Be Wise and Look to Your Own Interests.


We can't always depend upon man to
pursue a given course because his Interests
lead i'm that dircction-some, by giving
them sufficient rope, will hang themselves.
The South committed an act of great Jolly
in the secession movement. II was under
taken in order to establish and extend the
institution of slavery, but so resulted that
instead of every man having the right to
wallop his own niggers at pleasure that
same bigger is found occupying the high
est seats in the state and nation with
rights equal to that of every man. He
can't hope to learn such wisdom. Though
we should bray them in a morter we could
not pestle the fOolishness out of them.
We only remark upon this case as upon
other phenomena in nature
But with those who understand what
are real home interests and intend to act
accordingly we have a word to say. Many
Republicans give their support to Col.
McGhee for the Legislature because they
are satisfied that the Agricultural College
and other local intererts require that we
should have man to represent u who
has influence, and who will be likely
through such influence to do us some good.
Those who consult our true interests
will take the same enlightened view of the
matter when it comes to questions with
which Congress must deal.
II is well known that some of our rail-
roads in Tennessee are embarrassed by GER
tain claims of the United States, which are
to be materially effected by the action of
Congress. . Mr.. Maynard has taken n liberal
view Of the matter regarding not only the
,intent of the stockholders, but of the whole
community, as involved in the prosperity
of our railroads and has stood up for them
doing all that any man could do under
the circumstances. to bring about such set
Element of these claims a. viii relieve the
corporations from such embarrassment,
and enable them 20 put their roads in first
class condition.
This is no party question. The people
of East Tennessee are all more or less in
terested in good and cheap railroad trans
pOrtation. Whenever the roads begin to
pay any profit the managers can afford to
lessen the tariff Of freights, and give the
people the benefit.
Give us the man for Congress then who
can be of the create. service to our home
interests.
The present national administration is
Republican, and all tayUr- must come from
the majority. 40 man in Congress is pos
sessed Of more influence with that body
than Horace Maynard
While such important local interests
are to be protected, a relief for our rail-
roads, appropriations for the Tennessee
River Improvement, new POstOfiice, claims
for war damages, &c.,-and 70 think of re-
placing Mr.. Maynard with Col. BLIZZARD is
more than folly. Tt il suicids'. c.

The plan Of employing balloons in war
fare was practiced by the French in 1894.
After the expulsion Of the Austrians from
Liege, by General Jourdain, they retired
10 strong situation at some distance,
where they threw up entertainments, in
tending to wait for reinfCrcements. Be
fore, however these could arrive, they
were attacked by the French, on the 18th
of September Of that year, and forced to re-
tire, after a great slaughter on both sides.
The success of the French was attributed
In a great measure, to the discovery Of the
position and movements of the Austrian-
made by two engineers whom the French
sent up in an air balloon.

circulation next to the COttrieT-JOUTndl.
No doubt it is generally known to your
readers that there is a slight misunder
standing existing between Col. Kelly and
Gen. Burbridge of Kentucky. The affair
originated out Of several articles published
in the Commercial, copied from the May
vile Eagle. The affair has not yet been
settled. 1t is generally supposed a duel
may be the result. Col. Kelly is a high
toned gentleman, and during the war ac-
quired the name Of being "a brave officer.

For Diseases of the Throat and Lungs,
such as Coughs, Colds, Whooping
Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma,
md COnal1mntion.

OOuBnS brOnCnlblb, Asthma
and Consumption.
Probably never before in the whole history of
medicine, has any thing won so widely and so
deeply upon the confidence of mankind, as this
excellent remedy for pulmonary complaints.
Through long series of years, and among most
of the races of men II has risen higher and higher
in their estimation, it has become better known
Its uniform character and power to cure the va.
rious affections of the lungs and throat, have
made it known as reliable protector against
them. While adapted to milder forms Of disease
and to young children, 1t Is of the same umc the
most efectual remedy that can be given for incip.
lent consumption, and the d. gcrous affections
Of the throat and lungs. AS provision against
sudden attacks Of Group, it should be kept on
hand in every family, and indeed as u are some
times subject to colds and coughs, IL should be
provided with this antidotc for them.
Although settled Consumption il thought in
durable, still great numbers of ca es where the
disease seemed settled, have been completely
cured, and the patient restored to sound health
by the Cherry PICTORIAL so complete j. it,
mastery over the disorders of the Lungs and
Throat, that the most obstinate of them yield to it,
When nothing else could reach them, under the
cherry pectOrdI they subside and disappear.
Singers and Public Speakers find great
protection from it.
1sthma is always relieved and often wholly
cured by it.
Bronchitis i, generally cured by taking the
cherry PccfOFGf in small and frequent dose.
So generally are its virtues known, that vn
need not publish the certificates Of them lg.,.. ur
do more than assure the public that i,s o.
are fully maintained.

place there within living memory. The
most solid ediaces, those which seemed best
fitted to resist the action Of the flames, were
burnt like SO many houses of cards. 1t was
to check the progress of the conha-
grafton Pera was Oh sre in fifty places at
once, and was, so to speak, surrounded by a
circle of flames. A strong northwest wind
was blowing at the time, and 1t was this which
rendered all human effort unavailing. The
fire, which broke out at o'clock in the after
noon, did not, in fact, cease until it had burnt
itself out at midnight. Great exertions had
since been made by the Turkish Government
to relieve the distress occasioned by this terri
BILE disaster.
One of the most terrible kerosene calami-
ties we ever heard of is mentioned in the Gin
cinnati papers OF Saturday. The people in
one of the principal streets were suddenly ap-
palled by the spectacle of Mrs. Bickford IA
young and pretty woman) rushing about among
them. She was perfect mass Of fire from
head to foot, the long spires of flame raised
several feet above her head, and haring out
from her body in every direction. The crowd
attempted with their hats and hands as we'll as
they were able to extinguish the flames, which
were burning fercely. A blanket was at last
brought and thrown around her, smothering
the fire; but not until every shred Of her cloth
ing was burned to ashes, and the hoops of her
skirt heated to- a red heat, deeply imbedded in
her quivering flesh. Such an event is dreadful
enough to make one wish there were no kero-
