Universal Suffrage in The Mountains.

Un1versai SuukaSe IN tue nOuuthiuss
The following extract from a recent
letter to the Knoxville Whig, shows the
progress of the universal suffrage move
ment among the mountains:
Our candidates for the State Senate,
r 0. Bowden (RsdicaD and Capt. M. r.
Millsaps CONSERVATIVE, are in favor Of
universal eufrsnchisement. They both
served with honor and distinction in the
Federal army. They are both of Fem
tress county, and are both men of abil-
ity. Fentress, Morgan, Scott, Cumber-
land and 0verton counties compose the
district. Also, Mr.. Keeth, of Morgan,
the present incumbent, and Mr. Scott are
spoken of as candidates for the same po-
sition. But it is presumed they will with.
draw.
The candidates for the House are toe
numerous to mention in this connection.
All, believe, are in favor Of repeating
the present franchise law.

How Much does it Cost :?

1t will only cost you one dollar to buy
a bottle of edward Wilder's Chill
Tonic which is purely vegetable, and
will not only cure you or any of your
family Of Chills and Fever, Fever and
Ague, and every form, type and variety
Of Malarial or Paludal Fever or Aff'ec-
tons, but will entirely drive them from
the system, which no other Chill medicine
now made will do. Don't buy any of the
old and worse than valueless nostrums,
but use only Edward Wilder's Chill

cases.

ElOpement-A Daring Young Lady
Descends from window, Meets her
Lover ana El0pes with Him.

Descends from n window, Meets her
Lover ana El0pes with Him.
From the Union and American. July 1871
We learn from reliable source the fol-
lowing facts of an elopment which occur
red at Coles station, on the Northwestern
and Nashville railroad, on Tuesday last,
and, as requested, we refrain from men
tioning any names:
A young man living near Cole station
has been paying his attentions to beau.
tifal young lady for several months.
Being advised by several friends he
popped the question to the parents,
who Immediately refused him. The two
youngsters then made up plan to run
away, and named last Tuesday night at
eleven clock for their departure. The
father got wind of this little plan by some
means or other, and when that night
came he locked all the doors and armed
himself with double-barreled shotgun
and concealed himself behind the house.
In the meantime the young lady had been
adopting some means of escape herself.
Finding all the doors locked she secured
long rope and fastening it to the bed-post
she descended to the ground and met her
over, who was ready with two horses, to
carry them away. The old man having
waited some time, dozed off to sleep and
never woke up until late in the night.
He proceeded to the house and thence to
his daughters room, and upon entering
and finding his daughter absent, he was
greatly vexed. She had written him a
note, saying that when he'would see her
again she would be married. The run
away couple went to Franklin and were
there united in the bonds OF matrimony.
They returned home on Wednesday, and
we're met by the father in a friendly
manner. He at last consented to give
them q fine dinner and party. This
place is said to be noted for elopements
the majority of parents being opposed
to marriages.

The Water Valley (Miss.) Eagle of to-
day, says:
"All those journals in Mississippi,
which have given favorable account OF
the crops, and particularly of the cotton
crop in this State, have been mistaken, or
purposely mised by outside parties.
The crops in Mississippi were more un-
promising at this season last year than
they are now, particularly the cotton
crop, which has bad stand everywhere,
and is from three to six weeks behind, in
growth, what it ought to be. If the press
of Mississippi wish to stick to the strict
truth, and at the same time do justice to
the prosecuted and almost ruined South,
they will at once make the proper cor
rection and dmende in this matter"

WASHINGTON CITY, Dec. "a. 1863.
The following order has been received from
the President Of the United States
EXECUTIVE MANSION. }
WASHINGTON, ID. c., Dec. "a, 1862 (
The painful duty devolves upon the President
of announcing to the people of the United
States the death of one Of its most distinguished
citizens and faithful servants, the Hon. Edwin
nj. Stanton, which occurred in this city at an
early hour this morning.
He was distinguished in the councils OF the na-
ton during the entire period of its recent strup
gle for national existence; first as Attorney
General, then as Secretary of War. He was
unceasing In his lab0rs, earnest and fearless in
the assumption of responsibilities necessary to
his country's success; respected by all good men
and feared by wrong doers. In his death the
bar, the bench, and the nation sustain a great
loss, which will be mourned by all.
AS mark of respect to his memo ry it is or
dered that the Executive Mansion and the seye-
raj Departments at Washington be draped in
mourning, and that all business be suspended
Oh the day OF the funeral.
L. s. GRANT
The eminent ability of the late Secretary of
War, his legal requirements, his firm patriotism
and his sturdy devotion to duty in the most try
ing times OF the Republic when many others fall
tered have commanded the admiration of the
country, while his management of this Depart
mentd during the days when man of deter
mined energy and will was demanded, has
marked his term of Office as one unequalled in
a1lministration---
1t is ordered that the offices connected with
the Department of War be draped i'm mourning
for period of thirty days. and all business sus-
pended therein on the dag OF the funeral. and
that on the day after the receipt of this order at
each military post fifteen guns will be fired at
appropriate intervals commencing at meridian.
WM w. BRLKNAP, Secretary of War.
