II was stated last week that Gov. BROWN
Low would. in his message TO the extra session
Of the Legislature to be convened in short
time, recommend the repeal of the act passed
a' TIE previous session in reference to legal adj
yeriisin", AID commonly known ms the Pauper
Press Law. 1t is not at all likely the Governor
would be Influenced by anything we could say
on the subject. but the law is so manircstly un.
just, so paipab'y at variance with that clause
Of the Constitution which provides against
class legislation, and is so suggestive Of future
litigation in regard to land sales, that we
must express hope he will recommend
lis prompt repeal and that the General Assem-.
bly, will give heed to the suggestion. We be.
i5vs the knoxville Wig and the Nashville
Press and Times are about the only radical
papers in The State that approach anything
Ike general circulation, or that can justly
lay claim to Journalistic enterprise. Most
CT the others, we have reason TO believe, arc
from some cause or other, quite limited in Tho
number Ct their readers, ard these general,
Of class not iitely to be intnros.cd much il

1t is mattar Of very little pecuniarv inter
est 20 Us. There i, Il radical paper printed n
this place, and had the law in question nevc
been passed. only the smallest moicty Of tina
sort Of advertising would have FOUND Its wa,
to oar columns. But as the object of all ad
vcrtising is p'tIGc!ty, we think the law Shout,
be repealed. and hope the Governor. and tn
Legislature too, will give the subject carl.
and decisive attention.

We beg pardon, humbly on our knees, of our
fair friends of the rural districts. We do,
indeed. If they only knew how devotedly we
love all the ladies we know they would readily
forgive us. The communication below, from
the Sweetwater F0rGIunner of last week, en-
plains the sin of omission Of which we We're
guilty, and for which we propose to make all
the PREPARATION in our power
Mr.. Editor: Inotice in the ATHENS POST,
of the 10Th, that the editor extends thanks TO
the ladies of Athens for the many good things
which he found on the tables on the 9th, and
the peculiarly artistic style in which they had
gotten them up, without saying word about
the ladies from the country who had lent a
helping band. / think this was doing these
ladies great injustice. From what saw COM
ing in on the morning of the oath there were
wagon loads of things good and nice, aside
from those furnished by the Athens ladies;
which if left away you would have found hui
scant supply of those good things to feed
twelve hundred people. These nice, energcti,
ladies of the country have but little encour
agement to assist again. | write in their be
half. "Justicc to whom justice is due"

Another Homicide.

CURED in the sth civil district of this county,
between young man named KNOX and Mr..
SAM. WoMACK, which resulted in the death
Of the latter. There are several reports afloat
ss to the cause Of the atlray and the particulars
Of the llling--thc most current of which is,
that ou The DAY mentioned, Knox, in company
with another party whose name we did not
learn, repaired TO where Woinack was at
work making shingles, and demanded that the
latter should rctract some disparaging remarks
which he aucsol he had made against his
,KnoX's) mother. An alteration Of words en-
sued, and the two finally got into fight which
Terminated as above. 1t is said that Knox
struck his ictm on the side of the neck with
a large drawing knife, severng the juglar vein
also, stabbed him several times in the breast
anu apdoren-- killing him instantly. Knox
1t is reported, has ncd the country. He is said
to be n here youth, not more than seventeen OF
eighteen years Of age. Womack, we believe
leaves family.
The above is about the substance of the &c.
count Of the homicide as detailed to us.
