TrOchu on Army EnIistments-The Treaty
of Washington.

PARIS, June 7.-Trochu, speaking on
the Army bill, suggested three instead OF
five years service, and but two years for
faithful soldiers. CHEERS
Havana and Mexican advices state that
the Government announces that it has no
consuls in France. The acts of persons
assuming to perform consular functions
are null.
LONDON, June 6.-In the House of Lords
tonight Earl Derby read letter from Sir
Stafford Northcote, correcting the state
ment made by the former in his speech on
Monday, to the effect that there was no
understanding between members of the
Joint High Commission that indirect
claims were not to be presented, and that
the Commissioners were therefore careless
in drawing up the treaty.
Sir Stafford NOrthcote declares positive
ly that the commissioners did understand
that the promise was given that the claims
for Indirect damages could be withdrawn
Granville also read a letter from Mr.
Schenck. an American Minister, affirming
the supplemental article, which is amply
sufficient to exclude indirect claims and
authorizing a statement to be made, as
coming from Washington, that the article
is final settlement of the question Of said
claims. The announcement was received
with cheers. Earl Derby said this would put
a new face on matters, and he thought the
debate ought to stop. Cheers.
Earl Granville warned the House that in
direct claims had not been withdrawn from
the American case, but that they would be
disposed of by acceptance ofthe supplement
tai article to the treaty of Washington. Mr..
Russell then withdrew his motion for an
address to the Queen and the debate closed.

cambridge Items.

The monOtonOus quiet Of our little town was
somewhat disturbed this morning by a sharp
little fight between two Of our sherif'S board
ers at the county hotel. They were occupying
with two others, nice cage which our sheriff
had fixed up for their especial acCOmmOda-
ton. They had dispute about some trivial
matter, and after passing some hard cOmpli-
ments concerning their birth and beauty went
for each other dog fashion, the best man on
top at least half the time. After making II
young slaughter pen out of their cage and
cutting and bruising each other to their own
satisfaction they recommended their discus
sion, when the sheriff. Mr. VIM. Walker, and
his deputy, Mr.. Andrew Webb, arrived and
politely requested the young men to take up
their quarters in separate cages All quiet at
last accounts.
The cambridge Swimming Club organized
sometime ago, with Ben. G. Owen as Presi-
dent of the awkward squad. The club meets
at the river each evening, at five o'clock, with
n good attendance of the members. Any one
knowing of the whereabouts of Ben, will
please tell him to come home and take charge
of his squad.
Our streets were enlivened for a day or two
with the smiling cOuntenanCes of Tom Oldham
and Joe Atkins, on Il prospecting tour among
our merchants. May they come again, and
their shadow never be less
Ed. r. Hall, our Deputy County Court Clerk,
has on exhibition (free) for few days only, the
marriage bond OF David Crockett, with the
genuine signature of Davy 1t will be framed
in a few days and presented to the State Library
at Nashville.
Candidates for Sheriff are as thick as black
berries. New ones Matching out every day or
so. If any Of them wish to be elected, they
had better announce their name in the CHRoN-
ICLE, as the people read that paper here.
The Star Base Ball Club, of Dandridge, had
a game yesterday and another this evening

Another Cotton FnternriSe.

Adolph Hunerwadel, Major of the
| Swiss Staff and a son Of one of the lead
! ing cotton manufacturers of Switzerland,
| is on visit to his cousin, Gen. TheO-
| dOle Trauernicht, of the city. Mr.. HUI
nerwadel is eOnverSant with all branches
! of the cotton business, and has visited the
United States several times for the pur-
pose of looking into our home manufactO-
riCs. His visit to our city will be about
two months, and during which time Mr..
HurnerWadel will see what advantages
there may be for the location, on a mag
nificent scale, of cotton factory here
We trust he may find inducements favor
able to his scheme, which, if accom-
plished, will add much to the already
enterprising growth of Nashville. We
feel satisfied that large cotton factory,
employing hundreds of Swiss hands, would
be a profitable investment if located in our
city. The climate, commercial cOnnec-
tiOns and location are all as good as can be
offered by any other city, while an eligi-
BILE site for buildings of any dimensions
can be purchased much cheaper than in
most any other city possessing the advan-
tages claimed by Nashville. Our business
men, those imbued with the spirit of pro-
gress, and who wish to develop our wealth
and growth as a great and leading city
should confer with Mr.. Hunerwadel con-
cerning his plans. Mr.. Hunerwadel has
visited Knoxville Chattanooga and other
cities, making a careful examination of
each so far as they would suit the require
ments of locating a cotton factory Union

followed q lecture by the Rev. Mr.. Huffaker,
and a few appropriate remarks by Rev. i. Bo-

Then the chief marshal, Mr.. W G. Murphy,
assisted by Mr. j. w. Andes, marched the as

paration was made for all, prepared by the la

We assure you, if we will all put our shoulders
to the wheel, we will make it success.
The people are wonderfully built up with the

The Picnic at PhiIadeIphia.

