Drug Market.

Yearly Rerieto Of the EnorriAe Drug Market.
The drug trade for the past year we think
compares favorably with the preceding years.
The stringency of the money market which has
prevailed has of course been felt in the drug
trade as in all Others and tended to decided
decrease in business for the first five or six
months, but with the prospect and realization Of
bountiful crops the trade has steadily increased
during the last half of the year, and leaves
1872 with better promises than it entered it
twelve months ago. Prices on most leading ar
tcleS have been very firm, and have had ten
dency to advance. This was caused, at least in
part, by the exceedingly low prices which had
been reached in the previous year, and manu-
facturers were brought to the psint, whether
they should suspend operations or advance
prices. In some eases the advance was brought
about by monopolies; as, for instance, con-
centrated I've, which advanced 81 60 in one
day, in September, and has maintained the high
price then reached. Since. glass, lead, putty
and oils have been very firm, especially during
the latter part of the year. Chemicals have as
usual fuctuated considerably, but have as a
rule advanced. Some goods, such as gum
camphor, have declined, owing to reduction of
duty. Our merchants are feeling encouraged
by the fattering prospects of the year now
opening, and are confidently expecting -four

THE POLL.TAX RECEIPTS.
How tho Mayor Stands On the question

How tho Mayor Stands Ola the Question.
On Friday night, November 10Th, 1872,
at the meeting of the city Board, Alder
man Munson asked for information on the
question of poll-taX receipts. In the
CHRONICLE of Saturday, November 30th,
was this report of the proceedings:
THE POLL-TAX QUALIFICATION.
Mr.. Munson asked for information in regard
to the question of the payment of poll-tax,
whether it was necessary in order to a free eX-
ercise of the voting privilege.
The Mayor explained that in his opinion the
payment Of the tar was necessary, and gave his
views briefly on the subject.
Mr.. Henderson did not exactly see the mat
ter in that light.
Mr.. Munson having elected the information.
proceeded to read the constitutional provision"
&c.
That report of the Mayors position has
never been disputed. 1t has stood for oyer
a month as his views on this subject and
never been publicly contradicted. The
Mayor was correctly reported as several
Aldermen recollect. There is no mistake
about the Mayors position on this impor-
tant question.

Frequently when approaching some
merchants on the question of advertising
we are told that advertisements did no
good, in fact were not read at all. That
this is grand mistake has been repeated
ly demonstrated, and last Wednesday we
again noted the good effect of advertising.
We lost our knife on Monday, advertised
it on Tuesday, and on Wednesday gentle
man, who, we believe, is not even a resi-
dent of this city, brought it to the of
flee. So if you have lost anything you
wish to find, advertise in the CHRONICLE;
or if you have anything you wish to sell
the CHRONICLE is the best medium by
which to make it known to the public.
Try it and be convinced.

KEEPER d KOHLHASE.

Enterprise TriumpIis Over Every Obstacle.
About three years ago these two gentle
men came to this city and commenced the
manufacture of saddletrees. Having but
little capital they were forced to operate on
small scale at first, working no other
hands but themselves. Yet they were men
of enterprise, and boldly worked their wa
through, and soon they were enabled to
employ some help. Now the Knoxville
Saddletree Factory employs twenty-seven
hands regularly, and is on firm footing,
! receiving constant orders from all the
| principal cities of the South. Their work
| is of the best quality; and hence it is
eagerly sought after, SO much so that they
can not fill but half the orders they receive.
| Their principal orders come from Mem
phis and New Orleans, with occasional
| ones from Galveston, Texas. The Mem
| phis house has repeatedly written to them
| to let them know whenever they are pre-
pared to furnish them more trees, as they
are very anxious to increase their stand
ing orders. They now turn out six dozen
| saddletrees per day. for which they find a
ready market at from sol 20 S24 per dozen,
| making an average of about $3.50
| for every dozen they turn out. At
| this rate they ship about 1872 dozen
saddletrees year which brings
tueLu, al o. ~ per OOLeu, TIC average
price, So, 12O. Now this money is brought
from other cities here, and as Messrs.
Kemper & Kohlhase live in the city, as
| well as all the hands they employ, and as
all the material used is produced in this
| country, every dollar is expended among
us. They expect in less time than year
to enlarge their facilities to such an extent
as to enable them to turn out fully double
the present number, which would put the
neat sum of Ssh, 240 yearly in circulation
from that quarter alone. They commence
ed with but little encouragement from out
siders, and we doubt whether they could
have found any one willing to take stock
| in the concern. But now they could east
| ly find more than one willing to become a
partner. They have leased the Bosworth
mill, and put up some machinery in which
they prepare the wood and put the trees
together, when they are taken to the old
shop on the foot of Clinch street to be fin
| ished and covered. We are glad to see this
| establishment growing, and the Knoxville
saddletree factory gaining such q reputa-
ton abroad, for the propretOrs, by their
energetic and industrious habits, have rails
ed themselves high in the estimation of
our people, and certainly deserve to pros

Dry Goods.

Il J'carly Rerje,g Of tile Dry Goods Market.
The wholesale trade in dry goods during the
past year has been unusually brisk in fact, we
are informed, was heavier than at any previous
year since the close of the war, and, as for that
matter, any year prior to the war. The market
has also been unusually steady, there being no
notable change in the price of any Of the lead
ing articles during the past year. Wooden
goods, it is true, were rather stiff shortly after
the Boston fire, yet not sufficiently so to cause
an advance on leading articles. Country mer-
chants during the past year, have generally
purchased finer and costlier class of goods
than they have been accustomed to buy, proof
that the people generally are being awakened
to their interest in this matter.
The retail trade in dry goods has also
been very brisk during the past year.
1t is true that in the first half
of the year trade was rather dull, yet the fall
and winter trade has in manner made up for
this, and taking the receipts for the entire year
they are in advance of any in the history of
the Knoxville dry goods trade. There has not
beer any notable change in prices of leading ar
,ticles, with the exception Of slight advance on
brown and bleaehed cotton goods. Wooden
goods, in the retail trade, were rather stiff fer
season and continue to be so to some extent at
present., yet without any notable change in
prices. Carpeting has declined slightly, yet not
as much as had been anticipated, the Boston
fire causing stand still in that line of goods.
Taking it all together the past year has been a
very prosperous one in the dry goods trade, and
a heavy trade is anticipated for the coming year
should there be no providential interference

Thieying,

On Thursday night, Mr.. John Cava-
naugh, who resides in East Knoxville,
was aroused 10y the barking of his dog and
proving around the yard. He stepped up
to the fellow and catching hold of him
asked his business there at that hour of the
night? The scoundrel replied by drawing
a knife from his pocket with which he in
flicted several cuts on the neck and head
of Mr.. Cavanaugh, who feeling the blood
running freely released his hold, when the
rascal escaped. He thinks he recognized
the thief.
Two evenings since an adroit fellow OF
the light fingered gentry exGnguished the
residence and entering the hall appropri-
ated an overcoat, shawl and three hats
with which he escaped without detection.
