THE TRIO AT GAINEsBoRoUGH.

GAINEsBoRoUGH, TENN, Oct. IL, ~.
EDIToRs CHRONICLE: To-day the three
candidates for Congress, Col. A. Caldwell,
Col. A. f. Garrett and Col. Thornburgh,
addressed large and respectable audience
at this place The discussion was opened
by Col Garrett. then followed Col. n.
Caldwell, and was closed by Col. Thorn
burgh who made. a lasting impression on
a great number of thej people, by the
manly and dignifed manner in which he
conducted the debate.
Before the discussion, the people OF this
community were much divided upon the
two opponents but since the little giant
LAS the people call HIM made his speech,
/ have observed a decided change. He
met the combined vituperation and SANDER
of his two competitors, with zeal and
determination that done honor to him as
man and to the cause he espouses. He
deeply impressed the people that he was
their friend, and that he would endeavor
to promote the interest of the working
man. He was listened to with marked
attention. and was often forced to stop TILL
the cheering and sensation he produced in
the audience would die away. Every
charge brought against him and the
administration was met with prompt ness,
and was successfully refuted. he re-
minds me of q story, that i have some
where read, of Hercules-that when he
was attacked by two huge serpents, while
in his cradle, he rose in the might and
power of his strength and vanquished
them both. Just so with Col. Thorn
burgh. He agreeably surprised many OF
the citizens of this place, by the ability he
displayed, and the manner in which he
disposed of his opponents. He handled
them without gloves, while every word
and sentence of his address had telling
effect. Many, without regard to politics
or party affiliations. are his profound
man combining in himself all those
qualities that characterize the patriot and
philanthropist. His highest ambition is
the good of his country and the welfare o
mankind. After speaking As minutes, the
time agreed upon by his opponents, with
out a reply, he sit down amidst gnea
applause.

THE WORKINGMEN'S CHAMPION.
FROM NEAR THE FATHER OF WATERS.
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..


From our special correspondent)
LAFAYETTE, Tenn Oct. 16, 1872.
In company with the Congressional cam
didates, Messrs. Thornburgh, Caldwell,
and Garrett, / left Carthage yesterday
morning and arrived here in the after
noon. To-day they held a joint discuss
sion to rather small audience, not more
than twenty-five persons. Republicans
had not generally understood that Colonel
Thornburgh was candidate, and thought
the fight was between two Democrats.
With this view of the case they did
not propose to take much stock
CONSEQUENTLY very few of them were
present. The discussion was opened by
Col. Garrett, who made new points, but
reiterated his charges against the unfair
ness of the late Sparta Convention. He
again read Col. Williams letter to show
that Caldwell had obtained his nomina-
ton through fraud, trickery and consplra-
CIV. The substance of the letter is, that
Col. w. claims that 81 delegates from one
ofthe counties, Anderson perhaps, were in
structed for him. Caldwell came TO
him and asked if he would al
low him to take these 81 votes and ex-
pertinent with them, promising that IN
case a certain contingency arose, that he
would Withdraw and put him (Williams)
| in nomination. He states that Caldwell
seemed very anxious to experiment upon
| his capital, but tnat ne Ialleu 10 heep LIS
promise.
Caldwell followed in speech of As min
utes, saying nothing he had not said be-
fore, except that he would remove the tar
if from pig iron.
Thornburgh closed in a forcible
vigorous speech of the same length
which could not fail to carry conviction to
the minds of his hearers. Here as else
where, we heard men say, who do not IN,
| tand to vote for him that he he is too HARD
for his opponents on the stump. He drives
right to the point, making himself felt In
cherry contest. Macon county, from where
l write, has very large Republican eie
ment. Col. Thornburgh's friends claim
that he will carry the county. Democrats
claim that they will carry it by two hun.
dred votes. 1t is certainly very close, and
with the fine impression made by MI
speech to-day, there is a fair probability o
Thornburgh carrying it by small major
ity Tomorrow we go again to Smitf
county from where 1 will write wR.

TENNESSEE NEWS.

