APaner Uifh a Head.

The Euphepoian and PGllsdidn Journal
is the title of new paper, the publication
of which has been commenced at Hender-
son, Tenn. 1t flies under the motto: Chew
to the line, let the chips fall where they
may" As an evidence that the brain work
of the concern is in keeping with the fam
ing title, we copy the very unique salutatory
done up in verse as follows:
As the Ephemian boys have cut up caper,
| must write a short poem concerning this pa
per.
The name of this paper will now first tell,
lis the Z. s. p. Journal which suits very well.
1 think 1t will be if nothing prevents
A paper worth about fifty cents,
And if that isn't cheap for a monthly journal
In the peach seed there is no kernel.
The part is edited by two school boys,
l will tell YOU their names-'tis Harris & DAVIS:
One of then's low and the other is high,
And to edit this paper they are determined to
try.
To tell their given names will serve to fill,
One they call George, the other they call Bill;
But to say nothing more of their names and
size,
must now say they are in good enterprise.
l would not feel right unless should say,
Gentlemen and ladies, wherever you stay;
just pay to these editors two of your quarters,
And get good paper for your sons and daugh-
tiers.
must now bring my song TO close,
And when III sing again, nobody knows;
ut if my tongue should forever be still,
The editors Of the Journal have my good will

A Kind word From old Princeton.

A student at Princeton College, n, j..
orders the UNION AND AMERICAN to his
address, and adds in the way of postscript:
As a Tennesseean, and having at heart
the interest of my native Slate, l have
through the liberal sentiment towards the
South, which is prevalent among The mem
bers Of Wing Hall, the pleasure of send for
and adding to the files of our reading room,
the UNION AND AMERICAN, knowing that
1t is a true exponent of the popular senti-
ment of the South to-day; and burning
with love for my much loved society, /
am induced to ask that you give in your
columns notice of Wing Hall. This hall
IS literary in its nature, and numbers in its
catalogue some of the most illustrious men
that have graced this republic. Its aim is the
culture of Friendship, Literature and Nor
atty, and sends forth her sons thoroughly
emoued with the glowing theme. Almost
all Southerners join Wing Hall in prefer
ence to Clio Hall, her rival in literary chiv-
airy. 1t was founded by James Madison,
and is almost IS old as the college itself
Among its most distinguished honorary
members it would be well to mention r. E.
Lee, U. S. Gran, Horace Greeley, Carl
Shurz, etc. IL has a library of twelve
thousand volumes, and filed with the
choicest books"

closing up the business Of legislation so
that an adjournment may be had as early
as possible.
/. The denial reads as follows:
Mr.. Speaker: Oar attention has been
called TO an article in the UNION AND
AMERICAN of the 10Th inst, under the at
tracsive heading, "Your Attention." in
which it is assumed that the opponents of
the funding bill that has been passed by
this General Assembly, have determined to
defeat the assessment and revenue bills
now pending by absentihg themselves
from the House so as TO reduce it below q
quorum. @ F-
With due Difference to the source of said
article, we wish it distinctly understood
that we rescind nothing concerning the &C
ton We took in opposing the funding
scheme, and we want it alike understood
that the articles referred to are unwarran-
ted, so far as we are concerned, they are
ecithOut foundation and entirely false.

THE TIPPING BILL.
Mr.. FriersOn offered the following:
Whereas, 1t appears from inspection that
Senate bill No. 240, "TO provide against
the evils resulting from the sale of intoxi-
eating liquors in the State of Tennessee
passed its third reading in the Senate,
March II, 1873, was sent to the House and
adopted in lieu Of House bill No. 304 on
third reading, and passed third reading
March 10, without ever having been as a
Senate bill in the House, and said bill has
been enrolled and signed by the Speakers
OF the Senate and House of Representatives;
therefore.
Be it resolved by the General Assembly
Of the State of Tennessee, That a Joint
committee of - members of the Senate
and - members of the House, be sp-
pointed to inquire into and report as to the
constitutionality OF the passage of said bill.
Be it further Resolved, That the Cover
nor be respectfully requested to withhold
bis signature to said bill until the constitu-
tonality of the passage Of the same shall be |
inquired into by a joint committee of the |
Two houses of the General Assembly.
Mr.. Houk moved to take up the resolu-
tion at once. Agreed to.
On motion of Mr.. Houk, the resolution |
was laid on the table by a vote of 20 to 16. |

TWENTY-FIVE ladies an gentlemen in
Newark, n. j., assembled in hotel parIor
two or three evenings ago, and formed
society for the promotion ofmarriage. An
alarming condition of affairs was disclosed
by the statement that there are in Newark
three men to every woman. The compe-
tition which naturally ensues renders mar
riage improbable and puts premium on
Irritation. The society are going to work
in sober earnest to mend this condition of
affairs, and an era of official (not to say
oficious) matchmaking is thereby Inaugural
