CHRONICLE AND

We will send the CHRONICLE and RURAL
Sun to new subscribers for $50 to be paid
Invariably in advance. The regular rates
for the RURAL Sun to single subscribers is
$3.50, and for the CHRONICLE, s 200 hence it
win be seen that by taking the two papers
together from Us new subscribers save 81
each.
The RURAL Sun is one of the ablest and
most interesting agricultural papers pub
lished in the United States. Its editors and
publishers are gentlemen of high charac-
ter, strict integrity, and great ability in their
several departments. They have always
been successful in whatever enterprises
they have undertaken.
We purpose TO make the CHRONICLE
every way worthy of extensive patronage
and liberal support. Having largely in
creased our capital stock, and purchased
the best material and machinery for the
mechanical department, and having secur-
ed the services of the best talent in the edi-
torial management, we feel confident that
our hopes ofsuccess rest upon a sure founda-
ton. Correct and beautiful typography,
with able, energetic and cultivated editing,
ought TO give a character of considerable
distinction to any paper. We expect to find
a large number who viii properly appre-
ciate our efforts, and take advantage of the
opportunity, which the above named terms
present to them, ofsupplying their families
at once with two valuable weekly papers.
We are sure that none who do so will ever
regret it. The CHRONICLE and RURAL SUN
together at $3.50 viii prove a most profitable
investment.

THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE.


However the question of who is to
be editor of the New York Tribune
may be settled, one thing is certain, it
will never, under the editorial control
of any man, have that unbounded in
fuence which hitherto it has welded
over the public mind In America, when
it was the embodiment CT Greeley's
genius. The elder Bennett passed
away, but not until his son had caught
his spirit and learned his plans and
purposes. The mantle of the founder
Of the Herald was not merely taken up
by the son, after the fathers death, but
even while living, the father had hon.
ored his successor with a seat by his
side on the editorial throne which he
had established. Greeley left king
dom in the Tribune which he had
founded, but he left no heir apparent.
And whoever may undertake the work
of editing the Tribune will find it a
work of great difficulty. Mr.. Gree
ley's name had a magical power over
the millions who read his paper. The
story Of his triumph over poverty and
discouragements, the fact that he was
a self-made man, caused the people
to regard him as one speaking with
authority.

II. & L. C. ENTERTAINMENTS.

The Hook and Ladder Company
have given three entertainments this
week. Tuesday night they played Ten
Nights in a Bar-room, with the farce
of Dead Shot, as an afterpiece. Tick
ct of Leave Man and Black Efiigy
constituted the bill of fare for We'd
nesday night. Thursday night Ten
Nights in a Bar-roOm was repeated
with Handy Andy as an atterplece.-
On account of the unfavorable wealth
err and wretched condition of our
streets at night, from lack Of street
lamps and decent payements which
makes it unpleasant and unsafe to go
out after dark, even in good weather,
the audience at each of the entertain
ments, was not large, averaging, for
the three evenings taken together,
about one hundred and seventy-fve
persons. The young gentlemen OF the
company acquitted themselves well.
Their efforts are received with enthu-
siasm by those in attendance. The
aggregate receipts amounted to $40.

GAINESVILLE TOBACCO MARKET.

AS the weather is now suitable for hand
ling tobacco, we may expect at an early
day, largely increased sales and an active
market. We notice the arrival of two for
eign buyers during the past week, who ad-
ded to those already here, make our board
unusually large. This intermixture of
foreign buyers, we like to see. Where
there are but few bidders, and they init
mate, and in daily intercourse, it is an easy
matter to form rings and keep down prices;
but if the board is full and is composed of
men who are strangers to each other, there
is no danger of such combinations; and
for this reason, it would be vastly TO the
interest of the planters, If the tobacco
known as 'Clarksville," could be concen-
trated and sold at one point If this could
be done, the buyers and orders would all
come together, and the number of bidders
be doubled on every hogshead.
We cannot blame the citizens of other
towns for trying to build up home mar
kets, it is to their interest to do SO, but
whilst they are promoting their own inter-
ests, they are certainly damaging the plan
tiers. GAINESVILLE is the Oldest and best es-
tablished market in the West, and is better
known in Europe than any other off the
seaboard. If the people will bear this in
mind and consult their interest, our sales
this season, will be largely increased.

RIVER NEWS.

The river is swelling slowly, the marks
at noon yesterday, indicating six feet of
water on Harpeth Shoals. We have had a
fine boating stage of water, for the past ten
days, but owing to the Ohio and Mississippi
rivers being closed with ice, our packets
have done but little, making irregular
trips as low down as Paduoah.
We have assurances that the Tyrone,
Lumsden and Gracey, will commence their
regular trips next week. They will be reg
ularIy advertised in our columns.
We intend to keep our readers fully post
ed in regard to the movements of steamers
The steamboat interest on Northumberland
River has suffered during the past two
years, a diminution of more than one
half, and unless our shippers and meIch-
ants will encourage the few steamboat
owners, who have the courage and tenacity
to hang on under the present adv erse cir
cumstances, we may surely count steam
boating in the Cumberland River, as "a
thing'of the past"
Capt. Owen Davis has purchased Rob-
ert Bells interest in the John Lumsden,
and viii command her during this season.
Heis as full of energy now, as when we
knew him in the days of aud lang syne."

cey, full share of the travelling and ship
ping from our city.
The Little Gender and barges. that have
been laying at the sand-)ank, above the

THE Independents and their tools
who elected, from Tennessee, seven
Radical TO three Democratic members
of Congress, are so satisfied with the
glorious and patriotic achievement,
that they seem disposed to enjoy their
victory, in self-satisfed retirement from
political turmoil. We don't hear of
one of them demanding of the Radi-
cal administration the reward due
their services to the Radical cause.
They certainly deserve credit for their
modesty, if not for their political wis
dom. Maynard ought to know what
their leaders want and not wait for
them to blush and then ask. 1t may
be, however, that Radicalism, as well
as Conservatism, distrusts the purity
of their motives, and is slow to reward
party treason, as a dangerous expert
ment-nothing having TRANSFERRED to
show whether the Independent lead
ers are Liberal Republicans, or mere
gueriilas from every party. They are
certainly candidates for crumbs from
some party table, which ever supplies
them, can fix their status, at least so
long as the crumbs last. We do not
suppose that the big Injun of the
tribe would be satisfied with a Post
masterhip, as he has had his measure
taken for a seat in the Senate to be
followed by a second Presidential
term-ap position he will find it difficult
to reach in the absence of a Booth.
