The newspapers arc all pitching into the
New York Herald rs 4 promoter OF vice by
its personal" and other advertisements.
Now, We think this combined attack IS UNI
fair. The Herald has its sins, and SO nave
other papers. If the Herald is great SIN
Nor there are few journals that arc ullm-
pcacbabIc concerning the class of auVcrlls-
iru which may he styled infamous. Then
a paper like the Herald, which everybody
wants to advertise in, IL subjected TO more
temptations than some papers Wnlch very
| few pcpulc think of advertising IN. Mi.
! BENNETT is almost off the stage, and de-
serves some iorbcarancc. 1t Is true That
| his power of resistance to temptation was
. not very great in other days; but let those
who are blessed with more sturdy mental
sincws thank God and pity BENNETT. If
; men arc to be judged according to their
| cndowmcnts, there be some sanctmonous
journalists who will have probably harder
! time tlI,n BENNETT.
| We say that indiScrctions and foibles Of
greater or less degree mark journalism gen
orally in this country. The nation that
! rapidly increases in wealth also increases III
| depravity and crime. Especially does the
public taste bscome corrupted ana the
puhlic drlcacy become bluntcd. IL is not
possible for the press 10 escape the influence
of surrounding circumstances. 1t would
be better for the assailants of BENNETT to
confess themselves, and pray for him. The
best OF them may mend their ways.

WHY do ladies, walking along the streets,
50 pcrsistcntly turn their faces towards the
large panes of plate-slass in the fronts of
the fiue stores? We think we know. 1t is
because they thus sec themselves at full
length. Now, as most all of them are very
beautiful, we are not surprised at this. We
all admire them, and we cannot see how
they can avoid little standardization.

A New CoUNrY.-Thc Tullahoma Times
of the lth instant saysa movement is on
foot and a petition in circulation to obtain
a new county to be formed of portions of
Bedford, Franklin, Coffee, and Lincoln
counties. The Times editor says he has
heard expressions o fopinion by many sub
stantial and influential citizens ofthc dis
trictS proposed to be taken in the new
county, and they are unanimously for the
movement, and that every citizen of Tul-
Jahoma is in favor of the movement. Now,
we would be glad to see Tullahoma become
q capital of some county, but we must de
muir to the object being effected by lop'
ping off q portion of Franklin. and we
suggest to all persons living in that portion
of our county endangered, to take imme-
6iate steps adverse to such action. Ifthey
do not want to be taxed in order to build
u new Courthouse, and foot other bills, let
them send in a petition at once to the Rep
resentative of our county Capt. G. ii
Beam and ask that Franklin county be left
intact 50 far as this new county movement
is concerned. 1t is u movement gotten up
in the interest off few, we fear, ut the OK
pense of the many.

OUR CoURTnoUsE.-We are pleased with
the improvements being made upon our
"temple of justicc,' 1t is q splendid build
ing and has been cruelty neglected. But
the County Court, at its last session. took
the matter in hand and appointed Ed.
Jackson, John L. Slater and Glenn. Ar
ledge Commissioners to contract for hav-
ing the building covered with new shin
giles, and generally fixed up. Said Com
missioners have displayed good Judgment
in selecting, Capt. N. W. Wilcox to do the
needed repairs. He Is a good workman,
takes a pride in what he does, will not
slight his work, nor allow it to be done by
by those working under him. And mas
much as the Commissioners are invested
with discretionary powers, we nope ana
believe they will not stop short of having
the building in perfect repair in all re-
spects. When it is painted, pencil
ed, and fully repaired, we feel sure that
the county as Il whole will feel proud of it.
And we are assured that it will be taken
better care of in future. The doors Will
be kept locked and rude boys kept out SO
that decent people will not be disguised il
they should choose to so up to the dome
in order to get one of the finest views to be
had in the county.
In connection with this improvement OF
our Courthouse, we notice that efforts are
being made to have a clock put into the
dome, as was the intention when the build
ing was erected. The face boards for the
clock are already painted, and VIC under
stand that 5000 will pay for a clock. Sure
ly tho County Court will give 500, the
corporation 500, and the balance can DC
raised by private subscription. And then
We all will be at no loss to know the Time
of day. The Sheriff need not strain ms
lungs in order to announce the opening
Of court. People from the country heeo
only to cast an upward glance to know tho
exact hour of the day. Its honest tones
will regulate the whole town as to whef
TO 90 to work or when to leave oil labor
And, in fact, we all mightsel our watches
for the town clock will keep us posted
And then. it Is ornamental as well as use
full. Let us have the clock. To not hav'
it would .bcspeak higgardness and short
sighteGness which we cannot believe at
tach to our people, and If the County Court
Corporation and the people do not unite u
pay for a good clock We shall be much dis
appointed.
