The Knoxville Whlg.

The office Of this stAunch Republican Jour
nal has been sold to company of seven gem
tlemen, under the name and style of T. Haws
L Co. The paper will pass into the hands OF
the new organization the First Of February
next, at which time the publication Of a daily
win be commenced. An able and Influential
Republican daily in the commercial centre OF
East Tennessee has long been needed, and we
rejoice that this want il to be so Abundsntly
supplied under the new regime, DR.. Thomas
H. Pearne has beeA chosen rs the political,
religious and general editor, and WIN. Rule
employed as the local editor. The Wig can
boast an editorial ability surpassed by that
Of no other journal in the State.
Gov. Brownlow the illustriouS veteran OF
journalism in the South, has published his
editorial farewell. In taking leave of his
numerous readers no says "ln reviewing my
long and eventual career as an editor, | have
this TO say, that had l my life to live over,
would pursue the same course | have pursued
ONLY MORE so. have always taught both
parents and children to bold fast TO the forms
of sound doctrine and in defending them |
have invarisbly .ultered the words Of truth
and soberness'.
This consolation will make bright, cheerful
and happy the closing years ofths useful life
Of this noble patriot. The wealth o: a thou
sand mines could not purchase this quietude
and APPRECIATION Of conscience, that follows a
life Of upright and honest conduct, and the
highest worldly distinction Is not an atom in
the scales weighing against this conscious
ness Of having ever bsttled for the Right to
the full measure Of human power. With sad
ness we return the farewell to this fearless
and unswerwing champion Of Justice, Truth
Human Equality, Union and Nationality.

Sad AMIR at MOssI Creek.

We regret TO learn that on Sunday
last a Christmas rcvel was brought TO
a tragic conclusion AZ Messy Creek.
Mr.. Robert Bloyins, Of Hawkins coun.
ty--being on q visit 10 his relatives at
Messy Creek-Mr, VIM. Nolan, an
employee of Mr.. Jno. r, Branner, and
others of their acquaintance, on Sat-
urdSy had been indulging in the fes.
tivities OF the ISL together. Dur
ing the day, sometime, Nolan became
highly incensed at young BIevins, for
= supposed intentional hurt he had
inflicted upon him ard made repeat
cd threats that he would be avenged.
He was armed with a pistol and
sought on Saturday evening to bring
about q difficulty, but was avoided
by Blevins. On Sunday, however,
as Blevins was preparing to take the
train to return home, he was inter.
cepted by Nolan, who had his pistol
in his hand. Firing at once commenc,
ed, but by whom begun, our inform
ant could not tell. Two of Blevins'
shots took effect in Nolan's breast
and one in his stomach. The wound.
ed man attempted to gain the hotel
near by, but fell. He was carried in
to the house aud the balls were ex-
tracted. His wounds, we learn, were
pronounced mortal. BlOvins escaped
unhurt. Tho parties, we learn. had
previously been good friends -Knor'

CONGRESSIONAL.

ELIaIBMITY OF THE PREsIDENT--A TWELVE MIL
LION DOLLAR SCHEME.
WASHINGTON, January 15.-IN THE SENATE
the judiciary Committee reported adversely to
the joint resolution, making the President and
Vice-President ineligible for second term.
After other unimportant business, the dis
cussion Of the Sue Murphy case was resumed
and after a long debate the matter, with va
rious propositions and amendments, was re-
committed without division. The Senate
then adjourned to Monday.
In TIE HOUSE, the Election Committee re-
ported that Christy was elected from the Sixth
Congressional District of Georgia, but was
disqualified, having voluntarily aided the en-
emy:
number of private bills were reported
The bill for the Niagara Falls Canal, appro-
priating $12, ,0O0, 600 for the enterprise was re-
sumed. Among the features Of the discussion
was the following: General Crupper, Of Lott
isiana, in opposition, said that grain was now
being shipped from st. Louis to New York via
New Orleans at seventeen cents less per bush
ell than via Chicago, and to Liverpool at twen-
ty cents per bushel less than via New York,
and in one-third less time. The bill was re-
serred to a committee, which is tantamount to
it's defeat for this season.
Adjourned to Monday.

COMPROMISE WITH vIRGINIA-THE CoNSTITU-
TIoN TO BE ADOPTED IN MODIFIED FORM
GENERAL aILLEM ON THE MISSISSIPPI CON-
sTITUTIoN.
WASHINGTON January 15.-After many con-
ferences between the Virginia Committee and
it's individual members, and the Judiciary
Committee Of the Senate and members Of the
Senate and House, it seems pretty we'll under
stood that the following definite arrangement
has been substantially agreed to !: Following
the precedents in the Missouri Compromise
and the proceedings upon the admission of
Oregon, Kansas and Nebraska, a bill will
be prepared authorizing the admission Of Vr-
ginia on the adoption of the proposed consti-
tuition with certain obnoxious clauses in regard
to disfranchisement, the test oath, and proba-
bly, other Objectionable features stricken out.
When this bin is passed. it is believed that II
will be followed by an amnesty bil either uni
versal or with very few exceptions, to take ef-
feet upon the ratification Of the constitution.
1t is understood that this adjustment meets
the approval of General Grant, General scho-
field. and large number Of the most promi-
nent members of both Houses.
General Gillem has concluded his testimony
before the Reconstruction Committee. He at
tributes the defeat of the constitution in Mis-
sissippi to it's proscriptive features. The white
people were nearly all opposed to it, and many
of the colored people, whose generosity was ap-
pealed to, voted against it. General Gillem
thinks that if the constitution were to be re-
submitted to the people with the understand
ing that prescription was to be regulated by
the reconstruction laws, the constitution
would be adopted by large majority.
Assistant Surgeon M. L. Ruther, died at the
Naval Hospital at Resaca, Georgia.

Considering the season Of the year, the dry
goods business is unusually large, though
rather of q speculative nature Agents And
no difficulty in closing ont their entire stock at
the ruling figures, while jobbers are receiving
considerable orders from the. interior. Prices
Of sheetiags and prints have been and even
now are very low, II the raw material is to be
maintained at present rates, and there appears
TO be no prospect OF any considerable decline in
cotton until there is materially diminished con-
sumption in Manchester, and an improvement
in the stock at Liverpool. Besides, the large
short interest at prices much below present
rates, must have tendency 10 keep the market
Arm. Sales for delivery this month have
been made, both here and at Liver
pool which must be covered, and if.
they are OF the extent claimed, may continue
TO impart considerable excitement to the mar
ket, especially while the South is sending for
ward orders to purchase, having confadence in
much higher rates, based on reduced estimates

cry has been quite limited this week until to.
day, the total reaching only about 1900 bales
(all low middIing), there being very few sellers
even at the high rates obtained. But to-day
there have been further sales amounting to
1906 beleH. We note sales OF 4EO bales for
Febrnary at 28ac,, and $50 bales for March at
