DEATH FROM EXPOsURE.-We learn
from Winthrop, the sad particulars of the
death of the daughter Of JAS McElrath,
of that place by exposure. The young
girl was about 13 years of age, and of
weak intellect and at intervals subject to
fits. Last Sunday afternoon in company
with some young companions she went
out to walk, and by some means got sep
arated from the rest. Failing to make
her appearance at night, the alarm was
given and search instituted. The search
was continued throughout the night with
out success About noon the next day
her body was found about one mile from
town in some willows which line the
bank of Buffalo creek.

That when you find Cuisines men who
say they can't afford to patronize the

they can no longer swindle the public,

Governor Senter has arrived here from

ports that crops in East Tennessee this
season are unprecedented. Wheat has
grown luxuriantly, and en- immense yield
will be realized. The growing corn crop
is magnificent.
Col. A. S. Colyer, in his circular max
ing appointments for addressing the peo-
pie of the State at different points, winds
up as follows: 1.-THE executive and leg
islative departments of the State govern
ment viii be compelled to act on grave
questions within the next two years, and
it occurs to me that if the Governor is to
be chosen by convention the candi-
dates had better make known their views
before the convention than after. Com
binations in politics, as well as trading,
which is going on, make it necessary
that the people shall take care of them
selves. Ihave no reference to combina-
tons for or about the Office of Governor,
for know of none but the people are
kept in the background by traders and
men who hold the balance of power. |
shall speak firmly of these things, and
would be glad to have gentlemen who
feel interest enough in the State to help
save it to come to hear me"
