PLOw FACTORY-We have been
told that Turnkey, Ely& Co. have taken
an interest of fifteen thousand dollars
in the PlOw Factory of McReynolds q
Son, and that houseis to be erected on
the river front, near the Elephant Ware
house in which the operations can be
enlarged to ten thousand plows per an
mum. We hope the farmers will man
ifest their public spirit by patronizing
literally this home institution. The
McReynolds plows are equal to the
best in the market, and the perfect re-
liability of the firm should offer an ad-
ditional inducement to the surround
ing country to give them a generous
encouragement. A home market is
the best for every class of citizens,
and if the country abOunds in institu-
tons of this sort, the farmer can find
ready sale for his. surplus products, and
especially for those which will not bear
the cost of freight to distant points
Buy your plows here and you
have a fair chance to get your money
back, in payment for your farm pro-
ducts; and thus currency is kept cir
culating about home, which is not the
case when it is sent abroad for articles
that are as well, and as cheaply made
here. This is the wisest lesson taught
by political economists, and the easiest
learned by those who possess ordinary
intelligence and public spirit. We
wish this establishment all the success
we know it will merit.

The Cooperative Meeting of Chris
tian Churches convened in this city on
Thursday evening of last week, in the
Christian Church, and were addressed
by Elder G. NJ. Day, on the subject OF
emissions.
Friday, Saturday and Monday fore
noon were devoted to the transaction
of business. Messengers from over
twenty churches were present. Among
the visiting preachers were Elders Fan
ming, Lipscomb, Phillip and James
Fall, D. p. Miller, johnson, Day, Du-
lin, Crenshaw. Hester, Taylor, and
Bailey.
Elder A. T. Johnston, the Evange-
list during the past year, was engaged
to continue his labors in the same
field. One or two more Evangelists
will probably be selected to assist
him in his work.
Elder ID. Lipscomb preached on
Monday evening, up to which time four
accessions had been made to the
church.

We learn from our Erin correspond.
ent that a robbery had been commit.
ted at the store of Lockhart & Thorn.
as, in that place, on the night of the
9th ult.. and a number of valuable
articles taken therefrom. Luckily nc
money had been left in the store. The
rObber or robbers also took an overcoat
belonging to Mr.. Graham. which had
been left in new building near by
Most of the stolen articles were found
at bridge about a mile north of the
town, next morning, by Mr.. Carr, SUI
perintendent of bridges on the Clarks-
vile Division. This is the first rob,
berry ever known in Erin. No clue to
the robbers.
Great fears are entertained by the
farmers of that vicinity that the wheat
and early corn were seriously injured
by the late frost, and the peach crop is
thought to be totally ruined. The far
mers in that valley had their crops in
a very forward state, and will lose
heavily by this frost.

PEfRIFAcTIoNs. = Our esteemed
friend Mr.. Daniel Mills ESQ.,, has
presented the CHRONICLE Office with a
portion of an old piece of timber,
which having accidentally been sub
jected to the influence of the water
drippings from old iron-ore has as
sumed the charater of this mineral.
A section of the wood remains only
partially petrifed in the abnormal
mineral, its exterior being coated with
oxide ofiron. The specimen was found
at the old Washington furnace in this
county.
Our well known citizen A. w. FL
ger Esq, has presented us with two
specimens of petriied hickory nut
and walnut shells So perfect is the
petrifcation that the grooves of the
shells or hulls remain complete as
when they were in their material vege-
table state. How strange arethe won.
ders of nature yet at all times the
impress of great God is stamped upon
the strangest freaks and displayed by
the most erratic suspensions of her
laws.

TO OUR PATRONS.

As will be seen by an advertisement
elsewhere, we have purchased Mr.. j.
Baldwin S interest in the CHRONICLE,
the style of firm dating from Feb.
10Th, 1873, will be Neblett x Grant.
Having assumed all liabilities We are
alone authorized to receive any and all
accounts due the late firm. This
change compels us to call earnestly
upon all indebted to us to come for
ward and make payment. We have
been indulgent with many for long
time, to our detriment, and we indulge
the hope that they will liquidate their
Indebtedness and enable us to prose-
cute our business with renewed
vigor. We hope our friends will assist
us in getting up an increased circula-
ton, thereby enabling US to furnish
them a paper eminently worthy in
every respect.

THE GRAND cOMMAsDERY.
Convecation Of Knights Templar In
this City, May 18th.

The city of GAINESVILLE, noted for
its hospitality. will be called upon to
entertain over three hundred Knights
Templar Tuesday, May 18th, the oc-
casion being the eonyocation of the
Grand Commandery of the State of
Tennessee. In former article the
CHRONICLE has alludedst some length
to the social importance and masonic
significance of this meetin>and feel
assured our citizens will be lavish in
the entertainment of the many distin-
guished members of the order that
will be present, The moral type of
masonry, its high mission and its proud
trismphs Of. humap philanthropy, have
rendered its higher honors accessible
only tothe worthiest gentlemen Hence
the occasion converting the delegates
and Sir Knights of various command
cries in GAINESVILLE, is both compli-
ment to our city and no trivial recog-
milton of the worth, intelligence and
kindly culture of its citizens. In view
Of these facts, it becomes our people
to exhibit that excellent hospitality
and bestow that polite attention which,
being characteristic of this city, have
long years ago assigned GAINESVILLE an
enviable position among the many ur-
bane communities OF the State of
Tennessee. Social intercourse cult
Yates the feelings, and when conducted
under such favorable auspices as this
occasion ensures, is conducive of much
benefit, not alone to those who par
take of our hospitality, but also to our
citizens who bestOw attentions COM
mensurate with the character of the
gentlemanly guests. Social ties so
pleasantly formed, will be substanti-
ally preserved, delightfully."- r0mem-
bered, and, in the future, future,
may be renewed with no insincere
kindness. Social comminglings cult
vate the feelings, expand the heart,
and elevate us in the scale of good
ness far more desirably than one
would imagine, unless it be he who
has studied thoughtfully the onward
progress of civilized communities.
In addition to the full dress parade,
the exercises usual with this body, the
GAINESVILLE Commandery will tender
the visiting Knights sumptuous ban
quet the evening of the 18th inst, af-
ter which grand ball will be given
in Franklin Hall. We understand
that quite a number of ladies from
neighboring cities will be present, and
our own fair ones will lend presence
of loneliness and grace to the even
ing s entertainment, which will be con-
Quoted with marked dignity and
princely enjoyment.
Preparations are already being made
to receive and entertain the visiting
knights, and we doubt not but tina.
their sojourn here will be one of much
genial enjoyment and elegant pleasure.
Tuesday, May 13ths will be a gala day
for GAINESVILLE, and many persons from
