THE following Is Senator BrownloTs letter,
as published In the Knoxville Wnig, upon the
occasion of his selling his interest in the es-
tablishment: Having founded tho Whig in
the Spring of 1889, have been its chief editor
and publisher for term extending through
thirty years-frst at ElizabethtoD, next at
Jonesboro,' and for the last twenty years as
Knoxville. Declining health and other engage
ments render it impracticable for me ionge. W
look after the business interests OF tne ONCE

newspaper establishment in this state or eise-
where The publication of the Whig will be
continued under a new organization; but by
whom it will be published and edited am un-
able to say. I have the assurance, however,
that it will be continued as a Republican Jour-
nal, advocating the principles and policy of the
Republican Party, and rendering a cordial
support to General Grant and his Admins.
tratlon. may add that my chief, if not my
only hope for the stability of the Government
the maintenance of Republican institution-in
which alone true liberty is found-and the real
welfare and development of the country, lies in
the perpetuity of the Republican Party. have

than any other one cause, if not than all 9th.
ers combined. And further, it is pertinent to
say, that so many in Tennessee who were at
one time the most outspoken Union men, have
proved untrue and have turned back to the
flesh pots of Egypt" betraying the too gen.
erous friends who had warmed them into life,
that can only ask that the Republicans of the
nation will trust Tennessee politicians as far
as they prove themselves trustworthy. and nc
further. In this remark it is not intended to
say that all Tennessee politicians are untrue
or Enthusiastically. The remark is intended
only for those to whom it properly applies
and the intelligent reading public will not fai
to make the right application of 1t.

The Fever md A9ue Season,

When the leaves begin to change, remittent and
and intermittent levers make their appearance.
From the surface of the earth, bathed nightly in
heavy dews, from marshes and swampS surcharged
with moisture, from the dying foliage of the woods
from fostering pools and sluggish streams the sun
of September evolves clouds OF miasmatic vapor
perilous to health and life. The body, deprived by
the burning temperature of July and August Of
much OF its vigor and elasticity, is not in proper
plight to resist malaria; and hence all diseases
that are produced by depraved condition OF the
atmosphere are particularly prevalent in the Fall.
There is no reason why the health OF thousands of
people should be thus sacrificed. A preparatory

How TO PURCHASE CLOTHES WRINGER.-
In purchasing a Clothes Wringer, we prefer
one with cog-wheels, as they greatly relieve
the rubber rolls from the strain that would
otherwise occur, and add much to the dura.
bility of the machine. 1itssE
The next point is to see that the cog-wheeli
are SO arranged as not to fly apart when large
article is passing between the rollers. 1t mat
ters not whether the cog-wheels are on one end
or both ends of the shaft; if the large article
disconnects them they are entirely useless
This is very important, for, the larger the arti-
cle the greater the strain; therefore, if the cog
wheels separate SO as to disconnect, they are Of
no service when most needed. We have taken
some pains to examine the various wringers
and much prefer the "Universal" as lately
improved, because it has long and strong gears
(Rowell's Patent Double Gear), and is the on.
ly wringer with patent stop for preventing
the cog wheels from separating so far as tc
lose their power.-[New England Farmer.

pain in my right side, by spells could hard

ANOTHER SPANISH HoRRoR.-The Suns
Havana correspondent says that when the
Spaniards found on the morning of the battle
of La Tunas that they must abandon the bat
tie, they barred the ponderous gates from the
outside and fired the buildings. There we're
one hundred and thirty prisoners who perish
ed in the flames, not one escaping to tell the
hideous tale. Some of them were soldiers, but
the greater number were wealthy citizens. No
record or list of names, perfectly correct, can
ever be found.
Fire had ragged full two hours when the Gu
ban columns pushed the Spaniards back from
the neighborhood of the fire. Then all hope
of saving one single inmate of that charnel
house'wa abandoned. The Diario of the 7th
inst contains the first intimaton of the hor-
rible crime. This journal claims that the
prisoners were slain in battle and the bodies
burned to prevent contagion and epidemic. As
the United States mail closed on the day be-
fore the steamer sailed, the rails were par
tally searched by the authorities, but the Off
GERS did not have time to open all the letters
and number of bags were not examined.
