Greene Comfy Items.

Though nothing of Importance has tran
spired worthy of note for the past week or
two, yet thought word or two written
from Greene county would not interfere
with the usual run of affairs. Our people
are noted for their steady habits and strict
to an economical point in business affairs.
1t is an impossibility to create a stir.
Politics has not had its warning pecu-
liarities, as there has not been anything to
create it. The candidates for the different
offices have not given us call.
/ noticed through the Sentinel that q
number of the Republicans of the county
intend to support Carter. Who they are Is
not known.
Our narrow gauge is being pushed for
ward with considerabl rapidity, as l un-
derstand nearly three miles are graded.
The Board of Directors are determined
that the enterprise shall not fail, and they
deserve great credit for what they have
done, as they have had great deal
of opposition to content with. Some
of the stockholders have refused to pay
their installments, because the road did
not pass by the points they had designated,
and others that they will not pay until A.
and b. are pressed This, l am sorry to
state, causes considerable doubts as to the
success of this enterprise, but the board,
| with all their influences, are bound to
carry the work forward, and those who
walt on OIDeTS anu DTllB lOINuIu CNSlJ
hindrance shall feel the effects of power
| full influence.
Our farmers who are engaged in hauling
iron from the furnaces are losing instead
of making money, as the prices paid dc
not justify them in the loss of time, horse
flesh and the wear and tear Of their rolling
stock. The improvement of their lands
and the development Of the agricultural
resources of the county would result in
more actual wealth than hauling iron tC
Greenevile.
The farms within the vicinity of the
furnaces have been neglected. as the sup
plies of flour and bacon for these furnaces
come from st. Louis, Missouri. At the
present time no surplus bacon can be fount
anywhere.
The grading on this road, / understand
is not going to exceed $4,000 per mile
which is very light, taking into considera
ton the nature of the country over which
it passes.
Farmers are busily engaged in prepar
ing to sow wheat. A large area will b.
sown. AB.

JAcKsBoRo', TENN, Sept. IS, 1872.
EDS. CHRONICLE: Your paper con-
tanning report of my speech in Knoxville
on the 10th inst, has Just reached me.
Scrupulously anxious not to make single
incorrect statement, L have carefully
scrutinized the report and have noted the
following typographical errors:
In the list of persons who drew railroad
bonds under Republican laws, there are
two errors:
LIST. The name of C. j. Mckinney, who
drew ST. 900 in bonds for the Rogersville
and Jefferson road is, omitted.
I'd. p. H. Marbury drew S4OO 900 for the
McMinnville and Manchester road. / am
reported as saying that he drew SID, OOO
for the Nashville and Chattanooga road.
With these two corrections the column
will foot up So, 293, 600 as shown in your
report. ans,
/ am also reported as saying that the
inspectors of the Penitentiary i'll their re-
port to the Legislature show that the PEN
itentiary cleared more than $4,000 year
over and above all expenses" L said more
than SAL, 900 year"
The report Of my speech, in every other
particular, is substantially correct, and is
highly creditable to your compositors. =,
And desire here to state that neal y all
of nv facts and figures come either from
published or unpublished official reports,
or from Democratic sources. In every case
/ have shot rather under than over the
mark. For instance, if L had calculated
fine interest on the debt of the railroads
sold, down to the day of sale, the discrep-
ancy between what they owed the state
and what they were sold for would have
been still more monstrous. But took the
statement of their debt from the Comp
trollels report of December 6, 1870, where
as several railroads were sold about one
wear after said report was made out.
Respectfully,
HENRY r. GIBSON.

STUDY OF NATURAL HISTORY M
TANT.-Complain was made at the
New York Farmers Club the other day
that the mice are destroying thousands of
young trees throughout the country. A
member made the very sensible suggestion
that this is due, in a measure, to the fact
that the natural enemies of the field mice
are so generally destroyed by thoughtless
owners of shot-guns. For every boy who
has gun shoots every owl and hawk he
can lay his eyes upon, and traps aud kills
every skunk that sheds his perfume in the
fields. This is true. And it illustrates
the necessity for more thorough and uni
versal study of Natural History in our Ru-
raj schools. Our boys and girls are taught
less of what they ought to know and more
of what is of no earthly use to them. Of
W hat is right about them and before their
eyes daily they know least--and yet it is a
kind of knowledge they will find of most
use to them in the practical affairs OF farm
life. A learned doctor said that the small
snakes are also great enemies OF mice, and
in some countries they are never killed be-
cause they are regarded efficient agents III
the destruction OF these pests. And yet
what American farmer boy ever fails to
kill a snake if he can find club or stone to
do it with ?--even those snakes that are at
least as harmless and beautiful as any
thing created ? The prejudice against
snakes is something greatly to be regretted.
1t is a barbarism akin to that which re-
suited in the burning Of witches in the
early times and one Of these days it will
be looked upon by civilized people in much
the same light.

A WINTER SONG.


By SUSAN COOLIDGE. 3D. .
Where does the Winter hide away :"
My Darling asked, her eyes of blue
Fixed upon mine. where does he stay
All the long Spring and summer through
How can he keep his Ice and snow
From getting melted In the sun
I'm very glad he does, you know;
There wouldn't be @ bit of fun
without them. But want to hear
Just how he does it. Let me sit
Upon your lap. Now, Auntie, dear,
Tell me about it-every bit'
So then 1 told my pet this tale
When days grow warm and blue birds fly,
Old Winter trembles he turns pale,
And hurries to the mountains high.
There In a cave concealed he lies,
And, ogre-like, he tries to fling
His net, with sudden, swift surprise,
Over the pretty, passing Spring.
Sometimes her garments airy flow
He clutches In his fingers grim;
But she Is nimbler than her foe,
And laughs and mocks, escaping him,
And flies, Then Summer with a leap,
Bounds forward. Her he dare not hout
So rolls him up in clouds to sleep, 4,
Nor ever ventures TO peep out,
Until her grief and ardent reign
over, with Nlne-wreatnS garlandeu,
And hands heaped high with golden grain,
The gentle autumn comes instead.
And then, all then, he laughs aloud
A cruel laugh and full of glee; ~ ..
And, tossing of the covering cloud,
He rises for ali men to see.
First DER the mountains topmost peak
His snowy forehead comes in sight,
And then his eyebrows, wild and bleak,
And then his eyes Of flashing light
And step by step adown the hill
He moves, toward the abodes of men
The Autumn falters, pale and chill,
Is seized is fettered in his den.
The flowers grow pale and droop and die;
The woods shake Off their leaves for fear;
The butterflies and birds all fly;
And silence settles on the year.
Are you not sorry when they go?
Why do you laugh and shake your head2
Why do you love the winter so I.
"'Cause make snow-balls," Darling said.
Oh philosophic eyes of blue,
Would that some older eyes know
Could learn your secret-find, like you,
Sunshine in cloud and JOY in snow
