 the use be intended to
make OF the hOpds, and, without consultation
or advice, placed the fnll amount in the
hands Of the President OF the Tennessee
National Bank of Memphis. The Radical
officers Of the State Government were kept
ignorant o! tAe transaction, and the officer
whose fclly aud crime endangered so large a
fund was az original JokEsOH Democrat, not
in sympathy with Gov. Brownlow or his
measures, We trust that Messrs. Cameron
aud Baxter will not fail to make a note Of
these remarkable facts IN their next stump
effort, and that they will point the moral Of
the tale with the Impressive reflection that
Johnson Democrats are not TO be trusted
with places OF honor or proRt.-HHar. Why,

"a Gla ss Exe.

A gentleman tells us the following story
and Vouches for it as having occurred to
himself: Some years ago he lost an eye.
and having taste for. comely personal ap-
pearance, he had the loss of the member
atoned for by the insertion of glass eye
The counterfeit was a. perfect counterpart
OF the other. and except those who were
told of the fact, none would have imagined
him to be the t'bully boy with glass eye
Two or three weeks ago the seeing eye be-
gan to intiamp, and knowing, by sad eX.
perience, the danger of neglecting sore
eye, he determined to consult an oculiSt
and not knowing which to consult, was un-
fortunate enough to fall into the hands of q
man that practices the profession, but who
until a short time ago, has been engaged in
the butchGring business. Calling upon the
tcelebrated oculist and aurist," he told
him his eyes We're affected with disease
and he feared that he would lose them
The quack examined the optics, and pro-
nounced them an easy cure. In fact he
would warrant cure in two months and
he would. heal them up at low figure
only ten dollars week for treatment.
sWhat do you think of my left eye, doc
tor ?" asked our friend, whose faith was
not very strong. 80 .5.fGE 1a-- ~
The doctor examined the left optic very
carefully for several minutes, and then
said:
Il find the epthelium slightly opatic,
with considerable subscutaneous conjunc-
tive in the cellular retina of the cOrnea
9chirrhosis." -s5 VI
'sCan the thing ever be cured ?" asked the
patient, who was convinced the fellow was
an unmitigated humbug.
''Oh, yes, L can cure that in very short
time. i have some vegetable acid which !
ex. ract from plant knoWnonly tomyself
which will render that eye perfectly well
in three weeks"
'Do you really meanto say that 1 can see
out of that eye again? For to tell the TRUTH
/ have not been able to see out OF it for q
long time.'2
$40 be sure do, just as well as do out
of mine. This vegetable acid OF mine is
really wonderful; there are not any eyes
that can resist it. 1t fixes them all."'
s'Then you can go ahead on that one, and
if you fix it all right, will attend to the
other"
- The Doctor took out a syringe, filled ii
with his vegetable acid, and approached oul
friend for the purpose of making an appli-
cation, when he raised his hand to his eye,
opened the eyelids, took the glass optic from
the socket, and handing it to the operator.
said: 81 laa g. 60
i. ssDoctor, / haven't time to stop for treat
ment. You eau keep the eye here, and as
soon as you get it to see will call and gel
it," .rA 2. fii
