Obituary Notice.

Died, in Knoxville, on the 10th inst, u. By
ron Champion, aged 20 years.
The announcement of the death of this young
man fell quite unexpectedly upon this commu-
nitv. When he left Knoxville for Selma, some
six monts since it was in the flush of youthful
thought and the sensation was marked when, it
was announced that he had died at his father S
here in Knoxville. lie returned from Selma
with the germ of pernicious fever, that advanc-
ed insidiOusly, until after brief confinement
of eight days to his bed, he sank beneath it. Al
though doubtless, Byron had his failings and err
fors, as others have, there was much in his char
cterthatwas generous and attractive, and his lat
est days especially, prior to his DEATH were mark
ed by serious thought and religious contempla-
ton. His mind in many respects was naturally
more mature than his years. The cares and re-
sponsibilites that devClved upon him, the ell
der son. during his fathers absence in the
army. developed his natural powers and matur-
cd his Judgment. He had warm, affectionate
nature that drove him to his family and friends
in close communion. To his friends he was true
as steel. From the beginning of his sickness he
seemed to be apprehensive of his coming change
and was seen to be frequently engaged IN acts
of devotion,
But few hours before his death, in the inter,
val of delerium he burst forth in q connected
and earnest prayer, invoking the presence ana
aid of the Divine Spirit in behalf of himself and
the whole household then relapsed into uncon-
ciousness and soon passed away, without a
struggle.
His memory will be cherished by those who
knew him best-who knew and loved hlm Tor
all that was noble and generous in his nature
and his life; for the truthfulness of his friend
ship, and the sincerity and warmth OF his affec-
tionS.

Legality of Direct Tan snI,s.

In the Memphis AraLanche of recent date
we find the following
1T is stated that shortly before the adjourn
ment of the United States Circuit Court IN June,
Judge Trigg received and read in court. some
memoranda from Judg Emmons, indicating his
decision in the cases involving the legality OF
the sale of property under the United States
direct tax law He decides that such sales were
legal, which virtually settles the matter regard
less of what may be the decision of the State
Supreme Court, where several cases of the same
nature are now pending, unless an appeal Is
taken to the Supreme Court of the United
States. The decision of the Circuit Court as il
now stands will destroy the hopes of many per
sons in this section whose lands were sold under
the direct tax law

Pants Stolen.

On Yesterday, one of the cadets at the Uni.
versity, Capt Sam. Crawford, thought he would
show his friends what he knew about farm
ing" and vary the monotony Of vacation by as
sisting in gathering the Oat crop on his farm.
Sam. had on his rcgimental pants. but not
wishing to spoil them, they were carefully laid
aside in a fence corner and he donned a pair OF
ventilators in which to labor. After hard
davis work he went to exchange trousers, when
he discovered that his nice gray pants had been
stolen. "Phancy his pheelinks! Sam. came
home not exactly in ball room costume and had
TO make considerable change in his toilet before
he considered himself presentable at the Pyth-
ian fandango. Fence corners as wardrobeS are
not success, as every furniture dealer will tell

s. SaINe POrcum.,,

This seems to be the motto of our city author
tiles. and. what is more, they stick to it. Now
we admire their pluck, but are constitutionally
opposed to their principles. We have labored
hsrl to bring ID perfection a garden of choice
vegetables. We have gotten up from our bed
many morning before the glowing sun had
begun TO brighten the Eastern horizon, and, In
our shirt sleeves, manfully piled the spade and
hoe in order to get the ground in condition to
bring forth abundantly.
We planted our potatoes, corn, cabbage,
beans beets and all the choice vegetables that
we so love to grace our table. Nor, 1T seemed,
was our labor to 60 unrewarded, tor inner
promise of an abundant yield we never saw.
The waving corn stood some eight or ten feet IN
the air; the cabbage were in fourlshlng con-
dtion; the tomatoes, that lucions fruit tit for the
immortal gods, bid fair to rival those far-famed
spples of the Hesperides, while that patch OF
squashes, the pride and joy of our horticultural
heart, gave promise of being all that we
could wish. Bat alas! for human expectations.
In one short night the fell destroyer, in the
shape of some three or four swine, came and
DESTROYED the work or three long months, with
ont taking into consideration the amount of
trouble and anxiety we had spent on our gar
den. The next morning we went out to water
some plants, when, to our utter amazement we
saw that the greater part of our corn was pros
trated on the ground, our potatoes were uproot-
ed. tomato vines torn up and lying all over the
ground Our squashes were almost all destroy
ed by these fends in the shape of swine, and a
scene of devastation and ruin met our eye
which caused our heart to stand
still, our pulse to cease to beat and general
feeling of looseness to pervade our frame.
arise We citizens, and glut your ire -
Be We men, that We suffer these wrongs, or be
We slaves that you quietly submit to such tia-
grant violation of the privileges of private cti-
aenship We call upon al, within whose breast
there burns single spark of independence, to
arise, and by nobly opposing this army of in
yadsrs, exterminate the race of swine.

Points of Excellence Required in Fam
lily Sewing Machine.

TO meet the wants of every household fully
and perfectly, sewing machine must possess
certain qualities and capacities, some OF the
more important of which are the following:
It should be very simple in its construction, so
that it will not be liable to get out of ORDER either
by use or standing idle.
It should be we'll made so that it will run with
precision, and be durable. :,
1t should be so quiet III operation that 1t VIII
not offend the most delicate nerves.
IL should be so light running that every
member of the household, who is old enough
to understand how TO use it, shall be able to
work it.
Itshould be so easily understood and managed
that every one can use It,
1t should be certain in operation, never miss
ing stitch.
It should not be liable to break the thread in
the act of sewing.
Il should be able to use every kind and de.
scription of cotton, silk or linen thread with ia
cility.
one work to another. as 4.
Its table should be so constructed and ar
ranged that the operators dress will not be
soied with oil or come in contact with the
Wheel
1t should be capable drumming with ease and
facility as fast as the most skilllul operator can
handle the work.
1t should be provided with an automatic
break, to prevent the pach acIioh VI INC "H00i
on starting
Its needle should be straight and short, u
so that it be not liable to get bent or broken.
Its s'Tension' should not be compound-but
simple, easily managed and reliable,
AThe stitch should be ''even, plump and beau
as heavy strain crosswise as the fabric.
Its stitch should be elastic as the most elastic
fabric so that it will endure as heavy strain
lengthwise as the goods
It's seam should be automatically fastened by
the machine on the work being taken out
Its stitch should be so constructed that the
seam can be easily taken out when desired; yet
it should not be liable to rip or ravel by itself.
A family sewing machine should be capable
of doing, even by unskillful hands, every kind of
sewing required to be done for the household
All the above points of excellence can be
found in the Wilcox s. Gibbs Improved Sew
ing Machine at No. &c Gay street. Knoxville
and few if any in any other machine.
