Having severed my connection
with the CITIES, l cahnot retire
from it's editorial chair without a
rang Of regret. l have been for SO
long associated with its editorial
department and have formed 50
many agreeable associations in its
service, that viii be pardoned for
leaving it with sadness. Whatever
may have been the result of my cd
itorial career my conscience &C
quits me Of ever having given in
tsntional ofFense to any Individual,
or carrying into my public voca-
tion any personal malice or bitter
ness. Public opinion is the judge
of my success or failure, and will
be pardoncd any appearance of ego
tism il the construction I.put upon
the kindness and courtesy of many
of the CITrzES's readers leads me to
believe that my labors have not been
wholly in vain. The CITIZEN has
my hcarticst and most sincere wish
cs for its future success. ! leave
it in good hands and under expert
cnccd management, which ] am
satisfied will place it on a level

Onr Rntnre.

With this issue Of the CITIZEN its
old proprietor assumes its publica-
tion. For nearly fifteen years, with
two intcrmissions, one of which
was occasioncd by the war, he has
faithfully underworld to give the
people OF Giles county an accepta-
bic newspaper, and he will be par
dOned for any scmblancc of vanity
If he recognizes in their liberal sup
port and encouragement a substan-
tial recognition of their approval.
So long n connection with this pa
per, attended as it has been with Il
host Of pleasant associations and an
intimate acquaintance with SO many
readers in Giles county, very natu-
rally imprcsscs the proprietor with
the belief that no extended salut Il
tory from him, embracing promises
for the future is necessary on the
present occasion. Beginning the
new year with new type, new mate
rial, enlarged and improved facili-
ties, q full editorial corps and in
creased newspaper advantages, the
proprietor int ,nIs TO make the Cir
ZEN a handsome monument Of bur
peoples libcrality. The CITIES
will be in the future what we have
endeavorcd TO make it in the past
"a county paper, attentive to local
interests, a record OF current events,
an cpitomc Of local and general
news and a welcome visitor To the
farm, counting room and firc-sidc.
In politics the CITIZEN will preserve
an independence of mere party or
partisan devices when they conflict
with what it believes TO be the best
interests of our people. Still
it recognizes the Democratic
party at present as the great Nation
81 Conservative party of the Union,
making war Gu radicalism and all
enemies Of the Constitution Of our
fathers. Believing this, the CirI-
ZEN win heartily and zealously sup
port that party in all its measures
looking to the discnthralment of
our people from the tyranny of rad
icalism and tending to the public
good. Believing also that the sur
est way for our people to regain the
mower and wealth lost in ,lcyasta-
ting war is 10 develop their agricul-
tural and mercantile resources, in
crease their wealth and promote
public enterprise and public i'm
provcment, We shall regard an ann
pie discussion of these matters par
amount to long-winded political 1
calculated TO divert I
the public mind from its true road I
to interest. With these promises
for the future we offer the CITIZEN
TO our people at a reduced price and F!
hope that our friends throughout

business.
ReSolsed. That the Grand Jury of

We saw a man on the street the
other day who had the audacity to
say that Giles county needed turn
pixies worse than any other "locali-
ty'' he ever heard tell of. a large
crowd assembled and after unani-
mously electing him chief dam
phool of the county sent him out on
the Cornersville road on a tour of
inspection. He has since been
fished out of a gully and his funeral
was largely attended. The Coro-
ner's jury, after minute and care
-fal investigation of the circumstan-
ces of his untimely demise, returned
the following verdict: Deceased
came to his death while laboring
under the impression that he was
perambulating a public road or
highway leading from the town of
Pulaski, when it is well known to all
persons out of the lunatic asylum
that no such thing as public road,
highway or turnpike has existed in
the county of Giles for several years
past. Laboring under this delu-
sion deceased fell into a subterrane-
an cavity commonly called a gully,
{ a description of which can be Civ
en- by al who travel in vehicles or
on horseback in said county of
Giles, and expiated his lamentable
ignorance by giving up the ghost
in a pleasant and gully-bIe manner"
The jury terminated their verdict
by advising all citizens of Giles
county who have business requiring
their departure from home to carry
scaling ladders and fat boats along,
as well a compass to ascertain their
bearings.

Fires.

An extraordinary list Of fires Is
recorded by the papers throughout
the country. In Newburg, Pough-
keepsic and Rochester, New York,
fires have recently occurred which
DESTROYED about 100000 worth of
property. In Massachusetts, Ma
rvland, New Jersey and Canada the
fire demon has consumed buildings
worth nearly 100000, and sacrific-
ed quito number Of human lives.
The loss of life and property at
Richmonk, Va, rs we'll SIS mt other
places IN the South and North, bear
fearful testimony to the flIryof the
fire fiend.

