lures to remark: Superior ability h00' doubt may be more generally found in the sanctums of the city than of the country press, but not more knowledge of @ certain class of facts. The city journal has more room than the country one to present news and facts to the public, but not any more care or positive honesty in their pre- sentation. If the big dailies of the cities would content themselves with printing the news from all the world and confne their comments to such facts and subjects as are known to them and come within the scope of their probable comprehension, they would exhibit less check" and have more public respect; would have 9 narrower range of discussion and wider and better reputation for fair ness, etc. Because a paper is pub lished in a city, or is solidly eStab- lished and makes its owners a prince ly income, don't prove that 1t Is more honestly conducted than the most poverty stricken and isolated country one. City life and experiences do not promote honesty ill the journalist more than in the mere politician, al- though we admit that tLe cowardly and timc-serving politician is led and guided largely by tk5> insolent and , often interruptions city journal,

showed by the POSTAL mark to be mailed on

In answer to the above notice, have
only to say, I dislike to connect religion
and politics, as the above note seems to do,
never have made practice of speaking
evil of any one, who 1 believed to be a
Christian. But on the other hand, if any
one acts as / believe, unchristian like, /
shall in the future as I have done in the

FIRST DAY OF THE TURNER FESTIVAL
Fine PrOcessiOn-ReceptiOna at the Depot
Addresses at Turner Hall.

Fine PrOcession-ReceptiOn at the Depot.
Addresses at Turner Hall.
The demonstration of the Knoxville
Turner'S yesterday was entirely creditable,
The whole procession was within their
own organization. The excellent music
was by their own members. $1,000.
Under charge of Chief Marshal Kissing
er, assisted by Mr.. Haupt, the Turner's
marched to the depot at II A. NJ, to meet
the delegates from abroad. They marched
by the City Hall, where the Mayor and
City Council, in carriages, joined the pro.
cession.
The delegates arriving on the train were
not as many as expected. We understand
another delegation was expected to arrive
on this train at A H., this morning.
Upon the arrival of the train, the process
sion escorted the guests back to Turner
Hall, where welcome address on behalf
of the Knoxville Turner's was delivered
by A. J. Kicks, Esq. ktB
Mayor Rule, on the part of the city au.
thOrities, then extended hearty welcome,
paying high compliment to the thrift
intelligence and patriotism of the German
of the city might, be favorable, and their
stay pleasant. NE M VIII q
After the addresses an extra good lunch
was spread, which was relished by the
travel-stained guests, city, fathers all in
vited guests and not less by the Turner's
themselves.
After lunch, Alderman Henderson and
Senator Richards were called for and made
humorous and appropriate remarks. Sen
atOr Richards said he was a fellow for
eigner and they could say about America
This is the land of our choice" said the
Senator. Americans had no choice about
it. They couldn't help themselves.
After the speeches the guests were es-
corted to their quarters. yz a ~
The grand concert at Staub's Opera
House last night, under the management
of Lookout Mountain Turn Bezirk, was
honored by very good audience and
passed off both pleasantly and creditably.
The programme, which we published in
Sunday mornings issue, consisted of selec-
tions from leading &c caan composers and
a number of waltz = and Introduction
and Rondo" by Pr. Knabe, of this city.
Where all did well it would be invidious to
make distinctions, yet We can not refrain
from mentioning the excellent perform
ances of the Knabe family in the ''Two
Four Part Songs" and that of Miss Gala
her in the ever popular piece of "Home
Sweet Home" (piano) variation by Thai
berg. "a
We understand that the Atlanta
Turner's are expected this morning.
We predict for the grand picnic which
comes off at the Armstrong place to-day,
great success. For further particulars of
the programme for the day and departure
of trains see schedule in another column.

Still Ready.

We feel warranted in saying that the
e1itor of the Press and Herald is still ready
to create the impression abroad that tue
city is extremely filthy by calling alter:
ton to every dirty slop pail and pig sty
that stingy owner wants to force the city
authorities to clean by force of public clam

the Mayor that he is willing to Islander the
city to do it. There are several men who
propose to get their premises well cleaned
and fixed up at the public expense and
they make good use of the Press and Her.

Disappeared-CrOps.

Mr.. Isaac Lindsey from Monroe county,
informs us that Clint Loudermilk, who
was shot in the head by his brother some
time ago, as reported in the CHRONICLE at
the time has disappeared very suddenly
and mysteriously. 1t is thought he left to
escape an arrest for some offense against
the revenue laws. Though his wound was
through the forehead and at the time,
thought fatal, he was i'm a fair way to re-
cover at time of leaving.
Mr.. Lindsay says that the corn crop of
his section looks fine, but is uncommonly
filthy. There has been so much rain that
the farmers cannot pillow sufficiently to
keep it clean. Wheat is half crop. Oats
are pretty fair as is also clover and herds
grass. -ei ~

The first case of cholera in 1854, at this
place, is said to have been that of an old
ly known as "Uncle Jerry Kennedy" His
death was followed by three or four others
in day or two. The largest number of
deaths in one day was thirteen. About
fifty or sixty died during the prevalence of
the disease, if we are correctly informed.
1t came late in the season, beginning about
the last of August, and ending in the lat
