CALLED OUT AND KILLED.
Another Victim Of the HAWKINS
County Vendetta.

From the Knoxville Wing. of friday
Our readers have not forgotten the
terrible tragedies enacted in Hawkins
county, since the war closed, begin
ming, if we recollect rightly, on the
I4th of june, 1867, when Captain VIM.
Sizemore killed man by the name of
Webster, then in the autumn follow
ing a man by the name of Willis killed
Captain Sizcmore near the same spot
Webstcrwa killed. Then followed
the tragic death of Willis. These per-
sons had all been federal soldiers, and
the feud between the parties dated
back long prior to their engagement
as soldiers.
We have this morning to add the
name of another victim to the spirit
of vengeance that seems to characterize
the warfare in Hawkins county be-
tween these parties. On the night OF
the 18th instant Mr.. Thomas Size
more, brother of Captain William,
killed by Willis, was called to the door
of his residence in that county, and
was shot through the head and heart,
killed him instantly. No clue what
ever is publicly known as to the
assassin. Is this terrible warfare
never to be buried? ~

"a. Johnson, Tailor"

From the Daily Magnet, Decatur, III.
The Holston Southern journal con-
yeys the following important mfor-
nation concerning the future course
of ex-President Andrew johnson:
We are reliably informed by two
respectable gentlemen directly from
Greenville, Tennessee, that ex-Presi-
dent johnson has purchased a large
and commodious brick building i'll
that town, intending to engage again
at an early day in the tailoring bust
ness, under the old sign of "a. john
son. Tailor" He intends to employ
quite number of tailors, and will
conduct wholesale and retail bust
ness. Success to the ex-President.
May his days be many, and may he
ever be dilligent in business, and
whatsoever his hands may find to do
NAV Inc do it with all his might.
While we heartily join the Journal
i'm its well wishes for the the future
prosperity and success. of the expires
ident, we think he might have chosen
much better business point than the
insignificant village of Greenville.
However, he may be like one of the
ancient Romans, who, when asked
why he did not remove to more i'm
portant point than the one at which he
resided, replied, IF were to leave
this place it would be of less impor-
lance than it is now"
But we presume that "a. johnson,
Tailor" does not expect to be permit
ted to follow his humble occupation of
tailoring permanently. five do not
mistake the signs of the times, he will
be called ere long to occupy the seat
in the United States Senate now Occu-
pied by the cratic and belligerent
Parson Brownlow-a seat that he has
heretofore filled with so much honor
to himselfand such devoted patriotism
to his country. He stood true when
all others of his section proved, recre-
FAINT to their trust. All honor to him
for his noble stand, say we.
ssrhis was the nobest Roman of them all;
All the conspirators, save only he,
Did what they did in envy of great Cesar,
| He, only, in a general honest thought,
| A,d no,n,nop rood 10 all mada nna of Them "

The Supreme Bench.

AMcmphis paper suggests the name
of Gen. G. J. PILLOW, of Memphis
as a suitable person for position on
the Supreme Bench from West Ten
ncssec. The suggestion is good
enc. Gen. PILLOW has long been a
leading citizen Of our State, and prov
ed his right to be SO by his many SER
vices and great sacrifices in her be-
half In his early life Gen. PILLOW
educated himself i'm the law, and al
though temporarily removed from its
practice for a number Of years by Off
cial position and the war, since the
advent of peace he has returned to his
first love. and his mriyalled success
and extensive practice have estaf-
lished his reputation as a great law
yer in Memphis. With a Supreme
Court composed of such men as Pill
low and Snecd of West Tennessee,
Nicholson and Turner of Middle Ten
ncssec, Nelson and Dcaderrick of East
Tennessee, the purity of the Judicial
ermine will have returned. and the
liberties of the people under the law
secured.

Ho1o to Cook an Omelet.-Beat the

of butter into a fat frying pan; hold
it over the fire till warm, then pour
in the egg. As the mass begins to
cook run thin knife blade around
the edge and under it. to prevent
burning. As soon as the surface IS
about dry, fold e-half of the onelet
over the other, slice it off the plate,
and it is ready to serve. 1t will cook

would use to boil it, and set the dish

"A Sure Cure for Corns Mr..
Rose, a merchant of San Diego, au-
nounces that these creators of so
much misery 10 the world, can easily
and surely be cured by applying a
good coat of gum arabic mucilsge
every evening on going to bed. He
had them for forty years, and tried
nearly all the corn doctors and corn
remedies in existence. without relief,
until he tried the above, which readi-
ly cured him in a few weeks.
A Nice ErldktGst Dish.-Boil and
slice potatoes thin as possible, put
them into frying pan with warm but

Lemonade,-Those who live where
fresh lemons cannot be obtained
whenever wanted. will find a very nice
substitute for lemonade can be made
by dissolving a small portion Of citric
acid in water, favored with good es-
sence of lemon, and sweetened to
taste. A quarter of pound will
make gallons of lemonade, and is
much preferable to tartaric acid, be-

this, suffered from piles and extreme fe-
