TI,e Rape case.

The caser Of d. II. lMhck, charged with at
tempting TO commit a rape on the person OF
Cornelia Mitchell, of the 10th DISTRICT in this
county, was heard at "a clock y yesterday after
postponed from 9 oclock in, order to allow
some witnesscstlme 70 arrive on the | % clock
train. 90
Jas. r. Cooke Esq, was employed for the
defense Nd ~ I.
In the proc. the followings facts were devel-
oped On Monday the 9TH day of August, Miss
Mitchell who is single lady, about Is years
sister, about two or three hundred yards from
her fathers house in order TO fill some tubs with
water. The spring is in a very retired spot in
the woods, and while the elder sister was filing
the vessels. the little girl went TO the house,
After her work was done the young lady also
started home, when the defendant sprang out
from behind a clump of plum bushes and grasp
ing her from behind threw her down on some
stones brusing and stunning her and
attempted to effect his fendish purpose, but was
frightened away before accomplishing 1t by tho
screams of the girl, who began TO cry for help
as soon as she recovered from the shock of the
fall. The defendant then threatened to kill her
if she revealed his crime, and also TO kill her
father. Fearing the execution Of the threat,
Miss Mitchell spoke of it TO no one for some
days, during which time she could neither eat
nor sleep for thought of the shame and indgnity
which had been perpetrated upon her. She was
finally prevailed upon to make known the cause
of her distress to her mother, and afterwards to
her father Mr.. James Mitchell, who caused the
prisoner to be arrested. Mr.. Mitchell has a
lumber yard in this place, and supplies it from
a saw mill at his home, where the accused had
been employed by him as engineer and fireman,
and who had been enjoying the confidence OF
Mr.. Mitchell and his family. Mr.. Muck is q
married man.
After the hearing of the evidence and the ar
gument by the attorneys, the prisoner was ad-
judged guilty and gave bail in n bond of 81 ,OOC
| for his appearance at the next sitting of the
Criminal Court

A Bloody Fight.

Yesterday about sunset, some eountrymen
had congregated at the liquor shop connected
with Thornton's stable and rs the flowing
bowl" flowed freely, it was not hard to raise a
row. James Parker, from Kinds Valley, had
brought in load of wood, and by the aid of
the proceeds, had been imbibing freely, and
was consequently noisy. There was n game of
cards going on, and man by the name of
Swanner told him to dry up Parker replied
that he paid for his own whisky and had o right
to talk. One word brought on another, and Mt
it they went. Swanner was big, heavy man
and had everything his own way. Backing
Parker across the street against the fence and
into the gutter, he pounded his face into jelly,
and the blood flowed freely, staining the curb
ing and covering his clothes.
Some persons attempted to part them, but n big
double listed fellow who stood by prevented it.
After Swanher had done as much pounding as
he liked he hurried off to Smith stable mount
ed his horse and fled before the city police had
time to make am arrest Parker gave bail to
appear before the proper authorities, and was
allowed to go home
The man who would see the fight OUT 1--WE
have not his name, was arrested and will have
q hearing before the Recorder to-day, at two

The Chronicle for Advertisers.

A fruit tree dealer, who advertised in the
WEEKLY CHRONICLE, has been canvassng the
country very extensively and stated to us yes
terday that almost every man he approached
about his business had seen his advertisement
wanted. He says he is thoroughly satisfied
with the CHRONICLE as an advertising med-
UNI, and we'll he may be- for we want advertis-
ers to understand distinctly that we claim Tor our
WEEKLY in this county twice the circulation of
any other paper, and in East Tennessee much
larger circulation than any Newspaper pub
lished.
OF the DAILY CHRONICLE there is but one
verdict and that is that it is vastly ahead in cir
cuation of any other published in East Ten
nessee No one disputes this fact. 5ea

and that it shall DO completed within year.
When completed there will be a roadway egh-
teen feet wide for vehicles, with foot walks OF
