NEW YORK, Oct. Son Saturday while
the steamers Charleston and South Caro-
lima were being loaded one of the cases
gaped open and it was discovered to con-
tain fireworks. The custom house officer
thereupOn made an examination and
found several cases cOntainining fireworks
of every description, and other manufac-
lures from gun powder. These boxes were
invoiced as fancy goods. and were accord
ingly seized. 1t is thought that in this
way the steamer Bienville was set on fire,

TIE news from Middle and West Ten
nessse is that the Democrats are sending a

than they did to the last. This being SO, it
behooves the people of East Tennessee to
zee that their very best men are put for
ward for this responsible position Let us
send from every county men, of progress
I'VE ideas. The people of the State are
rtulIy alive to- the necessity of drawing
rom abroad increased population, capital
md enterprise. They feel, too, the need
of a general public school system, of
better county roads, Of protecting our
State credit and promoting the growth of
our industries and advancing the interests
of the working men, All these are issues
before the people and we want the next
Legislature to be composed largely of men
who have progressive, sensible and practi-c
cal views on these subjects. This lis no
time for sending ordinary men to Nash
Vile. If we want to send new life blood
through the State and make it grow with
new energy and population we must make
the effort. An honest, intelligent, public,
spirited and progressive Legislature would
be worth more to Tennessee than any 9TH

YESTERDAYS VERDICT


n 11tldI IS -----4---- Ii2 \ Y|JI
Firm as her iron-ribbed hills, rich in pa
trlotism as her mines are in wealth, the
noble old commonwealth of Pennsylvania
stands immovable in the column of Repub-
can States. Not the combined hosts of
Democracy and recreant Republicans not
the cloud of calumnies heaped upon one Of
her bravest and truest soldiers: not the
power of money or the devices of unscrup-
ulous politicians like Mcclure, could move
her solid, answering patriots. To-day,
nobler than ever, grander even than when
bathed in the blood of her fallen soldiers
on the day of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania
stands forth, as in fact the Keystone of the
Republic. For this glorious victory of yes
terday the Republicans of the second State
In the Union deserve the highest ere di
as they will receive the warmest cohgratu-
latiOns from their associates throughout the
nation. Their triumph is the etriumph of
next November. The election of Hart
ranft means the election of Grant and
Wilson, all of this and something more-i
means for the South peace, prosperity and
brighter future. This is the lesson
flashed through electric wires from the
hills, vallies and busy marts of glorious
cid pennsylvania. ta o. 7-
. Ohio, the native State of the ,slandered
President, true to the glorious record made
by her people and her gallant .soldiery,
stands firm by the good old party and
speaks to-day as. emphatically as in the
memorable Brough campaign of1S63. Ohio,
never doubted where she would stand to-
day. There never was a time when her
vote was uncertain. Her Republicans
sometimes need pretty vigorous opposi-
ton to arouse them, but they hardly had
enough yesterday to wake them up to a
sense of danger. Fl
Iowa and Nebraska are into line where
they will be in November. 5855 . sd
Indiana alone is uncertain: Right. nobly
have her Republicans fought their fight,
and wesyet believe that victory will perch
upon the banner of Morton andtBrown.
Our special advices from Washington
and Cincinnati, dated this morning, still
give us strong reason to hope that Indi-
ana will prove all right. 8 f +, ioJ big. 3..H
But enough is definitely shown in the
CHRONICLES special dispatches to satisfy
the last doubling Thomas that Greeley's
last hope has vanished He will next No
vember be the worst defeated candidate
that ever ran for the Presidency. His sup
porters, from every creed and party, will
desert him inl droves, now that his fate is
sealed. ~. .. tr+riL 81
All hail, say We, TO the glorious States of
Pennsylvania, Ohio, Iowa, Nebraska, and
to Indiana, too; for, if not victorious, her
deserve it. 7a -a iPN
And now the work of November is
simply to record the fat pronounced yes
terday. Grant is already vindicated, and
though not in a position to answer the
vile ISLANDERS heaped upon him, the people
of the great Middle States have spoken for
him and silenced his traducers amid the
thunders of their appreciation.

EDITORS CHRONICLE: The Monroe County
Agricultural Fair at this place has Just conelud-
ed. The exposition continued throughout
Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday,
there being in attendariee an exceedingly large
crowd each day. The number and excellent
quality of things on exhibition were beyond the
anticipations of even the most sanguine, and
showed that the little man who told US in q
speech during the Fair that our county was ex-
hausted and impoverished had prepared his re-
marks from data gathered elsewhere.
There was distributed very large number of
costly and appropriate premiums, and generally
to the satisfaction of ALL Mr.. Charlton, of
Knoxville, delivered an excellent and effective
address to the people in attendance on Friday.
The best of order and good feeling prevailed

Ritter Controversy.

The temperance organs are waglng
bitter war on the manufacturers OF al
coholic bitters, and their attacks are
resented with equal bitterness by the
latter, who seem determined to pros
ecute the quarrel to the bitter end. In
the meantime a novelty in tonic medi-
cines is making immense progress in
he confidence of all classes and condi-
fions of society throughout the United
States and British America. We refer
to DIR. WALKERS CALIFORNIA VINEGAE
BIrTERs, and we cali it a novelty IN ton
les because it contains no alcohol-an
article heretofore considered essential
i'll medical invigorants. The abstemious
portion of the community approve the
omission, and as the new remedy is
curing dyspepsia, biliousness, nervous
affections, and, in fact, majority of the
diseases, external and internal, which
prevail, it is difficult to see how the
more self-indulgent portion of our fell
fow citizens can conscienciOusly object
to it. One thing is certain, if ever there
was what the French call "grand suc-
cess" the sudden and continually in
creasing popularity of the Vinegar Bit
ters, deserves that name. The advocates
of temperance point to the salutary eff
fects produced by this inalcoholic re-
storative as proof that spirituous
stimulants are not needed for medicinal
purposes position which has been
recently taken by many eminent medi-
cal practitioners.