Quite a goodly number of emigrants from
Georgia have passed through Chattanooga
within week, en- route for Arkansas, Kan
sas, Texas and other points west.
w. Clinton murdered his wife in Mem
phis on the 1st inst. by stabbing and kick
ing her. They had been drinking and
qusrelling the evening OF the murder.
Clinton was arrested.
Only three hundred and twenty-eight
persons were buried in the cemeteries at
Knoxville during the three years Of 1868,
1869 and 1870, and that too out of a popu-
lation of about 5000.
The Chattanooga Times learns from sew
eral of the most intelligent farmers of Ham
ilton county that the prospects for SPLEEN
did fruit crop were never better than now.
With no more frost, we may reasonably ex-
pect the finest peach crop we have had for
years. Wheat and oats look we'll
There are at present 108 prisoners con-
fined In Shelby county Jail. OF this num-
Der ten are charged with murder; five, as
sault with intent to kill; thirty-eight, grand
larceny; nine, petit larceny, and eight, lar
ceny from the person; four, horse stealing,
aud the remainder for house breaking,
burglary, perjury, misdemeanor, etc.
Lewis c. Cox, of Anderson county, has
been arrested for trying to sell forged note
for g, 500 on VIM. Gallaher, of Knox coun-
tv. Cox was formerly Circuit Court Clerk
of Anderson county, and his sureties had
to pay considerable amount for his failure
to account for monies which came into his
hands in his official capacity.
The Knoxville Chronicle learns from
farmers in different parts Of Knox county,
and throughout East Tennessee, that the
prospect for large yield of wheat is fine
indeed. 1t looks extremely well and bids
fair to be far in excess of an average good
crop. A larger area was planted than usual,
so that the coming year is likely to prove
as plenteous as the present has been short.
The Chattanooga Times says brakeman
named George Il. Hendrick met his death
on freight train on the Western and At
lantic Railroad, at the first bridge over
Ch;ckamauga Creek, on the I'd inst. He
was attempting to ascend the ladder on
the caboose, when he was struck by the
bridge. His brains were dashed out, his
right arm terribly lacerated, and bis cloth

tree 10 an orchard, which would not be
mixture Of several sorts.
But there is plan by which all the choice
varieties of fruits may be certainly perpetu-
ated and prevented FROM drumming out"
The process is simple, and may be put into
practice by any careful nuFserynan or
farmer; and the season of the year is near at
hand when it may be done. | will illustrate
it. Procure several wide mouthed bottles
Of perfectly transparent glass. When the
fruit trees are about to bloom, and just
before the flowers begin to bloom, select a
limb on the south side of the tree, in open
sunshine. Gently push the limb, full OF
fruit buds, into the bottle. Plant pole
and tie the bottle to the pole, with its
mouth downward, and including the
limb. Then wrap strip of brown paper
around the neck of the bottle and let it ex-
tend downward six or eight inches. Tie it
around the neck, leaving it open at the
bottom. This will admit air into the bot
tie, and exclude the pollen from neighbor-
ing trees, and thus prevent crossing. Let
the bottles remain, until you see the young
fruit fully formed on the limbs included in
them, then take them gently and cautiously
off, so as not to rub or injure the young
fruit. The fruit will then be produced by
the pollen of the blooms included within
the bottles, and of course the seeds OF the
fruit will be the progeny of that tree
alone; and if planted and cultivated,
they viii produce fruit exactly like that
of the parent tree. And the young
seeding trees will be young indeed,
organized to live and bear to as great an age
as the parent has done. And their fruits
will have all the qualities and habits of
those of the parent tree. From these new
trees, gratis may be cut and inserted into
seeding stocks, and thus multiplied to any
extent desired.
The committee in conclusion announce
that they win take the lead in this matter
and invite others to experiment in the same
line. They think it 50 plausible, SO natu-
raj and so reasonable that it deserves a
good trial from persons interested in per-
petuating the choice varieties of fruit.

MANAGEMENT OF CHILDREN

There can, think, be no greater disaster
in the home, 10 greater mistake in the at
tempt TO manage family, than the failure
of the two parents to make their authority
absolutely one. The household in which,
for any reason or from any cause, conflict
of authority exists, is the saddest Of sights
to one who wishes well to children. There
should be earnest conference between pa
rents concerning the best methods and OBJ
iec;s: there should be perfect unanimity in
the general system of management adopted
bv them. 1t is unspeakably better to make
some mistakes in unison, than to let the
minds of children get confused as to whom
they shall obey. Let the father and moth
or sneak with one voice. if they wish the
yoics ofeither to be respected. Appeals from
one to the other should never be permitted.
Where this is allowed, Indebtedness OF
many kinds ensues, and management gives
place to mismanagement-J Z. ABBOTT

for their benefit viii give you an incident
that occurred in our vicinity. On the 18th
inst, my neighbor, Mr.. n. w. Springer,
living on Duck River, at the mouth of
Beaver Dam Greek, sent for me TO come
over to see a sick COW. On arriving, found
the cow was unable to ealve. She had been
down for some time, unable to get up. l
tried to give her relief, but to no effect. 1
then took my pocket-knife and cut an incis-
ion in the left side, just in front and little
below the hip bone, about nine inches long;
then another across the first, forming an X,
through which took out the calf alive. 1
then seWed up the missions. The COW and
