THE SPIRIT OF IMPROVEMENT.

The spirit Of improvement, which is
,s.s,-1iEostiIIss itself throughout East Ten
nessee, We note with much qualification.
While we are many years behind other To-
caGties in this respect, we have high hopes
that it will not always he thus. Weknow
we have advanced from our former posi-
ton, and the fact that the people are
thinking, warrants us in saying that no
backward steps are to be taken. Wherey-
er We go, We hear men talking about this
or that enterprise looking toward the de-
volOpment of their county or neighbor-
hood. Old things, which have been used
for half a century, the impractieability and
worthlesness of which have been thor
oughly demonstrated, are being laid aside
for modern inventions and modern i'm
provements. Our farmers are taking the
lead in this respect We will venture the
assertion that more improved agricultural
implements have been sold in East Ten
dessee in the last two years, than have ever
been disposed of in any ten preceding
years. They have come tothe conclusion
that the best is the1cheapest, and are act
ing accordingly. Farms are in better con-
dition now than any time previous. They
are il a higher state of cultivation, and
are producing more. Our farmers are get
ting TO be a Side-awake set of men, and in
the next ten years there viii be radical
changes in their mode of cultiyating the
different crops.
But the farmers are not the only men
who show such a spirit. The spirit of inn
provement shows itself among mechanics
OF every class. They are providing them
selves with the labor-saving Inventions of
the times. They do work with much more
rapidity than formerly. They economist
time and money. They are forming assoc
Citations with view of cooperation among
themselves, and with view to mutual
improvement.
While we are not what we should be, we
nevertheless have cause for self-eongratu-
lation. AS we said before, the people are
thinking and when men think, they ac-
complish wonders There is clearly a,
brighter day dawning. A more prosper
Gus future awaits us. Only let the people
keep up the spirit already manifested, and
our country-East Tennessee at no
distant day, stand alongside with the most
advanced and progressive States in the
Union LIS -tIlWgE#

THE::.isilly clap-trap stuff with which
Democratic editors see fit to fill their col
umns with reference to President Grants
absence from Washington and, as a cOnse-
quence, his inattention to business, is sim
ply contemplate. The reports from the
Treasury Department show that it is well
managed-that the public debt is being
steadily reduced, while the general pros
perity of the country gives the lie to such
a charge. There is no reason why the
President of the United States should not
occasionally take little recreation as well
as other men, provided he, in so doing,
sacrifices no public interest. President
Grant cannot be charged with this.

The troubles of last year, in the city of
New. York, between the Orangemen and
the Irish Catholics of that city, are yet
fresh in the minds of the people. To-mor-
row, the 18th Of July, is the day for the
regular annual celebration of the Orange
men, aud the probabilities are that there
will be trouble again. The Hibernian So
cisties have been holding meetings look
ing to the attack of the Orangemen,
should they decide to march through the
the Streets The city and State authorities
are said to be .unprepared for quelling any
outbreak or breach of the public peace,
hence the Hibernians look upon this as
giving direct encouragement to their in
famous Intentions. We will see if in this
land of boosted religious liberty, these
Protestant Irishmen are not suffered to
celebrate q day, to which they attach so
much importance.
By our dispatches this morning it will
be seen that the excitement is very high
in New York, and we are prepared to hear
trouble of a serious nature.

Water.P Proof Starch.

According to the Scientific Press
a patent has recently been taken Out
in France for a waterproof starch in.
tended for a finish for vegetable It's,
sues-yarns, cloths etc. The starch
being in3olnble will, it is said, remain
in the cloth for several washings,
The process is as follows:
"The articles in question are prom
erly starched and then placed at a
temperature of abont sixty degrees
Fahrenheit through a bath Of chloride
of zinc, by means of which such a
change is produced in the fibre and
the starch that the latter resists the
action of the water in the most thor
ough manner. A bath of three parts
of sulphuric acid and one of water,
may, it is said, be used instead OF that
of chloride of zinc. The liquid is to
be placed in a trough, in which a re-
vOlving barrel is immersed, almost to
its axis, and obove which Is a roller
which is moved in an opposite direc-
ton by the turning of the lower ono.
Between the two, the material to be
impreguated is passed, being moist
ened from below by the bath, and in
passing between the two, receiving
the necessary pressure. If the ma.
terial be heavy, The barrel lies entire.
ly in the bath, and a pair of rollers
fixed above it is used TO press out the
superfluOus liquid. The articles are
carried directly from the trough into
running water, from which they are
TO be removed, pressed out ana
dried"

The Western Cattle. Blindness.

A singular disease of the eyeg, re-
sultlng in blindness, is prevailing
among cattle in Western Missouri.
In the early stage of the disease the
eyes commence swelling, at the same
time running water. The swelling
lasts from five to fourteen days, and
when the discharge of water ceases, a
firm white film covers the eyes, COM
pletely destroying sight. The disease
IL said not to impair thegeneral health
Of the animal. The Kansas City
Times, Jackson County, Missouri
states that this ''epidemic' is spread
ing rapidly through that country, and
along the line Of the Memphis and
Kansas City Railroad. In Independ-
ence from thirty to forty cattle, some
Of them very fine animals, are COM
pletely blind. and in Kansas City
there are two hundred blind COWS,

Felt 1t Pull, of COursc.

There was & Sunday-school cclebra-

two ago, and the minister made a
speech to the children, in which he
cnGcayored to teach the nature OF
faith. So he told them the following
story by way Of illustration:
In the deepening twilight ola sum-
mer's evening a pastor called at the
residence of one Of his parishioners,
and found seated in the doorway a
little boy, with hands extended up.

What are you doing here, my lit

"Flying my kite, sir" was the
prompt reply.
"Flying your Fitc?" exclaimed the
pastor. Il can sec no kitc-you can
see none"

there, for | feel it pull"
The children were all deeply inter.
estcd, and the clergyman continued :
NOW, IN a few days after this, the
mother of the little boy was about to
die, and she said to him:
"'My son, when l am an angel, If |
can, | will come and be with You,
and guide you and shield you from
all harm, and watch to see you grow

"And the little boy paid he would"
"Now, m! dear child en-" said the
minister, "when that blessed angel

over that child, and placed her hand

"Why he felt her pun, of counsel"
