tn the Rescue!

The energetic and ever vigilant President OF
the Eastern Division Fair has spoken to the
public. as he always speaks, to the point; and,
as the writer is somewhat of q professional ca
horter, he will presume to follow up the caus-
tic remarks and urgent appeals OF Chancellor
Temple with few words of application:
He tells the reader that the citizens OF Knox
vile, Knox county and East Tennessee ought
to take stock in this great enterprise NOW the
public are not aware cannot be- that there Is
hanging over and weighing down, like terrible
incubus, this institution say they cannot be
aware of this stupendous fact or else they would
come to its relief l have access to the books
and papers and know whereof l affirm. 1t IS so,
and the larger proportion OF this vast amount
is owing to an indulgent creditor, who says he
can't waitany longer for his Dues that he has
been patient and indulgent; and that he must
have his pay in order to meet his own obliga-
tons. l happen to know that he has shown no
disposition to annoy or Cypress the institution,
but, on the contrary, has labored with indefat-
igable zeal and industry to contribute to Its sue
cess. O. no 90.
Then, there is pressing debt we owe the
MesSrs. Howell, from whom we purchased
part of the land. These gentlemen, to my GER
tain knowledge, have been honorable and for
bearing towards u.s. They have never sought
to cripple our operations by litigation or other
wise, when it was in their power to do so. But
patience with both of these parties is becoming
threadbare, and they now assure US that they
will be compelled. from the sternest necessity,
to obtain their rights at the end of the law. We
can't blame them. They are only doing what
any of US would do under like circumstances.
There is but one aCGy to obtain relief-aoe mast
increase or stock, as Judge Temple suggests.
There is no lodging this issue unless we have
made up our minds to let our property come UNI
der the hammer Are we ready for that? Think
twice The city of Knoxville could meet
this entire Indebtedness if she would. 1t could
be made up in small sums, so small, indeed,
that her citizens would not feel it. But to make
a long matter a short one, / will submit the fol-
lowing proposition. Let it be acted upon at
once, and in thirty days we will be free from
debt It is this There are one hundred men
in this city who could subscribe stock to the
amount of thirty dollats each seventy-fve,
twenty each, and fifty, ten each. This would
give us five thousand dollars.
Now if they will do this, l will agree to can
vass Knox county from one end to the other,
and will pledge myself, if energy and perse-
verance can do it, to raise three thousand dol
lars more. This viii put us out of debt.
Now, gentlemen, what say you Will you
''cop1e to time 2" Business IS business" We
have done grind aoork' long enough. The
time for action has come. Let US be ''tireky."
l am ready to wait, with the utmost complais-
ance, upon all anxious gentlemen to enter their
names upon our stock books as stockholders.

A Stable Institution.

just ut the period when all stable-men were
complaining that the horse-ointments of the day
were unstable remedies, the Mustang Liniment
made its entree in Missouri, without any -four
ish of trumpets, and within one year, became
the favorite ambrocation for the external dis
tempers and injuries of horses and cattle in all
the Western and Southern States. From that
time to this it has never had rival in the esti-
nation of accomplished horsemen; nor is its
household reputation as a cure of rheumatism,
neuralgia, sore nipples and caked breasts, tu-
mors, mumps, sore throat. earache, toothache,
bruises, burns, wounds and sprains, a whit be-
hind its celebrity as horse Liniment. The
Mothers of America know its value, and apply
it promptly to the external injuries of the ris-
ing generation" and in fact there is not city
or township in the United States where the
Mustang Liniment is not regarded by both
sexes and every class as a blessing TO the COM
munity.

Snow Birds.

The snow bird is remarked among ornitholo-
gists for the obscurity which hangs around its
history. On the first approach of winter it sud-
denly makes its appearance, apparently driven
by the inclemency of the weather to court the
society of man. Whence it comes no man can
tell, and whittier it goes (for its exit IS as sud
den as its entrance) no one has been able to dis
cover. 1t is supposed by some to be another
bird, only that its plumage, by some mysterious
and irresistible power has been suddenly
changed. There is q feeling of melancholy
passing over the mind when the bleak and DIRE
~ landscape, deserted by, all other tenants
the mournful snow bird. Yet in the bitterest
weather he is always gay and lively, and the
gloominess of the scenery around him, seems to
have no sadden ing influence upon his cheerful
heart .

East Tennessee Female Institute.

The spring session will commence on We'd
nesday, Jan, a. and continue twenty weeks.
The efficiency and success of this Institute are
due, in large measures, to the unusual ability
and high character of its pupils Good and
able students, as we'll as efficient teachers, are
necessary to make seminary that inspires, de-
velops and molds high character. Parents
wishing for their daughters clear, sharp and
quick intellects, great and good hearts and true
and high ideals of self-reliant, but modest and
christian womanhood, will find all the arrange
ments and conduct of this Institute steadily ar
irving at these ends.
Be and do what God and the good approves
is the Seminary motto

4 valuable PrecautiOn.

y few years ago there were persons found
who did not believe in insurance, either fire or
hte but the experience of the shrewdest men
shows that such precautions are profitable: The
came experience demonstrates the value OF light
ming rods for they not only protect against loss
OF life, but of property also. A good rod, a
thorough conductor of electricity, such as the
pittsburgh Cable rod =" will never failto avert
danger. 1t is not expensive, is put up in one
piece, has no joints, and is reasonable in price.
II gives satisfaction wherever used, and can
show the highest testimonials in Memphis and
Chattanooga. i23tf

An Irafe Individual.

VIM. Kelly, citizen of McMinn county, We
believe, created some excitement yesterday by
attempting to shoot an inofensive colored man,
who so far as we could learn, had unconscious
ly incurred his wrath. He had his pistol cooked;
but it was wrenched from him before ne could
fire, when it was found that the hammer would
not go down at ALL Whisky, we presume,
was the cause, as the irate individual
taken in charge by the sheriff, and fur,
nished lodging last night at the expense of
the county, and will probably have an oppor-
tunity to reconcile his injured feelings before a
jury of the Criminal Court of Knox county,
and may learn that it wont pay to be shooting
at men.