The year 1870, so pregnant with
important events, has been ,onsign-
ed to the mouldy mausoleum Of
Time, aAd its ailolescent successor
now holds up the mirror which
reflects tlIe 18sare. while We re-
feet upon the cares and trials Of
the past year, and recall many of
the misfortnnes that may have been
cntailed upon as as nation, and rs
individuals, re should soften the
pain of such retrespection by Civ
ing the dead year credit for all of
its blessings. As a nation we have
much to be thankful for, as we'll as
a great deal to regret, in the career
of the departed year, but the histo-
~ Of nations, like that of individu-
ais, alternates between the bright
and dark sides. While the politi
cal features of the government for
the past year have been bitterly
sectional and partisan, and while a
party hostile to the Southern peo-
pie has given them additional proofs
Of its dcspotic character, stiH the
voice of the people has been heard
at the ballot box in nearly all the
leading States and it speaks in en-
phatic tones in condemnation Of
radicalism and leads us to believe
that the new year viii witness the
entire overthrow Of our prosecutors.
Then, again, while two of the great
est powers in Europe have been con
vulscd by war and elements of still
greater strife are being developed
in others, We have been at peace,
and the song of the plowman and
the hum Of industry have made lnu
sic throughout our entire land
Bountifuls crops and Increased pros
perity in all branches of trade and
commerce have rewarded the lahors
of the people, and testified to the
goodness of Almighty God. Some
Of US as individuals have had cares,
vexations and Affections, but we
believe that none have been entire
" destitute of joys and blessings;
therefore let us with brave hearts,
industrious hands and hopeful souls
welcome the New Year and await
With patience and resignation the
PRONUNCIATION of His DEGREES.
The CITIZEN sends its new year
greetings to its readers, acustom it
has observed for about fifteen years,
and one which the liberal patronage
of a generous people leads it to be-
lieve it will continue to observe for
many years to come. Entering up
on our duties for the new year with
greater facilities than ever before
for publishing a readable and en-
tertaining paper, the old proprietor
promises that he will do his whole
duty to his patrons during the new
year, 1871.

General Juan Prim, the Prime
Minister and King maker of Spain,
is dead. General Prim's career was
a stormy and eventful one. He had
been mixed up with several reyolu-
tions, in all of which (save the last
one which deposed Quecn Isabella
and made him a controlling power
in Spanish affairs he gained moth
ing but notoriety. lie figured ex-
tensiyely in maneuvering for King
of Spain and no doubt controlled
the Cortes in its election of Prince
Armodeus. A few days since he
was attacked by assassins in Mad
rid and shot in several places and
we suppose his wounds were the
cause of his death. Being called
upon to enact the role of Warwick
he failed to achieve but one tri-
umph in that character before death
overlook him. How the death of
General Prim will affect the securi-
ty of the new King is yet to be seen.

CAMrRELLsvILLE. Jan. 3. Is.


Christmas is over and everything
in and around our little villa is calm
and serene, but had you been here
last Thursday night you would have
imagined that you were in Paris and
the Dutchmen had concluded to
lombard a little. Well, now for
something else. We had a wedding
up here last week which I would
term "a wedding under difficulties"
Here it is as well as can tell it,
with no ictions except the names:
1t seems that mothers big boy, Ike,
had been smitten by the charms of
Jemima, and Ike's nanny deter
mined in her own mind that key
and Jemima should not hitch for
life, and they say on the ridge that
she's thunder when she gets arous-
ed. She threatened to burn the
roof under which the sacred knot
was to be tied. Ike, believing that
mother would do what she said,
was in dilemma, whea Jemima sug-
gested that they be married out in
the cool, which suggestion was
agreed to, so they mounted their
ponies and met the Esq'r at the
forks ofthe road and then and there,
under the wide spreading limbs of
an old ash tree, Ike and Jemima sat
upon their ponies, (while the Esq'r
sat upon his nule), and promised
to love, cherish and protect each
other 'until death us do part" Of
course the old lady could not burn
the house, but the last we heard
from the ridge she was trying to Dor
row an axe to dcaden the old ash
tree.
A man by the name of Swan shot
and killed Mr.. Grigg near Scream
ersville, Maury Co., last Saturday.
Shot him, am told, without any
cause. 1 think Swan has been rid
ing around to the neighbors' houses
under the guise Of a Kuklux. and
suppose that Grigg recognized him
and remarked that he knew him,
hence the shooting. Swan is Rad
zeal and is still at large,
I understand also that Mr.. ALI
Harrison, Ex-Sheriff of Lawrence
county, was shot and killed by a
Mr. Hunt one day last week. 1 do
not know the particulars.
Mrs. Elizabeth Saunders, wife of
old uncle Billy Saunders, died on
the 29th of December. She was in
her 85th year and has a twin sister
now living in Maury, which I sup
pose were the two oldest twins in
the State.
Badly burned, Mollie, daughter
of Mr.. Frank Cothran, aged IA
years, on the oath of December her
clothes caught on fire while prepar-
ing dinner, completely destroying
the skin on the inner and posterior
surface Of the right thigh, and as
high as midway the back. Receive
