SO Watches I

Not among the least important of the many
wonders Of the metropolis, is the Great $40
Watch Sale Of MIoHEIIN & Co., New York, I'D
vertised in another column.
As very many of our readers may require q
good watch, We advise them to give this concern
a trial, before buying elsewhere. Circulars
fully describing the Sale, and every particular,
can be obtained by mail upon application.
For so cents each, they will send engravings
giving correct likenesses of their Watches, with
full descriptions to the most minute particular.
These engravings, when bought by the quantity,
are sold at a less price, and liberal commissions
given those who act as agents. Every one by
this novel arrangement ascertains to q certainty
the exact style of Watch as well as by personal
examination, that they can rec~eive'upon q fur
ther payment of $40. And if unsatisfactory, it
is optional whether the buyer make further in
vestment.
Certainly no harm can be done by trying
them, and until something is known to the det-
riment Of the concern, none should hastily con-
denim it; make the experiment, we say the
outlay is but triaing, while the gain may be very
handsome.
Hundreds Of packages of Watches are daily
forwarded by this establishment tothe most re-
mote parts ofthe country, by express, to be paid
for when received by the c~Onsignee. Try them
once! Surely nothing can BIZ lOstl jan6 l3t.

MADIsoNvILLE, Tenn, Jan. 10, 1870.
Mr.. Enron: The Circuit Court met to-
day, his Honor Judge Hall presiding.
Court met early-the Jury was called
Grand Jury drawn which was composed
of the best men of our county. They
were, during the late war, and since class
ed, politically as follows: Six Rebels, six
Union and one Radical. The charge of
his Honor to the Grand Jury was full and
complete, and worthy of any Court. Law
breakers will have to look out, if the jury
does their duty, and | feel certain they
will. The Travis Jury were then called
into their box, which was also composed
Of good men, and made one think of old
times. The County Justices are certainly
entitled to much credit for selecting such
Jurors. After all the Juries we're sworn
the Court Proceeded to the regular bust
ness, and the first case taken up was Jo-
seph Brakebill against Dean and others,
damages for burning a barn and contents.
A large number of witnesses were exam
ined on behalf of the Plaintiff, and the
Court adjourned until Tuesday morning.
| have attended Court here for half a
century and never say a better behaved
crowd in attendance for such bad and cold
weather. Now and her l could see one or
two who had tasted q little too much Of
the "mountain dew" but all was quiet.
Among the lawyers in attendance on
the Court are many familiar faces, such
as Judge Nixon, VanDyke, Coils Cook
and Bradford, Caldwell, Bryant, Burge,
McCroskey, Chambers, Judge Brown, W.
j. Hicks, Milton Hicks, Nelson, McGinly,
and others. / had like to forgotten Col.
T~hornburgh, our worthy Attorney Gen.
eral, who is a terror to evil doors and law
breakers. He is at his post and will pun
ish the guilty.
County candidates are mixing around
shaking hands with their constituents. 1t
is understood this evening that Jason Nc
Mullen, John G. Vaughn and Anderson
Hawkins are in the field for Sheriff; so
Mr.. Pennington cannot run the race by
himself. More anon.

Letter from jacksonville.
John c. Vaughn In the Field.

JACKSONVILLE, TENN, Jan. 10, 1870.
G. B. WOODWARD,
Sweetwater, Tenn.
DEAR SIR: Permit me, through the
columns Of your paper, to myself
as a candidate for Sheriff Of Monroe coun-
ty at the next March election.
Having been Sheriff before and when
the war commenced, and leaving much
unsettled business, and my principal se-
,curity having died during my last term,
leaving the business much tangled and
confused, / think it due to myself and Sc
curitie's to wind it up in person. There
fore I ask the voters Of Monroe to give
me their support, one more time, for Sher-
if, and I promise them to try and dis
charge the duties Of the Office and make
a better officer than before.
/ am well known and do not expect to
canvass the county, as in days of yore, but
| will say this +: I~return to my native
county without any pryad,ess. I have
no friends to reward-no enemies to
pWHtSHs Al GuC uuo0ttLcu OUuuittuu VI
parties / hardly know what party I be-
long to. ] have been strongly solicited
to run the race by Rebels, Conservatives
and strong Radicals and feel certain that
I will be supported by members of all
parties; and if elected I shall know no
man as a public officer, but try to dis
charge my duty and treat all men alike.
I feel certain that during my former term
fofice that I never pressed the poor or
needy. When I failed to collect the rev
enue of the county / always paid it up.
I have been ~pardoned by the President
Of the United Statesand feel that I am
entitled to fill the office, if the voters say
SO.
So I leave my claims in the hands Of
the people, and no one will submit more
cheerfully to their will than I.
Very Respectfully,
JoHN G. VAuoHN.