EDITORS CHRONICLE: As you were pleased
to make note Of the fact that there was to be a
picnic at Philadelphia, perhaps you would like
to know how it passed off; so ! send you few
hasty notes from the scene of action,
Precisely at the appointed hour, the Baptist
Sunday School, numbering nearly one hundred,
moved off in procession from the Baptist Church
to the grove, distant about one mile from town
The other schools, five in number, did not
march. but were pretty we'll represented on the
ground. 1t was estimated that there were not
much less than Il thousand persons present.
The dinner was truly a Sumptuous one, would
have served for twice the number of people
After dinner DR.. Breaker delivered deeply in
teresting address to the congregation seated on
the grass. The balance of the day was spent in
various sports, and as the sun went down be-
hind the Western hills the last Of the party re-
turned to their homes.
Every one pronounced the picnic perfect
success 1t was certainly the grandest affair Of
the kind ever had here. We are delighted with
Dr. Breaker, and with the picnic, and in good
humor generally. a.

MOTrIstOwn Notes.

Morristown, one of the largest and most i'm
portant towns OH the line from Knoxville to
Bristol, is slightly dull just now. Trade, al
though fair for this season, can not be said to
be brisk, farmers being busily engaged with
their crops And, by the way, the agricultur-
lists of Hamblen county are behind those of no
other section of East Tennessee as regards en-
terprise and progression. Large numbers of
mowers and other implements are fast super
seding the old mode, and increased activity and
larger returns is the result. Crops are remark
ably fine, and appearances indicate an abundant
harvest. Considerable grass is grown in the
surrounding country, and l understand guam
tity of hay will be baled and shipped from this
point this season.
If Mr.. Charlton would only come and tell us
what he knows about farming" (or the Con-
gressional race either I am sure he would be
appreciated by the intelligent husbandmen he
would meet. r. E-
Last week the depot at this place was entered
and robbed, and to-day breastpin was found
in the possession Of a negro girl and identified
as one of the missing articles. She says it was
given her by negro named Henry Rice. a
warrant was procured and Sheriff Boyd, has
gone into the country to secure it. Particulars
next time, if there are further developments.

cbarly, that the farmers Of East Tennessee

dice in q condition that will not compare ia
vGably with the same class of productions from
otler sections of country. The limits of this
article will allow us to notice one only.
WHEAT.
We will suppose q commission merchant
buys crop of 1000 bushels of prime white
wheat deliverable first of July, for which he is
to pay 81 30 per bushel the farmer, true to his
engagement brings up the wheat, full, plump
grain, clean and free from all foreign matter, the
translation is satisfactorially closed and the
wheat shipped forward and sold in some of the
Eastern markets, leaving q fair profit to the
shipper, complimentary letters accompany the
return1 and strong solicitations for further con-
sigrhi1nts. This transaction fixes the market,
and now the excitement is up, d dozen purchas-
ers enter the market the farmers anxious las
they Should be) to realize the high prices of the
early market forget them in order TO realize
a full price. They must not only offer
good but clean wheat, or if they do succeed
taking advantage of the excitement, in selling
One-half of their inferior poorly cleaned wheat
at fair prices. the purchases having to submit
to reclamation will certainly not buy the re-
naming half of the crop ualess 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-
quiring each sack to be sampled, &C., and we
state this a fact. that in several Instances we
have known cargoes ofwheat rejected by millers
and thrown back on the hands of commission
merchants because only few sacks, the tail
ings ofthe crop, faulty wheat with cheat and
cookie were found in the lot, and on a declin-
ing market such wheat once rejected can be
sold only on the sample of the poor trashy
wheat.
1t would have. been money saved to have
thrown the faulty, trashy wheat to the hogs,
rather than discredit the whole trying to save a
few bushels. Farmers and traders, work to-
gether to avoid the errors of the past and let
our wheat be put on the market in good cond-
tion, and you will find good demand at full
prices, from Eastern rs we'll as Southern mill
ers, for all our surplus.
