Ten,pernnce Picnic.

At the appointed hour the members of the
several Divisions of the Sons of Temperance
and the Lodge Of Good Templars, of this city,
together with invited brethren from other d.
visions, assembled yesterday morning in front
of the court house, where they formed
in procession by Chief Marshal, w. Q.
Brandon and the Assistants Marshal and march
ed TO the depot, whittier had already repaired u
large number of childran and ladies' families
of the members, and and soon the train started
and reached its destination, Loves Cave, where
they at once set about spending the day in the
manner usually observed on such occasions
But they were forced TO suspend the festivities
for n while, on account of heavy shower of
rain which forced them to seek refuge in Mr.
Loves barn, who, we will state in this
connection, was present and did everything
in his power to make the occasion pass off pleas
antly. While the rain was falling, the services of
two disciples of "Ole Bull" we're called into
play and clear space on the floor was occupied
by several couples keeping time to the lively
notes of the violin.
After the shower was over the party again re-
paired TO the grove and after visiting the caves
spent the time pleasantly until dinner was an
noupced, when all partook of the repast with
sharpened appetites.
Afler dinner short speeches were made by
Messrs. David Richards, Braine, McLemore
and Waters on the subject of the temperance
reform, which was listened to with great atten-
ton
Thos. Margraves, the pioneer temperance
man of East Tennessee, was pr esent, and TO see
the delight with which he entered into the spir-
it of the occasion was cheering to the young re-
cruits in the temperance army
The party returned to the city about four
o clock Z. NJ, after having spent pleasant day,
under circumstances which would have daunted
any but the cold water brigade We hope that
the success of this the first temperance picnic
renee will be looked forward to with eagerness
and remembered with pride and pleasure.

DEAF AND DUMB ASYLUM.
Annual ExamInation of Glasses.

At nine o'clock yesterday morning the an
nual examination of classes at the Deaf and
Dumb Asylum commenced and continued
about four hours. The result was highly salts
factory and evinced degree of proficiency on
the part ofthe pupils that was truly gratifying:
A number of our citizens were present and
witnessed the exercises. The number in attend
ance is about one hundred and ten and they are
divided into seven classes. The classes were eX-
ahmed in the following order:
First, the class taught by Mr. W o Brannumi
the second Mr. w + Pope's; third, MIR l. A
Houghton's fourth, Miss George Sanford :
fifth, Mr. T L Moses sixth Rev j A Lyons !;
eighth, Mr. ID 9 Hommels. The three first
named teachers are mutes.
The vacation commences on Monday, when
the majority of the pupils will leave for their
homes
The examination just closed is regarded as the
best that has heretofore taken place which is Il
source of satisfaction to ali who appreciate the
noble charity of the State in providing for the
education of her unfortunate children. Prof.
Ijams, nc Principal of the institution, is devo-
ted to the great work under his charge and is
aided by an efficient corps of conscientious
teachers

wanted His Dinner.

Alex. L. Whaling, now on the Richmond and
Danville Railroad, was for many years an en-
gineer on the East Tennessee and Virginia
Railroad and many are the anecdotes that are
told of him. On one occasion while Mr..
Hoxsie was Superintendent, Whaling had the
misfortune TO ditch train, and was so dumb
founded at the magnitude of the accident that
he made no effort to get it on the track, and was
standing helplessly by when the Superintend-
ent approached. On seeing him Whaling
looked relieved and stepping up exclaimed
"Mr. Hoxsie, I'm mighty glad you've come.
Don't know what I'd have done without you.
If you'll get these cars on the track, I'll be
here to Mr.. IS and get my dinner"
Mr.. Hoxsie didn't swear, he never does, but
was too astounded at Whaling's impudence to
interpose any objection, and he went and salts
fed his hunger,

EDITORS CHRONICLE: 1t was our happy priv
ilege TO be present at the closing exercises of
the Mouse Greek Male and Female Academy
at Mouse Creek, Tennessee on the 3lst ult., and
were forcibly struck with the zeal OF the people
of that growing little village and girding vicin-.
tiles, in their efforts to advance the cause of
Education. Notwithstanding within the last
ten years they have seen two academies con-
sumed by the flames, yet, they have erected a
third, beautiful two-story brick, and the five
consisted of rehearsals declamations, compost
tons, dialogues, orations, and vocal and instru-
mental music by Mrs. Gillespe's musical class,
and also the excellent music given by the
l.. HuSst interested and entertained well-be
haved audience, supposed to number eight hun
dred TO thousand persons. by whom this day
will long be remembered. as one Of scholastic
festival and literary anniversary. May success
crown their every effort, SPECTATOR.

The peopie,s s,amp Of value.

The Government endorsement, which legal
ICES the sale of Plantation Bitters, is not the
only stamp affixed TO that famous Vegetable
Tonic. 1t bears, in addition to that official sane
ton, the still more valuable stamp of public APP
probation This inestimable voucher of its rare
properties as Tonic, Corrective and Altera-
tive, is of much earlier date than the Govern
ment credenta for millions of sick persons
had pronounced it the Grand Specific of the
Age long before Congress thought of taxing
proprietary medicines. 1t is unnecessary to re-
peat, in detail, the properties of this wonderful
Vegetable Invigorant The best reference that
can be offered to those who desire the full par
tcuars of its virtues is the General Public.
Ask those who have tried it as u remedy for
dyspepsia, constipation, billousness, intermit-
tent fevers, nervous debility, rheumatism, sea
sickness, low spirits, or loss of vital power, what
Plantation Bitters has done for them, and be

clearly, that the farmers of East Tennessee

transaction is satisfactorialy closed and the
wheat shipped forward and sold in some of the
Eastern markets. leaving fair profit to the
shipper, complimentary letters accompany the
returns and strong solicitations for further con-
signments. This transaction fixes the market,
and now the excitement is up, dozen purchas-
ers enter the market, the farmers anxious las

taking advantage of the excitement in selling

to reclamation will certainly not buy the re-
naming half of the crop unless at greatly re-
duced prices. The price goes down, not be-
cause Of an actual decline in the market, but
because Tennessee wheat is under par. Com
mission merchants complain the quality varies
often several grades in the same car load, re-
quirng each sack to be sampled, &C., and we
state this as a fact, that in several instances we

mysterious Disappearance.

The Jonesboro Flag has received commu-
nication from gentleman residing at Jefferson,
Ashe county, n c., concerning the mysterious
disappearance of a man temporarily. residing
near Flag Pond, Tennessee, and who had been
working on mill for one John Eldrith at that
time, which was near completed. mysteriously
disappeared from Ashe county, n. O., in Octo-
Der last. He went on q visit some fifteen miles
from his work, and was seen returning on the
following Sunday evening, between shutdown
and dark, and within few miles of where he
was stopping. He was asked to stay all night
but refused, saying he had promised Eldrith
that he would be bacll home that night He
started on his way, and when about mile from
the house loud calls for help were heard. About
daylight next morning his horse came into Ell
drth's premises 1t is supposed that he had
some money with him when he left home
There was a search made in two or three days
after he was missing, and with no result. 1t is
feared he has met with foul play.
