BY the President
HAMILTON FISH .Sec'y ofState.

P. +. W. Peck, one Of Chicago's
pioneer citizens, died, Monday evening
aged 81 years. Mr.. Peck came to
Chicago in 1881, and erected the first
frame building and first brick building.
He was one of the wealthest of its citi-
zens. His property consisted largely
of llndad estate, which, he leased to
parties for long terms on condition
that they wouldimpr owe it. For this
reason, his estate has suffered b t
little depreci alton by the fire. He
was man Of peculiar nature, often
doing good by stealth, but avoiding all
ostentatious benevolence.

A crazy colored woman in Bellevue street,
North Knoxville, has been for some time O
great source ofannoyance to the citizens in that
vicinity, on account Of her cries and shrieks.
She has to be restrained other personal liberty,
and is tied down fat on a bedstead almost des-
ttute Of clothing. She is in keeping of poor peo-
pie ofherovn color, who havesh1manely taken.
pity on the unfortunate creature and kept her
from AFFECT starvation, though lily able to aid
any one. This is a case that calls for the inter.
vsntion of official authority.

We have conversed with several gentlemen
from different portions Of Knox county, and
throughout East Tennessee, regarding the
prospects for the wheat crop. In some of the
bottoms the rust has seriously affected the
growing grain, but We are glad that this is not
by any means general, and that the larger por-
ton of the crop will, from present indications,
more than equal the average, In the lower
counties, farmers have begun cutting the early
wheat, and the yield will be very fine.
