TIE BITTER PILL.
Across the BIoody CbaSm.

EDITORS CHRONICLE: am an old line Doug
las Democrat, but do not swallow Cincinnati
Baltimore pills If the National Convention
at Baltimore had nominated man whose Dem
ocratic principles were known and endorsed l
would have endorsed the nominee of said con-
vention. But when we come to endorse man
whose record has been antagonistic to the Dem
ocratic party during his public career and one
who has written more and said more than any
other man against the Conservative party, can
not swallow the pill Therefore l choose in the
political contest to take sides with one that is
known to be true to his party, and as such l cast
my vote for Grant and Wilson and their party
Can't swallow the pill, boys, too bitter by half
Attempting to take it makes the odd Demo,
Gratis laugh;
Too long in the harness, boys, can't desert the
old ship,
But for Grant and for Wilson, boys our vote,
let her rip,
Yours,

A Knoxville sharper Caught.

r. a. McAffrey, the pardoned convict some
of whose recent operations have been alluded to
in the Banner heretofore, was tried before JUS
tice Wilkinson yesterday, and committed to
Jail, in default of bond, to answer two separate
charges of obtaining money under false pre-
tense-NaShUjUe Banner.
He attempted his dodge Of victimizing min
ister in Nashville, that is by borrowing a small
sum and returning it, he would be enabled TO
borrow larger one but failed in this instance
as signally as he did with the Rev. E. 4. Hoss,
in this city. McAffrey is shrewd, but is too
fond of the confidence game to settle down to
work unless within four walls

We still report dull markets in all lines Of
trade. The prospect for good crops of corn and
cotton is very fattering, hence we anticipate a
lively.trade in the fall. We hear of sales Of some
prime white wheat at $3.50; these are outside
prices for first class article. Corn is dull with
heavy stock in hand. Our markets for light
produce are active and good stock commands
ready sale at good prices. The market is bare
of butter; prices have advanced to 22a2Sc for
fair grades. Eggs are dull, only strictly fresh
finding sale at quoted prices. Watermelons are
arriving by the car load, selling at 23a30c

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. July 16, 1872
| But little wheat was sold during the pas
| week. The sudden decline in prices democrat
ICES the trade for the present. All mill order!
are withdrawn, awaiting an adjustment OF
prices. The opinion now prevails that the
market will reopen at $1.10 for prime White.
and $1.0O for Red. Before the close of the pres
ent week we expect to witness Il brisk market
on the basis of the above quotations. Several
car loads OF Oats engaged at prices correspond
ing to 33c. in depot at Knoxville, the purchaser
furnishing the sacks.
There is nothing doing in Corn or Flour, ex-
cept to supply the local trade at prices of last
week.
Bacon and Lard sell readily at former quota
tions for local supply.
No demand for hay except for local wants.
The crop is short, but good. If pro-
ducers and shippers will combine interests in
this department and offer nothing but prime
article, we can soon make this an important ar
ticle Of export.

The. Campaign Opened-Speeches by Judge
HOuk and Alfred Caldwell Esq.

SEvIERvILLE, Tenn, July 16, 1872
This is an unusual week of interest in our lit
tie village. This being the week for Circuit
Court, quite number of people have been in
attendance. The court was opened at the usual
hour yesterday morning by his Honor, Judge
Randolph At the adjournment of court it was
announced Oy the Sheriff that public speaking
was then in order, and Judge Owens knowing
that the electors were expected to speak, mount
ed the stand and took possession and would not
consent TO give way, and well he should stand,
for if he runs as well for Congress as he did for
Circuit Judge two years past, he will need good
stand, for as well as my mind serves me he got
one vote in the county.
Judge Houk and Mr.. Caldwell then repaired
to the church, where large crowd of people
gathered. Houk made the opening speech, and
it being the first in the canvass he did himself
great credit. He occupied two hours and was
often cheered by his audience for the manner
in which he described Mr.. Greeley's course from
the beginning of the war and what he has said
and and about the rebellion, and what hard
things he said of rebels, and yet they, some of
them, are willing to swallow him head and tail
but all the true Republicans are for Grant still,
and large portions of the fighting rebels are
for him because they love brave man and
man that would show his hand during the re-
bellion.
Mr.. Caldwell in his reply did the best he
could, but he thought good portion of the
time that he was addressing gentlemen of the
jury He often repeated, Gentlemen Of the
jury" He is good lawyer, but will not do
for politician to compete with Judge Houk
The Democratic party will have to get another
speaker, for Mr.. Caldwell is too honest man
to fill the place. He does not love to have to
stOop so low as man in his place is necessarily
compelled to do. Houk rode all over him and
his party and finally Caldwell left before
either got through. SAM.
