The Petitioner, John II. Walker
filed his petition on the 31st March
1869, againet Mary Jane Walker,
his wife, praying "a divorce yiu,
cMo matin'onil from the said Mary
and that she be permitted to rc.
sumo her maiden name Of Mary J.
Few" on the ground, that few
'months after their marriage, his
wife became exceedingly unhappy
in her disposition, unkind in her
treatment to him, used violent,
abusive and mcnacing language to-
wards him, and constantly manifes-
ted determined malignity towards
him. She accompanied her Ian
guagc with blows on several occa-
slons. filler hostility, violence
and malignity to him increased, un-
til at length it became intolerablc,
and they willfulIy separated about
November, 1860, since which time
they have lived apart"
The parties were duly married on
the 31st July, 1856, and deed of
separation executed by them the
Both january 1861. The Defcn-
dant having failed to plead, answer
or demur within the rule, the PC
tition was taken pro co,sfcsso on the
18th May, 1869. Testimony was
taken before the Clerk in support
of the allie egations Of the petition
and reported to the Court. One of
the witnesses says Of Defendant: ::
"She had a cross Grabbed DISPOSE
tlon." cit was impossible for any
reasonable minded man to have
lived in peace and happiness with
her" Another witness says she els
n high tempered woman hard to
get along with; wanted her own
way entirely" thinks it utterly
impossible that they will ever live
together again." Another witness
say the petitioner "treated her
Kindly and affectionately; attemp-
ted to live in peace with her; she
became dissatisfied without cause;
became i'll and cross to him; at one
time struck at him; she constantly
got worse in her disposition and ac-
tons toward him till their separa-
tien."

The Local Paper.

The following tribute to the To-
cal paper, from the "Chicago Re-
publican" contains so much trutb
that we transfer. it to our columns
and commend it to the careful con-
slderatlon Of our business men and
those Interested in our town:
W hat tells us so readily the STAN
dard OF town or city as the an
pearancc Of its paper? And it's
youth or its age can as we'll be de.
fined by the observing as by per-
sonal notice. The enterprise of it's
citizens is depicted by its adver-
tlsements' their liberality by tho
looks OF the paper. Some papers
show good, solid, healthy founda-
ii III, plcthoric purses, and we'll to
40 appearance generally; others
showa a striving to contend with tho
grasping thousands around them.
An occasional rnctcoric display in
It's columns of tclcgraphic or local,
or OF editorial, shows what it can do
If it had the means, but it can't
continue in the expensive work un-
til support comes which ought to
DC readily granted. Take YOUR
home paper, it gives you moro
news of Immediate interest than
New York or other papers; Tt
talks for you when other localities
belle you; it stands up for your
rights; you always have champion
in your home paper; and those
who stand up for you should ccr-
taiilly be well sustained. Your
interests arc kindred and equal, and
you must rise or fall together.
Therefore, it is to your interest to
support you home paper, not grud.
gingly, but in liberal spirit; as q
pleasure, not as disagrecablc'duty;
bat as an investment that will am
ply pay tho expenditure.

Mr.. BELMONT. It is reportcd.
among other party reforms, that Mr..
Balmont is to be discontinued as
Chairman of tho National Democrat
lc Executive Committee, q position
which he has held since the. time Of
MIR. Buchanan. The charges brought
against Mr.. Belmont arc ineffloiency,
indifference and unpopularity. The
defeat of Seymour is partially ascrib.
cd to him, and it is thought that the

THE CHILDREN.

The following be, rtiful poem was writ
by CT aries Dickens:
When the lessons and tasks arc oil ended,
Aud tho school for the day is dismissed.
And the little ones gather round me,
To bid me 60 ID n g:it u I'd b. ksEe!;
Oh, the little white arms that encivcle
My neck in tender embrace!
Oh, the smiles that are halos Of heaven,
Shedding sunshine Of love on my face!
Aud when they are gone sit dreaming
OF my childhood, too lovely to last:
OF love that my heart will remember,
When it wakes to the pulse of the past
Ere the wtr i and its wickedntss nademe
A pntner of sorrow and sin;
When the glory of God was about me.
Aud tue glory os gladucss within.
Oh, my heart grows weak rs woma"'s,
And the fountains of feeling will flow,
When l think of the paths steep and stony,
Where the feet Of the dear ones must go;
Of the mountains of sin hanging Ger them,
Of the tempest cf Fate blowing wild;
Oh there is nothing OH heart half So holy
As the innocent heart Of child!
They are idols of hearts and of households;
They are angels of God i'll d;sgnisc
His sunlight still sleeps in their tresscs
His glory still CLEANS in their eyes;
Oh, those truaDts from home and from heaven
They have made me rlere manly aud mild
And know how Jesus could lik-n
Tlo or r..l
ask not life for the dear ones,
All radiant ms others have done
But that life may have just enough shadow
To temper the glare OF the sun;
would pray God to g:a",l them f:oin evil
But my p aver woil.i bound back to myself
All seruph may pray 70: sinner,
But sinner must pray for himself
The twig s so easily c J Il,

