of the country. We expect to defend
the present National Administration so
long as it conducts public affairs in the
satisfactory manner which has character
lied its past history. We do this because
we believe the principles of the Republic

shall pursue this course aud advocate what
we believe to be right, with whateverabil-

of our nature, we will accord to others
the right to think and act for
themselves, and in our criticisms of hose
with whom we may differ we will endeav-
or TO exercise that courtesy toward others
which We expect in return from those who
may differ with us.
But while we are earnestly engaged ill

An Advocate Of Free Schools.

Regarding FREE Schools as indispensa-
bic to the public welfare, we will continue
to advocate the establishment in our State,
of perfect Free School system.
In addition to all this, the PRESIDENTIAL
CONTEST comes off next year in which we
expect to take an active part. We will
keep our readers fully posted on every
topic of interest connected with the cam
vass. Excitement will run high, and
everybody will want the latest news. This
we will faithfully furnish to our pa
irons.
In consideration of all this, we call upon
our friends everywhere to rally to our sup
port. Let CLUBS be made up at every post
office. Let each one of our friends inter-
est himself in the matter and soon our cir
culatiOn will be increased ten-fOld, and our
facilities for doing good cOrrespOndingly
increased. Let the work begin at once SO
that subscribers may begin with the NEW
YEAR. Send on your clubs, and if you
can't make clubs, send on your single sub

East Tennessee.

Any enterprise having this end in view ,
will always receive our earnest support.
We want to see our population doubled,
and our wealth quadrupIed before another
census shall be taken. We feel tlattered
with the prospect, and believe that our
humble efforts already made in that direc-
ton are being appreciated. There are
more numbers of the CHRONICLE being
sent out of the State to those looking for
homes in Tennessee, than of any other
journal published in the State. We will
never relax our efforts to induce immigra-
ion to this State and to the South.

The Democrats having no hope of sue
ceeding in electing a candidate for the
Presidency, have given up their entire
time to the meddlesome work of creating
i'll feeling among the Republicans. They
tried hard to bring Colfax out in opposi
ton to Grant-that did not succeed; but
not for want of persistent effort. Then
they turned their attention to the en-
couragemept of Carl Schurz in his effort
to 'beat Grant, but things have turned
out so differently from what they expect
ed, that they are likely to react and give
them more trouble than they will the Re

loud enough for Republicans to hear them,
they must appear to be in favor of Gree

Their latest attempt to set Republicans
by the cars, was report that Senator
Morton was secretly working to defeat
Grant, and secure the nomination for the
Presidency for himself The lie was ex-

Democrats in Marshall county who
have held office ever since they have been
in the county, and have raised respectable
families at the expense of the people,
think that four years is long enough for one
Administration to be in power. They say
that men become corrupt when retained
too long in ofnce-they "know how it is
themselves"

In this county where the Democrats
have had everything their own way, and
run the taxes up higher than in any other
county in the State, they don't talk much
about electing Liberal Republicans for
state or county offices. In St. Joseph
county the Democrats have almost forgot
ten that they ever were anything but Lib
eral Republicans.
