"A Discovery AbOnt Corn.

In this thinking and obscrvant age new
ideas and discoveries Are constantly being
made.
An intelligent and reliable farmer, who
has for. many years been making expert
ments '&ith corn, has discovered an impor-
tancc and value in replantcd corn, which
lsquite novelty and worthy of publication.
We have always thought replanted corn
was of little consequence; he rcplauts,
whether it is needed or motor rather he
plants two weeks after the crop is planted,
about every fifteenth row eaci, way. He
says If the weather becomes dry during
the filling time the silk and tassel both be-
come dry and dead. In this condition, il
it should become seasonable, the silk re-
wives and renews, but the tassel does not
recover. Then for want Of pollen the new
silk is unable to fill the office for which it
was designated. The pollen from the re-
planted corn is then ready to supply the
silk, and the filling is completed. lie says
nearly all the abortive ears, so common in
the corn crop, are caused by the want of
pollen, and that he has known ears to
double their size in the second ling.

idea how our two Governors are managing

Governor No. /, (Rced,) after issuing
his proclamation OF Monday last, left in
company with j. G. Gibbs, Secretary Of
State, for Jacksonville, to attend the Grant
Convention. Since then nothing definite
has been heard Of them. l. is rum0red
that Gibbs, in company with j. 5. Adams,
commissioner Of Immigration, are soiourn-
ing somewhere i'll that classic locality
known rs "Cp the st. John'S.' Gibbs, be-
fore leaving the capital, detached the great
seal of the State from the press and pock-
eted it; he also carried off the commission
register and all blank commissions in his
office. 1t is asserted here that warrants,
issued by the United States commissioner,
arc i'll waiting at Jacksonville to arrest

i'll the region Of the executive chamber,
which is now undergoing repairs, and has
issued his proclamation to-day, charging
heed with attempting TO uStIrp the au-
thority of the Chief Executive of the State,
and concludes the same by "warniDg the
people, and all officers of the State, not to
obey or i'll any manner respect the pre-
tended authority Of the said Harrison
Reed"
The Supreme Court meets tomorrow,
and it may bring on the issue as to whom
belongs the right to preside as Chief Magis-
trate. IT is supposed that Days proclama-
ton is either intended to scare Reed off
astngether, or force him into court as the

WHILE ex-President- Johnson was de-
livering his speech at Memphis Wednesday
evening, he was frequently interrupted in
a rude and boisterous manner. Some one
propounded the question to him, "Where
are the Democratic and Republican par
ties?" He answered.: va
i would say just this in answer to that, by
way of being pleasant, that have, think, as
much of the Democracy left in me as you can
find anywhere. [Applause and laughter. I mean

WIN. CRUTcHFIELD.

In the selection of Mr.. Crutchfield as
their standard bearer in the Third District,
the Republicans have done well. He is
emphatically man of the people. He is
not a politician in any sense of the word
but man of strong native intellect, and
entertains broad views on all questions af-
fecting the public interest. He is one of
the solid men of Chattanooga and is fit
representative of the solid yeomanry of his
district. We trust that our friends will
give him a united support and doubt mot,
but that he will be triumphantly elected.

WE have never seen the time when we

to fall to its present low and degraded es.
tate. We have always believed that its
leaders were the worst men outside or in

desire to see them SO deeply Inundated as
they now are. The idea of the party be-

initiation which their bitterest and most
unrelenting foes could not have had the

DEMOCRATIC FINANCIERING.

Unless the facts and figures which have
been presented in Senator Gibson's speech,
published in the CHRONICLE, are disprov-
cd, the Democratic party in Tennessee
stands convicted of the most stupendous
frauds that have ever been perpetrated OH
the tax payers of this commonwealth.
Railroads that cost the State $685., 900
were disposed of for the sum of Sc, zoe, 800.
The Winchester and Alabama road, which
had received aid from the State to the
amount of 81 800 900, was sold for $500, 900
IN state bonds, which had cost the pur-
chasers about $4,000 in cash. They in
turn disposed of their fine bargain for
ooVO'OOO, clear profit of at least 5000. 900.