iIeSerVe tne Republic and lei
the Debt 10.
Ex-Prcsidcnt Johnson was scrc-
nadcd at the Lamar lIousc, in Knox
V!llc, Tenn, Oh the 17th inst, and
III response to calls from the usac,n-
3lcd crowd, addressed them as ;oi-
lows:
ES-FEEsIDENT JoHNsoN's SPEECH.
FELLow-ClrIzENs: I am not in
Knoxville at this time for the ma
KING OF a studied address to the
people; but'being called upon, and
unexpectedly, tonight, 1 will tender
you my thanks for this reception.
l assure you know how to apprc-
cl"tc reception of this kind, for
an impromrtu gathering Of tho pco-
PIE to listen to one who has been so
often honorcd by them, always
means to me moro than the dry and
l"rccd reception, gotten up to or
der. But being called upon, and
hndlng this large assembly waiting
to hear me, there are one or two
things which will say.
We have just passed through an
important and excited canvass.
The verdict of the people Of Ten
ncsscc has been rendered, and of
the dccison you arc all aware. A
popular revolution has taken place
in our State.
Ours Is q popular Government,
both State, and Federal. There
have been but two popular forms of
government since the earliest histo-
y of the world. One an absolute
government, in which the power is
vested III one man, who wjclds en-
tire sway over his subjects. Such
government is an empire or a
dcspotic monarchy. The other is
one i'll which all power is lodged in
the hands of the people. Such is
n republic. In our Government
we assume that all power is lodged
in the great mass of the people,
and the ballot box is the medium
or conductor which converts tyran-
ny from the heads of the people.
For the purpose of illustrating the
subject 1 shall consume a little of
your time.
a POPULAR FORM OF GOVERNMENT.
This is a popular Government.
1t is democratic form Of govern
mcnt. [ Use the word "dcmocrat-
ic' in a governmental sense. But
the government we have had since
the war closed has been somewhat
removed from that of republican
form. This is q representative re-
public-a representative democra-
cy. In the recent election III this
State the people, in the exercise of
their power, through the ballot box
have decided in favor of consti-
tutional republic. There is, fellow
citizens, no liberty without a con-
stitution. 1t was a maxim laid
down by the old Greeks that "the
soul Of liberty is law" Prior to
the late election we have had, here
in Tennessee, powers administered,
in part, as of limited monarchy.
So in the Federal Government.
Congress has been for the past four
years, omnipotent. There has,
been no restraint upon Congress.
In. their actions they have consulted,
merely their own discretion. When
we examine closely the principles
which underlie monarchial goverh-
ment has been swinging from the
one extreme to the other of both
forms of government III

best contrivancc ever made to mako
"chait Of the king better than the
poor mans corn." It is cracking
the nut, taking out the contents
] anu throwing the shell to the peo-
Iple.
A COMPARISON.
How does this matter stondq
Take the widow of a soldier-what
money do they pay her in. The
oonoioluer goes to tho Treasury,
presents his coupons and is paid in
Sold and Silver. At the next desk
the poor widows pension is paid in
sllnplastcrs. She goes to market
ana pays dollar and halfs worth
for a dollar. Itcll you to place tho
right men i'll power. 1t is the de-
llberate design of men at the head
OF your Government to change its
character. Unless you get back
INTO the safe mooring of the Con-
s'tutlon within the next four years
you arc gone. You may talk of
parties, bat this is the great ques-
ton.
CONCLUSION.
[ thank the people of Tcnncssec
1or the kindness and regard with
"'ich L have been welcomed all
over the State I have no conccal-
mcnts to make. I never plavcd
'alse to the people. I never con-
ccaied Fly motives. IF our Gov
cfhmchv IS ever restored then will
iho principle enunciatcd in nv two
last annual messages to Congress
DC the basis OF the restoration.
In Tennessee I VII live; here +
expect to die. Ny hearts wish is
to occupy a proper place in your cs-
tccm. When passions shall cease
ana reason resumes her sway, I
Will have no fear Of the position
will occury in your regards.
Good night.
